Peridot- Hello?
Steven- Hi, Peridot!
Peridot- Steven, can you hear me?
Steven- I-I can hear y-
Peridot- CAN YOU HEAR ME?!
Steven- I can hear y-
(Peridot fiddles with her tablet to increase the volume, while she grumbles loudly in frustration.)
Peridot- How do I work this stupid thing? Ahh! Steven?
Steven- Hi, Peridot!
Peridot- Steven! *laughs* Behold my resourceful genius! I figured out how to get Wi-Fi in the barn.
(Peridot shows Steven an active lawnmower outside the barn, remodeled into a modem.)
Peridot- The connection is fast enough to stream "Camp Pining Hearts" in all 1,080 p's! It took me a while, but let me tell you how I did it. So, I had to go through-
(Peridot's transmission begins glitching out.)
Steven- Peridot?
Peridot- So, there I was, face to face with one of those big-
(The transmission continues to glitch, as the signal gets interrupted with squealing noises.)
Steven- Peridot, you're breaking up.
Peridot- ...running for my life with nothing but a-
(The transmission glitches again.)
Peridot- And then it bit me!-
(The transmission glitches once more.)
Peridot- And now the Wi-Fi works perfectly. What did you do today?
Steven- I learned how to do this.
(Steven does the "rubber pencil" trick for Peridot to see.)
Peridot- Whaaaat!? Lapis, get over here.
Lapis- Is that... Steven? *looks uneasy*
Peridot- Yes.
Lapis- Oh, no! Steven, what happened?!
Steven- Oh, you guys, it's fine. It's just a-
Lapis- How did he get trapped in there?! Why aren't you doing something?!
Peridot- Lapis, relax. It's just my communication pad.
(Lapis snatches Peridot's tablet.)
Lapis- Who did this to you?! Steven, I'll get you out of there! Where's your gem on this thing? I-I-
Steven- Lapis?
Lapis- I can't find it!
Peridot- What?
Lapis- He must be inside!
Steven- Wait-
Steven & Peridot- Lapis-
Peridot- It's just a screen! Sto-
(The transmission from Peridot's end suddenly cuts away.)
Steven- Oh geez!
(Steven crawls away out of his room, when Peridot's transmission returns.)
Peridot- Oh, thank the stars. I thought you were a goner.
Lapis- Step aside, Peridot. I have to free him.
Peridot- Lapis, no!
Lapis- *wielding a baseball bat* I'll save you Steven! I'll save you like you saved me!
Peridot- Calm down!
(Steven then comes running into the Barn.)
Steven- Wait! Stop! I'm fine!
Lapis- Steven! You're okay! *hugs Steven*
Lapis- Oh, sorry, Peridot.
Peridot- It's okay. Just take it easy with that bat.
(Just then, Lion's legs appear on the laptop's end of the video chat.)
Steven- Aww look. It's Lion. W-Wait, Lion. Lion, be careful! Lion, no!
(Lion knocks the laptop out of Steven's room, causing the connection to end.)
Steven- Noooo! *runs frantically out of the Barn* That was Connie's laptop! LION!
Lapis- He should really be more careful with other people's stuff.
Peridot- *unamused* Hmm...
(Peridot ends the call as well.)
