tfw we’ll probably never see Babs again  

I agree that she is just young, and as we were young at a time, too, we probably made mistakes we regret. Babs is now one of my favorite outside the mane cast and CMC. I do wish that we would see more of her, as in the whole time she was in ponyville, it sounded like it was between a week, and just weeks.

She’s a foal. Foals lack perspective on how insignificant their problems are, and overreact. Foals make mistakes. She learned from hers. As Whirlybird pointed out, she’s a better character for it than most of the fan-favorite antagonists. I can forgive her. If the CMCs can, I definitely can.

V What about Luna?

This is also the only episode where a character that’s an antagonist actually makes amends with the protagonists and they actually becomes friends. unlike Trixie, Gilda, or any other non-villain antagonist so far.

D’aww…

for a split second, I thought I saw a pokehidden pony

@JP  
You don’t like the episode as a whole and your saying one character isn’t redeemed..  
That makes no sense.

@Prof.NightJack
 
Her reasons are irrelevant. The entire episode is painful to me. It is the first FiM episode that I don’t genuinely like.

I liked this reaction. Made it pretty clear that being a blank flank was a pretty sore spot for her.
 
It’s too bad she wasn’t around when the Crusaders formed. Things could’ve been different.

@Verbose  
It’s more justified then bully for just not liking someone, what seems to be the reason for most bullies in cartoons.  
And I said it was a legitimate reason not that it was right.

My typing is just getting worse and worse.

@Nightjack
 
She had a valid reason, but no excuse. Even if you’re being bullied elsewhere, then trying to become a bully to prevent yourself from beiing bullied somewhere else isn’t right.
 
So I think we all see here reasoning behind that, but I don’t think it was justified at all.
 
 
All that aside, I thought that the episode handled the whole bullying issue well. It didn’t feel like “that episode” where you have to have the actors give out a hotline number at the end of the episode.

You know, she IS pretty cute when she’s not being a total jerkass.

COVER YOUR ASS

@JP  
Done’t redeem her for what, having a legitimate reason to act the way she did?

Babs is best Blank Flank.

Yes it does, quit lying to yourself.

That’s a cute little tail flip, but it doesn’t redeem her.

Those eyes. That’s pretty adorable. C:

that is so cute

Awesome episode.
