Episode Title: "Sadie Killer"

Thanks for coming.

Hey, Sadie!

Hey, Steven.
What'll it be?

Sorry to be a pain,

but I got
kind of a long order.

I hope it's not
too much trouble.

What trouble?

I'm a professional
doughnut girl.

Okay...

I'll have one jelly doughnut
with powdered sugar on the side,

three chocolate frosted,
one frosted chocolate,

two chocolate-frosted
chocolate,



one dog-nut...
Medium well...

One coffee with milk and sugar,
hold the coffee.

I also have
several methods of payment

I'd like you to split
this order across evenly.

Uh,
what's all this for?

Band practice.

You're in a band?!

Kinda.

I started jamming with Jenny,
Buck, and Sour Cream!

Whoa!
That's so cool!

Aw, man!

I bet you guys
sound amazing!

We're still trying
to figure out our sound,

but it's been fun just
playing music with other people.

It's also nice
to have an outlet

that doesn't involve space
and gem stuff

and everything else
going on.

Um...

You doing okay?

Well, I worry about Lars
being in space,

and I hope he's safe
and all but...

Working all these shifts
by myself has been a huge drag.

I'm totally used to
doing his work,

but I'm used to at least
having him here to talk to.

Now I got to
do th myself, too.

Oh, come on, Sadie,
you missed a spot!

Oh, no, sorry.

Well, we'll all be practicing
at Sour Cream's place tonight.

Feel free to stop by
if you have time.

I'll try!

Hopefully I can finish
restocking napkins early.

We're always running out,
for some reason.

Hmm, weird.

Well,
see ya, Sadie!

Bye, Steven.

♪♪ Electronic beats playing...

What do ya call
that style?

- Beach core.
- Hey.

What's up,
Buck?

Guess who's got a gig
at Delmarva's number-two

music and seafood festival
this weekend?!

Chuji
and the Woo Woos?

Jack
and the Frosted Tips?

7-Force?

No, us!

What?!
What?! What?!

We don't even
have a name yet!

Or a set list!

Or even one single song
to p on a set list!

Guess we got
a lot of work to do.

What if we went for
a more of a rapa-billy style?

No, thanks.

Hold on, Steven.

You got a really cool sentiment
going on

that can resonate
with a wide audience.

I just feel like
this seafood festival

needs to hear something
challenging and provocative.

Check this out.

Hold on there,

I'm all for
being socially conscious

and waking people up
inside,

but people are gonna be at
this seafood fest to have fun!

Let's give them something
they can dance to!

Sour Cream,
give me a beat!

A what?

Oh, yeah!
Let's spice it up!

Cool!

Yeah!
And then how about some...

What the heck,
Sour Cream?!

What?

Can't let your audience
get too comfortable.

Maybe we should just call it
a night and try again tomorrow.

- Agreed.
- Oh, hey, guys!

Sorry I'm
so late.

Took longer to close up
than I thought it would.

Y'all still practicing?

Oh, sorry, Sadie,
we just wrapped up.

We were
getting nowhere.

Aw, shoot!

I really wanted
to hear you guys.

Well, let me know if
you have another band practice

when I'm not working.

- See ya, guys.
- Bye, Sadie!

- Later.
- Bye, Sadie. See ya, girl.

Hi, Sadie!

S'up? Hey, how's it goin'?
Hey, girl.

Whoa!
Hey, guys!

I just got home from work.

We know.
We followed you.

Sorry if
that's weird.

We know how busy
your schedule is,

so we decided
to bring the jam to you.

Aw, shucks, guys!
But...

My room
is such a mess right now.

Okay, ah, okay, just give me
a moment to tidy up!

Dang, Sadie!

You've got
so much space in here!

Yo, Sadie, do you have
any free outlets to plug into?

Oh, yeah,
check over by the TV.

Let's get
serious now.

The show
is this weekend!

Wait...

I can't really feel the music
in this cramped spot.

- This looks comfy.
- No, wait!

Aw, doo-doo.

I think
I broke your bed.

Whoa!

Scary movies!

Hey, Sadie,
you've got a dark side.

It's more of
a dork side.

Hey,
is that "The Lurch"?

You know this one?

Yeah!
It's a classic!

I can't believe
you have a copy!

Guys,
we have to watch this.

Brains!

I can't believe
you like this one.

Not everyone appreciates
Bulgarian horror.

Uh, guys, don't we need
to find our sound?

I kind of like
this sound.

Whoa! Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!

Sadie, that was awesome!
Yeah, girl, yeah!

That was so rad!

You're not Sadie Miller,
you're Sadie Killer.

This is it!
This is our sound!

Sadie, you should be
our frontman!

Really?!
Wow, I...

Uh, wait, no,
I can't.

Ugh, I've got to
work tomorrow.

Actually, you guys
should probably pack up.

I got to get some rest
before my shift.

Aw, doo-doo.

Hey.
What're you doing here?

I was just wondering
if I could get some advice.

We've been trying
to write

some more spooky songs
without you, but...

they sound so phony
coming from me.

Rawr,
I'm a bad, bad boy!

Yeesh.
I don't know.

I can't do it like you.
You got any tips?

Let's see.

First, lose your youth
to your boring job.

Then lose the only person
you've ever felt truly close to.

And then lose your mind
working all his shifts.

I don't think I can do all that
before the show tomorrow.

Are you sure
you can't come?

I'm the only employee
at the shop.

I can't just leave.

Singing is fun,
and being in the band

would be really fun...
Like the most fun ever.

But... But a lot of things
could be a lot of things.

This job is a drag,

but at last I know
it's a drag.

It's normal.

There's something nice
about that, you know?

Hanging out,
singing and stuff,

it feels
so not normal.

It's like...
You ever feel

so bad
that you feel good?

Like when you get so cold
that it burns.

Sometimes I just want
to scream my guts out.

Well,
no not my guts,

but whatever thing
is squirming around in my guts.

Wow!
That... That's poetry!

You're such a natural
at this.

All right,
I'll try my best.

How's this?

♪ Hate my job,
hate my job ♪

♪ Obligations ♪

♪ No vacations ♪

♪ Kinda sa-a-a-d ♪

Do I really
sound like that?

No, no, y-you sing it like
it's really a problem for you.

Don't worry, I'll get it,
I promise.

♪ Squirming in my guts ♪

♪ I got to sell doughnuts ♪

♪ Big doughnut ♪

I can't believe your car
can hold all these amps.

Hey, guys.

Hey,
it's Steven Universe.

Is that the scariest jacket
you could find?

Mm-hmm.

Hope it doesn't scare anyone
too much.

So,
no Sadie Killer, huh?

'Fraid not.
She's just...

too busy with work.

Aw, man!

This gig won't be the same
without her.

All right, Steven,
you're gonna have to

up your scary game
to fill Sadie's shoes.

Got it!

Rawr!

You can't help
being cute,

no more than I can help
being cool.

Let's go.

Okay.

Buckle up, y'all.

Hope the seafood
at this thing is good.

So where is
this place exactly?

I gave you
the directions.

Oh, that tiny
piece of paper?

Where'd I put it?

Did it fall
under the seat?

I don't see it
back here.

Yo,
what if this...

was all a dream?

This is not...

Hey!

Wait up!

Sadie! Sadie!

I can do it!
I can do the show!

I can come!

All right! Yeah! Oh,
thank goodness!

And I can come
to practice,

and I can come
to the next show

and the show
after that!

But, Sadie,
don't you have work?

Ha! I quit!
