Everyone was preparing and decorating for a party, while they were doing that, both Mabel and Luan were sitting on the couch.
Luan looked sick and said," Oh boy, Mabes. I-I don't feel so good. I BBBBLLAA!" Luan said a she pretended to throw up, and sprayed silly string over her sister.
"Oooh, Grunkle Stan, what did you feed us?! BBBLLAAA!" Mabel said a she also sprayed silly string on her sister.
The both of them did it a couple of more times. Lincoln and Ronnie Anne were near them, and they weren't faring better.
"Oh man, seeing all that makes me BBBLLAA!" Lincoln said and then did the same thing with Ronnie Anne
"Ugh, same here lame-o. I'm BBBLLAA!" Ronnie said as she sprayed silly string as well.
The four of them laughed, but were soon interrupted by Wendy.
"Guys! Guys, stop! Something terrible just happened!" Wendy said.
The four of them waited for what the redhead had to say.
"BBBBLLAAA!" Wendy said as she sprayed silly string on all of them, and they all laughed.
Luan wiped a tear from her eye, and said," Ah, nothing like a little comedy to brighten your mood."
"Yep, comedy gold!" Leia said a she threw some gold confetti into the air, and some of it got onto Stan, who looked annoyed.
Stan then collect both the silly string and confetti and said," Alright, alright! Party supplies are now off-limits!"
"Boy, what a party pooper." Mr. Coconuts said, as Luan held him.
"Speaking of parties, who's birthday is it again, Mr. Pines?" Soos asked.
"Nobody's. Thought this party might be a good way to get kids to spend money at the shack." He said and pulled out a 'Pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey game'.
"Nice!" Soos cheerfully said with thumbs up.
"And would the kids be between the ages of 4-9? Cause that game is lame." Lynn asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, I mean why use a donkey? How about a pony or a unicorn." Lola said.
Lisa rolled her eyes, and said," I may be part of the age demographic that meets the criteria, but I find that attempt of entertainment trivial."
"I like it, it reminds me of voodoo." Lucy said.
"No, I bring joy to the people of this town by showing them attractions. But they also want fun. If the young people of this town want fun, then I'll smother' em with fun!" Stan said cheerfully.
Everyone had a raised eyebrow or shook their heads and they looked at Mabel who was pouring diet soda in a punch bowl.
Bobby leaned over to Lori and whispered," This sorta reminds me of how you tried to do a grown up party, babe. But with possibly different results." Lori couldn't help but agree.
"Maybe comments like that are why kids don't go to the Mystery Shack." Dipper suggested.
"And also the comments about the Mystery Shack on Social Media." Lori said with Leni nodding, due to the both of them being savvy with social media.
"Yeah, I read a word I never heard of and shall not repeat." Bobby agreed.
"Besides, you'll need help from those who know the minds of people our age." Lincoln said.
Stan rolled his eyes at them, and said," "Ugh, can you all or one of you make yourself useful and copy these flyers." Stan said, as he held a flyer for the party.
"Oh boy, a trip to the copier store!" Mabel said cheerfully.
"Well ink me impressed!" Luan said and laughed at her joke with Mabel, Stan and Soos, while the others groaned.
"Ha! Dude, you're a comedy genius. You guys want to hear my Copier store slogan?" Soos said.
"Grunkle Stan, we can literally spread the word with our phones and social media." Lori said, as she held up her phone.
"No one's going to the Copier store. Nor are we sending invites on those devices. You kids need to do things the old fashioned way. So to save the trouble, use the old copier in my office. I finally fixed the old girl up! Good as new!" Stan said.
Lori rolled her eyes at her Great Uncles aversion to use it. Pop Pop and Gramps were around the same age as Stan and were more tech savvy than him.
Maybe she and the others could show him the joys of technology like they did with their dad? Then again, the results could be the same as dad's and they would then have to find a way to get Stan unhooked.
"As in you kicked it a couple of times and didn't bother to check the insides?" Lincoln said in a knowing tone, considering he knew his Great Uncle well during their stay with him.
Ronnie Anne and everyone else tried to suppress their laughter.
Stan rolled his eyes, but on the inside he was praising his grandnephew for the burn. But he didn't show it, he had a reputation and all.
"What do you know, you just volunteered Lincoln." Stan said and handed him the flyer.
"Seriously?" Lincoln grumbled.
"Yes, seriously. The rest of you get back to work or else no pay." Stan said.
"Grunkle Stan, except for Wendy and Soos, you don't pay us at all." Dipper pointed out.
"And we'll keep it that way, and you get to go with Lincoln. The rest of you get this place set up." Stan ordered.
Both brothers knew they couldn't get out of it, and went to Stan's office.
When both boys got to Stan's office, they both pulled the sheet that was covering the printer. The printer had seen better days, with moths coming out of it, dust and cobwebs covering it. It also looked like it would fall apart at any moment.
