Dipper and Mabel, annoyed by their uncle's snoring (Stan had fallen asleep in the chair), decided to get some rest and headed up to their room. They both snuggled under their blankets and Mabel did her traditional 'turning out the lights with a grappling hook.' Her aim was getting better and she rarely missed the light switch.

As the twins drifted off to sleep, a triangular figure slipped through the window. It shrank down and the medallion started to glow beneath Dipper's pillow as the figure neared it. The triangle was absorbed by the medallion. A bright flash went off and then the room was dark once more.

The next morning, Dipper headed out to Wendy's house after Mabel failed once more to get answers out of him. The medallion was around his neck. Dipper decided he wanted to talk to Wendy about it; after all, she had said she would always believe him.

Dipper walked up to Wendy's door and knocked. One of her brother's answered the door.

"I'm here to see Wendy." Dipper said.

The brother walked away for a second and then returned with his sister.

"Hey Dipper! C'mon in!" She said.

Wendy led Dipper to her bedroom. The TV was already on and tuned to a movie channel. A big bowl of buttery popcorn sat on Wendy's night stand alog with two glasses of water.

"Have a seat man." Wendy said, flopping on her bed.

Dipper sat besides her.

"That's wicked cool dude." Wendy said, motioning to Dipper's medallion as she chewed a piece of popcorn.

"Thanks. I brought it because I wanted to talk to you about it." Dipper admitted.

Wendy signaled him to continue with his story.

"You see, I found this when I was out adventuring with Mabel. I feel like it's connected to this demon known as Bill Cipher." He said.

Dipper pulled the Journal from his vest and flipped to a page with Bill. Wendy took the book and examined it.

Dipper explained the whole possesion incident to Wendy. She nodded occasionally and listened closely to everything he said. She believed every word.

"So that's why I think this is connected to Bill." Dipper said. "Occasionally I say, think, or do things I didn't want to and I can't help it. It's almost like I'm possessed again, but this time I'm still in my body."

"That is strange... I would get rid of that if I were you Dipper." Wendy said.

"Anything you want Red." Dipper answered smugly.

His eyes widened, realizing it had just happened again. Wendy took the medallion from Dipper and set it on her night stand.

"Let's leave this else where for now." She said, smiling.

Dipper nodded and the two of them engaged themselves in more of the terrible movies that Gravity Falls had to offer.

Mabel was back at the shack, pacing in the living room. Soos was sitting in a chair, watching her.

"Hey girl dude, aren't you kinda like, I don't know, obsessing over this too much?" Soos asked.

"No way!" Mabel replied, still pacing.

"Dude, Dipper isn't going to tell you unless he wants to."

"Quiet Soos I'm planning here."

Soos quieted and continued to watch Mabel's pacing.

"You could always tickle him until he tells you." Soos suggested.

"Soos you're a genius! It's perfectly harmless too! This is the perfect way to get Dipper to tell me what happened with Wendy! And if he doesn't, well, let's not go down THAT road yet," Mabel said.

"I'm getting a little bit of a red flag here, BUT LET'S DO IT ANYWAY!" Soos yelled.

"Tickle Attack! Tickle Attack!" The two of them chanted as they headed out of the room.

They passed by Stan, who watched them.

"Yup. Just ignore it Stan." He said.
