Pinky Pie takes her friends' apparent avoidance of her personally to a manic degree.
Up until this point, Pinkie Pie has often been related to the oddball of the ponies. With 'Party of One,' the writers finally give her a story arc (almost) all to herself.
After throwing a great party that her friends compliment her on, she immediately sets out to throw an after-party the next day...only to find her friends making excuses, and doing something they don't want to include her in.
The scenario still leaves plenty of room for Pinkie Pie to be a little 'odd,' but it also feels like one of the first times we've gotten to spend more time with her, and her thought processes.
This leads to a moment near the end of the episode that is really quite memorable (so much so that it sparked a rather dark fan-fiction about Pinkie...but that's all I'll say about that). With the other Pony characters, we've seen how they can be level-headed much of the time, but this episode is rare in its analysis of Pinkie Pie and her fun-loving attitude.
