This episode has significant worldbuilding and character development for Steven and the Crystal Gems. It teaches lessons about having faith in your friends, and also about accepting failure. Because of this, it has a distinctly "kiddy" feel. The gems are appropriately mysterious for an early episode, and we see glimpses into the past. This episode subtly raises questions about what gems are.

This episode is pure filler. It's one of the many "learn a lesson" episodes about children's relationships with their parents. This one focuses on Peedee Fryman, a boy Steven's age, and his father, with a healthy dose of mayhem induced by Steven trying to help. Dramatic irony. French fries.

This episode is the "origin" of Lion, but it's not really worth watching because of that because Lion literally just shows up one day, and he doesn't have much "character" other than being a big pink cat. Other episodes invite more interesting questions about Lion. It's another "save the day from a problem we caused" ep, but this time it's Amethyst's fault instead of Steven's.

This episode is particularly essential because it has the second best song in the show - "Giant Woman," which is performed by Steven. This episode introduces the concept of fusion. That's not a spoiler - we learn early on that Amethyst and Pearl can fuse into a "giant woman" called Opal. This ep delves into the relationship between foil characters Amethyst and Pearl, and explores how they can work together and harmonize despite their differences.

Most of the merit of this episode is in the worldbuilding, and the realization that nobody knows what the hell Steven is, or how he works.

"The cool kids" refers to Jenny Pizza, and Buck Dewey, and Sour Cream. "Sour Cream" is his actual first name, not (as I originally thought) a nickname Buck and Jenny gave him because he's white. We don't know his last name.
This episode is mostly about Lars (donut boy) failing to learn lessons about being nice, as usual. Plot relevance is that Steven learns stuff about his mom without the gems having to tell him.

You may notice that this ep has a lot of "focus characters." How can an episode focus on seven characters at once? Well, it doesn't. It's mostly about Steven and Nanefua (pizza grandmother) but the others play almost as much of a role so. It doesn't really focus on anyone. There's a lot of lesson-learning in this one but also some fun character development, and the Pizza family is generally cool (that's their real last name). The episode definitely doesn't contribute to the overall story, but it is a fun story in itself.

Watch if you like getting angry at cartoon characters.

Do you know "The Trouble with Tribbles," an episode of Star Trek? "Steven and the Stevens" is SU's "Trouble with Tribbles." It's a great episode, well-crafted, and it stands out from the formula of the show. Not really that much, because it's once again Steven attempting to solve a problem that he caused, but at least there are no gem monsters in this one. Also, it doesn't really contribute to the overall story which is why it's pink and not blue, but it's still worth watching.

Yes that is FIVE "drama" Pearls. This is easily the most dramatic episode in the show so far, and it only gets worse from here. This episode is difficult not to spoil so I'll try my best. Some really huge questions are raised about the Crystal Gems, gemkind, and the gem war that keeps getting referenced. It's "essential" because it answers a question you'll be asking yourself a lot down the road if you skip it.

This episode marks a significant turning point for the show - the point at which the viewer's knowledge of gemkind reaches critical mass, and our perspective on them changes. This episode begins setting the stage for the season finale, but it isn't as important as Mirror Gem. There's a lot of action and not a ton of character focus. Spoilers: None of the questions raised in Mirror Gem actually get answered here.

![Greg Greg](images/Greg.png)
![Amethyst Amethyst](images/Amethyst.png)
This is one of the most messed-up eps in the show. Greg and Amethyst get in a fight (an argument, not a real fight) and it's intense. Steven doesn't really learn a lesson in this one so much as get disillusioned. Watch if you like being unhappy.

An awfully silly title for a pretty dramatic episode. You think you're gonna get answers, but you don't really. Still, this one actually kind of fits into the plot.

Steven has to solve a problem but this time I really can't blame him for it happening in the first place. It's mostly him and Connie messing around.

This is more lesson-learning filler. We learn about Buck Dewey and his relationship with his dad, and how it compares to Steven's own relationship with his dad.

This episode is buildup to the finale, but they manage to squeeze lesson-learning in there. It's mostly about Greg feeling sad.

Why are they putting a filler episode so close to the season finale? Actually, in the original airing, Rose's Scabbard was followed immediately by The Message and then the finale episodes, which are the next two in the rotation. But, in the official numbering, this one comes next. It contains some build-up to the finale though.

This is a character-heavy episode that focuses on Steven coping with the events of the last episode. This episode is one of the really unique episodes in the show, because it shows the characters reacting almost realistically to the fantastical events that have occurred.
