* ActuallyPrettyFunny: In the interest of "combining several human celebrations", the Gems bring a wedding cake, a balloon for a baby shower, and a ''tombstone'' with Andy's name on it to the family dinner. Andy looks annoyed at all this before bursting out laughing.

Added DiffLines:

* ShadowArchetype: In a sense, Andy is this to the antagonist of the previous half hour special, Bismuth. Bismuth was an old friend who had a falling out with Steven's mother, Andy is a member of Greg's family who had a falling out with him. Both have have allowed themselves to become bitter and spiteful over said falling out and ultimately lash out because of it. Whereas Bismuth was a warm, caring person on the outside and a brutal KnightTemplar on the inside, Andy seems like a xenophobic jerk on the outside, but is [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold actually a good hearted person on the inside.]] Both blame Steven's parent for the falling out despite [[NeverMyFault having just as much if not more fault in the situation]]. The difference is unlike Bismuth, Andy is able to ''realize'' his folly and reconcile.

* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Greg has been out of contact with his family for the last twenty years or so, leaving Andy clueless about the Gems, Rose, Steven, etc. Though part of that is Andy never bothering to give him any way ''to'' contact him and neglecting his family while flying around the world.

* DudeWheresMyRespect: Peridot points out that they ''saved the world'' and ultimately got nothing for it.



* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Andy has one when he realizes that his obsession with not letting anything change ultimately caused ''him'' to neglect his family like his accused Greg of doing, as he had a plane and could go anywhere he wanted so he had no excuse for not visiting any of them.



* RealityEnsues: Two sided example: Steven's uncle Andy is understandably upset to see his family's barn given to some random people he didn't know, but Greg has a point that Andy apparently didn't give him any way to contact him.

Added DiffLines:

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Pearl misunderstands Andy when he expresses his anger at the re-purposed plane engine, thinking that he's confused about what it ''is'', then suggests that they all get married after overhearing Andy's negative reaction to learning that Greg and Rose weren't technically married.


Added DiffLines:

* AreYouPonderingWhatImPondering: Andy takes one look at the weird structres Peridot and Lapis built on the barn, their strange appearance, and their "weird jewelry", and concludes... they're a pair of dirty hippies squatting in his family barn. Justified in that he hadn't talked to Greg in years and wouldn't know anything about the Gems.



* JerkassRealization: Andy is bitter than once Greg left everyone else in the family left too, leaving him alone... then he realizes that since he has a airplane he could've visited everyone everywhere.
