"We Need to Talk" Here's all the Orange Magic Orchestra ones.
Great, put them in the transcendental space rock pile.
At home, we only have classical music And movie soundtracks.
I've never heard any of these.
You've never heard the Philosophy Majors? Oh, man.
Give it here.
This will really knock your socks off.
- Come on.
- Whoa! - You two can fuse?! - Uh yes? Uh, uh, uh, that's in incredible! Since when? Wait, how is this even possible? The Gems think it's 'cause I'm half-human.
Please don't tell my parents, Mr.
Universe.
They don't know I've been doing magic stuff with Steven.
I can't tell them.
They're not going to understand I Whoa, whoa, it it's okay.
I may be the only human being on the planet - who's gonna understand.
- W-What do you mean? - Yeah, what do you mean? - Well Story! Come on.
We're ready.
I didn't think I'd be telling you this so soon.
Probably best to start with this.
Everybody ready? What can I do for you? What can I do that No one else can do? What can I do for you? What can I do for you? Human man You are so much fun I hadn't planned on finding you quite this entertaining - # I like your band # - Whoo! And I like your song I like the way human beings play I like playing along Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa-ho What can I do for you? What can I do that No one else can do? What can I do for you? What can I do for you? Tsk.
I can't believe I got that on video! - What on Earth was that?! - That was Rainbow Quartz.
Pearl thought a fusion might give your video a little something extra.
Pretty cool, right? I have to go, but are you doing anything later? You know I'm not.
You're adorable, Mr.
Universe.
- See you later.
- Bye Hey, I hit the drums, so pay up.
Here you go.
You're just a phase.
You know that, right? No.
I actually don't know that, Pearl.
Well, of course you don't.
You don't know anything about Rose.
- I know she's super into me.
- Listen Mr.
Universe.
Rose may find you charming, but that's only because you're human.
- You're a novelty at best.
- What makes you so sure? Oh it's very simple.
Humans can't fuse.
Fusion is the ultimate connection between Gems.
And you are not a Gem.
Well, has any human ever tried fusing with a Gem? - Uh, no, I-I don't think so.
- Well, then, I will try! Aw, geez, what am I doing? These things are expensive.
Oh, geez! How did she get her legs to do that? Hey.
Are you dead? What? Oh, no no.
I'm alive.
Whoa, cool! It's us from before.
Yeah, I was just trying to get my head around - this fusion dance.
- A fusion dance ain't about your head! Wait, you guys are Gems.
You've got to help me out here.
I need to be able to fuse with Rose.
First, you need the gem at the core of your being.
Then you need the body that could turn into light.
Then you need the partner who you trust with that light.
- Metaphorically? - Literally.
Shh.
Come on.
I still want to see him try.
Ugh, so it's true.
I really can't do it.
I'm kidding myself with this.
I'm never gonna be a Gem.
Amethyst, give us some privacy! Yeah! Let me tell you something, Mr.
Universe.
I think you can do it.
But it won't work if you dance like Pearl.
You have to dance like you.
You have to fuse your way.
Get open.
Get honest.
Invent yourselves together.
That's fusion.
I think I get it.
What's all this? - We We didn't fuse.
- What?! You can't fuse.
- You're a human - I know! That's the problem! I'm just a human.
That's not a problem.
I love humans.
- You're all so funny.
- Ugh.
Look, these last few months have been great.
- Oh, yes.
- But I'm getting a little - worried about the future.
- Oh, just ask Garnet.
I'm starting to wonder if you respect me? - Oh, you're hilarious, Mr.
Universe.
- Rose, please! Can you just talk to me for one second like a real person?! I'm not a real person.
I thought Haven't we - Is this not how it works? - Oh.
Oh, boy.
This is so weird.
You really are an alien.
Why are you laughing? Why are you crying? - How are we gonna make this work? - Fusion? No, "us.
" We're really, really different.
What do we do now? Let's just talk.
- I barely know you.
- That's a good thing.
We really rushed into this.
Everything on Earth seems fast to me.
- Do you miss your home planet? - No.
Never.
How did you end up with, uh, harpo, groucho, and chico? Huh? Oh, them.
Those are three long stories.
- What are they doing? - Shh! Have you loved other humans? Have you? - Yes.
- Yes.
Have you ever been in love with a human? - How would I know? - It's torture.
- Greg.
- Rose.
- Is this torture? - The worst.
- I'm so sorry.
- Huh? No! Don't be.
What?! Why not?! - Oh, I'm so confused! - Me, too.
Well, uh, this is good.
We've got one thing in common.
Ha! Ohh! Why are they still dancing? I-I-It didn't work.
- Yes, it did.
- What?! - It worked.
- I think this one's my favorite.
I think he's her favorite, too.
- Whoa.
- So, you guys were never able to fuse? Uh, no.
But that wasn't as important as talking to each other.
Look, humans and Gems it's still some pretty new territory.
You're gonna have to work it out together.
And, Connie, if you ever need to talk to another human being about this, you can always talk to me.
- Mm.
- Human beings? - Human beings.
- Human beings
