Official Synopsis
Steven insists that everything is fine.
Plot
The episode continues off from the last one, with Steven warping back to home, where he slowly and quietly goes inside and slumps on the bed. Then, he gets a call from Connie, saying that she hasn't seen him since the hospital and asks if he is feeling better from the swelling; He replies with yes, then a no, then he says maybe. He then attempts to change the subject by asking Connie how she's been preparing for college. Connie tells him that it's been fine, but becomes concerned with Steven's answer to her question. Panicked, Steven hangs up and once again struggles with keeping his mind together, which interferes with the TV, displaying his rage against Greg, Jasper's recent shattering, and nearly shattering White Diamond while controlling her. He turns the TV off and sees his reflection, noticing his pupils in the shape of diamonds. Looking with disbelief, he denies his outbursts he's had with everyone has, and constantly tells himself that he's fine. He yells this aloud and his powers, along with the denial, cause the windows to crack, and the Gems take notice of his presence, shocked at his appearance. Even Garnet herself says they're all worried for his condition, but Steven tries to reassure them that they have nothing to worry about. He gets the idea that since he has quit running Little Homeschool, he should go and visit, as he rushes out of the house with his super speed.
After arriving at Little Homeworld, Steven looks for any Gem in need of assistance. He starts by visiting Peridot in the Greenhouse, who is teaching her Gem students about horticulture. He takes notice of the plants in bad condition, and attempts to heal them with his powers, but Peridot halts him from doing so, reminding him that Amethyst told her about his last encounter with plants. However, the plants appear to be dying, as Peridot hesitantly allows Steven to use his healing powers to cure the plants. This all goes awry when Steven uses saliva to try and heal the plants, as the scene cuts outside of the greenhouse, where the plants have come back to life, in the shape of him, breaking through. As Garnet is giving advice to a couple, she hears Peridot screaming. She is ready to fight, but is blocked by multiple Plant Stevens. Steven interprets this as though he's helped a lot, and uses his super speed to search Little Homeschool and see if anyone else needs help.
As he walks through Little Homeworld, he sees Bismuth's forge and monologues about the ongoing shop class. Amethyst, noticing Steven is talking to himself, asks if he is okay, but he doesn't respond. Inside the forge, Bismuth is testing new armor with Yellow Pearl as the model. Steven approaches, with Bismuth being impressed by his appearance. Steven asks if she needs any help, so Bismuth offers to let Steven shape a piece of the pauldron. Steven is excited, and prepares to mold it with his fists. Bismuth stops him, explaining that he is supposed to detail the armor. She offers him a small hammer, which he accepts, feigning forgetfulness. He taps the metal, bending it, but in the process splitting the anvil in half. Steven cracks a joke, but Bismuth grieves over the destruction of her anvil, so Steven laughs the situation off, throws the hammer behind him, and leaves, seeking an opportunity to help elsewhere. He is followed by three Plant Stevens.
Steven stops by to see Amethyst playing a baseball game with other Gems, and Steven asks if he can participate, which Amethyst allows him to. With Onion as the hitter, and Nephrite as the pitcher, Onion succesfully hits the ball, but it begins to head towards a window where inside, the Heaven Beetle and Earth Beetle are sharing tea. Steven rushes and catches the ball before it hits the window, garnering applause from the players. Steven is amazed at how he not only caught the ball, but also saved someone during the event, and didn't mess up as he thought he would. He shouts in joy, only to cause another outburst, destroying the surrounding buildings. Steven looks in embarrassment, and nervously apologizes for his mistake, but tries to brush it off by saying that making mistakes is okay, and he can improve from them. He picks up some of the remains of the neighborhood in Little Homeworld, as more Grass Stevens follow him and do the same.
Back at the Temple, Steven warps back home, surprised to find Connie, Greg, and the Gems waiting for him. Connie tried to call Steven multiple times, until his powers interfered with her phone, displaying Steven's current behavior during the day. Steven continues to deny how he's feeling, and Greg responds that no matter what happens, everyone will be there to support him. But Steven once again reassures that there's nothing to worry about, and tries to leave the house, but everyone surrounds him, trying to give him the opportunity to talk to them and share his feelings. Steven strains and his swelling starts to get worse. He starts acting even more hysterical, and even admits the things he's done from the events from "Mr. Universe" to "Homeworld Bound", which shocks everyone, especially him not admiting to the gems that he needed to go to the hospital, or everyone being flabbergasted when he admitted that he accidently shattered Jasper and almost did the same to White Diamond. Steven goes on the thought that whatever he messes up, he can try to fix, coming to the conclusion, where he strongly regrets the things he's done, and how people want to see him, he sees himself as something far worse: a fraud. Calling himself a monster, the episode abruptly ends with his shirt ripping from his back, and spikes protruding through it.

- This is the first episode that Miriam Hyman voices Bismuth, since her main voice actress, Uzo Aduba, left due to unknown reasons.
- She also voiced her in Unleash the Light.
Cultural References
- The scene were Steven accidentally destroys part of Little Homeschool may be a reference to the 1997 Disney film, Hercules when the title character accidentally destroys the Greek marketplace because of his strength.

- Steven wanting to shatter White Diamond in "Homeworld Bound"

- Connie's shock that Steven hasn't told the Gems about his hospital visit is similar to Steven's shock that Connie didn't tell her mom about Steven's wedding proposal in "Growing Pains".
