The Crystal Gems are gathered around the drill they recently completed, while Peridot and Y/n are nowhere to be found
Amethyst: How much longer till we can use the drill?
Pearl: Well, with the new coordinates we got from the , it should be ready to go. But we really should perform a few tests first.
Steven watches as he sees Peridot sneaking into the barn and follows her. Peridot fumbles with the prism she retrieved from the Moon Base in "It Could've Been Great". She quickly hides it behind her back when she sees Steven
Peridot: oh! steven
steven: peridot I need to talk to you
Peridot: uhhhh, yeah! sure!
Steven and Peridot enter the truck that is parked inside the barn
Peridot: why are we in this broken down vehicle
Steven continues to observe the prism Peridot is hiding
Steven: I wanted to ask you...about the Diamonds?
Peridot: Oh! I don't know what the others have told you, but there's a reason they're in charge.
steven: why's that
Peridot: They're objectively better than us. Every Gem has their strengths and weaknesses, but not them. They're absolutely totally completely flawless beings! Especially my diamond, Yellow Diamond, the most perfect, the most reasonable, rational, efficient decider ever to exist in the universe!
Steven: you're really loyal to her aren't you?
Peridot: How could I not be? We might have our little truce, but I'll never forsake the Gem I was made for!
Steven: that's good, because... she's right behind you!
Peridot: WHAT?!
Peridot turns around and Steven snatches the prism from her. He then exits the truck and locks Peridot inside
Peridot screams
Peridot: Ahh, no! Ahh!
Steven: Save your strength! You're up against one of the earth's greatest trapping technologies: the child safety lock!
peridot gasps and cowers
Peridot: Oh, no! How could you do this to me, the great and lovable Peridot?! I thought we were finally friends like you wanted...
steven: I saw you sneak this off the moon base while nobody else was looking! *holding up the prism* What is it? Tell me!
Peridot: It's nothing special. And definitely not important at all.
(bluds not fooling anyone)
steven: Hmm!
steven picks up a hammer lying on the floor
Steven: Then why don't I just smash it!
Peridot: Nonononono, wait! All right, look. I have a plan. Allow me to explain... It's... a communicator. Meant for the express purpose of contacting the Diamonds back on Home world.
Steven: You're still trying to contact Home world?
Peridot: Yes, of course! I figured it out. You simple clods keep trying to protect the earth, but you can't do anything right! I let myself get carried away, too... laughing, singing, building our little machine... but don't you see? None of that matters! All that matters is that I'm of use to Yellow Diamond! This planet can be of use to Yellow Diamond! I must contact her, to reveal what I've discovered!
