Future Vision/Transcript

[Open on Steven's Room]

Steven: Okay, everyone. I think we all know what's going on here. I'm sure you knew this day was coming sooner or later. [Camera focus on his action figure toys] I understand your concern, but that language was inappropriate. I'm a Crystal Gem. I'm a big boy now. And I got to stop saying stuff like, "I'm a big boy now" *Picks up and talks to the "cloud" action figure* Look, I'm sure this is tough, but let's all be positive about this. Man, I guess I can't be in the Ninja Squad anymore. *Takes out the Ninja Squad Poster on his wall* Get out of my life, Ninja Squad! *Puts a new Ninja Squad Poster* Yeah! New Ninja Squad! *Picks up a box with all his old toys and looks around his bedroom* Mm. That's everything for now. *Walks and picks a Teddy bear from the floor* Hmm? Oh. Master of ceremonies bear bear. *Puts on a sad face while talking to the bear* I guess I should get rid of you, too? *Suddenly smiles* Nah. You never know when I'll need a cool deejay for a fun party, right? *Trips down the stairs* Whooooooah! *Crashes onto Garnet as he falls down* Uh... Garnet!

Garnet: Good morning to you, Steven. *She smiles and puts him down*

Steven: Boy, I sure am lucky you showed up when you did.

Garnet: Luck's got nothing to do with it.

Steven: Wait. What do you mean by that? *He sits down and picks up all the toys that spilled out the box*

Garnet: *kneels next to him* Don't worry about it.

Steven: No, seriously. How do you always know where to be?

Garnet: Mmm. *She picks up the teddy bear while smiling to Steven* I don't think you can handle that information.

Steven: Are you gonna tell me something cool about yourself? *Smiles excitedly*

Garnet: Nope.

Steven: Aw, come on. *frowns* I'm a b-... large man now. *He smirks*

Garnet: Well I guess you could say that I have a sort of future vision. *Her glases shine while a Zing! is heard* I'm able to see possible outcomes to most situations, *Camera switches to Steven, whose eyes have stars and his tongue is out while smiling* which comes in handy since you seem to attract a lot of danger.

Steven: *smirks while talking* Well, danger is my middle name.

Garnet: That's a lie. Your middle name, is cutie pie. *She taps Steven's nose*

Steven: *smiles* Haaa!

[Timeskip, Camera focuses on the beach]

[mid-tempo music plays] *Garnet and Steven work out on the beach while marching on the same place*

Oon-dohng hah jah! Cha! Hana *Both raise their arms* dool *Both lower a bit their arms*, dool *both relax their arms* dool *Both relax their legs*.

Seht *Both raise their arms* dool *Both lower a bit their arms*, neht *both relax their arms* dool *Both relax their legs*.

Duh-suht *Left arm over their heads* dool *Arm back to place*.

Yuh-suht *Right arm over their heads* dool *Arm back to place*.

*Garnet appears her gauntlets and Steven picks up a pair of dumbbell weights and they exercise*

Il-gohb dool, yuh-duhlp.

Geh sohk hah jah! Hana dool, dool dool.

Seht dool, neht dool.

Duh-suht dool.

Yuh-suht dool.

Il-gohb dool.

Yuh-duhlp

*Garnet raises her hand and breaks the stereo while exercising*

Garnet: Okay, we're done.

Steven: *He puts down the weights and looks sad* But the day still has so much potential. *Stands up and smiles* Garnet, what are my breakfast possibilities?

Garnet: Well, you're already outside, so you'll probably go to the Big Donut.

Steven: *looks amazed* Wow. That's amazing. *He scratches his head* Um, do you see any possible futures where you, *Garnet dissapear her gloves* um, come with me and have a great time?

Garnet: Hmm.

[Musical whirring] *Steven smiles while his eyes have stars and wiggles his eyebrows* [Musical whirring stops and camera focus on Garnet] [Whirring resumes]*Steven still wiggles his eyebrows* [Musical whirring stops and camera focus on Garnet] [Whirring resumes] *Steven still wiggles his eyebrows* [Musical whirring stops and camera focus on Garnet]

Garnet: *adjusts her glasses* Yes.

