My Little Portal: Friendship is Magic. "MMMystery in the Friendship Express" Review


I've been doing these episode reviews for such a long time, that I was starting to fear not knowing how to start an intro to the next one without making it sound forced or cheesy. As the season progressed I was running out of themes and things to talk about that would later on segue seamlessly into the actual review of the episode. I talked about politics, health, education, entertainment, but I never had the chance to talk about job situation. As I am typing this right now I am feeling super tired after a hard day at work and by the time you are reading these lines for the first time I will be working the night shift. so you can see I totally sympathise with poor Pinkie Pie in this episode. Sadly for me, the place where I work is not nearly as interesting as a train full of sweet desserts. But then again, that's why we watch ponies, to evade into a fantasy land where cities made out of doughnuts exist. Into the review!


Oh this TL;DR. It's just so, so delicious. Just look at it. It has three layers of chocolate creme, with spongy cake and frosting, crowned by a mousse made out of apples and shaped like little ponies. There are cherries on the top, and the icing is shaped like letters. The letters say that this episode is fantastic in Friendship is Magic standards, and that it's without a doubt one of the best of the season. Huh, I wonder how could they cram so much into one cake. If you want to find out you better start eating-uhm, I mean reading.


So the episode starts (how many times have I said this already? Forty?) with Pinkie Pie witnessing what the Cakes have created for the dessert baking competition in Canterlot. A three stories cake made out of marzipan, mascarpone and meringue. I had to look on Wikipedia what some of those ingredients are. Even though I love my desserts consistent I am not cooking savvy. Regardless of ingredients the cake looks delicious worthy of the nightmares of diabetics all over the world, and more unstable than the Tower of Pisa. So when it comes to transporting it to the train things get complicated. At first Big Macintosh is the only one carrying the cake, but things get too unstable and so they call Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash for some pegassistance (insert rim-shot here). Even their help is not enough to make the Cakes feel safe about their creation, so they call Twilight to cast a shield spell around it. This is the third time we've seen Twilight cast a spell of this nature in the show (the first one being Return of Harmony part 2, and the second Ponyville Confidential). But the Mane Six is a team, and there is no team without some help from AJ and Rarity, who hold a trampoline right beside the cake in case it falls. Yeah, because there is nothing better to save a cake that is falling than an elastic surface that will send it into the opposite direction with a splat on the floor. Whatever, it does look hilarious, especially when they cut to Mister Cake having a panic attack and hyperventilating.

After that, and now inside the Orient-I mean Canterlot Express, we are presented to the three one shot characters of the episode, who are all chefs that carry their own desserts to the Canterlot Dessert Competition. The first one is a griffin with a thick french accent called Gustav Le Grand who might as well have a banner over his head saying "I'm the villain, ssshhh". His dessert is a mountain of the most delicious eclairs (again, I had to wiki that one, we don't call them like that in Spain). The second one is a returning character from Season 1, Pony Joe! Wait, in this episode he is called Doughnut Joe, so now he is called like his store. That is weird, especially considering that Amy Keating Rogers wrote both episodes with this character, but who cares!? It's Doughnut Joe and I am so happy to see him coming back. His dessert is the most awesome thing in the surface of the planet and I am so not kidding here. He made an entire city model with doughnuts and called it "Doughnutopia". That is sweet, and I don't even care about the pun I just made. The third and last one is a mule called Mulia Mild who doesn't really have much to herself. Yeah, I mean we can say a couple of things about Gustav the Griffin and Doughnut "Pony" Joe, but Mulia Mild's character only seems to have her dessert entry for a character trait. She has a chocolate mousse shaped like a moose, and it doesn't matter how many times I slap myself, that pun is still more painful. Get used to it folks because this episode is full of them. I am not complaining, I love puns! After we are introduced to the players it's time to set up the conflict as Pinkie Pie confronts the other three and overdoes her forwardness. Being the paranoid that she naturally is she sets up a night watch over the cake to make sure nothing happens to it. What follows is probably one hell of a difficult night for Pinkie. She thinks she sees a shadow running away from her, but when she chases it, it's gone. She runs away after another shadow but when she finally gets to it, it's just the train's conductor. When she gets back to the car where the cake is all the curtains fall sinking the place into darkness, but when she pulls them back up there doesn't seem to be anyone there. After such a night of literal zig-zagging from one side to another, Pinkie Pie finally falls asleep, only to wake up to a terrible realisation.

