1x43 - "Maximum Capacity"

~ Fora Temer ~

And I really like
the ones that shoot up



- kind of spirally with the long tails.
- Steven, I'm slipping.

- Hold that end up a little more.
- Oh. Sorry!

That's okay. I'm not sure the

"Summer wax special"
sign was that effective anyway,

but I can't bring
myself to throw myself out.

Might as well store it
for the rest of the Winter.

So, which firework
is your favorite, Dad?

Oh. Uh, I don't know.
I just like watching them

- together with you.
- Yeah, me, too!

I can't wait for
New Year's eve tomorrow.

It feels like I've waited a whole year!

Well, you feel that way for a reason.

Mm. Mm.

Hmm.



Whoa!
I haven't really cleared this

place out since your mom ...

Maybe this is good timing ...
a new year coming up.

I should just get rid of all this stuff.

I could take
these off your hands.

That's a start, but I'll need
a little more help than that,

and this guy's not gonna do it.
Who would organize

- a mess this big, though?
- Ah!

I know just the gem!

Here's Amethyst!

- Surprise.
- Oh.

- Something wrong?
- Well, no.

I just thought you meant Pearl.

What?!
I'm not letting Pearl see this!

Amethyst's room is full of junk.
She knows how to handle a mess.

- I don't know about this.
- Hey, man, it's cool.

I've seen your junk before.

What you need here is a system
... something to separate

- the trash from the garbage.
- Well, how 'bout this?

- Huh?
- I made organizational boxes.

This way we can sort everything

into easy categories ...
keep, sell, burn.

- What do you think?
- I don't know if we should

- burn anything.
- Ah, come on, Greg!?

- What are you afraid of?
- Fire?

- Keep. Keep. Keep.
- Whoa! Hold on.

Aren't we supposed to
be throwing stuff away?

Are you crazy?!
You've got some seriously good

- junk in here, man, like...
- Books!

- Ah. So, books are cool again.
- Yeah, ever since you

guys grounded me from
TV for a thousand years.

- We did what, now?
- Can I have these?

Uh, hold on. Let me
see some of those first.

Yeah, I think you'll like this one

and this one, and, uh...

maybe we'll save this one for
when you're a little older.

- Ugh!
- Ha!

You bought this?! Ha!

Uh... I guess I don't
need these old dumbbells.

Ah, come on.
Don't you want to get yoked?!

Come on, Amethyst.
Knock it off.

Oh, no.

- How did this happen?
- A photo of you and Mom.

Ah, it's ... it's okay.

- It's just the frame.
- He-e-e-e-y!

I found something that
definitely doesn't belong with

- all this this junk.
- Is it the deed to my uncle's mansion?

Even better.

Is that... "Li'l Butler"?
Oh, where have you been

- all these years?!
- # Li'l Butler, that's you #

- Amethyst, what's "Li'l Butler"?
- Oh, man.

Steven, we used to watch
these all the time when

you were little.
You've got to see this!

Hey!
I-I'm still grounded, you know!

Come on.
Just one, for old times' sake.

Okay, but just one.

♪ An orphaned boy with
sass and pep got dropped ♪

♪ off on our mansion step ♪

leaves, and now he works

You people have too much money.

Whoa.
Ah, no! Grounded!

Sh-Sh-Shouldn't we finish
cleaning the storage unit?!

Oh, man!

Is this the pilot?
They didn't even have

- the dog yet.
- Oh, yeah!

They just had a cat named "Money"!

Hey, Steven, it's getting pretty late.

Why don't we just call it a day?
We can pick this up again tomorrow.

Uh... okay.
See you tomorrow, Dad!

Did any of you order a baby?

Hey.
I'll take two breakfast-only

- breakfast specials, please.
- Sure.

Ronaldo! Can I get
a double order of hash browns?

Yeah.
My Dad and I got a big day

cleaning the storage unit.
Got to start the year off

- right, you know.
- Wow! That's really

practical of you, Steven.
My Dad and I are restocking

all the condiments.
I get to clean the bottles.

