Steven saves the world with compassion and empathy and I love it.

This episode manages to move the plot forward with surprisingly sparse dialogue and it is a wonderful thing.
We end the season with an episode about Peridot bonding with Garnet, rounding out her development.
Between Peridot’s offensive remarks last episode and her general sneakiness, Steven’s finally losing patience with her.

Life and death and love and birth and
Peace and war on the planet Earth.
Is there anything that’s worth more
Than peace and love on the planet Earth?

Steven confronts the reality of his weird hybrid body and how it might affect his relationship with Connie.

Where did we go? What did we do?
I think we made something entirely new
And it wasn’t quite me, and it wasn’t quite you
I think it was someone entirely new

Now that Peridot’s managed to establish a working relationship with Pearl, it’s time for her to awkwardly connect with Amethyst (only slightly less offensively).
Now that Peridot’s finally resigned herself to working with the Crystal Gems, she just needs to learn how to treat them with respect and dignity.
