The episode opens to Dipper and Mabel in the living room, watching a show on television called Duck-tective. The shows features a constable and a duck detective standing next to a telephone booth that has limbs of an unseen dead person sticking out. While watching the television program, Mabel knits a new sweater and Dipper eats popcorn from a bowl. Mabel reaches for some popcorn, but Dipper slaps her hand.
|
|
Cut to TV.
|
Constable
|
I'm afraid your services won't be required here, sir. My men have examined the evidence, and this is obviously an accident.
|
Duck-tective
|
(Starts quacking, the subtitles read:) Accident, constable? Or is it...Murder?!
|
Constable
|
What?!
|
TV announcer
|
Duck-tective will return after these messages.
|
|
Cut back to twins.
|
Mabel Pines
|
(Drops her sweater and gasps) That duck is a genius!
|
Dipper Pines
|
Eh, it's easier to find clues when you're that close to the ground.
|
Mabel
|
(Hands on her hips, squinting at Dipper doubtfully) Are you saying you could outwit Duck-tective?
|
Dipper
|
Mabel, I have very keen powers of observation. For example, just by smelling your breath, I can tell that you have been eating (Sniffs) ...an entire tube of toothpaste?!
|
Mabel
|
(Her mouth covered in sparkling toothpaste) It was so sparkly...
|
Soos Ramirez
|
(Runs in) Hey, dudes, you'll never guess what I found!
|
Dipper
|
Buried treasure!
|
Mabel
|
Buried-- (laughs and pushes Dipper playfully) Hey, I was gonna say that!
|
Soos
|
(Leading the twins to a door) So, I was cleaning up, when I found this secret door, hidden behind the wallpaper. It's crazy bonkers creepy! (Opens the door)
|
|
The room is filled with several different wax sculptures.
|
Dipper
|
(Shining a flashlight around) Whoa! It's a secret wax museum!
|
Mabel
|
(Fingering Wax Sherlock Holmes) They're so life-like.
|
Dipper
|
(Shines flashlight and points to Stan) Except for that one.
|
Stan Pines
|
Hello!
|
Dipper, Mabel and Soos

(Scream in surprise)

