Well it’s a lot harder to make a prediction about the episode than normal, but not for any lack of information. Since Too Far was aired at New York Comic Con before a large crowd of people, anyone who can’t resist spoilers knows exactly what’s in the episode. If you’ve vigorously kept yourself away from spoilers so far we don’t want to be the ones to break your streak, so all we’ll say is, once again, that the schedule has been changed from previous weeks and Too Far will air at 7:30 PM EDT on Thursday. Be there!
Time slot change: Steven Universe now airs at 7:30 PM eastern time
If you haven’t checked the weekly schedule then definitely make sure you do: not only does Steven Universe have re-runs again (as we suspected), but it’s been moved to 7:30 PM. Make sure you don’t miss Too Far when it premiers on Thursday, and enjoy Steven Universe’s return to the schedule.

Sophia, Ken, GC13, and Hunter continue to conduct the Peridemption train and discuss Back to the Barn and the huge lore drop about Pearls (next stop, Pink Diamond Station!).
This was one of those big episodes. Of course everyone is excited about the confirmation of the Servant Pearl Theory, but we’re building robots now. Even if the episode was a bit predictable, Peridot learned an important lesson that is keeping her on track for joining the team full-time.
We can’t let all of the thrill of learning about homeworld distract from the fact that Steven Universe takes place in an alternate history: there are no holidays (that link to Mr. Burnett’s tweet is for when he un-protects his account), and the Americas were also probably settled much later.
The fourth-quarter break is almost upon us. Make sure not to miss Too Far on Thursday, because it will be the last episode for at least a little while.

Aivi and Surasshu post: Peridot in the Rain
A song from When it Rains has been posted by Aivi and Surasshu: Peridot in the Rain (2:00) is now up on Soundcloud for your enjoyment!

What could Back to the Barn mean?
Lore, speculation, the endless cycle. Back to the Barn was a big episode for telling us what homeworld society is like, but there are always unanswered questions. Let’s see what we can wonder about today.
Good signs on a return of re-runs
You know how we had such poor re-runs the past couple of weeks? Well it looks like it was a brief interlude, just like last time. Currently Cartoon Network is showing a schedule that has Steven Universe with half an hour on week nights at 7:30 PM EDT. It’s a recent change, so it hasn’t hit TV Guide or any of the other schedule sites yet, but cross your fingers and hope it sticks.
If the change goes through, we’ll be revisiting some plot-heavy Peridot episodes as well as the season one finale before we get to see Too Far to see us off into the year-end break.
What we learned from Back to the Barn
We didn’t get as much plot advancement as we expected from Back to the Barn (though we did get confirmation on one form the Cluster won’t take :-P), but in trade we got even more lore than we had hoped for. Rather than one brief remark, the episode was centered around the issue and its retort. That means more to talk about for us.
Aivi and Surasshu post: Pearlbot vs Peribot
Yeah, sorry, this one’s all spoiler all the time. Aivi and Surasshu have given us another great track though! If you haven’t seen Back to the Barn yet, listening to Pearlbot vs Peribot (1:15) should definitely amp you up to hear the song in context!
