- Garnet: # We # - # Are the Crystal # - Steven: # Gems # - # we'll always save the day # Steven: # and if you think we can't # All: # we'll always find a way # - # that's why the people # - # of this world # Garnet: # believe in Garnet # - # Amethyst # - # and Pearl # Steven: # And Steven! # This is an emergency! Why is Homeworld stealing humans from the boardwalk? I don't know, but they're only taking my friends! They even got Connie! If we don't do something, they're going to take them into space! And our spaceship got jacked, so if they leave Earth They'll be gone for good.
Ugh! Who were these guys? That little gem I saw before, her name's Aquamarine.
What?! She's got a big friend a fusion, named Topaz.
A topaz fusion and an aquamarine? Are they a big deal? Uh, yes! Blue and Yellow Diamond must have sent them personally.
The Diamonds? Oh, no.
They must be collecting more humans for the zoo! But there's loads of humans on Earth.
Why are they only grabbing your friends? Maybe because my friends are the best! [Cellphone buzzes.]
[Gasps.]
It's from Connie! I know where they are! [Music.]
Stay alert.
They could be anywhere.
Did Connie send you any more pictures? No, nothing.
We know they're here somewhere.
Connie? Lars? Sadie? Onion? [Sighs.]
Why them? [Ringing.]
[Cellphone ringing nearby.]
[Gasps.]
W-Was that Connie's pho [Heavy footsteps.]
Oh, no! [Singsong voice.]
You found us.
[Frantic mumbling.]
Help! Give it up, Aquamarine! There's nowhere to run! [Normal voice.]
Oh, what's this, now? Did you think we were running away? Steven, save yourself after you save us! Huh.
You know, now that I think about it, this Steven does seem to know everyone on our list.
The list did come from a Steven, after all.
Maybe you can help us out.
Just let the humans go! Uh, no.
Who are these dullards? We're the Crystal Gems, you chump! Yeah, yeah.
Rose Quartz's old lackeys.
That was in the report, too.
We're not here for any of you rogue gems.
We'll leave you totally alone if you tell us where we can find my dad.
I don't know what you're talking about! Let's see.
Yellow Diamond asked for, uh, my dad, a Connie, a Lars, a Sadie, a mailman, and an onion, I think.
Six human variations specified in a report by Peridot 5XG.
[Gasps.]
Oh, no, there's lots of humans.
There's my dad, Connie, Lars and Sadie, the mailman, onion I think.
The list.
I gave them the list.
What are you talking about? Aquamarine doesn't have a dad.
She's looking for someone named "my dad!" This is all my fault.
Don't worry about that now.
Our objective's still the same beat the gems Save our friends! Hey, Topaz, look! They want to lose another fight.
[Growls.]
[Gasps.]
No, Garnet, I've moved on, I swear! Ay! Garnet! That's dirty! My spear can reach her without hurting the hostages.
Oh, you're so smart.
Goodbye! Whoa! [Grunting.]
This is getting annoying.
Hey, Topaz, can you remind me? I mean, my memory is perfect, but our orders were to bring back these six humans.
I'm just not sure.
Did they specify alive? You know, I don't think they did.
- Huh? - Jamie.
[Whimpers.]
Steven? I just think, if you care about your friends or whatever, you should tell me where my dad is, all right? What are we going to do?! Steven! Stop! I know where you can find my dad.
Ooh! Where? Where?! Right here.
I'm the one you're looking for.
I am my dad! - What? - Huh? I know what you're thinking, Topaz.
It seems a little suspicious that my dad is also a Steven.
But you know if it means getting out of here, I'll believe it.
Steven! Steven, do you know what you're doing? Oh! Hi, Lars.
[Angry muffled shouting.]
Don't worry, I'm gonna bust us all out with my bubble power! Muh-muh! Muh! Her body's so thick.
[Grunting.]
This might be a little difficult.
[Muffled shouting.]
Time to go.
Uh, Steven, di did you actually have a plan or Just need a minute Very nice meeting you all, and your compliance is appreciated, but our job here is done, so [Blows raspberry.]
[Groans.]
[Sighs.]
Let's get back to Homeworld already.
But I'm already on my home world.
I haven't even delivered all the mail today.
Don't worry.
I can do this.
Ohh! You might want to hurry, Steven.
The threat of us perishing in this quagmire of yellow feels very real a real encompassing kind of real.
A neon death trap, which has imprisoned us so tightly, like a winter coat that's too big in the sleeves.
Lars, stop! I need to concentrate! Ugh.
If I never get sent on another mission to Earth, it'll be too soon.
What an ordeal.
But the Diamonds needed me.
That's the burden of being the best.
Jamie: What justice is there in such a gross tangling of symbols?! Will you stop?! You're ruining my moment! - Steven - I almost got it! [Grunting.]
Huh? [Bubbling.]
[All scream.]
What? Topaz! Get this mess cleaned up.
And, Topaz, help her out.
I'm setting a course.
The door! [Music.]
Huh? [Groans.]
Lars! Lars?! [Whimpering.]
[Grunts.]
Steven, let's fuse! We're already in the air.
How are we going to get back? [Gasps.]
Watch out! I'd really appreciate you wrapping it up down there before we exit the atmosphere.
Come on! Lars, you gotta get up! We gotta move! [Gasps.]
Whoa! Oh! [Grunts.]
Lars! Come on! Help me! Lars! [Grunts.]
[Whimpering.]
Lars.
[Music.]
[Grunts.]
Hey, thanks! Get to the door! Topaz, pull it together and finish this! Steven? Connie, I'm sorry! What are you [Grunts.]
talking about?! It's my fault you were abducted why everyone was taken.
If it weren't for me, the diamonds wouldn't have come for my friends.
If it weren't for my mom, they wouldn't even be trying to destroy the Earth! Steven! [Grunts.]
Focus! [Loud clank.]
What now? - The door.
- Right.
Alexandrite! Take us close to the water.
We're gonna jump! - What?! - Huh? Okay.
[Music.]
Uh, go! Go.
Steven, I-I seem to be paralyzed with fear.
Whoa! Nice try.
But it's hopeless, my dad.
I can't go back to Homeworld without getting what the Diamonds want.
I'm not my dad.
- What? - I'm not my dad! How much longer is this mission going to take? Well, I can end it for you right now.
Oh, really? I'm someone the Diamonds will want more than any of these humans the leader of the Crystal Gem rebellion the gem that shattered Pink Diamond.
I'm not my dad.
I'm my mom.
I'm Rose Quartz! [Gasps.]
No way.
- Steven? - No.
Don't! Steven! What are you doing?! I get it now.
I'm the only one who can stop what she started.
I can stop all of it! You're wrong! Steven, get down here! She wouldn't have wanted this.
But I do.
I'm gonna kick your butt if you don't come down here right now! [Music.]
Steven.
Connie: No! Don't you dare! - I love you.
- No! Stop! Steven! [Music.]