|
(Scream even louder in fright and run away)
|
|
Cut to theme song.
|
Stan
|
Behold the Gravity Falls Wax Museum! It was one of our most popular attractions... before I forgot all about it. I got 'em all! Genghis Khan, Sherlock Holmes, (Looks at a wax sculpture of Larry King) some kind of, I don't know, goblin man?
|
Dipper
|
(Shudders) Is anyone else getting the creeps here?
|
Stan
|
And now for my personal favorite: Wax Abraham Lincoln, right over-- (Looks at the melted glob of wax on the floor, which is under sunlight from the window above it) Oh! Oh no! Come on, who left the blinds open? Wax John Wilkes Booth, I'm looking in your direction! (Bends down and puts finger in wax; sighs) How do you fix a wax figure?
|
Mabel
|
Cheer up, Grunkle Stan. Where's that smile?
|
Stan
|
Egh.
|
Mabel
|
Beep, bop, boop! (Cheerfully pokes Stan in the face)
|
Stan
|
Ow.
|
Mabel
|
Don't worry, Grunkle Stan. I'll make you a new wax figure from all this old wax!
|
Stan
|
You really think you can make one of these puppies?
|
Mabel
|
Grunkle Stan, I'm an arts and crafts master. Why do you think I always have this glue gun stuck to my arm? (Holds up her arm, which has a glue gun glued to it; shakes her arm) Eugh, eugh!
|
Stan
|
I like your gumption, kid!
|
Mabel
|
I don't know what that word means, but thank you!
|
|
Cut to Dipper drinking soda and walking towards Mabel.
|
Mabel
|
Dipper!
|
Dipper
|
(Starts choking on soda)
|
Mabel
|
What do you think of my wax figure idea? (Shows Dipper a drawing that she sketched in her sketch-book) She's part fairy princess, and part horse fairy princess!
|
Dipper
|
M..maybe you should carve something from real life.
|
Mabel
|
(Shows Dipper another sketch that she created) Like a waffle, with big arms!
|
Dipper
|
Y-okay... Or, you know, something else. Like- like someone in your family.
|
Stan
|
Kids, have you seen my pants? (Poses on a briefcase)
|
Mabel
|
(Turns around, her eyes become big) Oh, muse. You work in mysterious ways.
|
Stan
|
Why's your sister talking to the ceiling?
|
|
Cut to a montage of Mabel busily working on Wax Stan.
|
Mabel
|
(Moves back to admire her work) I think... it needs more glitter.
|
Soos
|
Agreed. (Hands Mabel a bucket of glitter)
|
Mabel
|
(Tosses the entire bucket onto the statue)
|
Stan
|
(Walks in with his pants on but not his shoes) I found my pants but now I'm missing my-- (Notices Wax Stan) Ahhh! (Falls over)
|
Mabel
|
What do you think?
|
Stan
|
I think... the Wax Museum's back in business!
|
|
Cut to Soos leading people to see the grand opening of the Wax Museum. Dipper is working in the stand with Wendy.
|
Dipper
|
I can't believe this many people showed up.
|
Wendy Corduroy
|
I know, right? Your uncle probably bribed them or something.
|
Dipper
|
He bribed me. (Holds up dollar)
|
Wendy
|
(Holds up a dollar. They both laugh.)
|
Stan
|
(Clears throat over the microphone) You all know me, folks! Town darling, "Mr. Mystery." Please, ladies, control yourselves!
|
|
Cut to three women in the audience staring blankly ahead, flies swarming around them.
|
Stan
|
As you know, I always bring the people of this fair town novelties and befuddlements, the likes of which the world, has never known. But enough about me. Behold... me! (Uncovers Wax Stan)
|
Soos
|
(Makes a fanfare sound on his keyboard, then makes a "Ye-ah! Ye-ye-ye-ye-ye-ah!" sound)
|
|
Two people in the audience politely clap and someone coughs.
|
Stan
|
And now a word from our own Mabelangelo!
|
Mabel
|
It's Mabel. (Takes microphone) Thank you for coming! I made this sculpture with my own two hands! (Throws up her arms) It's covered in my blood, sweat, tears, and other fluids!
|
Audience
|
Ugh! Ewwww!
|
Mabel
|
(Chuckles) Yeah. I will now take questions! (Points to McGucket) You there!
|
Old Man McGucket
|
Old Man McGucket, local kook. Are the wax figures alive? And follow-up question, can I survive the wax-man uprising?
|
Mabel
|
Um...Yes! Next question! (Points to Toby Determined)
|
Toby Determined
|
(Holding a turkey baster as if it is a microphone) Toby Determined, Gravity Falls Gossiper. Do you really think this constitutes a wonder of the world?
|
Stan
|
Your microphone's a turkey baster, Toby.
|
Toby
|
It certainly is--
|
Stan
|
Next question. (Points to Shandra Jimenez)
|
Shandra Jimenez
|
Shandra Jimenez, a real reporter. Your flyers promised free pizza with admission to this event. Shows flyer Is this true?
|
Audience members
|
That's what I heard! ... Come on! ... What a rip-off! ... Pizza? ... I want my pizza!..
|
Stan
|
That was a typo. Good night, everyone! (Uses a smoke bomb to escape, taking the admission fee with him)
|
Audience

(Leaving furiously)
|
Pizza Guy

(Sadly walks off)
|
Manly Dan

I think that went well. (Leans on the admission table)

|
Stan

Hot pumpkin pie! Look at all this cash! And I owe it all to one person, this guy! (Points to Wax Stan)

(Jokingly punches Stan)
|
Stan
|
Ooh! (Noogying her) Yeah, you too, ya little gremlin. Now you kids wash up. We got another long day of fleecing rubes tomorrow. Go, go! (Sighs) Kids.

