Static. Opens to Dipper writing on sign.

Mabel

(Whispering from behind camera) We're on!
|
Dipper
|
Oh. (Clears throat) Hello. And welcome back to Dipper's Guide to the Unexplained.
|
Mabel
|
(Holds up UFO keychain and buzzes it)
|
Dipper
|
Thank you. Today we investigate Gravity Falls anomaly #132: The Hide Behind. (Holds up title card)
|
|
Static.

Dipper
|
(Reading from Journal 3) Local lumberjacks tell of a mysterious creature, always just out of sight. But these photos suggest it might actually be real! Either way, I intend to find out!
|
Mabel
|
(Jumps out at Dipper) Aah! I'm the Hide-Behind!
|
Dipper
|
(Drops camera) Aah! Mabel!
|
Mabel
|
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
|
|
Static, cut to Manly Dan.
|
Dan
|
Hide-Behind? Oh, he's real alright. REAL AS MY BEARD! Was behind me once; made this sound: "tch-tch-tch-tch". Mighty spooky.
|
|
The tree that Dan's sons are cutting down starts to fall. They run away.
|
Dan's Oldest Son
|
Daaad!
|
Dan's Middle Son
|
It's comin' down!
|
Dan
|
DADDY'S DOIN' A MOVIE! He's doin' a movie now.
|
|
The tree falls on a shack. Static, cut to Lazy Susan pouring and overflowing a cup of coffee.
|
Gray mustache man
|
Could I get a refill, ma'am? Refill?
|
Susan
|
Oh, the Hide-Behind is definitely real. Might even be behind me right now! Let me see... (turns around and around) Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa—! (Man is utterly confused)
|
|
Static, cut to Stan.
|
Stan
|
Don't believe every legend you hear, kid. The people in this town are literally the dumbest people in the world. Literally.
|
|
Static, cut to Lazy Susan still spinning around. Cut back to Stan.
|
Stan
|
The Hide- Behind's just a rumor. You want a mystery? How about the mystery of why—
|
|
Something runs behind Stan.
|
Stan
|
What the... AH!
|
Dipper
|
That's it! (Runs after it)
|
Stan
|
Hey, we're doin' an interview here!
|
Mabel
|
Dipper!
|
Stan
|
Kid!
|
Dipper
|
I'm coming for ya. Where is he? Where is he?
|
|
Static, cut to a tiny tree.
|
Dipper
|
Alright. After hours of searching, I've narrowed it down to this tree. (the camera faces Dipper) I know what you're wondering. How do you catch a creature who's always right behind you? How about... (steps away from the camera) A mirror suit! Nothing's going to sneak up on old Dipper— (Suddenly gets poked in the head with a stick) AAH!
|
Mabel
|
(Hangs down from a tree) Blind spot!
|
Dipper
|
AAH! (Falls over) Oof! I'm down! Dipper down!
|
|
Static.
|
Dipper
|
This is it. Get ready to finally be seen, Hide-Behind! In 3... 2... 1...
|
|
Jumps behind the tree to find an owl with a maraca in its mouth.
|
Dipper
|
A-ha! What?
|
Mabel
|
Wow! Cool! Maraca owl!
|
|
Static.
|
Dipper
|
(Takes off mirror suit and dumps it on the ground, groans) Well, based on the lack of evidence, I have to conclude, anomaly #132, the Hide-Behind, just a legend. (Sighs and starts to walk away)
|
Hide Behind
|
(Follows him, then hides behind a tree when Dipper turns around)
|
Dipper
|
What was that? Eh, nothing. (Keeps walking)
|
|
The Hide Behind continues to follow Dipper, then hides when he turns again. Dipper walks off, followed by the Hide Behind. Static. A part of the hidden page is shown.
