1. And Steven!
Copy !req
2. Captain's log.
Star date, uh...
Copy !req
3. Thursday.
Copy !req
4. Space is really big.
Copy !req
5. Everything is messed up.
Copy !req
6. Our nova thrusters are busted.
Copy !req
7. And getting home
is taking forever.
Copy !req
8. Hey, Captain?
Copy !req
9. Should we be
writing this down?
Copy !req
10. Uh, yeah!
Copy !req
11. Who wants a party sub?
Copy !req
12. What exactly
are we celebrating?
Copy !req
13. You guys beat Emerald.
Copy !req
14. And you rescued me and Connie
from the Jungle Moon.
Copy !req
15. And you have this
super fast ship,
Copy !req
16. so you'll be back
on Earth in no time.
Copy !req
17. It's only super fast
when it works!
Copy !req
18. Captain Lars...
Copy !req
19. I've finished...
Copy !req
20. rerouting...
Copy !req
21. Power from the gravity engine
to the nova thrusters?
Copy !req
22. Great! Twins, floor it
on the thrusters!
Copy !req
23. Right away, Captain.
Yes, Captain.
Copy !req
24. Aww! Aww!
Aww! Aww!
Copy !req
25. Captain Lars,
don't use the thrusters.
Copy !req
26. We're going to lose power!
Copy !req
27. Thanks, Padparadscha.
Copy !req
28. Hey, if we're going to be
drifting a while,
Copy !req
29. there's somebody
I'd like you all to meet.
Copy !req
30. Are they bigger
than that sandwich?
Copy !req
31. Maybe a few pickles bigger.
Copy !req
32. Bigger than you?
Copy !req
33. I mean,
they don't have to be.
Copy !req
34. Fine. Bring 'em over.
Copy !req
35. Twins!
Copy !req
36. Another... Steven?
Copy !req
37. There's more of you?
Copy !req
38. Her eyes.
Copy !req
39. A fusion?
Copy !req
40. He's going to bring back
another Steven!
Copy !req
41. This is Garnet.
Copy !req
42. She leads the Crystal Gems
back on Earth.
Copy !req
43. Just look at you all!
Copy !req
44. You must be Rhodonite —
a Ruby and a Pearl?
Copy !req
45. That must have been a story.
Copy !req
46. I want all the details.
Copy !req
47. Eh.
Copy !req
48. And you must be
the Rutile Twins.
Copy !req
49. I've never seen
anyone like you before.
Copy !req
50. We were... made like this.
Copy !req
51. Fluorite. Whoa.
Copy !req
52. You're just, uh, beautiful.
Copy !req
53. And here's Padparadscha,
an orange Sapphire.
Copy !req
54. How rare.
Copy !req
55. I predict you're going to make
everyone uncomfortable.
Copy !req
56. It's not nice to make fun
of us like that.
Copy !req
57. Haven't you guys heard
a compliment before?
Copy !req
58. A what?
What's that?
Copy !req
59. You know, it's when someone says
something nice about you.
Copy !req
60. Who would say nice things
about Gems like us?
Copy !req
61. We're completely inappropriate,
and so are you.
Copy !req
62. We should all be ashamed.
Copy !req
63. Aw, Steven.
Copy !req
64. These Gems feel just like I did
before I met Rose Quartz.
Copy !req
65. Rose Quartz?
Rose... Quartz?
Copy !req
66. You met Rose Quartz?
Copy !req
67. And your survived?
Copy !req
68. You guys know about Rose?
Copy !req
69. She was the Anit-Gem —
Copy !req
70. an organic beast that burst
out of Earth's crust
Copy !req
71. and vowed to destroy all Gems!
Copy !req
72. No, no.
Copy !req
73. She was made from a vein
of hyper-defective quartz.
Copy !req
74. A malformed quartz
gone haywire.
Copy !req
75. Don't... be... silly.
Copy !req
76. Rose... Quartz... isn't... real.
Copy !req
77. You have it all wrong.
Copy !req
78. Rose Quartz?
Copy !req
79. Of course that's how
they tell it on Homeworld.
Copy !req
80. Come on, everyone.
Copy !req
81. Let me tell you the story
of the real Rose Quartz.
Copy !req
82. It was Era 1.
Copy !req
83. The Diamonds, unique
in their flawlessness,
Copy !req
84. sought to expand their
perfection across the galaxy.
