Steven convinces the Gems to act as his mother.
Our Take
A solid sitcom-style episode that leans on awkward comedy rather than action, and mostly pulls it off. The dinner scene is genuinely funny in a cringey way, with Pearl’s stilted politeness stealing the show. It drags a bit in the middle and the resolution comes fast, but the emotional beat at the end lands. Worth a watch, just not essential.
