Okay, I'm noticing a pattern of anger here, and I must say.... WILL YOU ALL STOP ALREADY?!

Look, I'll admit it, I had my doubts when I heard this was going to happen. Nobody saw it coming and I doubt anyone here knows completely where it's going to go. But then again, maybe that was the point; to give the fans something to chew over while they plan the next part of their more serious side of the show (i.e. when Peridot finally starts her plan). Plus, a lot of people seem to overlook 3 essential things about this episode:

1. Both Rebecca and UG's creators are close friends and most likely worked together at one point or another (most likely on Adventure Time).

2. Casual viewers and full-time fans of Steven Universe have severely underestimated the show prior to the Steven Bomb. We didn't know where it was going to go, so we kept enjoying the many great things that the crew are capable of.

3. We know these guys can take things that normally wouldn't work and make them work; like the idea of an alien race that wants to destroy the Earth for one reason or another. Or cool kids that aren't complete jerks. Heck, even the concept of Steven himself would have came off as annoying in almost any other creator's hands! But you know what? They made them work! They made them funny, heartwarming, and just all-around a blast to watch!

So in conclusion, I ask you, if we truly believe in Steven and want the best for the show, then why do we feel this will be any different from the other episodes that we consider good? As the main theme said it best: "And if you think we can't, we'll always find a way! That's why the people of this world believe in Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl and Steven!"
