Amethyst didn't have to cook anything because she was just eating the cheese flavoring packet. Which is why later in the episode Steven is eating "just macaroni and nothing". Also the neurodiverse nacho has finally arrived. Best character.

"Neurodiverse Nacho" goes hard

[@Alfwin]

Shouldn't that be "neurodivergent", not "neurodiverse"? A single person can't be diverse, neuro- or otherwise, because diversity means variation within a _group_ -- but a single person can _diverge_ from the norm. But yeah she is the best character.

garnet wearing oven mittens is so funny to me cause she can easily swim in lava but she's probably just setting a good example for steven

[@smith22041]

You just reminded me of some alt-Superman lore, where Lois thinks Clark is a bumbling bachelor because he doesn't have oven mitts, stepladder etc.

[@KotetsuFour]

There's actually a really cute animatic I saw once where a toddler Steven, not knowing Garnet is heat-resistant, is worried about her taking things out the oven without mittens. Pearl tries to explain it to Steven, but Garnet just puts the mittens on

[@Sairin13]

She's going to be surprised when she finds out that the Temple statue is based off of a fusion between Garnet, Amethyst, Sadie and Onion

[@DanGamingFan2406]

I can't be the only one who got really angry at Pearl this episode, right? The way she kept dismissing Steven and insisting she couldn't be wrong is one thing, but her attitude when they checked the space warp pad was uncalled for. And she didn't even apologize.

[@gooeycutiee2094]

i’m the number one pearl defender and i 100% agree

[@tritiumH3]

She was terrified. She did that thing that people do, where they act like they can argue something out of existence. Which is very very human and understandable, but never okay, especially with kids.

[@redballoon9007]

Yeah I was and still am frustrated at Pearl for the way she treated him.

[@Dead-fire]

I was pissed too like I’ve never been so pissed at her like that was when Garnet became my new favorite

[@ninetailskwami]

i remember disliking pearl as a child and getting especially annoyed at these types of scenes but now i just really appreciate showing the depth of her character. she's seen as this responsible, motherly role model all the time for steven but that's not all she is; she's flawed. she messes up sometimes, raising a child she never wanted or knew how to raise.

[@247otaku]

18:30 I can't believe she completely forgot about Lapis, running away from her responsibilities as the true Leader of the group, thats just her gem activating even though she's run away

[@therethan-family1234]

Yeah; I get all the focus on Warp Tour, but The Test is a major turning point in my mind (especially to revisit after Future.)

What's really weird is that she ends up with a clod named "Bob". That came totally out of left field.

[@grizlo6716]

peridot is actually one of the highest ranking gems due to her shape language, gem culture is founded upon worship of basic geographical forms, which also explains Garnet's strength due to her square-ness, this all leads up to the moment we meet the leader of all the gems, who is one large orb

[@Gungun.....]

peridot plays such an important role in the show such as introducing the word 'clod' as an insult., truly inspiring

[@mysticeeye]

Gem fact: Despite being organic in nature pearls are gems, this also includes amber and petrified wood.

[@KotetsuFour]

So many sarcastic comments about Peridot being a great character. In the season 2 finale, she kills Greg.

[@Gungun.....]

the slow motion of him falling to his death was so painful

[@patricksullivan2261]

Peridot has an interesting character arc. She's actually a member of a religious group that pops around the universe asking gems if they've accepted Jade as their savior. It is why the group is so terrified of her. If you see one of them, others will follow. And they might even leave flyers.

Also, how many times do we have to say…Garnet is more powerful because her gems are in her hands . This allows her to be excellent at arm wrestling… which as we know is highly important to gem culture.

[@chefcircuit5392]

That actually might be something: garnet is strength, so maybe having gems in her hands is symbolic? Now I wanna look at where everyone else’s gems are

[@Crossroadsinc]

Oh... you rascal... I hope deeply that the importance of this is not lost on certain people. As we well know, Arm Wrestle IS indeed highly important to Gem Culture. I would say however that garnets strength doesn't come because she is "good at arm wrestling" per say. BUT it is important to remember that real reason why her gems are different... The answer of course.... IS BASEBALL!!!!

Garnet has a square and a triangular gem because in real life, garnets are cube-based crystals but most have diamond shaped faces, and they are super tough. That's a rock fact!

[@Black_golem]

If a fusion is really big it requires a catalyst. Alexandrite was at the verge of falling apart constantly, because of how many people she was comprised of. A fusion of even more people than alexandrite requires a catalyst, and that catalyst is the temple.

[@ghostsurfer23]

The Test becomes ones of the saddest episodes in retrospect, and I wish that were a fake spoiler. Anyway, I can't wait until the Gems find out Peridot is just an intergalactic toothpaste spokesperson, explaining why her little goobers kept trying to freshen Steven's breath with toothpaste. The whole situation winds up being a huge misunderstanding, which makes Garnet's reaction at the end of that episode very funny.

I think you forgot the idea that garnet killed a gem and decided to consume its powers, that leading to her second fist, and amazing glasses, I love the glasses being a weapon, season 4 is where they really get their chance

[@CanidRose]

I always thought that the underlying "vibes" of Warp Tour were kind of reminiscent of when you're a kid, and your family is getting along, everything's going well. But something's wrong and you need to say something, but it feels like you're ruining the peace, a peace which may or may not be very common depending on how functional your family is. Idk, it just gave off that energy of guilty, yet indignant, anxiety.