Who would do something like this?
|
Deputy Durland
|
What's your opinion, Sheriff Blubs?
|
Sheriff Blubs
|
Look, we'd love to help you folks, but let's face the facts... this case is unsolvable.
|
Dipper, Mabel and Stan
|
What?!
|
Stan
|
You take that back, Sheriff Blubs!
|
Dipper
|
You're kidding, right? There must be evidence, motives. You know, I could help if you want.
|
Mabel
|
He's really good. He figured out who was eating our tin cans!
|
Dipper
|
All signs pointed to the goat.
|
Stan
|
Yeah, yeah! Let the boy help. He's got a little brain up in his head.
|
Blubs
|
Oooh! Would you look at what we got here! City boy thinks he's gonna solve a mystery with his fancy computer phone!

You are adorable!

Adorable?

(Laugh)
|
Blubs

Look, P.J.'s, how about you leave the investigating to the grown-ups, okay?

Let's move!
|
Blubs and Durland
|
(Run off laughing)

That's it! Mabel, you and me are going to find the jerk who did this, and get back that head. Then we'll see who's adorable. (Sneezes)

Aww, you sneeze like a kitten! (Dipper glares at her)

Wax Stan has lost his head and it's up to us to find it.
|
Mabel
|
(Takes pictures)
|
Dipper
|
There were a lot of unhappy customers at the unveiling. (Looks at the bulletin board with pictures of suspects) The murderer could have been anyone.
|
Mabel
|
Yeah! Even us!
|
Dipper
|
In this town, anything is possible. Ghosts, zombies, it could be months before we find our first clue.
|
Mabel
|
Hey, look! A clue.
|
|
There are shoeprints in the carpet.
|
Dipper
|
Footprints in the shag carpet!
|
Mabel
|
That's weird. They've got a hole in them.
|
Dipper
|
And they're leading to...
|
|
There's an ax on the floor.
|
Dipper and Mabel
|
(Gasp, then look at each other)
|
|
Cut to the twins in the gift shop with Soos.

Dipper and Mabel
|
Of course!
|

In your face!
|

Back in the present.

He was furious when he didn't get that free pizza.
|
Mabel
|
Furious enough, for murder!
|
Soos
|
Oh, you mean Manly Dan. Yeah, he hangs out at this crazy intense biker joint downtown.
|
Mabel

Then that's where we're going.

Dude, this is awesome. You two are like: The Mystery Twins!

|
Dipper
|
Sorry, Grunkle Stan, but we've got a big break in the case!
|
Mabel
|
Break in the case!
|
Dipper

We're heading into town right now to interrogate the murderer.
|
Mabel
|
We have an axe! (Shows Stan the ax in Dipper's bag; Making a horror movie screeching sound:) REE, REE, REE!
|
Stan
|
Hm, seems like the kind of thing a responsible parent wouldn't want you doing... Good thing I'm an uncle. Avenge me kids! AVENGE MEEE!!

Miner
|
Daaaannnnng'nab it! (Spits on the road and walks off) Eughh!
|
Mabel

You were at work.
|
Manly Dan
|
No, I was punchin' that clock! (Points to a broken clock outside)

Dipper
|
10 o'clock, the time of the murder. So, I guess you've never seen this before? (Pulls out the axe from his bag and shows Manly Dan)
|
Manly Dan
|
Listen, little girl!
|
Dipper
|
Hey, actually I'm a--
|
Manly Dan
|
I wouldn't pick my teeth with that ax. It's left handed! I only use my right hand, the MANLY HAND!! (Rips the machine's arm off and beats the machine with it)

Get 'im! Get 'im! (Giggles)
|

(Pumps arm) Yes!
|
Dipper
|
Mabel, big break in the case!
|
Dipper and Mabel
|
(Leave)
|
Biker
|
But will she love me?!
|
Dipper
|
It's a left handed ax. (Shows her a list) These are all our suspects. Manly Dan is right handed, that means all we gotta do is find our left handed suspect and we've got our killer.
|
Mabel
|
Oh man, we are on fire today! Pa-zow, Pa-zow, Pa-zow!
|
Dipper

Let's find that murderer. (Fist bumps Mabel)

|
|
The cops and kids go to Gravity Falls Gossiper.
|
Blubs
|
You kids better be right about this or you'll never get the end of it.
|
Dipper
|
The evidence is irrefutable.
|
Mabel
|
It's so irrefutable.
|
Durland
|
I'm gonna get to use my night stick!

