A/N: Hello everyone, I am back with chapter ten of this story. Here, the events of "The Time Traveler's Pig" are covered.
Disclaimer: I don't own Gravity Falls
It started with a fair being set up which Stan bragged about the cheapness of it. The sky tram crashed with Dipper inside it.
"I think the sky tram is broken. Also, most of my bones." said Dipper shaken.
"Mason!" cried Mrs. Pines horrified.
"He was fine." scoffed Stan.
"Your family's safety should be a higher priority." noted Shermie.
"I printed up some fake safety inspection certificates. Go slap one on anything that looks like a lawsuit." said Stan.
Dipper and Mabel's parents shot Stan an angry look.
"Grunkle Stan, is that legal?" asked Mabel concerned.
"When there's no cops around, anything's legal." answered Stan.
Again, Stan got death glares from Dipper and Mabel's parents.
"That isn't good." muttered Stan.
Soos was making a dunk tank which was revealed to be rigged.
"There's nothing on Earth that could knock me down!" declared Stan.
"Yeah, except for a futuristic laser arm cannon." said Soos.
Soos laughed.
"Hey Mr. Pines, that's exactly what happened." noted Soos.
"Don't remind me." grumbled Stan.
Stan began looking for his missing red screwdriver when Blendin was shown behind portable toilets.
"It's that bald dude that was saw earlier." noted Robbie.
Blendin used the stolen screwdriver to fix his camouflage suit.
"That jerk!" cried Stan.
"So, what's the deal with this guy?" asked Wendy.
"He's a time traveler." answered Mabel.
"Of course he is." sighed Mr. Pines.
It cut to the opening of the fair. Stan taunted people trying to get them to sink him in the dunk tank.
"If there's one thing, you're good at it's getting people to try and attack you." said Ford.
"Thank you." replied Stan.
Dipper and Wendy were eating question mark-shaped corn dogs.
"How do they get them into this shape?" asked Dipper.
"Trade secret." said Stan.
Mustard dripped onto Wendy's sleeve so she left to clean it off. Mabel then walked it with two cones of cotton candy.
"Look at you two! Getting all romantic at the fair!" cried Mabel.
"As if she'd date you." scoffed Robbie.
Dipper enthusiastically noted how well things were panning out.
"All your advice about just going for it, it's finally paying off!" declared Dipper.
"I'm glad you're following this advice to heart." said Ford happily.
"When are you going to learn Dipper? I'm always right about everything." said Mabel.
"Except for Norman." said Dipper.
"One-time." said Mabel.
"And Gideon." added Wendy.
"I had no way out!" declared Mabel.
"And Gabe." said Dipper.
Mabel shuttered.
"Wasn't that the puppet guy you were trying to impress?" asked Wendy.
"That...was not a good day." grumbled Dipper.
Mabel smelled body spray and Robbie arrived looking for Wendy. He also stole some of Mabel's cotton candy.
"You jerk." spat Stan.
"Calm down, old man." said Robbie.
"I got some new super tight skinny jeans. Thought she might want to check 'em out." said Robbie.
"Kids." said Stan.
"Careful old man." replied Wendy teasingly.
Robbie left intentionally bumping Dipper as he did so.
"I need to keep him away from Wendy at all costs." said Dipper.
"Oh man.' mumbled Dipper embarrassed.
Mabel began assuring her brother she would support him every step of the way when...
"Oh My Gosh, a pig!" cried Mabel.
"Waddles!" exclaimed Mabel happily.
"How is that garbage disposal doing?" asked Stan.
"He ate half an apple out of the trash yesterday." answered Mabel.
"Sounds right." replied Stan.
Mabel raced over to Farmer Sprott who revealed you need to guess the weight of the pig to win it. Mabel immediately bonded with one.
"Oh look, Mabel here found her real twin." said Pacifica to her friends.
"That's not you anymore." said Dipper comfortingly.
"Mabel, does your brother like her?" asked Mrs. Pines.
"Don't worry, match-maker Mabel is on it." answered Mabel.
"Good girl." replied Mrs. Pines.
