[Dipper starts worrying about Stan in Ford's basement]
And he's insisting on speaking his mind! [Ford is reading Journal 2 on his desk with a missing ripped page]
So this is an emergency.
The Stump Speech is in a couple of days, and if he continues like this, we'll lose to Bud for sure.
[thinking] Hmm. It's a shame there isn't some device that will allow you to control someone else. [opens his drawer] Oh, wait! Of course, yes. There is. [Shows Dipper a red and blue striped tie] A long time ago, I designed a prototype for Ronald Reagan's masters. Just get Stan to wear this, and you can make him a literal talking head.
[peers inside the tie] Whoa, this is amazing! And ethically ambiguous!
[gives another blue striped tie to Dipper] As long as you wear the matching one, he'll say and do whatever you want him to.
Thank you, Great Uncle Ford! [runs off]
[waves, resumes his research] Yes, yes. Use it responsibly and all.
