1. How did Phalanx survive for so long if he was no longer allowed to feed on love, but didn't embrace his inner Fabulousness along with the other changelings? My guess is that Thorax secretly fed him some of his own love to keep him alive, which added to both Phalanx's resentment AND appreciation.
2. FINALLY we see a species described as being meat-eaters. I remember wishing they had shown a fish market in the Griffin kingdom. I mean, that's something cats and eagles both like to eat, and it's gotta be less traumatic for the kiddies than seeing skinned rabbits hanging there.
3. When the painted changeling complained "WHAT ENEMIES??" my first thought was... "Um... Chrysalis?" Of course, Thorax probably did the right thing by not mentioning that. I doubt the other changelings would feel much better knowing that their one greatest enemy would be the one their self-appointed guard would happily embrace should she return.
4. It was nice seeing Trixie throw a big rock at the whatchamacallit, instead of being completely useless. That said, I still sorta wish she had tried attacking it with fireworks. That's right, Trixie. Embrace your inner Jubilee!
5. Dear God. Trixie and Glimmy's expressions when Thorax mentioned the 'Feelings forum'. "Yeah... that sounds too gay for us. And we're pastel chibi cartoon horses who sweat les-yay shipping fuel."
