That episode was lousy. If anything shows the map episodes are poor design, it's this one. It was predictable and just felt like a cookie cutter plot that's been done a thousand times. Hell my initial thought was that it looked very similar to that old Veggie Tales episode where they were throwing things at each other from the hills. It was just a step beneath bland, it was something overdone and lacked anything really of note for it. It didn't even feel like a friendship problem or anything, it felt like 19 minutes of watching a bunch of hicks throw things at each other while Twilight fails to get them to work together until Fluttershy talks about what happened. How did both of them together make a contribution? All in all, definitely not worth seeing this one again.
