Jasper quotes from Steven Universe

Jasper

[holds Lapis' hand and falls to her knees; begging] Let's be Malachite again.

Jasper

Pipe down! You take orders from me now! You used to be a Quartz too, didn't you? What happened to you? Disgraceful. I can't believe I've resorted to recruiting you freaks! You're almost as bad as that Crystal runt! Just look at you. This planet ruins everything! Well, [chuckles] except for me.

Jasper

Every Gem is made for a purpose—to serve the order of the Diamonds. Those who cannot fit inside this order must be purged! To come out misshapen, to reshape yourself outside your purpose, and to defend this worthless, ruined planet is a disgrace!

Jasper

This is their base?

Lapis

Yes.

Garnet

You need to leave immediately!

Amethyst

Yeah, step off!

Pearl

This is not a Gem controlled planet!

Jasper

Neither of you saw Rose Quartz? Oh, what a shame. I'd hoped to meet her. I was looking forward to beating her into the ground!

Garnet

Steven, get out of here!

Steven

No!

Garnet

I won't let you risk your life!

Steven

[tearing up] But this is my home, and you're all my family! [his gem glows]

Peridot

Firing.

Steven

I'm… I'm a Crystal Gem TOO! [jumps in front of the firing beam from the ship and summons out Rose's shield, protecting the Gems and himself]

Jasper

[turns around in shock] That shield! That symbol! [Steven collapses to the ground after his shield dispels] You! You have the power of Rose Quartz!

Peridot

Now do you believe I needed an escort?

Jasper

Fire a barrage, widespread! [to Steven after the ship fires a cut line across the beach] Rose, why do you look like that? Why are you so weak?

Lapis

Don't hurt him!

Jasper

You knew about this!

Lapis

It wasn't relevant to the mission!

Jasper

Forget about the mission!

Peridot

What?!

Jasper

Yellow Diamond needs to see this... thing.

Jasper

[confronting Amethyst] I came here to fight Rose, not some runt!

Amethyst

You think you can just keep showing up and picking fights with us? Hah! Why don't you get a life?!

Jasper

Fighting is my life! It's what I was made for! [points at her] It's what you were made for too, runt!

Amethyst

So? I've got other stuff goin' on. I can fight JUST FINE!! [lashes her whip at Jasper, who catches it easily]

Jasper

Well, then... let's see it!

Jasper

You're not even trying. Is it because you know you're already a failure? [Amethyst looks up at her] You're a quartz soldier, just like me. But you're not like me, are you?

Jasper

You're small! [begins rapidly punching Amethyst, slamming her down; Steven sees them]

Steven

Amethyst?! [the monster lunges its hand near them]

Jasper

Are you that desperate for troops, Rose, that you keep a defect like this?! [Amethyst slowly stands up]

Amethyst

Rose said... I'm perfect... the way I am!

Jasper

Then she had low standards. [an enraged Amethyst charges at Jasper with her spin-dash] You... could've been me! [kicks Amethyst into the air, falls down as she watches Jasper face to face] And what are you instead? [Amethyst slams into the ground]

Amethyst! [a badly bruised Amethyst looks back at Jasper]

Jasper

Just a joke.

Jasper

[shocked to see Steven and Connie fused into Stevonnie] You fused?!

Stevonnie

[catches Amethyst's gem] Whoa! I did!

Jasper

You Crystal Gems would even fuse with a human?!

Stevonnie

[facing Jasper] I don't wanna hear anything you say. [holds up Amethyst's gem] Unless it's "sorry."

Jasper

[enraged after being beaten by Stevonnie] Fusion! Fusion! It's always fusion!

Stevonnie

Are you ready to apologize?

Jasper

This was just a warmup. Get ready for next time, Rose! Jaspers don't give up. Jaspers keep going, until we get what we want. [retreats into the ocean]

Stevonnie

Huh. I guess she lives in the ocean now.

Amethyst

Steven... I-I can't win. No matter what I do, no matter how hard I work, she came out right, and I came out... wrong.

Steven

That's just what Jasper thinks! She's the only one who thinks you should be like her!

Amethyst

But…

Steven

Stop trying to be like Jasper. You're nothing like Jasper! You're like me! Because we're both not like anybody! And yeah, it sucks! [Jasper lifts up the Injector and throws it aside] But at least I've got you. And you've got me! [tearing up] So stop leaving me out of this!

Amethyst

Us worse Gems stick together... [sniffles] right? [Steven holds out his hand]

Steven

That's why we're the best.

Smoky

What a BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Jasper

Huh?! Who are you supposed to be?!

Smoky

Oh, yeah. Who am I? I feel like Amethyst knows this.

Peridot

Forget your name, you've got a fight to win!

Smoky

I think, a Rose Quartz and an Amethyst, make a… [jumps into the air and combines Steven's shield and Amethyst's whip to make a yo-yo, lands safely back on the ground] Smoky Quartz!

