Steven Universe (2013–…): Season 1, Episode 24 - An Indirect Kiss - full transcript

A sad Steven tells Connie the story of his mission to heal Amythest when she cracks her gem.

Steven, hurry up!

Are you okay?

- I'm fine.
- Are you sure you're okay?

Yeah.

Okay. Uh, so, um...
Is this fence new?

Eh... it's a long story.

- Is it a magic story?!
- M-M-M-a-a-a-ybe...?

Well, what happened?!
Tell me. Please?

Okay, okay.
But it's not a happy story.

Amethyst was horsing
around by the cliff.

Amethyst, be careful!



Steven, why you getting so
worked up?

What ... do you care about me or
something?

- Yes!
- Aw, Steven, I

didn't mean to make you ...
whoa-a-a-a-a-a!

Amethyst, stop!
You're gonna fall!

Ooh!
Steven, I'm

- gonna fa-a-ll!
- Amethyst, you're

- gonna get hurt!
- Steven, please.

I'm a gem warrior.
I'm not gonna fa...

Ugh. This is so embarrassing.

I'm okay!

So, I ran down there
as fast as I could.

- Are you sure you're okay?
- Yes, Steven.

I'm fine, except for this!



- Amethyst!
- Great.

- Show me your gem!
- Fresh!

Amethyst, your gem is cracked!

Rude!
It's not a big deal!

Plus, now I have this cool
googly eye!

How did this happen?

She fell off the
cliff by the lighthouse.

- Did not!
- Of course.

How could I have been so blind?
We need to put a fence up there

- so this will never happen again!
- And that's why there's a fence. The end.

- Wait, what happened to Amethyst?
- Uh...

- Come on. Tell me the rest!
- I don't wanna.

Steven?
Steven...

- Mm...
- Steven!

Okay, okay! But only if you
let me try on your glasses.

Only if you give me the rest
of your juice.

Okay, but it's mostly backwash.

- Good enough.
- How do I look?

- I have no idea.
- Well, um, so...

Uh, we were all worried about Amethyst.

So, what's the problem?

- Amethyst falls on stuff all the time.
- It'd be fine if it was

just her body, but her gem is damaged.

So what do you do to fix it?

Before...
we had Rose.

Steven, your mother
had healing tears that

flowed from her gem. She
felt real love for those

around her. She felt real
sorrow when they were hurt.

You have the Rose Quartz gem now.

- I know that power is in you, too.
- Amethyst, show me your gem!

Yeah, all right.

The power to heal.

It's not working. I guess
I'm just too tough to cry.

Just today, you were
crying about snakes.

- They don't have any arms!
- We have no choice.

We need to take Amethyst to
Rose's healing spring.

Guys, I'm fine.
I'm not gonna get any

wor-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r...
r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r...

_

And in the center of
the garden ... Rose's fountain,

overflowing with your mother's
healing, lachrymal essence!

- I don't see it.
- Wha...

_

Now, now!

Uh, let's keep it together!
Our memories of Rose can't be

tainted by some overgrown brambles!

Look at them. They're
a mess without her guidance.

Directionless, pathetic,
clinging things.

- It's going to be okay, Garnet.
- Sure.

Y-Y-You really think so?

Healing tears!

Hmm.
Maybe there's a path over here!

_

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

Pain can make one cry.

Where is pain?

Amethyst, no more roughhousing!

You'll exacerbate your crack!

_

Aw, right in the gem.

_

Ohh! Oh! Keep calm.
What we need to do is get you

Into the fountain immediately,
if we can ever find the way

- under all this mess!
- Shh.

I needed that.
This way.

We could've probably gotten in

without hurtling a giant
rock into Rose's most

precious sanctuary!
But if you're okay with it,

I'm fine, too!

This isn't right.

- The fountain isn't running.
- What?

- W-What's wrong with it?
- I'm not sure.

Is that... mom?
Oh, oh, I'm getting emotional!

I think it's happening!
Uh, I'm really feeling it!

Headache!

So give back my glasses and
finish the story!

Ah, come on! I had it!

Steven, it's fine. Just ...

just stay here and watch Amethyst.

We'll find out what's wrong with
the fountain.

No, no. Wait!
I can still do it!

Wait, wait!

It might still happen!
Guys?

_

I can't understand you!
I don't understand anything!

Why is everyone acting so strange?

Why can't I ...
why can't I cry?!

Why can't I cry?

It's just...

I mean, I don't know
how to feel about you,

but everybody else does.

I wish I could have met you.

Then this place could make me
sad, and I could cry

healing tears, like you.

Are you okay?

Keep going.

Amethyst, Where's your gem?

Amethyst, I'm sorry!

I can't do anything right.

Now I'm going to lose
you, and it's all my fault.

Ha, ha.
You care about me.

Please let me be a magic healer.

Oh, come on!

Look at this guy,
saving my life and junk.

- Oh, thank goodness.
- Did you see what I did?

It was magic!

My tears brought the fountain
back to life and saved Amethyst!

I'm pretty sure Garnet
and I unplugging a clogged

chamber brought the
fountain back to life.

- We saved Amethyst.
- You don't think my

crying was a little related to that?

Oh, Steven, you don't
have healing tears.

You'll never have any real magic
powers, and we don't want

- anything more to do with you.
- She didn't really say that.

No, but that's what it felt like.

Is that why you've been so down?

Oh.
You can have your juice back.

Nah, that's okay.

Everyone expects me to be like my mom.

What if I never get those powers?

Then you'll be like me.
That's not so bad.

But if I don't have
powers, then I can't hang out

with Amethyst or Garnet or
Pearl, and I-I can't

- go on missions!
- You don't need any powers

to be here with me.

Ow. Ugh.

- What's wrong?
- I think ...

There's just ...
there's something wrong with my

glasses.
My... My eyes.

I-I-I can see!

- What?
- I can see without my glasses!

Did I heal your eyes?
But how?

The juice box!

I don't have healing tears!
I have healing spit!

What am I going to tell my parents?

What am I going to tell my optometrist?!

I don't even know!
Oh, thank you, Connie!

Lion, let's go tell the gems!
They're never gonna believe this!