Steven: *gasps* Really?! Then let's go! *while walking away* So, can Pearl and Amethyst see the future, too?

Garnet: No one can see the future. [Camera focuses on her glasses, two dots appear and then close while a 3 dot above appear and then all changes to a path] I can see options and trajectories. [The path now is seen from above, moving like a river] Time is like a river that splits into creeks or pools into lakes or careens down waterfalls [The river splits into different rivers, then into lake, a pool and a waterfall]. *Garnet adjusts her glasses while the imaginey disappears* I have the map, and I steer the ship.

Steven: I see.

[Scene change, they walk towards the Big Donut and enter]

[Doorbell rings]

Steven: So, what would happen if I said hi to Sadie?

Garnet: The most probable outcome is that Sadie will say hi back.

Steven: *pensive face* Hmm. Hi, Sadie!

Sadie:  Oh, hi, Steven.

Steven: *laughs and talks to Garnet* Oh, that was an easy one. What would happen if... *Steven points to Lars* I said hi to my BFF, Lars? Our friendship is deep, but complicated. So the outcome of this experiment is way unpredictable.

Garnet: I see a single potential future where Lars gives you a high five.

Steven: *gasps while having star shaped pupils*

Garnet: And two more potential futures where you suffer third-degree burns all over your body.

Steven: *dreamy eyes* A high five from Lars! Hi, Lars! [Lars gets startled and drops over the Jar full of hot Coffee towards steven] - Ughh! [Garnet protects Steven from the hot coffee] Ohh!

Lars: Criminy! Are you okay?! That coffee was really hot!

Garnet: *while dripping hot coffee* I drink coffee for breakfast. *She cleans herself up*

Steven: *nervous chuckling* Funny.

[Scene changes, now Steven runs towards the counter of BC Fries]

Steven: *talking to Peedee* You know exactly what I want. *Turns around and talks to Garnet* Any possible futures here where I'm hurt by this?

Garnet: *Pensive Face* Hmm. Mm. Tons.

Steven: Uh, like what?

Garnet: Well, for starters [Scene changes to a cartoon version of Steven] you could just be going on about your business, eating your fry bits [The animated Steven eats the fry bits], and then suddenly you choke to death! [Plink!] [Steven dies from choking and appears as a skeleton] [Whistle!] [Scene changes, still cartoonish] Or you get so distracted that you fall down a manhole! [Cartoon Steven falls down a manhole] [Splash!][His cartoon skull appears] [Plink] [Scene changes again, he's on the bed and dies] You could get food poisoning, or be bullied by wasps. [Wasps that look like beedrills attack Steven while laughing] And that's just a few instances off the top of my head.

Steven: *looking scared, taking the fried bits* W-What if I stand perfectly still?

Garnet: You'll probably get a really bad sunburn. Yeah.

Steven: Uh, Garnet, wait up! *breathing heavily*

[Old Cartoon Music]

[Cartoon Steven appears again walking on the beach, a shark appears and eat Steven] [Water gurgling] [The shark spits Steven's head]

[Scene changes to Real Steven who looks sweaty and worried]

[Cartoon Steven appears again looking at the Big Donut's Donut sign and it falls over Steven and a skeleton appears in his place]

[Camera changes to Steven who now looks really worried]

[He looks at the sky and a Flying saucer whirring appears with a Alien Cat]

Cartoon Steven: Cookie cat! You're real?! [The Alien Zaps Cartoon Steven] Oh, noo! I never considered that you would be evil! [The Alien kills Steven and the camera Switch towards the Real Steven, now looking absolutely terrified]

[Scene changes back to the front door of Crystal Temple]

Steven: *panting*

Garnet: Steven.

Steven: Aah!

Garnet: Nice helmet.

Steven: *scoffs* *chuckling* Yeah. *haltingly* You never know when you're gonna ride a bike.

-Garnet: And you're making a sandwich.

- Steven: Yeah. Just got to pick up the knife and s-spread the mayonnaise. *clears throat* Pick up the *whimpers* the knife! *whimpering* Pick up *heart beating* kni-i-fe! Aah! *panting*

Garnet: Steven.

Steven: Wait! Wait! I've got it. *drops the entire jar of mayonnaise onto the sandwich*[Plop!]

