Pearl cannot keep herself together and runs over to Amethyst and hugs her, sobbing hysterically. She tried to perform the pie joke like Steven, but upset by his worsening condition, starts crying, frustrating Amethyst who accuses her of "killing him faster". When Amethyst demands her to do so she is placed in front of Steven, wearing his king costume from earlier. Pearl, who could not bear to look at Steven aging rapidly, could not bring herself to help them. Horrified, the Gems try to reverse his age by hosting many birthday parties, but instead of becoming younger Steven ages even more. While the Gems clean up the supplies from Steven's birthday parties to them, Pearl admits that the parties were fun with Garnet still wearing Steven's Birthday Suit saying it "makes her important" before Lion arrives with Steven. He trips and falls, and Lion comes and carries him in his mouth to the Gems. Steven starts running back home, aging rapidly as he runs. Taking this the wrong way, Sadie chases Steven out with a chair. He asks Lars and Sadie if they could help him into his "Birthday Suit" much to Sadie's shock and Lars' slight amusement. He thinks that if he has a reverse birthday, he will turn back to normal. In shock of his older form, he becomes worried that he has to start doing older things now, such as eating sugarless cereal, aging him even more. Steven looks in the glass case of donuts and spots his reflection. Lars becomes confused as he does not recognize the older Steven. He continues to age as he begins to feel older and heads toward the Big Donut and asks for two of the "usual". His forlorn attitude inadvertently activated his gemstone, resulting in him aging into a teenager, making him hit puberty instantaneously. Distraught, Steven wanders into town, contemplating the nature of birthdays and aging. This makes Steven deeply think about the childish things he does. Before doing anything, Garnet and Pearl tell Steven that they are just "too big" for parties. Lastly, Steven throws a party for Garnet, featuring kazoo-racers. Throughout the party Steven acts as a clown and tells jokes, which Pearl does not find funny at all. Steven then throws a party for Pearl, who is unenthusiastic about the idea.

Steven first throws a party for Amethyst, which spirals into violence as she does not completely understand how to celebrate a birthday. Amethyst, very sick, vomits when the screen cuts to black. Steven is flabbergasted by this and decides to make up all the birthdays that they missed. Garnet then says that they do not celebrate birthdays, stating, "It's not our way". Steven is amazed at their age, at which he remarks how they can find a birthday cake large enough for all those candles. Amethyst becomes queasy after eating the burrito, and Pearl adds that they can not die from food poisoning. Pearl tells Steven that they are immortal and do not age, although they can still get injured and die, which upsets Steven. Pearl states that the gems in the photo were them many years ago.
