Later in the city
(A woman, clad it a red pantsuit walks with the Mystery Kids)
Real Estate Agent: I found a fantastic spot for your business.
Dipper: It's more of a research lab.
Real Estate Agent: (She presents an old fire station) What do you think?
Lili: ... That's it?
Norman: It's... Okay.
Real Estate Agent: Let's go look inside.
Once they go inside, they're immediately impressed
Norman: Oh, my God! Look at...
Raz: Look at it!
Lili: Dibs on the fire pole!
Mabel: Look at all the room!
Neil: Look at it!
Dipper: It's perfect!
Norman: We got tons of space!
Lili: Stripper pole! It's mine!
Dipper: Uh, we'll take it.
Real Estate Agent: Great. The rent is $21,000 a month.
Dipper: Go to hell!
Real Estate Agent: Excuse me?
Dipper: I'm sorry. That's the rent?
Real Estate Agent: Yeah.
Dipper: Who can afford that?
Real Estate Agent: All your friend said was that you were looking for a place to explore the unknown.
Dipper: Okay, we need to explore something a lot cheaper.
Lili: (Voice only) There's an upstairs!
Real Estate Agent: ... Are you offended by the smell of Chinese food?
Above a Chinese restaurant
Mabel: (Talking to Bennie) I have now moved above you, and you still can't help me out. How does it take you an hour to go up one flight of stairs?
Bennie: I have really bad knees.
Mabel: You know what? (Reaches into the bag and pulls out some liquid in a plastic container) What is that?
Bennie: It's our hot and sour shrimp soup.
Mabel: That looks like dishwater and one shrimp, and I think it's... I hope that's a water chestnut.
(Dipper turns on a radio, and pop music plays. Raz begins lip syncing and dancing)
Lili: Oh, we're dancing? Alright. (She uses her pyrokinesis to add some style to her dancing)
Dipper: Okay. Let's be safe, though.
(She sets fire to a stack of papers)
Dipper: Lili. Lili. Lili! Fire! Fire's over there! (Neil puts the fire out with his water bottle) Thank you.
Norman: I hate to DeBarge in. (Raz laughs) He loves that.
Raz: Is that by DeBarge?
Neil: I thought it was Sev'ral Times.
Norman: Anyway, I got the website up.
Dipper: Oh.
Norman: I passed out a bunch of fliers all over town, so I'm drumming us up a little business. (He holds up a green flyer that reads "If you see something, say something.")
Dipper: It's catchy. It's good.
Lili: It's the anti-terrorism slogan.
Norman: Oh, God. It is, isn't it?
Neil: I thought it was for like domestic and child abuse.
Mabel: I thought it was for a witness protection program.
Norman: Well, I guess now we know why so many people are calling about suspicious-looking bags.
Dipper: ... I love the green paper. (He puts his arm around him)
Norman: (Rolls his eyes) Thank you.
Lili: I'll go burn these outside. (She takes the fliers and leaves the room just as a young Clark Kent-faced man walks in the room)
Jackson: Hey. Uh, I'm here about the receptionist job.
(Mabel and Norman are smitten)
Mabel: HIRED!
Norman: Agreed!
Dipper: Not yet. Hi.
Jackson: Hi. The receptionist job that was in the paper. Um, that's what I was here about.
Mabel: You're hired!
Norman: Heck, yeah.
Lili: (Walks back in) Okay, I burned the fliers... (Notices Norman and Mabel) God, the both of you are sweaty. I think I got it. "If there's something strange in the..." (She sees Jackson) Oh! Jackson. Right?
Jackson: Jackson. Yeah.
Norman: Hey... We spoke on the phone.
Jackson: We did. Yeah.
Lili: Hello Jackson... (Leans her head back to get a better look) Nice.
Jackson: Okay.
Mabel: Jackson. That's a manly name. My name's Mabel.
Norman: Okay... Well, we should probably get started...Right?
Mabel: Yes. I've got some questions.
In their "office", they're interviewing Kevin
Norman: Okay. Here we go. Um... Okay. All right, first off, I just want to say...
Mabel: You know, we should probably start with a very important question that we're asking all of the applicants. Um, you know, are you seeing anyone right now?
Jackson: Um, seeing anyone?
Norman: Yeah. Just for business purposes. Business purposes only.
Jackson: Well, I'm seeing all six of you. In front of me.
Dipper: Oh, just forget they even asked, because if they did, that would be illegal, so...
Jackson: Forgotten.
Dipper: Good.
Jackson: No, I've forgotten. I don't know what you asked.
Raz: There we go.
Lili: Uh, what have you been doing with your whole life?
Mabel: Great question.
Jackson: (scratching his eyes through the eyeglass frames) Oh, well, um, lots of different jobs. Um, I did the "actor thing." Worked for...
Norman: I'm just gonna... Just real quick. Can I ask why no glass?
Jackson: Oh, uh, yeah. They just kept getting dirty, so I took them out.
Norman: That's...
Jackson: Don't have to clean them anymore.
Neil: Oh, boy.
