On one hoof, I really liked the episode because Discord returned. On the other hoof, I really hated it because Discord isn't really Discord anymore. I still haven't made up my mind yet.
I understand the message the writers were trying to convey, and I think there is a lot of truth to it, but to use Discord as that character seems a bit... discordish, relative to that character's behavior.
I would be happier if this was Trixie's second episode, and Trixie's second episode was actually Discord's second.
Discord only wanted to wreck havoc, hence his name. He would be the kind of character to use an evil amulet.
Trixie wasn't evil, she just wanted everyone to suck up to her. She would be the one to be "manipulated" by Fluttershy in that way.
