Amethyst.

Do you mind not bouncing so much? Ooh.

[Laughs]

Sorry.

I'm just super excited.

- Greg is taking me to a show! - A show? You mean like, at the thee-ay-terr? No.

Like at a rrrra-ha-hock show! Heh.

Like a band! At a house! With a whole bunch of people hanging out and doing stuff! Ooh! Man, that sounds cool.

We have an awesome night planned, too.

- We're doing a puzzle.

- Wow-wee.

I know it sounds tame, but it has 612 pieces.

And no corners! - I found a corner.

- Oh! Oh.

[Door opens]

Greg: Hey, y'all.

Greg, Greg, Greg, Greg! So, you ready to throw down in the pit? No pits for me tonight.

I'm sorry, Amethyst.

It totally slipped my mind that Barb invited me and - Vidalia over for cards.

- Cards? [Groans]

Who broke you guys out of the retirement home? Trust me, I'd love to go to the show! But Barb threatened to hold my mail if I didn't.

And she's not a woman of empty threats.

[creepy music]

[Groans]

Man, forget it.

I can't go "show-lo.

" That'll be boring.

You could hang out with us tonight.

And do a puzzle? Ha! Maybe we can fit in some knitting, too.

That's not what I meant.

We could go to the show with you.

- Really? - Whaaaa? You want to go to a show? With loud music, and people pushing each other?! I've done my fair share of pushing.

Ohh, I think it's broken.

You two just never saw me in action! Breaking every rule, taking on the authorities, so I could indulge in the joys of life on Earth! - Oh! A sky piece.

- Nice.

Well, if you'd like to go, you guys can take the Dondai.

Thank you, Greg.

Whoo-hoo-hoo! Rock show! Hold on, Pearl.

This is a human thing, not a Gem w*r.

Before you rock out, you're gonna want to blend in.

Now you're looking good.

Oh, yes.

But I can make it look even gooder.

It's cool, because the collar isn't supposed to go that way.

You're a natural.

We're almost set on snacks for the road.

We just need some beverages.

Strawberry sugar shock shut down or good old fashioned apple juice? Definitely sugar shock shut down.

It turns everything red.

[Crunch]

I'll have one too, Steven.

I think I'll try drinking tonight.

Wow, really? I didn't know you liked apple juice? There's a lot you don't know about me, Steven.

Whoa.

So, Amethyst, tell me more about this band we're seeing.

We're going to see Mike Krol.

He's got that real garage vibe.

Songs about being nostalgic for the suburbs.

Nostalgic for the suburbs? Pssh.

They've only existed for what? 70 years.

[Laughs]

Okay, so, when we get to the show, you got to walk in like you own the place.

[Store bell dings]

[Music]

Oh! Hey, right there.

Perfect example.

- Pearl, you okay? - Uh I just didn't realize Humans could come with pink hair.

Steven: [Laughs]

They don't.

You got to go to the store and get this goo.

It smells really bad, and it turns your hair whatever color you want.

Why would she do that? - Why don't you go and ask her.

- Hey, yeah! We're about to go hang out with a bunch of cool Humans.

Go do a practice round! Do it! Do it! Do it! [Whistling]

[Crash]

I uh [Store bell dings]

Wow-w-w-w-w! Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wow.

[Seat belt clicks]

Welp, you sure showed those cups who's boss.

Amethyst, seatbelt.

[Click]

Now let's go have the night of our lives.

I'll burn like for you [Rock music plays]

You can follow me home Okay, nobody's gonna say it? She kind of looked like mom.

You noticed.

I noticed.

We all noticed.

Oh.

Ohhh! That's why you were acting like such a goon! [Laughs]

No, no.

That's not it.

I'm done thinking about the past.

Tonight, I'm all about the future.

I'm going to a show.

I'm a new Gem who loves socializing with Humans.

That's what that was? Look, you weren't there by the cups.

I could've talked to her.

The timing was just wrong.

