I was seriously wondering why they didn't like... I dunno, have Bubbles notice the rainbow first. She's happy, she likes what's going on. Then you have Blossom with the diorama thing, fucking show it, there's enough reel padding there to make room for it. Then you take the 'but' jokes with Buttercup from the end and put them in the beginning since that actually resembled humor. The girls see everything descending into chaos and start realizing this isn't okay. This works, particularly if Bubbles is the one who makes the connection between the rainbow and everything getting crazy first. (Maybe Blossom and Buttercup didn't see it at first? I dunno, I've already put more thought into this than the writer did.)
You compact the city going nuts into one scene where the issues escalate, in a timely fashion - get to the fucking point and don't revisit it, you've got a tempo to keep up here. The rest should have written itself, but it just became an excuse to show off 'quirky' art that looks like one of those really loud overly detailed backgrounds with the rainbows and pixel art and shit, they show up sometimes. Whatever. Just have the girls fly into some weird wonderland (and be visibly put off by it) and have the creepy bear show up and his minions show up, etc. That way there's some fucking action in the episode proper instead of little smudges of it here and there.
For extra points, make the bear turn into Him because seriously. It even talks like Him.
Have the girls do something clever to make the rainbow and all this shit go away. Maybe they do a spinning thing where they make a whirlwind to blow it away, I don't fucking know. Just be sure to knock the bad guy into the horizon when you're done.
Seeing everything go crazy and how it's clearly endangering people gets the moral across just fine but it's lost in a sea of garbage, and the episode isn't memorable so the idea won't stick. The premise isn't bad but the execution was terrible.
