Okay the fact that Steven and Amethyst were fighting trying to prove that each was the worst was pretty dang amusing.

Also I really love Amethyst with a ponytail, kinda wish they'd keep that.

[up] If she reforms between now and the season finale, she probably will keep the ponytail. I liked it in this episode, so I'll like it if it becomes her new look.

Also, WOW, 1500 pages! surprised I didn't expect the TV Tropes forum to have the biggest forum topic on the show outside of sites made for the show.

Gem trivia: Amethyst previously wore her hair in a ponytail in the episode "Beach Party".

Am I the only one hoping she becomes a collector of merchandise of The Greys?
Little Green Men, not The Greys. She's into LGM's because she basically is one.

Peridot is also much younger than Jasper.
Experience is the only meaningful way to measure a gem's "age" in terms of maturity. Peridot's clearly learned more from coming to Earth than all the time before then, whether that was three years or three thousand.

Peridot's Twitter hasn't updated for a few episodes. Last one was Alone At Sea.
Her last post implied she was busy giving emotional support to Lapis. She presumably still is.

Or maybe she's already in mid-peril, you clods.

Does Pearl's hair look crazier in this episode to anyone else?
Zuke likes the crazy hair (but so do I).

Uh guys, I was just looking at some photos of Amethyst in this episode, and I noticed that her eye looked a bit off through the whole thing.

Any thoughts?

The SU subreddit designates spoiler posts as NSFW.

They usually lift that restriction a few days after the episode airs. I think even Burnett's praised their spoiler system.

Steven growing spikes on his shield reminds me of how he could Counter-Attack with them in Attack the Light.

Ah, right. Forgot that trope.

You know, I did think that something was off about Amethyst's appearance in this episode, although I couldn't put my finger on why.

I think it's most likely a subtle indication that she rushed her regeneration.

What if whatever happens in Beta isn't a betrayal but that Amethyst's regeneration is falling apart?

I figured it was just a nervous tic. Sign of agitation, that sort of thing.

I thought something was off...oh well.

May just be coincidence, because it didn't look like that at the end of the previous episode.

She just has dust in her eye.

I don't know. I remember how she degraded after getting her gem cracked, but I don't think there's a precedent for a bad regeneration, not counting when Amethyst intentionally tried to change herself in "Reformed".

Just remember, LG Ms asked to be taken to your leader, the Greys brainwash your troops into killing each other.

The Greys are dicks.

[up][up]It was a miscall...I was thinking of the exact last frame, too specific.

She did rush her reformation because Jaspee was there...

Jasper's obsessions are

A: Prove Rose wrong in following this path of weakness.

and

B: Fusion is strength.

A + B = ?

Note that if she kills Rose she doesn't gain her victory. She has to prove the wrongness to Rose.

A possible explanation for why Jasper seems to be enjoying herself more now, compared to her first appearance.

Not sure if I fully agree with it, but I do think it's got the basic idea right. She definitely seems to be cutting loose and having fun now.

I love how far Steven has come. It's such a change from the beginning of the series when people were complaining about him always getting in the way.

It's better than Cap's shield since it functions like a boomerang, Stephen doesn't even need foresight.

Guys, does Jasper know that the Cluster's been terminated? Or, for all she knows, is she on a planet about to blow up? According to Peridot, the Cluster should have gone off "shortly", which isn't an exact time frame. How does Jasper know she's not about to die?