[Motorcycle engine roaring]

[Gulps]

It's the girl! She's driving right next to us! - No way! - You've got another chance! - Yeah! Do something! - Like what? Flash my lights? Honk at her? - Just sh**t her a look.

- Wait not yet.

Okay, okay.

You can look now! [Music continues]

With all my friends I'm going to good show Ooh, and there she goes.

Hey, maybe she's going to the same show as us.

I don't know, a girl that cool probably knows about a billion shows going on tonight.

[b*at thumping loudly]

[Gear shifts, tires squeal]

Pearl! Aaaah! [Laughing]

Yeah, P! What are you doing? The light was red! I know.

- There she is! - What's your plan? - New Pearl.

No plan.

- Ah, no kidding.

[Police siren wailing]

[Gasps]

Ooh.

- The police want us! - Oh, snap! [Gasps]

What do I do?! You have to pull over to the side and show them your license.

- I don't have a license.

- [Laughs]

Oh, right.

- But But, you're old! - What was I supposed to tell the DMV? That I'm from another planet? - I'm not exactly a citizen, Steven! - Then what do we do? Would you believe me [Engine revving]

[Both scream]

[Police siren wailing]

[Turns up volume]

Aaaah! Pearl, you can't just drive away! This is serious! Pearl, you're a total bad [Tires squealing]

This is why we buckle up.

Hold on! - Whoo-hoo! [Laughs]

- Oh, boy.

[Tired screech]

Shh.

[Police siren wailing]

- Are they gone? - I think so.

[All sigh]

[Engine sputtering]

- Guh! - What is it? - [Sighs]

We're out of gas.

- Aw, what? Wait! I'll find a gas station.

Looks like the closest one is 20 miles away.

[Groans]

[Crickets chirping]

- I can't believe this.

- Huh? I was so ready! I really wanted to see your Krol.

What are you talking about? I was going to drink a juice and wear these [grunting]

pants! Ugh! And [grunts]

hit people gently enough as to not actually hurt them, and you'd say, "Wow! Pearl is really cool!" But no, instead, we drove to loud music, chased a mysterious woman into the night, and broke the law.

[Sighs]

I've lost my edge.

I should have stayed home with the puzzle.

Listen to yourself.

You're so hard core! Who cares about pants? You gunned it from the cops! That's the most scared I've been since you almost let me die! - You're a criminal now! - "Now?" [Grunts]

I've been a criminal for 6,000 years.

[Laughs]

[Music plays in distance]

Wait.

Do you hear that? - Oh.

- We made it! I'm like a star I'm burning out fast I try to shine But it's never gonna last [Gasps]

And there's the girl.

She's actually here.

- No way.

- I'm going to talk to her.

Look, Pearl.

I already think you're cool.

You can ease into "the socializing with Humans" thing.

Watch Steven for me.

Wait, no! You can start smaller! - Talk to a nerd! - Amethyst.

Aw, no! Ooh.

She's starting with a handshake? Oh, she went for it.

They're both smiling.

Amethyst: [Sighs]

I can't believe this.

What is Pearl saying? I don't know, but the girl's laughing.

You think she's laughing at her or with her? Hard to tell.

Shh-shh! She's coming back! - How'd it go? - I asked her about her hair, and then she asked how I colored mine.

I told her "My appearance is just a conscious manifestation of light.

" And she said, "I know how that is.

" Although, [laughs]

I highly doubt it.

Oh, and then I added, "By the way, I saved your planet and your species and you're welcome.

" - And how'd that go over? - Not very well.

She walked off after giving me some sort of code.

[Laughing]

- No way! - Pearl, that's a phone number! She wants you to call her and talk to her on the phone! - Oh, well, I don't have a phone.

- Pearl! You just like gave her some Shakespearean spiel about light then got her number like it was nothing! [Laughs]

Pearl, you're a total rock star! What if I told you that the world was gonna end? And you had 15 minutes to spend with me or your friends Would you take The first bus over to my house Or would you take the last plane over the West Coast? See, it's times like these with the change of heart It was over and done
