Dialogue
|
| Blue Diamond
|
(hugging Steven while crying tears of joy) Ah... Oh, Pink! I can't believe it! You've been here all along! Oh!
|
| Garnet
|
(crying) I can't just hand Steven over to Blue Diamond! She's a shatterer!
|
| Bismuth
|
(crying) She's not gonna hurt him. Look at her.
|
| Blue Diamond laughs happily and continues to hug Steven.
|
| Bismuth
|
(crying) She really thinks he's one of them.
|
| Amethyst
|
(crying, desperate) Ahh!! Somebody make Blue Diamond stop!!
|
| Connie
|
Are you guys okay?
|
| Pearl
|
(crying) It's just… (sniff) ugh, Blue Diamond's power. She's obviously relieved that Pink Diamond wasn't shattered after all.
|
| Yellow Diamond tries to activate her ship but it's destroyed.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
(approaches the house) Hm… How could you do this to us, Pink? Why did you let us think you were shattered? Why the strange disguise? Why are you doing a voice? Why didn't you say something at the trial? (wipes away her tears) And Blue, can you please stop crying? I can't see.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
…Sorry!
|
| Blue Diamond stops crying and releases Steven at the entrance of the house, next to Pearl and the rest of the Crystal Gems.
|
| Steven
|
My mom kept it secret from everyone.
|
| Pearl
|
(clears throat)
|
| Steven
|
Almost everyone.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
What are you talking about?
|
| Steven
|
Well, apparently Mom… Oh, geez, you don't know what a mom is… Okay! Pink Diamond took the form of Rose Quartz permanently after faking her shattering. Then Rose Quartz gave up that form to create a new life with my dad: me. Rose passed her gemstone and some of her powers onto me, but that's all. I… I don't have any of Pink or Rose's memories… I'm sorry…
|
| Yellow Diamond stares at Steven's gem.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Hmm… I'm sure your memories are in there somewhere, Pink.
|
| Steven
|
Actually, I go by Steven.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Oh, stars! How did you even survive?! We blasted the planet and obliterated every Gem on its surface!
|
| Steven
|
They weren't exactly... obliterated…
|
| The Crystal Gems and the Diamonds teleport at the location where the Centipeetles are located.
|
| Steven opens the door and shows the Centipeetle Mother to the Diamonds.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
What am I looking at?
|
| Centipeetle
|
(noises)
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
No one should've survived our attack.
|
| Steven
|
Centipeetle's mind is broken. I've tried to heal her but it didn't stick.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Heal her?
|
| Steven
|
But maybe you two can help her! You're so much stronger than me, and… I got close!
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Well, that's not something we normally do…
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
This is completely unprecedented.
|
| Steven
|
But you did this to her! You have to help her— all of them!
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Hmm, very well… I can try, but I make no promises.
|
| Yellow Diamond uncorrupts Centipeetle — she's a Nephrite.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
There, good as new.
|
| Nephrite
|
(noises)
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
She may be too far gone.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Gently, Yellow.
|
| Blue Diamond's hand glows and further heals Nephrite's mind.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
There we are!
|
| Nephrite
|
(starts crying) No! Please no! No! No! We’re all gonna be-!
|
| Nephrite keeps repeating "No! Please no! No! No! We’re all gonna be-!"
|
| Steven
|
Centi?
|
| Steven licks his right palm and heals Nephrite even further.
|
| Nephrite
|
No, please-!
|
| Steven
|
Centi! It's okay! It's okay!
|
| Nephrite opens her eye and looks up at the diamonds.
|
| Nephrite
|
Nephrite! Facet-413 Cabochon-12!
|
| Everyone is in shock.
|
| Amethyst
|
W-what?!
|
| Garnet
|
Unbelievable.
|
| Nephrite
|
I’m sorry for my failure to heed my Hessonite's evacuation orders… My team and I tried our best to make it out before the attack, but… You're here and it must've worked! You finally avenged Pink Diamond! You destroyed Rose Quartz!
|
| Blue and Yellow Diamond flinch and let go of Nephrite. She corrupts back into Centipeetle. Steven comforts Centipeetle.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Ugh, Pink. How many perfectly adequate Gems did you have us ruin?
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Shh, Yellow! Pink's been punished enough. She’s been trapped here in this awful planet with these… creatures.
|
| Steven
|
Do it again! It was working!
