Gravity Falls: Gideon rises

The last episode of the 1st season of gravity falls aired, it wasn't what I thought it would be but it was still pretty good.

When Gideon hit the mystery shack in Dreamscapers I was expecting a big explosion of chaos and Stans secret to be revealed but instead we got Gideon trying to get his hands the 3 journals and failing miserably.

At the start of the episode poor Dipper, Mabel, Stan and Soos had to move in with Soos's nan because Gideon had taken over the Mystery shack so he could find Journal number 1 he then intended to turn the Shack into Gideon land, which makes me wonder why he hit the shack with a wrecking ball in the first place if he wanted to find the book?

Long story short (without completely ruining the episode.) when Stan, Soos, Dipper and Mabel try to get the shack back Gideon gets a hold of Dipper book Journal number 3 which Gideon realizes that Journal number 1 still alludes him and he attacks Dipper, Mabel and Soos with a Giant mecha Gideon robot, there was an awesome fight between Gideon and Dipper.

Though out the series Dipper has always been slightly insecure, insecure about his strength, insecure about his masculinity, insecure about Wendy and this episode Gideon raised the point that the only way Dipper can solve the problems in gravity falls is because of the Journal and that he can't solve problems with physical strength or even using his brain, so Dipper Proves Gideon wrong by beating him in a fight and long story short Dipper gets his journal back and Stan gets the Mystery Shack.

The end is the most interesting part of the episode, Stan borrows Journal  number 3 from Dipper calming that the monsters could make good exhibits ideas for the shack but instead takes it to the room behind the vending machine and it is revealed that Stan had book number 1 the whole time.

I thought it was pretty obvious that Stan at least knew about the books because, one he always made a big effort to cover up the weird things going on like dismissing dipper's paranormal experiences, making fake exhibits when he had actual weird paranormal things in his house and not to mention the secret room behind the vending machine so it was pretty obvious he knew more than he was letting on.

Any way I can't wait for the new season and to find out what Stan needed the books for and what exactly is the thing in the room behind the vending machine.

Gravity falls episode 19 dreamscaperers; who is bill cipher

In episode 19 of gravity falls we finally get to meet the pyramid guy and his name is Bill.

Bill first appeared in the opening sequence briefly and people have made theories on what the image means.

The theory is that the pyramid watches all the people that are being represented by the symbols using the Illuminati symbols as a way of watching everyone and from episode 19 dreamscaperers that theory seems true as he refers to Dipper as pine tree, Mabel as shooting star and Sooz as question mark and he says he knows a lot about everyone.

Any way I should explain the episodes plot now.

Gideon wanting the deeds to the mystery shack summons the dream demon Bill Cipher (or the pyramid guy)

to go into Stan's mind to find the code to the safe which holds the deeds, Mr Pyramid is indiacted to have some sort of past with Stan and he agrees to help gideon,  Dipper, Mabel and Sooz follow bill into Stan's mind and they try and save the shack. (and Stan's mind.)

Through out the episode Dipper is feeling down about Stan giving him all the jobs and picking on him the most and so he is feeling insecure about why Stan treats him like that and he uses this an opportunity to find out what Stan thinks of him while Mabel and Sooz try find the memory about the code to the safe.

I don't really want to give EVERYTHING away because I think watching it is much better and can't recommend this series enough, it's just so cleverly written and witty but this episode is a very revealing episode, not in the sense that it tells you the answers to all the riddles or explains a lot about Bill, Stan, the shack or the books but it does reveal the identity of the pyramid man,  it is more of a preparation for the next episode that will probably explain a lot more.

Because the episode was basically the kids going through Stan's mind and because Stan is so secretive we got cool stuff like Sooz stumbling upon a memory of the Stan revealing the secret thing behind the vending machine but because it was Sooz he moved on before the secret was revealed and I'm guessing that secret will be revealed next episode, but we also got to see all kinds of things like childhood memories to his date with Lazy susan.

 With out spoiling too much about what happened  Gideon got the deeds to the shack any way and started destroying the it, the episode ended with a to be continued sign.

This must mean that Stan's secret room behind the vending machine will be revealed, right?  it would be pretty obvious that there is a room under the shack when it has been flattened and they are left with a hole with a glowing green light radiating out of it.

Not only is the mystery shack being destroyed but now there is this evil dream demon on the lose, I wonder what will happen next?
