"LION 4: Alternate Ending"

Steven, we can't both exist.

I'm going to become half of you.

And I need you to know

that every moment
you love being yourself,

that's me, loving you,

and loving being you...

because you're going to be
something extraordinary.

You're going to be...

[ Rewinding ]

You're going to be
something extraordinary.

You're going to be
something extraordinary.



[ Rewinding ]

Extraordinary...
experience.

[ Growls ]

Okay, I think
I've got something.

[ Clears throat ]

So, this time,
I put together the first letter

of the first word
of every sentence.

It spells "Ittaisiaby."

[ Purring ]

It might not sound like much,

but if you rearrange
those letters,

it says "Bait it I say,"
or "I stay a bit,"

or "I bitty Asia."

Well [sighs] "I bitty Asia"
could mean something.

Maybe I'm supposed to
go back to Asia?

And... bite something?

[ Yawns ]

[ Sighs ]

There has to be a clue
somewhere.

Mom said she wanted to have me.

But that must mean
there's a reason.

There has to be something
I was meant to do.

My magical gem destiny.

[ Snorting, gagging ]

Come on, Lion.
I need you to focus here.

[ Lion retching ]
No, no, no!

Lion, at least do it
on the floor!

[ Liquid splatters ]

Why is it always on the bed?

[ Gasps ]

Magical hair-ball
destiny!

[ Lion retches ]

Okay.
That's gross.

Right. Anyway.

This key.

Mom must have wanted you
to give this to me now.

What does it open?

Hm...

Oh!

Hey, Lion.

Mm?

Mm.

Mmmm!

[ Gasps ]

Maybe if I...

[ Gasps ]

If this key isn't for
that chest, then what is it for?

♪♪

[ Splashing ]

Nothing to unlock here.

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

So, not here, either?

Give me something
this key unlocks.

[ Pop! ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Pouf! ]

[ Groans ]

Hmm...

[ Gasps ]
Of course!

The answers were inside me
the whole time!

[ Sighs ]

Where am I supposed to go?

This has to unlock something.

There must be someplace
I haven't been.

Lion.

Take me somewhere new.

[ Yawns ]

Hey, come on.

Where did you get this?

Can you please take me there?

Pleeeeease?

[ Muffled ] Pleeeee...

[Normal voice]
eeeease?

[ Wind whistling ]

Hey.
This is where we found you.

Something of Mom's
is hidden here, right?

Take me there.

[ Weakly ]
Where are we going?

It's been hours.

[ Sighs ]

Mom... who were you?

Who am I?

Garnet...

Amethyst...

Pearl...

They won't say it, but...

I know they expect
something big from me.

But how can I fulfill my destiny
if I don't even know what it is?

Who am I supposed to be?

Mom?

[ Gasps ]

♪♪

So this is it.

Couldn't we
have just warped here?

Whatever's behind this door,
I know it's something important.

Please tell me my destiny.

[ Click ]

Wha...?

What?

Is this...
just Rose's trash dump?

No.

Please!

There was supposed to be
something here

to tell me my purpose!

This is just a bunch of garbage
Mom left behind!

[ Growls ]

[ Sniffles ]

Huh?

It's... another tape from Mom?

But... wh-who's Nora?

A-Am I not the only one?

Do I have a sister?

Lion!

What is this?

W-Who's Nora?

I know I've asked a lot
from you today,

but please, just one more time.

I need your help.

I need to know
what this tape means.

I won't get mad the next time
you throw up on my bed.

This is near Beach City.

Lion, are you sure
this is the right...

Nora.

[ Panting ]

♪♪ Guitar music playing...

Oh, hey, Shtu-ball.

Dad?!
You're Nora?

Who?

What are you doing here?

Getting some songs figured out.

Ah, this is sort of
my jamming hill.

Used to be a tree
by the warehouse,

but a 7th-grader with a flute
muscled me out.

Uh... yeah.

[ Sighs ]

Are you okay?

I found this.

Oh, my gosh.

I never thought
I'd see this again.

You've seen this tape before?

Of course.

Come here.
You should, too.

He's following me now!

(Rose Quartz:) [ Laughing ] Maybe he'll
help you with your intro this time.

Dad?

Shh!
Keep watching.

Okay... now!

They call me...

Mr. Universe!

Get ready, baby,
'cause you're gonna have

the coolest dad
this side of the cosmos.

[ Strumming, vocalizing ]

This is...

Rose Quartz:
I press it now, right?

- Do it. Whoa!
- Greg?

[ Laughs ]
Can we edit this part?

[ Laughing ] No, no.
It's perfect.

Isn't it wonderful, Nora?

This world is full
of so many possibilities.

my video.

Each living thing has
an entirely unique experience.

The sights they see,
the lives they live

are so complicated
and... so simple.

This is just like the video
Mom made me.

Nora, we can't both exist.

But I won't be gone.

I'm going to become half of you.

And every moment you enjoy
being yourself,

that will be me,
loving being you.

No!
I don't understand.

Why is this the same
as the video you guys made me?

Who's Nora?

[ Chuckles ]

N-Nora is you.

I'm my mom and my sister?!

What kind of destiny is this?!

[ Laughs ] No, no.

We just had it down
to two names...

Steven if you were a boy,
and Nora if you were a girl.

So, then, would Nora have

the magical destiny
if I wasn't here?

Magical destiny?
I don't know about that.

But Mom did!

She was trying to tell me
something with my tape.

She keeps leaving me...
puzzle pieces.

Sooner or later, I'm going to
understand what I'm for!

Whoa!
Steven, it's okay.

Come here.
Come here.

Am I supposed to be...

D-did she want me
to be Nora?

Steven, she just wanted you
to be you.

When you have a kid, you have
no idea who they're gonna be.

Even Garnet couldn't predict it.

That's what was so exciting
to your mom,

that life is full
of so many possibilities,

and you would get
to explore them for yourself.

I mean, you could be Steven
or Nora or anyone else.

And you can always
change your name.

Hey, I did.

Because you're going to become
something extraordinary.

You're going to be
a human being.

[ Giggles ]
That's my favorite part.

A human being.

A human is an action.

I wonder who, how you'll be,

what you'll think,
what you'll want.

Oh, I'm so happy for everyone
who's going to know you.

[ Chuckles ]
I'm rambling.

If they look to you,
trust yourself.

Take care of them, Nora.

[ Static ]

So that's it.

I'm just...
supposed to be her kid.

Well... yeah.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

I think I can handle that.