The filling is crème brûlée. Crème brûlée!!!
The cake has been mutilated.

Wow, actually just typing that sentence is rather disturbing. How can you mutilate a cake? That's sick! I will never be able to cut a slice of cake again without thinking on the agonising silent shrieks it makes. Those poor cakes. But they are not important to Pinkie, the only important cake to her is the one that just got maimed (I keep making it worse) and she is determined to find who did it. Or more like "Who done it". It's at this point of the episode when all the characters put on their lampshades and start to mock and parody mystery novels tropes and cliches. As much as this is fun to watch, the best chunk of this episode happens during the next two minutes when we dive again into Pinkie's mind as we are presented to her impossible theories about the assault. You know how she thinks in felt? Well, she can also think in movies too. When accusing Gustav the Griffin she warps us into an old timey silent film where Gustav is Dick Dastardly, ties her to a train track and the old grainy filter is up to eleven. But it doesn't end there, oh no. When accusing Doughnut Joe we are transported into-JAMES BOND!? James Bond. It's James Bond! Oh sorry I mean, the name is Joe, Pony Joe. I don't know how loud I screamed when I saw that parody, because James Bond is one of my favourite things in the World and I loved this. From the jam instead of blood part to the ending with him surrounded by mares. If there needs to be a spin-off of something from Friendship is Magic it must be that. Forget about Daring Do, there needs to be a "Pony Joe: Mysterious Spy Stallion". But wait! It doesn't end there! When accusing Mulia Mild, the forgettable mule, we warp into Samurai Jack! No, seriously, it is Samurai Jack, from the camera angles to the music and the editing. It was at this part when I decided that I didn't care how good or bad was the rest of the episode. That segment made it stand out above the average bar.

Of course, none of Pinkie's accusations are useful in finding the culprit. Pinkie is baffled because she doesn't understand why the food thief ate just from the big cake and left the other desserts unscathed. It's mere seconds after she finishes talking when the train enters in a tunnel, a pointless shriek of terror is heard followed by munching noises, and when they come out of the other end all the other desserts have been devoured. With her hooves full, Pinkie Pie gives up and passes the investigating duties to Twilight, who has a much better and more analytical mind about the whole thing and so sets up to discover who did it the CSI way-sunglasses not included. She asks Pinkie to remember everything that happened yesterday night and to go over her steps. As they go car through car Twilight starts collecting evidences, traces of the thief that she neatly saves inside envelopes. That was a good detail, since that's how real investigators work. After she has gathered enough evidence she asks all of the passengers to meet up at the diner car where she will unfold who did it. It turns out that it wasn't just one thief, it was three of them. Rainbow Dash was the shadow that crossed through the train at first, as she left a blue feather behind in the last car. Fluttershy was the second one, who disguised herself as the conductor and has left a hair in the hat. Rarity was the last one, who pulled down the curtains of the car to make everything dark, and left one of her eyelashes on the painting. The three of them bit off a piece of the cake, and with regretful looks in their faces they apologise to Pinkie. However that doesn't explain who ate the other desserts. Pinkie grabs her hat and a magnifying glass, and so starts searching for clues. In a rather impromptu conclusion she finds out that the other bakers ate the other desserts! Doughnut Joe ate the eclairs; Gustav the Griffin ate the mousse; and Mulia ate the doughnuts. And why would they do that? To ruin each others' desserts and then cash in the money of the insurance company? Nope, they just looked so delicious they couldn't resist the temptation.

No time to waste! Somebody play me out with a pianola!
With the mystery solved there is now the problem of having no desserts for the competition. However Pinkie is the queen of improvisation and so, with the help of the other chefs, they all prepare a dessert out of the remains of the other desserts. I have to admit though, for a dish that is basically made out of left overs it does look kind of tasty. The judges like its bizarreness so much they give it the first prize. Princess Celestia is saved a bite, and Pinkie Pie gobbles the whole thing in one single bite. Not hungry enough, she bites us out of the episode and into the title credits.

