When Garnet said she sometimes looks to Pearl for strength I didn't really believe it....until this Episode. Seeing Pearl swing into battle, hearing her described as a terrifying renegade Pearl, and seeing how much importance Gem society places on staying in your role (A touch like the Dragon Age's Qunari when I think about it) really brought home the weight of that statement.
That said I am beginning to understand why the Gems left this world alone for so long. They live such long lives they and hold such a nasty grugde that waiting a few thousand years for your terrible revenge must not seem like much time at all.
Also....perhaps I'm just on a Star Wars kick but....the following modified code appears to apply to Pearl.
there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
