The episode starts out with Steven and Connie watching their favorite show, "[[Under the Knife]]". Connie exclaims about how cool it is and thanks Steven for letting her watch it at his house. Steven asks why Connie cannot watch it at her house, and Connie says that her [[Dr. Maheswaran|mom]] maintains that it does not represent a "real" emergency room. Just then, her mom calls, asking to speak to Steven's mom. Connie tells this to Steven, and he responds that she cannot, since his mom gave up her physical form to give birth to Steven. Connie says she cannot tell that to her mom, so they rush downstairs and ask [[Garnet]] to pretend to be Steven's mom. While on the phone, Garnet panics, (while sounding as stoic as ever), claiming that Steven and Connie were playing with swords and had killed each other. After briskly hanging up on Connie's mother, Garnet hands the phone back to Steven and calmly apologizes for panicking.

The next day, Steven calls Connie to see if she wants to see "the mid-season pre-finale of "Under the Knife", but Connie says she cannot because her parents are upset and refuse to let Connie hang out with Steven until they have met both of his parents. Steven assumes that he is going to bring all of the Gems to the dinner, but Connie objects. Connie admits the fact that she told her parents that Steven lives in a nuclear family. Steven exclaims that the Crystal Gems are not radioactive, but then Connie explains the meaning of a nuclear family. Steven then suggests that Connie could simply tell her parents about the Crystal Gems, but Connie is afraid that her parents would not let her hang out with him again if they were to know that she lied to them.

Steven struggles to choose one of the Gems to act as his mother because Garnet is not a good conversationalist, [[Amethyst]] is too gross, and [[Pearl]] does not like eating (because of digestion). Steven proposes that the Gems fuse into one but all the Gems quickly decline. Despite their quick refusal, after seeing how much this really means to Steven, they reluctantly accept.

That night, the Maheswarans are impatiently waiting for Steven and his parents. Steven shows up 20 minutes late with [[Greg Universe|Greg]] and [[Alexandrite]], a huge six armed fusion of Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. Greg introduces himself and then Alexandrite as his wife. Steven comes up with lies about how they met and what they do, much to the disapproval of Connie. After Alexandrite's much less than impeccable behavior at dinner, Connie asks to speak with Steven. Connie chastises Steven for bringing the giant Gem. After Steven realizes Connie still wears her glasses (despite her eyes being healed by him) he begins to suspect that Connie is ashamed of him, and they both return to the table. When they get back outside, Alexandrite begins to destabilize over eating shrimp. The discord causes her to split back into Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. Garnet, upset at Amethyst and Pearl for putting their needs before Steven's, chides them and smacks them on the head. Mrs. Maheswaran admonishes Connie for lying to her, which causes Connie to run crying to the bus stop, with Steven going after her.

Connie and Steven decide to run away so they can be friends without having to worry about Connie's parents' disapproval. As they are leaving on a bus, the enraged Gems (fused back as Alexandrite) catch up to them and force them to return. The Gems angrily chastise Steven in front of the Maheswarans.

Hello. This... is Mom Universe. Yes. The children are playing swords. Sorry—playing with swords. They're bleeding. Oh no, they are dead. Don't call again.

Garnet


"Fusion Cuisine" is the 32nd episode of the first season in Steven Universe, and the 32nd episode overall.

Official Synopsis

In an effort to win over Connie's parents, Steven convinces the Gems to fuse together and pretend to be his mother.[2]

Plot

Fusion Cuisine 004

The episode starts out with Steven and Connie watching their favorite show, Under the Knife. Connie exclaims about how cool it is and thanks Steven for letting her watch it at his house. Steven asks why Connie cannot watch it at her house, and Connie says that her mom maintains that it does not represent a "real" emergency room. Just then, her mom calls, asking to speak to Steven's mom. Connie tells this to Steven, and he responds that she cannot, since his mom gave up her physical form to give birth to Steven. Connie says she cannot tell that to her mom, so they rush downstairs and ask Garnet to pretend to be Steven's mom. While on the phone, Garnet panics, (while sounding as stoic as ever), claiming that Steven and Connie were playing with swords and had killed each other. After briskly hanging up on Connie's mother, Garnet hands the phone back to Steven and calmly apologizes for panicking.

Fusion Cuisine 033

The next day, Steven calls Connie to see if she wants to see "the mid-season pre-finale of Under the Knife, but Connie says she cannot because her parents are upset and refuse to let Connie hang out with Steven until they have met both of his parents. Steven assumes that he is going to bring all of the Gems to the dinner, but Connie objects. Connie admits the fact that she told her parents that Steven lives in a nuclear family. Steven exclaims that the Crystal Gems are not radioactive, but then Connie explains the meaning of a nuclear family. Steven then suggests that Connie could simply tell her parents about the Crystal Gems, but Connie is afraid that her parents would not let her hang out with him again if they were to know that she lied to them.

Fusion Cuisine 062

Steven struggles to choose one of the Gems to act as his mother because Garnet is not a good conversationalist, Amethyst is too gross, and Pearl does not like eating (because of digestion). Steven proposes that the Gems fuse into one but all the Gems quickly decline. Despite their quick refusal, after seeing how much this really means to Steven, they reluctantly accept.

Fusion Cuisine 098

That night, the Maheswarans are impatiently waiting for Steven and his parents. Steven shows up 20 minutes late with Greg and Alexandrite, a huge six-armed fusion of Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. Greg introduces himself and then Alexandrite as his wife. Steven comes up with lies about how they met and what they do, much to the disapproval of Connie. After Alexandrite's much less than impeccable behavior at dinner, Connie asks to speak with Steven. Connie chastises Steven for bringing the giant Gem. After Steven realizes Connie still wears her glasses (despite her eyes being healed by him) he begins to suspect that Connie is ashamed of him, and they both return to the table.
