* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: "The Gossiper" has Dipper and Mabel tag-team Gideon after learning that despite Gideon's claims of turning over a new leaf at the end of the original series, he still let the president of the Gravity Falls Bank coerce him into writing a series of unflattering articles about the Mystery Shack. [[spoiler:This ends up invoking enough of a HeelRealization in Gideon that he shows up to rescue the Mystery Twins when they're being held prisoner by the aforementioned bank president later on in the episode.]]
-->'''Gideon:''' Let me help! Ya know, just in case things go wrong! I can back you two up!\\
'''Dipper:''' No. Things will only go wrong if you're around. You could still be working for this guy for all we know.\\

'''Gideon:''' It was paid order! It was an opportunity!\\
'''Dipper:''' Everything's an opportunity to you, Gideon! But you never take a moment to think about what you'll end up doing to others! I mean, did you once think about us when writing that article?\\
'''Gideon:''' ''[smiles nervously]'' Well, to be fair, it has been four years since our last meeting.\\
'''Dipper:''' ''[facepalms]'' See? This is why we can't take you seriously. I can't believe I thought you could change. ''[exits Gideon's office]'' Let's go, Mabel.\\
'''Gideon:''' B-but I have changed! I'm not evil anymore!\\
'''Mabel:''' It isn't about whether you're evil or not. Maybe you're not "evil" anymore, but you're still just as selfish as you've always been. You're still a thorn in our sides. A smaller thorn, but a thorn nonetheless. ''[follows Dipper out of the office]''
