* NeverTrustATitle: The title "Swim Suit" promises a BeachEpisode, and the episode begins with Star and Marco preparing for a day at the beach. The main plot, however, is Star mediating between Eclipsa and Rhombulus as they argue over whether to free Globgor or not. The title alludes instead to the minor subplot of Marco looking for his swim trunks.
