It’s time again to reference @bismuth​’s list of Steven Universe VA sessions recorded on social media: https://imgur.com/a/3s5W3?third_party=1



Our first episode up is “Now We’re Only Falling Apart,” the plot summary of which is “Pearl tells Steven a story.” Now, we know from a Q&A with Susan Egan that we are getting an origins episode for Rose and Pearl. It would make sense that that would come right after ASPR, to convince Garnet and Amethyst of the story.

The voice session immediately after the one for ASPR (which had Susan, Deedee, Zach and Michaela) is a Susan & Deedee session (recorded on March 8th, 2017), so I’m pretty sure that’s for this episode. (Michaela also recorded that day and she’s also in the episode via the present-day stuff, so there’s that)

I’m thinking the scene of Garnet splitting up is actually *after* Pearl tells the story, because it doesn’t really make sense for Garnet to fall apart purely because Steven said something. Pearl has to explain how it happened, then when Garnet can’t deny it anymore, she falls apart.

Next in the bomb is What’s Your Problem?, the description of which is “Amethyst convinces Steven to take time for himself.” The session right after the NWOFA one is where Michaela apparently sang (recorded on March 15th, 2017), so I’m thinking this is the episode where we get our Amethyst song (the first song of two in this bomb, as reported).

Also, Shelby may have recorded on this day, meaning Peridot’s probably gonna get in on this (it doesn’t look like she’ll be there for the story in the previous episode tho).

I’m thinking this is the episode where we get the “Amethyst and Steven look for Ruby” scenes we saw in the promo and in the podcast leak. Those’ll probably be where we start the episode, before we get into the main plot.

I’m also thinking this episode will be where Bismuth returns. Steven tries to take time for himself, but he instead decides to unbubble Bismuth (since she *really* got screwed over by Rose, much less justifiably so after the RQ=PD reveal) and get her advice on how to handle the situation. The scene of the corrupted Biggs Jasper being unbubbled is probably from here, to show Bismuth what happened to her friends (since they neglected to tell her about corruption in her episode)

Since the “Nothing but Ruby!” clip and the “What if they never form Garnet again?!” scenes from the promo have a dusk backdrop with no land background visible, I’m inclined to believe this scene takes place on top of a cliff or hill (maybe the same one overlooking Beach City from Lion 4 and Lars & the Cool Kids) and is at the end of the episode, where, after the main plot concludes, they happen to find Ruby and she’s up there.



Next up we have The Question, which I think is where we’ll get the scenes of Sapphire in what appears to be Rose’s Fountain (frozen over from her ice powers). This’ll be where Steven and Pearl make the first big step in resolving the Ruby and Sapphire situation, and I think the episode will end on one of them, well, popping the question. We also have a leaker who said Sapphire sings in this episode, which was reliable because they wrote their thing before the promo image of Sapphire at the fountain came out, and they mentioned her going there (meaning this would be the second song in the bomb)

Also, I think either this or the next episode will be the Ruby Cowgirl scene (plus the Amethyst Horseman scene), either as Ruby going out doing her own thing or Ruby’s bachelorette party.

The session corresponding with this on is from March 29, 2017, and had Michaela, Grace, Deedee, and Zach (and possibly Shelby).

The next session just has Shelby and Michaela (recorded on April 15th, 2017) but I’m pretty sure this is Made of Honor, which I think we’re all sure is the Ruby and Sapphire Wedding Episode. We know from an overseas VA on Twitter that Peridot *is* at the wedding, so there’s that.

I’m half-expecting this to be where they have the shot of the big shadow over Beach City at dusk/sunrise (which isn’t from the next episode as far as we can tell), and I’m totally expecting it to NOT be any ship or big dramatic thing. Instead, I’m expecting the shadow to basically be a giant announcement balloon for Ruby and Sapphire’s wedding (paid for by Greg, of course) making sure the whole town attends.