Jasper

Is fusion the only trick you Crystal Gems know?!

Smoky

I've got plenty of tricks. Ever say, "Sink the sink?"

Jasper

I will not be beaten by another fusion! [fuses with the corrupted ocean Gem to form Zebra Jasper]

Smoky

What the…?! [Zebra Jasper begins to attack her, but dodges] Hold on, I've got a move that will really blow you away. [twirls her yo-yo around like a fan, pushing Zebra Jasper back, but it is not strong enough as Zebra Jasper regains her footing and approaches her again] It's cool if you don't like it, I've already got three huge fans! [summons two more yo-yos, creating a tornado, engulfing and lifting Zebra Jasper off the ground]

Jasper

We could beat them… if we stay together!

Peridot

Eww, that's disgusting!

Smoky

It's... corruption. [defuses back into Steven and Amethyst]

Amethyst

Steven, be careful.

Steven

But this just happened - maybe I can do something! Jasper, it's okay. I'm here. [starts approaching her]

Jasper

[snarling] Rose...

Steven

I'm not Rose, I'm Steven. I just wanna try and heal you. [licks his palm and reaches for her but she slashes at him, tearing his shirt]

Amethyst

Steven!!

Steven

[as Amethyst tries to charge at Jasper] Stop!

Jasper

[chuckles] I see how you do it now, Rose. You want Gems after they're worthless. You wait until after they've lost. Because when you're at the bottom, you'll follow anyone that makes you feel like less of a failure. [as Peridot rushes over] Huh... Just look at this one! You've stripped her of everything! Her limb enhancers, her status, her dignity...

Peridot

I still have one of those things.

Jasper

How can you side with Rose Quartz?! Why? Why protect this useless shell of a planet?!

Peridot

It's not a shell. There's so much life, living here. [smiling] That's what I'm doing! I'm living here! I've been learning new things about myself all the time! Like how I can make metal do my bidding! [tries to show this off, but the rod just falls behind her] The point being: Earth can set you free. [Steven smiles]

Jasper

[angrily, as the corruption spreads rapidly in her body] Earth... is a prison! I got out because I'm better than this place!

Steven

It's getting worse.

Jasper

I only came back to finish you off.

Steven

Try not to move!

Jasper

You can't manipulate me, Rose Quartz!

Steven

I-I'm not manipulating! I'm trying to help!

Jasper

Help? HELP?! I've been fighting from the second I broke free of the Earth's crust! Because of what YOU did to my colony! Because of what YOU did to my planet! Because of what YOU did to my Diamond!

Steven

[confused] I... Yellow Diamond?

Jasper

Wha...?! MY DIAMOND! YOUR DIAMOND! PINK DIAMOND!!! [becomes fully corrupted, barely recognizable, and looks ready to attack; Peridot finally gets the metal rod to move, plunging it into Jasper and making her poof]

Peridot

[after a brief silence] You're... welcome.

Amethyst

[smiles, then walks over to Jasper's gem and sighs] Come here, sis. [bubbles her gem and sends it off to the temple]

These the ones?

Amethyst

Steven! Greg! They found me out!

Steven

Ameythst!

Amethyst

You won't believe what I've been through! These Amethysts, they're really, really... great!

Steven

What?! [all of the Quartz soldiers laugh]

[laughing] Your faces!

[laughing] You were right. That was priceless!

Amethyst

[hugs Steven] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I had to! What are you wearing? Greg, this is a good look for you.

Steven

What is going on?

Amethyst

These Amethysts, they're all from Earth! They're from the Prime Kindergarten! Wait. Hey, 8XL!

Yeah?

Amethyst

You guys, I'm an 8! Tell them, tell them!

The Amethyst under me never popped out. We were all waiting and, nothing.

Amethyst

I'm 8XM! Facet 5, Cut 8XM! That's me! This is 8XG, this is 8XH…

I'm J.

Amethyst

Oh, geez! Sorry, I'm worse than Holly Blue!

Aren't we all?

Prime, Prime, Prime. You Amethysts are so cliquey.

Amethyst

Skinny's a Jasper! There are gems here from the Beta Kindergarten, too. Hey, where's Carnelian?

Celebrating.

[carries Amethyst] I'm not the shortest anymore!

Greg

This is unreal.

Steven

Hey! Please, if you don't mind me asking, we really need your help. We came in with Sapphire, Ruby, and Pearl. We've gotta find them and get them out of-

I'll only be a moment. [enters the room as Steven and Greg quickly hide behind an Amethyst Guard] What are you all doing in here?! Get to your stations! Even you hideous off-color Betas! Get out of your cubbies and into your places! It's the least you can do for the Diamond that kept you worthless sorry Gems in service! That's right. Blue is back already! Now go pretend your filthy vein of Quartz is capable of gratitude! Go, go, go!
