At the Beach Citywalk, Steven and Lapis, along with Pink Pearl, Soren, and Amethyst ran towards the counter of Beach Citywalk Fries where the owner, Mr. Fryman was at, about to put up the closed sign before spotting the 5. "Hey, Fryman, give me the bits, please!"

"Steven! We're closed." Fryman told them, flipping the sign from, Open, to Closed, as this made Steven become very disappointed. "Aww, what?" Feeling bad for him the three aside him and Lapis exchanged looks to each other before nodding as Amethyst hits the counter. "Give 'em the bits!"

She said as the others began to follow, chanting while hitting the counter. "The BITS! The BITS! The BITS!" While continuing to bang on the counter Mr. Fryman stopped them. "Okay, okay! Take it easy on the counter, will ya?" He asked as he goes to cook or get the fry bits.

"Yes!"

The five said before high-fiving each other as Fryman came back and hands Steven a bag of fry bits. "I can give you actual fries if you want." He told them. "Just the bits, please," Steven asked before taking the bag. "Thanks." He thanked Fryman before walking away while giving his Gf and the three a handful of bits.

"Ah, sunset, my favorite time of day. When the sun goes down, and the second sun gets bigger and bigger in the sky." He said causing Amethyst to burst out laughing with Soren telling him. "Yeah, that big hot second su-" He stops and gasps, noticing that isn't a 2nd sun. "What's the matter Sore?"

Amethyst asked before he pointed up making her and Pink look up and gasp to in shock. "Oh no, what is that doing here?" Pink Pearl said as Lapis and Steven noticed too. "What is it?" Lapis picks him up and runs with Soren, Amethyst, Pink Pearl back to the Beach House while Steven drops his bits. "Ah, my bits!"

Meanwhile

"This is bad," Pearl said as she along with Onyx, Yellow Pearl took turns looking through the telescope as Anaya, Violet, Blue looked worried at them. "Look at the size of it, I had no idea these things were so big!" Onyx said to them after he finished peering through the telescope.

They then heard running and looked before seeing the four running towards them with Lapis carrying Steven. "Guys!" Steven said as Pearl tells them. "We saw. Some of us are trying to protect humanity. Where were you?" Pearl angrily asked Soren, Amethyst, Pink Pearl as Amethyst answered.

"Eating fry bits." Pearl sighs as Steven asks. "Oh, can I see?" He then peers through the telescope. "Woah. It's a giant eyeball! Awesome!" Pearl tells them. "NOT awesome! It's a Red Eye!" Steven gasps. "A Red Eye?! It's going to infect us all!" Yellow Pearl sighed. "That's pink eye, Steven."

Pearl then explained. "It's going to crash into Beach City and crush us, along with a bunch of oblivious, innocent people! We have to stop it." Now worried, Steven asks. "What are we going to do?" Thinking for a moment Onyx soon tells them. "The only thing powerful enough to destroy it is a Light Cannon that belonged to Rose Quartz."

"My Mom?" Steven asked curiously as Amethyst groans. "If she were here, this would be so easy." She told them as Pearl tells him. "We know, but she's not, plus the cannon's missing. We'll have to find another solution." Steven began to think for a moment before realizing. "Wait, if it belonged to my mom, I bet my Dad knows where it is. He can help us save the day!"

Everyone stood in silence for a moment before Pearl told him. "Greg is...Nice, Steven, but-" Amethyst then cut her off. "Your dad is kind of a mess, Steven." After telling him Pearl looked angrily at her.

"AMETHYST!"

She looked at Pearl. "I'm just sayin', even if she did leave it with him, he probably broke it, or lost it, or dropped it in the ocean by now." Amethyst finished with Soren agreeing as Pink nodded. "It could be true," Steven then tells them. "No way, I'm sure he's just keeping it somewhere safe. I'll go ask him."

"We can handle this, Steven." Pink Pearl told him as Soren asked. "Ready? Amethyst?" She nods to him as he picks her up and tosses her at the Red Eye, to no effect, making Amethyst fall into the ocean after bouncing off the Red Eyes eye. "Ugh, Lapis and I are gonna go." Pearl watched them leave as she said smiling. "Okay, good luck."

