So, is anyone else questioning that White Pearl used to be Pink Pearl? I’m wondering if anyone still thinks that won’t happen.I love how quickly the Crystal Gems tossed aside their placating of Steven’s pacifism and were ready to throw down against the Diamonds.For those keeping count, we’re down to just Steven, Connie, Bismuth, and Lion for the Crystal Gems.The dancing gems were literally shaped like cogs.Look at how excited the other gems were for White Diamond to arrive.The Diamonds posed the same as their murals on the Moon base.I love our Garnet and validate her existence entirely, but I want to see other non-fusion Garnets. I desperately want to see a non-fusion Garnet.Did anyone else notice the parallel between Steven asking Connie to dance in “Alone Together” and Connie here?.Then Yellow Diamond poofs them all before throwing Stevonnie into a pitch-black room to think about what “Pink” did. ![]() Ruby and Sapphire form Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst form Opal, and then two onlooking gems form a Jade. They accidentally fuse while dancing, the Diamonds throw a huge fit, and the others rush to their defense. WP kicks off the ball and calls it the beginning of era 3.Ĭonnie asks Steven to dance despite the unseemliness of it. The Diamonds make their entrances, but White sends White Pearl in her place. Ruby and Sapphire even show up with the other Rubies and Sapphires. The party starts and Steven approves of a bunch of gems approaching him, including Amethyst wearing limb enhancers. She gives Steven her confidence that he can change White Diamond’s mind. ![]() Connie can stay with Steven since she is his “pet.” After a bit of an argument between Blue and Steven, Garnet relents and says she won’t attend the party. Garnet can’t come to the party unless she unfuses. ![]() I love them so much.īlue Diamond shows up to squash the fun again, insulting Steven’s appearance and his friends. He says he’ll talk to her on the dance floor, which leads to a conversation about dancing and fun, which reveals that Blue Pearl likes to draw and Yellow Pearl likes to pose. Steven can’t even talk to White Diamond, which is the whole motivation behind the party. Turns out Homeworld parties consist of the Diamonds sitting on their thrones and approving of the gems in their courts. Uh oh.Īll of Steven’s ideas are quickly dismissed by the Pearls as forbidden. They even offer their Pearls to help, though they stress that the party needs to adhere to Homeworld customs. They actually like it and consider it a chance to kick off Era 3 for Homeworld. Then he approaches Blue and Yellow Diamond about his party idea. Steven wakes up and finds the Crystal Gems making themselves at home. Always count on Steven Universe for the sudden, horrifying body horror. Then Steven starts throwing up Rose Quartz hair. ![]() Yellow Diamond even shows up, all neck, and cracks a smile. Yes, I’m considering this confirmation that White Pearl used to be Pink Diamond’s Pearl. Yes, that’s obviously White Pearl shaded pink. What better way to start an episode then with pure terror? Well, it starts off innocently enough, with Steven having a dream/flashback of having fun with his Pearl. I’ll admit, I’m tempted to spend this entire review calling out a lot of people who for some reason assumed SU had fully redeemed the Diamonds and glossed over their crimes. Gee, who would have thought? The party Steven suggested at the end of “Familiar” went terribly, terribly wrong! Oh, Steven Universe, never stop yanking my heart guts.
