I actually liked this episode. (Not that I don't like every other episode, but they've been getting a bit weird lately.) It showed how the Gems cared about him, wanting to give him confidence in being a Crystal Gem himself. I was a bit conflicted though when Steven discovered it was rigged. I figured at that point that the Gems don't really seem to trust Steven all that much, but it turned out differently. It's good to know they still have good intentions, considering how they've been acting lately with Warp Tour and stuff. I loved how Steven marched through the obstacles angrily, then decides not to yell at the Gems, because he understands how hard it is for them to raise him, with him being half-human, as well as the fact that they only wanted to boost his confidence.
