Speaker	Dialogue
The episode begins in an area with Blue Diamond's broken palanquin.
Steven	Lars! Are you okay?
Lars	Thanks to your bubble, my bones are only a little broken.
Steven	My bones too. *Holds out hand*
Lars	Dude, those giant ladies were furious with you!
Steven	They're the Diamonds, they've been after my mom for 6000 years, and now they're after me! Come on, we gotta move.
They both run.
Lars	How are we supposed to get off this planet? Do you even know where you're going?
Steven	No, this is my first time here too.
Lars	Oh, this is so messed up. What are we gonna eat?
Steven	There's tons of food if you like rocks for dinner. *Hears a noise*
Lars	Salt is rock, right? Maybe we could season some dirt and make a meal.
Steven	Wait! *Holds out ears.
Lars	*Stomach rumbles* Ughhh, sorry.
Robonoid comes in.
Steven and Lars	Aghh!
Steven	They found us! Run!
Lars	Wait! If we stand perfectly still it won't see us. I saw it in a movie once!
Robonoid scans Steven's gemstone.
Lars	That sounds good!
Robonoid prepares to attack.
Steven	We should probably move!
Steven and Lars	Aghh!
Lars	I think that movie... was about dinosaurs.
Steven	Lars, come on!
Lars	Woah!!
They both run around the corner.
Lars	What are we gonna do? What's gonna happen?
Steven	We're gonna run, and we're gonna be okay!
Lars	No! You just don't get it. I hate being scared all of the time! I was scared of everything except baking. Actually, I was scared of that too. I never even tried baking baklava because it looked so hard! I never had the guts to stick up for anybody. Not even me! And now I'm hiding again like a big cowardly loser under some space building!
Steven	Don't beat yourself up like that Lars. That's what the killer robots are for.
Rutile Twins	Quickly! Down here!
Lars	Steven? What if it's a trap?
Steven	Uhh, I don't think we have a choice!
Steven and Lars jump down the hole. Once they reach the bottom, they shiver and sigh in relief.
Lars	Close one, huh?
Steven	Ha, yeah. But, who..?
Rutile Twins	Don't worry, you're safe now! We're not gonna hurt you.
Lars	Thank you! Whoever... you...
The Rutile Twins' gemstone glows revealing their face and body.
Lars screams and the Rutile Twins cower in response.
Steven	It's okay Lars. Thank you for saving us.
Rutile Twins	How bizarre! What are they? They certainly don't look like Gems we've ever seen before.
Rutile gasps as the sound of a Robonoid looms overhead.
Rutile Twins	Come, this way. This way, come!
Lars	Steven, wait. Is this really a good idea?
Steven	They seem... different. I think we can trust them!
Lars and Steven proceed through a cavern with the Rutile Twins as their guide.
Steven	Uhm, excuse me, but, uhm, where are you taking us?
Rutile Twins	Somewhere... long forgotten. Where only those who don't belong... belong.
Lars	Heh, sounds like my kind of place. You don't happen to have any fast food joints around there, do you?
They arrive at the end of the cavern, at the edge of a cliff.
Lars	Whoa...what is this place?
Steven	A Kindergarten...a (voice echoes) really, really, big one.
They continue walking through another cavern and the Rutile twins whistle.
Rutile Twins	We're back!
Rutile Twins	Here we are! It's okay to come out!
From inside a kindergarten hole, Rhodonite speaks and climbs outside.
Rhodonite	Oh, thank goodness! I hope you weren't followed! You weren't, right, I hope, you double checked! (sees Steven and Lars and gasps) (scared) You've been followed!
Steven	(comes over and she backs up) Uh, hi. Don't worry, I'm not a threat or anything.
Rutile Twins	It's okay, Rhodonite. Relax. We brought them here.
Rhodonite	(unsure) Can we trust them?
Rutile Twins	Sure. I think so.
Padparadscha appears from behind, startling Lars.
Padparadscha	Everyone, a wondrous prediction has come before me. The twins of Rutile will bring not one, but two strangers to our current place of hiding!
Rhodonite	We know, Padparadscha, your prediction already happened!
Rutile Twins	They were being chased by one of those horrible robonoids.
Rhodonite	Don't tell me you tried to fight those things.
Rutile Twins	No, no, of course not. These two were about to be scanned when we pulled them under. We were just in time.
From behind Fluorite appears, making Lars scream.
Fluorite	Let me see.
Lars	Um..(runs away as she approaches Steven and he hides behind him)
Fluorite	They don't look like Gems.
