I've been thinking about an interesting detail about this episode. 
I believe it may have been over looked by most of the fandom. Its Mabel's sweater in "Not What He Seems". Notice how her sweater has a key on it. 
I think that key is a metaphor. As we progressed through the series, it was unbeknownst to all of us that Ford's return or the possible destruction of the world would all depend on Mabel.
She had a choice. Trust Dipper and save the world or trust Stan and unknowingly destroy it all.
Therefore, Mabel was the key to Earth's salvation or destruction.

I don't know if every one will agree with me on this one. Its only speculation.
But it would be cool if that was a subtle metaphor thrown into the episode.
Then again, Alex didn't throw in subtle details just for the heck of it.
Every thing in the series was carefully calculated and well placed.