"Y'know, Ronnie Anne told me that her grandfather can be cheap. But I think he wouldn't be cheap like Stan. This thing looks like it's about to fall apart." Lincoln said.
Dipper opened the lid and said," Yeah, I agree with you on that Linc. I don't think it does work, but let's try it."
He then pressed a button, and rests his arm on the machine. It then turned on and created a copy of his arm.
Lincoln picked it up and said," Well, looks like it does work." The paper then started to shake and Lincoln dropped it. "What the?"
Both brothers gasped in shock and fear as they saw the arm come to life, and it started to crawl towards them.
"AH!" Both siblings screamed.
Lincoln looked around and found his soda he had put on a table. He threw it at the arm, and once the liquid made contact, it melted into ink.
Lincoln looked at the readers and said," Well, folks, as if things couldn't get any weirder, we have that."
"Linc, I think the copier can copy human beings!" Dipper said horrified.
"Wow, where on earth did Grunkle Stan get this thing?" Lincoln asked shocked.
"That's something we're going to need to figure out later. For now, we need to finish copying… while also being very careful not to copy ourselves." Dipper said.
The both of them then got to copying, while also being very careful not to copy themselves. And once they finished, they went out with everyone to spread the word about the party. And a couple of hours later, Stan assembled everyone, who were all standing in a line by age. With Soos at one end and Lisa was at the other end.
Lori looked around and said, "Huh, is this how you guys feel after I order you guys to be line formation when I'm in charge?"
"Yes." Her siblings said at once.
"Alright party people… and Dipper. Let's talk business. Soos, because you'll work for free and you begged, I'm lettin' you D.J. Luna, you'll bring the music as well if he gets tired. Or doesn't do well."
"You got it Grunkle Stan." Luna said.
"You won't regret it, Mr. Pines. Luna's been teaching me and giving me tips. I've also got a book that tells me out to do it r-right!" Soos said excitedly and held up said book. He then held out his fist, and Luna fist-bumped him.
"Somewhat encouraging. Bobby, Lori, Leni, Luna and Luan, you've got mingling duty, try to spice things up."
All of them had a raised eyebrow with Bobby saying.
"Uh, Mr. Pines… what exactly do you mean by that?"
"Not the way you four are thinking that's for sure. Also, no funny business with my grandniece, understand?" Stan said the last part with narrowed eyes.
Everyone who knew what Stan was talking about tried not to snicker while Bobby and Lori faces went red from embarrassment.
Bobby started to sweat and said," Y-yes sir."
"Good, the rest of you, you can do whatever unless I say so. But Wendy and Mabel, you've got ticket duty."
"What? But Grunkle Stan, this party is my chance to make new friends!" Mabel exclaimed.
"I… I could work with Wendy." Dipper offered.
His siblings took notice of that and shared glances with small smiles forming at what their brother was trying to do. Lincoln saw that and gulped, while the others didn't notice.
Stan rolled his eyes and said," You realize that if you do, you gotta commit to staying at the ticket stand with Wendy. No getting out of it, unless others want to partake in it. But it's just the two of you, alone, all night."
Dipper looked at Wendy, who was spraying Soos's belly with Silly String, but failed to notice the smiles forming on his sisters faces.
He smiled and said," I promise."
"So, how are you going to get Wendy to kiss you?" Lincoln teased.
He and Lucas were in the attic getting ready, a couple of hours ago they had finished setting up the party and with the help from the teenage crowd, they fixed it up a bit.
Dipper blushed a bit and said confidently," Very funny bro, but I devised a plan to make sure tonight with Wendy goes perfectly."
Lincoln had a raised eyebrow and said," This isn't going to be one you're over complicated ones, is it?"
Dipper gave his brother a look and said, "Linc, you make plans like those as well."
Lincoln rolled his eyes and said, "Yeah, but there not over complicated like yours. Besides you helped me with half of those plans."
Lucas scratched the back of his neck and said, "Yeah, you got me there."
They heard footsteps coming and then the door was kicked opened by Lynn and then all the sisters ran in and closed the door. They all had smiles on their faces and looked Dipper, who was getting nervous on what was happening but soon realized and gulped.
Lincoln held the bridge of his nose and mumbled something about 'meddling' and 'again'.
"Little bro if you need help with Wendy we can help you!" Luna said and everyone yelled their agreement. Well, except for Lori, who looked surprised.
"Uh guys?"
"Yeah little bro! Soos or myself could play some slow songs to set the mood." Luna said with a wink.
"I could give you some jokes that will help you flirt with her and make her laugh!" Luan said.
"I can make you a nice suit! Something other than your regular clothes and that bowtie. Like, Bowties are so not cool." Leni said.
"I could make some cute couple nicknames! How about Wendip or Wenluc?" Mabel suggested.
The girls thought about it for a second and then Lola said, "First one sounds like some sort of dip for chips and the other needs work sis. I suggest-"
Lori whistled everyone to stop and everyone looked at Lori, who was had light scowl on her face.