So that was "MMMystery at the Friendship Express", and what do I think of it? Well, there are things I loved of it and there are things I didn't really like of it at all. Let's start with the things I didn't like at all, and even though they are not big ones they really nag at me quite a bit. If you know me you might already know what it is that I didn't like at all, and that is the way Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Rarity act in this episode. I am not going to call out of character behaviour because they are not my characters and so I really don't have anything to do with what they can do and what they can't do, but their behavior was a bit left field. Well okay, I take it back, Rainbow Dash would have totally done that, and she did. She can be as loyal as she can, but she will eat your cake if she finds it tasty. I bet she stole the chocolate milk out of other fillies when she was in high school. Fluttershy struck me as bizarre. I was suspecting her the most when I saw the shadow, but then again it's Fluttershy. Why would she do such a thing? I guess this is a side effect of that whole indoctrination-I mean, assertiveness training she's been going through lately. But the one that really gets to me is Rarity. I mean, why would she do that? And to top it all off, her eyelashes aren't natural. This isn't really a surprise, but I was looking at her like a disappointed father. What a let down Rarity, what a let down. I expected better from you, young filly. Now go to your bedroom and think on what you've done. But really, put yourself in their place. I put myself in their place and I would've eaten the whole thing, not just one miserable bite! Even though all turns out well and they apologise I can't shake off the feeling that this is the last we will see of them in a slice of life episode before the season finale. If we were to judge their characters based on this episode I would say they are a bunch of jerks for ruining Pinkie's cake. Okay, what else didn't I like? I didn't like how the episode handled Applejack. Yeah, I bet you forgot she was in it as well, didn't you? Twilight and Pinkie carry most of the weight, and when the culprits are uncovered they also get a lot of the spotlight, but besides a couple of lines at the very beginning Applejack is basically absent the rest of the episode. You could write her character off and it would've been the same. As a character I grew fond to like, it felt like a waste from the writing staff not to use her more. However, think about what could have happened if Applejack was one of the ponies who ate from the cake. The episode would've lasted five minutes. She would be confessing she did it within seconds. It's hard to be the element of honesty. Finally, I already mentioned how much I find the character of Mulia Mild boring, and if I had to use a better name for her she would be Mulia Dull. She's nothing but a blank slate and doesn't seem to have any charisma whatsoever. I really don't know what happened there, but at least to me she leaves no impact at all; unless we count those jaggy wrinkles. I do not want. I do not want at all.

Okay, I bitched and moaned enough about this episode. What did I like? Well, that whole parody segment is just perfect. It's genius beyond belief and it totally sells me on the episode. I think it's a really great idea to provide the audience with the means to understand how Pinkie Pie's mind works. She is as random in her thoughts as she is in her behaviour. She lives in her fantasy world where griffins happen to be moustache twirling evil boogie men, where laser grids exist and where mules can pull out a katana and slice a cake in the blink of an eye. I love the three segments but out of all of them my favourite one is the James Bond one. I mean, it's James Bond! There is nothing more awesome than that. The doughnut as the sight of the cannon, the jam instead of blood, the Q-watch, the sleeping gas, the mares, how cool he looks in a tuxedo; there are just too many things not to like. I also really liked the character of Gustav. It's been literally forty five episodes since the last time we saw a griffin in the show, and seeing one again makes me happy, especially such a good and well written one. He does look like Dick Dastardly, but then he turns out to be a good guy. Awesome trope, uhm, subversion? Inversion? Played with? I don't know, I don't speak TvTropeian. Having Doughnut Joe returning was a big surprise. I really like this character, and seeing more of him in an episode  that stars him in a James Bond parody is just too much. Regardless of the things I didn't like, I really liked the writing in here. Yeah, yeah, that scene at the end didn't make much sense and the character of Mulia is hollow, but those are not strong enough to break the great writing. Amy Keating Rogers plays a rather compelling Agatha Christie in here with classic set ups and narrative structure that works really well. Her distinctive style between the slapstick and the preachy comedy fits the episode's theme like a glove. I wonder if she is a fan of Poirot herself. I should ask her if somebody hasn't already. Also, I think it begs to mention this before ending the review, and this is a shout out to what my friend said when we were watching the episode. This is food heaven. Okay, he didn't say it that way, but this episode made him hungry with a vengeance. He said it was starting to feel like a chapter of "Redwall", and I can totally see why. I went to the kitchen and had some milk and chocolate cookies after the episode finished. If you are going to watch this make sure you have something to eat next to you. Or at least money to go to the bakery to buy a cake. I loved Rarity with her hair over her face. She looked so classy, well let me rephrase that, classier than usual. When she confesses that her eyelashes are fake it's both hilarious and sad. I find it very funny that Pinkie and Twilight kept exchanging hats the entire time, with a constant lamp shading of investigator and assistant. The constant playing this show makes on already established cliches is further proof that it wants to treat its target audience like intelligent people. When a show for kids does that, you gotta respect that.

