Oh my god. Honestly, a half hour special of Steven Universe. What could honestly be revealed? A WHOLE HECK OF A TON IS RIGHT! I saw the whole episode and I HAD to post this!

Okay, the episode starts with Steven simply talking to Connie over the phone. Connie explains to Steven that she could not come over because it was the last day of school. Fascinated by this, he tries to set up his own. When Pearl learns or this, she was easily honored to teach Steven. She shows him this magical mirror that can show them anything just by speaking of it. However, it did not work. Proclaiming it was broken, Steven simply takes it out and has some fun with it. Along the trip, he learns that the mirror can copy things that it sees and plays it back (There is a funny scene which honestly is the best timed yet). It ends up being able to talk to Steven. When the gems find out about this, they want to take the mirror back. Steven swats Garnet's hand away and even knocks her glasses off (I know, scary). Scared, he runs to protect the mirror. Steven hides and asks the mirror what can he do to help. The mirror tells him that to help, he needs to remove the gem in the back of the mirror. He does so, the mirror breaks, and then we are introduced to a new crystal gem; Lapis. She is confused that Steven was a Gem and she was freed. Before anything else could happen, the other Gems show up, and Lapis shows her power over water to take them out. She disappears into the ocean, telling Steven not to trust them. The episode ends with Garnet telling Steven that he's grounded.

The next episode begins with the Gems telling Steven his punishment for disobeying an order. Before things could transpire, Greg comes in a rush. He says that they should see this. The entire town is out at the beach, but its no longer a beach. Every drop of water is gone, the entire ocean was gone. The mayor and the people are all in panic, saying no one would ever come to Desert City for Summer Vacation. While the Gems were thinking things over back in their home, Steven grabs his backpack and starts to leave. He says that the ocean disappearing was his fault, and he would do anything to fix it. Greg offers to join him, as did Connie and Lion(cutest moment ever). The Gems join and say that he's ungrounded.

As they leave, Steven asked about Lapis. He asked that if there were more Gems. Before Pearl could explain, Amethyst blurts out that everything they have ever fought were Gems. Pearl explains that the "monsters" they fought were gems that were broken and corrupted. They say that they fight them so that they could one day help them.

And THAT is the part where I nearly lost it. THAT explains everything! In the episode Monster Buddies Pearl explains that Rose Quartz tried to turn them good, but she could never heal them. THAT is what she meant by heal! Rose tried to turn the monsters back into their normal Crystal Gem selves! THIS IS FREAKING HUGE! I mean, think about it! The Red Eye, Centipedle Queen, the Blowfish, the Glow Worm; every one of those was once a Crystal Gem! Pardon me while my mind is being blown.

Such an awesome episode. It got really deep and emotional and had some cool call backs to previous episodes.