Sprott asked how much Mabel though Old 15-Poundy is and Mabel easily guessed right.
"Are you some kind of witch?" asked Sprott.
"He's a psychic like Gideon." joked Wendy.
Sprott offered Mabel a fork and knife.
"You should have taken them." said Stan.
"There are forks and knives in the kitchen." noted Soos.
"And barbecue sauce." said Stan, drooling.
Mabel gave a horrified look.
"I'm just kidding. I wouldn't eat Waddles." said Stan reassuringly.
Dipper was walking with Wendy when she spotted an odd stuffed animal she wanted.
"My uncle taught me the secret to these games. You aim for the carnie's head, and take the prize when he's unconscious." whispered Dipper.
"Atta a boy!" declared.
Again, the younger twin's parents gave Stan an unapproving glare.
"Hey, everybody knows these carnie games are totally rigged. Honestly, I appreciate them." shrugged Stan.
Dipper exchanged a ticket for a ball.
"You only get one chance." said the carnie.
"Little did he know." said Dipper.
Dipper threw the ball only for it to bounce off the table and hit Wendy in the eye.
"Dude, you couldn't have blown any worse than that." said Soos.
Dipper ran off and grabbed a bag of ice.
"I guess the bag of ice really fit after all." said Wendy.
Dipper bumped into Blendin spilling the ice. Robbie had come in and used a snow cone on Wendy's eyes.
"Sorry kid." scoffed Robbie.
Dipper tried to ignore the older boy.
"I was wondering if, maybe, you wanted to go out with me?" asked Robbie.
"Yeah, I guess so." answered Wendy.
Dipper couldn't help but feel the sting of that moment return.
"I went thought this with Carla. It hurts, but it does get better." said Stan.
"Thanks, Grunkle Stan and I'm okay now." replied Dipper.
"Dipper was heartbroken as Mabel arrived with Waddles.
"I call him that because he waddles!" declared Mabel.
"Genius in its simplicity." sighed Gideon.
Mabel saw Robbie and Wendy together. Dipper moped sadly so Mabel tried cheering him up.
"Paging Doctor Waddles, we've got a boy here with a broken heart." said Mabel.
Mabel had Waddles dressed in a doctor's outfit. Dipper didn't laugh.
"Come on, man. These are the jokes." said Mabel.
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up." said Dipper.
"Mabel, do you ever wish you could you could go back in time and fix just one mistake?" asked Dipper.
"Nope! I do everything right the first time!" answered Mabel.
Watching this caused Mabel to tense up.
"Just a little more summer"
Dipper began going over what happened when he spotted Blendin.
"Hey you!" cried Dipper.
The twins confronted Blendin.
"Are you following us?" asked Dipper angrily.
"And why are you bald? What's the deal with that?" asked Mabel.
"Mabel, you just can't ask people why they're bald." said Pacifica.
Blendin panicked and tried using his stealth uniform to escape, but it still didn't work.
"Are you from the future or something?" asked Mabel.
Blendin freaked out more and threw a baby wipe at Mabel.
"AT least it was soft" shrugged Mabel.
"I'm...a time traveler." confessed Blendin.
"Is there any way to meet this Blendin person?" asked Ford.
"Unfortunately, I don't think so." answered Dipper.
Dipper saw Robie and Wendy on the Ferris wheel and asked Blendin if he could borrow his time machine. Blendin refused and showed off his time machine which looked like a tape measure.
"This making any sense to you?" asked Dipper.
"I think he's just crazy." answered Mabel.
"Safe guess." said Stan.
Blendin vanished in a flash and returned in old-time clothing.
"Fifteen years ago, there was a costume shop right here!" declared Blendin.
"Really?" asked Ford surprised.
"Yeah. I got rid of them." answered.
"How'd you do that?" asked Mabel.
"Arson." answered Stan.
Blendin returned in his regular clothes and introduced himself as a member of the Time Anomaly Removal Crew.
"Frankly, I find it impossible for their not to be anomalies." said Ford.
Blendin noted he didn't any anomalies.
