He must have spared Twilight because he knows the Elements won't work without all 6 together. |

Most likely it's because he can't. |

I bet the main reason is that the writers couldn't figure out a way to do it within that short of an episode. It already felt a little rushed.
Don't get me wrong, though, it's probably my new favorite episode. |

^^ I think you're right, otherwise if he had any sense she would have been the first one he'd go for--take down the leader and the rest will fall. He probably can't touch her mind because her power is too strong, so he's just trying to demoralize her and prevent her from interfering by depriving her of her friends.
^^ I would say it felt REALLY rushed... though the "big adventure" episodes of the first season had pacing issues too. I think the fact that the show takes two commercial breaks cuts into their running time in such a way that it's hard to fit in exposition and still get into things happening so they can have a cliffhanger before the first break. |

He can't do shit to Twi. What's gonna happen to her? Become unmagical? |

Losing all of her friends, I guess.
Since friendship is magic. |

My theory is he did it for the fun (and the evilz). He knows that watching her friendships fall apart will destroy her. |

After the introduction of Discord the pacing seemed to slip back into a much slower (better) speed. But yea, everything before that was wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am |

I kind of wish they'd been able to spend the whole (or most of) first episode on exposition like they did the first season and then get on with Discord being a prick in the second episode. But of course, the internets would never stand for it after him being so hyped up. |

Guys, guys, Twilights element is Magic, a.k.a Friendship. he doesn't need to do anything to her. he lets her friends do it for him.
