Rebecca Rose was the name of my middle school social studies teacher. What a kawinky dink!

Chandler Keown

Also - not wholly "new" ; since he's shown sleep related stuff in 2 different episodes. Dream-> possession in one (albeit a creation of his, a watermelon steven)

Jasmine

41:39 right? And not a single person registrred or acknowledged what STEVEN said. The one they like and trust told everyone what went on and they were still more preoccupied with UGH - and it's not even in a semi-logical way ; I'd feel better if they even rejected it or told Steven that didnt make sense. or... it's that same "every person is acting WEIRD while Steven looks on in distress: Monster Buddies, another I can't think of rn, then this episode 🤦🏾‍♀️

Jasmine

It's so nice to see someone who feels exactly the way I do about Peridot.

Cloudcraft

A

Skillz

fun fact: PERIDOT5XG is an actual canon Twitter account on Twitter with all the stuff that Peridot posts in the show and more (I advise not looking just yet just incase of spoilers but I don't quite remember if there actually is spoilers or not). it's so funny to look at

Peridot

It truly is just banger after banger from that point forward. Edit: love your account theme Perry is the best

Marcy Wu

well after that I'm pretty sure there's no more "filler" episodes so HOORAY

Peridot

I was watching Rebecca Rose when Elijah was recommended, which lead to Morgan reacts, which lead to Mosco.

Brett

Oh interesting. Probably that. I was more thinking of Ruby Rose, the actress. She was kind of popular with the women years ago haha

Justine Herc Uy

I was thinking the same thing with Elijah reacting to R.W.B.Y lately.

Marcy Wu

You guys the next episode is Beach City Drift. And then we have both Monster Reunion and Kiki's Pizza Delivery Service on Saturday. And I guess Restaurant Wars also this week but I'm far less excited about that one.

Marcy Wu

I love how the show builds on gag episodes to make tools for the writers to use later, with only a couple exceptions which are just Comedies to break the tension between important episodes

Film Vagabond

Mosco says it's a new power when steven essentially did the same thing with the watermelon stevens

Justice

Peridot might have been talking about being an Era 2 gem? Low resources possibly means less peridots? And it’s implied that Era 1 Peridots were taller, otherwise the restrictive gem empire probably wouldn’t bother making them taller with the limb enhancers if it weren’t to better fit the new peridots into the existing status quo. So we can guess that Era 2 peridots are a little more precious because they run the kindergartens that make gems and they are in low supply

Jachariah

Short gems are not more or less important. Remember Ruby would only be higher ranked than Pearl in the gem hierarchy, then it would be Lapises Peridots and Quartzes (like Jasper and Amethyst) above that (not sure which is above which for those four tbh) then Sapphire at the tippy top at least compared to the other crystal gems. And of course the Diamonds which are huge from what we’ve seen so far are the most important

Jachariah

how could I forget

OllieSollie

2:17 Wrong : Lapis, Amethyst, Rubis and Saphire actually made another fusion (L.A.R.S).^^

POMMERA Pierre-Emmanuel

It's technically not a new power, it's the same thing he did when he woke up as the watermelon Steven, this time he was just thinking about Lars

Incredible Hamburgr

IMO it's only three "filler" episodes from now till the end of the season, but then there's... Season 4..☹️

Josh

Oh, I get such second hand embarrassment from Steven going to Sadie's house. I honestly forget about it until I watch it again

Hulk Lover

I love that Amethyst knew Peridot was bluffing with the "insult to your intended form line" and asked what's really wrong. She knew she had grown past that kind of thinking and that something else was going on.

Hulk Lover

Steven is the world's strongest Larsadie shipper... and you can see how disastrous that turned out. Anyway yeah I can really relate to poor Lars. As a neurodivergent, but un-diagnosed high schooler I totally feel what he was going through. The poor grades, his parents getting the grade reports in the mail, the way he's desperate for social validation with The Cool Kids, the way he's so shy and withdrawn with everyone and feels like he has to put on an act to be accepted by others... except for Sadie. Scared of his true self. I get it, man. What Steven did was suuuuuuuper fucked up. The worst part is at the end when everyone in his life, his parents and his friends, said they LIKED him that way. Not the way he actually is. Not the TRUE Lars. They only cared when he acted like someone else.

Alp

Yeah but its kind of a significant gap at this age in life. A 14yo and 17-20yo are in vastly different stages of life

peachy af

Steven is 14 though so isnt that only a couple of years age difference with Lars and the rest of the teens??

LobotomizedBarbie

"Too Short to Ride" has always been one of my favorites! I of course love them just hanging out, and Peri's excitement over the alien (and the iconic "I also do not steal Steven's clothes when he's not looking!"), but it's the lore and reveal for me. Peridot focuses so much on her intelligence and being a Kindergartener and technician because in her eyes and Homeworld's eyes, that's all she can do, especially without her limb enhancers...and she was made that way, so there's nothing she can do about it. Her height doesn't match an Era 1 peridot, hence the limb enhancers to make her taller (and why it's indicative of her rarity and importance, even in a resource crisis she was still made anyway). Told she was powerless her entire existence, she learns when in personal crisis mode that she in fact does have a special power: ferrokinesis! It is in fact metal manipulation, not just generel telekinesis. And it makes me wonder: did Homeworld lie, or did they not know Era 2 peridots have this latent power, or is she the only one? Is she special after all? She is to me, and to her new friends, and that's what matters more!

Courtney Boike

Why 'ship when you can FLEET? Lapidothyst for LYFE!

