Transcripts
to summon place your hand on the right
page clear your mind and repeat the
words time to get
weird oh gravity falls it is good to be
back hello all and welcome to a brand
new multi-part Gravity Falls Theory
series the fact that I can say this
feels like a dream come true this show
ended 8 years ago but we've been getting
new content ever since the most recent
is the release of the book of bill which
has so much content that I can't even
put it all in this one video from new
languages to a cryptic website to the
true origins of Bill Cipher there are so
many new puzzle pieces to fit in place
and I'm here to do just that for those
of you who are new to Gravity Falls Bill
Cipher was the big bad of the Gravity
Falls TV show tormenting the Pines
family until he inevitably opened a
Gateway Between Worlds and started what
he calls weird mageddon the pin's
Brothers Stanley and Ford came up with a
devious plan to destroy him once and for
all bill with the power to enter
people's brains was tricked and trapped
in Stanley's head while his brother used
a memory wiping gun that destroyed both
Stanley and Bill sad with the loss of
their family member siblings Dipper and
Mabel attempted to restore Stanley's
memories which worked but while the
Pines family was all happy a question
loomed over all of our heads if
Stanley's memories could come back what
else could too Bill's last words
[Music]
were this may seem like nothing until
you reverse it x o o my time has come to
burn I the ancient power that I may
return his final words were a prayer for
him to be able to return after all these
years it seems he finally has the book
of Bill even though we're able to
purchase it isn't ours we are not its
original owner instead it's Stanford
Pines he found this book in his napsack
and even though he tried to burn stab
tear freeze and molecularly destabilize
the book it always returned so finally
he threw it into a rift with Pages
warning us about its content and that
Rift has led straight to us the book
commands us to summon Bill who then rips
through the pages and begins his sales
pitch for the apocalypse due to the book
being made of human brain matter bill
can manipulate the book any way he wants
having different people see different
things in an attempt to cater to
everyone individually the final twist at
the end of the book involves the deal
bill made with the Axel he will gain a
new life if he passes its most difficult
trial yet therapy the way for Bill to
reincarnate is to Simply go through
therapy his reincarnation options are a
noot a shrimp or a cloud of fungal
spores Bill isn't descending through
circles and fighting demons he's
fighting his own demons with trained
professionals after we discover this he
throws a temper tantrum saying we
betrayed him and severed our connection
hoping that someone will eventually let
him out this story may seem cut and dry
but I assure you it is anything but in
this episode we're going to look at
Bill's motivation a Secret website and
even possibly solve the TV show let's
start off by diving deeper into the book
in this book we get some direct answers
on Bill's Powers he can mind read
possess anything that has neurons hence
why this book is made from brain matter
can see a spectrum of infinite possible
Futures Charisma and pyrokinesis I guess
we can also mention looking amazing in
formal wear and geometric Perfection
just to appease him while this is great
in all it doesn't really tell us too
much to get more or we have to go deeper
Bill reveals that this lore involves a
Multiverse and once he starts talking
about parallel Dimensions we get to
learn that he himself is gifted with the
ability to see into other worlds he can
see worlds where the pine siblings
didn't survive their Encounters this
book seems to flip-flop the words worlds
Realms dimensions and universes
interchangeably so we're just going to
use the word universe as it's commonly
being used in other media as well he
eventually begins to talk about dreams
which he Reveals His control over once
you hit your REM cycle you enter the
mindscape which is a secret back door
connecting all Consciousness otherwise
known as Bill's playground here bill can
enter your dreams as we see him do with
Mabel in the book and extract
information like the movie Inception
there's one more very important thing to
note about Bill's dream powers on the
page hello Earth he says where there are
Minds there are dreams and where there
are dreams
there's me this is then brought back up
in the Journal of thurbert Wagstaff III
leader of the anti-her society in the
design of the bill hunting suit it says
that Mr Cipher strikes in your dreams so
you must not fall prey to Slumber this
is repeated again when Ford attempts to
make his own bill hunting suit let's
write down that he strikes in your
dreams at the end of this section bill
says I started to think that maybe
reaching out to humans oneon-one wasn't
cutting it that's when I realized there
was a better way to get into humans
Minds Bill discovered a new popular form
of media called cartoons and started
making his own once that failed he moved
on to music this began to work for him
until any reference to him was banned
from the radio afterwards he moved on to
computers that were capable of mass
hypnosis which didn't pass through the
Prototype stage due to the floppy Drive
eating a kid's finger his final attempt
involved creating figurines that could
attract grandmothers in all of these
examples he possesses does a deal with
or accepts artists and inventors to try
and create a method to get into
everybody's heads while he needs his
portal to take over Earth he also needs
people to fall in line and let him in
which is what he has unsuccessfully
attempted here the final point we need
to talk about is a very interesting one
at the beginning of the book we see Bill
