Steven: Good old Beach City,
but so much has changed lately.
I guess after all those abductions,
everything couldn't just return to normal.
With Sadie rocking out and Lars in space,
I can't even enjoy my regular snack at the Big Donut.
What am I gonna do for breakfast now?
[Groans]
[Grunts]
[Doorbell rings]
Wait a minute.
Big Donut is still open?
[Gasps]
Hello. Welcome to the Big Donut.
Garnet?
I have so many questions.
Just one moment.
You'll have to wait your turn.
[Soft music plays]
[Ka-ching!]
[Doorbell rings] Welcome to the Big Donut.
Tell me how I may serve you.
I never thought I'd see you working here.
- Have we fallen on hard times? - Oh, Steven.
This isn't about making ends meet.
This is about being random.
Are you serious?
Oh, yes.
I... don't understand.
[Music]
My future vision allows me
to see down the rivers of possibility,
granting me insight into the possible realities
our actions move us towards.
But that doesn't mean I can predict everything.
What I'm interested in
are these extremely unlikely realities,
so disconnected from the natural course of events
that I can't detect them.
When we act in unnatural ways,
we create new, unforeseen paths,
and arrive at these pools of improbability.
Oh, so you want to do stuff you usually don't
just to see what happens?
I didn't foresee you understanding that.
So, are we gonna clean up that coffee?
That's what we'd normally do.
Let's see what happens to the world
when we don't.
[Music]
[Coffee drips]
We are now dwelling
in a totally new pool of improbability.
My future vision is useless here.
I'm scared...
but intrigued.
That's the spirit!
Let's get even more intriguing!
I quit!
Come, Steven!
[Soft music plays]
- So, what now? - Hmm...
Instead of selling food, let's order some.
Like what?
Let's do... pizza.
Now you're talking my language!
Ordering now. [Phone ringing]
Fish Stew Pizza.
Uh, I want to order a pizza.
- 10 pizzas! - No, 20 pizzas!
Toppings? Um...
- Surprise me. - Now you're getting it!
I guess deliver it to the Temple.
No...
That's just what they'll be expecting.
Go weirder!
Deliver it to the ocean.
No, no, no! To Kansas!
No, to the moon!
I don't think that's within our delivery radius.
Remember. Improbable, not impossible.
Where's the last place
they'd expect to deliver a pizza?
Oh! Deliver it to...
Fish Stew Pizza.
So, like, this is for pick-up?
Now think, Steven,
about what you typically do when you obtain pizza.
Hmm...
Eat it?
In this timeline, we do the opposite of that.
Hey, you! Have a pizza!
[Grunts]
Hey, thanks!
[Music]
[Seagulls squawking]
One more pizza to deliver.
Hey, Vidalia's house is around here.
Let's bring her the last pie.
Now, that would be nice.
She must be upset that her son
was taken into space by those Homeworld gems.
You mean Onion?
He isn't in space.
He's right over there.
Sorry, I ... I must be thinking of a different timeline.
Okay...
Well, I'm sure Vidalia would still like some pizza
even if her kid is still on Earth.
Let's go swing by.
[Knock on door]
Mother Onion! Open up!
Vidalia: In the garage!
[Music]
Get excited for pizza!
We got pepper flakes,
and we're not afraid to use 'em!
Ahh! Wait a minute.
Steven?
What are you guys doing here?
Trying to scare me to death?
Oh, sorry.
We were just trying to bring you a pizza
in the most unlikely way possible.
Want a slice?
Sure, I could use a break.
I've been working on
this still life of a stepstool,
but I just don't feel inspired.
[Music]
Paint me like one of your Amethysts.
Paint me, too!
So you wanna be my muse, eh?
If it's not too much trouble.
I promise to be very inspiring.
Hmm...
Yeah, I think this is just what I needed.
Strike a pose!
It's struck.
Okay, don't move.
I need to capture your essence.
[Music]
[Groaning]
Garnet?
How long do you see me holding still?
Who knows?
The odds of us being here are so slim,
I can't even ... [Clanging in distance]
Uh, Garnet?
[Music]
Steven, look.
Ba-ba-b-b... baby kitten?
Is it possible that we chase that sweet cat?
It ... it's up to you, Steven.
Yes?
Don't ask me. Tell me.
Yes!
- Whoa! - Huh?
[Music]
Sorry, Vidalia!
Maybe next time!
But wait! Your essence!
[Music]
That's one fast kitten.
You think we can catch it?
If we don't lose sight of it.
[Music]
[Kittens meowing]
Steven: Aww...
There's more of them.
[Meowing continues]
Aww, and they have no food.
Aww, and they have no one to take care of them!
Garnet, we got to help these kittens.
Look at you! You're just babies.
Who knows what would've happened to them
if we didn't find them?
Everything's gonna be just fine.
We've got you.
[Meowing continues]
Here's the last one.
Or ... wait.
All right.
I think we got to stop being random
and figure out what we can do for these kittens.
Garnet, can you use your future vision?
What should we do next?
Garnet?
There's so many... cats.
So many possibilities.
It's too much?
Okay, can you focus on one?
What's this one's future?
I...
I don't know!
I don't know anything anymore!
[Thunder rumbling]
Are you okay?
Steven, lately, I've felt so lost.
Don't worry.
I remember the way back to town.
Oh, it's not just that.
It's you.
You've made so many decisions I didn't expect ...
giving yourself up to Homeworld,
coming back through Lion's mane.
The future that you created was so improbable
that I didn't see it coming at all,
and now I can't understand where this timeline is going.
We're on the outskirts of the possible,
following trickles to who knows where.
Everyone's looking to me for answers.
I can't stand it!
It's so hard for me to just exist
in the first place, Steven.
I want to love being alive.
I want to love that there are so many possibilities,
but I'm the one with this ability,
so I've got to be our guide.
I thought, if I could use my future vision
to jump into improbable futures,
I could get out ahead of the next big, unexpected change,
but I don't know what I'm doing here!
I can't tell what's probable anymore!
Anything could happen!
Anything could happen to these cats!
[Kittens meowing]
That's true,
but maybe instead of
thinking of all the things that could happen,
let's just pick the thing we want to happen
and do that.
So, what do you want to happen next?
I want to get these cats out of the rain.
[Music]
And then what?
Okay, sounds good.
Thank you so much.
Great news.
The shelter has a foster program.
They said they can pick up the cats tomorrow.
Thank goodness.
Whew. Glad to hear it!
How are you little guys holding up?
Anyone need to use the bathroom?
Make a phone call?
[Laughs]
You guys are gonna be just fine.
- I think I get it. - Hm?
Why my future vision has been so off.
I have to change the way I think about you.
What?
I've been looking into probable futures
where you act like a child.
I keep expecting you to run from responsibility
and to turn to me for help,
but you don't do that anymore.
Those futures aren't probable at all.
There's nothing wrong with this timeline or my future vision.
I just need to factor in that you've grown up.
[Laughs]
I guess I have,
but it's only because I'm trying to be more like you.
You always know what to do.
Not always.
Okay, most of the time.
I want to adopt this one.
There's something about her.
- Really? Is that a probable future? - It is now.
Besides, I've missed having someone cute and vulnerable
to take care of. I think I'll call her "Steven."
Isn't that gonna get confusing?
All right, then. Cat Steven.
Oh, my gosh! Wow!
O-Oh, okay. This is the best!
What, you're adopting one?
Too bad I couldn't get her in your portrait,
which I managed to finish, by the way.
[Gasps] Really?
What about our essence?
Well, I fudged it, but I think I got it.
[Both gasp]
[Waves crashing]
[Kitten purring]
[Music]
