* DramaticIrony: It's confirmed that Dipper doesn't know that Grunkle Ford is going to kick Stan out of the house at the end of summer; when he talks about the "Author of the Journals" living in "our" basement, forgetting that the Mystery Shack actually belongs to Ford.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Because Ford is his normal close-mouthed self and Stan doesn't want Dipper to know about the deal between the brothers, Dipper thinks that Grunkle Ford is shutting him out of his dangerous yet interesting work.
