NO, SERIOUSLY.  IF YOU REMEMBER HOW HE TAUNTED DIPPER, HE SAID HE’D MEET HIS END AND THAT THIS:

WOULD BE THE LAST FACE HE EVER MAKES.  WELL, THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS NEAR THE END OF THE MOST RECENT EPISODE, DIPPER GETS TURNED TO WOOD, ESSENTIALLY DYING.  AND HE MAKES THE SAME FACE.

SO, IS THIS WHAT ALEX HIRSCH WAS REFERENCING, OR IS THERE ANOTHER FATE WATING FOR DIPPER??

BUT, HERE’S A CONNECTION THAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT.

I totally saw this too!!  It could very well be that the shapeshifter predicted exactly this somehow…

BUT - what saved Dipper from this fate?  Pacifica!  It’s as though the shapeshifter didn’t see any Northwest saving them all, but Pacifica was the wild card…

Or they could just be reusing the look to be lazy.
