Moondancer's plan is to get Pinkie Pie to put her money directly into the bank! So that means we get to see Rachel again (because why the heck would we go to a different bank?) It has little gags such as Pinkie having to read lines to know what to say. As well an ongoing joke that Twilight never gets a lollipop at the bank, Moondancer going all 'Napoleon Dynamite' on us in panel four. Still through this all, Pinkie Pie offers Twilight a lick, and Moondancer spills truth in panel 6.
There are many small jokes instead of one big joke in this episode. When you do it like this, the jokes come at the reader faster and some people get it, some don't. Some might not find this that funny because the smaller jokes don't always equate to "As funny as a main punchline" to some people.
Truth be told, it's hard after 1,000 episodes to constantly create jokes and humor. That is also why we've gone more story-heavy lately, and it seems like people are not noticing the transition, or are ok with it. :D *Fingers crossed*
