Double Dipper

"Double Dipper" is the seventh episode in Season 1 of Gravity Falls. It debuted on August 10, 2012.

Overview
When Stan throws a big weekend party to promote the Mystery Shack, Dipper uses an off-kilter copy machine to make clones of himself so he can impress Wendy. Meanwhile, Mabel stands up for her two friends and fights for the Party Queen title in their honor, instead of having the popular girl and her group win.

Synopsis (Please edit)
Dipper has a can of silly string and says that he doesn't feel so good. He shoots (but from the side view it looks like he's hurling it out) the silly string in Mabel's face. Mabel asks what Grunkle Stan fed them and then shoots hers in Dipper's face. Wendy says something terrible has happened and they both pause. She shoots silly string at them. Stan says that nobody should play with any more party supplies. Soos wonders who's birthday it is and Stan replies no one and that if kids want fun, "He'll smother 'em with fun." Dipper gets a cup and pours his drink in while saying, "Comments like that make kids don't want to come to the Mystery Shack." Stan tells Dipper and Mabel to copy the posters. Once they go in, they see an old machine and big flies that Mabel thinks are butterflies. Dipper turns it on and accidentally puts his hand on the machine. He takes it off, and a piece of paper comes out with Dipper's arm on it. The arm gets out of the paper, heading for Dipper and Mabel. Dipper says, "Watch out, Mabel!" and throws water at the arm and it dissolves. Dipper says that he thinks the machine can copy human beings! And Mabel replies, "Do you know what this means?" And there is a sudden pause. Finally, Mabel shoots the Silly String in his face again. Later, Dipper and Mabel are in the attic when Dipper talks to her about his plan to dance with Wendy. At the party, Dipper and Wendy are working together. Wendy sneaks away and joins the party. Dipper tries to sneak away, but Grunkle Stan tells him he can go. Dipper goes and makes a copy of himself to work, and calls him Number 2. Number 2 says, "Definitely not!" Dipper decides to name him Tyrone. Tyrone works while Dipper goes into the party. He sees Wendy talking to Robbie, and has a fantasy of Wendy and Robbie dancing, then Wendy punches Dipper, knocking him back. Dipper and Tyrone decide to make more clones to drive Robbie away. Later Dipper needs to improve his plan, and create more clones.
