Yeah, that's also weird when you think about it. It was almost implied in Maximum Capacity that Greg and Amethyst had an affair sometime after Steven was born. Probably not, but man if it was confirmed that they did my mind would be blown.

Affair I guess is a strong word, since Rose is gone, but yeah, I think SOMETHING happened. Like maybe even Amethyst wanted it to be romantic and he might not have, but I dunno. She did seem to appreciate the dancing in the We Need To Talk. Maybe envied receiving the kind of attention Rose got, rather than Pearl envying Greg's. There's so much we don't know, though, so it's hard to say what happened, just she had a very peculiar reaction, Amethyst that is, when Greg was looking at the broken picture of Rose, along with her "I bet you'd stay for her!" when she wanted Greg to not go, in Maximum Capacity.

Well when she started to shapeshift into Rose Greg did cry out for her to "Not do this again"

They've really been knocking these episodes out of the park this week. I knew we'd have more flashback episodes with Greg, and it's nice to have one this soon. Marty didn't appear, but I still suspect he'll be back in another flashback or make a surprise appearance in the present. The parts with Greg and Pearl dropping the mic were great. Finally, we get to hear Rose sing! And boy what a voice Susan Egan has! The last part where Greg told Connie she could always come to him for advice was the most heartwarming. Carry a torch for thousands of years, and you're going to get bitter when someone else catches the object of your affection's eye. That said, by the end of the episode, she at least seemed to get that despite the shit she said earlier, that this wasn't a phase or a novelty to Rose, and this was something pretty different from what any of them had seen before. I do notice she gets along well enough with Greg nowadays, working on the van with him, and calling him Greg, not Mr. Universe like she did in the flashbacks, so for what it's worth, I think things are at least more civil.
What's weird is I think there have been some signs of Greg being attracted to Pearl now.
Everyone wants a piece of The Bird Mom. I caught up on the last two episodes, and hoo damn do I want bad things to happen to Peridot.

Also,just wanna comment how both episodes Rose always had more of a "low " view of humans.The way she spoke always made it sound like she was talking about puppies.

She just didn't understand, she understood enough that she wanted to protect them I think but she really understood human life when she began to love like Greg.
"Love Like You" is all the more appropriate

So "Chille Tim". Predictions?? Final Steven Bomb of the week, so here is mine
The episode has a very simple and harmless synopsis, Steven and the Gems have a Slumber Party to blow off steam. This has all the makings of a setup for something really huge...
What tips that off is in ever episode the promo art showed faces of the most prominent figures in that episode. "Sworn to the Sword" had Connie, "Rising Tides/Crashign Skies" had Ronaldo, "Keeping it Together" had Garnet, and "We need to talk" had Greg. This episode? A big fat Question Mark.
This means they're either teasing huge who this episode will be about, or we may, in fact, be getting a new character
Strap in people, aint no way Steven Bomb aint goin out with a BANG.

Pearl's dream was the highlight of the week, IMO.

So after this week I think we need to see a Pearl - Greg episode, because obviously there are/were alot of issues there.

Hello all,
Mozenrath recently turned me on to the show. And I'm now fully caught up. It's a wonderful show and I look toward to discussing it with you.
Now, is there any talk of a Li'l Butler spin-off?

That was a definite mood whiplash episode, especially in the "sitcom" scene.

I hope there's also a new episode next week. Today's episode was clearly foreshadowing Jasper breaking out. I knew they wouldn't introduce her then permanently write her off.
