Steven's Summer Adventure might be over, but it still had one more surprise up its sleeve. Two fusions talking it out about fusion for a whole episode? Yes, please!

"Those two are acting very suspicious! Should we ask them what's going on?" "I can't." "Riiiiight." |

"But do you know who beat Jasper?" "You two?" "Peridot." |
Y'know up until this point I thought they were playing along, but Smoky Quartz hit them like a truck. I love their reactions!
Like look at Pearl. If she were a fusion, she would've split in half by now!
And Garnet can't stop screaming. What a couple of adorable proud moms!
And we get Sardonyx this episode! That's great! I was worried she'd only make tiny cameos ever since Cry For Help, but... oh, and two of those yo-yos were headed for support beams. Probably a good thing she appeared when she did!

"You've made quite the impression already! In fact, there's one in the wall over there..." |
Like a glove!

"Goo-ood evening everybody!" |
I love how the storyboarders and animators always take the characters' extra arms into account. Sardonyx always has great poses.

"Yeah... she lost her mind in a corrupted fusion. I uh... I guess you could say she had a short fuse?" "Oh ho ho ho!" |

"Easy crowd, huh? Where'd you get 'em?" "I made them myself." |

"Don't those cartoon characters make you wanna buy those products? I sure hope so or else I'd be off the air." |
Right game, wrong episode! Darnit!
It's a good thing Cartoon Network got permission to air a clip from... itself.

"Oh! Oh, well, a bow is kinda like a yo-yo, right?" |

"She's not actually in this episode. Do we still have to pay her? Yes? Fair enough." |
So the strength gauge goes Pearl, Stevonnie, Garnet, Opal, Sugilite, huh? I notice you wisely left yourself off it, Sardonyx. Wait, does that mean Stevonnie can also beat Pearl in a fight? Ooooh this next season's gonna be good!

"Maybe you're just strong! ♬In a different way...♬" |

"I dunno, Sards. I guess 0 + 0 = 0. They say that two wrongs don't make a right. I guess I'm living proof that that's true! I'm just one big super-wrong. A good-for-nothing dud with a yo-yo!" |
I feel the same way, Sardonyx. It's really hard listening to someone tear themselves down like that. Especially when it kinda started as a joke and you can tell it's clearly past the point where they're just hate-ranting about themselves. And it's gotta be an extra kicker when all your attempts to build them up just ended up making them feel worse.

"They want to impress us! They were planning this all morning, we hijacked their show! I was excited! It's not about us!" |
Oh hey, Ruby and Sapphire! I wonder how much practice they've had keeping themselves together during a catastrophic un-fusing?
So... is Smoky Quartz's power all about thinking quickly in a crisis? Or is it just being really good with a yo-yo?

"Oh Amethyst! You've been such a good influence on him!" |
Dat hug.
And there you have it. Summer of Steven! Steven's Summer Adventure! Smoky Quartz! Sardonyx! See you this fall tomorrow next week!
