A week later, Mabel was laying on the carpet in front of the tv. She was trying to figure out how to play her brother's favorite nerd game, Dungeons, Dungeons, and More Dungeons. Apparently the non-magical version of the game was more confusing and had more math than the magical, real-life version.

She heard the voice of Shandra Jimenez on the news channel, "Breaking news. After almost a year in prison Gideon Gleeful has escaped from the high-security jail. If you find him report to police immediately."

But Mabel wasn't paying attention to the news. She had given up on the game and moved on to thinking about her plan. What would she have to do to save her brother? Where was Bill? What would she do if she found him? If she found her brother, would he be strong and evil like Bill, or to weak to stand?

After some more thinking and not getting any ideas, she change the channel to the infomercials channel.

"Are you sick of piles of owls constantly blocking your driveway? Well then you need to get OWL TROWEL!"

What's the point of the owl trowel? she thought. She'd never seen an owl in a driveway in her life. Well, only once.

When they were five...

"Mabel! Guess what I found!" Dipper shouted.

She hadn't loved animals so much at that point.

"What is it Dipper?" she asked following him to the driveway.

There, she saw Dipper pick something up. An owl.

"AHHHHHH!" she screamed.

"It has a broken wing." he said.

She began to back away.

"Look, it likes you!" he exclaimed.

She stayed still.

"Wanna hold it?" he asked.

She slowly took him from her brother.

She then noticed how fuzzy his feathers were, how gentle his eyes were, and how comforting his 'who' was.

She and her brother got their parents and took the owl to a hospitalhospital, where it recovered and was sent back to the wild.

It was with Dipper's help that she began to love animals.

Mabek sighed and continued to watch the infomercials. Gravity Falls sure sold some weird things.

"Are your enemies giving you a hard time? Do you wanna get even? Well then you need Wild Weapons! Totally not illegal."

Mabel jumped up! That was it! She didn't need a plan, she needed objects! Almost every adventure she and her brother had, some sort of object helped them. She began to make a list.

She would need Journal 3. She wrote it down. Should she take the other two journals? She decided against it, since it was journal 3 that had helped them most of the time and all the journals would be too much to carry. The grappling hook? Definetely. She wrote it down. She decided to keep thinking of other objects. But she couldn't right now. Right now Grunkle Stan, Soos and Grunkle Ford wanted to take her to the movies.

...

Since Stan was the mayor, he got free movie passes for all of them to see Pony Heist 2. She rememebrred last year when they went to see Pony Heist 1, her, Stan, Soos, and Dipper. She had brought food from the outside, and got them all kicked out. But Dipper had a plan.

Dipper's plan got them to be able to sit in the room where the projector was. It was a great view. "PONY HEIST? MORE LIKE BALONY HEIST!" she yelled. But she didn't have the heart to yell it now.

When she got home, Grunkle Stan asked if she wanted any ice cream.

"Sorry Grunkle Stan," she said, "but I'm going to go to sleep."

She left her uncle and climbed up the stairs. When she got to her room, she found Dipper's backpack amongst his things. She put journal 3 and her grappling hook inside. Then she climbed into her bed. She realized that she slept best here, because even with Dipper's belongings right next to her, she felt safe.
