This is the last regular 11-minute episode of the series before the 44-minute finale, Change Your Mind, and it does a pretty good job of keeping the events of the previous episode under wraps - the audience is given no clues towards the fates of the Crystal Gems, or what the Diamonds have planned for them. Re-establishing the psychic plane that was previously seen in Reunited in order to reach Bismuth on Earth was a pretty good idea, but ultimately I felt as if there could have been a little more involvement from White Diamond, and less focus on the watermelons - as much as I enjoy watching their antics, it feels like severe mood whiplash in comparison to the episodes it's sandwiched between. Despite this, I enjoyed the song and the episode's resolution, and think it's still a decent watch.
