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?
I can't wait for the next episode!!! When it said to be continued I was like oh no I don't wanna wait!!