[@tequilalong4345]

Peridot is a beautiful, vibrant green gemstone that belongs to the mineral family of olivine. The chemical formula for peridot is (Mg, Fe)2SiO4, indicating that it is primarily composed of magnesium, iron, and silicate. Peridot has a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. This makes it relatively durable and suitable for use in various types of jewelry, though it is not as hard as some other gemstones like diamonds or sapphires. Because of its hardness, peridot can be scratched by harder substances, so it’s important to take care of peridot jewelry to prevent damage. High-Pressure Formation: Peridot forms under high temperatures and pressures deep within the Earth's mantle. It is brought to the surface through volcanic activity, particularly by lava flows known as basalt. Lava Bombs and Xenoliths: Sometimes, peridot is found in volcanic rocks as lava bombs or in mantle xenoliths, pieces of the mantle that are carried to the surface by magma. Meteorites: Peridot has also been found in meteorites, specifically in pallasite meteorites, which are a rare type of stony-iron meteorite. These meteorites contain olivine crystals, some of which are gem-quality peridot.

also wow, mosco almost guessing the fact that garnet fused with tanzanite's poofed gem after tanzanite went rogue and garnet had to poof her. garnet taking tanzanite's gem and absorbing her power but giving her no consciousness or control over the fusion... dark stuff, man.

[@arcticbanana66]

Finally, the introduction of everyone's favorite angry green Dorito! I've always loved the way her hands worked. The title "Warp Tour" is a reference to the famous Warped Tour, a traveling rock tour that toured the United States and Canada every summer from 1995 until 2019, and planned to start again in 2025. It was the largest traveling music festival in the United States and the longest-running touring music festival to date in North America.

I think the first time I watched this episode I saw The Test as a really sweet ending but now I think it's sad that Steven had to sweep his own feelings aside for their sake :( Kid should be allowed to process his feelings for sure

[@twofacetoo75]

NOW you start to get to some of the interesting little payoffs. Remember way back in the sea spire episode, at the end when they were in the water, they said 2 of Steven's 4 ideas worked, and Amethyst jokingly said 'that's at least 50%'? That's because it was always a test, and that was always the intention behind the writing in that episode. Hence all the moments they let Steven take the reigns on what to do next, because they were specifically doing this FOR HIM. Also, Steven did lose his healing powers. He healed his dad, but thought it didn't work because Greg was lying to spend time with him, that caused him to lose confidence, and as a result, his healing powers stopped working and he couldn't heal the geode. That's what they were saying: Steven lost his confidence, and that caused him to lose his powers, they can't afford to let that happen again, so they rigged up this whole test PURELY to give him a 'win' to try and help him along.

[@possumprince]

i love all these joking comments about peridot being the best character when she never appears again after this episode lmao

[@ntwwolf6908]

The more I watch your videos, the more I think you did a good job helping raise the twins. Just the way you sound like a very caring big sis who took on what would arguably be a lot for another kid but you learned on the job. Also, your reaction to trying to figure out what kind of gem Peridot was, excellence. Your face of ‘someone who got no answers’ is probably how I looked when my sister got me into the show (she started with me with the Space Race episode, so I was just confused for a bit).

[@TastySalamanders]

Can't believe the foreshadowing here that Steven will trigger Third Impact.

[@gingercat_02]

The gems try to fix one of those round maintenance robots in one of the later episodes, but all they managed to do is get it to walk in circles saying have you seen my dad.

[@LagostaAssada]

The blue gem is actually from Greg, he was watching from outside and then activated the door, he's also secretly a blue diamond 💎

[@Rosewolf29]

My mom always knelt down until she was literally eye level with me to talk to me about something important, like if i wanted a toy she would get down to my level and tell me we could carry it around the store and then put it back with its friends before left. never threw a tantrum over it and it amazed people. I use that same tactic for friend's kids and another friend's foster kids. works like a dream.

[@alastor8571]

when you watched the whole show you realize just how much mature steven was at such young age

[@baraxor]

Some say that Warp Tour is the real episode one of the Steven Universe series. A Gem hierarchy? You're treading close to the Gem-Who-Cannot-Be-Named: Concrete! The Test was such a great character-driven episode, showcasing Steven's development and how he's matured from earlier in the series. He could have told off GAP for their shenanigans and lack of faith, but when Steven evesdropped he realized that his passing the test successfully was even more important to them than it was to him. He went along with the charade to boost their confidence, demonstrating how he's now looking after the well-being of the team rather than himself; that's he's slowly becoming the true heir of Rose Quartz.

Okay, fine, I've been sitting on this spoiler because it's mostly from a filler episode but... The sport of baseball was invented by Rose Quartz, due to a misunderstanding. The influence of the Crystal Gems in the early sport is why it's called a diamond. Too bad you don't see it played.

Such a leap on maturity for Steven and I think quite relatable for older kids and grown ups… realizing that your carers (and adults in general) aren’t infallible and they don’t always know what they’re doing. Steven’s started to realize and here he decided to take care of them for a change. He’s still a kid though, so this is quite bitter-sweet.

[@emergencystoppingonly]

Peridot is absolutely one of my favorite, if not most favorite, character in this show. Her voice actor does incredible, and she has sooo many funny scenes, she is hilarious. Oh and your quest for answers will go all the way to the end, seriously. No quarter for lore hunters in this show. It's mysteries the entire time and people who watched as it was still airing were suffering like crazy. Absolutely on purpose they planned the show in advance for the entire 5 seasons to maximize the mysteries.

[@danidanfm4005]

well since you figured it out already its not much of a spoiler, but gems can have up to seven of their gems on them (like one pearl, two garnets, three peridots, etc). what IS a spoiler, is that steven is not 'steven' but 'seven'. he is actually made of seven pieces. pieces of what and whom? and how does greg universe fit into that? thats a spoiler for next time on ZpoilerZ ^^
