Mean spirited knighthood
djangorflores20 September 2021
When it comes to knights and a princess who deserves a different position in royalty, this can be quite a takeover over knighthood. Eventually, this could make brave others look bad because of a wannabe.

Throughout the episode, Princess Flame wanted to become a knight, but her father wouldn't let her. This rejection led Flame to form her squad, The Knightresses of the round table and to make Squire Flicker a knightress, in which he had to cross dress to resemble a princess. Sir Loungelot accidentally fell in love with Flicker, knowing that he was dressed up as a princess knight and Loungelot was tracking down someone to love. Sir Loungelot could not stop following Flicker, which made him uncomfortable, and Flicker had to trick Loungelot to think that there was a green knight who was in love with Flicker so that they could be away from each other. All the hard work that Flicker and Flame had done for their community led to the dragon knights to resign. The cause of the resignation was mean-spirited given that both young dragons were taking jobs from the knights without their permission, leaving no responsibilities for knights. But once Count Geoffrey stepped in to make things worse, that was when Flame and Flicker had to round up the knights to set things right. That was what happened in the episode and why it was given a bad plot to begin with. However, that's not all that was wrong with the episode, there were a couple of other minor issues involved.

Other issues in the episode involve a chant from four damsels, fire burping from Sir Hotbreath, Sir Blaze's temper, and Sir Loungelot's fear of small spiders for the second time. The chant from the four damsels and them being scared of giant squirrels was irritating and repetitive, especially when they all said "Eek! Eek!" and "D. I. D. U.", which was an acronym of the Damsels in Distress Union that Flame proposed. For Hotbreath must've been having a terrible fire burping problem throughout the scenes that he was in because he did it more than usual, even though it was part of his character. As for Sir Blaze's temper, whenever Blaze gets angry, he speaks very fast and loud to the point that almost no one can understand what he is saying during the first scene he was in. For Loungelot's spider fear, he can't seem to get over it.

Overall, the episode feels quite mean spirited to others and the title of the episode sounds like it rather focuses on another group of knights or knightresses than see Princess Flame take a much different position than just a princess and have Flicker join her clan temporarily.