After saying that Anaya then told Pearl as she, Blue and Violet Pearl follow the two. "Will go with them just in case they need help." After that they left following Steven and Lapis to, It's a Wash.

Later

Once there Steven bangs on van door shouting. "Dad, it's me! Dad, are you in there? Wake up! We have to save...The-WORLD!" He said while climbing on the van. "Dad!" He then trips and sets off the car alarm, making him smile as his Dad, Greg bursts out from the back of the Van holding a waffle iron, failing to notice the others.

"Who's there? I have a waffle iron!" He shouts as his Son stands on top of the van. "Dad, it's me!" He looks up, peering as he asked. "Steven?" His Son nods and jumps down before hugging him. "I almost waffled your face! What are you doing up so late?" He asked looking at him as he noticed the 4 as well before Steven looks up at him. "What do you mean? The sun just went down an hour ago."

Noticing his mistake Greg began to blush a bit. "Oh, heh. It was a...Slow day at the car wash. Anyway, what's up? Just needed to see your old man, pal around, learn some lessons about life?" Steven tells him. "No! We need the light cannon that belonged to Mom, to blow up that Eyeball!" He said, pointing to the Red Eye as Greg asked.

"Eyeball?" Lapis then points. "That!" Greg looks up and sees the Red Eye as Amethyst is launched, flying towards it again, yelling before bouncing off of it again before falling back into the ocean the 2nd time. "Wait, is that a magical thing? The Gems told me not to get involved with magic stuff. It...It could be dangerous or interfere with what's left of my hair."

Greg told them as he rubs what's left of his hair. "But they need Mom's cannon. You've gotta know where it is, like a cave dungeon or a cloud fortress, or in a clam at the bottom of the ocean!" Steven told his Dad before his Dad told him. "Well, I don't know about all that. But I have an idea where it might be."

Minutes later

"A magical storage unit!"

Steven said as he rushes to the U-Stor with Lapis, his Dad and the other 3 walking to him. "Ha, not exactly. But some would say there's magic inside." Greg told his Son with a wink as Steven looks at him cluelessly. "It's just a shed I use to keep things that don't fit in the van. If it's anywhere, it'll be in here." He told his Son and the others as they stood in front of his Storage Unit, which he opens, revealing the shed's filled to the brim with boxes and clutter.

"If we're going in there, I'm gonna need some gear," Steven said as he grabs a sock along with a flashlight and an electric cord as he ties the flashlight to his head with the sock and wraps the electric cord around his waist as he told Lapis, Anaya, Blue, and Violet. "Here we go."

While they head in Greg tells them. "Good luck!" While the 5 crawl into the shed they began to look around as Steven said. "Woah, cool! It's like a dad museum." They then go deeper before Anaya spots something shaped like a cannon. "There it is!" She then pulls it down only to see it's just a bag of golf clubs.

"Dad, do you golf?" Greg answers his Son. "Eh, I'd like to think of myself as someone who would golf...Eventually." He told them before they continued to search for the Laser Light Cannon, as while looking, Lapis notices a cannon shaped object. "Hmm, yes!" She pulls it out before seeing what it really is. "A drum?"

She then puts it down as they continue searching. "No, no," Violet said before hearing a gasp from Steven who said. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Is this-" He stops as he shoots a T-Shirt out of it and notices it was a T-shirt Cannon as Anaya picks up and reads the shirt.

"Buy T-shirt Cannons?"

Steven soon notices a box full of CDs and heads over to it as he began to look through all of them. "Hey, there's a bunch of copies of your old CD," Steven told his Dad as he gets one of the CDs out and stores it in his pocket, saving it for later as Greg tells him, holding the cord his Son is tied to. "Huh. Oh, man, I couldn't give those things away. You know, before I ran the car wash, when I was a one-man band, I traveled the whole country." Steven chuckles. "I know, Dad." He said.