"I don't know if it's some kind of paradox or if I'm just really tired." sighed Blendin.
Seeing a chance, the twins convinced Blendin to take a break and go on a ride. Soos noted he needed to take his belt off.
"One of your tools might fly off and accidentally fix something." said Soos.
That's so smart." said Mabel.
Blendin gave his belt to Soos who promised to guard it. Blendin got on the ride and Dipper swiped the time tape.
"Oops." said Soos.
"Smart going kid. Tricking a rube like your old Grunkle Stan." said Stan proudly.
At the Mystery Shack, the twins were looking at the time tape.
"Let's go two dodos and force them to make out!" proposed Mabel.
"Where on earth did you get that idea?" asked Pacifica.
"I don't know." answered Mabel.
"All that paradox stuff kind of freaked me out." noted Dipper.
"As it should. The flow of time is a delicate thing." replied Ford.
"And we wouldn't want to make time baby mad." added Mabel.
Dipper wanted to fix his bad throw so Robbie would get with Wendy while Mabel wanted to relive getting Waddles. The twins used the time tape and returned to the start of the fair earlier that day.
"My children went back in time." said Mrs. Pines stunned.
Mabel immediately followed through and once again won Waddles.
"And yes, I am a witch!" declared Mabel.
Mabel raced off with Waddles as Sprott lit a torch.
"Well, time to round up a mob." said Sprott.
"I didn't realize how close that was." admitted Mable.
"I don't like seeing my daughter possible being attacked by a mob." said Mr. Pines sternly.
Dipper caught up with Mabel and led her back to the ball toss.
"You only get one shot." said the Carnie.
"That's what you think." muttered Dipper.
Dipper threw the ball and knocked over the bottles. However, the ball ricocheted off the back of the stand and hit Wendy in the eye.
"Nice second chance." laughed Robbie.
Robbie again swooped in and again Wendy agreed to go out with him.
"Tough break kid." said Stan.
Dipper watched Wendy and Robbie while Mabel fed Waddles a caramel apple.
"The exact same thing happened twice; it was spooky." said Dipper.
Mabel proposed it was a time curse.
"I don't think that's possible." aid Mrs. Pines.
"Actually, it is." replied Ford.
"Is it possible the forces of time naturally conspire to undo any new outcomes?" asked Dipper.
"Hey Axolotl..." began Mabel.
"No. That is not possible." said Axolotl.
"He knew what I was going to say." gasped Mabel, amazed.
Dipper decided to try again which was followed by a montage of him failing. No matter what he tried, Wendy always ended up getting hit in the eye. All while a montage of Mabel and Waddles was shown.
"Aw." cooed Mrs. Pines.
"That's not how you reacted when Mabel first brought Waddles home." noted Mr. Pines.
"Wendy, how badly do you want that stuffed animal thing?" asked Dipper.
"More than anything in the world." answered Wendy.
Dipper threw the ball which ricocheted and opened a bag of balls which then fell on Wendy.
"What are the odds, dude?" asked Soos.
Robbie helped Wendy while shaking his head at Dipper.
"Oh man." groaned Dipper.
Dipper was writing a mathematical formula on a popcorn machine.
"Geez, he's your spitting image Poindexter." laughed Stan.
"Face it, Dipper, you're obviously fated to have a bad day at the fair, just like I'm fated to be with Waddles." said Mabel.
"Mabel, that is not a nice thing to say to your brother." said Mrs. Pines.
"Yeah." replied Mabel softly.
Dipper had a realization and told Mabel he needed her help.
"What about Waddles?" asked Mabel.
"It'll just take a few minutes." answered Dipper.
"Dang, I really forced her to help me." thought Dipper.
Dipper threw the ball intentionally missing the bottles. The ball traveled all around, and with help from Mabel, knocked the bottles over winning the stuffed animal.
"Rube Goldberg would be proud." joked Ford.
Robbie came over but, Wendy showed off the stuffed animal causing Robbie to sulk off.
Looks like came to the fair with the right person." said Wendy.
Robbie muttered angrily under his breath.
"Hey wait, that didn't happen." realized Robbie.
