More of Ruby's and Sapphire's overlap each other, as they both fuse back into Garnet, taking the form when she first appeared.

Garnet: ... Huh.

Garnet examines her new body, and everyone gasps in surprise.

-Spinel: Ooohhh...

-Taaf: Eeeeeuuughh...

Steven: Garnet, Garnet! You're back!

Steven runs forth to give Garnet a hug, who quickly backs away in awkwardness, and he falls face-first onto the ground.

Steven: Oof..

Steven gets up.

Steven: Thank goodness it's you!

-Garnet: W-W-What's going on!?

Steven: Everyone's memories are wiped, and my powers are all messed up. We need your help! What should we do, Garnet?

Steven steps forth towards -Garnet as he explains the situation, as she continues to back away in fear.

-Garnet: I'm sorry but... do you know me?

-Spinel pops into the camera.

-Spinel: Good question!

Steven, disappointed:  Her memories aren't back. I guess fusion was only the first piece..

Just then, a car horn is heard. Everyone turns to see Greg's van driving in, while Lion lies on top of it as -Pearl gets out from the driver's seat, holding a small red carpet and step-stool. She sets them down at the back door of the van, summons a small trumpet and plays a small fanfare.

-Pearl: Attention everyone!

-Taaf: Who're you? Do I know you?

-Pearl: No. "Um Greg Universe" has arrived.

-Taaf: Fucking.. who cares.

-Pearl bows as Greg rushes out of the car.

Greg: Steven! Have you seen Amethyst? 

Steven: What!? I told you to watch her!

Greg: She must've run off when I was wrestling my clothes out of -Pearl's hands!

Greg and Steven hear squeaking, and turn to see -Pearl wiping the van's hubcaps.

Greg: Pearl, you don't have to do that, I own a car wash!

Greg runs off.

-Taaf: Y'know, this should be easy to piece together if you get it right. 

Steven: Wait, really?

-Taaf: Hah... no.

Steven slouches a bit.

Steven: Isn't there any other emotion you can feel other than confused and angry?

-Taaf: If you ever catch me in a good mood, kill me.

-Taaf then walks off. With no -Ruby to throw, he's just leaving. To god knows where. 

Steven sighs as he turns to Bismuth.

Steven: I need to go find -Amethyst, can you watch -Garnet?

Bismuth: Yeah sure, but it seems like she's doing a good job watching herself.

-Garnet is seen looking around at the environment and at herself in confusion.

Steven: Thanks!

Steven runs off, but at the last second, -Spinel grabs his hand.

-Spinel: Don't forget about us!