"When I came to play a concert here in Beach City, no one showed up except—" Steven cuts him off. "An ALLIGATOR!" Greg laughed a bit before telling him and the others inside. "No, it was your Mother." Steven began to laugh while he, Lapis, Anaya, Blue, and Violet go deeper into the Storage. "Hahaha, I know."

Greg then tells them. "And we were always together after that. Until she gave up her physical form to bring you into the world. I don't know what a magic lady like her ever saw in a plain old dope like me." As he told them the 5 suddenly heard glass shatter as Lapis soon noticed that she had accidentally broken a photo frame of Greg and Rose. "Uh, I think I broke a photo of you and her."

"Hey, it's okay guys. If every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn't have hot dogs." Soon after saying that a glow is then seen deep inside the unit bringing attention to the 5 as they got closer and see what it is as Steven gasped. "The Light Cannon!" While they go to get the Laser Light Cannon Greg looked up at the Red Eye looking a bit disturbed by its glare. "Oh boy, that thing's giving me the willies."

He said while rubbing his stomach. "Dad, we found it!" He looks over at the entrance of his Storage Unit. "Really?" He asked while Steven Lapis and the 3 tied the cord around the Cannon as Steven asked. "Get the van!" Hearing this Greg goes and helps, using his Van to pull the Laser Light Cannon out as his Son told him. "This thing could save the city, we've gotta get it to the beach!"

"How? It's too big for the van." Soon Anaya pulls out a wagon rolls from the unit bringing it near the Cannon while Blue and Violet Pearl try to get the Laser Light Cannon in. "Easy does it," Greg told them as they put the Cannon on the wagon, breaking the floor of the wagon.

Seconds Later

Inside the Van, Steven, Lapis along with the others including Greg are driving to the beach to give the Gems the Laser Light Cannon. "Is it gonna be okay?" Steven asked curiously about the Cannon looking back at it along with the others as Greg shrugs. "If every pork chop were perfect—"

"We wouldn't have hot dogs!"

Steven said after his Dad said the first part, as they continue they begin to notice the Red Eye becoming larger each second it gets closer to Beach City. "That thing's getting huge, it's freaking me out," Anaya asked worriedly. "Can't the van go any faster?" Greg tells her and the others. "This is faster."

"Don't worry. Come on, let's put on your CD." Steven said as his Dad begins to look a bit embarrassed. "What? Really? Come on, you've heard it." He told him, which his Son laughed from. "You come on." He said while he inserts the disc which began to play Greg's song, Let Me Drive My Van Into Your Heart, which Steven and Lapis sing along with for the moment. "Let Me Drive My Van Into Your Heart...Let me drive my van into your heart!"

As the song continues to play the Van begins to close in towards the Beach while Sadie walks by in her jacket while she and Lars who's standing at the Big Donut look at the Red Eye along with Mr. Smiley, while at the Beach Amethyst washes up back on shore in front of Soren, Pink Pearl along with Pearl and Onyx telling them.

"Throw me again, I think I'm cracking it." They then noticed the Van. "Is that...?" Steven comes out along with the others as he and Lapis waved. "Hey, guys!" Steven greeted them as Pearl gasps in surprised. "He really had it!" She said to her husband as Amethyst jumps in between Soren and Pink Pearl pulling them close as she shouts. "We're SAVED!"

They're then interrupted by the Red Eye's gravity as it begins to pull everything towards it, causing rumbling and destruction which they noticed, looking over at Beach Citywalk and saw Mr. Fryman observing the destruction affecting his restaurant Beach Citywalk Fries as he shouts. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, easy!" He then jumps backs as the letter A of his sign rips off of the building.

Meanwhile

Back at the Farm as they were setting things up, Jewel and Peridot were there, seeing the Red Eye from the distance, feeling a bit worried and concerned on what's going on at the Beach City Peridot looked over at Jewel. "Should we go and help them?" She asked as Jewel looked, giving a smile before telling her. "No. I'm sure they got this." They then continued to watch to see what'll happen.

Meanwhile

"We have to use it now."

Pearl told the Gems as Lapis told her. "We don't know how it works, you guys said it was Rose's!" After telling them Steven then looked at his Father. "Dad, how do we use it?" Greg shrugs to his Son. "Steven, this is serious," Pearl told him before she suddenly realizes. "The Gem. You have her Gem."

