There's so much to think about in this four parter.

For starters, we now have a lot more confirmed Gems (namely that Zircons are lawyers and Morganites are in SOME position of power, and that Flourite is a six Gem fusion of SOME type while Rhodonite is a Pearl/Ruby fusion)...And also some interesting revelations about Pink Diamond's shattering.

Now, let me get this out of the way RIGHT NOW:

I DON'T think any of the Diamonds ACTUALLY did it. Is something VERY CLEARLY strange about it? YES. But it's too OBVIOUS...and more importantly, it's impossible to be Blue, as she's clearly genuine in her belief Rose shattered her and her grief. Yellow is a little more obvious, but here's the fault of that: why go through so much trouble to bury her grief and want Earth destroyed so badly if SHE did the killing? It doesn't make sense. Plus, she's clearly shown to be upset over Pink's death.

White is suspicious, but here's the thing: we know NOTHING of White at present, and it feels like it goes against Fair Play Whodunit to have a person we know nothing about be the killer.

But the BIG thing is: why did Pearl react to being reminded of Pink's death as harshly as she did? Why would she act like that if it was as simple as 'a Diamond shattered her and blamed Rose'? Clearly something more is going on here.

Also, love the Off Colors. They're fun...but carry a lot of Fridge Horror about how Home World works. 

Also, Lars is now a portal between Earth and Homeworld...that is weird. But did like Lars' development in this special.

Let us face it, none of the Diamonds seem to be wholly sane (just from reading these, they don't to me.) Blue is the only one with a believable reason not to be. 

White fits perfectly. How? Because everything that works against that, also makes her perfect for it. If not herself, in some way forced Pearl to do it. Give it out as a HUGE shock in the future.