"Guys, remember that isn't what we were going to say. Remember, we aren't going to meddle."
"Yeah, what Lori... wait, what did you say Lori?" Dipper asked surprised.
"I mean, remember when Lincoln wanted to talk to Stella when she first moved to Royal Woods? He changed his look and everything. But we told him to be himself. We all thought you should do the same with Wendy." Lori explained.
"What Lor-Lor said. Although we sorta got caught in the moment." Mabel said and the others nodded.
Lincoln raised a brow and said," And what happened to what you guys told me when I wanted to change my look after wanting to introduce myself to Stella?"
Dipper nodded, remembering how the girls told their youngest brother to be himself and change who he was.
Both boys were surprised by this, but they accepted what their elder sister said. And also felt relieved they weren't going to meddle and go overboard. But for Dipper, he felt their advice wasn't warranted.
"thanks for the advice you guys, but no offense, I already have a plan."
"Oh? It wouldn't happen to be an overly complicated plan would it?" Lynn said with crossed arms and a raised brow.
"Pssh, yeah right. Let me just." Dipper said as he took out and unfolded a huge list. "Alright. Step 1: Getting to know each other with playful banter. Banter is like talking smarter."
"Yep, should've known you would go overboard." Lola deadpanned.
"Was there any doubt? I could come up with a less complicated algorithm that's better than that load of malarkey." Lisa said.
"Yeah, that sounds like a dumb idea for poopheads." Mabel agreed.
Leni had a look of confusion and said, "Poopheads? Isn't it sh-"
Lori placed her hand on her sister's mouth and shook her head while everyone else shook their heads.
"Ok back on topic. The endgame here is to ask her to dance. So I don't need any distractions at all. Especially from you guys."
Lori rolled her eyes and said," Fine, but remember what I said, okay?"
The girls left and both boys were left alone. Dipper was thankful for the advice, but he knew his plan was foolproof.
I mean, what could go wrong?
Later, the party had started and the place was packed. Everyone was doing their own thing. Mabel and Lori were standing near the railing on the stairs. Stan walked out from the hallway, wearing some party clothes while humming a tune.
"So can your Great Uncle throw a party or what?" Stan said with a smile.
Mabel nodded with a grin and said," You betcha, Grunkle Stan! At least you didn't make it lame like how Lori tried to make her party."
Lori gave her sister a look and said," You literally had to bring that up Mabes? I also distinctly remember that I decided to be more fun after I realized I was being boring."
"Oh I know, but it's still funny. Hehe." Mabel chuckled.
Before Lori could say anything else, Bobby approached her.
"Hey babe, you wanna dance?" Bobby asked as she held out his hand and gave her a small smile.
Lori blushed and happily said," Of course Boo-Boo Bear!"
As they got on the dance floor, Lincoln and Ronnie-Anne, who were standing nearby, saw them. Ronnie Anne made gagging motion and Lincoln chuckled.
"Sorta reminds me Sadie Hawkins. So, you wanna dance lame-o?" Ronnie asked.
"And just like Sadie Hawkins. I'm not interested, sorry." Lincoln said.
This caused the both of them to laugh, remembering that particular incident. Too bad Gravity Falls didn't have a Gus'. And also the arcade was already closed. Also, if they left, they knew Stan would be annoyed with them and badger them about it. But they then noticed Lee and Nate frantically looking through their pockets and wallet.
"What's wrong you two?" Lincoln asked.
"Little Loud! We just heard your Uncle say that we can only leave if we pay an exit fee of $15!" Nate panicked.
"Dude! We only have 13! We're trapped!" Lee nervously said, after counting the money.
This caused the both of them go to a window and started to pound nervously on the window to get someone's attention. While Lincoln and Ronnie looked on.
Outside, Wendy and Dipper, who didn't notice Lee and Nate, were working the ticket station. Nearby, both Lynn and Lana were near the entrance, due to them acting as bouncers, incase anything happened. Lynn and Lana were also wearing their Hall Monitor sunglasses. Dipper glanced at Wendy and knew it was the time to start his plan.
'Alright, step 1: Casual banter' He thought. "So here's a casual question! Coughs… what's your favorite type of snack food?" He asked Wendy.
Wendy chuckled and said, "Oh, man. I can't just pick one!" As she started to think.
"No way! Mine too!" Dipper over excitedly said.
"Wait, what?" Wendy asked.
"Uh, nothing." Dipper said and then shoved a ton of popcorn into his mouth.
He then noticed something nearby. He looked to see Lynn holding her throat, making choking noises. She then gave him thumbs down, while Lana was giggling a little. And she held her hand on her head and made an 'L'. Dipper rolled his eyes at his sister's antics and ignored them.
Back inside, Mabel and Leni were dancing side by side.
"Like I'm having so much fun sis!" Leni said.
"Same, but Lisa sure is having fun from the looks of it."
