History YMMV / StevenUniverseS3E4BarnMates

** Peridot, meanwhile, is so absolutely desperate to make amends with Lapis that she quickly becomes a pest, especially when some of her presents end up [[{{Trigger}} triggering]] bad memories for Lapis, but her efforts are sincere and it's hard not to feel at least a little bad for her.

* BrokenBase: Were Steven and Peridot trying too hard to make Lapis feel better when she clearly needed space to recover from her trauma, especially considering that Peridot was directly responsible for said trauma? or was Lapis being a standoffish jerk by not even giving Peridot a chance?

** [[TakeAThirdOption It's also possible]] to see ''all of them'' as jerks.

* HeartwarmingInHindsight: If you feel bad about Lapis smashing Peridot's beloved tape recorder, you need not worry: it's proudly on display in their collection of "meep morps" (read: art pieces) a few shows later, showing that the two of them are already laughing about it.

** Lapis is obviously going through a lot as Steven and Peridot try to bond with her, but her dismissiveness towards Peridot's nice gestures, ''especially'' when she smashes her tape recorder (which she was giving Lapis as a gift), comes off as ungrateful.

** There is a third group that saw that all three were unequally unsympathetic and people had lost their sympathy to all three on this episode.

** Steven right to [[WhatTheHellHero call out Lapis for being so callous towards Peridot]], who's clearly trying her best to make amends, but considering that Peridot was the one who dragged her back to Earth as a prisoner (which indirectly led to her traumatizing experience of being fused with Jasper), one can hardly blame Lapis for not wanting to be chummy with her so soon.

* BrokenBase: Was Lapis really a jerk or where Steven and Peridot giving her no personal space whatsoever and disrespect her past?

* JerkassWoobie: Lapis's callousness towards Peridot is by no means excusable, to the point where even Steven [[WhatTheHellHero reprimands her for it]]. However, it is still understandable as Peridot was directly responsible for dragging her back to Earth as her prisoner, and Lapis is still recovering from the emotional strain of being fused with Jasper at the bottom of the ocean (which, again, wouldn't have happened if not for Peridot, though only in sense that she brought her to Earth. Fusing with Jasper and entombing the resulting fusion at the bottom of the ocean for months was all Lapis).
* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic:
** More than a few fans lost all sympathy for Lapis when she crushed Peridot's tape recorder. Ironically, fans are far more upset than Peridot, who was more angry that another attempt at bonding was rejected.
** For those who side with Lapis, Peridot and Steven fall under this for not respecting Lapis and her feelings.
