Yeah in that episode it did feel like an attempt to stop sidelining them. It still didn't feel like enough to satisfy me personally but they seem to be trying at least. My opinion might change whenever the episodes after are aired.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

"Your Mother and Mine" was nice. I really like the flashback style and hope they use it again. I love Padparadscha's Past Vision being like a hindsight thing. The beginning dragged a small bit, and the episode ended too soon. And I guess Rose really was made on Earth? Of all things, why has "is Rose from Earth or not" beginning to become a running question?

I liked "The Big Show". Great songs ("G-G-G-Ghost" especially) and some good development for Sadie. Sunshine Justice had a nice design, though I'm kinda sad she wasn't Mystery Girl. At least she got a cameo.

"Pool Hopping" is interesting. I went into the episode thinking Garnet and Steven were gonna use her powers to view unlikely futures, not create them by being bombastic and spontaneous. I liked it, though, especially Garnet and Steven's majestic poses. Also, Garnet mentioned an alternate timeline where Onion was the one that got taken into space instead of Lars. I wanna know more about that. The scene with the cats had me going "adopt them, adopt them, adopt them," and "oh no Garnet!" when she started breaking down. I just wanted to mention it. Oh, and Cat Steven. I wholeheartedly welcome her into the Crystal Gems. May she have a wonderful time.

"Letters to Lars" was a comedy goldmine, from Pearl being excited about her "cellular phone" to Jamie and company's attempt at improv. I wonder if Pearl has been calling S off screen? Dewey found his purpose, Ronaldo is attempting to find his, and I am slightly worried about Greg's spending, though he probably has like seven million dollars left at the least. And they brought him and Garnet playing tennis into the show, which is neat.

Overall, I liked this batch of episodes. And I'm kinda thinking (I'm not sure if this should be spoiled; if it should, tell me) that we're gonna get a Steven/Garnet Fusion soon. "Your Mother and Mine" and "Pool Hopping" definitely seem like they're setting the foundations for it.

Great bunch of episodes

Also

With Lapis being on the Moon I wonder if Peridot will go to her,or something brings her back to Earth

While the episodes weren't very story based I really liked them with Your Mom And Mine being my favorite and Pool Hopping coming in second.

[up] Just some ancient human

You know, seeing Peeidot in the improv group made me realize that she's actually better at socializing with humans than Pearl is. And now I wonder how Jamie got her into the group or why she chose to join?

Steven probably had to explain what an improv group was to her and had to convince her join,I don't see her joining of her own accord,anything to get her out the bathroom really

Being better at socializing than Pearl is classic Damning With Faint Praise. Like, even I socialize better than Pearl does, and I actively avoid it in many cases.

Also, it makes sense. Peridot very quickly became Intrigued by Humanity (and Earth in general)... she might not be particularly competent at interpersonal interactions, but she's also easy to tempt into them.

[up][up] Amethyst is also part of the group, so I think she joined, then told Peridot about it, and then she wanted to join.

No-one is talking about the fact that we saw White Diamond

...'s silhouette, but it's better than nothing! Also, is Pearl confirmed not to have belonged to any of the Diamonds now?

The evacuation plan may come up again, but I'd be fine if it was just be a device that got the gems and human socializing together.

[Peridot's] actually better at socializing with humans than Pearl is.
Better in what sense? She seems more outgoing than Pearl, but also more confrontational.

With Lapis being on the Moon I wonder if Peridot will go to her,or something brings her back to Earth
As I said, there's a commercial that includes scenes for a later episode (seemingly the same episode the clip with the telescope came from). Piecing it together, I would guess the first act goes: Ronaldo's messing the with the telescope finds the barn, Steven and Lion teleport to the moonbase, then Steven rolls his bubble out solo to get to the barn.

No-one is talking about the fact that we saw White Diamond
Because we already saw as much from the trailer that came out last week. (Although the episode itself did include the detail that only Blue and Yellow's forces came to Earth.)

is Pearl confirmed not to have belonged to any of the Diamonds now?
This doesn't change anything; Garnet said she "belong to noone" to say she freed herself. Pearl was still made for someone, whether or not they're anyone of plot relevance.

> is Pearl confirmed not to have belonged to any of the Diamonds now?

Kinda.

The vibe I got is that being on Earth she was property of Pink Diamond before joining Rose.

Also,we getting closer to actually seeing White Diamond,we might actually see her in the next few episodes

There's a sliding scale of getting to "see" a character. At this point, she's still only been shown in the background, not mentioned in dialogue.

I'd guess an in-person view is still a while off, but we'll get a direction mention or indirect portrayal of White Diamond with the next reveal about the Pink Diamond plotline (whether White is relevant or incidental to the events in question).

Interesting how the show seems to be setting up the 'Pink isn't shattered' theory.

Steven didn't understand how his empathy powers basically allowed him to relive the memory of Pink and Yellow at that location,the memory is basically an echo that only Stevonnie could hear

Garnet probably had some understanding but there is probably more to it then being the echo of long ago event,

What I find interesting is the implication that Rose Quartzes didn't seem to be intentionally super, just another type of Quartz

Also what we learned about how the rebellion was covered up
