RD is being flanderized for the plot here. It is what it is.

It was Pinkie who didn't want to prank Fluttershy back in GtBO. Dash was all for it.

Adelor Lyon wrote:So, like, where was Starlight Glimmer this whole episode? I mean, even if she was just in the background behind Twilight and Spike, throwing in an extra Bit to get her own box of cookies, that would've been great. C'mon, writers: Either she's just a plot-device that's "fleshed out" when it's convenient for the immediate story, or she's actually part of the cast. She lives in Twilight's castle after all, and given she ate disgusting muffins for who knows how many years one would think she's got a sweet tooth now. Making up for lost time and all.
Besides: how are kids going to beg their parents for toys of her if they forget she exists?
