"Mabel's Guide to Dating" is the seventh animated short of Gravity Falls to air between Season 1 and Season 2.
Overview
Mabel gives her thoughts on dating and puts her dating quiz to the test with three of Gravity Falls’ most eligible bachelors – Grunkle Stan, Dipper and Soos.[1]
Synopsis
Mabel explains that she is a "dating expert" and stated that the boys can't leave her alone. We then see her holding up a cardboard cutout with a face and basketball uniform drawn on it. "He" begs Mabel to "take him back" but Mabel shouts "You know what you did, Zac!" She then announces that she will "test the datability" of some of Gravity Falls' "bachelors," which are Dipper, Soos, and Stan. She gives them a 9,000 question quiz. While they do that, the short cuts to "Animal Dating." After that, Mabel presents the scores. Stan got a 3/5, making him "datable." Dipper's score is never revealed, though implied to be bad, but Mabel reassures him that he should just "be himself." Soos somehow gets a 12/5, and Mabel labels him as "TOTAL HUNK." Mabel concludes that if you aren't right for each other, "FORCE IT." The squirrels from "Animal Dating" then attack her and the short ends.
