[Open Ext. Beach City]

(Steven enters at Beach City, noticing flashing lights coming from inside his house.)

Steven: *gasps* All right! Now that I've saved the universe... I can finally party!

(Steven runs to his house and sees everyone... You, Rhodonite, Padparadscha, Rutile Twins, Fluorite, and Lars Barriga. Including Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Connie Maheswaran... even Onion. Steven is eager to join the party as he begins to open his door, but it disappears.)

Steven: Huh? *banging* Hey, guys! What's the deal?! Let me in!

Cookie Cat: *deep voice; echos* Steven. No one needs your help, so why are you still here?

Steven: What?? (Steven falls off of his house as he screams.)

[Trans. Int. Beach House]

Steven: *gasps; wakes up heavily* Why do I keep having these horrible dreams?

???: (from afar) STEVEN!

Steven: Peridot?

(Steven opens the door, letting You and Peridot in.)

Peridot: STEVEN, STEVEN, STEVEN, STEVEN, STEVEN!!!~ 

Y/N: Hey, Hey, Slow down

(You pick Peridot up and gently place her next to Steven)

Peridot: Today is the day! Did you tape it?

Steven: What are you talking about?

Peridot: You promised me!

Steven: Oh, are you talking about the reboot of the classic great northern teen drama Camp Pining Hearts that I recorded... on this tape?

Peridot: *gasps* AAAAAH!

Steven & Peridot: The return of Camp Pining Hearts!

Y/N: I'll go make Popcorn

[Trans. Int. Steven's Room]

Steven: You know, I'm so glad you're here. 

Y/N: Glad we could make it

Steven: Good, Because, I've been having some weird dreams lately.

Y/N: Hmm, What about?

Steven: Nothing specifically, But-

Peridot: *covers Steven's mouth* Shh! That's great, now press play you monster!

(Camp Pining Hearts song plays. "Starring, Olivia Bouchard, Jasmine", and "Starring, Victor Tourtiére, Rodrigo".)

Rodrigo: Oh, Jasmine, I wish you would fly into my arms, *voice fades* but every time...

(Later that day.)

Steven: Wha- *to Peridot* What-

Steven & Peridot: *shouting off screen* WHAT HAVE THEY DONE?!?!

(Steven and Peridot appear on screen.)

Peridot: What is with this Rodrigo guy!? He has no charisma!

Steven: And can we talk about this cinematography?

Peridot: GAHHHH! They've changed all the characters, and I don't care about any of them! *lifts up the television dramatically, slamming it on the ground* How could you do this to me?! *leaning over the TV, sobbing* Camp Pining Hearts helped me escape when everything around me was in chaos.

Steven: CPH brought us together.

Peridot: And now... LOOK AT THIS NIGHTMARE! (The television starts his dream.) Steven! You didn't tell me that they cast you!
