Everyone has their own way of dealing with failure.  For some, it's gummy bears, for others it's bottling up their emotions until their eventually explode, destroyign your house, your family, your pets, and your Amiibo collection.  The doctors over at the Emmy award nominated show "The Doctors" tell us that good character development can only be achieved by stopping the flow of the story and inserting scenes of characters saying exactly who they are and what they are feeling.  Gravity Falls proves them wrong with an epic display of storytellingship the likes of which have never been seen before.  Oh, also Joe used the wrong microphone by accident.  Whoops!
