Notes:

This episode proved that Lapis' story arc is far from over, despite the great strides she's taken there's still a great deal of sadism and self-loathing rage within her. She says she hates fusion, but she'll never be able to move forward until she can lay bare her soul to another gem, like Amethyst did in Smokey Quartz, and Volleyball did in Mega Pearl. Lapidot is inevitable, mark my words.
