[Open Int. Gem Battlefield]
Steven: This place is even bigger and more weapony than I remember.
Pearl: This was a site of a historic battle. Every weapon here was left by a Gem over 5,000 years ago, I don't like to disturb it, but Garnet said we can't just leave these lying around.
(Garnet picks up a giant battle-axe.)
Garnet: Never know when you might need one of these.
Steven: I need one of those all the time!
Pearl: Why don't you look for one that's more... you?
Steven: Okay! Lion, come help me look.
(Lion walks away.)
Steven: Aw, come on.
Pearl: You really need to train that thing better.
Steven: Oh, we've been making progress, now he looks at me when I say his name!
(Steven begins to repeatedly call Lion's name, in which Lion is digging and ignores him.)
Steven: Uh, sometimes...
(Lion's digging reveals a scabbard in the dirt.)
Pearl: What's he got now?
(Lion lifts up Rose's Scabbard in his mouth.)
Pearl: (gasps) That's the scabbard for Rose's Sword!
(Pearl takes it from his mouth with a struggle and tells him to "shoo.")
Steven: Mom fought here?
Pearl: That's right! And I fought alongside her.
Amethyst: Man, I wish I could've seen it!
Garnet: No, you don't. Countless Gems were broken here. It was a maelstrom of destruction and death.
(Pearl jumps in front of Garnet.)
Pearl: But we won! Your mother led us to glorious victory! The odds were against us, and our hearts were uncertain. But we chose to fight alongside Rose, and here we made our stand against our Homeworld!
(The Crystal Gems warp home.)
Amethyst: This is great! My room's been needing another pile.
Garnet: Amethyst! Help me with this axe.
(Amethyst and Garnet are trying to fit the battle axe in the room and during this scene they are making commotion and talking.)
Pearl: It's been ages...
Amethyst (background): Turn it clockwise! No, your other clockwise!
Pearl: What is it Steven?
Steven: What was mom like?
Pearl: She was courageous, and brilliant... and beautiful... Sometimes, you look so much like her.
Steven: Really...?
Pearl: Eh-
Amethyst (background): Yeah, lift it backwards!
Garnet (background): You mean "pull"!
Amethyst (background): Yeah, "pull", sure.
Pearl: Hey, Steven... Maybe you should hold onto this... (hands Steven the scabbard)
Steven: Woah - thanks, Pearl. If anything tries to eat me I'll bop them with this!
Pearl: That's just the scabbard, Steven. It held your mothers sword. Nothing else could fit so perfectly inside. For all this time it's been... incomplete.
Steven: Well, let's complete it. Where's the sword?
(Garnet adjusts the axe from the inside until it fits through the door.)
Amethyst: That's it! Yeah, you got it!
(Amethyst goes into her room as the door closes behind her.)
Pearl: Can you keep a secret?
Steven: A secret?!
Pearl: Shh! It's a secret, even to Garnet and Amethyst. Rose had a place that she kept hidden from all but me, but you have her gem. That place is yours now, and I can show it to you!
Steven: Uh, okay.
(Steven and Pearl warped)
Pearl: Now it's just a three-hour hike that way, followed by a vertical climb at 90 degrees. Think you can handle it?
(Scene pans to Steven tied on Pearl's back climbing up mountain)
Pearl: I was your mother's sole confidant - for the words she could share with no one else, I was there to listen.
Steven: Why'd she keep so many secrets?
Pearl: She had to Steven! It's the mark of a great leader, knowing just what to keep hidden from everyone you're trying to protect.
Pearl: Everyone except me!
(Climb is complete and at top)
Pearl: Welcome to Rose's Secret Armory!
Steven: Woah... I've been here before!
Pearl: Wha?-You must be thinking of someplace else, I'm the only other Crystal Gem that's witnessed the Armory's magnificence before now.
Steven: Nuh-uh, Lion showed me.
Pearl: The lion?!
Steven: Yeah! There's all kinds of great stuff hidden in here.
(Steven activates pedestal)
Pearl: I know! That's why I brought you here! Now let me show you how you can access the artillery.
Steven: That's OK! I can do it without you.
(Steven walks up and presses hand on Pedestal yelling wham)
Steven: Oh right!
(Steven pokes cheek and activates the room)
Steven: We got some, axes.
Pearl: The Axes of Ages?
(Steven pokes side and activates another part of the room)
Steven: We got spikey chain lady and her metal dealies.
Pearl: The Heretic's Anguish?!
Steven: We got a...
(Steven pokes side once more and activates another part of the room)
Steven: Three pack of laser light cannons.
Pearl: The Quartizine Trio!
(Steven pokes nose and activates the fourth part of the room)
Steven: And.... a whole lot of these armor guys.