Craig Rangoon

yeah but i mean that its not random

deny

amedot is far more based than lapidot dont even worry about it mosco

peachy af

Rebecca Rose was also the name of a reactor who watched The Owl House then ended up working as an animator on the show

Alyssa Hernandez

Peridot's comment about her size being "indicative of her rarity and importance" She's referring to her being a Peridot. Since most gems of the same cut look almost identical to eachother, or at least like siblings. So she's saying her size is indicative of her being a Peridot. This also implies that Peridot's are more rare and important than some basic gems, but still lower in the hierarchy than Quartz gems like Amethyst and Jasper.

Lei feetenby

"Lars is gonna be psyched!" "Buck is pleased! I love Buck.

Justine Herc Uy

Rebecca Rose? Maybe Ruby Rose? Then add Rebecca Sugar + Rose Quartz in the mix.

Justine Herc Uy

Lmao the rebecca rose segment got me dying

emerald

As a Filipino, I was thrilled to find out Lars is half Filipino. I believe his dad is the Filipino one due to his name being Dante Barriga. In addition, Pearl, Peridot, and Lapis are voiced by Filipino voice actresses. In fact, majority of the gems are voiced by women of color which is quite fitting, don't you think?

Justine Herc Uy

My headcanon for Steven's random powers are due to him being a hybrid of human and gem. His usual gem powers are now blending in with the human anatomy and thus doing things no other gems can, like for example fusing with a human.

Justine Herc Uy

The coaster sticking at 7:25 made me feel less bad about my cheap light coasters that always stick to my glasses and mugs.

Justine Herc Uy

Totally could have fused to enjoy the rides...

Porpoise Power

doing it to people is new

Tyrant-Den

There's a harem anime with a Koala character and that is her whole thing: she wants to eat poop. she gets along great with the rabbit girls, as rabbits also eat poop.

Tyrant-Den

Peridot's little dance when she sees the alien plushie!

Chet Bliese

I don’t know if sloths eat poop, but koalas definitely do when they’re young because they haven’t fully developed the plumbing necessary to digest eucalyptus leaves, which are the only thing it eats. So the young ones eat their mother’s fecal pap, which is a special semi-digested form of poop that sustains the young koala between the time they stop nursing and the time they can eat leaves.

Matthew Abbott

I like how both Steven-Lars and Mosco didn't understand the report card, because they've not seen the American report card lol

Stellar Kruize

Yes! I got rid of Muskolini's X app as well and am also on Bluesky! <3

Stellar Kruize

Finally watched it in full. 1. Peridot and Amethyst shipping would be cute but yeah....I would wait to ship anyone yet. 2. Lars was just possessed and how people reacted to him having a normal reaction to that did trigger me a bit. His body you know. 3. Sadie and Lars have a weird relationship but it is VERY much like a teenage one. I thought they were like 20 or something and Lars was in college, but I can't remember. (not a spoiler I just thought they were older)

Spadez

Not to mention Lars, the guy who desperately tries to get people to like him, prefer the Steven Lars over the real Lars. That's harsh. Really harsh

supersoaker

The New Lars is a super weird episode but boy did it make me empathize with him more. Also... there's gonna be a few weeks of filler going forward D:

Alp

I wonder if Rebecca Rose and Rebecca Sugar will watch this. 🤣 Hey it’s understandable Mosco. The show’s creator is called Rebecca and Rose is a character that appears and the name Rebecca Rose is easier to remember for anyone’s brain.

Liam Gradwell

Rebecca Rose was a reactor to the Owl House who used to do breakdowns of it, and was eventually hired by the show itself to work on it! She'd be there on panels! Fun fact: when she stopped doing the breakdowns to be part of the Owl House staff, I looked for a new reactor to watch, and that wound up being Elijah!

Pedro D. Nunez

shes the leader after all

deny

ITS NOT A NEW POWER, HE DID IT TO THE WATERMELON STEVENSS

deny

Yea it's really frustrating that people are so quick to get mad at Lars for something he has every right to be upset about

Cortez Kennedy

I remember that account. It went defunct after not too long after Lauren Zuke got into some hot water over shipping drama iirc.

A Dead Diehard

when i heard rebecca rose i giggled but then the REALISATION LMAO

deny

Two things about this on first Stevens possession power: he didn't seem to really try to leave the body. It was an accident yes but this is the second time lars has been effectively held hostage by someone. The first time by saidie on that island episode and this time. He is a jerk yes but after both of these incidents I would never speak to Steven ir saidie ever again. Second: homeworld is running out of resources so if they don't expand then no more gems. If those injectors are the only way gems can reproduce then the rebellion may well actually have contributed to a gem extinction.

A C PARNELL

Steven's astral possession isn't a new power, it's the same thing he was doing in Super Watermelon Island. This is just the first time he's done it to a person who could speak.

Ferret

You are getting closer and closer to my favorite episode!

Spadez

I agree. That was a non consensual body possession and people were like "it wasn't that bad"

Spadez

SHORTY SQUAD!!!

John Bossert

I honestly really dislike how everyone reacted towards lars when he found out what steven did. Steven took control over his body and they all just expected him to be cool. It was like none of them actually listened to what steven did. It was a weird writing decision imo.

Kyle Murrell

Hey, Mosco :D Even if you are no longer active there, you may want to check out Peridot's twitter: https://x.com/PERIDOT5XG

Arianod

I love seeing some of amethyst’s emotional intelligence :3 and peri is the cutiest patootiest

Annieme

That coaster had perfect comedic timing 🤣

Juan Aguilera

Lars has a pretty significant character arc but it takes a WHILE to get really interesting.

A Magic Duck

Peridots first of many W’s to come. This is why she’s the (self proclaimed) leader of the Crystal Gems.

Alex

Peridot is one of my favorite of the Crystal Gems
