"What's up with me?" asked Dipper as he spoke out loud do himself. "This is the fifth shirt that I sweated out of this week."
Dipper sniffed under his arms and was immediately disgusted by the smell of the shirt.
"Gross…not wearing this a second time."
As Dipper began to pull his shirt off, Mabel busted through the door to their room!
"Hi brother, whatcha up too!?" asked Mabel.
"Mabel, I keep telling you to knock first!" yelled Dipper in frustration.
"Oh, you worry to much. I've seen you without a shirt on anyway!" said Mabel.
"One…don't remind me…and TWO…privacy!" said Dipper as he immediately straightened his shirt to keep it on in spite of the fact that it smelled.
"Also, you smell something?" asked Mabel. She began to walk closer to Dipper and started to sniff over to his direction. "Do you know you smell!?"
Dipper blushed.
"Maybe…that's not the point, I gotta go," said Dipper.
"Dipper, wait a minute," said Mabel as she grabbed Dipper's arm to stop him from running off so quickly from the room. "Grunkle Stan wanted you to come downstairs for something, but don't know what!"
"OK, fine, I'll check with him to see what's up," said Dipper as he rubbed his left arm Mabel grabbed.
"Also, Dipper, you're sort of sweaty! You sure you're feeling ok?" asked Mabel.
"I'm FINE! JUST FINE!" said Dipper in an almost panicked voice.
As Dipper walked down stairs, he saw Grunkle Stan come around the hallway from the main entrance of the mystery shack.
"Oh good, you're here, I need to ask you something?" said Stan.
"Uh, yes Grunkle Stan!?" asked Dipper.
"I wanted to know if you still remember the talk we had…and…" Grunkle Stan stopped speaking, realizing he smelled something too.
"What's that foul stench," asked Grunkle Stan."
"Uh, I don't smell anything," said Dipper.
"It's his shirt…and I think his body…I think he's turning into a zombie," said Mabel.
Grunkle Stan leaned forward toward Dipper and sniffed once, almost repelling back.
"Eeesh, Dipper, you shower or what!?" asked Grunkle Stan.
"That's the problem, I've been showering two or three times a day, I've got these odd rashes and I can't hit the high notes to my favorite music anymore," says Dipper.
"Also, when I grabbed your arm, you were really sweaty," says Mabel.
"Relax, boy, you're just going through change stuff, we talked about it, remember?" said Grunkle Stan.
"Actually, you talked to me about.." says Mabel as she stops herself from speaking about the incident involving Dipper and her switching bodies.
"We'll talk later, right now I gotta count some money, and then, we'll talk again about it all. Have questions ready!" says Grunkle Stan as he walks into the next room.
"Mabel…what's he going to talk about!?" asks Dipper.
Mabel stops and reflects on that awful moment when Grunkle Stan thought that he was lecturing Dipper, but Mabel was in Dipper's body at the time. She slowly comes back to reality and responds to Dipper.
"You got about 1 hour to enjoy your childhood," says Mabel with a smile. "I feel SO bad for you brother…..well, bye!"
As Mabel runs back up stairs she leaves a confused and almost lost Dipper. He wasn't sure what to think. What was happening to him, he thought.
"This stinks!" says Dipper out loud.
"Sure does, take a shower boy," yells Grunkle Stan from the other room.
Dipper went to take one more shower and put on a new, clean shirt. He went straight to the living room and sat down to watch TV. His hair felt like it was already getting oiler even after a few minutes of getting washed. Not to mention that he was scratching a lot as stubs of hair seemed to appear in places. He felt sort of miserable.
Grunkle Stan suddenly calls out for Dipper to come into the office.
"Dipper, get in here will ya," says Grunkle Stan as he puts the rest of his money into the safe in the wall in his office.
"OK Dip, sit down, we'll have a man to man talk, you and me," says Stan.
"Look, Grunkle Stan, I think I can handle…" Dipper was immediately cut off. Grunkle Stan was not about to let him get out of this.
"I figure I can start off with questions and concerns you may have," said Grunkle Stan. "Anything that comes to mind!"
"Shouldn't Mom and Dad be the ones to fix this problem?" asked Dipper.
"Of course not! why do you think I got this manual: I'm sweaty and awkward part 2."
"For the same reason that you accidentally blew up the battery in your car!" says Dipper.
"That was Gideon setting up my car to explode It and you know it," says Grunkle Stan.
"Let's start with chapter one…says Grunkle stan.
