Yeah, but: just 3 pizza chutes. Our Brave Heroes didn't seem to have any.

Tandem jumping: No one jumps alone their first time, and the pizza kings are all expert skydivers. Though the weight on the one carrying Almond/Cucumber is going to make the landing a bit painful.

Of course, Commander doesn't need one because JUSTICE LIIIIIIIVES!

The ground below the pizza-parachuters has flower patterns on it... I'm guessing this is their entryway to the flower kingdom??

Likely, though that probably means no more Princess Sunshine for a while. On the other hand, it probably means more Saturday, so bring it on!

Ya, it might be that Glitchmaster wants the heroes to succeed in the traditional sense. So this would be a Disaster Master that is aware of the cycle and for some reason wants it to continue?

It's been going on for hundreds of iterations I don't think any of the Disaster Masters are unaware of the cycle.

Has it been made explicit that the show Peridot watches is Punisher Pumice? I've always assumed it was, and I'm guessing if they realize they both watch the same show, Peridot is going to literally catch fire. Nerd Status: Crushed.

Piano mentioned a Princess Ametrine earlier, and ametrine looks like this.



So, that could be the Princess of the Crystal Kingdom?

I think it's pretty strongly implied, given the hearts that came off of her when she mentioned the girl who got on stage, and that she's quite clearly in love with the Crystal Kingdom princess.

That, and the love letter she was sending her in a previous scene.
I've really come to like Piano, now we've had a chance to see what she's like outside of the damsel-in-distress role.

I was about to post this! On the one hand it's the raddest drawing, on the other hand it only serves as a reminder that I can't order Cucumber Dressed from the CQ store.

Speaking of Cosmo and bets, life_source won the pool on how Cosmo was gonna try to kill the party. Prescient! And close enough.
