Alrighty, ladies and gents, if ya wanna know my two cents on the topic of 'Redemption' then settle on down and lend me your ears. The Season 9 finale of MLP left my eyebrow raised quite extensively, yet also satisfied me, too. I'm glad that the trio didn't get the silly, last minute redemption that LOTS of kid show villains get, but at the same time I found one thing a touch confusing: all three of them (Cozy Glow, Tirek, and Chrysalis) were on the verge of redemption. Their arcs and development with each other was leaning towards an actually satisfying redemption story. So… when they were turned to stone I wasn't upset or anything, but I was also puzzled.
