Okay, so I've noticed a bunch of people keep saying things about Pearl wanting to return to the homeworld. This is false. The episode stated she wanted to return to SPACE. She doesn't once say she wants to go to the gem homeworld, and I don't blame her because of all the evidence in the show that has proven the Crystal Gems are not on good terms with their own kind. Lots of people seem to have gotten HOME (like Lapis wanted to return to) confused with space. Speaking of Lapis, this brings up another theory of mine. After meeting Peridot, the Gems seemed horrified of her returning. They also, as I stated, fear their own kind. Could it be that, since this episode came just after "Ocean Gem" (With "House Guest" as the only episode in between), Pearl maybe wanted to STOP Lapis from returning home. If Lapis returned, after all, she could tell the others about the Crystal Gems, and who knows how that would end up. Pearl may have missed space, but there could have been other motives to her wanting to travel.