Mmmh, just as I thought. This is a cake.
All and all, this episode is great. It's deliciously funny, fun and entertaining. The one shot characters are surely going to leave a mark in the community. Hopefully someone will take on the idea of Doughnut Joe working as a baker in the morning and as a secret agent at Celestia's Secret Service during the night. It had really memorable moments. And the moral was actually really good. The only part that saddens me is that, probably, this is Amy Keating Rogers' last episode of the series. I don't know if you guys remember that she left the team before the start of Season 3, and that she didn't write anything after the end of Season 2. She helped create some of the best moments this show has ever had, from apple-bucking to "Smile, Smile, Smile", going through FlutterGuy, Zecora, The running of the leaves, and Applebloom speaking french. And to tell you the truth, she couldn't leave with a better episode.

- Defining Moment: Pinkie Pie's theories about how the other three bakers ruined her cake. Three different types of movies in three minutes. This isn't just defining of the episode, it's defining of the entire series.

- Do-not-want Moment: Mulia's wrinkly wrinkles. No, just...just no, ew, no.

- Moral: Never jump to conclusions until you have enough evidence, since it can hurt other people's feelings and it will make you look like an ass.

  1. One thing I wanted to mention is that the envelope that Twilight caries when collecting evidences is the same type of envelope found in the Clue game. And she collected three types of evidence, just like in the game.

    They all did it! Except for me. I shot Mr. Body.

  2. Wait, didn't you know that Rarity had fake eyelashes since The Best Night Ever, because in that episode, we see that she wore fake eyelashes during the beginning of the episode.

    Anyways, this episode was pretty great. It might not be as great as some Season 2 episodes like Lesson Zero, Sweet and Elite, A Friend in Deed and Hurricane Fluttershy, but it was enjoyable.

    1. I didn't remember until I read your comment that she actually uses fake eyelashes. I don't know how to feel about that however. I wonder how Rarity looks like without all that make up on her.

  3. I would just like to mention that Mulia Mild's character's purpose was to be a parody character of Julia Child (thus Mulia Mild...huh!?), that is why the character may or may not have fallen flat, although admittently the other bakers seemed equally flat to me.

  4. Do you have any idea why Amy Rogers would leave after season 2? I also read who will be in charge of scenarios in season 3 somewhere and it saddens me to know that that I didn't see Charlotte Fullerton there too. Meghan McCarthy will be head story editor instead of Rob Renzetti now and Dave Polsky whose episode I "not-so-much" liked in season 1 will return. And I also read that they're hiring some new writers for season 3..again, which isn't too good usually unless they're lucky to find a great one suddenly.

    1. Yeah, she left because of creative differences with the team. That's what I read.

      Of the original writing staff the only ones left are Cindy Morrow, M.A. Larson and Dave Polsky. I am really looking forward to a Dave Polsky episode, even if he wrote "Over a Barrell" I have the feeling he still have a punch of talent in him.

      I think Megan McCarthy is a worthy successor to Rob Renzetti. She wrote such great episodes like "Party of One", "Lesson Zero", "Sweet and Elite" and "Hearts and hooves day", so she knows how to handle narrative and character development while keeping it in good rhythm.

