Listen, little brother, we should have butt talk.

For those of you who wanted Rumble to have a mark by the end of the episode, Rumble is not ready for a mark and this episode is showing that there are two sides to the coin.
 
Sure on one side, some folks wanna get their mark ASAP, but Rumble and others don’t because of the tendency to do “what you’re good at” instead of “what you’d like to do”, and despite how the episode wrapped up, he wasn’t wrong. AB hasn’t seen Zecora in several seasons, Scootaloo has hardly touched her scooter, Sweetie Belle hasn’t done any singing or fashion, and the little mare who just was enthralled in painting circles stopped cold when she was making Haiku and only when Rumble pointed it out did she realize that she was GOOD at it, but didn’t WANT to do it.
 
Forcing a mark on Rumble at the end of the episode would just enforce that he was right about everything; that you get your mark “forced” upon you and you’re enslaved to what your marked talent is.
 
The actual lesson was to point out that he is free to keep doing thing and that the mark is just a mark, not a shackle that ties you to doing one thing the rest of your life.
 
Of all things, Rarity is the best example of this. Her mark and skill is locating gemstones, but her life and profession is fashion and decorating and has made a lucrative business that spans equestria, which hardly touches on the gem finding ability other than her occasional dress that includes them.