Both girls looked at their younger sister, who was busy doing some break dancing moves.
"Word." Lisa said as she crossed her arms, and people around her cheered.
After a moment, Mabel decided to take a break. She then grabbed a water bottle and walked over to some seats and sat down next to two other girls. She then noticed the girl she was sitting next to had a lizard on her shoulder.
"Wow! You got an animal on your body! My sister does that too! I'm Leia, but everyone calls me Mabel."
"Hi, I'm Grenda." Grenda greeted in a deep voice. "And this is Candy."
Candy waved at her, but the most noticeable thing was that she had forks taped to her fingers.
"Why do you have forks taped to your fingers?" Mabel asked.
Candy demonstrated by putting said hand into a bowl of popcorn Grenda had. She pulled it out, and she had popcorn on each finger. "Improvement of human being."
Grenda's lizard then ate some popcorn, and the two girls laughed.
"My sister Lisa would be interested in that. She into all type of sciency things."
"How many siblings do you have?" Grenda asked.
"11 sisters, but my baby sister, Lily, stayed home back in Michigan with our parents. And I have two brothers as well."
"Awesome! I'm an only child. But I always wanted siblings." Grenda said.
"It must be great to have them all." Candy said.
"I think I found my people." Mabel cheerfully said.
Back with Soos and Luna, Soos was making an announcement.
"Remember dudes, whoever um… party hardies the most." Soos looked at Luna, who gave him thumbs up and he continued. "Gets the party crown! Most applause at the end of the night wins!" Soos said as he held up said crown.
"So get ready to party rock in the house tonight, dudes!" Luna said. [1]
Everyone looked interested; one of them was a girl that looked to be the same age as Dipper and Mabel. She also wore designer clothes and had an air of superiority to her.
She walked up to the DJ booth and said," Party crown? I'll take that, thank you very much."
"Who's that?" Mabel asked.
"The most popular girl in town, Pacifica Northwest." Candy explained.
"I always feel bad about myself around her." Grenda said.
"Sorry dudette. But you gotta dance the night away and show your party spirit. In order to win." Luna said.
Pacifica laughed, grabbed a microphone and said," Honestly, who's gonna compete against me? Fork girl? Lizard lady?" She finished with a laugh, along with her two friends.
Candy and Grenda held each other in comfort, while Mabel narrowed her eyes.
She walked up to the booth and said," Hey, I'll compete!" She then looked at Pacifica, and held out her hand. "I'm Leia, but I prefer to be called Mabel."
Pacifica looked at the hand, unimpressed and said," That sounds like a fat old lady's name."
Mabel wasn't deterred or seemed bothered by the insult and said," I'll take that as a compliment."
Lola approached and said," I'm competing as well." She looked at Pacifica and said. "Lola Loud, renowned pageant winner. And also the winner of this contest."
Pacifica smirked and said," Please, I've competed and won the pageants I competed in. You won little baby pageants. Also I have heard of you, you lost your first regional. But, may the best partier win." She said and walked off with her friends.
Lola jaw dropped, but she then narrowed her eyes at the girl. Vowing vengeance upon her.
Luna walked over to her sisters, and said," Be careful you guys that Pacifica chick looks like bad news."
"Don't worry Luna, she should be careful, because I'm not taking any prisoners."
Leia waved her sister off and said," No problemo Lunes. Like our family motto says 'Loud's never quit.' Besides, she's going down."
Back outside, Wendy and Lucas were still outside handing out tickets but Wendy soon looked through the window.
"Whoa! Sounds like the party's getting nuts."
"Let the battle for the party crown begin! Leia comes out strong! Watch out, Pacifica!" Soos said.
"I gotta get in there! Cover for me?" Wendy asked Dipper.
"Umm… well I, um-"
Wendy smiled and said," Thanks, man!" She said and ran inside.
Dipper groaned in frustration at his plan having a setback but he felt a tapping on shoulder and looked to see Lynn.
"I'll cover for ya, Dip-Drip. Go and woo here." Lynn said.
Dipper gave his sister a nod in thanks, and walked inside. He saw Wendy lounging nearby and walked up to her.
"Good news, Wendy! Lynn is covering for me at the concessions."
"That's awesome. You can hang out with me and Robbie." Wendy said, and Dipper noticed the other teen with them. "Robbie, you remember Dipper, from the convenience store?"
Robbie didn't seem to recall or care and said," Uh, no. Yo, Wendy, check out my new guitar." He said as he pulled it out and played it.
"Whoa, cool!" Wendy said impressed.
Dipper gasped and knew this wasn't going to work out liked he planned. He knew he needed help with getting rid of Robbie. He looked around for Lincoln, and he soon found him. He held back an amused chuckle, due to Lincoln hanging out with Ronnie Anne. Even though Lincoln denied he had feelings for the Latina, Dipper was rooting for his one year younger brother. He did think about asking the girls for help. But even he knew they would complicate things.
