Talk:Say Uncle/@comment-25607939-20150403025459

What I think makes this episode work so much is that the Gems add a welcomed "Straight Man" element that is strangely missing in Uncle Grandpa. I mean sure, the human characters look at Uncle Grandpa's amazing antics with awe, and Mr. Gus shows disbelief in UG's weird line of thinking in ONE episode, but he's basically as crazy as the rest of them. Here the Gems react in the most realistic and observational way I have seen so far; with fear and unnerving shock. It's especially funny when Pearl quickly loses her sanity at the same rate as her loss of control in the situation.
