____________________

Objects:

-Destabilizer

Beginning:

The CGs (which includes Connie) are walking through Mask Island because Steven thought he sensed something. As they are walking, Connie trips on some metal, and falls on her face. Steven picks her up and we get a scene similar to Greg seeing Rose in Story for Steven, where Connie is looking up at Steven with the wind blowing. She thanks him for helping her up, and Steven responds with "thats what friends do," which makes Connie a bit disappointed. The gems look down at where Connie tripped, and see a small hatch. They open it up and go in, to see that it is a space ship.

Middle Summary:

The CGs search the ship. The CGs chase Peridot. We get more moments of Steven refering to Connie as a friend. We learn that the ship belonged to Yellow Diamond.

Ending:

The CGs break open the door to the control room to find Peridot trying to fly the ship out of the ground. Everyone takes out their weapon and charges at Peridot, but she blasts them with her weapon. She activates the ship and tries to fly it out of the ground. Everyone tries to escape, but Steven and Connie are left behind. The ship blasts into space, and Steven and Connie are stuck against the wall. In her panic, Connie tells Steven how she has always felt about him, and he responds by saying he always kind of felt the same, but it didn't really matter considering they were probably going to die soon. In an act of heroism, Connie stabs the floor with her sword and begins climbing. She makes her way to the control room where Peridot notices her and slows down the ship. Connie charges at her with the sword, but Peridot breaks it half. Steven runs in to the room with his shield out and throws it at the control panel. Peridot freaks out saying that the ship was going to blow up in less than a minute, and she tries to blast them, but the beam is deflected, so she takes out a destabalizer and tries to hit them, with of course no effect. Connie disarms her, gets the destabalizer, and zaps her with it. In her last words before she poofs for the rest of the season to return in 3, she says: "You people are brave standing up to the Diamond Authority. I respect that." She poofs, and the ship has ten seconds left. Steven and Connie run for the door after picking up Peridot, but don't have enough time to get out. Steven tackles Connie, bubbles both of them, and the ship explodes. The bubble is going down like a comet, and Garnet sees it. She enlarges her gauntlets and has Amethtst swing her around. When she is launched, she collides with the comet bubble and is keeping it in place until it cools down. When Steven and Connie have the chance to escape, they give Peridot's gem to Garnet so she can bubble it. The CGs are hugging the two as they are crying, and Steven and Connie look to eachother and blush. The episode ends with a look at Homeworld Palace, where Yellow Diamond is saying she might need to make a little pickup.

So what ideas do you guys have?
