ThisSteven Universereview contains spoilers.
A plot about an old guy with xenophobic tendencies stuck in the past?
If you dont know what Im alluding to, read the news sometime.
He needed that deep connection and once it was gone, he was left all alone.
How could you not, its Steven!
Here, Steven makes no effort to conceal that the Gems are his family and he dearly loves them.
Its this love and commitment that actually puts Andy off the whole thing.
Its the conversation at dinner that really throws him for a loop.
He doesnt get all the wacky Gem things theyre talking about.
Steven has been spending a large chunk of the series learning about his Gem half.
Discovering what Rose was like, summoning his weapon, flying, etc.
Very rarely have we dipped into his human side and now were finally getting that.
Steven is half human so wanting to connect more to that could provide interesting stories down the road.
Hell, Steven didnt even know his families original last name!
Id love to meet some of Greg and Andys extended family, especially Aunt Deb and her partner.
Did anyone else catch that?Steven Universeonce again throwing in some quality LGBTQ content.
While this episode was human centered, the Gems still got a lot of fun moments.
Lapis and Peridots farm provided the best gags of the episode, with Peridot furious the produce couldnt talk.
I made you in my image and you will do as I say!
was easily my favorite.
I hope we get to see the Pumpkin Dog again.
As was the unifying theme of this episode, its not too late to change.
Some more closed minded people in our world could do with learning that lesson.
