"Gem Hunt" is the 17th episode of the third season of Steven Universe and the 95th episode overall.
Official Synopsis
Steven and Connie track a Gem monster through the wilderness but its tracks lead them to mystery.[2]
Plot
Steven, Connie and Pearl warp to the Great North and in front of a large Wailing Stone. Steven takes lots of pictures with Connie's phone per Mr. and Mrs. Maheswaran's requests. The first one he took was of Pearl and Connie smiling, the second one like they were looking for a monster, the third like they made a joke, and the fifth one was where the joke wasn't that funny. The fifth request gets interrupted by Pearl saying that it's enough photography. Steven urges because it was Connie's first mission.
Connie thanks Pearl for accepting her to allow her to come along to help them out find a corrupted gem and takes it as an honor to work along Pearl. Pearl complements Connie about her impressive 'Sword fighting' which have exceeded beyond her expectations, she also states that with her careful supervision, she's confident Connie will be able to accomplish a simple Gem recovery mission. Connie thanks Pearl and promises she won't let her down while Steven takes a picture secretly and whispers "Connie's first mission," while rubbing his cheeks.
While walking on the snow, leaving their footprints, as they venture forward deeper into the ever white snow lands of the North, Pearl asks Connie to recap the mission. Connie replies that Garnet sensed some corrupted gem activity in the North, it was their job to locate it, destabilize it, and bubble it. Pearl tells Connie and Steven that their human body can't last in the extreme cold and to be extra careful. Connie replies that it's okay because she packed all that she needs to survive in the wilderness and Steven says he brought his board games in case they get bored.
As Connie asks how they would know whether a corrupted gem is nearby, a gigantic Aquamarine-colored Red-and-blue spotted Corrupted Gem appears, Pearl exclaims that this is how we find them. As the Corrupted Gem roars, steam evaporates from its ghastly mouth. Connie readies herself while Steven takes a quick snapshot. Pearl exclaims that Connie and Steven have to work together, Connie quickly takes out her sword and Steven summons his shield and ready themselves to a battle but when they were just about to face the beast, another brown rock-based Corrupted Gem that was the same size and shape as the first one appeared, both roar as Pearl summons her spear.
