%%Coming out on TV sometime in December!
Greg and the Gems take Steven on a vacation to help him relax.
----
!!Tropes:
* AdultFear:
** Greg and the Gems think Steven is upset with something that happened in Homeworld. Therefore, Greg is convinced that there is nothing he can do about the situation, while the Gems know there is a lot of bad things that may have happened, but Steven refuses to talk with them. When they find out that Connie has been ignoring Steven, Greg actually smiles because it's something he can help with.
** Steven thinks that if the Gems and Greg find out about the fight, they'll take Connie's side of the argument because he fears that they're just as upset as Connie is for him giving himself up to Homeworld.
* CallBack: Pearl covered her mouth when Eyeball revealed in "Back to the Moon" that Rose shattered Pink Diamond. In this episode, Pearl has trouble revealing some truths about the war and the Diamonds because she can't help covering her mouth before she can confess.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: When Pearl reads the "remove all shoes before entering" rule, she [[LiteralMinded looks down at the pair of shoes next to the doorway and throws them out into the yard]].
* DramaticallyMissingThePoint: Greg and the Gems think Steven is being distant because of trauma from his capture and subsequent escape from Homeworld, but his primary concern is his relationship with Connie. It's only when Steven finally admits what's bothering him that Greg is able to help.
* FlatWhat: Pearl's initial reaction when Steven screams "Connie hates me!"
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Ronaldo was in the middle of a long series of texts to Steven about ''Koala Princess'', which suddenly stop when Steven gets to the vacation home. Turns out Steven's phone doesn't get any service there.
* FreezeFrameBonus: Ronaldo sends a series of on-screen texts to Steven, part of which get voice overs, but others you'd need to pause to read. In the last one, Ronaldo mentions assuming something went wrong until he went to Steven's house and found a "gone vacationing" sign--after breaking in through a window and taking his ''Koala Princess'' boxset back.
* GaggingOnYourWords:
** Pearl keeps abruptly covering her mouth when she tries to talk about what she did during the war and about the Diamonds.
** The first time Steven tries to explain why he didn't bring up Connie, he muffles his voice and wanders off while saying he was "embarrassed".
-->'''Greg:''' You were... ''embroidered''? Embroiled? ''Emboldened'' to talk to your old man about your problems?
* HopeSpot: Greg tells Steven that there's no phone service at the ranch, leading Steven to realize that maybe Connie ''has'' been texting him back, he just hasn't received them. Cue a mad dash for a spot where he gets service, almost falling off a cliff doing so... and no, turns out she really hasn't been texting him back.
* ImplausibleDeniability: After Steven finally admits his problems with Connie to Pearl, Amethyst, Greg, and Garnet burst out onto the porch with this dialogue:
-->'''Greg''': We weren't listening!\\
'''Garnet''': Also, continue, Steven.
* MundaneLuxury: Greg talks up the rented vacation home by saying it has a refrigerator with a water dispenser, an analog wall clock, and four windows. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in that the conditions say they're not allowed to use any of those.
* NonNudeBathing: Downplayed. When Greg and Garnet are enjoying the hot tub, Greg is dressed in a swimsuit while Garnet is in her usual outfit. Justified in that her attire is technically a part of her body. Played straight when Steven gets in still wearing his clothes with his phone in a plastic bag.
* OffscreenCrash: While Pearl is fighting "Party Guy", we hear a lot of crashing from inside the cabin.
* OneDialogueTwoConversations: Garnet tells Steven she knows what's troubling him, which he takes to mean is about Connie, but she starts talking about Rose shattering Pink Diamond. Steven quickly ends the conversation, believing he knows where it's going.
* PhoneaholicTeenager: Steven obsessively watching his phone in case Connie responds to him makes him appear like one, and since he was so reluctant to explain his situation to the others, this is how he came off.
-->'''Amethyst''': So, you're really into phones now?
* PoorCommunicationKills: Steven isn't willing to tell his guardians about the fight he and Connie had, because he thinks they're also angry at him for his sacrifice and will take Connie's side of the argument. Unfortunately, he isn't able to hide his downcast attitude from Greg or the Gems, so they think he's upset about the stuff that happened while he was on Homeworld. They're only able to help once Steven finally admits the problem.
* {{Portmanteau}}: One of Ronaldo's texts about ''Koala Princess'' mentions the show has "koalore", though the voice over reads it as "koala lore".
* PunnyName: The vacation house Greg rents is called "Cool Ranch".
* ReadingTheStageDirectionsOutLoud: Garnet demonstrates that the proposal for the trip was rehearsed as she speaks the physical directions out loud when helping Greg convince Steven to go on vacation. And that Greg told her to say it with more enthusiasm.
* RunningGag: Ronaldo texting Steven about ''Koala Princess''.
* SpaceX: Steven brushes off his dispirited attitude as "space lag".
* SmashToBlack: The episode ends without an IrisOut as everyone admires the night sky.
* TakeThat: The online vacation home rental service Greg uses recommends a house that has lots of ridiculous rules (no using the fridge water filter, windows, or ''the analog clocks''), but nonetheless has a ''snake'' crawling around inside.
* TongueTied: It seems that Pearl has some kind of reflex preventing her from talking about the Gem War.
* UnfortunateItemSwap: A scene begins on Steven so distracted that he doesn't realized he's washing a dish with dishsoap still in the bottle.
* TheUnReveal:
** Garnet offers to explain the Gem War to Steven again but with more detail, but Steven turns it down, believing he already knows what he needs to know and is more concerned about Connie. Notably Bismuth's silhouette is there, Rose's isn't, two previously unseen Crystal Gems are seen with the group, and they're all surrounding someone who bears a distinct resemblance to Pink Diamond as seen on her moonbase mural.
** Pearl once again hints at knowing more about Homeworld than she's let on, but can't manage to spit it out before Steven reveals he's upset about Connie, not his Homeworld adventure.
* UnusualEuphemism: A snake that made its way into the vacation home is dubbed a "party guy" by Amethyst, which Pearl repeats.
* VerbalBackspace:
-->'''Greg:''' Oh Steven, of course we're not mad. I'm sure Connie's not mad, either. Well, at least I'm sure she doesn't ''hate'' you.

not every trope that isn't used in an episode needs to be listed as "aversion"
Deleted line(s) 34 (click to see context) :
* SuckOutThePoison: Averted. Pearl gets bitten by a snake they find in the cabin, but because she's a Gem (meaning her body is a HardLight construct) she is unaffected by venom and will be fine. With that said, she's lying back on a reclining chair with an ice pack on her head hours after it bit her, so it still hurt her.

* SuckOutThePoison: Averted. Pearl gets bitten by a snake they find in the cabin, but because she is a gem (meaning her body is a HardLight construct) she is unaffected by venom and will be fine. With that said, she is lying back on a reclining chair with an ice pack on her head hours after it bit her, so it still hurt her.

* GaggingOnYourWords: Pearl keeps abruptly covering her mouth when she tries to confess about what she did during the war and about the Diamonds. However, it seems that rather than being reluctant to confess, [[TongueTied it is some sort of reflex that she has to actively fight against]], as she does try to force her hand off to no avail, meaning that it is ''[[NotHyperbole literally]]'' "impossible for [her] to explain."
