[up][up] Oh, right, forgot about that line. Yeah, people probably fought, though again, I doubt they did especially well.

@Adric: Alright, I say go for it, although you might want to spoiler-tag it.

Alright, so I'm gonna post the descriptions. Nothing too spoiler-y in them outside of the half hour episode (which I will skip, if that's alright).

Crack the Whip: Amethyst takes charge of Steven and Connie

Steven vs. Amethyst: Steven and Amethyst compete with each other while training with Pearl

Beta and Earthlings (for whatever reason there's only one description): Amethyst acts strangely when she and Steven visit friends in the country

Back to the Moon: Steven and the Gems return to the Moon Base

Bubbled: Steven is stuck in a bubble

The Kindergarten Kid: A monster problem surfaces

Know Your Fusion: Steven and the Gems examine fusion

Like I said, nothing in here is really spoiler-y.

I like to think that humans were basically Ewoks.

I can't help but think that the description for Beta and Earthlings is partially about Steven and Amethyst visiting Lapis and Peridot. They're the only friends they have who are in the country.

[up][up] Okay, that endears me to the idea a lot more. [lol]

[up] Seems likely. Lots of focus on Amethyst, huh? Wonder what's up with her...

That's so vague, I almost suspect "friends" is completely disingenuous, and it's someone she doesn't really even know.

"Friend" in the past has been used to avoid referring to Peridot in episode descriptions.

"Friends" is pretty much used for Peridot or Lapis in different episodes. The description for Too Short to Ride didn't even mention Peridot even though she'd long since reformed.

[up]

I meant the three parter after the special.

With good reason. The descriptions for "Jail Break" leaked back when the most recent episode was "Lars and the Cool Kids"! If that one's description wasn't so vague and misleading, it would have had a crazy amount of spoilers.

"Weird" makes me think Amethyst might get along with a certain someone a lot more than usual.

But the episode title, Beta, makes the "weird" sound like a suspicious kind of weird, having to do with kindergardens. I guess that's more likely.

Keep in mind that Beta is only part one of a three parter. Whatever the hell is gonna happen in that three parter, I don't know, but it ain't gonna be good.

Maybe that Amethyst betrayal arc a lot of people predicted will come true?

Clearly Amedot & Lapidot are acknowledged and Fun Mom and Water Mom fight over who gets to keep Smol Mom.

The description for Beta/Earthlings gives me a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. Something bad's going down.

Kay, so, I came across this comic and it made me wonder, what if Greg HAD fallen in love with Garnet? What would have happened to Steven if a pregnant Garnet had defused?

Ha! I can see Greg having that exact reaction.

Speculate something for me guys. Do you think that humongous axe Garnet picked up in "Rose's Scabbard" was a fusion weapon? It's way bigger than any regular Gem weapon we've seen.

It shouldn't be still around though, so maybe there are gems that big.

It totally belonged to a Ruby.

Also, I'm really starting to wonder if Jasper taking two other Jaspers in Gem Hunt was intentional on her part.

[up] Almost assuredly, the way she taunts Steven before walking off into the wilderness, along with what we know about this crew setting up plot points...something going to happen before too long.

Meanwhile, the amazingly silly photoshops continue without apology.

I'm willing to bet that if Jasper does fuse with corrupted Gems as part of her crazy plan, which, even though I don't know what it is yet I'm sure is crazy, she will wind up becoming corrupted herself.

wild mass guessJasper's trying to start a third faction, separate from the Crystal Gems and Homeworld. She's choosing Gems that fit her Social Darwinist views.wild mass guess

Keep in mind that Beta is only part one of a three parter. Whatever the hell is gonna happen in that three parter, I don't know, but it ain't gonna be good. Maybe that Amethyst betrayal arc a lot of people predicted will come true?

wild mass guessRenegade!Jasper will be similar to Amethyst, and Amethyst will be tempted into joining a faction that's all about wrecking shit and doing whatever you want. Jasper will slowly stop being a jerk when she finds a semi-kindred soul on this planet who actually wants to spend time with her, but things will come to a head between Jasper's violent behavior and contempt for the weak, and Amethyst's upbringing with Rose and the Crystal Gems, who value all life.wild mass guess

I actually believe the first one. The second... probably not, but I'd ship it.

Mindful Education: Steven and Connie learn to focus better

Future Boy Zoltron: Steven tells people's fortunes at Funland

Me either. Where the hell is it?

Future Boy Zoltron: Steven tells people's fortunes at Funland
I figured the title was going to be about another Show Within a Show, but I guess it's like "Kiki's Pizza Delivery Service" where the title's reference is just a pun, not really an indicator of the episode's content.
