Well I don't ship Rarity and Fancy Pants, but still. Fleur's probably busy modelling or something.

oh also i meant to talk about fluttershy's near angerslosion in the starter episodes. Where she restrained herself. NEVER seen fluttershy have to do that before @_@
But what about Fluer de Lis? D:
Or would Ménage à trois be a more appropriate name now?
No! Bad Skree! >:o
One of JJ's best pics was of Fancy pants with rarity and fleur in bed.

Oh god, dat voice... D:
Also, when they kept showing the egg timer, I kept hoping against hope that they booby trapped the float with a bomb... :P
Also, am I the only one who thought that song sounded like the Sugar Rush theme song from Wreck-It Ralph?

The episode was... fine. I liked the CMCs in it, but I hated the aesop.
It was clear that Babs was insecure, which on its own is fine, but I
hate
the cycle of revenge moral. Being bullied does
not
result in becoming a bully, and saying that it does just helps give bullies more excuses. It's good that they acknowledged unintentional bullying, but still. I don't think it was handled terribly well.

I felt a great disturbance in the force, as if millions of fanfics of flightless Scootaloo suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly negated by canon.

I too had my issues with the moral of this episode.
Yeah, she was being bullied, and by extention she was being a bully for it. But she teams up and pretty much LEADS the bullies in her new town in order to keep from being bullied? Yes, if she didn't she would be as much of a target as the CMC, but it seems that she didn't have anyone really supporting her - even her sister is hinted at not knowing about it - the way the CMC wanted to from the moment they met her. And was it really that bad the CMC wanted to get back at her for being a bully? They weren't even tormenting her like she was then; they were just pulling off a rather elaborate (if someone too elaborate for the outcome) prank in order to get back at her).
All in all, I was dissapointed when I first saw it would be a CMC episode, and the moral knot the episode left me with (having been bullied a lot in early middle school) didn't help it all that much.
On the bright side;
we now have the most adorable Sweetie Belle moment EVAH
!

OH YEAH! I forgot about that! That and Sweetie Belle's horn glowing with magic at the start of the episode! It's a really nice subtle touch at seeing how well the two are maturing into their respectice races' abilities...
Aaaand then there's Earth Pony Applebloom; The Lesser Creature.
Potentially a doublepost, but I'm too lazy to edit.

It didn't seem like Scootaloo was flying to me, just sort of buzzing/hovering like she normally does.
And no, I don't think it was bad that the CMCs wanted to get back on her. I was calling for them to douse her in gasoline about halfway through the episode.

It wasn't so much flying, but it's clear she can hold herself in the air now. Remeber Ponyville Confidential? Well, look at her slow descent by Applebloom at the train station. That's some real headway, in my opinion.

It wasn't a harmless prank, it
was
pretty malicious. I'd have rather seen a moral about the CMCs standing up for themselves and then possibly having Babs learn her mistake, or have Babs realise on her own (without the CMCs having to do so on her behalf) that she had become a bully herself. Basically, I hate the fact that there were no consequences or any real form of introspection from Babs that caused her to change her behaviour at the end.

Oh! I just realized there was no letter to princess this episode, odd.
That's 'cause, after the Flim Flam episode, all mail Celestia get's from AJ's house is instantly marked as Spam.

Adorable.
Edit: Something I just realized (maybe).
Alright, I may be stretching it here, but think about this.
I noticed that Babs had some unusual coloring. She's one of the only ponies I've ever seen with such an orange-brown coat. Why?
Well, Applebloom has red hair and a yellow coat, rather like the
outside and inside of an apple
,
respectively
.
Babs has the same red hair, like the outside, but a dark orange-brown coat, which, incidentally, is the
color an apple turns when it is bruised
. A bad apple.
Edit #2: Oh, and
LAWL