He thought he was going to be stuck, but he then had an idea.
Dipper found himself back in Stan's office, and he allowed himself to be copied by the copier machine. Once it was done, he got up off of the copier, and waited for the paper to come out. Once it did, it fell to the ground, and a printed picture of Dipper's back was shown. After a moment, the clone become solid and got up. The clone was an exact copy of dipper, the most noticeable thing was that he seemed to be of a pal. And also for some reason, his hat didn't have the blue pine tree on it, but it was blank.
"Whoa… I have a really big head." The original Dipper mused aloud.
Both Dipper's looked at each other, both silent, as they both looked at each other.
"So, uh… chuckles… sorry, you first. Stop copying me!" Both Dipper's said at once and laughed. And both slapped each other's knee, except the clone hit his arm on a nearby safe.
"Ow, ow! Funny bone."
Lucas then wrote #2 on the clones hat with a marker, and said," I will call you: Number 2. Or maybe I can use my nickname, you can use our real name."
"Hmm, good idea. But, how about a name we've always thought about."
"Tyrone." They both said.
"Okay, Tyrone. Let's get down to business. We need a plan to get Robbie away from Wendy. So I can ask her to dance."
"I know the plan, buddy." Tyrone said as he pulled out an identical plan that Dipper also pulled out.
Lucas then realized something, he then back away from Tyrone and said," Hey, we're not gonna get jealous and turn on each other like the clones in the movies, are we?"
"Dipper, please. This you you're talking about. Plus, hey! You can always just disintegrate me with water.
"Yeah… Yeah!" They both said as they tapped each other's heads.
"So the plan is to steal Robbie's bike, and get him to leave."
Tyrone then realized something and said," Hang on, I just thought of something. What if Robbie catches me? Or worse, Lynn or Lana try and get me. You know how they acted when they became hall monitors. Not to mention Lynn's athleticism."
The original Dipper nodded, it was one thing for the twins to practice their hall monitor duties at home. But it was another thing to deal with Lynn's power trip as a Hall Monitor at school.
"Dang' it, you have a good point. Alright then, we'll need some help. And I'm not talking about our other siblings." Dipper said and the both of them looked at the copier.
Later, the contest was in full swing, and Pacifica was singing a song.
"Always means forever. ALWAAAAYSS!" Once she got to the high note, she somehow broke a plastic cup. "Forever." She finished and everyone cheered for her.
She then approached Mabel and Lola and said," Try and top that!"
Lola growled and said," If I didn't want to be disqualified, I would tear her limb from limb."
"That's how I feel when I see her, and when she insults me. I WANNA MAKE HER FEEL PAIN!" Grenda said.
Lola then got on stage; she cleared her throat, and sang:
It is hard to make looking this good look easy
And it takes a few mistakes to be just right
Looking perfect is a gift
When I feel meh
A little lip gloss keeps me going all day long
When my high heels hit the floor
The applause becomes a roar
And I hold the last note long
That's my kind of song
My kind!
Lola finished with a bow, and everyone cheered. She then looked at Pacifica and flipped her hair. Which made her seething.
"Wasn't that the song I told you that I thought I heard you sing?" Luna asked.
"It was, I needed something quick and memorable. Knock that stuck up princess, Mabes." Lola said the last part to Mabel, who nodded.
"Isn't it ironic?" Luna amusingly said to Soos. [2]
"What is?" Soos asked, not getting it.
"Soos! Give me the 80s-ist, crowd pleasing-ist, rock ballad-y-ist song you got!" Leia requested.
Soos nodded and played the song 'Un-Believing'.
"Excellent. Don't start UN-Believing! Never don't not feel your feelings!" Mabel sang as the crowd cheered. "I'M GONNA DO A FLIP!" She did so, but she ended up landing on her face, but she wasn't deterred. "THAT WAS FOR YOU GUYS!" This caused everyone to cheer more.
Dipper then approached the DJ booth, and whispered something into Soos's ear.
"Dudes, would the owner of a silver and red dirt bike please report outside. It is being stolen right now." Soos said into the microphone.
"Wait, WHAT?!" Robbie yelled, realizing it was his bike.
He ran to the window, and saw two more clones of Dipper, which had the numbers 3 and 4 on their hats. They were riding the bike away from the shack and laughing. Robbie ran out of the shack, in pursuit. Lynn saw this and growled.
She was just about to sprint off after them. But another clone, who had the #5 on his hat ran past her.
"Hey Lynn! First one to run 3 laps around the shack wins! Or are you too chicken and a loser to do it?" He goaded.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Lynn yelled in anger and ran off after the clone of her brother. Both to race and beat him, and to probably get revenge for calling her both a chicken and a loser.
Lana was about to stop them, but Tyrone tapped her on the shoulder. Lana turned around, and she was surprised and confused that her brother was there.
"Weren't you just-"
"Lana look, it's a mud puddle!" Tyrone said.
