I've already expressed this several times, but I just can't shake the feeling that Centipeetle and Bismuth probably won't return. Even Jasper I've had my doubts although I find her return slightly more likely since there are active characters (The Rubies) who care about her and would do anything to help return her.

Bismuth coming back would required the same amount of effort as grabbing a bowl of chips, and yet not a single one of the Crystal Gerks have made such an effort, so I can only assume they don't care about Bismuth, and won't do anything to help her unless they absolutely have to.

Steven SAID "I'll heal you [Centipeetle] up someday". But even if he finds the cure, and heals Jasper, Who's to say Steven will actually follow through? Who's to say he has ANY intention of doing so? Story wise, what would healing Centipeetle ACTUALLY do? Give us three more gems for our collection at the barn?

I'm sorry to say, but I just can't have any faith in this show's storytelling anymore until I see things happen with my own eyes. There's been too many little missteps lately that have just kept adding up. We have a maximum of 31 episodes before the end of Season 5, and with this show's pacing, there's no way we'll be able to get a conclusion that'll satisfy completely.
