So this is the beginning of the final arc, in Gravity Falls, really, if we think about it that way. What I’ve always appreciated about Gravity Falls as a show is it never went full GoT. People figured out that Stan was a twin, and they were like, “Cool! We were in fact dropping hints, foreshadowing, and things of that nature. Fantastic.” The didn’t change what was happening because people guessed, which is the most fucking asinine thing I can think of and I am in fact a huge believer that the obsession with nothing getting out about a movie or show before it airs is actively contributing to making media worse, and also making life miserable for actors, but I digress.

Gravity Falls didn’t do that, and maybe  it was because it is a show for children and so the writers knew their core was not online trying to ‘figure the show out’ (This is why when I want to watch something, as I’m going to watch The Midnight Club, i do it by myself.) but whatever the reason I am grateful.

We’ve had no reason to believe that Stan is innocent of anything from the word go, but what’s soi interesting about this show is the opportunity to show that Dipper and Mabel have to come to that. What does it mean to have faith in someone? Is that naive or ideal?