"That's it!" Amethyst said as she began to attempt starting the Cannon by lifting Steven before rubbing him against the Cannon, getting help from the 2 along with Blue, Violet, and Anaya. "Ah, come on!" Amethyst groaned before Pearl tells them. "Stop it, it's no use." Amethyst then tells them before jumping into Soren's arm. "Fine, forget it. Throw me again."

Pearl tells her. "That's not going to work." The gravitational pull strengthens and pulls Greg's van along with the Laser Light Cannon, which they took notice as he unhooks the cord from Cannon. "I got this. Ugh!" He said trying to pull his Van back. "Wait, nope, maybe I don't!" He said while trying to stop the van as his Son talks to the Cannon.

"Please work, unlock, activate, go, please! Everyone's counting on you, you can't just be useless! I know you can help." After telling it, nothing happened as his Dad told him. "It's okay, Steven. We'll figure out something else, something even better." Steven agrees. "R-r-r-right, if every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn't have hot dogs."

After telling him, he then looked over at Lapis who looked worried at him as she goes to him. "Steven...In case this is our final time together...I just want to let you know that you're the best Boyfriend a Gem like me could ever have." She told him with a blush appearing on her face, which made Steven smile.

"Aw, thank you Lapis."

After telling her she then placed her hands on his shoulders and soon pulled him into a kiss, causing him to place his hands onto her sides pulling themselves closer, closing their eyes through their passionate kiss, suddenly a large pink glow began to brighten nearby them, causing their eyes to open immediately and their kiss to cease before looking and gasping in shock, seeing that the light was coming from the Laser Light Cannon as it begins to activate.

"It's working!" Pearl said before the cannon unlocks and falls, making them all gasp before Steven along with Lapis attempt to lift it before the rest of the Gems there soon help. "Steven!" Anaya, Blue, and Violet told him. "This is it!" Soren, Pink Pearl, Amethyst added in. "BRACE YOURSELVES!"

Pearl and Onyx shout as the Laser Light Cannon shoots a rose shaped blast which transformed into Steven's Mom which directly hits and begins cracking up the Red Eye, making them all look in amazement as the Red Eye begins to break apart before exploding to bits, causing the destroyed parts of it to crash into the city boardwalk.

"Steven, you just saved most of Beach City!"

Soren told him as he looked back, seeing Fryman in the middle of the rubble unharmed. "Sorry about that!" Steven shouted to him as Mr. Fryman asked. "What?" Pearl became curious, looking at the Laser Light Cannon. "How did you get it to work?" She asked Steven who looked up at Lapis who looked at him too before he said with a smile. "Actually, Lapis and I got it to work. And that was by doing the one thing we like doing together."

"Kissing?" Soren asked curiously before Pearl shook her head no. "Love." She said as she looked at Steven and Lapis' hands which were holding each other before they all noticed Greg tearing up. "Rose..." He said before the tide suddenly comes in and washes the van towards the beach but is still surrounded by water, making the Gems laugh. "My van!"

Greg shouts before Steven tells him. "It's okay, Dad, if every pork chop were perfect-" His Dad shouts. "I LIVE in there!" He then rushes towards van with Steven and Lapis following him. "Wait up!" Steven shouted as they go towards the van as Greg said while trying to get his van back to the Beach.

"Oh geez, wait, wait, wait!"

While they were doing that Blue Pearl and Violet Pearl noticed Anaya wasn't with them, puzzling them before they noticed her sitting on a rock near the Temple as they began to go over to her, seeing her hold a book as she was writing something in it. "What are you doing Anaya?" Violet asked curiously as she looked at them both with a smile.

"Oh, I'm just writing in my latest book on how we can use the Laser Light Cannon." She told them while showing the drawing of it with sentences around it on what they must do to activate it as she asked with a smile. "Want to help?" The two Pearls looked at one another before smiling too. "Sure," Blue said as they both head over and sit with Anaya, beginning to help her with the book too.
