With Christmas shopping done, the Pearls get a lesson in wrapping presents and placing them under the tree. "Now it's important to make sure that the bows and ribbons compliment the wrapping paper." Pearl explains to Yellow, Blue and Pink.
"Like the blue bow goes with the sliver paper with glitter?" Blue Pearl asked. "That is a good example of complimentary gift wrapping."
Yellow Pearl was at "war" with the two-sided tape when it came to wrapping the presents. "Hold on there, Yellow, let me help you there." The authoritarian pearl stares at him as she was explained on how the two-sided tape works with gift wrapping.
"Um..." Pink Pearl finds herself in a tangled situation with the red silk ribbon and Christmas bow on her cracked eye.
"Don't worry Steven, I'll help her while you tend to helping Yellow."
"It's okay, we all make mistakes like this have been there done that." Said Pearl. "You have?" The pink Princess Leia haired gem asked. This made Pearl blush a little. "Believe it or not yes, when Steven was a small child. Amethyst kept going on about it for almost a week." She says untying her while telling the story.
"Thank goodness she forgot all about it and it was years ago." She carefully removes the bow from her cracked eye to not cause any pain to her physical form. "There now, all better."
Garnet walks in seeing all 4 Pearls and Steven gift wrapping together. "Steven, I made you cookies." She said setting down the plate of decorated sugar cookies. "Thanks Garnet." He said taking one shaped like a snowflake.
"That's just about all the gifts." Said Pearl taking some to put under the Christmas tree. "Do you think we can do it again?" Pink said delightfully. "We might soon."
