Fluttershy's thought process needed explaining to the audience, and it needed to be vocalized so that the other characters could explain that those thoughts aren't correct and whap them with a newspaper. The only other alternative way of doing this would have been for Fluttershy to vocalize those words herself, but that might have confused kids into thinking the rest were admonishing her instead of that thought process.

I probably would have dialed it back but I'm probably a gutless storyteller too. That and I thought OC dad was a little too much, the filly was cute as all get out so that makes up for that. 8.9/10.

She has a dog cutie mark, but a pony based off of I guess a hyper-moving bird? Doesn't sound too dog-friendly...

Oh Fluts... your passionate improvisations on the lyrics just don't work for lip-synching...