"No, it didn't." said Dipper.
The twins shared a thumbs up and Mabel declared it was time to win Waddles, but was horrified as Sprott awarded the pig to Pacifica.
"It's all yours! No one else's! Ol' Fifty-Poundy. Yours. Forever." said Sprott.
"I didn't win any dirty pig so I'm guessing you changed things again." answered Pacifica.
"What would you do with him anyway?" asked Gideon.
"My chef makes a delicious Tourtiere" answered Pacifica.
"Pigs make good eatin'!" exclaimed McGucket.
Mabel ran over to the Tunnel of Love and Corn-dogs where Dipper and Wendy were at. Mabel ran over screaming then explained the situation to Dipper.
"I'm sorry." said Dipper.
Mabel wanted to go back and change things again, but Dipper refused.
"In any other timeline, Wendy ends up going out with Robbie. I can't mess up this day again!" exclaimed Dipper.
"Quite the conundrum." mused Ford.
"Only an idiot would throw away the chance Dipper has." said Robbie.
"But we ended up hanging out." noted Wendy.
"Yeah, because he's an idiot." said Robbie.
The two began fighting over the Time Tape and got sent back in time.
"When are we?" asked Dipper.
"The real question is, when are we." said Mabel.
Mabel realized Dipper said that and they shared a bit of banter.
"So cute." said Mrs. Pines.
Dipper heard a noise and a stampede of buffaloes appeared. The twins ran away and ended up falling off a cliff.
"Kids!" cried Mrs. Pines horrified.
Dipper and Mabel crashed into a covered wagon.
"A new life awaits us...on this Oregon Trail." said a pioneer.
"Fascinating. You've gone back to the pioneer days." said Ford excitedly.
"That's when my grandpa's from." said Robbie.
"By Trembly! Fertilla, it seems you've given birth to two more children!" exclaimed the pioneer.
Dipper and Mabel realized they were in a wagon with a woman and her many children.
"Ah, that must the Mecc family." realized Ford.
"Oh yeah, didn't they have a ton of kids?" asked Wendy.
"They came to Oregon with six children and had forty-two total." explained Ford.
"No thank you!" declared Mrs. Pines.
One of the kids noticed Mabel's braces.
"Mabel, we can't start messing with the past." warned Dipper.
"Oh, says the guy who messed with the past all day and cost me my pig?" asked Mabel angrily.
"Got you there due." said Soos.
Mabel began messing with the past.
"That can't be good." muttered Ford.
"How come?" asked Mabel, regretting her actions.
"Even the tiniest change to the timeline can have ripple effect. It's called the butterfly effect." explained Ford.
Don't worry, I'm sure the other Time Anomaly Removal Crew members probably fixed it." said Dipper reassuringly.
Dipper took the time tape and fought Mabel over it. They ended up in prehistoric times facing a hungry dinosaur.
"Ah!" cried Mrs. Pines horrified.
The twins escaped and landed in a futuristic time line with men running. A large baby was flying and firing laser from his eyes.
"What in the world?" asked Mrs. Pines confused.
"That's Time Baby." answered Dipper.
"This future seems neat." said Mabel.
"You have a weird definition of neat." said Pacifica.
"Hey, dystopia means no cops." shrugged Stan.
Dipper used the time tape to return to the present. Mabel took it and ran off past several familiar scenes with Dipper on her tail.
"So, we were the anomalies he was looking for." realized Dipper.
The two appeared outside what would become the Mystery Shack in the snow. The time tape began glowing and transported the two away just before a familiar face opened the door.
"You look good Grunkle Stan." said Mabel.
"Thanks, but that wasn't me pumpkin." replied Stan.
"It was me. That was a few weeks before I got lost." revealed Ford.
The twins found themselves in a black void.
"We've transported to the end of time!" cried Dipper.
"Dude." said Wendy surprised.
"I don't even know how to comprehend this." said Mrs. Pines shaken.
"Why does it smell so bad in here?" asked Mabel.
The two opened the door and realized they were in a port-a-potty at the fair.
"Look, we're back in the present." noted Mabel.
