Ahh.
Good night, Happy Bear.
Good night, Sad Bunny.
Good night, Playful Kitty.
Good night, Ominous Triangle at the foot of my bed.
[Sighs.]
Whatever.
[Muffled scream.]
Ah! Let me go! [Both grunt.]
Enough of this.
[Sighs.]
What do you want from me? I want to get off this lousy gem-forsaken planet! Huh? Ah! - You have to fix this.
- Wait, what? You're my last chance.
I've got no flask robonoids.
I've got no foot.
I've got no response from yellow diamond.
[Inhales deeply, exhales.]
I know you fixed Lazuli's gem.
Whatever you did, you've got to do it to the homeworld warp.
- Or else! - Uh, okay.
Just Just give me a second.
My mouth gets really dry when I'm scared.
Here goes.
What was that? It didn't do anything! - It doesn't always work.
- No.
No, no, no, no, no! It has to work! I'm really sorry.
[Laughing.]
This was it.
This was my last shot.
[Gasps.]
I'm gonna die here.
- Ohhh.
- Hey, hey, come on.
Earth isn't that bad.
It doesn't matter what Earth is like.
- It's not going to be like anything soon.
- What do you mean? [Warbles.]
[Groans.]
- There he is.
- Guys! - What happened? - Oh, you're okay! - Peridot! - Why can't you just leave me alone? Gems, move! Yah! Ha! Not this time.
Whoa! [Gasps.]
[Coughs, groans.]
Wait, wait.
You You need me.
- I'm the only one who knows about the - Rraaah! What on Earth? Ugh, sick.
There's bits of her all over.
Nope.
She's right here.
And now she's in the temple.
So, these weren't actually part of her body? Uh, whoops.
Garnet, she was trying to tell us something.
Those are just the desperate lies of a gem who's been caught.
You don't need to worry about her anymore.
Come on, Steven.
Oh, I'm so glad this is finally over.
[Sighs.]
[Gasps.]
I'm back to kidnap you! What? [Chuckles.]
It's been long enough that we can joke about it, right? It's only been like an hour.
So, ew, what are you doing with her foot? - Think it's lucky? - Not for Peridot.
[Laughs.]
Well, glad to have you back.
- Um Amethyst? - Yeah? Uh do you think - No, it's okay.
Never mind.
- Okay, weirdo.
If you need anything, I'll be in my room eating garbage.
Okay.
[Sighs.]
Why were you so scared? What were you going to say? Now you're deep in the temple in a bubble and we'll never know.
If I could just talk to you for one more second [Gasps.]
[Warbles.]
Room, I need to talk to Peridot.
I'm the only one who knows about the The what?! Ugh.
No, no, no.
Room, I need to go to the basement.
The real basement.
I know there's a way down from here.
Thank you! Whoo! Yeah! Whoo-hoo! Triple 550 deluxe with no cheese! [Grunts.]
[Strained.]
Yep.
Perfect landing.
Hmm [Gasps.]
There we go.
[Grunting.]
Gotcha! Whoa! the cluster, you insufferable, half-formed, traitor megaclods! Oh, my gosh! You're so cute! My limb enhancers! Where are my limb enhancers?! Aww! You're like an angry little slice of pie.
Stop talking.
I demand to know what this place is and where I Oh, my stars.
You're going to harvest me? No.
I-I mean - Ow! That hurt! - It did? Yeah.
A lot.
- Ow! - Yes! Feel my unbridled rage! [Both grunting.]
Hey! Hey, hey.
- What's that on your shirt? - What's a shirt? Ow! [Laughs.]
That's it! [Both grunting.]
Why are you acting like this? You smashed me into a limbless cloud! You trapped me in your bubble dungeon! And you called me cute! - Nyah! - I didn't poof you.
I freed you.
Why would you make such a miscalculation? Back at the warp pad, what were you trying to say? Why do we need you? What do you know? What do I know? Everything there is to know about the cluster, you pebble.
- Cluster? Wait, pebble? - My mission, the reason why I'm on this sad rock in the first place.
I was to check progress on the cluster.
Just in and out before it hatches.
I wasn't supposed to get stuck here.
But now it's going to emerge and nothing can stop it, and we'll all be shattered! Okay, okay.
Wait, slow down.
Now, from the top.
Emerging, hatching clusters.
- You want to know? - Yes.
- You really want to know? - Yes.
- What's your shirt? - These are my banana pajamas Ow! Wait, don't run away! [Both grunting.]
Nyah! [Laughing.]
Stop! They're gonna see you! Freedom is mine! Wait! Look, over there! Another planet to betray! [Chomps.]
Retreat! - Oh, no you don't! - Eep! - Hey.
- Aaah! - Aah - Get her! You may have won the war, but the battle isn't over, crystal clods! [Laughs.]
- Should we tell her that's the bathroom? - Eh.
Hmm.
Seems I discovered some sort of archaic think chamber.
Roomy, with a fresh hint of Earth citrus.
A perfect crossroads for my escape.
- It's locked.
- Peridot, open the door! [Toilet flushes.]
Uh, if you're trying to flush yourself down the toilet, it won't work.
Trust me.
I've tried.
How did she get out? We bubbled her.
- Maybe we needed a bigger bubble.
- My bubbles are fine.
- I did it.
[Gasps.]
- Steven, why would you do such a thing? Because she knows something, Something that's made her scared.
Duh.
Homegirl knows we're gonna beat her into a green pancake.
No, not 'cause of us.
'Cause of something called "the cluster.
" - Cluster? That's new.
- What else did she tell you? - That's all I got.
- That's right, you dirt bombs! You don't even know what's coming.
Oh! I'm tired of playing these games.
If we can't fight her, then fine.
- We'll talk.
Peridot! - Whoa! All right, no more fighting.
Let's just have a civil conversation.
As if I'd negotiate with you, filthy war machine! - Okay, let's kick her butt.
- Wait! Peridot: Yeah, destroy me again.
And have fun trying to talk to me when I'm in a bubble.
[Grunts.]
I really hate to say it, but unfortunately, if she has information, she's more valuable to us like this.
This is going to be tricky.
[Shower runs.]
Peridot: Hot, hot, hot, hot! You have to turn the knob the other way for cold.
Wait, so we're just gonna let her live in my bathroom? Well, yes.
What other option do we have? Keep her outside on a leash? [Laughs.]
- Hmm.
- But I need to use the bathroom.
- Right now? - Yeah, kinda.
Just go in the ocean, bro.
Psssh! Like a fish.
What's with you guys and making me pee outside?! Well, I have fun doing it.
Oh, but even if we do get her to come out of the bathroom she's never gonna talk to us.
[yawns.]
Garnet: Looks like there's not much else we can do right now.
We have her in Peridot, can I come in? I need to get ready for the day.
- Peridot: No.
- I have something for you.
Garnet: If it has anything to do with the experiment she was conducting in the kindergarten, then very.
What a great souvenir of that other time you assaulted me.
Oh, right.
Sorry.
I can take it back.
No, it's too late.
You wouldn't happen to have the rest? Uh, sorry.
We lost them.
Well, we kind of threw them away.
Can you pass me that? - Is this a weapon? - Only for cavities.
- Hmm.
- Thanks.
- Is that a weapon? - No.
That's a comb I never use.
Is that a weapon? Hmm? Oh, well, I guess if you get it wet and roll it up.
Aah! Look, I know you're scared, but I'm not going to hurt you.
And whatever's going on, whatever the cluster is, I wanna help.
I doubt you can help me.
But I appreciate the offer.
Now, do you mind moving? I have to use that.
For what?