Garnet: *smirking* That will kill you faster.

Steven: Not funny!

Garnet: Oh.

Amethyst: Nice noggin, Steven. *laughs and steps over the Warp Pad*

Pearl: We're ready, Garnet.

Steven: Wait. You're going on a mission? *Takes Garnet's Arm* Hold on! Don't leave me! *starts to cry* At least tell me what's gonna happen with my lunch! Do I choke on a pickle?

Garnet: Mm, you don't choke on a pickle.

Steven: *still crying* That means something else happens with the pickle!

Pearl: Garnet! - Shouldn't we be going?

Garnet: *Kneels down* Steven, I can't be with you all the time. Just trust me when I say that you are in control. *she smiles and Steven smiles* Do not go on the roof! *Camera focuses on her now serious face* No matter what.

[Camera changes, outside the Crystal Temple]

[Camera changes again, now inside Steven's Room, Steven's sitting on his bed]

[Thunder crashing]

Steven: *whimpers* What could possibly happen to me on the roof? [Thunder crashes] Aah! [The Door Opens, Wind whistling] Ugh. *breathing heavily* Okay. Calm down. Maybe I should just get a snack. *Gasps* But what if [Cartoon Steven Appears, He tries to open the fridge door and it falls over him] Ooh! [Cartoon Steven Appears, and a chandelier falls over him, making him a skeleton]

[Wasps that look like beedrills attack Steven again]

Cartoon Steven: Ugh! How come you guys are back?!

Wasp 1: We're made of magic.

Wasp 2: Yeah! Magic! [Plink!][Cartoon Steven dies and becomes a skeleton again while both wasps are laughing, camera switches back to the real Steven]

Steven: Aaaah! [Thunder crashes] Aah! *He Trips over something while hiding down the table* Ugh! Master of ceremonies bear bear.* He picks the bear while crying*

[Steven remembers what he said earlier]

'I'm a big boy now! Big boy now! Boy now!'

Steven: What's happening to me? I'm supposed to be a Crystal Gem. I'm supposed to be a Crystal Gem! [Thunder crashes] Aaaaaah!*He stands up and punches the table* Ugh!

[Scene changes, outside the Crystal Temple]

[Thunder crashing][You see a hand][Music]

Steven: *breathing heavily, while climbing over the roof* Okay. I'm here. *standing on the roof* What are you gonna do to me, future?

[Scene changes, you see the warp pad light fill the house]

Garnet: *racing outside* Steven! Get off the roof!

Steven: No! If something is going to happen to me, *closes his eyes* just let it happen.

Garnet: *worried* Steven! You don't understand.

Steven: No, you don't understand. *grabs his head* Everything I do shoves me violently towards the end! The more I know, the more I know that I don't know! *kneels down with his hands up in the air* I can't live like this! Why did you tell me about future vision?! What's going to happen to me on the roof?!

[Camera changes to Garnet on the floor]

Garnet: This.

[Camera changes to Steven on the roof]

Steven: W-What?

[Camera Changes to Garnet on the floor]

Garnet: I knew you might do this if I told you about my power. I saw this, and I told you anyway.

[Camera changes to Steven on the roof]

Steven: But why?

[Camera changes to Garnet on the floor]

Garnet: I took a risk at your expense. There was a chance you'd understand this, and we'd be closer. [Camera changes to Steven's face] Steven, [Camera changes to Garnet on the floor] *Garnet takes out her glasses, revealing her third eye* I see so many things that can hurt you. I should never have let one of them be me [Camera changes to Steven's face]. [Camera changes to Garnet on the floor] *She puts back her glasses* There are millions of possibilities for the future, but it's up to you to choose which becomes reality. [Camera changes to Steven on the roof] Please understand. You choose your own future.

[Camera Changes to Steven's face]

Steven: I do understand. I... [Thunder crashes] What am I doing? I guess I can't really see a future for myself up here. *sighs, while climbing down the roof* Mm. *runs towards Garnet and hugs her while breathing heavily, eyes closed* I'll watch out for myself from now on.

* Garnet looks up, raises her arm just in time when a lightning is about to hit Steven, protecting him* [Thunder rumbling]

Steven: What was that?

Garnet: Oh, nothing important.
