Dialogue
|
| (The episode opens with the faces of Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst, and a scribble on a chalkboard reading "The Crystal Gems", before the "Crystal" is replaced with "Classroom")
|
| Altogether
|
The Classroom Gems! What are Gems?
|
| Pearl
|
Welcome to Gem classroom. I'm Pearl, and today we're going to talk about what Gems are.
|
| (Three gemstones, one blue, one red, and one purple going to the right, appear on a chalkboard behind Pearl.)
|
| Pearl
|
Simplified down to our basic form, Gems are- *chuckles* Well, just gems. *giggles* Our bodies are actually projections generated by our gemstone.
|
| (The gemstones transform into Garnet and Amethyst.)
|
| Pearl
|
Think of it like a hologram, but with mass.
|
| Amethyst
|
Nice mass.
|
| Garnet
|
I know.
|
| Pearl
|
Ahem! Though Gems are extraordinarily resilient, if they're seriously hurt, they will release their physical form.
|
| Amethyst
|
Yow!
|
| (Garnet hits Amethyst on the head, causing her to poof back into her gemstone.)
|
| Pearl
|
And poof back to just their gem.
|
| (Garnet flings Amethyst's gemstone from her foot to her hand, and begins throwing it up and down.)
|
| Pearl
|
This way, they can most efficiently put all of their energy into regenerating themselves. And when a Gem is reduced to its gemstone, it can be contained in a bubble-
|
| (Garnet bubbles Amethyst's gemstone.)
|
| Pearl
|
Or trapped in an object, making it impossible to re-form. But don't worry.
|
| (Garnet pops the bubble containing Amethyst's gemstone, dropping it on the ground.)
|
| Pearl
|
As long as the gemstone isn't damaged, the Gem will be able to regenerate.
|
| (Amethyst instantly regenerates back to her projected form.)
|
| Amethyst
|
Ta-da! Check me out! Ha! I'm as good as new!
|
| Pearl
|
But... If a Gem's gemstone is cracked-
|
| (Amethyst shapeshifts a third arm on her head and begins wiggling her arms around.)
|
| Amethyst
|
Things get really weird.
|
| Pearl
|
And if a Gem's gem is shattered completely, they'll cease to be.
|
| Amethyst
|
Good thing I'm super tough.
|
| Garnet
|
Mm-hmm.
|
| (Garnet summons her gauntlet and tries to hit Amethyst, who quickly dodges away.)
|
| Amethyst
|
Whoa! Not that tough! Waahhh!
|
| (Garnet begins chasing after Amethyst off the chalkboard.)
|
| Pearl
|
That's all for today's lesson.
|
| (Amethyst runs by, still being chased by Garnet.)
|
| Pearl
|
Ahem!
|
| Steven
|
*waving his hand rapidly* Wait, I have a question.
|
| (Garnet and Amethyst run by again.)
|
| Steven
|
What if a Gem is half human?
|
| Pearl
|
That is a very good question! The answer is you!
|
| Steven
|
*gasps* Me!
|
| (The word "Homework" appears on the chalkboard behind Pearl.)
|
| Pearl
|
Why don't you write an essay about what it's like to be yourself?
|
| Steven
|
What's an essay?
|
| Pearl
|
Ehh... Class dismissed!
|
| (The school bell rings as the words "Class Dismissed!" are shown.)
