GC13 and Sophia discuss an old favorite: Monster Buddies. Centipuppy forever! (Eventually…)
As the first episode of the (unofficial) Saliva Saga, this is the first inkling we get of Steven as a healer (though it won’t be until next week that we discuss the episode that really delves into it).
It’s also a touching story of Steven making a new best friend, though unfortunately that best friend has been sitting in a bubble unmentioned for more than a season now. When could we be getting a centipeetle arc? Sure, we already have a green Crystal Gem now, but we can make this work!

Oh Ronaldo, you amaze us: who could have expected that he would not only be right about Gemkind being led by Diamonds, but that the Diamonds were called the Great Diamond Authority? During #StevenBomb4 we learned about them (from a non-prophetic source) for the first time, so there’s plenty to wonder about.
There is a lot that we still don’t know about Gems, even after #StevenBomb4. At the front of the mind (ours at least) might very well be the question of where Gemkind came from? We learned a bit more about them though: a bit of confirmation about how same-gem fusions work, and Gemkind’s mission to conquer the universe.

Sophia, GC13, and Ken discuss the episode currently holding the show record for most characters killed off on-screen: Steven and the Stevens.
Ken may not be able to get past (an alternate version of) Steven killing off so many alternate versions of himself, but if Steven and the Pompadours wasn’t going to happen, then there probably wasn’t much use in keeping the Time Thingie around anyway.
With the rules for time travel presented in the first half of season one though, we have to wonder… What does the homeworld do with the other time travel artifacts that they are certain to have?

We’ve finally got an answer to one question: yes, Steven can shapeshift to modify his form. While we’ve learned about shapeshifting’s energy drain though, it leaves us wondering about the mechanics of this seemingly universal feature of gemkind.
We learned a few interesting things about the Gem homeworld in these past few episodes. One thing, the extremely rigid hierarchy, is something we already guessed at, but we learned some new interesting factoids about them as well!

GC13, Sophia, and Hunter discuss that wacky episode: Joking Victim. It has fire breathing and a giant bowl of ice cream (but somewhere in Delmarva there’s a bigger bowl), so you know it’s going to be good.
After the obligatory beating up on Lars comes a discussion of Steven Universe’s hottest tune: Do or Donut! Mr. Smiley needs to put out his next album soon, because as far as we’re concerned he’s pure gold. (If you haven’t seen the old Wendy’s training video, Hot Drinks, make sure to check it out.)
Of course no one is perfect in Steven Universe (even Mayor Dewey has his flaws, however slight). Maybe Greg could help Mr. Smiley promote his hypothetical album by being his band leader…