say oh you might feel silly about
meeting me after all Bill Cipher is
imaginary you're real and I'm not right
but are you sure about that at the very
end of the book he says I showed you my
childhood I broke the fourth wall for
you and this is how you repay me let's
write this down all of these abilities
are great and all but the ones we are
going to focus on here are possession
can see other universes his methods of
getting into people's heads and the
ability to break the fourth wall so
let's remove everything else here just
to clean up our workspace this right
here explains everything we have ever
known about gravity falls hey speaking
of fourth wall breaking have you heard
of Overton the video game that I'm in no
well it's a brand new indie game that's
100% practical Graphics never heard of
them in fact you could probably play
this game on anything that can support
videos if you love deep dives into lore
which clearly you're here watching this
video so I'll take that as a yes you
will love this game this story driven
Choose Your Own Adventure game is full
of so much talent love and Hedgehogs
that you'll scream what's the deal with
the box please someone tell me now I'm
going crazy just thinking about it and
now doesn't that sound Pleasant the link
to the game is at the top of the
description below and in the card at the
top right of the screen so make sure to
wish list it right now sorry Bill is
getting restless let's get back to
solving Gravity Falls so like we just
said these abilities will help us
explain the entirety of gravity Falls we
know he says he broke the fourth wall
but we need to know exactly how aware he
is and what this means in the lore of
the world of Gravity Falls how exactly
is he breaking the fourth wall is he
aware that he's simply a TV show
character fictional like he calls
himself well we need to turn back to the
book for these answers during the weird
mageddon section bill says look you
already know what happened next using
10th dimensional cunning and Charisma I
returned to Gravity Falls played the
family against each other and finally
got the bridge between worlds that I'd
been dreaming of for so long yes I was
shattered yes it was a dirty trick no
I'm not upset bill is aware that we know
the events of Gravity Falls now we don't
know if this means that the pines and
the town of Gravity Falls have shared
this story with others and that's why we
would know it or if he's actually
referring to the Gravity Falls TV show
luckily for us the next page gives us an
interesting thing to note it shows Bill
burning a diarama of Gravity Falls and
right at the bottom is the Gravity Falls
logo the same font in everything now
there is a sign in Gravity Falls that we
saw at the beginning of episode 1 but
it's much more crude than the one we see
here this one is the exact same font as
the logo from the TV show so this is the
Smoking Gun right well not quite the
background of the TV show is slightly
different we're going to need a little
more than this if we want to come to a
conclusion we have to turn to the fake
book cover at the bottom of the opposite
page it says for more Bill ciper press
fun visit this is Nota website.com doc
going there brings us to this page with
nothing more than a triangle and a
prompt luckily bill has provided us with
the password question seven of the
intelligence test asks us why this thing
won't leave Bill alone tilting this
image displays two different texts need
a password find all talk and it's the
name of the eyeball doc luckily for us
bill has outwardly expressed his
negative relationship with the Great
Gatsby which uses heavy symbolism
everywhere especially with the eye
doctor named TJ eckleberg putting TJ
eckelberg into this website displays a
countdown when this countdown finally
completed it kept counting now in the
negatives when writing this script it
has been 2 days since this countdown
ended Seuss is displayed over the
countdown clock holding wires saying
that the Mystery Shack is experiencing
delays but if this website is Bill's
website why is Seuss here does that make
it the mystery Shack's website like he
said well I don't think so on the
background paper of this website we can
see a circled picture of Bill with
strange text above him this text is Bill
Cipher's code it has appeared many times
in gravity falls's history so you better
believe we already know what that code
is this is a substitution Cipher every
symbol represents a different letter
using a key we can translate this to say
lost files bill is not only pointing us
to this website the password being
something he set up for us but also
knows the current status of the website
but then again why is Seuss here how can
this be Bill's website with Seuss
present within simple in the book of
Bill's intelligence test question 6 asks
you to calculate the surface area of
Seuss and we can even see him talking
this is still Bill's website even if
Seuss is here now that we know for sure
this is Bill's website let's actually
take a look at it if you click Seuss he
will display a different string of text
if you do this enough eventually Seuss
will appear possessed by Bill and
display a new code this is probably our
easiest one to decipher this code is
simply a font called 1951 Alchemy and
this is is the symbol subset all this
says is so many questions we'll come
back to this sentence later another
string of text that can appear is in the
meantime experience some soothing Tunes
while you wait they drown out the rage
dude clicking the soothing Tunes link
sends us to the Gravity Falls main title
theme Loi on the Disney Music Vivo
Channel bill is aware of Disney he's
aware of the Gravity Falls show he knows
the logo and he's breaking the fourth
wall Bill knows he's in a TV show but
now this creates two new questions one
how much does Bill know about us and two
