Can you believe it? And she just handed herself in.
That's right.
You caught me.
Galactic Criminal Rose Quartz.
I love shattering Diamonds.
I just want to shatter 'em all the time.
You think shattering's bad? Wait till the Diamonds get their hands on you.
At least everyone else is safe.
What are you doing? Let go of me! [Grunting.]
- Steven! - What the Lars! Oh! Looks like we got one of the humans anyway.
Don't know what we'll do with just one of them, but I guess that's for the Diamonds to decide.
Wait.
Aquamarine, the deal is off.
You were only supposed to take me.
No humans.
That's a human.
[Grunting.]
Oh, no.
Is Rosie upset 'cause her widdle "deal" didn't work? Look.
I'm so moved, I'm crying.
[Laughs.]
Just kidding.
That's my gem.
Topaz, what do you think? Should we let her friend go? I agree.
[Laughs.]
Go on.
Do your thing.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
Not again.
I'll go let the Diamonds know about our little prisoner.
Say, Rose, how do I look? Awful, small, and mean! [Laughs.]
Is that how you flattered so many Gems into joining your rebellion? How cute.
Topaz, I trust you'll still be able to fly the ship despite your you know.
additions? [Laughs.]
Lars: Steven, this is all your fault.
All this weird alien stuff this is 'cause of you, isn't it? Yes, of course it is! That's why I turned myself in to save all of you! Well, it didn't really work out too well, did it? Well, everyone else managed to get off the ship.
So, where were you? I ran and hid, Steven, like any sensible person would do if they wanted to get trapped on a ship.
Oh.
Lars.
Sadie was in trouble, and I didn't do anything.
Actually, wait.
I did do something.
I ran and hid just like I always do.
Just like I ran from the potluck.
But you were abducted.
That's not your fault.
No, I trashed my roll and ran away.
Then I was abducted.
Oh, why couldn't I just let people eat my food?! [Sighs.]
We have to get you out of here.
Here, just leave it to me.
Hey! Look! You have Rose Quartz! Why bother with him? He's worthless! Thanks a lot, Steven.
No! I meant like "worth less", not "worthless" like relative to me.
[Sighs.]
At least I make a great seat cushion.
You feeling cozy, you big banana? I don't think she's listening.
Can you hear me, you What was it Jamie said? You dangerous yellow coat? Of course she can't hear you, Steven.
She's got those big headphones on.
[Sighs.]
[Rumbling.]
[Grunting.]
[Sighs.]
Those Crystal Gems must have screwed up the engine during takeoff.
Topaz, go fix it.
Lars, look for something that can help us.
[Grunts.]
[Beeps.]
[Gasps.]
A destabilizer.
That's perfect! A destaba-what? It's a weapon that disrupts a Gem's physical form.
Cool.
Thanks for explaining.
I still don't know what that means.
Just hear me out.
I have a plan.
I'm gonna need you to be my arms.
Ugh.
Fine.
Lars, pull my pants off.
What?! Trust me! I'm trying to save you.
What if I don't want to be saved? What if I want to stay trapped here and fly around space, and why your pants, you weirdo?! Just do it! [Pants unzip.]
Ugh.
There.
I did it.
Great.
Now tie one of the legs into a lasso.
I can't.
They're on the floor.
What are they doing on the floor?! I don't know, Steven.
What are we doing in space? Lars, pick them up and then tie them into a lasso.
Ugh.
Fine.
Wow.
It worked.
We're back home.
Great plan.
[Sighs.]
Now lasso the destabilizer.
I still don't know what that is.
That.
That thing.
Come on, Lars.
You can do it.
Ugh.
Fine.
[Grunts weakly.]
Come on.
Just one more try.
I don't want to try again.
Lars, throw the lasso! Fine! What is your problem, Lars?! Why did you do that?! Why do you think I'm capable of anything?! You think I can do all this stuff, but I can't! I can't because I'm a wuss, Steven.
I'm just [sniffles.]
afraid.
I've always just been stupid and afraid.
Not like you.
You're always helping people.
You're never afraid.
[Sniffles.]
Lars I'm afraid right now.
I thought if I turned myself in, it'd fix everything, but I don't want to do this, Lars.
I've been to space before, but not like this.
They're taking me straight to their terrible leaders that want to destroy Earth and destroy me for something I never even did.
I just wanted to save everyone, but I couldn't even do that because, look you're still here.
Steven.
I'm sorry.
I don't know how I'm gonna get you out of this.
We'll figure it out.
We've got like a billion light-years till we get there, right? For the first time ever, you're gonna look on the bright side? Y-You don't have to sugarcoat this, but come on, you never do that.
You're always real with me about how much everything sucks.
Okay.
You're right.
This is really, really messed up, Steven.
You know what's even more messed up? Even though you're in huge trouble and it's all my fault I'm kind of glad you're here.
I I don't want to be alone right now.
[Sobs.]
Isn't that awful? Dude, at this point, everything is awful.
[Chuckles.]
[Both chuckle.]
I'd give you a hug, but I can't use my arms.
I could try using my legs, but it might be weird.
[Crying.]
That's so, so beautiful.
[Sniffles.]
Even in the clutches of certain doom, you're happy to have each other.
[Gasps.]
T-T-Topaz.
I don't know what Topaz would do if she didn't have Topaz.
I've always wanted to tell me how I'm helping me through this, but there's always someone between us! They're always sending me on these miserable missions.
I'm always pretending I'm fine with it.
[Sniffles.]
I have to pretend I'm fine.
But you two you're so honest and open so [sniffles.]
I want to help you guys.
What do you need? A way off this ship.
And my pants.
All right.
You can use this escape pod.
I'll set the coordinates for Earth.
All right, Lars, just get in and let it do its thing.
Guh.
What are you talking about? You're coming, right? I can't.
I turned myself in.
I still got to go.
Someone's got to pay for what my mom did.
But you don't want to do this? Dude, forget it.
Let's just go.
- I - Aquamarine: Topaz, what are you still doing down here, you big boulder? We're almost to Homeworld.
[Gasps.]
What are you doing? Look, I can explain.
Um, they had this whole heartfelt thing about being there for each other, and you missed it.
It was so moving.
[Gasps.]
No! Wait! I can't see what's happening.
Are we still escaping? No! Nobody's escaping! Aquamarine, let's talk about this.
Yeah, I-I bet you don't really want to hurt us.
You You probably just act mean because deep down you're afraid you're weak.
Go ahead.
Let it out.
We're all sharing right now.
Topaz, you had one job, and if you're not gonna do it, you're of no use to me! [Whimpers.]
Ooh! So a revolt, huh? And what do you plan to do after this? Go back to the Diamonds? My gem in your hand? I'm sure they'll love that.
You'll be rewarded handsomely by being separated and shattered.
[Clatters.]
[Thuds.]
What was I thinking? That's the problem with you fusions.
Sooner or later, you all become sentimental.
[Rumbles.]
We're here.
Look, just unfuse, and we'll never speak of this again.
[Steven and Lars grunting.]
Topaz, you don't have to do this.
[Grunting continues.]
Wait.
Lars! - Steven, where are they taking us?! - I don't know! - Steven! - Lars!