We're supposed to wash them
twice, but I always wash them

three times.
Odd numbers just feel cleaner.

Hey, are you going
to the New Year's

- fireworks tonight?
- Yeah! It's supposed to be

pretty darn spectacular!
Mayor Dewey's been setting up

all morning. There
are gonna be blue ones!

- I love the blue ones.
- It's gonna be so awesome.

You guys? Dad?

I'll look like a fool if I show
up to school on just one pony!

You people have too much money!

What a surprise.
Li'l Butler does it again.

You can always count on Li'l B.

Yeah. Everything's always

right with him.
One more?

- Do it!
- Hey!

Oh, Steven!
What are you doing coming

- over so late?
- It's... morning.

Oh, wow.
I guess we lost track of the time.

You never stopped
watching "Li'l Butler"?! Ugh!

When you get to
season 3, it really starts

getting good.
That's when the uptight

neighbors, the
Richingtons, move next-door.

Ha! They're a riot!

- Well, I never!
- Well, I always!

- Well, you want to get started?
- Oh, yeah.

Ooh, this part is so good.

I guess the
storage unit can wait.

Yeah, buddy.
That sounds like a good idea.

- All right! Snacks!
- Want to just meet

- at the fireworks?
- Sure.

Okay. I'll see you there.

- Like this?
- Yeah!

You guys are killin' it!
And here are some pots and pans.

We got to make lots of noise.
Dad and I do this every year.

I brought some for Amethyst, too.

- They should be here any second.
- Why would she

come with Greg?

- Are they hanging out again?
- What do you mean, "again"?

They'd better not be watching

- that dumb show.
- "Li'l Butler"?

Unbelievable!

They really are! They
used to disappear for days,

watching those obnoxious tapes
over and over and over, until...

- Until what?
- I don't know.

One day, they just stopped.

Happy new year, Steven.
How's my volume?

It's low.

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

What's that?
I'm missing the fireworks!

It's past midnight! How did I get
so sucked into this show again?

It's like everything else
just disappears!

Whoa, whoa.
Don't go.

We're having a really good time!
Here. Look.

I've got the 2-part Hawaii special.

But Steven really wanted
me to do New Year's.

He'll be fine.
He's Steven.

- He's tough.
- I wanted to be there!

Here. Here.
It would have been like this.

Whoa! Fireworks!

Hey, Dad, come on!
Now let's watch

- some "Li'l Butler"!
- Amethyst, you know how I feel

- about shapeshifting.
- Geez. Sorry.

I was just trying to cheer you up.

Oh, that's right ... I forgot.
You're so sensitive.

I know you like making me
uncomfortable, but it's not funny.

I can't stay here and humor you.

- I have to be there for my son.
- Well, what about me, huh?

I had someone who was
always there for me

until she started hanging out with you!

Don't do this, Amethyst ...
seriously.

I bet you'd stay for her.

- You wouldn't.
- What? Do this?

- Where are you going after Hawaii?
- Hey, Greg

Turn around.
Check it out!

I know you're doing it!
I want to be friends again.

I really do.
But I can't let you do this

- to me again!
- Stop!

What are you two doing?!

I get it.
It's hard to deal with stuff

from the past.
You want to put it off because

there's tons of it
and it's really heavy and it means

a lot to you,
so it's hard to let anything go.

But you got to,
because this thing is full!

Seriously, when did
you even have a cat?!

Okay.
We're finishing this today.

Right.
What? Pearl?

Hello, Greg.
Nice of you to join us.

- I don't believe it!
- Whoa!

- I'm so sorry about the mess.
- Was this... your idea?

- Well...
- It was Amethyst's idea.

I-I just thought we

could take all this
stuff back to the temple.

It can fit in my room.
That way, you don't have

to throw anything away.
But ... But you can keep this.

Uh... thank you, Amethyst.

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