Twins Dipper and Mabel Pines visit their eccentric great-uncle for a summer in Gravity Falls, Oregon, where he operates the world's most bizarre museum. As soon as the twins arrive in Gravity Falls, they discover something amiss in the remote town.

When someone tampers with Mabel's life-size wax statue of Grunkle Stan, she and Dipper set out to find the culprit. Meanwhile, Grunkle Stan mourns over the loss of his wax doppelganger.

In a quest to attain manliness, Dipper ventures into the forest to battle the notorious Multi-Bear. Meanwhile, Mabel tries to teach Grunkle Stan how to be attractive to women, particularly the waitress in the local diner, Lazy Susan.
