01x20 - Coach Steven

[bunniefuu]

Whoa! What magical place of mysteries is this?

Well ... Oh, I'm so glad you asked.

This was once a communication hub for gem kind.

But lately, it's begun transmitting bursts of electromagnetic interference. What's that mean?

It's hurting television. No!

I'll save you, television!

Sorry, but we need a Steven at least this strong for this job.

It's all the me I could be!

Amethyst, we could be here all day taking out each of these pillars individually.

Ugh, I hate it when you're right.

You get this look on your face.

Yeah, that's the one. What we need is a well-thought-out plan. No. What we need is Sugilite.

Amethyst, fuse with me. What?!

Yeah! Let's mash it up!

Bigger! Badder! Better! Hold your horses!

Are you guys going to become a gem fusion?

Wait! Garnet, think about this.

You and Amethyst can be a little unstable when your personalities combine. We need to be

careful. Fuse with me instead.

careful. Fuse with me instead.

We don't need to be careful. We just need to be huge.

Oh, yeah! Let's wreck this joint! Synchronize.

What ... what ... Pearl, come on. I want to see.

I forgot how great it feels to be me.

That's Sugilite? You got it, baby.

Hey, Steven, want to see something cool? Yeah!

You like that, little man? Are you gonna smash stuff with your wrecking-ball thingy? That's the

plan.

Where should I start? Do that one!

Steven, I think we should go. No way! This is awesome!

Watch it!

Steven! You're just too much!

Maybe you're just too little!

Steven, we're going. What?! I'm fine! What about Sugilite?

She can find her own way home. Aw.

'Sup? Whoa, Steven!

What happened to you? Oh, just a little battle damage from our last mission. Really?

Like what? I got hit by a rock!

It must not have been a very big rock.

Well, there's... internal bleeding.

My hurt is on the inside!

Oh, okay. Toughen up, Steven.

You're right. I'm soft. If I weren't so modest, I'd whip out my sweet six-pack and show you what

... a real man looks like.

Yeah, I'm not gonna say thanks.

That's it! We all need a workout. Let's do it.

Let's work out together. You could beat up Lars, and you don't have to starve to death if Sadie

divorces you.

We're not married. And I know just the guy to help us out.

Wow, this looks great.

Wha... what? Hey, dad.

Hey, Steven. You like it? It's the best I could do on such short notice.

No kidding. Well, I might join you kids, show you how it's done. I've been slacking on my

workout routine for a few weeks ... months ... years.

Decades. Sure.

The more the meatier! Oh! We'll need sweatbands.

Hey, Pearl. Come to check out some buff studs?

No.

Steven, what on Earth are you up to? We're starting a gym.

I'ma get supa-strong! Like Sugilite!

You know, maybe this isn't a good idea. What? I want to be strong so I can be useful to the

team. There are different ways of being strong. But I want to be strong in the real way.

Come on, Pearl. Let's get beefy! I'd rather not.

Steven.

Hey, Steven, maybe, um, you could work out a bit, too. Huh? I've been.

We've been working out. You've just been singing some dumb song.

But you're doing a great job pumping us up. Thanks, but I need to get strong, too. I'm switching

to four-wheel drive.

Steven, come on! We're ready to get started.

We can't work out without your mad coaching skills!

Be there in a sec!

So sore from getting ripped.

I don't understand. Amethyst and Garnet still aren't back yet. I tried to warp back to check on

them, but the warp pad is down.

What's that o t in the ater? Are o seeing this too?

- What's that out in the water? Are you seeing this, too?

Wha... Wha...

What the hey is that?

I'm bored! It's Sugilite!

Y-You're back! You left me behind.

We just thought you didn't need any help.

Now, why don't you separate, and we can all sit down and relax? No!

Pearl! Listen to me.

You've been fused for too long. You're losing yourselves.

I am myself, and I'm sick of being split up!

So you better get used to me, baby, and get this junk off my beach! Why is she wrecking dad's

gym?

Why is she attacking you? Steven, get out of here.

I can't move.

What? You want to fight? You'll thank me later!

Come on, kid! Dad, no! Pearl!

You think you're something?

You... ain't... nothing!

My muscles.

Steven! I'm sorry, Steven...

Garnet, Amethyst.

I wasn't strong enough to protect you.

I'm not strong enough to do anything. Come on, Pearl! Don't give up!

I know you can take her down! I can't.

Yes, you can! Come on. You always know what to do!

You've got to show her what you showed me ... that you're strong, Pearl ... strong in the real way!

What?! You want some more?! Anytime!

You're no match for me! Not even close!

Go! Get back here!

Nice try.

Is that all you got? You think that's enough to beat ... ugh!

Amethyst! Garnet! Are you okay? Yeah.

Sugilite just overworked our bodies.

It's a little painful.

And I've got a monster headache.

Oh. Whoops. Pearl, you did it!

Thanks. You make a good coach.

Pearl ... we should have listened. You were right.

Yeah. I was right. Go, Pearl!

Come on! I feel great! Who's up for a mission?

How long is she going to keep this up?

We deserve it. Take it like a gem.

Uh, what the heck just happened? Drop and give me 20!