Pearl: The Armor of the Fallen!
Steven: What were we looking for?
Pearl: Her sword! Your mother's sword! It's a straight bladed saber that's pink with a red handle. There are vines etched in the guard that connect to a rose-shaped pommel.(shows Steven a hologram of Rose's Sword).
Steven: Oh, I know where that is.
Pearl: Huh?
[Trans. Int. Beach House]
(Steven summons Rose's Sword from Lion.)
Steven: Dadadadada... here it is!
Pearl: Rose's sword, how did it get in there?
Steven: I don't know, but there's a ton of stuff in there, I keep stuff in him too.
(Jumps in Lion, jumps out riding bike)
Steven: Ta-da!
Pearl: But how?
(Pearl tries to enter Lion but he growls at her)
Pearl: Does Lion have something to do with Rose?
Amethyst: Oh... of course! THAT'S why he's pink!
Garnet: It's a little obvious.
Pearl: But Rose didn't have a lion?
(Steven puts bike back into Lion)
Steven: It seems like her stuff in there.
Pearl: No, Rose didn't have a lion because if she had a lion I would have known about it!
Garnet: Rose kept many things secret, even from us.
Pearl: But not from me, I was the one she told everything!
Amethyst: Yo, you're not the only one who misses her!
Pearl: You...! Can't understand how I feel, none of you had what we had!
Steven: She probably just wanted to protect you, like everyone else.
Pearl: What do you know?! You've never even met her!
(Pearl slams fist into wall, which causes picture of Rose to fall. Pearl gasps and Garnet catches it. Pearl looks at Steven and then runs off)
Amethyst: Fine, Go! Go cry about it!
(Pearl warps out)
Steven: Where did she go?
Amethyst: Who cares? I HATE it when she gets like this.
Steven: Garnet?
(Garnet doesn't reply, and Steven wipes his tear in his eyes)
Steven: Is she okay?
(Garnet doesn't reply again)
Steven: Well, I am going to find her.
(Turns to Lion)
Steven: Do you know where she went?
(Lion growls in response)
Steven: I'm going to assume that means you do.
(Steven hops on Lion's back)
Steven: Let's go find Pearl
(Lion opens portal and both teleport from the house)
Garnet: Good luck.
(Back at gem battlefield, nighttime)
Steven: Pearl?
(Pearl notices Steven and Lion and runs off)
Pearl: Leave me alone!
(Steven and Lion chase after her)
Steven: (now caught up with Pearl) Wait for me!
(Pearl runs faster, and jumps on floating chunks of earth)
Pearl: Get that thing away from me!
Steven: You better sit this one out, Lion.
(Steven jumps on close chunk of earth.)
Steven: Okay, I've had a talk with Lion, he's gonna, uh, chill out here, uh, we're alone now, nice and private.
(Pearl continues to jump higher while Steven struggles to follow.)
Steven: Good idea, I'll meet you at the top.
(Steven now at the top chunk)
Steven: This is really hard to do in sandals. Ha, ha.
Pearl: Go away!
Steven: Pearl! Did I, did I do something wrong? You got to tell me!
(Steven attempts to jump to the largest, highest chunk to get to Pearl but falls when he sees her face.)
Pearl: Steven!
(Steven grabs onto a root at the last second and climbs back up.)
Steven: Pearl! Pearl, you have to tell me what's wrong.
Pearl: Sometimes, you even sound like her... Do you remember this place? Do you have any of her memories? We were right here, over 5,000 years ago.
(Pearl creates a hologram of Rose Quartz.)
Holo-Rose: Pearl...
Pearl: Yes?
Holo-Rose: I'm going to stay and fight for this planet. You don't have to do this with me.
Pearl: But I want to.
Holo-Rose: I know you do. Please, please understand if we lose, we'll be killed, and if we win, we can never go home.
Pearl: But why would I ever want to go home, if you're here?
Holo-Rose: (chuckles)
(Holo-Rose offers to hold Pearl's hand.)
Holo-Rose: My Pearl.
Pearl: You're wonderful...
(Pearl grasps Holo-Rose's hand, with the hologram disappearing soon after.)
Pearl: Everything I ever did, I did for her. Now she's gone, but I'm still here. Sometimes, I wonder if she can see me through your eyes. (sighs) What would she think of me now?
(Steven hugs Pearl.)
Steven: Well... I think you're pretty great.
(Pearl begins to cry.)
(Pearl returns Rose's Sword to Lion. Steven pulls out a hat and does a magic trick for Pearl. Steven jumps into Lion and comes out with Rose's Battle Flag. Pearl, unheard, tells a story to Steven while holding her flag. Steven and Pearl ride on Lion's back while Pearl holds the flag.)
