"The Geode" is a giant black domed rock containing a synthetic storm. The Geode lays at the bottom of an enormous crater, and Garnet implies that it was created by an explosion.
History
The Geode received damage by unknown means, thus Steven and the Crystal Gems rushed to repair it and prevent the storm from escaping and vaporizing everything. When they arrived, lightning was spewing from the cracked Geode and creating a thunderstorm overhead. Garnet hoped Steven could seal the crack with his healing powers, but his attempts had no affect.
Steven and the Gems returned to the Beach House to devise a new plan.
Greg wanted make amends for lying to Steven, and he traveled via Warp Pad to fix the Geode himself. Steven chased after his father, and together they used a roll of duct tape from Greg's toolbox to temporarily seal the Geode.
In "Warp Tour", the Geode is revisited as the Gems travel searching for the Flask Robonoids that Steven witnesses.
Trivia