      We only have 13 episodes in Season 3. Let's see how they go. Depending on our reaction to these episodes the series will continue or it won't. We have a big responsibility in our hands. We better not screw up.

    2. Wait... 13 episodes in season 3? That's all?

      Delete
    3. I wouldn't call Dave Polsky "original" writing staff, he doesn't belong with everyone else for me the same way as A.K. Rogers or Fullerton did. Because he was present only in season 1 and wrote merely 2 weak episodes, one of which "Pinkie Keen" I hate with passion and consider the worst in all 2 seasons. I stated reasons why I hate it so much on IMDB discussion boards here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1751105/board/flat/194384321?p=2

      Now, why would they all leave the show like that when it's at its peak of popularity and general recognition as one of the best ever? This pisses me off. And why no more Fullerton episodes? She wrote some really great ones and then she also leaves? I'd say if Cindy Morrow leaves the show at some point too it would be a real emergency and disaster. M.A. Larson is good but he was weaker in writing for season 2.

      Instead of Mr. Polsky I'd like to see Chris Savino return in season 3...he was a good writer in season 1 at least for me even with only 2 episodes he shone.

      Delete
    4. Here you can find out a bit more on where A.K. Rogers went to instead of writing for the 3rd season as well as some cool stuff on how she worked on the show. Personally I'm disappointed she would leave MLP for a job of story editor in...Care Bears? So that's a better job for her? What the buck...

    5. Ah, folk are just too hard on Dave Polsky! ...I bet if the "aesop" were different in 'Feeling Pinkie Keen' it would be significantly more popular. I'm still not entirely sure what's so bad about 'Over a Barrel'. Anyone remember how funny that episode was? The banter on the train? The 'horses drawing horse drawn carriages? Pinkie's "terrible" song?

      If we are to judge eps purely on the strength of their message, where does that leave 'Luna Eclipsed' with it's near-nonsensical letter to the Princess?

      Anyhoo, James, your reviews are fabulous, and I make sure to check them out every week!

      Delete
    6. Oh actually I judged Pinkie Keen not because of its message at all, but because of everything else. Just read what I told about it in IMDB thread.
      Over a Barrel surely was better, it could rather good episode if the ending wasn't so silly.

  5. Where do you got that information and any idea if Merriwether Williams left MLP in Season 3?

    1. We were told this in 2011, around September I think.

      The staff has changed, and the story editor is not the same. Plus, they brought in new writers, and Hasbro wants to make sure if the reply of the audience is as possitive. If it's not, we may lose this show and Hasbro will cancel it.

      As for MW leaving in Season 3, why do you ask? I think she's an okay writer.

  6. A very good episode, not the best from Amy Keating Rogers, but she will leave in a very good note from MLP with this episode. This episode have everything we were looking for: Sherlock Holmes, James Bond and Fucking Ninjas. This episode was like Pinkie's cake. Extremely delicious but unstable. This is because the flow of the episode was pretty simplistic with some twists and fell flat at the end (Pun intended although bad); and as a man who also read and watched a lot of mystery novels and shows and I already saw a lot of what happened in this episode and I already knew it was going to be Rainbow the culprit, but I couldn't even suspect that Rarity and Fluttershy would be involved. Some guys noticed Rarity change her mane to cover her eye as a clue, but I only could notice how cool she looked with that style.
    The only thing I regret from this episode is that is the last one from Amy and I was looking for her to write the season finale, but at least we still have Ma Larson to write the two parter episode. He wrote a Lauren Faust's episode. (The return of harmony). Don't forget to answer the question I made early please.

  7. Okay, speaking as a convinced, dyed-in-the-wool Agatha Christie fan, I absolutely loved this episode. I'll agree that the behaviour of Fluttershy and Rarity seemed just a little off, but then again, you have to remember the reactions they showed to Pinkie's description of the cake (which, for the record, wouldn't have tempted me in the slightest, because I hate, hate, hate meringues. Eww). It seems that Pinkie, apart from everything else, is a sending empath now, causing lust and hunger in others (wow, that sounds Rule 34-ish, doesn't it?), as also shown with the other bakers. Also, Fluttershy is strange; Rarity is not. She is the greedy one - she tries to hide it, but there's a reason one of the Pony Polka videos could set Kanye West's "Gold Digger" to scenes with her and not seem completely off. She has that side to her (not just under Discord's influence; we also saw it in "Dragonshy"), and Pinkie managed to bring it out. Way to go, little Pinkamena.

