So I was on chat and I realized that I had a million things to complain about. Please don't sue me, CinemaSins!

1. Episode is only forty five minutes long and has way too much to do. It should be three forty-five minute long episodes. Heck, they should have rearranged the whole season to accommodate this. Maybe introduce Ford in the first few episodes and have the last six episodes dedicated to wrapping things up. It feels like the writers just went in and were like "crap, we only have one episode left to explain all this?!" Pretty much all of my problems with this episode stems out of this.

2. Episode that is forty five minutes long and has way to much to do spends the first half building robot that does not end up doing anything to further the plot. They could have just walked to the Fearamid and it would have had the same effect. Heck, they had Celestiabellebethabelle RIGHT THERE! Why not just tear off some hair and attach it to everyone? Then attach it to a gun (or a gun-sword) and bye-bye, Bill.

3. The scenes with Bill and Ford were great and needed way more time. The episode would have been much better if it were just Bill and Ford and THEN the rest of the gang show up. We really don't need an explanation as to how they got there. We can figure that out ourselves.

4. The fact that a robot they built out of junkyard material can defeat huge demons with infinite power in less than three minutes.

5. How does Bill not win here? Why can't he outrun Dipper and Mabel? Why does it take him so much time to catch them and Stan and Ford can switch their three layers of clothing in the time he's gone? Once they're out of the Mystery Shack, why doesn't Bill just pull all the air out of their vicinity and suffocate them? He can do that, right? He could totally do that.

6. The switcheroo thing is cheating and I shouldn't have to explain why.

7. Why does writing "Stanley Pines" on the memory gun erase Bill? Why don't they write "Bill Cipher"?

8. The fact that Stan's amnesia was cured in under five minutes. I mean, COME ON! The memory gun isn't worth crap.

9. Okay, fine, I can accept that the memory gun may not be worth crap, but what I CAN'T accept is that Stan's memory returning does not also bring back Bill. I mean, by all rules of logic, it should, right? And wouldn't that be such an AWESOME conflict???

10. Also, if Ford is so smart, he shouldn't immediately give up hope that Stan would get his memory back. He has ZERO evidence to indicate that the effects are permanent.

11. BILL DIED NOOOOOOO

12. WE GOT ZERO INFORMATION ON WHAT FORD WAS DOING IN THE PORTAL FOR THIRTY DANG YEARS.

13. The Bill circle thing, and again, I shouldn't have to explain why.

14. Stan threatens the bus driver to let Waddles ride, but... Mabel literally said less than a minute ago that it was their PARENTS that wouldn't let Waddles come home with them. Does Stan plan to drive over to Piedmont and threaten them, too?

15. The bus' destination says "CALIFORNIA". California's a big state. Is the bus just going to drop Dipper and Mabel off at the border and make them walk from there?

16. Stan and Ford make up under pressure and then spend the next few months on a boat together. I see nothing that could possibly go wrong with this!

17. Episode does not feature Xyler, Craz or Garnet.

Have anything else wrong with this episode? Have an objection to one of my problems? Just think I'm a jerk? Reply! Please reply! I spent twenty minutes on this.
