Steven arrived in the living room with the whole Williams family together. He noticed Craig and Bryson sitting together, while the stump kid tried to participate in the reunion, but he wasn't helping himself.

"Okay so how about we go outside and check out my garden from the backyard?" Earl offered.

"Earl, we did that in our last reunion, where we watered them." Duane replied.

"You know they need water to live."

"About that, I've actually taken care of the gardening this morning." Jojo chimed in. "I knew he wanted to do it again, so I've made the changes."

"We always celebrate here, what's the difference?"

"Switching jobs?" Darnell said.

This caused Steven to take action. "Have you all ever thought of the idea of doing something new every once in a while?"

"Technically, we do." Kimberly walked up to Steven. "We did The Jessica And Small Uncle Show when we learned she acted it out in front of her brother for the first time."

Everyone turned their attention to Craig and so did Steven. "You watch your sister's show?"

"Yes but, let's just say I'm not a fan of it." Craig spoked quietly.

Steven then thought of an idea to do something similar to Jessica's idea for an activity. "My parents always did that type of activity with me when I was the same height as Craig's."

"You mean age, not height?" Nicole asked.

"Yes, every time at home, I always go on adventures with my parents to fight off creatures from distant places."

The Williams family became confused at first. "What show did you watch exactly?" Bernard wondered.

"It wasn't a show, it was all imagination. Really, they're so many imaginative landscapes and people of two species. Humans...and Gems."

"You make friends out of jewelry?" Darnell asked.

"Seems like a glorified world in your childhood." Jasmine added.

Craig took notice of Steven's handling of this. He knew Steven's personal life more when the truth came out about his three mothers and the gems who are his friends. If only he wished it would've turned out better yesterday, there would've been something to make up for his deeds.

"If you don't believe me, here's what my parents made for me." Steven heads out the door and heads straight to his van. He opened the door from the other side but he uses his powers to activate his shield. He shuts the door as he heads back to the house, entering the front door, taking everyone by surprise again.

"Is that a shield?" Jessica walked up to Steven. "It's beautiful!"

"Yeah, that's a really great looking shield." Nicole commented.

"Looks like time really revolutionized shields." Earl added.

The family walked up to Steven, amazed at the design of his shield. However the only ones who stayed in place are Craig and Bryson, who's in complete shock.

"Is this what you're talking about?" Bryson leaned in to his cousin.

"Yes, but the less said about that, the better." Craig whispered back.

"I have to admit Steven, your parents must've paid a fortune to make this." Jasmine felt his shield. "Most shields don't have these accessories."

"You'll be surprised, these would be difficult to make with my parents." Steven smiled. He then took full advantage of his plan as he took everyone out in the backyard to showcase his shield. Craig and Bryson sat together, sitting behind the back door like last time.
