While the Sun Incinerator is drifting through space and Lars and the Off Colors contemplating what to do next, Steven pops out of Lars' hair with a large hoagie to celebrate their victory over Emerald and their rescue of Stevonnie just in time to watch their letest attempt to fix the ship fail. Steven asks if he could bring over a friend to see them to which Lars says yes. Steven re-enters Lars' hair and re-emerges with Garnet who absolutely thrilled and happy to see the crew, but the Off Colors mistakenly veiw Garnet's compliments as insults. When Steven corrects them, to the Off Colors confusion, Garnet realizes the they were just like her before she met Rose Quarts to the Off Colors are shock. When Steven asks if they knew his mother, they begin telling various versions of Rose Quarts all ment to demonize her to Garnet's dismay. Realizing that Homeworld did this deliberately, Garnet decides to tell everyone the true story of Rose Quarts.

During Homeworlds Era 1, The Diamonds believing themselves flawless decide to spread their infuence across space with Pink Diamond choosing Earth as her first colony. Pink Diamond's colony was going smoothly until the creation of Rose Quarts, who eventually took notice of the lifeforms on Earth and fell in love with everything the planet had to offer and began asking everyone around her about what they though of Earth. These questions eventually drew Pink Diamond ire and she demanded that Rose speak to her at once. Rose pleaded with Pink to leave Earth and the lifeforms on it in peace, but the Diamond refused and demaded Rose to get back to work. However Rose could no longer do Pink Diamond or Homeworlds bidding and began to rally others to her cause including Pearl, Bismuth, and Garnet herself eventually forming The Crystal Gems and rebelled. Meanwhile Pink Diamond, realizing that she's loosing control of her colony, called on Yellow Diamond and Blue Diamond for help in putting down Rose's rebellion. While the Crystal Gems were fearless and put up a good fight, Homeworlds armies were to much for them. Having little choices left, Rose shattered Pink Diamond. The other Diamonds however were livid and launched a direct attack against the planet in an effort to wipe out the Crystal Gems for good.

The Off Colors were initially amazed at the story but fell into dejection at hearing the ending, but Garnet encouages everyone by telling them that the Diamonds failed to snuff out the Crystal Gems and that everything that Earth represents still exists everywhere including them. With their spirits lifted Lars takes everyone to fix the ships engine. While they do so, Steven tells Garnet what he expierenced as Stevonnie and his concerns about them. Garnet relaxes him by telling Steven that Pink is long gone and that his visions are the result of Rose's empathetic powers which he inherited. Lars and the Off Colors manage to fix the engine but realize they still need to fix the ships nova thrusters. So with Steven and Garnet, they take off to raid the nearest colony for the parts they need.
