** It is averted if you decide to say no to Blendin's offer. The book offers an ending where the twins are bored and wondering if they should have taken the offer. This is Gravity Falls, though; another adventure will come there way.

That's because Dipper and Mabel bury the treasure in the woods so that they won't have to pay taxes on it and Grunkle Stan won't get greedy.

** Downplayed with the main ending. [[spoiler:Dipper and Mabel are definitely not happy when they find out that Blendin lied to them all along (as he secretly made a deal with the Time Pirates to get them the treasure in exchange for joining them) and used them; however, in the proper ending, they decide that Blendin's still their friend despite the betrayal and fight the Time Pirates to rescue him after the Pirates betray him]].

** Dipper expresses concern that, if they mess up the past too badly, they could create a BadPresent or BadFuture ruled by lizard people or something. Blendin assures him that the lizard people timeline only happens about 40% of the time, and they're usually pretty nice. [[spoiler:The twins discover in one of the endings that leaving Blendin in the past while they return to the present somehow resulted in the lizard people timeline coming true]].



* ButtMonkey: Blendin as usual. He is ignored, casually insulted, and in some endings, even left behind to a crappy fate by the twins and other characters. Even in the main ending, [[spoiler:he is promptly betrayed by the Time Pirates once he brings them to the treasure, and though Dipper and Mabel decide to save him anyway despite him betraying them, they do so while noting that he's dumb and a terrible time-traveler]].

** In another ending, Dipper and Mabel [[spoiler:accidentally end up becoming feared as criminals known as the "Calamity Brothers", whom they've heard of as the most feared bandits of all time. They realize that the Calamity Brothers ''were'' them all along and never existed on their own, and decide to live out the rest of their lives as these outlaws]].

* BurnTheWitch: This nearly happens to Dipper, Mabel, and Blendin by mob led by Shopkeeper Sprott. They manage to escape back to the present which leads to an ending where [[spoiler: they encounter Farmer Sprott and learn that his western ancestor was burned alive as punishment for letting them escape. Dipper and Mabel contemplate whether they should feel guilty, but decide that it's InSpiteOfANail since Farmer Sprott hates witches regardless.]]
