    Mostly filler but some interesting things happen

    Dewey basically gives up being Mayor
    Steven and Connie aren't talking to each other for most of the episodes
    Lapis runs away from earth (and takes the entire barn with her)
    Peridot is back in the bathroom
    Sadie quits the Donuts shop and joins a band
    and we almost get a big explanation from Pearl.....but Steven had to open his big mouth.
    Kevin shows up again and Connie gets a haircut.

    Sadly Lars of the stars wasn't one of the episodes.

    *locking in coordinates to CN HQ & Sugar's home*

    (What are you doing CF?!)

    Preparing to have FoC Trypticon preform a Death From Above on them as he fires an orbital strike from space.

    (WHY?!?!?!)

    In case either of those schmucks decide not to release another episode for another 4+ months :p

    Yeah ill admit lapis is not really my favorite character after this episode, but I'll hold out hope that she comes back. Actually between Connie taking lion and lapis taking the barn the SU cast have no f**k chill when it comes to breakups. Seriously though I hope they have her come back as this was a rather unlikable note to leave her character on. Anyone else thinks it weird that Steven seems more concerned about Connie then the fact he just survived the diamonds and probably has homeworld knocking at their door about to destroy everything!!!!! I dunno I thought he was smarter then that.

    Can't say I blame Lapis. I don't agree with her 100%, but I do understand her position. After being used, abused, trapped, and made to believe she was nothing but a weapon, I'd be hard pressed to want to be involved in another war. Especially now that she's had a taste of what being truly free is as well as a new meaning to life.

    Regarding Steven being smarter than that. He's still a kid. Your head can be smart, but your brain can still be dumb (er, if you catch my drift).

    Good points, good points indeed. I wasn't saying she was unreasonable I just thought it kinda sucked that she went from having this whole maturation with peridot about earth to going right back to how she was in season one. With how he interrupted pearls possible plot explanation and how care free hes been about the whole diamond thing Stevens once again become the least interesting character on the show. Honestly I'm probably being unreasonable since he's just a kid and all. Sometimes its hard to remember that with how much hes matured since season two. NOW BRING ON MORE DIAMONDS!!!!!!!!!

    Well, more episodes!

    ...And I don't have much to say about them. Can't say I didn't see Lapis freaking out. She's always been the one closest to running away, and justly so. Buuut....
    Anyone else think she's managed to hose herself further? Like, I bet the next time we see her, it'll be in in a jail cell or a bubble someone else is towing around. It may be a bit negative, but I honestly think that ditching Earth was a bad move that'd only lead to trouble.

    Finally, I'm never sure if I talked about this earlier, or if anyone else talked about this, but I think that White Diamond shattered Pink Diamond. We know next to nothing about her, but Yellow is too militaristic to end up murdering somebody, and Blue cared too much about Pink to hurt her. We know next to nothing about White Diamond, so she's honestly the best candidate.

    Pearl knows or did something big, she keep freaking out every time she tries to talk about it or sees a reference to the diamonds. When she tried to talk to Steven, she kept covering her mouth as if to stop herself.

    i literally just got to that part and instantly needed to come here. i'm in the the boat now that...
    ...pearl DID kill the pink diamond under the guise of rose quarts. maybe yellow was just being impatient during the trial?

    got more episodes to watch....

    You're forgetting a key part of the evidence of the trial: There's no way that Rose Quartz, at that time already established as a major threat to the Diamonds' plans, would be allowed anywhere near the highly guarded and protected Pink Diamond.

    Yea but Pearl disguised as another pearl or gem would. Then when close enough she could morph into Rose. Pearl refuses to change shape, but says she is amazing at it, there must be a reason.

    Pearls are considered servants and mostly ignored. Look at how Holly Blue treated her, she was made to walk behind everyone and thought of as an accessory to Sapphire.
    [​IMG]


    Then at the end of the episode Pearl enjoyed rubbing the fact that they defeated her in her face
    [​IMG]
    So this is the downtrodden getting in a smug remark before getting away.

    As Peridot said
    [​IMG]

    Or as they say Pearls Belong to people on homeworld
    [​IMG]
    They are basically servants ....or worse.

    I could see our pearl having deep hidden resentments, and back in the day taking them too far, then immediately regretting it.

    You're also forgetting the cover up. There was a diamond involved somewhere.

    I'm guessing the cover up has to do with the weapon they used to corrupt the gems. Or something they did before they left. There is a reason most gems think the earth was destroyed and why the diamonds haven't come back till now. I'm sure that Pink diamond's shattering had something to do with it, but did they help the rebels do it or do it themselves. But either way Pearl knows or did something big.

    well the shaving (an what it probably means) will certainly cause some interesting internet reactions.


    ....and the Diamond dreams and who Stevoni was having the view point as in them will raise even more questions.
    [​IMG]
    We also get an idea of Pink and Yellow's relationship

    Also the shape of said diamond in comparison to others also makes for some curious posiblities
    [​IMG] [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    If the top of Pink's Diamond is round for instance.......... that could lead to some interesting theories....


    .....was she flawed? Stevoni was small in comparison in the dream............


    Either way she came off as a spoiled child in the scene........
