♫ Hey, mister postman, bring me a post Bring me the post that I love the most. ♫ Huh?

My song came true! Do you have a package for me today?

Hold on.

Let me see what I've got here.

Did you order a loaf of bread with a stamp on it?

No.

Did you order a jury summons for R.J. Finkle?

That's not me - I'm Steven.

Oh, right, right, right - Steven. Here it is - Steven Universe.

Ha! This thing is gonna help me save the world!

Really?

It says it's from Wacky Sacks supply company.

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl think I shouldn't go on magic adventures because I don't know how

to use my gem powers.

That seems reasonable.

But there are other ways I can help.

But there are other ways I can help.

With a wacky sack?

Exactly.

You know how you can save my world?

Sign here, please.

Ah!

Barb yells at me if I don't get signatures.

That's awful.

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl are back!

W-wait! Steven! What is a wacky sack?

Huh?

Hello, Steven.

Amethyst, we do not need that. It's not going to fit in the fridge.

What? I got this.

Look - it fits!

Oh, man, we could make a big omelet or a quiche or big sunny-side-ups!

We fought a giant bird.

We're only here for a second. We've got to go back out.

What? Why?

We have to place this Moon Goddess statue on the top of the lunar sea spire before midnight.

Without it, the whole place will fall apart!

Oh, Steven, you should have seen the spire in its heyday.

It was an oasis for Gems on Earth.

It's abandoned now, but we can still save it with this statue!

Wha... That's perfect!

a... at s pe ect!

What? Why?

Because I can help carry it for you... in this!

Whoooosh!

Pwing-pwing-pwing-pwing-pwing!

A... hamburger?

It's a novelty backpack shaped like a cheeseburger!

Aw, I blew it.

I was just gonna wear it one day, and you guys would be like

"Dang, Steven, that's so cool!"

But this is obviously important Gem business.

Yes, so you should let us take care of it.

What? I'm a Gem!

But you've still got a lot to learn.

So let him come.

It'll be educational.

Hmm. All right. You can carry it in your hamburger.

Check this out - everything's a pocket! Even the cheese is a pocket!

I can fit a lot more stuff in here.

Give me a minute. I'll pack extra supplies.

Kid, don't shake me.

Mister Queasy!

Ohh, I got a medical condition.

You're definitely gonna come in handy.

Steven, let's go!

Ste e , et s go!

Uh, coming!

Whoa, Steven, did you bring your whole room?

Back that thang up.

Let's warp.

Suck it in, Steven!

Do you remember how to do this?

Keep your head in. Come on.

Whoa!

The sea spire!

It wasn't like this a hundred years ago.

I'm sensing structural instability.

Oh, yeah, that's never good.

Gah! Steven!

What?

All right, hold on. We're taking Steven back!

Ugh! My achin' stomach!

Oh, mister Queasy!

Kid, you're k*lling me.

Steven! This place is your heritage!

I want you to stay and help, but you've really got to take this seriously.

Can you do that, Steven?

You got it, dude!

Yes.

Enough.

oug .

We have to move.

What's the holdup? We can clear this easily.

No.

The magic that sustains the whirlpool creates a vortex that will pull us below.

So we can't jump?

Oh, wait!

What are those for?

They were for keeping warm, but check it out.

Steven!

He's getting sucked down!

Steven!

Cheeesebur-r-r-r-r-ger!

Steven, way to go! Come on, guys!

Steven-style!

Don't ever do that again!

Sorry.

But... it was pretty great.

Oh, no, no, no. This is even worse than the outside.

Ugh, that's - oh.

Oh, this didn't used to be so... Oh, and the water damage...

This pillar...

Oh, and this had a head.

Oh, Steven, once the statue's in place, it will restore all of this to its former glory...

What was that goober?

at as t at goobe ?

Crystal shrimp.

You guys, we got a problem.

It's an infestation!

And we have to pass through there to get to the top.

Can't you just squish 'em?

Don't touch that! Their shards are deadly!

We need to clear a path.

Amethyst, if you go around to the side and disturb them with a spin attack...

And, Garnet, if you move to the ceiling and strike this exact spot...

Then I can advance with my - bagel sandwich!

Brilliant.

Oh, hey, what do you know?

How did you know that would work?

Well, if I were s shrimp, that's what I would do.

You are a shrimp.

I just want everyone to know - my plan would have also worked.

Watch out!

What are we gonna do?

What? Me?

What have you got?

Cheeseburger backpack! Cheeseburger backpack!

Pearl, come on!

Ohh, all right.

Cheeseburger backpack! Cheeseburger backpack!

C eesebu ge bac pac ! C eesebu ge bac pac !

Cheeseburger backpack!

A raft!

Steven, that's so sensible.

Good idea, anyway, Steven.

Yeah, they can't all be winners.

This is it - the Moon Goddess pedestal.

And the moon is almost overhead!

It's not too late to save this piece of history!

Steven, the statue.

What's the holdup?

I don't have it.

What!?

I must have left it on the bed!

There's... there's no time!

Wait! I have an idea!

Could that work?

Kid, don't shake me.

Everyone, keep steady!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

This is all my fault. I broke it.

No, Steven, the spire was falling apart when we got here.

You handled everything well under pressure. You did great!

Yeah, 2 out of 4 of your ideas worked - that's 50%.

Yeah, I guess you're right - they can't all be winners.

Cheeseburger backpack! Cheeseburger backpack!

Cheeseburger backpack!

It's a three-hour paddle home.

Anyone want a wet bagel?
