I would have loved it if Lars was hanging out with the Cool Kids when Steven possessed him. Just flopped over on his face, then woke up as Steven!Lars.

From a fellow spoiler dodger, I promise. It's in the episode description from when I set it to record.

He's one childhood trauma away from sending people to the cornfield.

If every porkchop were perfect…

Or his idea of a benefit is occasionally getting free donuts from Sadie.

He did wear glow-in-the-dark ear gauges in "Beach City Horror Club". Not sure about any other episode though.

The girl beat a Predator in season 1. Kicking in a screen door is a warmup.

I won't lie, it was awkward and cringey to watch throughout, but as soon as Sadie invited him in, my mind went to DEFCON 2.

He kind of reminds me of Belson from Clarence. Rude to everyone and purposefully aloof, but does derive genuine pleasure from something as simple as watching baby dolphins.

For as much as I love Steven and Sadie's dynamic together, this is the third episode featuring them that's resulted in strained relationships and violations of personal boundaries. Hopefully we'll break that streak next time.

I saw a "Last House on the Left" reference in there too. It was like looking at an alternate universe Cinema Snob's VHS collection.

When Steven first manifested his dreamwalker powers in "Chille Tid", I think Pearl or Amethyst mentioned they'd never heard of a power like that before. At the very least they never explicitly mentioned that Rose was capable of it. I think that, and by extension this, are the beginning of powers that Steven…

Sloths are also surprisingly adept at swimming in order to avoid drowning in rainy season floods.

I remember now. "To the nearest warp pad!" I must be very tired and/or stupid.

Is there a warp pad at or near the barn? I don't recall seeing one.

You've finally made a shitpost out of me!

I really like that Amethyst is helping Peridot to overcome the same issues with her identity that she's struggled with. I've long suspected that her mastery of shapeshifting is a response to her origin as a Kindergarten gem. Since her form and powers are a shameful reminder of origin, she's made greater use of an…

Backup dancers are meant to compliment the stars, not draw attention away from them. Also, this episode becomes a lot funnier if you imagine them as a bunch of singing, dancing Andrew Ryans.

Perhaps, but that shared line they had in that Steven Bomb ("Why won't you let me do this for you, Rose?" - "Just let me do this for you, Steven!") both spoke to an unhealthy devotion someone they care about, to their own detriment. Their personalities may differ, but their issues are remarkably similar: stranded on…

Now that Pearl's come so far, I want to see her start taking on the role of healer and dispenser of advice. Take some of the lessons she's learned from Steven and Garnet and teach them to someone else. Lapis is the obvious choice, given the number of parallels drawn between them way back in Steven Bomb 2.
