Ok, we all know Gideon is villain. That's practically the only purpose he serves. But, let's look at his actions. Being on the wheel (triangle thing is practically without a doubt him), he obviously serves some importance.

SPOILERS BELOW

G ideon wants the mystery shack, to get the journal. But if he had gotten all three journals, what would he do? The most likely thing is he would use the machine. But why? Most likely because Gideon thinks it will help him take over the world, being the typical bad guy. But, here's my personal theory. I believe he may be possessed by something (from birth) that requires him to control it. (Just gonna call it "Dark Gideon") He wanted to gather the journals; only to see if he could get rid of Dark Gideon (journals have all that mysterious stuff) and he actually didn't want to build the doomsday device. This could also mean Bill isn't actually the ultimate villain, Dark Gideon is.

There are probably a ton of holes in this theory; sorry, I can't remember all the things Gideon has done, but I thought I'd try!
