I actually loved this past episode. I will admit those moments were a tad out of character (though they work better when you realize the three girls were operating independently and without knowing the others were in on it. They also wisely left Applejack out of the proceedings. Plus, as the ending of the episode shows, ponies in general just seem to have poor self control when it comes to sweets), but the overall comedy that comes from it being a Pinkie episode more than made up for it. The three flashbacks Pinkie has when she's accusing the other bakers -the vaudeville, the Bond, and the ninja- were pretty much brilliant. Plus the entire mystery section was great, Sherlock hats and all. This one will probably end up in my Top 10 for the show.
Down to the wire now, though. Just one two-part season finale away from months and months of no new ponies (the horror).
