* Since her debut, Blue Diamond's grief over losing Pink has always been at the forefront. But for how much she has dearly missed her "little sister", it's been made abundantly clear that ''she'' was a big part of the reason why Pink left in the first place. Even after discovering Pink's "alive" and getting her back (actually Steven), Blue continues to scorn and shame Pink for doing what ''she'' thinks is unacceptable, only continuing the abuse that drove Pink away to begin with. Steven finally calling her out on it is quite cathartic, albeit bittersweet that it is him and not Pink herself telling off her supposed family.

* Steven singing "Change Your Mind" at the end of the episode. The song flatly states that he doesn't need love or respect from others because he loves and respects himself- but he'll happily accept it from them if they just accept ''him'' as himself.

** Granted Pink Steven is living proof that Steven is ''not'' Pink or Rose, there's an element to it as though Rose were posthumously calling out White Diamond on 2 levels: (A) she's defending that [[MamaBear her son can be whatever he wants to be]] and ([[MeaningfulEcho Letter Number B]]) she's declaring her freedom to be whoever she wants to be, even [[TheLostLenore Steven's]] [[PosthumousCharacter dead]] [[MissingMom mother]].

* Really, the entire sequence with Pink Steven acts as the climax to a major part of Steven's character arc: his identity issues stemming from Rose. Throughout the series, we've seen Steven deal with the fact that so many people, from the Crystal Gems to Homeworld to the Diamonds, struggle to differentiate between Steven and Rose/Pink. It's no surprise that, eventually, Steven himself starts to wonder if he's not just an extension of Pink Diamond, suppressing her memories. And now White Diamond ''hammers'' him with that ''exact'' fear. And then... Pink Steven emerges to prove, definitively, that ''yes'', Steven is his own person, ''not'' Pink Diamond, ''or'' Rose Quartz. Is it any wonder he can't help but laugh joyously afterwards?

*** An understated moment during Obsidian's hectic climb is right after Connie's knocked from her handhold on Peridot's trash saucer and plummets, only to be caught by Obsidian. What does Connie, little human Connie, do as soon as she sees the gigantic Diamond mecha gear up for another attack and the auxiliary Gems have all been knocked out? Brandish her newly-crafted sword without an ounce of fear and tells Obsidian that ''[[TheRestShallPass SHE'S got this]]''. Foolhardy? Yes. Crazy? Oh definitely. Awesome? ''You're damn right.''

After she loses control, White becomes confused and upset, wondering who she even is anymore if she's not perfect.
