Twilight changes her mind towards the problem. Anon 12/24/2020 (Thu) 02:13:32 No.7062 del
One could actually claim that this whole episode is filler or lacks a lot of meaning because it skips completely the adult matters.

However, one has to keep in mind this: Twilight and especially the CMC go through the entire process of what Terramar has felt since his parents were divorced. In fact, the conflict between both Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo is exactly the mental process that Terrramar has been trying to digest inside his head, leading him into a permanent state of confusion. This becomes even more frustrating when they get mad because Terramar has been absolutely reminded by that process of trying to come up with a decision of picking one place over the other.

This also applies to Twilight but with a more pleasant take. Nonetheless, she develops a sense of empathy towards Terramar´s point of view after noticing how complicated is to choose to spend time either in Mt Aris or in Seaquestria. She enjoys her stay at first, then she undermines Terramar´s perspective and finally, she understands his conflicted vision. Read this part of the script in order to notice her change of mindset towards the problem while talking with the CMC about the problem:


>Twilight Sparkle: "Whoever said that he had to choose?"
<Apple Bloom: Well, he did.
>Twilight Sparkle: "Hmmm... Maybe Terramar's making it harder than it has to be."
<Ocean Flow: Yoo-hoo! Princess! We're having a seashell-crafting circle. Care to join us?
>Twilight Sparkle:"Actually, we're right in the middle of—"
<Sky Beak: There you are! The flag-folding ceremony's about to begin!
>Twilight Sparkle: "Thank you, really. I've had a great time in both places today, but... [whispering, to Cutie Mark Crusaders] Wow. This must be how Terramar feels all the time."


So, this whole episode recreates the inner conflict that Terramar has been dealing with, the viewer, while not directly getting to see the main actors of this problem in front of the staging, is actually watching a perfect analogy of Terramar´s mind while he had to face the whole process. The episode apparently seems to work like filler but far from reality, the episode wants to convey his inner struggles and recreate the situations that turned out to be the outcome of this process of divorce.