    Pinkie's fantasy sequences were simply brilliant - the Dastardly Whiplash, James Bond and Ninja/Mission Impossible parodies just rocked. And Twilight hunting for clues? Just great. Combine that with a lesson that actually felt organic and meshed with the feel of the episode (unlike some other episodes I won't mention in this context...), and you got one of the season's highlights. This is what MLP:FiM is about - conveying lessons in good fun, while offering something for everyone watching - how many kids will recognize that Bond parody? Or the Dastardly Whiplash, for that matter?

    A last aside: This episode again proves that Pinkie works best when she plays off others - or rather, when others play off her. I'll admit I didn't go into this episode with the highest of expectations due to it being Pinkie-centric, but it worked brilliantly.

  8. Let us know if you ever make an MLP "Clue" game!

  9. I must say I agree with most of this. I preferred the Dick Dastardly over the James Bond segment, and Mulias wrinkles didn't ruin anything for me.

    As for Applejack, true. She didn't do much, but it would have been strange to leave her behind on the train station when everyone else could come with Pinkie.

  10. Very complete review and I liked the chart at the end summing it all up. Maybe they'll work into the final a good reason for them all to come together. Lately there have been a bunch of episodes that focused on the interactions of just one or two of the 6 at a time.

  12. To me, the episode was much like the MMM cake, big and flashy and great tasting, but ultimately leaving the eater wanting something more. The episode had an interesting premise, amusing, if not bizarre characters, and the great parodies were the sweet icing to the cake. Unfortunately, misused characters, a rushed ending, and a forced moral left any nutritional value out of this cake.

    I guess I have to be "that guy" this time and disagree with the majority. As much as I loved the sweet stuff (I haven't laughed so hard at a show in months as I did when Pinkie starting throwing around wild accusations and dove us into parody land) I felt this episode ultimately lacking in what I look forward to most from the show. Considering how the show has been able to balance comedy, character development, and a good moral for most of its run, this episode felt unfilling. Pardon the puns.

    1. Oh man, you almost copy my own review I posted here, although your puns are much better than mine. I should have included the lack of nutritional value in this episode with respect the misused characters, and rushed ending, but I really liked the moral and the episode did his job carrying the moral although a little unsatisfactorily.

  13. "She can be as loyal as she can, but she will eat your cake if she finds it tasty." Can we make this a thing? Like an in-joke or an innuendo? I just found that way funnier than I should have.

  14. I'm totally stalking you blog in anticipation of your review of the finale xD Of course since it was two whole episodes, I know it probably takes double the time.

    Anyways, I totally agree with you - the best moments of these series come with the movie times. The silent movie, James Bond, ninja/samurai jack type theme were great and hilarious. I was giggling and squealing the entire time xD Most references this show has go right over my head, actually, so it was nice to have some stuff I actually got.

    But that was practically the only thing. The rest of this episode felt weak, and especially thanks to it's moral. It was a good lesson, don't get me wrong - not jumping to conclusions is a very important thing to know, but so is stealing is wrong and their has been a LOT of theft in this series and no real moral for it. I mean we've got:
    -Applebloom stealing Zecora's plant petals
    -Rainbow stealing a book from the library
    -Twilight trying to break in a steal scrolls (from a library she was quite welcome in that silly pony)
    -Sweetie Bell stealing Rarity's diary
    -and now EVERY PONY STEALING FOOD.
    Fluttershy, Rainbow, Rarity and the three cooks all should of learned a lesson too. Hell, they barely even APOLOGIZED they just sort of excused their behavior. 'Oh, but pinkie made it sound SO good...' not 'I'm sorry, I did something very wrong.'
    It was kind of disappointing really.