You ready? You ready, little fella?

Aaaahh! (Falls down) What is this? Some kind of raid?
|
Durland
|
(Smashes a lamp) Derp!
|
Dipper
|
Toby Determined, you're under arrest for murder of the wax body of Grunkle Stan.
|
Mabel
|
You have the right to remain impressed with our awesome detective work. (High fives Dipper)
|
Toby
|
Gobbling goose feathers! I don't understand!
|
Dipper
|
Then allow me to explain. (Flashback to the event; voiceover:) You were hoping that Grunkle Stan's new attraction would be the story that saved your failing newspaper. But when the show was a flop, you decided to go out and make your own headline. (In the flashback, Toby chops Wax Stan's head off)
|
Mabel
|
(Holding a newspaper with a picture of Wax Stan's head)
|
Dipper
|
(Flashback shows Toby's shoe with a hole in it and his turkey baster held in his left hand; voiceover:) But you were sloppy, and all the clues pointed to a shabby shoed reporter who was caught left handed.
|
Mabel
|
(Crumples up newspaper) Toby Determined, you're yesterday's news.
|
Toby
|
Boy, your little knees must be sore... from jumping to conclusions. (Dances) Hachacha! I had nothing to do with that murder.
|
Dipper
|
I knew it! (Overlapping with Mabel) Wait, what did you say? Nothing? You say nothing?
|
Mabel
|
Huh? What? Could you repeat?
|
Blubs
|
Then where were you the night of the break-in?
|
Toby
|
Ehh... (Inserts a tape into a TV. It starts playing, and we see him taking a cardboard cutout of Shandra Jimenez out of his closet) Finally, we can be alone, cardboard cutout of female news reporter Shandra Jimenez! (Kisses it)
|
Cops and kids
|
Eeeewwww! Yuck!
|
Blubs
|
Timestamp confirms it. Toby, you're off the hook. You freak of nature.
|
Toby
|
Hooray!
|
Dipper
|
But, but it has to be him! Check the ax for fingerprints!
|
Blubs
|
(Checks for finger print on the ax) No prints at all.
|
Dipper
|
No prints?
|
Durland
|
Hey I got a headline for you: city kids waste everyone's time.
|
Adults
|
(Laugh)
|
Dipper and Mabel
|
(Look at each other, embarrassed)
|
Toby
|
(As the video of him kissing the cutout of Shandra Jimenez continues to play) Boy, I'd be pretty embarrassed if I was you two.
|
|
Cut to Stan in the wax figure room. He is standing on a stage with a bunch of chairs set up. Dipper, Mabel, Soos, and the wax figures are the audience.
|
Stan
|
Kids, Soos, lifeless wax figures, thank you all for coming.
|
Soos
|
(Blows nose, crying)
|
Stan
|
Some people might say it's wrong for a man to love a wax replica of himself.
|
Soos
|
(Jumps up and points) They're wrong!
|
Stan
|
Easy Soos. Wax Stan, I hope you're picking pockets in wax heaven. (Wipes eye) I'm sorry, I got glitter in my eye! (Cries and runs away)
|
Soos
|
(Running after Stan, while crying:) Ohhhhh duuuude...
|
Dipper
|
(Sighs) Those cops were right about me.
|
Mabel
|
Dipper, we've come so far, we can't give up now.
|
Dipper
|
(Stands up and walk to the coffin) But I considered everything: the weapon, the motive, the clues... (Looks inside coffin; sighs) Wax Stan's shoe has a hole in it...
|
Mabel
|
All the wax guys have that. It's where the pole thingy attaches to their stand dealies.
|
Dipper
|
Wait a minute, what has a hole on its shoes and no fingerprints? Mabel! The murderers are--
|
Wax Holmes
|
Standing right behind you?

|
Wax Figures

A haunted garage sale, son!
|
|
Flashback to the haunted garage sale.
|
Seller

I must warn you, these statues come at a terrible price.