Jackson: Would it be okay if I bring Mike Hat to work sometimes? He has major anxiety problems.
Dipper: You know what? I would love to let your cat live here with you, but I have a pretty severe cat allergy.
Mabel: The funny thing is that he sneezes like a kitten.
Norman: Aw.
Jackson: No, I don't have a cat. He's a dog. His name is Mike Hat.
Neil: Your dog's name is My Cat?
Jackson: No, Mike Hat.
Neil: Your dog's name is Mike, last name Hat?
Jackson: Well, his full name is Michael Hat.
Dipper: I can't say that I'm allergic to dogs, so...
Jackson: It's all right. He lives with my mom.
Lili: Well, then we have that figured out.
Dipper: Okay. That was... One down. No cat. But you know what I say, let's jump ahead, uh... Jackson does a little web design. And I asked him to throw together...maybe a couple of logos for us.
Jackson: Uh-huh. You want to see them?
Mabel: Now is your moment. Pull it out!
Neil: Oh.
Jackson: Sure.
Mabel: Whip it out!
Norman: Come on!
Dipper: Norman, Mabel. You're like a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Jackson: Here we go. (He gets out his laptop, and pull up a sketch of a moody ghost with piercings, a purple fringe, and he's on his phone) Okay, so... What do you think of that?
Lili: Oh. Yeah, you do see how this might make us look bad, right?
Jackson: Uh, is it the phone you don't like? 'Cause I can make it a tablet.
Dipper: We seem like very pale emos. You know what? I think it's not always about the end result. It's about the journey.
Jackson: Well, uh, what about this one? (He shows them the 7-Eleven logo)
Lili: Oh, uh...Uh... I think that's already a thing.
Jackson: What, 7-1-1?
Neil: It's 7-Eleven.
Jackson: Yep, it is. I have another option, though.
Lili: Okay, please.
Jackson: It's this one. (He shows them a hotdog floating over a house) That's one of my favorites.
Norman: Uh... I think you might've made a mistake. I don't think that one's for us.
Jackson: Oh, no. No, that's for you. You know, I just thought the floating hot dog implies that a ghost is holding it.
Dipper: ... Your work is more cerebral than I expected.
Jackson: Wanna see some more?
Norman: No, actually we're actually gonna discuss everything just for a second, so if you could just stand over there, we just need to convene for a moment.
Jackson: Okay. (He stands over by an aquarium)
Raz: Sure. All right.
Lili: Thank you. Just go right over there. Don't listen.
Jackson: (covering his eyes) I won't.
Lili: Oh. He covered his eyes.
Mabel: Guys, look, as much as I would like to have him here to look at...
Lili: Um...
Mabel: What? You don't find him attractive?
Lili: Jackson? Oh, yeah.
Raz: Hey!
Norman: Yeah, he's an Adonis.
Dipper: I don't know, guys. I don't know.
Norman: Come on. We need help around here. We cannot keep carrying that equipment up here. And I know the phones aren't ringing off the hook right now, but they will be.
Jackson: You know, an aquarium is a submarine for fish.
Dipper: It's really not!... Listen, let's just see how the rest of the day goes. You know, talk to other people, and we will hire who is most qualified, okay? Deal?
Raz: There are no other people. He's the only applicant.
(Kevin strikes a gong)
Jackson: (covers his eyes) God, that's loud, huh?
Norman: It's loud! Am I shouting?!
Lili: Yes!
Mabel: Jackson. You got the job! Welcome aboard. (She hugs him and blushes)
Jackson: Cool. Can I bring my suitcases up?
Dipper: Yep, you sure can.
Mabel: Five more minutes... (Jackson slips away from her hug and leaves)
Raz. Look at him.
Lili: How can someone so hot be so stupid (She sees Coraline and Wybie sitting on a bench just outside the room) Oh, uh, guys? Yeah, blue hair, and dreadlocks. If you're waiting for takeout, you should really wait downstairs... Wait.
Coraline: The magazine stand was here, so, we just thought that... (She recognizes her old friends) Oh my God. You guys!
Mabel: Group hug!
(Mabel brings everyone in for a group hug)
Wybie: Can't... Breathe!...
Mabel: Coraline, who's your... Chiseled, friend? Is there a male model convention in town?
(The hug breaks, but Mabel continues hugging Wybie)
Wybie: ... Should I push her off?
Coraline: You guys seriously don't remember Wybie?
Lili: What?
Raz: He's Wybie? Wybie Lovat? The same scrawny kid with the slouch and curly hair?
Wybie: I wasn't that scrawny.
Norman: What happened to your slouch?
Mabel: (Feeling his muscles) And that stutter?
Dipper: And your eyes? One was smaller than the other.
Wybie: Oh, that all went away when I turned sixteen. You know, fun fact about this place, this building is built in the same place as the first Chinese gambling den in New York. Did you know that? I mean, it's, like, coincidence, huh? You got a Chinese restaurant built in the same place as a Chinese gambling den
Lili: Okay, yeah, that's Wybie.
Coraline: Also, we got chased by a ghost in the subway.
Dipper: ... What?
