Ford was lost for about 30 years. In other units, a bill-ion seconds

If Bill could see the future with 100% accuracy, he'd never lose, because he'd see ahead of time what schemes would fail, and just not do them. Presumably dying of a heart attack at 92 is what would have happened to Ford if Bill had never interfered.

readingatwork posted:The whole end of the world thing is a smokescreen for a bank heist eons in the making. The show will end with the world being saved but Bill walking away with a suitcase full of cash. BUY GOLD! Slime posted:I wonder if all the symbols in that image are the symbols of people who have been involved with Bill in the past, like the ring that shows symbols for Dipper, Mabel, both Stans, Soos etc. I think that's exactly what's going on and I love the idea of Bill just weaving his plans around ultimately small groups of people to horrendous effect throughout time. Something that's seemed curious to me for a while; in the sock puppet episode wasn't Bill out to destroy Stanford's work? I want to say the episode explicitly stated he wanted to destroy the journals but it could just be that I was left with the impression that he was out to erase Stanford's research because he blew up the laptop and wanted the journals for unclear reasons (at the time). I should really rewatch that now that Bill is a bigger deal. nerdbot fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Sep 9, 2015 |

bbf2 posted:I'm assuming they're trying to tell us that Bill can't enter the shack at all....even if he possesses someone outside of it and tries to make them walk inside, it wouldn't work (either they would be blocked from entering or the possession would be lifted). No, it will be Pacifica Northwest who gets him that globe. She's sort of friendly with the twins and her parents worship Bill in some fashion. I'm not sure if she will be possessed herself, and the twins will surrender the rift to rescue her, or if her parents will be possessed and she will enter the Shack looking for it to get them back. But she's the lynchpin for the endgame.

I really like this show, and I really like Jason Ritter and Kristen Schaal as Dipper and Mabel, but sometimes I wish they'd gotten voice actors who were a little younger or more in touch with their inner children, especially for Dipper. Maybe it's more the writers than the actors, but Dipper sometimes has a lot more insight, self-awareness and abstract thought capacity that most 12 year olds I know. On the show you're supposed to think "Aw, Dipper, Wendy's way too old for you right now." I had moments of thinking "Why is this Little Person in his mid to late twenties crushing on Wendy? She's way too young for him."

It's possible that Ford will have a heart attack at 92, but that doesn't grantee that Ford will actually live to 92 or that he'll die from the heart attack that he has at that age. Or maybe, like other people have said, Bill was just lying.
