  • A Single Pale Rose: When Steven decides to plant a rose garden, Pumpkin proves to be quite a nuisance. Can't Go Back: When Sadie is banned from the Big Donut for quitting, she and Steven plot a scheme to sneak in and get her favorite donut.
  • A single pale Rose: Flashback to where Greg takes Rose to a tanning salon 😂

    ... Now that I think of it, Pearls the only one of the original gems we haven't seen shapeshift... Like- EVER... I mean, Amethyst shapeshifts all the time, and Garnet shapeshifted into Steven a couple times, and Steven's done that "cat fingers" thing, so that definitely means Rose could do it. Pearl even refused to shapeshift with the whole "Steven tag" thing...
  • It would be pretty ironic,, because pearls are known to be small and helpless servants , while diamonds are virtually indestructible dictators
  • @fanofpink
    I hope we get answers I’m tired of being yanked around!!!!
  • @starrcasm8488
    What if the rubies are colorblind? Think about it. In the episode where Amethyst shape shifts into Jasper, they can't tell the difference until they catch her in her actual form. This could also mean that Eyeball wouldn't see a difference in color between Rose and Pearl shapshifting into Rose. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's all a possibility.
  • @pocketsoup8338
    That still doesnt explain why Pearl covers her mouth in that unnatural way! Also, I always wondered why after thousands of years of Pearl adoring Rose how it seems like Rose is oblivious to it. Maybe Rose doesnt like that she shattered Pink or something? Maybe Rose really HAS never shattered a gem, which is why she would bubble Bismuth, and she couldnt stand that Pearl did it (forgotten, but not forgiven).

    Final twist: Steven ends up going back in time and accidentally shattering Pink Diamond.
  • @GIRGHGH
    And remember that one Ruby thought Steven's gem was too red...
  • @AzraSF
    What if Amethyst shapeshifting into Rose all those episodes back was some sort of foreshadowing for this? Besides, Pearl hasn't shapeshifted yet, I think it was because she didn't like it? Can't remember, but if it is it could be due to guilt. Sorry if you said all of this in your theory video, I have yet to watch it, I'll go and take a look at it right away, though! ^-^

    Pearl showed rose "how to be strong, in the real way" by doing pink in
  • -Rose shattered pink diamond: doesn't make sense from a narrative standpoint because then what would be the point of this whole "murder mystery" if we were told the truth from the beginning -yellow shattered pink diamond: way too obvious and we already know yellow cares about her she even cried just thinking about her there's no way she did it -white shattered pink diamond: no way they wouldn't introduce a character at the last minute with almost no development at all and then say she was the culprit of this mystery seems to much like an ex machina situation and there's little to no evedince for it -blue shattered pink diamond: no -pink shattered herself: I think suicide may be a bit too dark of a theme to introduce to show... -pink diamond is still alive: that would ruin everything about the mystery that has been established so far and would make so many episodes seemingly pointless if she was alive the whole time -pink pearl shattered pink diamond: same reason white diamond wouldn't work -Rose is pink diamond: no -pearl shattered pink diamond: as much as I hate to say it, this one seems to make the most sense as far as the narrative goes it could there's some good evidence and some really interesting things they could do with pearls character so for now I'm going to stick with this theory buuuuut then again the new episodes could also debunk the theory so we'll wait and see I guess
  • Still sticking with the Rose = PD theory. Rose was an alternate persona for PD, she had her Pearl (our Pearl) eventually "shatter" her in front of folks so that when she reformed later, as Rose, she could continue the struggle.
  • @xaiomira9895
    I have an idea. Bismith makes rose her first sword, one that is capable of shattering a gem. Rose tells her to distroy it and make a non-shatter one. Bismith puts it aside (either to keep or to distroy later) and starts working on a new sword. Pearl then steals the sword, turns into rose and shatters pink diamond. But if this is true, why would pearl frame rose, the gem she loved so dearly?
