Pearl: Steven! special delivery!

We've got your dirt, dude!

Thanks, guys. Come on in.

All: Wow.

How much magic spit did it take to grow all these plants?

[ Laughs ] I grew these the old-fashioned way.

So this is what you've been doing

since you left Little Homeschool?Yeah.

Working at the school was great,

but I don't know if it's my calling.

Besides, watching the Off Colors graduate was so bittersweet.

Well, I think this is a wonderful way

to get in some much needed you time.

Me time? I-I'm hardly alone!

This little smarty is named Connie.

This onion's name is Onion.

These perennials always come back.

That one's Sadie, and the rest are her band --

Daisy Clover and the Shrubspects.

I named this one Lars.

[ Baby talk ] You're stuck in the ground, aren't you?

Not gonna zip right into space

and leave everyone behind, isn't that right?

Uh...Steven?

This may not be the healthiest approach to a new hobby.

I'm just...having a little fun. That's all.

But seriously, everything's going great.

In that case, we'll leave you to it.

Have fun with your plants, dude.

You should keep a close eye on your cactus.

Huh?

[ Sighs ]

What am I doing?

Is this really my thing now? Plants?

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl aren't even impressed.

I guess plants aren't as cool as liberating the galaxy.

Now, to give you a home.

Aah! Yowch!

[ Twinkle! ]

There you go.

That should do it.

[ Rumble! ]

Ooh! Sounds like lunch time.

I'll be back later to check on you.

[ Cactus grunting ]

[ Gasps ] Oh, my gosh!

Did I bring my cactus to life?!

[ Grunting continues ]

[ Camera shutter clicks ]

Steven: Hey, you guys, look what I made!

I thought you said you weren't using spit on your plants?

No. No, I'm not.

I guess I accidentally got some on this piece of cactus

I was trying to plant, though.

A likely story.

That cactus really bounced back.

He's a survivor, just like you.

Aw! And he's got a lumpy head like you.

Let's call him Cactus Steven.

Cactus Steven, huh?

Call me conceited, but I like it.

[ Cactus Steven grunting ]

Is he...okay?

Oh, yeah.

I think he just wants some sunlight.

I think I could use some, too.

[ Waves crashing ]

This beach, it never changes.

I mean, a lot has changed.

I'm trying to be cool about it, but it feels so weird.

Everyone's moving on, a-and I should be, too.

I gave up running the school,

but now I don't know what comes next.

You know?

It's probably better that I'm not running the school anymore.

Who am I to decide what's best for all those Gem students?

They're better off learning

from Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl.

I used to be helpful, but the Gems don't need me anymore.

[ Groans ] Why do I need to be needed?!

Steven, pull it together!

Aw, I'm so sorry to dump all of this on you.

[ Cactus Steven babbling ]

Aww!

Let's go home.

Good morning, Ronaldo!

Good morning, Nanefua!

And a special good morning --

[ Thud ][ Yelps ]

...to you, Cactus Steven.

Wow!

You've really sprouted up overnight!

[ Cactus Steven grunting ]

Good morning to you!

Huh?! D-Did you just speak?!

Wow.

You've really sprouted up overnight.

Aww, this is too much!

Oh, hello, Steven.

Hello, Cactus Steven.

Hey, Pearl. You have to see this!

Hey, Pearl!

Wow! Whoa. Whooooa.

That is so cute!

He's quite the talker.

And he said my name.

I think he's learning to speak by copying me.

Hey, Pearl!

[ Laughing ]

Why should anyone listen to me?

I'm trying to be cool about it, but I feel so weird.

Oh, my gosh!

Steven, your cactus seems really down on itself.

So sorry to dump this on you.

Ouch!

Steven, pull it together!

Steven, are you okay?

Why do I need to be needed?

Why do I need to be needed?!

What was that?!

Why'd you say that stuff, huh?

Why'd you say that stuff, huh?

Because I thought I could talk to you!

I can't tell Pearl how I feel,

'cause she'll blame herself and spiral out of control,

and I'll have to pick up the pieces.

And I don't want any more

high-and-mighty advice from Garnet.

I just want to know better for once.

A-And I'm so sick of Amethyst acting like she's so mature now!

She's so mature now!

[ Scoffs ] I know. It's like, get over yourself.

[ Gasps ] Please don't repeat any of that.

I thought I could talk to you!

Why'd you say all that stuff?

Whyyyy'd?!

Oh, you know why'd.

[ Sighs deeply ]

I can't let anybody find out about this.

Find out about what?

N-N-N-Nothing!

Are you okay, Steven?

Y-Yeah! Uh, uhp...

W-Why do you ask?

Um, well, it just seems like you've been having a hard time

since you left Homeschool, and, uh...

just figured I should check in.

Yeah, no, I'm -- I'm fine.

I've just got some... some stuff on my mind.

Nothing a little green-thumbing won't fix.

Okay. If you need any help,

just let us know, you know?

Yeah. I know.

Ugh, now the Gems are all worried about me.

[ Cactus Steven grunting ]

Hm?

[ Grunting continues ]

[ Screams ]

Yikes! Oh, no!

Cactus Steven, you look so messed up!

What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with you?

What's wrong is that you're making me look like a fool!

Fool!

I wish you wouldn't talk!

I wish you wouldn't talk!

[ Grunting ] Stop it!

Pearl: Steven! Are you coming to dinner?

Uh, yeah! I'm coming!

You need to get back to your home.

Wha--?! [ Scoffs ] This is my home!

The Gems don't need me anymore!

Those are my real private thoughts!

I can't let them hear this!

H-H-Hey, guys.

Uh, everything's great and totally normal,

but why don't you come back in, oh, say, let's say

a couple hours, for no reason whatsoever.

[ Laughing ] Okay? Bye!

[ Clang! ]

[ Groaning ]

[ Both shouting ]

Steven! We'll help you.

I can't tell Pearl how I feel, 'cause she'll blame herself.

What?!

I-I have no idea why he's saying that.

Just get out!

Why is it so durable?

The cactus is Earth's most resilient plant.

[ Cactus Steven grunts ]

[ Sobbing ] G-G-Garnet!

[ Thud ]

Give up! You can't win this fight.

I don't want any more

high-and-mighty advice from Garnet.

Uhh...

Sneak attack!

I'm so sick of Amethyst acting like she's so mature now.

Why is it being so weirdly specific?

[ All grunt ]

He's repeating me!

He's repeating everything I said to him.

[ Gasps ] He's copying me.

That's it!

Guys, stand back. I've got an idea!

Cactus Steven, get a load of this!

[ Clatter! ]

I'm sorry I mistreated you.

I know you didn't mean to hurt anyone.

You're just learning from the only role model you've got --

Me!

I should've given you more of the love

and kindness that you deserve.

So...who wants a hug?

Huh?!

[ Groaning ]

Huh?!

Wants a hug.

Look!
