I love that the show invests so heavily in its characters that as a result we can get amazing payoff episodes like this one.

I certainly hope that just like we got a series of episodes over the course of a season or two dealing with what made Pearl who she is, we get equal time of her figuring out where she's going from here.

Regardless, that was 11 minutes of pure end-to-end awesome that I am about to watch for a third time.

Something I just realized: Pearl is so freaked out by the thought of eating that it was one of the contributing factors to Alexandrite breaking apart in Fusion Cuisine. But she was willing to drink apple juice to get Steven and Amethyst to think she's cool.

Also the fact that it's just a liquid and will be easier to, uh, get rid of probably helped.

I hope this relationship goes well for Pearl. I mean, there's no way this ends as badly as it did with Rose at least. Unless S. also gives up her psychical form in order to create a magical baby for some dude, but what are the odds of that happening twice?

Muta's Mating Dance Rates a 5 on the Muta Scale

GATOS Y VATOS posted:

Im curious if they might give her Susan Egan's voice, and/or name her Susan/Susie in reference to Rose's voice.

Also, if they decide to keep her around, I'm curious if they will use it as a way to visit the idea of "Parent has been single for a long time after other parent died, so its time to start dating! How will the kid react?" Knowing how much Rose and Pearl meant to each other, there might be some complicated feelings about her moving on to another girl who is similar. Or they could subvert it and have Steven be totally supportive, considering he hates seeing birdmom so sad

Is there any good way for me to be able to legally purchase all episodes of this show in the UK? UK Amazon video has only half of season 1 up there, and the US one doesn't take UK cards. The best I can find is an Australian bluray of season 1. This is one of my favourite shows and I'd like to be able to actually support it.

Also we can't buy merch from the Cartoon Network store because they just plain will not ship outside of the US. It's frustrating.

has the moon ever been anything but half on the show? the stars are obviously an animation error but I can't recall ever seeing a full or crescent moon like ever.

also that episode has reminded me to online date again since it's super fun getting people's phone numbers.

Like, the 4th episode or whatever with the cheese burger back pack has the moon being full.

This episode was so good :allears:

We got to see Bad Pearl, and we got to see Bad Pearl have an awkward crush on a human lady. This was a really good Pearl episode, and it's pretty entertaining to see what happens when she exits her comfort zone and tries to adopt her "terrifying renegade Pearl" persona.

I think my favorite bit was, "I've already been a criminal for 6,000 years. :smaug:"

I was also pretty amused when she decided to try drinking her juice, and couldn't figure out how cans work.

I mean it's not that much of a stretch in as much as apparently this ep made some "Bad Pearl" meme canon. (Didn't know about it before yesterday.)

It's going to get super weird when she gives her Rose's dress and sword and tries to teach her how to command others in battle.

"That's it, S! Tell me how to defeat the corrupted gem!"
"I...don't know? I'm a loan officer!"
"No, you taught me we could be whatever we choose to be!"
