Episode 68: Nightmare hospital - Discussion [SPOILERS]
10 years ago
General
So I got a few request to talk a discussion on episode 68 Nightmare Hospital. So if you have no seen the episode STOP here because SPOILERS AHEAD!
Its another Connie episode, being one of my favorite characters i was more then happy to see her. Not only Connie but her mother too. I've been curious about her parents for some time now, I know some kind of development was coming i was just waiting for when as they were not yet aware of the magical things Connie is involved with. Anyway back to the events of the episode. So when they entered the hospital I thought it was super adorable how they held hands before entering the spooky hospital. Im a big fan of their developing relationship and i just find that innocent puppy love thing so cute, so it made me especially happy.
I was expecting some kind of magic to be involved but was surprised to find the return of the Gem cluster mutants from Keeping It Together. I have sooo many questions. How did they get there? Why are they there? And why did the doctors think they were normal sick people? oh and oh man the SOUNDS that they make really get me. Those odd hallow screaming sounds. I also really love their design, i really did the body horror look. Speaking of things I love I really love Steven and Connie's fighting style, the team work and such was really great.
Can i also say this show handles character development very well? Dr. Maheswaran (connies mom) was played very well over. Although a little shaken and upset by the situation she more cares about the relationship with her daughter then any of that. She wants her to be safe, but also happy. A lot of other shows I've seen kinda do similar things the parents dont really change, they get mad and try to stop them from doing it or just go the im not changing my mind route. So i liked this out come a lot more. My own parents are kind of similar in that sense, wanting me to do my best and to be safe but also wanting me to be happy, and working around my weirdness so i can be happy rather then trying to stop me or change me. So i liked it a lot, i can relate. And i felt it was a lot more true to life then the automatic no other shows would give in this situation.
And what you've been waiting for...the ending. After they say the 'i love yous' Steven looks sad and hugs his mother sword. Ouch. This show suuuuure knows how to just destroy your heart doesn't it? Don't have much to say other then all i want to do is give Steven a big hug.
Alright well there it is, my thoughts on it. Its my first time trying this so I'm sorry ifs all over the place/badly written! I'll get better in time i am sure. but its not about me anyway, its about you guys! What did you think? Feel free to discuss in the comments!

FA+

One of my favorite lines from Nightmare Hospital goes to:
"Do you know how many children I see everyday in the hospital who've cut their faces off playing with sword?! NONE! Because they all have parents who love them, and who don't let them play around with deadly weapons like some kind of gang member! No playing with swords! Under any circumstances."
Such a crazy line and a very bizarre train of logic...
The only thing I felt you left out (and something quite odd to do on a furry site) is that Lion appears!
Steven training him with the use of those Lion Licker treats was so great & adorable! ^_^
But yeah.. I also really want to know how the clusters got out...I suppose we can only assume they're out because of Peridot tampering with the gestation pods they were in...
