One day, in Gravity Falls Oregon, Dipper and Mabel Pines, twin siblings, were in the living room watching the latest episode of Duck-tective when their great uncle Stan entered the room, adjusting his red bow tie.

"Well, kids, I've got tourists outside," Stan announced. "I've got to go set up for my tour. So, i'll see you kids later."

"Bye, Grunkle Stan!" The kids chorused and they turned their head back to the screen.

Stan went into his tourist room that was filled with many fake attractions that he showed off. He loved this job. It made him a lot of money. He made sure all the attractions were good and well and was about to go let the tourists in, when suddenly, out of nowhere, a mystery blue portal appeared.

Stan noticed the portal in the reflection of a mirror in the room and raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Hey! What the-?"

Stan didn't get a chance to finish his sentence for the portal started sucking him up.

"Hey!" Stan screamed. "What is this? But me down! Put me. AH!"

It was all Stan managed to say before he disappeared into the portal and it closed up.

In Springfield, IL., Krusty the Clown was happy on how his show was doing, smiling on the reviews in a paper.

"Man, am i doing great!" He grinned, a cigar in his hand. "Oh, i'm gonna make a lot of money for this weeks performance! According to this sheet, I'm the highest rated program for this week!"

Just then, the same blue portal appeared right above Krusty's head.

"Hey what?"

"AH!" Krusty didn't have time to finish for Stan landed on top of his head.

"Ugh!" Stan rubbed his head. He looked around the room. A room filled with Krusty the Clown stuff. "Where? Where am i? Why is there so much clown junk in here?"

"GET OFF OF ME!" Krusty shouted, pushing Stan off him.

Stan was knocked to the ground and when he recovered, he saw the same clown that was on all the merchandise around the room.

"How did you get here?" Krusty snarled. "I have a show coming on in about an hour and don't need your disturbance! Do i have to call security on you?!"

"Actually, I have no idea how i got here! Some weird portal thingy shot me here! And seriously, what's up with your office?! Almost everything in here has your face on it!" Stan stated.

"That's my merchandise pal! The people of Springfield love me! I'm really popular here!" Krusty informed him, giving him a glare. "I've been in the entertainment job for years! And i make a whole lot of money out of it!"

"Oh yeah? Well I'm just as popular as you, clown!" Stan shot back. "Back at my place, i also entertain people with my attractions for a living! I'm known as Mr. Mystery! The people in Gravity Falls love me and i make just as much money as you!"

After hearing that, Krusty's eyes grew wide with delight. "Really? Gee, i guess you and I are pretty similar to each other…."

Stan realised this as well and he grinned and Krusty. "Hey, i guess you're right!"

Krusty suddenly became very interested in Stan. "Say… you wouldn't mind going out and… getting a beer, would you? Moe's got some fine beer."

Stan smiled. "No i wouldn't mind at all! You know, clown, I get the feeling we're gonna get along great!"

"Me too!" Krusty nodded. "But please don't call me clown. It's Krusty."

"You got it, Krusty! And you can call me Stan! Stan Pines!"

"Well then, Stan, shall we go get that beer?" Krusty smirked, extending his hand.

"We shall," Stan answered, taking it.

Then Stan and Krusty headed on over to Moe's for beer. It looked like it was going to be the start of a beautiful friendship.
