Driver's Permit (Era-3 MS4)

Driver's Permit is a minisode of Era-3. It was made to poke satire at the system in America used to get a Learner's Permit.

Synopsis
Citrine goes to get Steven a Learner's permit.

The DMV
Steven says to Citrine "I am ready! The Beach City DMV is open!" and Citrine says "Just a second! I have to finish with Thomas!" while putting many documents and objects into Thomas's gem. Thomas says,"I think I'm feeling heavy now Corporal Yellow Cyclops McBlade? Cahahahahahow-oh..." and then once she's done he falls over.

The next day, Steven and the Crystal Gems go to the Beach City DMV. When Steven, Thomas, and Citrine go up to the counter. The attendant says, "Alright. First kid, I need your proof of identity." To which Steven pulls out his passport. Attendant says,"Now you Ma'am, I need you to prove that he is your son?" and Citrine says ,"He's not my son..." the Attendant and Thomas look at her shockingly and the attendant says,"Umm...why shouldn't I stop you from letting him-." Citrine says, clearly aggravated, "I have the Affidavit of Guardianship." which she presents. The attendant goes on listing proof of residency, proof of school enrollment, proof of US citizenship, which Citrine instructs Thomas to hand over. Thomas says,"You aren't pulling that out of me." and he transforms his head into a printer and prints out all the documents requested, which then starts to pile up very high. Once they're done with that, Pearl, Garnet, and Amethyst are aghast. Steven gets his picture taken and then he gets his permit test done. As they are walking out, Thomas says,"All of that over a mere permit? Sounds crazy, doesn't it?" clearly to the audience, but Citrine says,"Trust me. This is government stuff.It happens all the time."