Lana turned around and gasped at seeing a mud puddle, which was made by Tyrone, nearby.
"Alright!" Lana said, forgetting her previous confusion and jumping in.
Back inside, Wendy saw all of this, and it was also shown the original Dipper was sitting near her.
"Oh, tough break. I wonder who those guys are, who aren't me, because I'm right here."
"Now we're gonna bring it down for a minute. Ladies, dudes, now's the time." Soos said, as he played a slow song, and various couples started to slow dance with each other. This would include Lori and Bobby. With Lori resting her head on Bobby's chest and Bobby laid his head on top of Lori's head. Leni, who was nearby, squealed at how cute it was, and took a couple of pictures.
"Oh snap, I love this song." Wendy said as she swayed to the music.
Mabel then ran over to her twin and said," Hey goofus, now's your chance to ask Wen-"
Before she could continue, Dipper covered his twin's mouth and they moved away. So Wendy wouldn't be able to hear them talk. Mabel then continued," Now's your chance to ask Wendy to dance! C'mon! Go!"
"Okay, okay." Dipper said, and he was about to go, but he chickened out. "Uh, I'll be right back!" He said as he took off somewhere.
Later, he, Tyrone and #4, who looked a bit ruffed up. This was due to Lynn, after she beat him in the short race. Had proceeded to ruff him up a little as payback for calling her both a 'chicken' and 'loser'. Were all pacing around in the attic. After the original Dipper explained his dilemma, they all got to thinking.
"Oh I agree. You can't just go an DANCE with her." Tyrone agreed.
"Yep, bad, very bad idea." #4 agreed.
"The dance floor is a minefield you guys!" Dipper said. "There are just too many variables. We need help."
"How about we ask Lincoln?" #4 suggested.
Tyrone chuckled and said," Normally yes, but we don't want to distract him from Ronnie Anne."
Dipper snorted as well and said," Alright, let's get to work."
Later, Dipper had made six more clones of himself, which also included a paper-jam clone, who was wrinkled and spoke in gibberish. And they all, minus Paper-Jam Dipper got to work. They distracted Soos with a laser dot, they got Stan to follow and try to catch some money. Fixed some possible issues that could ruin the dance floor. And also distracted their siblings, just in case they tried anything.
After that, one of the clones run a bell, which signaled that it was time.
"There's your cue. It's the perfect moment to ask Wendy to dance. Good luck, me!"
"I don't need luck. I have a plan." Dipper said and proceeded to walk back downstairs. He was already in the hallway, but stopped and yelped. Due to seeing Wendy standing near the bathroom.
"Oh, hey man. What's up?" Wendy said, due to noticing him.
"W-what are you doing here? I mean, wouldn't you rather be out on the dance floor. Uh, in like exactly 42 seconds?" He said, as he looked at his watch.
"I'm just waiting for the bathroom." Wendy said, not noticing what else he said.
"Um, uh, okay." Dipper said, as he tried not to freak out.
"So hey, let's say everyone at this party gets stuck on a desert island. Who do you think the leader would be?"
Lucas nervously chuckled and said," Definitely not Lori. She has this whole, Commando or Drill Instructor routine when she's in charge."
Wendy chuckled and said," Can't be any worse than my dad when he gets crossed or serious. But I would go with that lunatic." She said, as she pointed to a man who was dancing and sweating profusely.
Dipper laughed and said," I'd probably got with Stretch over there. Uh… because tall people can reach coconuts?" He said, as he pointed at a tall man who was doing the moonwalk.
Wendy laughed and said," Speaking of tall, wanna see something?" She then pulled out her wallet, and she showed Dipper a picture of her brothers. "These are my brothers, and I'm." She then moved her thumb, which showed Wendy. She looked completely different and not like what she looked like right now.
Dipper laughed and said," Ha, you were a freak!" He then slapped his hand over his mouth, due to realizing what he just said.
"Yep." Wendy said, not feeling hurt or angry at the comment.
"You know, kids used to make fun of my birthmark before I started hiding it all the time. Not to mention when my sisters got involved. That was not pretty." He said the last part with a wince. He was glad they stood up for him, but the end results were not pretty.
"Birthmark?" Wendy asked, interested.
Dipper realized what he said and tried to deflect," "Uh, no! It's nothing! I-I was… why did I say that?"
"No way, dude! Now you have to show me! Show me, show me!"
Dipper sighed, knowing he couldn't get out of this. He then took off his hat, and moved the hair from his forehead. It was revealed that he had birthmark on his forehead that looked like the constellation, The Big Dipper.
"The Big Dipper! That's how you got your nickname! I thought your parents just hated you or maybe one of your siblings came up with it. But wait, where did Mabel get her nickname then? Cause I know you mentioned your real name is Lucas, and her's is Leia."
