'''Amethyst''': Those flowers are lovely!! *screams and cries*

'''Amethyst''': Those flowers are lovely!! *screams and cries*\\

--> '''Amethyst''': *pinned by the Watermelon Stevens and cries in distress* They're gonna put me in the ground! *cries more* Noo! Noo! Aaah!

* AccidentalMurder: Greg accidentally steps on one of the Steven watermelons, though it wasn't sentient yet.
* AlienAutopsy: Ronaldo's attempted autopsy of a Steven watermelon. He was about to take an electric mixer to it, but Steven interrupts.

* BringIt: Amethyst to the melons, when they prepare to attack. They do indeed bring it.

* DisappointedInYou: Steven's speech is essentially this to the Steven-melons, for senselessly killing Baby-melon.

* LargeHam: Pearl, briefly, when getting overpowered by the melons.
-->'''Pearl:''' Let go of my spear, you twerps! I'll '''destroy''' you!
* MookMaker: This is essentially the point of Steven's GreenThumb ability. The animate plants are grown to fight on his behalf, though Steven can't quite keep them under control.

* RocketPunch: Garnet launches her {{Power Fist}}s in this fashion, causing a decent explosion.

* SmashingWatermelons: Natch for the climatic battle with the watermelon Stevens, which takes place on the beach.
* SpinAttack: Hurricane Seed Spit!

* StickyFingers: Onion is up to his old tricks. It doesn't work so well when he's trying to steal an animate watermelon, though.
* WhenTreesAttack: Steven's animate watermelons turn hostile when Ronaldo uses a spatula to keep Steven from taking the one he bought.

* OverlyLongGag: It takes around 20 seconds of screentime for Ronaldo to [[http://keepbeachcityweird.tumblr.com/post/103158164571/check-out-these-weird-watermelon-guys-down-by-the make this post]] on his blog, and Sadie interrupts before he finishes typing.

* SelfSacrificeScheme: Baby Melon stops the fighting by punching Steven, which causes the other watermelons to fight it. Once Baby Melon is no more, they no longer have anything to fight.

* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands:
** Steven's discovers he's able to create plant soldiers, which the Gems say Rose did as well.
** The Gems suddenly display unseen powers (Amethyst's ''Franchise/{{Sonic|TheHedgehog}}''-style roll, Pearl's energy blast, and Garnet's rocket fists) when fighting the melons.

* BittersweetEnding: Slightly more bitter than sweet. Baby-melon's HeroicSacrifice finally stops the Steven-melons from fighting. Steven essentially banishes his creations for what they did to Baby-melon. The gems comfort Steven's decision, who has no regrets that now the Steven-melons will be their own people now. ...And [[BlackComedy Steven casually eats Baby-melon's remains like he would any other watermelon]].

** Steven's discovers he's able to create plant soldiers.
** The Gems suddenly display unseen powers (Amethyst's ''[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]''-style roll, Pearl's energy blast, and Garnet's rocket fists) when fighting the melons.

* InappropriateHunger: Baby Melon, no matter how pitiful it's death is, is still quite tasty to Steven.

* DogPileOfDoom: The melons do this to Garnet and Amethyst, though they have to try several times with Garnet since she keeps knocking them off.

** At the end, Steven takes a bite from the sliced remains of Baby Melon, squicking out the Gems.

* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: The Gems suddenly display unseen powers (Amethyst's ''[[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]]''-style roll, Pearl's energy blast, and Garnet's rocket fists) when fighting the melons. Steven's own ability to create plant soldiers also counts.
