(Author's P.O.V.)

The twins were up early today and walked to Tiffany's room. They opened the door and saw her starting to wake up, rubbing her tired eyes. "Morning you guys..why're up so early?" She asked, yawning. "Tiffany, you have to come and see what we found! It'll blow. Your. Mind." Mabel dramatically said. "Well, it better blow my mind. I have to get ready for work again." She stood up from her bed and followed the twins down the hall to a closet. She looked inside and saw a box with fireworks. "Whoa, I didn't know dad had these and I've been living here for my whole life." She grabbed a sparkler from the box. "Guys, guys, we're all thinking it," "Crazy rooftop fireworks party!" The twins yelled. "Oh no you three don't!" Stan was now in front of them with his red bath robe on. "There is no way you three are going to set off those dangerous illegal fireworks," he paused. "without me." The family took the fireworks outside and onto the rooftop. Stan lit up a firework for Mabel. "Here you go, sweetie. Blow something up for your Grunkle," "I am the god of destruction!!" She pointed the firework at the sky as it fired itself, displaying colors in the sky. The two police men, Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durlan (A/n: I'm sorry if I don't get the names right.) "Hold on a minute, do you have a permit for those?" Blubs questioned. "Uh, do you have a permit for being totally lame?" We all laughed after Stan had said that. Even the cops chuckled. "Well I can't argue with that, carry on." They left. "But seriously though, we should probably clean this up," I looked at some of the burning parts around the shack. "With water balloons?" Mabel asked. "I don't see why not," Stan shrugged his shoulders as the twins and Tiffany grinned and smiled. The family went down and filled up balloons with water. They went outside and started to throw them at each other with Stan drinking Pitt Cola. "To Grunkle Stan! Not just a great uncle," Mabel said. "The greatest uncle!" Dipper added. "And a great father!" They all threw water balloons at Stan. "Alright, alright, I gotta tell you: it's unnatural for siblings to get along as well as you do." Stan chuckled. "Haha! Don't worry, we still have plently of summer left to drive each other crazy!" Mabel shook her brother violently, Dipper pushed a water balloon and her and it splashed on her face. "Heh, yeah, plenty of summer." He mumbled. "Kids, there's something I..something I should tell you. It's um..well it's complicated.." Stan stuttered. "I'm gonna go refresh my soda," he walked away. "Whoa, what was that about?" Dipper questioned. "I don't know, really." Tiffany crossed her arms. Suddenly, helicopters and men surrounded the three. "Kids secure!" One said. More of them crashed into the windows and explored the shack. Tiffany saw her uncle being bent over a car and being handcuffed. "Let go of my dad, now!" Tiffany demanded. "I don't understand!" Then, Agent Trigger and Agent Powers appeared. "The government guys? I thought you two got eaten by zombies." Dipper said, surprised. "We survived. Barely," Trigger spoke. "I used Trigger as a human shield; he cried like a baby." Powers added. Trigger seemed embarrassed. Powers showed Stan a video of a man in a suit, taking toxic waste. "Wait, you think that's me?" Stan denied. Tiffany got nervous and bit her bottom lip. "Don't play dumb with us, Pines." "B-but I am dumb! Last night I was restocking the gift shop, I swear!" The military men took the old man away. "Wait, Grunkle Stan! You got the wrong guy! Sure, our Grunkle will shoplift the occasional tangerine but he's not some evil super villain." Mabel defended. "Listen kids, we've been watching your family all summer and we've seen some disturbing things, but nothing as dangerous to what your uncle is hiding. Inside this shack is a doomsday device." He told them. He looked at Tiffany. "And you're part of his diabolical plan," he pointed towards her. "Excuse me? Pardon me, but I have nothing to do with whatever you think my father is planning." She almost exclaimed. "Trigger, you take the children, I'll deal with the old man. Sorry to break it to you kids but you don't know your uncle at all."

(Dipper's P.O.V.)

The government guy locked us in the car, driving us somewhere from the shack. Tiffany was looking out the window and Mabel...I don't even want to know what she was doing with her sweater. He was talking to Agent Powers. After he was done, Mabel gasped. "What're you gonna do to us?!" "We'll be taking you to child services," Mabel booed. "In the meantime, enjoy some mindless reality T.V. designed to pacify you and stop asking questions." He put on Justin Ker'Prank. "I'm about to make the incision.." A surgeon was about to do a surgery when Justin popped out from a potted plant. "Dipper, this is crazy!" Mabel whispered to me. "There's no way Stan was stealing hazardous waste. We gotta clear his name," Mabel continued. "But how are we going to get out?" Tiffany whispered back. "And how are we gonna clear his name?" She added. I looked around the car and saw a camera. "Wait a minute, the security tapes. Didn't Stan say he was restocking the gift shop last night? If we can get those tapes, then we can prove him innocent." I said. "We just need to think of a way out.." Mabel looked at the lock on the door, rubbing her chin. Then, a truck came by. Mabel wrote something and some reason the trucker rammed into our car. We tumbled off the hill and finally landed safely and unharmed. We got out while the agent was stuck inside by a branch. "Nice job, Mabel! I don't even know what you did but whatever!" Tiffany threw her arms over me and Mabel. I heard the agent trying to request for back up, so I took his ear piece out and smashed it into pieces. "C'mon you guys, we're gonna clear our Grunkle's name." Mabel said, walking off with Tiffany. I followed behind. "Oh, you poor kids, do you really think your uncle and dad's innocent? I've seen it all before: false names, double lives, one minute they're playing with water balloons the next they're building doomsday devices. You're uncle scammed the whole word, you're really gonna let him scam you, too?" I stopped as he was talking to me. He didn't know what he was talking about. "You..you don't know what you're talking about." I said to him and walked away. I caught up with Mabel and Tiffany.
