I just had to make sure I had everything.
I bet Lars will really appreciate this package his parents put together for him.
And MC Bear Bear! To hug if he gets scared.
I'm so excited we're finally going to have a space adventure together.
Steven and Connie in space! I'm not so sure this is gonna be an adventure.
Last time I saw Lars, he was huddled up in a dark cave with some other Homeworld fugitives.
Oh.
Yeah.
Well, I'm ready for anything.
Lion.
You ready? [Groans.]
- Eee! - Oh, my gah.
- We have to stay on task.
- Mm.
[Grumbles.]
[music.]
- Aah! - Waah! - Steven.
- Lars? It's over! I've got you now, you miserable off colors! You'll never take us alive, Emerald! W-What is going on? Captain, I'm having a vision.
We're about to be discovered by Emerald! - W-Wait.
Captain?! - W-Wait.
Captain?! Thanks, Padparadscha.
Fluorite, how are the engines looking? Le-e-t me-e-e che-e-e-ck.
Twins, fire up the nova thrusters.
- Yes, captain.
- Right away, captain.
No! No! Those are my nova thrusters! That is my ship! Rhodonite, everything clear up ahead? For now.
It was a minor inconvenience when you stole my personal shuttle and crashed it on Upsilon 9.
It was an insult when you impersonated imperial officers during a cosmic jubilee.
[Both laughing.]
But to steal my Sun Incinerator is unacceptable! If this ship means so much to you, maybe you shouldn't have left it unguarded in the docking bay of Klavius 7.
There were 67 elite Citrines guarding it! Oh.
I didn't see them.
No, wait.
I did.
They didn't see us.
Oh, I'll get you! I'll get you myself! I'll do it right now.
[Chuckling.]
I'll blow you up to smithereens! Good luck catching us.
We stole your fastest ship! The engines are a-a-all se-e-t.
Twins, hyperspeed us out of here.
- Right.
- Right.
You will not go at hyperspeed! - Bingo, bongo.
- Off colors! Man, she's been on my tail since sector four.
That's like three sectors ago.
Get over it, right? Lars! I have so many questions! Uh, where'd you get this ship? And more importantly, where'd you get that cape? [Chuckles.]
Stole 'em.
Ste-e-e-ven.
Is tha-a-tanother human frie-e-nd? Yeah, I'm Connie.
Happy to be aboard.
You must all be Lars' crew.
[Chuckles.]
They're more than that.
Without them, I'd still be stuck in a cave on the Gem Homeworld.
They were able to figure out a way off that lame old planet.
But we never would have been able to steal a ship without Lars.
He can slip past all the scanners undetected.
Her name is Connie.
And now a few stolen ships and a couple of space crimes later, we're finally on a course toward Earth.
Hey, you know, speaking of Earth, your parents put this together for you.
Oh! Oh, finally! Clean jeans! Oh, man! And my skull gauges! These are perfect! [Sighs.]
They'd didn't have to do all this.
I'll be back on Earth soon.
We are excited about your Beach City.
I look forward to a planet of sand and water.
Yeah! And my house.
And my trampoline.
The Big Donut! And Sadie.
How is Sadie? Oh, really, really good! Oh.
Yeah? Now she's Sadie Killer and the Suspects.
Her band is awesome.
She looks really happy without me.
[Alarm blaring.]
What's going on? Lars? Lars! Lars! Captain Lars, a huge battleship is approaching fast.
It'll be here in just five quads.
What are your orders? I don't believe this.
[Inhales.]
How is she having such a good time without me?! Does she even know I died out here?! Of course she does! She's been worried sick! Already three quads away.
What should we do? We could drop out of warp and ambush them, but that might be too risky.
Or maybe we find a nearby planet to hide on? I'm not sure! What do you usually do? Usually? Usually we just follow Captain Lars' orders! Captain Lars has taken so many risks on our behalf.
We need him! Oh, no! The warning alarm! We're in danger! Do you hear that? Your crew needs you.
