That will probably be very good for him! And also maybe the Pines, depending on how much Fiddleford is willing to let them pester him. With Stan gone, its down to Dipper and Ford as the one's allowed to use kitchen equipment. Ford only knows how to make incredibly bland, but very nutritious, weird science!meals. Dipper is a decent cook but he's also ...fourteen. Maybe they can convince Fiddleford to have mercy on their household and cook them some decent biscuits and gravy every so often.

"What do you remember last about back home? It was probably like, the 80's or something, right?"

That's an innocent enough question, but it will give Dipper an idea of what's up on McGucket's end without hopefully kicking a hornets nest.
