The Crystal Gems are exploring an ancient Sea Shrine and looking around a series of hourglasses.

Steven:Hey! How about this one here?

Pearl: *walks over to steven* Which one?

Steven: This little one... *looks at the smallest hourglass with starry eyes* It's adorable.

Nora: I think it wouldn't be that small, Steven.

Pearl: Nora's right steven. The legendary glass of time won't be nearly so small and insignificant. It'll be beautiful and grand. *looks at an big hourglass with an elegant design in excitement* Like this one!

Nora: Maybe this one? *Looks at a medium size hourglass with a simple design*

Pearl: It could be that.

Garnet: I think it's this one.

The gems looked at a gigantic hourglass.

Steven:*looks up* whoa.

Nora: That's a big hourglass.

Pearl:You mean, the biggest one?

Garnet, Steven, Nora and Pearl look up at the giant hourglass.

Pearl: How are we even supposed to get that back to the Warp Pad?

Garnet: I can carry it. *cracks her knuckles*

Pearl: Wait! We need to be careful which one we touch. You remember what happened last time we were here?

Steven: What happened?

Nora: *looks at steven* Probably something bad.

Amethyst:Hey, guys- I'm making the call. *picks up an oddly-shaped hourglass* And it's this janky one here!

Pearl: Amethyst!!

Nora: Oh no.

The Sea Shrine begins to rumble.

Amethyst:Ugggh... nope, it wasn't.

Nora: Ya think?

The ceiling of the shrine disappears and water begins to rush in, flooding the place.

Garnet: Look out! *grabs Steven and dodges the water alongside with Pearl* We don't have much time.

Nora:*points at the warp pad* to the warp pad!!

Pearl: Amethyst, come on!

Steven runs away from Garnet and Pearl, back towards the hourglasses.

Garnet: Steven?

Nora: Where are you going?!

Steven: Amethyst gets to keep hers.

Amethyst: *walks past, carrying her chosen hourglass* Darn tootin'!

Steven: I'm gonna get the one I picked out.

Nora: Steven we don't have time for this!!!

Steven:*picks up the tiny hourglass* My name's Steven. You're gonna live with me! *puts it in his pocket*

Nora: Hurry up!!

Steven:*runs towards the Warp Pad* Imma comin'! Imma comin'!

More water gushes into the shrine, forming a huge wave behind Steven. Pearl starts to panic as Garnet quickly stretches her arm forward.

Garnet: Hang on! *grabs Steven and pulls him in*

Amethyst: Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!
