It has been over 2 weeks since the start of the drill had began, Pearl and Peridot was the one who mostly was working on the drill as Lars still had a job and still attended to it as normal, working from 6am to 4pm daily with Sadie who had question Lars about his absence from his home during the weekends.
Lars: You went over my place?
Sadie realizing the way she spoke had made it seem that she had often visited his residence to notice he has been gone quite a lot as she blushed and wave her hand, raising her voice.
Sadie: I-I just noticed you've been gone a lot lately!
She shut her mouth and decided to quickly walk away in the back and head into the backroom of the kitchen as Lars would silently observe before he shook his head, walking back to the counter as the bell jingled, signaling a customer's arrival. A small crowd of beachgoers entered, their chatter filling the shop. Lars instinctively put on his customer service smile.
As he prepared their orders, his mind wandered. The weekends had been grueling... splitting his time between assisting with the drill and his day job at the Big Donut was draining, even for him.
His interactions with Peridot and Pearl had proven challenging, especially when Peridot's stubbornness clashed with Pearl's perfectionism. Still, Lars found himself the unofficial mediator between the two.
Back in the shop, Sadie peeked out from the kitchen, her face still slightly red. She watched Lars work, noting his serious yet calm demeanor, a far cry from the moody teen she once knew.
Sadie: He's so calm now... Not like the old Lars. I wonder what changed... He never gives me a straight answer...
Lars finished with the last customer and leaned against the counter, glancing toward the backroom door. He muttered under his breath.
Lars: Guess she really has caught on with 'Lars' change as I expected but it would be good just go on as normal.
But for now, there were donuts to sell and a drill to construct.

????: What do you know about the Earth?!
Peridot: APPARENTLY MORE THAN YOU, YOU... CLOD!!!!!!!
Peridot: Uhh! Peridot, out!
[Later On]
Peridot would wonder back in the barn and went to the corner behind the junk in the barn and huddle up to her knee, mumbling 'Rebel, Defect, Useless' to herself as the moon light began to shine down towards the barn.
