Is it something like Bill pretending to be Soos?

the lebam theory comes in many forms, theres the silly one where the twins are actually tripplets that is really too silly to be taken seriously, there is also a theory that she is a mirror double created around the episode where lary king's head told her that they were nature's strongest animals

and there is a theory that i like to think is the most realistic out of the three which is that Lebam is a doppleganger, lebam is a dark copy of mabel, there were facts to support the theory which were in the episode with sevral times, mabel was too fast getting up the stairs and the fact that she said they were asleep when they wernt, there is also the blank sweater but i suggest actually looking up the doppleganger theory because it was very well put together.

personally, given the myths surrounding dopplegangers, it would be interesting but plot-wise im still not sure, i think the lebam theory is interesting especially since this is an animated series, nothing is put in for laughs, everything is there for a reason and there arnt really any animation errors, especially since this show relys on it's subtlty.

i like to think that there were always important clues hidden around that we havnt caught yet, soos mabel and dippers symbols seemed too easy you start to wonder if the answers were really always there and the joke's on us for not figuring them out sooner, also autocorrect is a pain, i know.
