[Trans. Int. Diamond Throne Room]

(As the song ends, a gilded purple book is shown on a silver stand, titled "Steven Universe". The book opens up, as White Diamond begins narrating the story.)

White Diamond: Once upon a time, the Gem Homeworld was ruled by Diamonds: White, Yellow, Blue, and the littlest Diamond, Pink. While the other Diamonds conquered many worlds across the galaxy, Pink had only one - the planet Earth. One day, Pink fled the comforts of Homeworld. On Earth, she made a new home, new friends, and finally, new life; giving up her form to bequeath her gem to her half-human son. Without Pink, Gemkind entered an era of despair. But, when Steven Universe learned of his heritage, he reunited with his fellow Diamonds and championed a new era of peace and freedom across the furthest reaches of space. *shuts the book* And now, dear Gems everywhere, I'm pleased to announce that Steven is finally ready to take his rightful place on Pink Diamond's throne!

(A light fanfare is heard as Steven, now a fully-grown teenager is shown standing in front of White. He faces us.)

Steven: *turns around* How's it going, everybody?

Steven: I know you all might be thinking of me as the new Pink Diamond, but you don't have to put me on a throne

Steven: I know you all might be thinking of me as the new Pink Diamond, but you don't have to put me on a throne. I already have a rightful place, and it's on Earth.

(The Diamonds all lean forward in their thrones in surprise.)

Blue Diamond: Huh?

White Diamond: What?

(Yellow Pearl is seen adjusting the settings on a diamond-shaped projection screen, broadcasting Steven's message along across the universe.)

Steven: It's a beach house, where I live with my friends, Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl. As much as I've loved dismantling the empire and saving all your planets, I can't wait to get home and spend some quality time with my friends.

(As Steven finishes his message, White Diamond's eyes widen. She scowls at the Pearls)

White Diamond: Cut the feed.

Yellow Pearl: Your time is up anyway.

(Blue Pearl snickers and runs off to pull away the camera, as Yellow Pearl shuts down the broadcast.)

Steven: *turns to the Diamonds* I think that went well.

White Diamond: Steven, please.

Yellow Diamond: You can't go.

Blue Diamond: You must stay.

White Diamond: You're all we have left of Pink. *kneels down* Steven, you belong here, with us.

Steven: Uh... Thanks. But... no thanks.

(Steven slowly backs away as the Diamonds begin to sing "Let Us Adore You".)