"Oh that, Mabel is her middle name. Our mom got the name from her grandmother or our great-grandmother. Once Mabel found out about it, she wanted to be called that. It makes her feel unique and on some occasions, likes to confuse people for the fun of it." Dipper said and they both chuckled.
"Huh, that's pretty interesting dude. But hey, I guess with your birthmark and with I used to look. I guess we're both freaks." Wendy said and they laughed.
They stopped, due to the bathroom door opening, which an angry Pacifica walked out. "Wait here?" Wendy said and went to the bathroom.
"Of course." He said.
"Wow, can't believe you pulled that off." Lincoln congratulated as he walked over to his brother. "I guess you didn't need your plan."
"Thanks Linc, I guess, you and the girls were right about just talking to her."
Before Lincoln could say anything, he heard a voice behind him.
"Hey, what are you doing? Number 10 has been distracting Soos for 15 minutes; he'll get tired of that dot eventually!" Tyrone said, as he and the other clones approached.
Lincoln's jaw dropped and said," Whoa… that's both crazy and cool at the same time. Wait a minute, how come you get to clone yourself and not me?"
"We'll talk about that later, bro. But you guys won't believe this! I bumped into Wendy accidentally and things are actually going great!"
"That's nice, but not the plan. Do we have to remind you?" Tyrone said, and him and the clones proceeded to read from their lists.
"Oh man, you guys sound crazy." The original Dipper said.
"Yeah… definitely weird. Also guys, didn't you hear what he said. Everything is going good. So, whatever you guys got planned, is not necessary." Lincoln tried to reason.
The clones gasped with number #5 saying," What? That's crazy! C'mon Linc, you always supported us. But if that Dipper isn't going to dance with Wendy, maybe one of us should."
Lincoln gulped and said to his real brother," It's the 'turning against each other' phase of cloning, isn't it?"
"Yep."
The clones soon jumped Dipper and Lincoln, dragged them away and proceeded to throw them into a closet.
"No, wait!" Dipper said, as he tried to get out, but the clones closed the door. "Ah, oh no! We can't breathe in here!"
"Ack! I can see the light!" Lincoln said with a fake cough.
"Yes you can! Plus there are snacks and a coloring book in there for you both!"
Both brothers sighed irritably, but Lincoln then thought of something. He then reached into his pocket and found his phone.
"Can't believe they forgot this." He said and made a call.
Outside, the clones were in the middle of debating of who would dance with Wendy.
"Look, I think due to me being around the longest, I should be the one to dance with Wendy. Not with the one who's been around the shortest. Or who's been here the second longest. I mean, how does that make sense?"
"Y'know what does, us beating you evil clones up."
"Yeah it does… wait what?" Tyrone said.
The clones turned around and gulped, due to seeing Lori, Leni, Luan, Lynn, Lana, Lisa and Lucy. As well as Ronnie Anne behind them.
The clones gulped and then heard the door open. They saw the original Dipper and Lincoln had broken out.
"Wow, you weren't kidding about this, Linc." Ronnie Anne said shocked.
Lisa readjusted her glasses and said," This is beyond fascinating. I need one to study."
"Like, when did we get more siblings that look like Dippy?" Leni asked confused.
"Okay, you two literally have got some explaining to do." Lori said.
"I know, but we got to stop the other me's first." Dipper said.
The group all let out a battle cry and they started to fight. Luckily, due to some of the people fighting being older and able to fight more, it was going in the non-clone favor. Until it all came to ahead, due to Dipper popping a party popper, due to two clones about to gang up on him. The smoke from the popper, caused a sprinkler to go off and the clones started to melt.
Once they all melted, everyone stood in shock.
"So much for studying them." Lisa said.
Leni sniffed and said," I wish I got to know my new siblings."
"I can provide a burial and service for them." Lucy supplied.
"That was crazy." Ronnie Anne said.
"Hey guys, we got ourselves one more." Lynn said, as she held Tyrone to the ground.
"Okay ow, ow! Too hard Lynn!" Tyrone said in pain.
With Mabel, she, Lola and Pacifica were waiting for Soos, who was going to tell everyone the results.
"Alright dudes! It's time for the v-vote! For the bestowing of the party crown!" Soos said and played an explosion on the keyboard.
"Pacifica, I just wanna say that whoever wins, it's been a super fun party." Mabel said cheerfully.
"Tsk. Awww, it thinks it's gonna win. Hey, did you hear that? People clapping for the weird girl? Or the baby pageant girl. Yeah, me neither." Pacifica sarcastically said.
"I want to slap that smug grin off her face." Lola grumbled.
Back with the group, Lynn got Tyrone up and she was still holding him.
"So, what should we do with this one?" Lynn asked.
"Uh, I hope not to be experimented on by Lisa." Tyrone said, as he gulped, due to noticing the look Lisa was giving him.
Lori narrowed her eyes at the original Dipper and said," Y'know, none of this crap would've literally happened if you just talked to Wendy like a normal person."
