Looks like I was correct in my suspicion that this would be a Hitch focused episode, at least partially. In that regard, it was alright, although I think the humor was lacking again this time around. Perhaps kids would find this funny, but I honestly find Izzy being trapped in a box a lot more annoying than amusing. Nothing terrible, and certainly not the worst MLP has ever offered, but nothing that jives with me either. Still, I am glad they are willing to give Hitch some attention as well; even though this is a property aimed at young girls, I actually think Spike was among the best characters in FiM, and if they play their cards right, Hitch could very well be among the best this generation as well.

I can see a lot of fics giving Izzy claustrophobia due to her experiences with the unicorn traps

[Scilla Bell 103]

Oh I think this one is my favorite so far for the comedic factor. Izzy levitating the box got a chuckle out of me, but the others just tying a rope to try and make the tour work? That actually made me scream! It also had a really good lesson too. I'd love more of this in the future.

This episode was kind of eh. And it left me wondering: Who's going to fix for the damage that Izzy made?

Pipp is so artistic! Rarity would be proud.

I didn't know the traps could lift, I thought they were adhered to the floor, and that's where the closing flaps would come from...

Whatever, not gonna think about it.

Cute episode though!

Surprised they missed one of those traps only to end up missing another one at the end. Oh, and I loved seeing the very obvious Transformers reference.

I love how part of my mind thought this was going to be an episode about Izzy doing an unboxing video from the title before I realized it's more of a Hitch episode about Izzy's boxsona. 

An episode about my two favorite characters definitely did not disappoint, what a shocker. Izzy amused me more than she did in Nightmare Roommate (that Spongebob reference was perfect), and intrigued me too with her believing she was literally a box.  It's so nice too how much Hitch just wanted every pony to enjoy the tour, funny how his two spotlight moments have both been in episodes about Izzy too.

Pretty hilarious, but one thing bothers me - Izzy is just too large, it looks really distracting, but other than that I loved the episode!

This episode was pretty cute and charming! I just wonder how Izzy managed to float over the balcony then decide to fall at the worst time. She could’ve, you know, just kept floating!
