Why don't they just eat the ice cream off the floor? They don't have to cry about it.
Aw, not again.
It was doing this yesterday, too.
Hang on.
I got it.
- How about now? - It's never done that before.
On all frequencies Peridot.
This is Peridot, transmitting on all frequencies from abandoned crystal system colony planet Earth to yellow diamond.
My mission has been compromised.
My escort and informant are gone, and I am now stranded' Please send help! This is Peridot, transmitting on all frequencies Okay.
Thanks.
Connie says it's on her TV, too.
But where could Peridot be broadcasting a signal that strong? There's only one place.
- Lion, are you okay? - It's as I feared.
It looks like Peridot somehow repaired the communication hub.
Well, at least some of it.
So we just got to wreck it up again, right? - You guys should form Sugilite! - Yeah? Well, uh, it's up to Garnet, I guess.
What do you say? - Shall we mash it up? - No.
But don't we need to be huge like last time? Last time was a disaster.
Last time we fused, Sugilite went berserk.
And it's because of her that we can't even warp here anymore.
I could be rash, you could be reckless, and we could both get carried away.
So, for the time being, Sugilite is benched.
What we need now is to be careful.
It's you and me, Pearl.
Let's fuse.
Don't cry, Pearl.
- Come on.
Let's do this.
- I'm right behind you.
Whoo-hoo! Fusion! Fusion! Fusion! Fusion! Ready.
Hang on.
It's been such a long time.
Good evening, everybody! This is the lovely Sardonyx, coming to you live from the soon-to-be former communication hub.
How are y'all doing tonight? - Great - Giant woman! Oh, my stars.
If it isn't Steven Universe.
We finally meet.
So what do you think? Was I worth the wait? What am I saying? Of course I was.
Wow.
You're so articulated.
Well, aren't you the sweetest little charmer? I could literally squish you right now.
It would not be hard.
Ohh! Sorry.
I'm just so excited to be here.
You see, I haven't exactly been myself lately.
Fusion joke.
And jokes aren't the only thing I've got.
Hmm? Oh! Are you gonna smash stuff with your war hammer? Hmm.
"Smash" is the word one would use to describe what someone else might do.
Now the proper words used to describe yours truly are "specific" "intelligent" "accurate" "faultless" "elegant" "controlled" "surgical," "graceful" and "powerful"! But, yes, occasionally, I am known to smash.
Now, just remember, everybody if you ever have need of the lovely Sardonyx, let Pearl and Garnet know.
I'll be there in a flash literally.
- Oh! - Whoo! Whoo! You guys were amazing! We were? Oh.
Well, that's good.
We were awesome! Why don't we do that more often? Why, pear? Why did you lie to me? I didn't mean to.
Aw.
Pear.
- I'd forgive her.
Wouldn't you? - Mm.
Oh, hey, Amethyst.
You're missing "Crying breakfast friends.
" That's okay.
I'm fine.
- But it's a really good one so far.
- Not really.
Don't worry.
I'm recording it for later.
- It's the signal again! - Peridot! - Pearl, the signal is back.
- Again? - We need to get back out there.
- Right.
Steven, where's lion? Amethyst, get your head out of the fridge.
Let's go, guys.
- I hope you're ready.
- You know I am.
What's this an encore performance? Just couldn't get enough of me, could you? What are we waiting for? Let the show begin! Maybe you're better off with her I think she's better for you I forgot how great it felt to be us guess I got carried away I had to use you to make me feel strong but I don't care about that now I see a tower built out of my mistakes and it all comes crashing down is there something I can do? is there something I can do? is there something I can do? can I make it up to you? Hmm.
Peridot's been back here twice, so the odds are good she'll come back again, right? Bam! That's when we'll get her.
- Yeah.
Bam! - Garnet will be so impressed.
And then she'll think I'm cool again! Mm-hmm.
Nothing more nothing There she is! No, wait.
That's just a weird cactus.
I don't think she's coming.
Uh, what are you doing? If you make your eyes blurry, it looks like there's a little magic sausage between your fingers.
This is stupid.
- It doesn't even work.
- Try this.
Hey, don't mess with my oh! Well, even if we didn't catch Peridot, at least I taught you a great way to pass the time.
- What? - I think I saw something.
It's Peridot's escape pod.
She fixed it somehow? - But I thought we had it.
- Did she steal it from the temple? Whoa.
She's lifting the pillar guys.
And she's fixing the hub.
What's she doing up there? Enhance.
Hey, for some reason, Peridot kind of looks like Pearl? What?! Let me see.
Oh, no.
Why would Pearl rebuild the hub? Maybe she's trying to study how it works? No.
I don't think that's it.
Maybe she's trying to get us more channels? Oh! This is no good.
- W-What's wrong? - It's Peridot.
She must have fixed the communication hub again.
Garnet it's the hub again.
She's evading my future vision.
No matter how many times I try, I can't see us finding Peridot.
Come on, team.
I can't believe Peridot is giving us so much trouble.
But it hardly matters, right, Garnet? We can disable this tower as many times as we need to together, okay? Okay.
I'm ready.
Are you ready, Garnet? - I know what she's doing.
- You do? - Stop! - Hmm? Is something the matter, Amethyst? You You shouldn't.
- Pearl, we saw you.
- What? - You need to tell Garnet it was you.
- I don't understand.
I'm sorry.
It's just so much fun being Sardonyx with you.
Uh! That's why I couldn't see us finding Peridot.
- Wait.
Let me explain! - You've been fixing the hub! It really was Peridot the first time.
- You tricked me.
- No.
No, no, no, no.
No, we just needed a reason to fuse.
I just wanted to share a few more victories with you.
- Those weren't victories.
- Wait, Garnet.
You know, we're so much weaker than you.
Fusing with you is like our one chance to feel stronger.
Don't defend her.
Peridot is out there somewhere, and Pearl's been distracting us with nothing! - Garnet - That's enough! Amethyst, fuse with me.
- But - Let's just get this over with.
Please forgive me.
Of course I forgive you.
Man.
It sure would be nice if things worked out the way they do in cartoons.
Yeah.
It would.
Why don't they just eat the ice cream off the floor? They don't have to cry about it.
