Before the episode ended, she just looked so dazed and exhausted, though (and remember, gems don’t need to sleep). I love Pearl even if she does questionable and wrong things (all of these characters are so great for being “gray”). I want to believe Pearl’s ‘healed,’ but I think she’s not ‘healed’ enough and she won’t get the time to do so before she’s needed as “Earth’s Guardian” again. The gems do get captured (that shouldn’t count as a spoiler) and I can’t help but think it’s because the Crystal Gems today are nowhere near as strong internally as well as externally, as they were when Rose Quartz was leading them.

It would seem that Pearl and as of recent Amethyst lack emotional fortitude.
