History Recap / StevenUniverseS4E17Rocknaldo

* TakeThatAudience: Ronaldo's "Bloodstone" persona seems to be poking fun at "Gemsonas".

* AccidentallyAccurate: Ronaldo is handing out pamphlets warning people of "Rock People" living in Beach City, who have stones embedded in their bodies, are able to summon weapons from the "Mud Dimension", and can shapeshift. [[RightForTheWrongReasons He is unintentionally describing the Crystal Gems to a T]], aside from mind-control minerals in the water supply and the Mud Dimension thing. Then again, [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight his ramblings]] ''[[TheCuckoolanderWasRight have]]'' [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight foreshadowed things]] like the Diamond Authority and Homeworld's plan to hollow out the Earth, so who knows?

** Ronaldo referenced his "Rising Tides, Crashing Skies" documentary.
** Pearl mentions that this isn't the first time they had a house guest.
** Steven turns his finger into a cat.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Ronaldo "joins" the Crystal Gems for no reason other than the notion that he's an outcast like them, and proceeds to insert himself into every aspect of Steven's life and constantly annoy him, even going as far as claiming ''he'' should be wielding Rose's sword and kicking Steven out of his own home for not tolerating him enough. Steven ultimately calls him out on it, and Ronaldo realizes he was being extremely selfish.
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Ronaldo's "Bloodstone" persona seems to be referencing "Gemsonas".

* SelectiveObliviousness: Until Steven blatantly spells it out for him (and still takes him a minute), Ronaldo doesn't get that the Crystal Gems and "Rock People" are the same.

* BaitAndSwitch: Cartoon Network [[http://cartoonnetwork.tumblr.com/post/157629732935/if-you-can-guess-the-gem-you-can-guess-who-youre teased]] that a new Gem was going to appear. Then it shown to be Ronaldo's gem name Bloodstone.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Ronaldo starts pretending to be a gem, expects the gems to cater to him when doing their duties, gets upset over Connie's presence and claims he should have Rose's Sword instead of her, and eventually kicks Steven out of his own house. It's similar to toxic [[VocalMinority vocal minorities]] in fandom who proclaim a show's values but do little to actually act on them. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Ronaldo's "gem weapon" being a replica katana doesn't help.]] Similarities can also be drawn towards cultural appropriation, and the concept of a self-described ally speaking over the minority group they're attempting to support.

* IronicEcho: Ronaldo being excluded from going on missions echoes Steven's place on the team (or lack thereof) at the beginning of the series, when the gems had difficulty seeing Steven as a gem himself.