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
How long do you expect us to hold her together?
|
| Steven
|
I don’t know. Forever! You did this! So you have to do something!
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
We can only do so much, if it was the four of us.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Oh no! We can’t let her see this!
|
| Steven
|
Who? Who do we need?
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
What do you mean "who"? White.
|
| Everybody looks shocked.
|
| Pearl
|
W-White D-Diamond?
|
| Amethyst
|
What?!
|
| Pearl walks to Steven.
|
| Pearl
|
Steven. White Diamond isn't like us. She isn’t even like them. (gestures to Yellow and Blue Diamond)
|
| Pearl
|
You have no idea what she's capable of!
|
| Steven
|
I just want to talk.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
I don't think you'd have much luck with that… White… hasn't left Homeworld in eons.
|
| Steven
|
Then we're going to Homeworld!
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
In what?! You and your "friends" destroyed both our ships!
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Unless… You don't still have yours do you?
|
| The Crystal Gems and the Diamonds head to The Desert
|
| Steven
|
This place is filled with Mom's junk, so there's a good chance it's buried around here! We can split up the area like a grid and divide the search! It's just past these pink pyramids!
|
| The Diamonds look like they already know it's Pink Diamond's Ship.
|
| Steven
|
We've got a lot of deserts to cover. It may take a while and be really super hot! But if we don't give up I know we can find it!
|
| Pink Diamond's ship activates.
|
| Bismuth
|
Uh… Steven.
|
| Steven
|
(gasps)
|
| Pink Diamond's legs-shaped ship stands up.
|
| Steven
|
Oh… (chuckles)
|
| Pink Diamond's ship hovers in the sky and creates a shadow over Beach City which many Beach City citizens notice a leg ship. Ronaldo then records the leg ship.
|
| Dr. and Mr. Maheswaran help Connie to get ready for the mission.
|
| Dr. Maheswaran
|
You're going to do great! You sure you have everything? Food, water? Where's your sword?! I can't believe I'm saying that.
|
| Connie
|
It's okay, Mom! This is going to be a diplomatic mission!
|
| Pearl
|
And I'll be with her the whole time! I know the planet! There's an atmosphere. She'll be able to breathe.
|
| The Maheswarans look up at the leg ship uncomfortably as its behind glimmers.
|
| Dr. Maheswaran
|
Alright, be careful! Just come home safe.
|
| Connie
|
Oh, thanks, Mom! Thanks, Dad!
|
| Amethyst
|
(holding Steven's Hot Dog Duffel Bag) I can't believe I'm finally going to Homeworld! There might be more Famethysts!
|
| Greg
|
Love you, Shtoo-ball! Be careful out there.
|
| Steven
|
I love you too! I'll be back before you know it! Lion! Bring it in, buddy!
|
| Greg
|
Garnet, should I be worried?
|
| Garnet
|
Steven… will be fine… (holding Cat Steven) If you could water this for me while I'm gone, it'd be a big help.
|
| Greg
|
Oh, uh-, Sure thing!
|
| Steven
|
(to Lion, hugging him) Don't miss me too much! (giggles)
|
| Steven notices Bismuth and starts walking to her.
|
| Steven
|
Bismuth? Are you ready?
|
| Bismuth
|
I-
|
| Bismuth and Steven look at the broken hand ships.
|
| Bismuth
|
I'm not gonna join a Diamond entourage! I know what you're doing, I get why you gotta do it, but I'm not gonna lay my gem on their anvil…
|
| Steven
|
"Anvil"…?
|
| Bismuth
|
Okay! (places her hand on his shoulder) Let me put this in Earth terms for you. You're about to enter the "lions' den". Luckily, you're a "lion" too! You gotta roar at them in their language; you're the one that has to do it.
|
| Steven
|
Right.
|
| Bismuth
|
Besides, you're gonna need me at the home base. Someone's gotta keep an eye on these two while you're gone.
|
| Bismuth is holding Peridot and Lapis Lazuli's gemstones.
|
| Bismuth
|
We'll be waiting for you when you get back.
|
| Steven
|
Hmm? Ok!
|
| Steven
|
(to the Crystal Gems) Let's go to Homeworld!
|
| Amethyst and Connie
|
Yeah!