I said I was gonna rob you.

So you were trying to murder Grunkle Stan for real?!
|
Mabel
|
You were right all along, Dipper! Wax people are creepy!
|
Wax Holmes
|
Enough! Now that you know our secret, you must... die.
|

The wax figures growl and their eyes roll back in their heads. The approach the kids.

What do we do, what do we do?

Mabel
|
Decorative candles!
|
Wax Holmes
|
You really think you can defeat us?
|
Dipper
|
I-I don't really know. I'm not-I'm not really sure.
|
Mabel
|
It's worth a shot, I guess.
|
Wax Holmes
|
So be it... (To wax figures:) attack!
|
|
The figures begin closing in on the twins. Wax Lizzie Borden swings her ax at Mabel, but accidently decapitates Wax Robin Hood. Mabel walks around her, but Wax Shakespeare sneaks up behind her. Mabel cuts off his hands with the candles, and he runs away. Wax Shakespeare's hands still move, and begin strangling Mabel. Mabel walks over to a door, and repeatably smashes it on its fingers
|
Dipper
|
Interview this, Larry King! (Decapitates Wax Larry King with candle)
|
Wax Larry King
|
My neck! My beautiful neck!
|
Wax Groucho Marx
|
(Touches candle and his his hand begins to melt) Eh!
|
Dipper
|
Jokes on you, Groucho! (Cuts Groucho in half using candle)
|
Wax Groucho Marx
|
(As the top half of his body slides off of the lower half) I've heard about a cutting remark but this is ridiculous! Hey, why is there nothing in my hand?
|
Wax Genghis Khan
|
(Runs at Dipper, but Dipper dodges and he runs right into the fireplace)
|
Dipper
|
Ha, Genghis Khan! You fell harder than the... uh... I don't know, uh, Jin Dynasty? Heh. Yeah. Alright. (Gets up and runs back into the fight)
|
Mabel
|
(Swings around Wax Coolio's head while getting overwhelmed by wax figures)
|
Wax Coolio
|
Ow ow ow ow! What's up with that?
|
Mabel
|
Dipper! Watch out!
|
Dipper
|
(Cuts Wax Richard Nixon's leg; causes Nixon to be pushed into next room and sees Wax Sherlock Holmes approach him)
|
Wax Holmes
|
Alright. Let's get this taken care of. (Puts Wax Stan's head on the horn of a rhino on the wall, and grabs a sword hanging on the wall. He then swings it at Dipper, smacking the candle out of his hand, and breaking it. He swings the sword above his head, and aims it at Dipper)
|
Mabel
|
Catch! (Throws a poker to Dipper)
|
|
Wax Holmes brings the sword on Dipper, but is blocked with the poker. Wax Sherlock keeps attacking, while Dipper blocks and is pushed back. Dipper is pushed back into the Attic Floor, and is cornered by Wax Holmes against the wall.
|
Wax Holmes
|
Once your family is out of the way, we'll rule the night once again!
|
Dipper
|
(Looks at the window, and, just when Sherlock brings the sword down, rolls through his legs and out the window) Don't count on it!
|
Wax Holmes
|
Come back here, you brat!
|
|
Dipper climbs onto the Mystery Shack sign and Wax Holmes follows him. Dipper slowly walks across it, while Wax Holmes swings the sword at him. They clash between poker and sword while trying to maintain balance. Wax Holmes tries to hit Dipper with its sword, but Dipper jumps back, and the "S" in "Shack" falls off.
|
Wax Holmes
|
You really think you can outwit me boy? I'm Sherlock bleeding Holmes! Have you seen my magnifying glass?! It's enormous!
|
Dipper
|
(Drops the poker and begins to climbs off the sign, and behind it. He hides behind the chimney and looks out to see is Wax Sherlock is there)
|
Wax Holmes
|
(Kicks him down. Raises sword) Any last words?
