I misread it as Yellow Diamond being the only one not entertained, and then assumed that was what they meant to write.

I wonder if the title of the special implies that Steven will escape. I mean, something's gotta happen until the Gems, Greg, and Connie can show up for the finale.

The promo clearly show they start escaping, question is how far it goes—before they get caught or the block ends.

Maybe they don't ever escape...

I could see Yellow Diamond killing Lars with Force Lightning or something.

You know, even if Lars makes it back completely safe in a short period of time, it would be kind of absurd if the people in Beach City just act like nothing happened.

Although, realistically they'll have to get back in a day or two, otherwise they'd die of hunger/thirst. Unless there's some point where they're brought to the Zoo (the promos suggest otherwise) or they find a cache of food/water meant for humans in transit.

A day or two...?

5 days at most, come on and that's only if their day isn't non-stop.

Physically activity makes you lose water much faster. Going by the trailers, they'll have plenty to sweat about.

I wonder if this show will kill anyone off. If Regular Show could end with Pops sacrificing himself, I doubt a show like this would back down from doing that.

I'd think if they did, it would be a sort of self-sacrifice, "I'll fight them off", station they're on blows up after heroes escape sort of way.

As for who, I'd assume it would be Garnet if it was a Gem, and Greg if it was a human.

If this show ever killed someone off (and I highly HIGHLY doubt it would) I would expect it to be a supporting character like Lapis or even one of the little Rubies, not a main character who appears in all the merch and DEFINITELY not a human. That said I think it would go against the show's tone, but I wouldn't hugely object to it since its contemporaries have taken similar risks.

What if Blue Diamond turns out to be an Anti-Villain?

That depends on how the story handles it. There's no reason to think she will be.

Like I said, I want the crew to go full out with the Diamonds. I want them to find the idea of Rose wanting to make a deal both infuriating and hilarious. Steven surrendered himself in hopes that it would stop the Diamonds. But Garnet said he is wrong, and I want that to be true.

He may not change the Diamonds but I can see him still having an impact

In a lot of ways the last thing you want is for a charismatic rebel to have a chance to be heard

I doubt the Diamonds will give him a public hearing, especially because they think he's Rose, but word may conspire to get out anyway

Yeah a public trial for their hated enemy makes no sense,especially if she's supposed to be dead/horribly corrupted,the trial is going to be personal vengeance for the diamonds rather then any sort of justice for their empire

Pity, I was hoping for a big show trial with a screaming mob.

But that's probably not something you'd see on Homeworld, now that I think of it.

I actually thought it was going to be a big public show trial too,but that's what would have happened had they won.instead they lost the war badly and as a result there's a resource shortage because they couldn't reclaim the Earth and use it's resources.

Rose handing herself over is a consolation prize at this point,no real victory for them

Isn't 90% of everyone on the show gay?

The way some parts of the fandom talk you'd think so.

But as has been said, I very much doubt any human is going to die, and as far as gems that we know go, I wouldn't put any money on that either.

We don't even know if anybody is gonna die, why worry about it happening when there's nothing saying it's gonna happen?

I mean, Stuffed in the Fridge and Bury Your Gays are tropes for a reason, but I wouldn't worry about them with a show like this.

Really, I think a lot of people just equate a woman or LGBT character dying or otherwise having something bad like that happen to them with those tropes, which I disagree with, but understand why people are defensive about it.
