* RefreshinglyNormalLifeChoice: Connie grows insecure when she experiences some of the exciting things Steven's life entails (a secret armory, a killer training-bot, a magical pet lion with a sword in its head), thinking that the things she's interested in (like going to the movies) are dull and unexceptional by comparison. Steven shoots this down immediately.
--> '''Connie''': I don't know why you hang out with me! I'm so much more... less interesting than you! And obviously you have some sort of magical destiny. Why would you even care about something like Dogcopter?
--> '''Steven''': Why?! [[MundaneMadeAwesome Because it's Dogcopter! He's a dog, and a helicopter, and a cop! He shoots missiles out of his butt, and he's gonna save the world! Dogcopter is very cool and important... to me.]]

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Amethyst doesn't get why Steven cares about a movie, saying "Who needs to go see movies when you've got magic!", contributing to making Connie feel like it and anything she could do with Steven would be a waste of his time.

She said she DOESN'T swim. Connie swam DURING that episode.


** Connie is alarmed at Lion turning to the ocean because she can't swim, as seen in "Bubble Buddies".

* IrisOut: Over Lion. Has some extra flair to it that makes it resemble the MGM logo. Which is somewhat ironic, considering Turner Broadcasting (and now WB) owns a huge chunk of MGM's library up to 1986, which is when Ted Turner owned it for 74 days, but kept the library when he sold it back to the previous owner.

* GenreSavvy: Connie twigs pretty quick that Steven shows all the signs of being TheChosenOne: "Obviously you have some sort of magical destiny." Also, she figures out that Steven's hand needs to be on the pedestal to activate the gem temple before he does.
