*** On Connie's side, she's angry at Steven for sacrificing himself without consulting her when they'd previously acted as partners. But then she blows him off for days and completely ignores any of his attempts to talk to her and patch things up making her seem like something of a hypocrite. And she took Lion.

*** Steven himself also counts. While one can make a case that he's desperate for a slice of normality after what he just went through on Homeworld, his focus is almost entirely on invoking [[Status Quo Is God ]] and he doesn't seem that concerned for Lars who is still, as far as he knows, trapped on the capital planet of a racist, brutal, galaxy spanning empire.

** Mayor Dewey. When we meet him, he's a well meaning but flawed mayor who seems somewhat out of his depth running a town with magic space rocks and alien creatures. Then we got Dewey Wins which painted him as a Corrupt Politician whose only mayor because of his ego and is blatantly unqualified to be a leader. To be fair, the episode takes time to highlight that Dewey is being blamed for issues he couldn't have predicted or done anything about (namely Homeworld Gems abducting people) but he's so unsympathetic to the point that he's, at best, indifferent about Lars being lost in space to the faces of his parents and girlfriend. Safe to say not many shared Steven's disappointment in him losing the mayoral election

** It's almost impossible for some to feel any shred of sympathy for {{spoiler|Blue Diamond and Yellow Diamond when their unhealthy grieving over Pink Diamond's supposed death was revealed}} given the amount of time that had been spent putting both characters well over the [[Moral Event Horizon]] with their actions we knew of prior to this development.