Copy !req
85. And it was for this purpose
that Pink Diamond
Copy !req
86. chose her first colony,
the planet Earth.
Copy !req
87. On Earth, every Gem was made
to serve Pink Diamond,
Copy !req
88. each with a role to play
in her world's perfect empire.
Copy !req
89. In comparison to their creator,
their existence was ordinary.
Copy !req
90. They were life-forms
only meant to fit their mold,
Copy !req
91. and no one had ever dared
to think otherwise —
Copy !req
92. until there was Rose Quartz.
Copy !req
93. In stature, she was no different
than any other Quartz,
Copy !req
94. and for a time, she did her best
Copy !req
95. to carry out
her Diamond's bidding.
Copy !req
96. However, she began to take
notice of her strange colony
Copy !req
97. and the life that existed there.
Copy !req
98. Curiosity
turned to appreciation.
Copy !req
99. Appreciation
turned to fondness.
Copy !req
100. And fondness... turned to love.
Copy !req
101. Soon she was unable
to keep her findings secret,
Copy !req
102. and she began asking
her fellow Gems
Copy !req
103. if they knew
of the life on Earth
Copy !req
104. and what they made of it.
Copy !req
105. She continued to pry her
fellow kindergartners
Copy !req
106. with questions so odd
Copy !req
107. that word of her eventually made
its way to Pink Diamond.
Copy !req
108. Rose Quartz
was summoned at once.
Copy !req
109. "Quartz," began Pink Diamond,
Copy !req
110. "What have you been
saying down there?"
Copy !req
111. "Why, Diamond," Rose pleaded,
Copy !req
112. "It has come to my attention
that your colony,
Copy !req
113. Earth, bears life.
Copy !req
114. While I know these organic
life-forms serve no purpose,
Copy !req
115. I ask that we leave this planet
and spare their lives."
Copy !req
116. Pink Diamond thought
for a moment
Copy !req
117. and then laughed,
a wicked, empty sound.
Copy !req
118. "You wish to save
these life-forms
Copy !req
119. at the expense of our own?
Copy !req
120. Ha! Don't be absurd.
Copy !req
121. Return to your post, and I will
forget your insolence."
Copy !req
122. And with that, Rose Quartz
was dragged back
Copy !req
123. to her kindergarten for duty.
Copy !req
124. Only Rose could no longer
stand to continue
Copy !req
125. aiding in the destruction
of Earth.
Copy !req
126. She had no choice.
Copy !req
127. She had to fight.
Copy !req
128. "Is this what you want —
to inject, to build?
Copy !req
129. I've seen the life that exists
for itself, and it lives here.
Copy !req
130. Will you destroy it,
or will you join it?"
Copy !req
131. Rose's message
began to resonate,
Copy !req
132. to Pink Diamond's dismay.
Copy !req
133. Her colony was falling apart.
Copy !req
134. So, like a coward, she called
for her Diamond allies,
Copy !req
135. Yellow and Blue, to help.
Copy !req
136. But Rose also found herself
with allies,
Copy !req
137. other Gems that were cast out
for being wrong —
Copy !req
138. a Pearl who belonged
to no one...
Copy !req
139. a Bismuth who built
weapons for rebels
Copy !req
140. instead of towers for tyrants...
Copy !req
141. an entirely new fusion
for not power but for love...
Copy !req
142. and countless others,
all inspired by Rose
Copy !req
143. to live for ourselves on Earth.
Copy !req
144. She was our leader.
Copy !req
145. And Earth was our precious home.
Copy !req
146. And those who fought to save it
became known as...
Copy !req
147. the Crystal Gems!
Copy !req
148. Unbelievable.
Copy !req
149. There were Gems like us?
Copy !req
150. Fighting.
Copy !req
151. For... their... freedom?
Copy !req
152. Yes, and we were fearless.
Copy !req
153. It was an impossible fight,
but we fought anyway.
Copy !req
154. And the more Gems who saw us,
the more who joined.
Copy !req
155. But Pink Diamond's forces
proved too strong.
Copy !req
156. Rose feared that soon she would
have nothing left to protect.
Copy !req
157. Rose Quartz
drew her rebel blade...
Copy !req
158. and shattered Pink Diamond,
Copy !req
159. saving the Earth for all time
from her reign of terror.
