Peridot is staring out of the hole in the side of the barn, recording a log in her tape recorder. Steven and Turquoise who seemed to be in a new outfit where sitting on the truck
(Turquoise new outfit)
"Log date 7 15 2..." Peridot says calmly."I can't believe I just did that! I disobeyed my orders and went against Yellow Diamond's wishes! I'm a traitorous clod! I never want to think about what I've done again!" She says hysterically as she rewinds her tape recorder
"I'm a traitorous CLOD!" The recorder says
Peridot snickers delightedly. "Yehahaha! And I called Yellow Diamond a clod RIGHT TO HER FACE!" Suddenly devastated, Peridot drops to her knees, while Steven and Turquoise watch
Peridot whimpering and sweating profusely, "I called Yellow Diamond a clod... right to her face!"
"Uh, Peridot? Are you gonna be okay?" Steven asks
I'm a traitorous CLOD!" rewinds* "-traitorous CLOD!" rewinds
Peridot turns to Steven and Turquoise with a deranged smile. "No!"
"I believe she is being what you humans call 'coo coo,' " Turquoise says, twirling his finger beside his head to Steven with concern towards Peridot
Peridot clings onto Turquoise. "You don't understand! I'm protecting a planet I was once trying to destroy! I used to follow every order. Every rule. Now I'm a traitor. A rebel!" Her eyes turn into stars."A Crystal Gemmmmmmm!" Peridot chuckles
Peridot rewinds her tape recorder repeatedly."-CLOD!" "-CLOD!" "-CLOD!"
"Well... That tape recorder seems to be helping." Steven says
"No, it's not! It's a chronicle of my descent into madness!" Peridot yells
Peridot throws away her tape recorder, which hits Garnet in the face, and she catches it. Garnet then approaches Peridot with her tape recorder.
"You dropped this." Garnet says bluntly
Peridot crawls on the floor and hides behind Turquoise's legs. "Get it away from me. Give it to Steven; return madness to its source!" She curls up
Garnet shrugs and hands the tape recorder to Steven
"Are you sure you don't want it?" Steven asks
Peridot is holding her face. "Whatever, it's yours now. Yours, not mine, not mine! Yours! Yours!"
Turquoise crouches down and puts his hand on Peridot's shoulder" Let's go and try find something to calm you down, yeah" Turquoise picks peridot up, Peridot surprisingly doesn't squirm and clings to Turquoise's shoulders her legs wrapped around his waist resting her head on his shoulder
"Garnet, can you help me with ahem... this," Turquoise asks Garnet as Turquoise warps his arm around Peridot's back and one under her butt to stop her from slipping