Rutile Twins	That's what I said. I said the same thing.
Steven	Hi, I'm Steven. I'm a Gem. Well, half gem. And this is Lars. He's all human.
Fluorite	That's why you look so unusual.
Lars	We look unusual?!
Rhodonite	Of course, you do, you can't just walk on the surface like that! You're off color, just like the rest of us here.
Steven	What do you mean... off color?
Rutile Twins	You know, wrong. Not right. Flawed.
Steven	Wait, but I don't see anything wrong with you guys.
Fluorite	Gems like us aren't needed. Padparadscha can only predict things that just happened.
Padparadscha	Here comes Fluorite!
Rhodonite	And a fusion like me is unforgivable. When my-our Morganite found out let's just say we were replaced. But my story's nothing! I mean Fluorite, how many Gems are you now?
Fluorite	Six. Maybe more, if we meet the right Gem.
Rutile Twins	And then there's us.
Steven	You mean, you're not a fusion?
Rutile Twins	We're just a Rutile that came out wrong. We survived because all the other Rutiles ran away when we emerged. We survived... because they were afraid of us.
Lars	Afraid of you? So you've been hiding your whole lives. What happens if they find you?
Rutile Twins	We'll be..(looks at one another)
Padparadscha	Shattered.
Suddenly the sounds of the Robonoids appear.
Rutile Twins	Oh no, no!
Fluorite	Oh...
Rhodonite	(scared) You were followed! They're gonna find us, and they're gonna break us!
Steven	This is our fault! If it weren't for us, you would be fine!
Rutile Twins	We couldn't just leave you there. We had to do something.
Lars	(panicked) Steven, what are we gonna do?!
Steven	Everyone, hide!
Padparadscha	Careful everyone, we're about to be found!
Everyone runs and the robonoids enter the Kindergarten. It begins scanning the room. Steven and Lars hide in a hole.
Steven	Lars (puts his hand on his chest), it's okay to be scared.
Lars stops hyperventilating and looks around.
Lars	Okay.
The Robonoids close in on the Rutiles in the kindergarten and they gasp.
Steven	Oh no!
Lars	We gotta do something! (runs out of the hole)
Steven	Lars!
Lars runs over to the robonoids as they close in on the Rutile twins. He throws a rock at the robonoids and it turns scanning him fully instead.
Steven	Lars!
Lars	(shuts eyes) It's okay to be afraid.
The Robonoids stop, moving somewhere else.
Steven	Oh my gosh, Lars! They were trying to scan your gem! They can't see you!
Lars	Alright, it's time to turn the tables!
Padparadscha	(comes from behind) Human Lars, (he gets startled), I've been possessed with the most marvelous vision! You, human Lars are gemless, and will be safe from the Robonoids, which only target gems! (The Robonoids appear and scan her, finding her gem)
Lars kicks the robonoid away, forcing it to fire the laser at a wall, knocking it over and he grabs Padparadscha away to safety.
Lars	I think that's the coolest thing I've done in my life.
Steven	It's not over yet!
The Robonoids come again, scanning Steven and Padparadscha again and come towards them. Lars grabs a stick and runs hitting two away, but the third one comes after Steven, who reflects the blast off his shield, destroying two.
Padparadscha	Oh! The shield is reflective!
Rhodonite	(scared) Padparadscha, come back, hide!
She freezes at a robonoid scanning her, but Lars jumps in the way, scanning him instead.
Lars	(gasps) Okay...okay...okay!
Lars jumps off and lands on the robonoid hitting it with the stick instead. However a blast emerges from it, and he hangs on.
Lars	Whoa, whoa...(Holds the stick up) Eat this! (rams the stick into the robonoid's blaster).
The robonoid explodes and Lars falls back, hitting the wall hard twice, then directly onto the floor.
Steven	Lars! (runs over to him) Lars! (turns him over and shakes him) Lars?
Rhodonite	I didn't think we were gonna make it!
Rutile Twins	That was amazing! You were amazing! Lars, that was so great!
Padparadscha	We're winning! We're winning!
Steven tries to listen Lars's heartbeat and hears nothing. He gasps, realizing his heart stopped and bursts into tears. The room grows silent. Steven picks Lars up and a tear runs down his cheek onto him. Lars's body begins to glow and turn pink to everyone's surprise.
Lars	(waking up) Ugh.... Whoa, what...happened?
Padparadscha	Oh my, something incredible is going to happen to Lars!
The episode ends with everyone looking in shock at Lars.
