R"Eyeball" Ruby
When I heard rumors there might still be Crystal Gems on Earth, I couldn't believe it. A thousand years of fighting were all for nothing! And Rose Quartz might still be alive? [scoffs, rolls on her side] She must be. Why else would someone as important as Jasper be back on Earth? For closure, that's why. I wanted it, too. I wanted to see Rose Quartz with my own eye. At the very least, I thought Jasper might have some answers, but... it wasn't even her. Just another trick.
GRGarnet/Ruby
So this is what Homeworld thinks of fusion.
GSGarnet/Sapphire
We couldn't have known they would do this.
GRGarnet/Ruby
This is where they've been…all the ones we couldn't find… they've been here the whole time!
GSGarnet/Sapphire
Rose couldn't have known.
GRGarnet/Ruby
This is punishment for the rebellion!
GSGarnet/Sapphire
[breaking down] It's not our fault!
[sliding down with Pearl] Yo! We're back.
Garnet, we lost Peridot. Her fingers were too fast for us. [two fused hands climb up on Amethyst and grabs them] Um… what are these things?
Wha...? [throws the hands away]
We need to poof and bubble all of them. We can't let any escape. [She poofs the hands as the screen turns black]
[agitated, panting] Calm down... I don't feel like forgiving Pearl!... You don't understand, you must... If you're not going to listen, then you can just GO! [splits into Ruby and Sapphire]
[calmly] We must move past this, Ruby.
RRuby
[furiously] She lied to us so we'd form Sardonyx! She tricked us! Don't you feel used?!
[surprised] Ruby! Sapphire! I…
You're choosing to take it personally.
RRuby
IT'S FUSION, SAPPHIRE! WHAT'S MORE PERSONAL TO US THAN FUSION?!
I know you're still upset...
RRuby
Oh, so it's just me?!
Of course not. Can't you see I'm completely engulfed with rage?
RRuby
Well, it doesn't feel like it!
The sooner we forgive Pearl, the better it will be for us all.
RRuby
YOU'RE NOT AS ABOVE THIS AS YOU THINK YOU ARE!
[about Ruby, while she shakes the table] This will pass. She'll eventually just burn herself out.
RRuby
[angrily] THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK! I AM AN ETERNAL FLAME, BABY! [flips the table]
[while Greg talks to Steven, arguing with each other simultaneously]
How could I possibly not know you? We always fuse! We always fuse, what are you even going on about fusion?
RRuby
Look at you! [laughing] You don't even know yourself! Ha!
So don't act so ridiculous.
RSRuby & Sapphire
Steven!
[enraged] I was so happy when Garnet said she wanted to go on this trip with me and Dad! Home's been awful! Here's been awful! I thought you wanted to have a fun time, but everyone's been acting awful too! It... it just came with us! I don't understand! Is it... is it me?
RRuby
...No! Steven, it's all us!
But we made him feel like it was his fault... I keep looking into the future, when all of this has already been solved, as if it doesn't matter how you feel in the present! [starting to cry] No wonder you think I don't care...!
RRuby
Sapphire... No, nonononono! This is all my fault, I... I didn't want to look for a solution, I... I just wanted to be mad! You're right! You're always right! I was being stupid!
I don't think you're stupid!
RRuby
I'm... sorry. [gently brushes Sapphire's hair aside, revealing her sad eye]
You honestly think I'm not upset about what happened? I was just... trying to do the right thing.
RRuby
I know... [starts smiling] You know what's nice about being split up?
RRuby
I get to look at you...
[pushes her off, laughing] Be serious!
RRuby
[hugs Sapphire] There's my Laughy Sapphy!
Shh! You're embarrassing me in front of Steven! [cut to Steven, feeling awkward at the scene]
Thank you, Ruby. You did your best.
[narrating] Ruby suddenly realized what Sapphire meant. She'd known that Ruby would fail. Sapphire had accepted it. But Ruby… Ruby could not.
RRuby
NO!! [charges at Sapphire, pushing her out of the way of Pearl's attack, causing them to spin into the air and accidentally fuse into Garnet for the first time]
[narrating] The furious crowd closed in around Ruby and Sapphire. They'd never seen fusion of two different types of gems.
VGVarious Gems (Garnet)
Unbelievable! Disgusting! This is unheard of!
[narrating] Blue Diamond's voice cut through the crowd.
BDBlue Diamond (Garnet)
The rebels have fled. Sapphire, this is not the scenario you described.
This is… not what I saw! I don't know what happened, I…
BDBlue Diamond (Garnet)
Clearly.
[narrating] Said Blue Diamond.
BDBlue Diamond (Garnet)
How dare you fuse with a member of my court?
BDBlue Diamond (Garnet)
You will be broken for this!
[After a baseball bat is accidentally destroyed, Steven goes to get a replacement from the barn]
[hiding in the barn] Hey, how's it going? Are we winning?
[nervously] Ummm, heh-heh...
RRuby
[standing behind Sapphire, guiding her with a bat] Now, what you wanna do is lean with your hips. [Sapphire swings the bat] Yeah, that's pretty good. Let me show you again.
["Eyeball" Ruby watches them, then glares at Steven]
[sweating] Well, heh... We're doing just fine. [heading back to the field] Everything's going to be A-okay...
