[up][up] Hey, everyone used to despise Lars, and then he became the single most awesome townie character. I think the crew could redeem Ronaldo if they actually put in the effort.

I do wonder what the end game for Ronaldo and Kevin is. These guys are just, not great people. I wonder if they'll become better? Or in Kevin's case Stevonie manage to actually cut him our of their lives.

The cool kids making amends for sabotaging Ronald's relationship would be welcome by me.

I also feel like there's more to be said about Barb and Sadie's relationship.

Also, we need an episode explaining what the point of Andy De Mayo is.

I wonder if we'll get a new opening or theme soon. The current opening is fine, but slightly dated (Amythest still has her previous look) and they need to include Peridot (and Bismuth if she sticks around).

[up][up] Ronaldo's trying, man.

It wasn't the Cool Kids sabotaging his relationship. Steven convinced him to pretend he was in love with Kiki to get their dads to stop the Restaurant War, and Jane came by at the worst time.

Andy is Steven's introduction to Greg's side of the family.

I think the point of Andy was to flesh out Greg, and provide a way to fly him to Korea so he can get abducted by a giant blue alien.

You know, I feel like we missed out on seeing his reaction there. How did Steven explain that?

I love words with multiple meanings. You get stuff like [up][up][up]. [lol]

And something else I just remembered: we don't even know Mr. Fryman's first name yet!

I feel like the point with Kevin (and Marty) at least, is that some people are just assholes who probably won't change, and you should accept that sometimes.

Being open to people who do want to change is loving and good, but you can't force it, or let people walk all over you just because you want it to happen. That last part more or less got directly said by Steven to Ronaldo.

Even if her voice actor's availability prevents Bismuth from becoming a regular character, or even Commuting on a Bus, I'm sure the crew would vastly prefer writing her out (even awkwardly) to having her die.

Bismuth's VA being credited as a guest star doesn't necessarily mean she won't be Commuting on a Bus given Fake Guest Star is a trope, which apparently is something that's prone to happening for legalese-ish reasons related to credits.

Actually, I think Aduba even being credited as such was just an assumption.

This show doesn't even have a "guest star" credit, just "Featured Voices" (which is always Callison, Estelle, Dietz, and Magno Hall, no matter which are actually in the episode) and "Additional Voices" (everyone else).

So I just remembered—it's been ten months since Rebecca Sugar performed "Escapism", and we know "Reunited" is going to have a song in it.

[up] I don't think it's "Escapism". These last four episodes have the exact same titles as the French ones, and the first (or last of you go chronologically) of that bunch was titled "Escapism".

[up]Would you consider those as leaks?

(In case the post above gets edited, the point is “We have a likely answer to this question, but only because of leaks.”)


The way Steven explained Ruby and Sapphire would fuse at the wedding’s end makes me think of the Unspoken Plan Guarantee.

Uhhh... *shrug emoji* I don't know.

I think "Dewey Wins" was talked about on here when the title popped up an Asian TV Guide before we got a clip for it, so maybe not?

The way the show works, Bismuth could live at the temple and only show up as often as Peridot does.

You know what I just realized? With the way her hair swoops, "Now We're Only Falling Apart" Rainbow Quartz actually looks a lot like Garnet's depiction of Pink Diamond in "Your Mother and Mine".

If Rose Quartz's DO exist and it wasnt just a name Rose made up for Pink, what do they look like? Like Rose Quartz?

Well, aside from the breasts, Rose just looks like any other Quartz. So like an Amethyst, or Jasper, or Holly Blue, but pink.

We know Rose Quartzes exist; Blue has dozens of them bubbled away at the zoo. If they weren't a real type of Gem, Pink probably would have been found out much sooner.

Oh, yeah, Bismuth is dead. Like, way dead. She's about to be the deadest dead that ever deaded.

It's too late in the show to be introducing new character dynamics, and with this episode Bismuth's entire arc seems pretty much done.

All is forgiven, welcome back to the team, we'll polish your grave stone every day.

I mean, there's still the very obvious elephant in the room about Bismuth most likely being the one who poofed Lapis way back when.

I suppose that could technically come up without Bismuth being around, but it makes much more sense for her to be, well, around for it.

And just more generally I don't see this show being that cheap.