The last episode in the bomb is Reunited, a 22-minute special. The corresponding session is from April 26th, 2017, and has Nanefua’s VA (who we know has a part from the promo) along with Deedee, Michaela, Shelby, and Jennifer. That’s right, Jennifer Paz is there, which means– guess what –Lapis is going to be in Reunited!

Since the promo shows everyone still in their wedding clothes, I think the episode will start off at the reception for Garnet’s wedding, and the attack from the Diamonds will happen shortly thereafter. Lapis’ return, I think, will be during the battle, and with her Max OPness she’ll basically be the one to stop the fight when it seems the CGs are losing (they are surrounded by water, after all).

I’m debating with myself how Reunited will end. I’m almost certain the Big Podcast Leak Clip won’t be from this episode (even tho it may seem like it, more on that in a bit), but I think either the Diamonds will take Steven back to Homeworld as Pink Diamond, or they’ll end up stuck on Earth. I’m leaning towards the former, since that’s more interesting.

I’m also thinking Aquamarine and Topaz are going to return in this episode (”Topaz Comes To Earth” on the Bingo card), and Aquamarine showing up is what tilts the odds in the Diamonds’ favor and lets them take Steven. However, I don’t think Steven will be alone; In a mirror to the end of season 4, I think Connie’s gonna be along for the ride, so they end up dealing with whatever happens together.

Of course, that’s not the end of the story. Reunited is not, in fact, the season finale like some have interpreted it as. Since Reunited takes up two episode slots, and we have 26 episodes a season, we have two episodes left in season 5, and two more episode titles after that.

The penultimate episode is probably going to be Legs From Here To Homeworld (next in line from the CN France leak). And wouldn’t you know it, the session right after Reunited is a Susan and Deedee session! (With Zack also, recorded on May 3, 2017) I don’t think this will be a full-on flashback episode, since I also think the title is a double meaning.

If Steven is being taken back to Homeworld, then he’s on “legs” of his journey from Earth to HW, and I’m thinking that during the trip he’ll have another Dream Flashback, to when Pink and Pearl were on the Leg Ship we saw in Lion 4 (the second meaning of the title)

The season finale, therefore, is “Familiar.” The voice session for this one has Zach, Michaela, Deedee, Grace and Erica (Sapphire/Paddy), as well as possibly Matthew Moy (Lars), recorded on May 10, 2017.

I’m going out on a limb here, but I think since Lars and the Off Colors are still slated to raid Yellow Diamond’s asteroid mines, and the Yellow Diamond Control Room from Message Received had asteroids behind it, I’m thinking Steven and Connie are going to be taken there by Yellow, and it’s going to be right as Lars is trying to steal the Floatanium, giving them a way to escape.

Deedee and Micheala are likely playing Yellow/Blue Pearl and a HW Amethyst, respectively.

Season 6 starts off with Together Alone (which ties nicely back to Stuck Together being the season 5 premiere), and since it’s a callback to Alone Together, it makes sense that the corresponding VA session has AJ Michalka.

Also in that session are the VAs for Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Peridot, Connie, and Lapis (though conspicously no Steven).

If my Connie & Steven in space prediction is true, then I think this will be the episode where they return to Earth/get rescued, since basically everyone is there.

Also: AJ mentioned in an interview once that we’d be getting a Stevonnie & Connie song, and I think that’ll be here.

The last episode title we have is Escapism. Assuming airing order and production order are the same, this episode is production code 158. Why do I bring this up? Because when the metadata was extracted from the Podcast Leak, the Big Spoiler Clip was indicated to be from that episode, meaning signs point to Escapism being when we see that clip.

Also, it’s fairly obvious that the song “Escapism,” sung by Rebecca Sugar last year on the SU Podcast, will be in this episode. It’s still up for debate regarding who sings it, but I am standing by my Stevonnie prediction from pre-Stranded.

The next VA picture is just of Deedee, so the trail ends there as far as solid predictions go, but VAs are still recording, so it looks like season 6 is well underway.
