History Awesome / StevenUniverseSeason5

* Defense Zircon, Steven's attorney, manages to pull a EurekaMoment straight out of ''Series/{{Matlock}}'' and makes a pretty damning argument about why Rose was innocent of Pink Diamond's shattering and instead the true culprit was a Diamond. [[note]]In full, her argument is as follows: Rose Quartz has been a known rebel for centuries by the time that happened, and Pink Diamond had no Rose Quartzes left in her entourage. Thus, Rose Quartz approaching the palanquin would have stuck out like a sore thumb. She would have needed to do through the Quartz guards... but they were absent. The Sapphire assigned to Pink Diamond would have foreseen the possibility... but she issued no warning. Pink Pearl, at the very least, would have been obligated to be by her side at all times, thus she could have called for help... but she neglected to do so, and vanished, and the only one who could have dismissed her was another Diamond. To add a tidbit only watchers, not Zircon, knows: It is stated by Blue Diamond the deed was done with Rose's Sword. But that sword was made by Bismuth specifically to poof, never to shatter.[[/note]] Despite having almost no prep time to work on Steven's case, in a blatant KangarooCourt, she managed to cause doubts for ''Blue Diamond'' on whether Rose was even ''capable'' of shattering Pink Diamond. The ''only'' reason her case was dismissed was because she inadvertently (and possibly unintentionally) accused Blue and Yellow of treachery, implying a CainAndAbel situation.

** And the final piece of Awesome for Zircon was that even though nobody at the time knew it (except for Pearl), ''she was (technically) right'' that a Diamond shattered Pink. Herself

* Ronaldo shows he actually has the bravery to back up his blustering, charging to fight the Cluster single-handed with Peedee having to pull him back.

* The Cluster forming was previously presented as a worst-case scenario, so viewers are likely to be panicking when it turns into a giant arm. But that fear instantly turns to cheers when the Cluster turns out to still be cognizant enough to remember that Steven and the Crystal Gems are its friends, punches Yellow's arm ship, and engages it in one of the most epic arm-wrestling matches ever. Which it ''wins'', smashing the yellow ship as well as the blue one on top of Blue Diamond.

*** Obsidian's appearance is pure awesome. Firstly, they're [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever freaking huge]]. Secondly, they're essentially [[MagmaMan a living being made of lava]]. Thirdly, their Gem weapon is a sword; not just your average CoolSword, but a [[FlamingSword burning-super-death sword]], with their component's weapons combined as the hilt and handle, and their own generated lava as the blade, [[BigFreakingSword the combined construction so large that it takes]] ''[[UpToEleven four of Obsidian's eight hands to wield it.]]'' Said sword is used to cleave the Diamond Mecha's arms asunder. This deserves special mention, as until now modern Homeworld tech has proven impervious (at least from the outside) to everything the Crystal Gems could throw at it. Obsidian? They ''shred'' the ''Diamonds personal ships'' like a hot knife through butter. Obsidian might only be one Gem higher than Alexandrite, which is not even enough to match the size of the Diamond Mecha, but that one Gem being a ''Diamond'', even the (potentially) weakest Diamond, definitely shows that in this particular case... '''size doesn't matter'''.

** Alexandrite unfuses and all looks lost as no one can bear to fight. Garnet then [[UnflinchingWalk strides]] towards Blue [[BadassBoast shouting how she is the embodiment of love]] and grasps at Blue's cloak. Blue scoffs at her and asks if this will stop her.
-->'''Garnet:''' I just needed to keep you from taking three steps to the right.
*** Cue [[HesBack Lapis]] ''dropping the entire Barn'' on Blue Diamond.

** Alexandrite unfuses and all looks lost as no one can bear to fight. Garnet then [[UnflinchingWalk strides]] towards Blue [[BadassBoast shouting how she is the embodiment of love]] and grasps at Blue's cloak. Blue scoffs at her and asks if this will stop her. Garnet replies that she was merely keeping her in place for '''Lapis to make her dramatic return and smash the Barn on Blue.'''

--> ''' Amethyst: Hey, White... dirtwad! *panting* That all you got?!'''

* Amethyst TakingtheBullet for Steven by pushing him out of the way when White Diamond fires her EyeBeams at him.

* Connie's WhatTheHellHero moment to Steven. To elaborate, in most media, TheHero performs a HeroicSacrifice but end up back alive for whatever reason, and are told by their loved ones what they did was brave, receive a very brief scolding, or a combination of both. However, in Connie's short speech to Steven, she completely deconstructs the whole concept: Steven's sacrifice was an ''incredibly'' foolish and risky move [[AdultFear that absolutely terrified everyone since they all thought he was dead]], it proved that he (seemingly) didn't trust anyone else to help him drive off Aquamarine and the Topaz duo, and his nonchalance towards the emotional anguish he put his loved ones through was ''not'' okay.
