Steven Universe (2013–…): Season 1, Episode 44 - Marble Madness - full transcript
With the Gems tired of fighting waves of Peridot's robots, Steven comes up with a new, but dangerous plan to try and end it.
~ Fora Temer ~
Can I look yet?
Okay.
Books!
Whoa! Cool cover.
It's my favorite series.
It's about this girl named Lisa,
and she's a witch.
I mean, she doesn't know she's
a witch at first.
And she has a familiar, which is
sort of like this spirit companion
that everyone in the world has,
and hers is a talking
falcon named Archimicarus.
Anyways, she goes on this quest
to find her father after
he's kidnapped by a
mysterious one-eyed man.
- Whoa! Mystery!
- Here, let me get you started.
"Chapter one: The morning thief.
Lisa awoke with a start,
the echoes of her dreams still
dancing in her mind.
The low rumble of thunder
murmured through the quiet house."
Whoa!
- This is a really good book.
- Uh... okay.
"The house was deathly still.
The only sound Lisa could hear
was her own heartbeat
pounding in her ears.
The hairs on her neck tingled
when suddenly..."
What the...
What was that?
- It's one of the marble robots!
- What?
Huh?!
- Amethyst! Pearl!
- Hyah!
- You okay?
- I love hanging out at your place.
- Pearl, do you think this was ...
- One of Peridot's machines?
Yes, I think so, only ...
we've never seen one this big before.
- Or this gooey.
- Amethyst, we need to be careful.
We don't know what this stuff is.
Oh, no. Don't you
dare get that stuff on me!
Goop hug!
Come here, Pearl!
I love you, Pearl!
Peridot. Is that the
gem you told me about ...
the one that's trying
to come to Earth?
Yeah, we stopped her
before, but I guess she can
still shoot stuff here from space.
So, what do you think it was here to do?
We destroyed it.
That's all that matters.
Hmm.
Goop hug!
Connie!
The Steven Universe boy
would like to speak with you.
I swear that's not his real name.
Hi, Steven. What's up?
Have you read more
- "Unfamiliar familiar"?
- Yeah, but I'm ...
Isn't it amazing?
- How far did you get?
- I'm in the middle
of one of them, but I'm really confused.
They keep talking about this
plinkman guy who died.
- Am I supposed to know who he is?
- Plinkman?
But that's Lisa's dad.
Steven, you're reading them
- in order, right?
- There's an order?!
Aw, man. I just started with
the one with the coolest cover.
Hello?
Connie?
What the...
Something
entered the atmosphere.
Up there!
It's another one of those things!
It landed on mask island.
- Come on!
- Connie, I'm gonna call you back!
Is it looking for a warp?
We have to stop it!
Yeesh.
What are these things trying to do?
We're not really that sure.
- It's not trying to do anything now.
- Mm.
Okay, so, you read the first
three books in order.
- Do you... like them?
- Of course!
They're awesome!
I really love Lisa's familiar.
He's my favorite.
I'm just confused about
- one thing, though.
- Mm, what's that?
- What is a familiar?
- Nooo.
Was that another one
of those marble things?
- Yeah.
- Grrr! What is with these things?!
- This is like the fifth one this week.
- We'll find it in the desert.
Connie, talk later.
Wait, you guys! Wait for me!
Stop coming here, you stupid balls!
Yeah, let it out! Get crazy!
- Wah!
- Guys, guys, guys!
Stop!
How many more of these things
- are you gonna have to fight?
- We don't know!
They just keep coming and
coming, and we don't even know
what they are!
We don't know anything!
Th-That's okay.
I-I don't know anything all the time.
It's like my whole life.
But I've got you guys to tell me
about gem stuff, Connie can explain what
familiars are, and Dad
tells me weird Dad stuff.
But nobody knows what
these things are here to do.
Well... it probably does.
- What?
- We could follow it
- and see where it goes.
- Are you nuts?!
Who knows what could go wrong?!
We can't fight
these things forever.
Well, we can, but I don't want to.
- Let's do it Steven's way.
- Yeah!
# let's follow the funky flo-o-o-w#
We're dead.
All right, big guy.
- Mush.
- Oh, oh, oh!
Whoo-hoo!
Kindergarten.
Oh, why here?
This site has been damaged
enough by the gems that were
incubated here 6,000 years ago.
That's it! It's confirmed!
- This thing is up to no good.
- Wait!
We don't even know what it's
doing here.
Can't we just see where it wants to go?
- Garnet.
- Mm...
- Steven's way.
- Ugh.
What does it want here?
Maybe it just wants
to see where Amethyst was made.
Maybe it should
mind its own business.
I don't like this at all.
- But ...
- I'm kind of with
- Pearl on this one.
- Aw, come on.
Can't you feel this guy's funky flow?
- He's a funk master.
- I can't believe we're doing this.
Why'd you stop, little buddy?
- Something's happening.
- Whoa!
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
Yes!
See? I knew we'd find
something cool! Let's go.
Hey, guys. Goin' down?
- Are you okay?
- What is all this?
What's that sound?
Establish gem-projection
link with control room.
Plug robonoid has successfully
landed on planet Earth and
entered prime kindergarten
control room in Facet 5.
We'll proceed to perform
status-check of kindergarten.
It's Peridot.
Is she trying to
re-activate the kindergarten?
Doesn't she know it'll destroy
all life on Earth?
- Why don't we ask her?
- Shh!
Steven, we're facing an enemy
we don't know,
a technology we don't understand.
This isn't the time to be
- asking questions.
- Really sounds like it is.
Okay, here's the plan ...
we can't let her see us,
so we wait for an opening.
When she's distracted,
we destroy the power
source on the far wall.
Steven stays here.
- Hmm.
- Hmm.
Steven!
Now accounting for all
operational injectors.
Checking for aberrations
in perimeter.
This gem tech is simply archaic.
Uh, I don't know.
I think it looks pretty cool.
Hi. I'm Steven.
There appears to be an infestation
of..."Stevens" in the kindergarten.
Aw, I'm not so bad
once you get to know me.
And how many more Stevens
are present in this area?
Oh.
Just me.
Ah, that's a relief.
So, tell me, have Stevens
replaced humans as the
dominant species on Earth?
Oh, no, there's lots of humans.
There's my Dad, Connie, Lars,
and Sadie, the mailman, Onion ...
I think.
Lots of people!
- Hmm.
- Now I get to ask a question.
What are you doing?
Mm.
Just picking up where we left off.
A gem?!
More?
But the red eye didn't report
the presence of any gems on this planet.
That's because we destroyed it.
You what?
But the records say that gems
were wiped out on Earth.
Wait a minute.
You're the ones that have been
destroying my plug robonoids!
Are you the reason the
homeworld warp is down again?
Is this your bizarre icon?!
Ohh!
Why do you keep destroying my things?!
Because we are the Crystal Gems!
We're still alive, and
we're still the guardians
of this planet and all
its living creatures!
The Crystal Gems?
Stop! How dare you?!
I'm doing this one way or another.
You're just
making it really difficult!
Amethyst, now!
- Destroy!
- I'm reporting this!
Is it over?
Okay.
I-I might have gone a little
- too far this time.
- Well, Steven, you weren't
completely wrong.
We learned something new because
- of your decisions.
- All right!
But, yeah, this
was a pretty bad idea.
Aw, man.
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