how much control does Bill have let's
start with the first question we can see
throughout the book that bill is aware
of the reader talking directly to us but
is he aware of our world we've only seen
him as animated but is he aware of the
real world and is he a part of it with
us well let's figure that out this book
has revealed that this lore is in fact
within a Multiverse which means we have
to take other universes into account for
anything we discuss whenever Stanford
Pines communicates with us he adds a
photo or a relic from Gravity Falls the
bill statue a selfie a moth pictures of
him partying and a family photo all of
these things are animated excluding the
goth moth we can't really take Gravity
Falls as creatures as evidence for
anything considering not only does the
location house many anomalies but
Stanford has also stated that there are
still Rifts open to the nightmare realm
meaning creatures from other universes
could easily be inhabiting Gravity Falls
it seems that we can suggest that
Gravity Falls is in an animated Universe
Bill Cipher revealed that he is from a
2d universe and created a universe of
Chaos with no rules moral or physical
these universes are built on very
different rules and stylized uniquely so
having one that is animated is perfectly
feasible it's similar to the Lego
Universe in into the spiderverse it's
just like Bill said when talking about
heaven in an infinite Multiverse all
conceivable realities can and must exist
Gravity Falls seems to be in an animated
Universe because people from within it
are still communicating with us and
showing us that they are animated but we
are still unsure whether this is truly
the case every time it seems to be one
way we get thrown for a loop if this
universe was animated why are the
Polaroids and the tape holding them
hyper realistic why is the cassette tape
in Stanford's lost Journal three pages
hyper realistic why is the $1 bill that
Stanley ripped hyper realistic I I I
don't know I actually don't know later
in the series will give two possible
options but luckily for us this doesn't
really matter for the two questions we
are trying to answer right now is Bill
aware of our world yes absolutely bill
has an actual picture of Larry King a
picture of him with an actual human in
the background him on vinyl covers with
actual people a hyperrealistic computer
and figurines on the back of the book
there are reviews from Weird Al guod Del
Toro and Charlie Day where Charlie
clearly becomes possessed by Bill he is
absolutely fully aware of our so-called
real world and has dealt with it in the
past finally how much control does Bill
have he knows about our world he knows
about the Gravity Falls TV show and he
knows that we think he's fictional the
biggest indicator of everything is also
in the sleeve of the book where the note
from the author goes there is a picture
of Alex hirs possessed by Bill
commanding you to get this book this is
where everything finally comes together
we're going to use some speculation to
fill in the gaps but all the evidence
we've gathered here points to these big
Ideas we saw previously that bill has
tried to manipulate only one person to
make his portal before realizing there
was a much much better way of getting
into people's heads he manipulated and
possessed artists and inventors into
pushing his narrative and His Image into
people's heads without them even knowing
it all of these attempts failed and why
he moved too fast he got too risky he
had too much creative control when he
was doing his animations he released
bees into the audience which made people
realize his true intentions during his
time with the cipher tones he directly
told people to construct the portal
which caused mass panic when making the
maniac inos the programmers kept jumping
off Bridges and the floppy disc ate a
kid's finger and the triangels Never
worked nobody would follow Bill no
matter what he did except for one thing
at the beginning of the book during
Stanford's warning he said some local
teens think Bill worship is edgy he
found followers weird mageddon and his
inevitable downfall did what he could
never do before so it would seem that
what he decided to do was do what he did
so many times before manipulate an
artist Alex hirs this time it was an
animator yet again but it appears he
learned from his mistakes because there
were no Bees in this it was just a story
his story he implanted himself into
everybody's mind who watched that show
he manipulated Stanford for his
curiosity and just like he said with the
books Bill is doing the same with us
this entire series is based on cryptic
ciphers and codes the thing we already
know is Bill 's expertise but why well
Bill said it at the very beginning he is
an idea and you can't kill an idea but
why a show why a book for that we have
to turn to the last things Stanford left
us with this isn't some dark Bible or
cursed Gateway it's a pathetic gasp at a
has been who fears being forgotten Bill
isn't a god he's a needy theater kid in
search of a stage he's making it all up
as he goes along all he really wants is
for us to keep reading because as long
as we're reading we're giving him
lifeblood not power attention you can't
kill an idea but you can think of a
better one he wants a stage he wants
attention it's the exact reason why he
tried to get into animation before it's
most likely the same reason for why the
countdown is still going clues that mean
nothing a website that's still stalling
attention and we're falling for the bait
he's just a pre-teen theater kid looking
for attention but that doesn't mean his
story is over that doesn't mean any of
the story is over we know why he does
what he does and we seem to be able to
suggest that Gravity Falls the show is
Bill's doing but it still clearly
happened those characters are real and
this story is continuing but that my