Copy !req
160. Wow! That's incredible!
I don't believe it!
Copy !req
161. Your mom did all that?
Copy !req
162. That's awesome!
Copy !req
163. Wait. What about the rest?
Copy !req
164. What happened after that?
Copy !req
165. The other Diamonds were furious.
Copy !req
166. In a last-ditch attempt
to wipe out the rebellion,
Copy !req
167. the Diamonds launched
a direct attack against Earth,
Copy !req
168. and in their fury, they used
their powers to end the fighting
Copy !req
169. once and for all.
Copy !req
170. I predict this story
won't have a happy ending.
Copy !req
171. We were all told
different stories.
Copy !req
172. But they all ended
the same way.
Copy !req
173. With Rose Quartz...
Copy !req
174. being... defeated.
Copy !req
175. This new version of the story
is even worse!
Copy !req
176. So, she was great,
and they beat her?
Copy !req
177. What are we supposed
to get out of this —
Copy !req
178. that we can never win?
Copy !req
179. We haven't yet, but we can,
Copy !req
180. and we will.
Copy !req
181. They said they annihilated
Rose's rebellion,
Copy !req
182. but here we are.
Copy !req
183. They said they annihilated
all of you on Homeworld,
Copy !req
184. but here you are.
Copy !req
185. They think they have us
on the run,
Copy !req
186. but they're the ones that are
running from the truth.
Copy !req
187. And the truth is
Copy !req
188. we... are... everywhere!
Copy !req
189. But how many more of us
can there be?
Copy !req
190. Way more than you think!
Copy !req
191. I was only on Homeworld
for, like, an hour
Copy !req
192. before I ran in to you guys.
Copy !req
193. There must be Off Colors
all over the place.
Copy !req
194. Rose used to say there
was something about Earth —
Copy !req
195. something that set Gems free.
Copy !req
196. But it's not just Earth.
Copy !req
197. Look at you.
Copy !req
198. Love, freedom —
it's universal.
Copy !req
199. You all prove it every moment
you live as yourselves.
Copy !req
200. You can show everyone.
Copy !req
201. We... can do that?
Copy !req
202. Not while we're floating
out here like sitting ducks.
Copy !req
203. Fluorite, let's take
another look at that engine.
Copy !req
204. - Yes!
- Okay!
- Yeah!
Copy !req
205. Lars.
Copy !req
206. Before we can activate
the thrusters,
Copy !req
207. we're going to need
to restart the core.
Copy !req
208. How do we do that?
Copy !req
209. We'll figure it out
together.
Copy !req
210. Hey, uh, Garnet?
Copy !req
211. When Connie and I were stranded
on the Jungle Moon, I —
Copy !req
212. we — saw something...
Copy !req
213. a vision... of...
Pink Diamond.
Copy !req
214. Hmm.
Copy !req
215. When Blue Diamond
came to Earth,
Copy !req
216. I had dreams where
I saw through her eyes
Copy !req
217. and I was crying her tears.
Copy !req
218. If I'm having the same dreams
about Pink Diamond,
Copy !req
219. what if that means
she's still out there?
Copy !req
220. She's gone, Steven.
Copy !req
221. Your mother
made sure of that.
Copy !req
222. But I felt such
a strong connection.
Copy !req
223. You have empathetic powers
that other Gems don't have.
Copy !req
224. You're unusual, Steven,
like them and like me.
Copy !req
225. It's not something to fear.
Copy !req
226. It's something to celebrate.
Copy !req
227. Come on, come on.
Copy !req
228. Oh, strange.
Copy !req
229. The core should have
come online by now.
Copy !req
230. I predict that Captain Lars will
be pressing the wrong button.
Copy !req
231. Oh.
Copy !req
232. Yes! We did it!
Copy !req
233. Does that mean you can
get back to Earth?
Copy !req
234. Not... quite.
Copy !req
235. The nova thrusters
still need... repairs.
Copy !req
236. We can hit up the nearest
colony for parts.
Copy !req
237. Rhodonite, tell me
there's one nearby.
Copy !req
238. Well, we aren't far from one of
Yellow Diamond's asteroid mines.
Copy !req
239. But that place will be
crawling with Agates, Captain.
Copy !req
240. It's incredibly dangerous.
Copy !req
241. So are we.
Copy !req
242. Let's show 'em!
Copy !req