|
Dipper
|
Um... you got any sunscreen?
|
Wax Holmes
|
Got any--? What? (Turns and sees the sun starting to rise; Gasps) No. (Begins to melt)
|
Dipper
|
You know, letting me lead you outside? Probably not you sharpest decision.
|
Wax Holmes
|
(Continues to melt) Outsmarted by a child in short pants! No! (Starts melting faster) Fiddlesticks! Humbugs! Tiiter, total kerfuffle. Butter hallabaloo. (Everything but his face melts)
|
Dipper
|
Case closed! (Wipes hands together; the dust makes him sneeze)
|
Wax Holmes
|
Ha ha ha! You sneeze like a kitten! Those policemen were right, you're adorable! Adorable! (Falls off the roof and then splashes)
|
Dipper
|
E-ew.
|
|
Cut to Mabel throwing the remaining parts of the wax figures into the fireplace. Wax Shakespeare's head is the only noticeable wax figure left.
|
Wax Shakespeare
|
Though our group be cleft in twain, man of wax shall rise again!
|
Mabel
|
Y'know any limericks?
|
Wax Shakespeare
|
Uh... there once was a dude from Kentucky...
|
Mabel
|
Nope! (Throws his head into the fire)
|
|
Dipper enters.
|
Mabel
|
Dipper! You're okay! You solved the mystery after all.
|
Dipper
|
(Pulls up a chair and takes Wax Stan's head off the wall) I couldn't have done it without my sidekick.
|
Mabel
|
No offense Dipper, but you're the sidekick.
|
Dipper
|
What? Says who? Have people been saying that? Have you heard that?
|
Stan
|
(Walks in) Hot Belgian waffles!! What happened to my parlor!?
|
Mabel
|
Your wax figures turned out to be evil, so we fought them to the death!
|
Dipper
|
I decapitated Larry King.
|
Stan
|
Ha ha! You kids and your imaginations!
|
Dipper
|
On the bright side, though, look what we found. (Hands Stan Wax Stan's head)
|
Stan
|
My head! Ha ha! I missed this guy! You done good kids! Alright, line up for some affectionate noogie-ing.
|
Dipper
|
Oh I'm not so sure about that. Is there any other alternative...?
|
Mabel
|
Oh uh... I'm not so sure...
|
Stan
|
Ha ha! (Noogies Dipper and Mabel)
|
Mabel and Dipper
|
(Laugh)
|
|
Blubs and Durland drive up to the window.
|
Blubs
|
Solved the case yet, boy? I'm so confident you're gonna say no, that I'm gonna take a long, slow sip from my cup of coffee. (Takes a long, slow sip)
|
Dipper
|
Actually, the answer is yes.
|
Blubs
|
Blu blu blu-- (Spits coffee in Durland's face)
|
Durland
|
(Screams; spits coffee in Blubs' face)
|
Blubs
|
(Screams; spits coffee in Durland's face)
|
Durland
|
(Screams; spits coffee in Blubs' face)
|
Blubs
|
It burns! It burns!
|
Durland
|
(Overlapping:) My eyes!
|
|
They drive away, screaming.
|
Stan, Dipper, and Mabel
|
(Laugh)
|
Stan
|
They got scalded!
|
|
A crash is heard.
|
Dipper
|
So, did you get rid of all the wax figures?
|
Mabel
|
I am ninety-nine percent sure that I did!
|
Dipper
|
Good enough for me!
|
|
The camera moves over to a vent and we see Wax Larry King's head.
|
Wax Larry King
|
(Laughs) --Huh?
|
Rat
|
(Walks up to him)
|
Wax Larry King
|
So you're a rat. Tell me about that.
|
Rat
|
(Rips off his ear and runs off)
|
Wax Larry King
|
Hey, get back here! (Hops after him) I'm hopping! I'm hopping after a rat that stole my ear!
|
|
Cut to credits.
|
Mabel
|
Hmm. Hey Dipper, which do you think is better? Sequins or llama hair?
|
Wax Larry King
|
(Hops to the vent next to her) The llama hair. Llamas are nature's greatest warriors. (Hops off)
|
Mabel
|
Thanks Dipper!
|
Dipper
|
(Stops reading and looks around confusely)
|
|
Episode ends.