"Lori, it's okay, I mean yeah, Dipper should've. But how did you react or act around your first major crush?" Lincoln asked.
Lori was about to retort, but she remembered how she made a fool out of herself with her first crush. And also tried to impress him and other things.
"Ugh fine, you have a point. But you still need to ask her to dance like a normal person."
Ronnie Anne, who near the entrance, winced a little," Yeah about that, that'll be a little hard."
Dipper and other others looked out, and saw Wendy hanging out with a now returned Robbie. And they were talking and laughing about something.
"Ouch, looks like Robbie robbed your chance there Dip. Haha…" Luan tried to joke, but everyone was glaring at her.
"Right, too soon."
Both Dipper and Tyrone looked down sadly, with Lynn also letting Tyrone go.
"Well, I guess we blew it." They both said.
"Sorry uh… guys, but you did try." Lincoln said.
"Yeah, Linc's right. You wanna grab a couple of sodas or something?" Tyrone asked.
"Sure." Dipper said and they walked away.
This left the others by themselves.
"Would anyone like to help me gather samples of the other clones remains?" Lisa asked.
Everyone looked at her weirdly.
Back with the contest, Soos and Luna were getting for the final results.
"Let the party crown voting commence!" Soos announced and he played a bell sound.
"Alright dudes, show your support with applause. First up, is Lola."
A lot of the crowd applauded loudly, and Lola bowed with a smile.
"Now for Mabel."
More people applauded louder for Mabel than Lola. Mabel gasped in happiness, while Lola frowned and growled.
"Wow, things are heating up in here, dudes. Now for Pacifica." Luna said.
People applauded, but not the same amount as Mabel. Pacifica glared at them, which caused more people to applaud.
"Uh-oh a tie! This has like, never happened before." Soos said.
Pacifica looked around and saw Old Man McGucket sleeping on a bench. She went over to him and handed him a dollar. This caused McGucket to clap.
"And we have a winner! It's Pacifica." Soos said.
"What?!" Lola yelled with a growl, but she was held back by Luna, who knew she was going to try something.
"Don't worry Lole's, next time we'll have rules to make it fairer." Luna said. She then gave Mabel a sympathetic look. "Sorry Mabes."
Mabel smiled sadly and said," it's okay Lune's."
After Soos gave her the crown, Pacifica took the microphone and said," Thank you, Jorge. Thank you everyone! Everyone come to the after-party at my parent's boat! Woo-hoo!"
The crowd then lifted her into the air and chanted her name.
Mabel then looked at Candy and Grenda and said," Sorry I let you guys down. I understand if you wanna leave."
"But then, we will miss the sleepover." Candy said.
"The what?" Mabel asked.
"We want to call our moms and see if we can sleep over here with you. You're like, a total rock star!" Grenda said.
Candy pulled out a magazine out of her bag and said," I have magazine boys."
"Really? You guys!" Mabel happily said.
"Maybe we don't have as many friends as Pacifica, but we have each other, and that is pretty good I think." Candy said.
Mabel grinned and looked at Soos and Luna and said," Soos, Luna! Play another song! This thing's going all night!"
"You got it sis! Soos, hit it!" Luna said.
"I gotcha." Soos said and played a song.
The three girls then started to dance to the song. Lola, who was watching this, shrugged and started to dance as well.
Even though she didn't win, she remembered how she didn't win the Regional Pageant. But she tried to her hardest. And had both had fun and learned some things. And she had fun with the competition, and she didn't mind, well she did. But not as much.
Outside on the roof, Dipper and Tyrone were sitting down and they each got a soda.
"Some night, huh?" Tyrone said.
A shooting star passes by and the both of them opened their cans.
"You think we even have a chance with Wendy? I mean she's 15, we're 12." Dipper said.
"I don't know man, I hope so, but we're making zero progress the way we're doin' it. The only good conversation you had with her is when you didn't do anything in that list-stuff." Tyrone said.
"I know, our siblings were right. I should've just went up and talked to her. And be myself. I do get in my own way."
The both of them toasted with their drinks and drank some soda.
Tyrone's stomach grumbled, he looked down and saw that he was melting from inside his stomach. "Uh oh."
"Tyrone!" Dipper cried in shock.
"it's ok dude, I had a good run." Tyrone assured. "Remember what we talked about."
"Uh-uh, of course." Dipper said with a nod.
"Hey, and quit being a such a wimp around Wendy okay? For my sake..." He said and melted completely.
"Tyrone! You were the only one who understood." Dipper said, as he poured some soda on the Tyrone puddle. And then took a long sip.
After that, he got down and walked to the front of the shack. He looked through the window. Stan was counting money, Soos and Luna were playing music on the turnstile and guitar, respectively. The others were dancing or just hanging around. While Wendy was leaning against a wall, nodding her head to the beat. Dipper was about to go in, but he took out his list, tore it to pieces and then went in the shack to party along with everyone.
