Ep 10. Coach Steven / Rose's Room

Steven Universe season 1 episode 10 is titled "Coach Steven / Rose's Room." In the first half of the episode, "Coach Steven," Steven joins the Crystal Gems to train under the new gym trainer, a thrashing, shouting human named Sugilite.

As Steven must confront what he thinks it means to be a hero, he turns to an unexpected ally.

In the second half of the episode, "Rose's Room," Steven sneaks into the Crystal Gems' room and remembers his loving mother, Rose Quartz.
