Description

History
"Bubble Buddies"
It is first seen in "Bubble Buddies", while Steven and Connie try to pop the magical bubble that they are trapped in. Steven describes the place as "dangerous", because many accidents apparently occur there.
"Serious Steven"
It makes a second appearance in "Serious Steven". Steven rides on The Teacups with the Crystal Gems until becoming motion sick. He leaps off the ride and lands on Mr. Smiley who is operating the controls, causing the control panel to break. The ride spins out of control and breaks, sending riders flying across the park and into the ocean, and Steven is subsequently declared permanently banned from all of the rides in Funland.
"Arcade Mania"
Despite Steven's ban from Funland rides, he and the Gems go to Funland Arcade. Steven once again causes unintended destruction while he treats Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl to a day of fun at the arcade, much to Mr. Smiley's dismay.
"Watermelon Steven"
Steven sets up a stand and sells his Steven-shaped watermelons near the entrance of Beach City Funland.
"Too Short to Ride"
Beach City Funland is the main setting of the episode, with Peridot, Amethyst, and Steven visiting the park. Amethyst and Steven shape-shift in order to be able to ride a rollercoaster, visited the House of Mirrors, and Peridot, with her newfound ferrokinesis powers, completes a game of ring toss in order to win an alien plush.
"Greg the Babysitter"
While searching for Rose Quartz and Sour Cream, Greg gets distracted by a game called "Potato Bros" at the Arcade. He eventually runs into Beach City Funland and finds Rose. He then notices that Sour Cream isn't there and says to Rose that he thought she was going to watch him. She then replies to him that she watched Sour Cream climb to the top of a Ferris Wheel. Greg panics and hurries himself to climb the wheel as fast as he can. He then notices how high he is, starts getting dizzy, and asks Rose if she could set the wheel in motion in-order for the two to get down. She pulls a lever which sets the wheel in motion but Greg says it's too fast for him. Rose tries slowing it down the Ferris wheel but breaks the lever which makes the wheel spin even faster. She angrily smashes the control booth which makes the wheel spin incredibly fast. Rose then tries to hold on the wheel manually, thereby sending Greg and Sour Cream flying into the air. Rose rips off one of the gondolas, jumps into the sky, and catches them.
