Lapis and Peridot discover Jesus.

Lapis has been a ward of the state since she was a young girl, and has finally caused too much trouble.

In an alternate end to Jailbreak, Jasper perishes aboard the ship, and Lapis is left without a purpose. Until she figures out what to do, she stays with Steven. Peridot is later found discarded and depressed, and both Gems' lives are taken on an emotional journey they never dreamed of as they help one other realize there are some things on this miserable planet worth fighting for.