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
(sarcastically) Fantastic.
|
| The Diamonds and the Crystal Gems go inside the leg ship.
|
| Steven steps on a footplate to control the legs of the ship. A pink aura forms around Steven's legs.
|
| Amethyst
|
It's a good look for you, Steven!
|
| Steven
|
Thank you!
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Oh, it's been so long since we've been together in Pink's ship. (eyes welling up with tears)
|
| Steven and Yellow Diamond's eyes start to tear up.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Please, Blue. If we could continue…?
|
| Blue Diamond
|
Yes, of course… (wipes away tears)
|
| Pearl
|
(to Steven) For launching, just get a running start.
|
| Steven struggles to maneuver the legs of the ship.
|
| Greg
|
(from outside the ship) You got this, Steven!
|
| Steven
|
Hold on! I'm taking off!
|
| The ship jumps up into the air, then into space.
|
| Steven
|
(to Pearl) I bet when Mom took off, it was pretty graceful, huh?
|
| Pearl
|
Heh… no, not really…
|
| Steven
|
Should I have brought a gift for White Diamond? We are dropping in unexpectedly, and… I want to make a good first impression. Her help will mean everything for the Corrupted Gems.
|
| Pearl
|
Steven…
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Hmph. "Good impression"? We'll be lucky if she ever speaks to us again after this…
|
| Steven
|
But—
|
| Blue Diamond
|
The thing is, White… can be… difficult…
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
When we show up in this ship, it will be irrefutable that the last 6,000 years are now the biggest galactic embarrassment that's ever happened. And we're the ones to blame. (to Steven) If you don't want to be in a bubble for the next few millennia, I suggest you let me do the talking.
|
| Awkward pause.
|
| Pearl
|
Ahem… we're here…
|
| Connie and Amethyst wake up from sleeping after leaning on Garnet. Garnet stands up.
|
| Connie
|
(yawns) Really?
|
| Amethyst
|
(falls over) Ugh, what …gives?
|
| The Gems look out at Homeworld — the planet is somewhat fragmented into large pieces.
|
| Steven
|
Homeworld…
|
| Pink Diamond's ship lands on Homeworld, onto some sort of arena.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Everyone, wait here. Blue and I will return for you, …once White's temper has cooled.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
…Which might take a while…
|
| Steven
|
But—
|
| Garnet
|
Wait, that sound…
|
| Pink Diamond's ship is situated across from White Diamond's body-shaped ship. The arena is filled with various Gems cheering in unison, in a formation of the original Great Diamond Authority insignia.
|
| Steven
|
…Woah! Maybe things won't be so bad…!
|
| A droning sound is heard, and all the Gems immediately quiet down. A white bubble descends from above. Inside the bubble is a white Pearl, with a navel gemstone and a series of scar-like cracks from the top of her right eye and through her left eye to the bottom of her left cheek.
|
| Blue Diamond
|
It's White's Pearl…
|
| White Pearl
|
Pink Diamond, your presence is required.
|
| Yellow Diamond
|
Come on, Blue.
|
| White Pearl
|
Only Pink Diamond's presence is necessary. (glides forward toward Steven)
|
| Steven
|
Uhh, maybe we could…
|
| White Pearl, unmovingly, encases herself and Steven in a white bubble.
|
| Pearl
|
(gasps)
|
| The bubble flies away.
|
| Amethyst
|
Wait!
|
| Connie & Pearl
|
Steven!
|
| The bubble enters and phases through the walls of White Diamond's ship. The bubble is removed and White Pearl phases into the wall behind her. Steven is left in front of White Diamond.
|
| White Diamond
|
Pink! There you are!
|
| Steven looks up in awe.
|
| White Diamond
|
Hello, starlight, you certainly gave everyone a scare. They're all just thrilled to see you safe and sound.
|
| Steven
|
Um, hi… I—
|
| White Diamond
|
As for this latest little game of yours… thank the stars it's over! Did you have fun? (Eyes narrow slightly, voice takes on a slightly menacing tone) Did you get everything out of your system?
|
| Steven
|
I—
|
| White Diamond
|
(dismissively) Good, good… Everyone is so relieved. Welcome home, Pink.
|
| White Diamond encases Steven in a bubble.
|
| Steven
|
…Wait, hold on!
|
| The bubble is sent to a room with pink curtains. Steven looks through the curtains to see White Diamond's ominous-looking ship.
|
