The strangest thing is, Amethyst... you think you have to listen to them! [laughs] You are the one they should put you in charge!
Ha! That's your best joke yet.
No, really. Pearl is a Pearl. Garnet is a fusion. I don't even know what he's supposed to be.
Hey!
You're the only Crystal Gem that's actually a Gem!
Uh... [laughs nervously] What?
You outrank everyone on your team. They should be listening to you. You're a strong, singular, fully-functional soldier, despite the fact that you're defective.
..Defective?
Well, sure. You're small.
So?
Well, you're not supposed to be! Hold on, wait, wait. Let me guess. [points to Amethyst's hole] This— [runs to hole] This is the hole you came out of. Too small, too low, the exit marks look about 500 years newer than every other hole. Hmm... this place must have been empty when you came out. No wonder you have no idea what you're supposed to look like!
Peridot... [Amethyst holds Steven on the shoulder]
What was I supposed to look like?
Well, you're a quartz. They're huge, loyal soldiers. You should be twice your size. Broad shouldered, intimidating, but you simply stayed in the ground too long.
Are you saying I'm wrong?!
[laughing] Gemetically speaking, yes. When you think about it it's also... [snickers] funny! [Amethyst feels more enraged]
Amethyst?
Hey, soldier. Maybe you can help me get this hunk of drill off.
[Amethyst violently slashes the drill head off of an Injector with her whip]
See? Look at that! You can do everything a normal quartz can do. Let's head back and shove this thing in Pearl's face!
Amethyst? Are you okay?
Don't worry about it.
