This episode was the sixth written by Nicole Dubuc. Her previous episodes were Shadow Play Parts 1 & 2, School Daze Parts 1 & 2 and Marks for Effort. This episode was storyboarded by Kaylea Chard (who has been boarding for the show since the Season 3 premiere) and Nicole Wang (who has been boarding for the show since the seventh episode). In this episode Twilight puts Starlight in charge of the school, however Discord tries to sabotage her time in charge.
This is a very funny episode. The humor hits completely. Discord's choices for subsite teachers were especially hilarious. I especially love the scene with Iron Will. After not liking the episode he first appeared in I really like the uses of this character afterward. Also hilarious was Discord and Trixie's scene together. They are just as good together here as they were in To Where and Back Again. I am glad they are continuing this rivalry.
The only complaint I have is that Discord acting this mean here, kind of takes away from the lessons he learned in previous episodes. Still on its own this episode is a delight.
