That wasn’t a bad episode, kind of annoyed we didn’t get to see either place mentioned, especially the Power Ponies convention. It was nice to see Gabby again, however.
9x17: Good one. The retirement is still very iffy to me.
9x18: Good one. Interesting concept and some interesting insights.
9x19: Rarity was a little unusal in this one. Such a basic lesson should have been learned by now? Lots of faces and interesting to se what they were doing together. Much pony trivia. It all ended well so overall ok.
As a Rarity fan, of course I know Rarity generosity and reciprocal love with Spike was always absent. However The good thing its she knew a lot about his interest (Gems and power ponies comics). In general was a good thing Rarity offered apoligies cause she wanted 100% Spike time. A good thing the the final Sparity episode, despite I wanted more a romantic resolution. 8/10.
