You: What is that?

Pearl: This is a communicator y/n. Peridot could use this to contact yellow diamond and put us all in danger.

Amethyst: Man, after everything we've gone through, they're still out to get us! Ohh, I'm takin' back all my cool nicknames for her! So long, Peri and P-dot, hello... Ahhh, I'm too mad! I'll think of something later.

Car horn honking is then heard from inside the barn.

Inside the barn*

Peridot is seen punching the horn of the car and uelling aggressively.

Peridot: (punching the horn*) GRRAAHH!! How do you make this old broken vehicle work?!?! (grunts angrily*) Iron, what do we do now?!

Iron: Don't worry.

Iron activates her force push and burst a hole on the car. Peridot and Iron now gets off the broken car.

Peridot: Good job Iron! Now, let's go retrieve the communicator!

Iron:...I don't want to go back homeworld anymore peridot.

Peridot: What are you saying?! If we report to yellow diamond about our discoveries, we'll be known! Don't you want your rank to be higher! Heck, if we're lucky they'll give us a pearl! Don't you want that Iron?!!!

Iron: I don't care about it anymore peridot! All of those things are meaningless to me now!

Peridot: Why then?! Why then you assigned me to grab the communicator in the first place?!

Iron: That's when before I realized that it's flawed!

Peridot: What is it?! Tell me!!

Iron: The horrible caste system!! (punches the ground*)

Iron:...(starts to cry*) Its the caste system peridot... It's the caste system. That caste system where they acknowledged you for what you are made of instead the things you do. Tell me peridot! How sure are you if you are gonna report them huh? Do you clearly think they will listen to you?

Peridot: Well yeah... Of course my diamond would!

Iron: No!! Your opinion doesn't matter to them! If a high ranking gem would report the same thing you have they will accept it! But if a pointless little gem like you would report they wouldn't believe you heck they will even shatter you for giving a stupid report!

Iron stands up.

Iron: Listen to me peridot, what I'm trying to say. Is that, the caste system of homeworld is unfair to us lower gems. I would rather fight for an equality that has been established by rebels than an unfair authority.

Peridot: Who do you think you are ti lecture me you clod?!!

Iron: I'm an era 1 gem. I have seen and realized things that you haven't. So peridot...(looks at Peridot with cold eyes*) Will you join me or not?

Peridot: I-I-I-uh, hehehe. What about-

Peridot falls down to the ground and trying to reach something. She couldn't move her eyes away at iron and luckily grabs an empty metal can.

Peridot: This!!!

Peridot throws the metal can at Iron's face. And rus as soon as possible while cackling. She removes a blanket of a giant figure and it was non other than peridot's robot. She quickly hop on and turn it on.

Outside of the barn*

Steven: I see one of them knows what a horn is now. (covers his hood over his ears*)