[After Ruby and Sapphire accidentally refuse into Garnet after the baseball game]
[laughs joyously for a moment] ... Whoops.
R"Doc" Ruby
[angrily] THEY'RE GEMS!
R"Army" Ruby
[also angrily] WE'VE BEEN TRICKED!
R"Navy" Ruby
[in quiet awe] What a turn of events...
R"Leggy" Ruby
[confused] Huh? W-what?
[to the other Crystal Gems] Sorry, guys. The game is over.
R"Doc" Ruby
That's it! Rubies... COMBINE!
[The five Rubies fuse into a giant Ruby and roar]
WAAAAAAIIIIIIIT!! WAIT! STOP! DON'T HURT THEM! [rushes out of the barn, trips twice, and runs the rest of the way on all fours, panting] Wait, oh please, please! It's me you're after, right? I'm not gonna stand by and let my friends fight my battles!
GRGiant Ruby
[squats down] Are you the Peridot assigned to the failed Earth mission?
[nervously] Not sure if "failed" would be the right word to--
GRGiant Ruby
Where is Jasper?
You're looking for... Jasper?
Wait - but I'm the one who betrayed the mission! Who called Yellow Diamond a clod! The new leader of the Crystal Gems?!
GRGiant Ruby
Tell us where Jasper, NOW!
Jasper... umm... we know where Jasper is! [Pearl nervously shakes her head]
[pointing to the sky] Neptune! She's on the planet Neptune!
GRGiant Ruby
[stares at them suspiciously for a moment, then smiles and shrugs] Well, why didn't you say so?
[Steven sighs in relief, and the Rubies unfuse]
R"Doc" Ruby
We all here? One, two, three, four, aaaaand... HA! Five. [points to herself] To the planet Neptune!
R"Army" Ruby
Let's move out, soldiers!
R"Navy" Ruby
[dreamily] What a lovely sounding planet...
R"Leggy" Ruby
But we just... got here.
R"Doc" Ruby
[dragging "Leggy" along] Let's go, newbie!
R"Eyeball" Ruby
[glares at the Gems for a moment, then speaks in a strained voice] Thank you...
[The Rubies re-enter their space pod and zip into space at hyperspeed]
[Star iris closes in on Garnet's face as she smiles] Not all of them.
[the Rubies walk up the moon base stairway followed by Amethyst (disguised as Jasper), Pearl, Garnet and Steven]
R"Eyeball" Ruby
The Earth was Pink Diamond's colony. Everything was going smoothly at first. Kindergartens were incubating their first soldiers—big, warm pieces of quartz, like this mountain over here—were being created from its rich minerals with great success. Then, bam! One of Pink Diamond's very own quartz soldiers started a rebellion and took it too far. Where were you when that happened?
Oh, you know... around. ["Eyeball" turns to Amethyst]
R"Eyeball" Ruby
I was there. I saw it with my own eye. I watched the leader of the Crystal Gems, Rose Quartz... [projects her light on the mural] shatter Pink Diamond!
[Steven looks up in his horror; Garnet is frozen still for a beat, Pearl starts shivering in fear]
No... [beat] Rose Quartz w-would never do that! [tearing up] A-And, sure, she had to fight but... But she would never shatter someone!
[Steven (in his bubble) and "Eyeball" Ruby drift in space far away from the Earth]
R"Eyeball" Ruby
There goes my whole platoon! [growls at him] This is a mess! [walks around his bubble] What'll I say about my report?! How will I even make my report?! This is a nightmare! [looks down at him] And this is all your fault.
Whoa, hey, no it's not! You were trying to hurt my friends!
R"Eyeball" Ruby
But you opened the airlock in the moon base. You sent us flying into space with no hope of ever returning!
[long pause] Okay, so maybe that was my fault. I'm sorry. There! Are you happy?
R"Eyeball" Ruby
No! Lucky you're in that bubble, or I'd pop you right in the face.
Well, if you're going to be a grump about it, then we can just float in silence until we both die!
R"Eyeball" Ruby
Sounds great!
R"Eyeball" Ruby
I can't wait!!
The human zoo. I can't believe it still exists.
Dad's gotta be in there. We just have to find him and bust him out.
[The Roaming Eye enters the zoo hangar and they see two Amethyst guards in front of the entrance]
Amethyst guards. Right, like we could just waltz up as an ownerless Pearl, a fusion and- and you.
We just need disguises. I'll be Esteban Universedad!
Steven, it doesn't matter what your name is. We're all going to stand out!
[Garnet defuses, separating into Ruby and Sapphire]
We won't stand out if we play the roles we were made for.
RRuby
Okay, everybody. Hear her out.
Today, I'm a Sapphire traveling with my Ruby guard…
Esteban, I've brought you as an offering for the Zoo.
You're accompanying me as extra muscle.
[points to the Amethyst guards at the entrance] Muscle like them?
But I've never even seen another Amethyst before. What do I do? What if I say something wrong?
Just look the part. You're new and we're rusty, but we just have to sell this long enough to find Greg.
Is this really going to work?
No. [they all gasp] Just… stick together. Play it straight! Let's… change the future! [smiles crookedly]