You don't get it, do you, Steven? [Sniffles.]
It should be me.
[Crying.]
I'm the one that should be hanging out with the cool kids! She's getting back at me for everything I've done! Do you really think Sadie is living her life just to get back at you? Why else would she be having so much fun without me?! Because life goes on, no matter what happens.
She was so upset when she found out you'd be stuck in space, Lars.
She really misses you, but she can't stay sad forever.
She started hanging out with the cool kids.
She quit the Big Donut all because she needed to do something to feel better.
And look at you! Steven said you'd be hiding in some cave on Homeworld, but you're not.
You're out here fighting for freedom with all your new friends in tow! Are you doing any of this to hurt Sadie? No! I'm doing this because I have to.
I'd never do this to hurt Sadie because - Because! - Because! - Because you're best friends! - Because you're best friends! And best friends wouldn't do anything to hurt each other.
Whoa.
It's here.
An imperial warship has just caught up to us.
- What? - An imperial warship? The Destiny Destroyer! Their main weapons are pointed right at us! Hmm, pulling out the big guns just for us, huh? With a ship like that, Emerald could wipe us out in an instant, if she really wanted to.
Of course she wants to! Incoming message from the Destiny Destroyer.
Onscreen.
[Laughs.]
Did you really think I wasn't going to be able to track my own ship? The Sun Incinerator's specialized nova thrusters give off an energy signature I could recognize from the other side of the galaxy.
Now surrender to me or be destroyed! [Laughs.]
I'd never surrender to you! Blow us into stardust like you've always dreamed of.
Very well.
Prepare yourselves for destruction! Lars, what are you doing?! Drop the shields, Rhodonite.
But that would leave us open to their attack! We wouldn't stand a chance! Trust me, we'll be just fine.
- Now lower the shields.
- But The destroyer's weapons are charged at 90%.
They're preparing to open fire! Lower the shields! That's an order! [Gulps.]
L-Lowering shields.
[All screaming.]
Twins, what's our status? Our weapons and shields have been knocked offline, but Otherwise, we're fine.
We're stillalive! The lasers barely grazed us! Emerald is about to attack, but she's going to miss on purpose.
[Chuckles.]
Bingo, bongo! What do you think you're doing?! [Laughing.]
You really do have a heart, don't you, Emerald? W-What?! You're not going to hurt this ship! You love this ship! it's your best friend.
You'd much rather let it get away than destroy it.
[Giggles.]
Wow, Lars, I missed you.
You're right about that.
I won't destroy my beautiful ship.
But I will make it so you can't get away! Aim for their nova thrusters! [All shouting.]
Evasive maneuvers! If only our weapons and shields were online.
I think she has us this time.
Unless we use that.
That?! No-o-o-t tha-a-a-a-t.
- What's that? - The captain's experimental fighter jet that only he knows how to drive.
It's too risky! We're out of options.
But, Lars, your crew needs you here on the ship.
You got a better idea? Captain Lars, permission to go in your place.
If it's anything like driving a car, I should be fine.
Permissiongranted! Take out the enemy's main cannons while we get our weapons system and shields back online.
Fluorite, how long before we have full power to shields and weapons? Give me fi-i-ve minu-u-tes.
Can they really fly it? If anyone can fly it, I'm sure it's friends of our captain.
[Grunts.]
Whoa! It is like a car! We'll watch your back while you take out those guns.
Now launch! Captain Lars is about to give the order to launch.
Okay.
Launching.
Get in close! They can't aim at themselves.
Roger.
Target within range.
Targeting! One down! That's two! Yes! All right! Everything's almost fixed here.
Come on back.
Incoming missiles straight ahead! It's too late, Lars.
I can't [Screams.]
Steven?! Connie?! Nooooo!
I just had to make sure I had everything.
I bet Lars will really appreciate this package his parents put together for him.
And MC Bear Bear! To hug if he gets scared.