"But which present?" asked Dipper.
Wendy still had her stuffed animal to the joy of Dipper. However, Pacifica still had Waddles to the horror of Mabel.
"Give it up! I've worked too hard to lose this!" declared Dipper, to his sister.
"Oh geez." groaned Dipper regretfully.
Mabel said Waddles was her soulmate, but Dipper noted Mabel once said that about a barn of yarn.
"Don't ask." said Dipper.
Dipper asked if |Mabel wanted Wendy to date Robbie to which Mabel replied she wasn't sure. Mabel looked at a photo of her and Waddles then began banging her head on a totem pole.
"You're not guilt-tripping me." said Dipper.
"Um, I think it's the other way around, dude." noted Soos.
Dipper attempted to prove Mabel would get over this, but each time we went into the future, Mabel was still mourning the loss of her beloved pig.
"And if you look to your left, you'll see Miserable Mabel: a girl who went bonkers when her dreams were shattered by some heartless jerk." said Soos.
"That's gotta hurt!" cried McGucket.
Dipper used the time tape to back to the fair.
"Wendy, I just wanted to say that, well I just wanted to say that people make mistakes, and when they do, you should forgive them." said Dipper.
"Aww." cooed Mrs. Pines.
"And also, that tight pants are overrated." added Dipper.
"Amen." said Stan.
Dipper threw the ball which ricocheted and hit Wendy in the eye. Robbie swopped in and stole Wendy away.
"It is done." sighed Dipper.
Mabel and Waddles rushed over thanking Dipper.
"We raised good kids." said Mrs. Pines.
Pacifica walked by getting pecked by the chicken she won instead.
"At least the chicken cacciatore was good." shrugged Pacifica.
"I couldn't break your heart, Mabel." said Dipper.
"Good job kid.," said Stan.
An angry Blendin took his time tape back and confronted the twins.
"Do you have any idea how many rules you broke? I'm asking. I wasn't there with you...it was probably a lot right?" asked Blendin.
Two men appeared next to Blendin.
"The Time Paradox Avoidance Enforcement Squadron!" cried Blendin.
Loph and Dundgren arrested Blendin for the anomalies Dipper and Mabel caused. Blendin vowed revenge as he was taken away.
"I'll go back in time and make sure your parents never meet!" declared Blendin.
Mrs. Pines gasped in horror.
"Don't worry mom, we're still here." noted Mabel.
"Unfortunately, your actions here had severe consequences." noted Axolotl.
Mabel tensed up.
Just a little more summer
"Mabel, you okay?" asked Dipper.
"I'm fine." answered Mabel lying.
Stan was mocking the crowd when he made the mistake of taunting Lolph. Lolph fired his laser which destroyed the trigger and dunked Stan to the cheer of the crowd.
"You looked like the opossum that fell into the creek!" laughed Gideon.
Dipper was annoyed seeing Robbie feeding Wendy a caramel apple.
"I'm on it." said Mabel.
Mabel pointed Waddles at the apple. Waddles ran to the apple causing Robbie to drop it. Robbie backed into a table and spilled hot water which caused his pants to shrink.
"That'll do pig." said Dipper.
"Thanks again Dipper." said Mabel gratefully.
"No problem." shrugged Dipper.
"If you ask me, she was being totally selfish." scoffed Robbie.
"What?" asked Mabel uneasy.
"You forced your brother to throw away a chance with his dream girl so you could get a pig." explained Robbie.
"Nah. Dipper was being selfish. He had this mixed-up view of romance where he had to make the day perfect because he didn't think he was perfect. He didn't deserve the girl." replied Stan.
"Let us move on." said Axolotol.
A/N: That's where we'll end things for now. A cookie for whoever finds the Mean Girls reference. Tourtiere is a French-Canadian meat pie and it's good. Being half French-Canadian myself, I can personally attest to this. Stan explaining why Dipper was in the wrong comes from Alex Hirsch in the commentary of this episode so hopefully people will stop blasting Mabel's actions here. Next time, the events of "Fight Fighters" are covered. Please review.
