"The Shippening"[1] is the fourteenth episode of Season 6 of The Amazing World of Gumball. It is the 210th episode overall.

Synopsis
Sarah finds a notebook from the Awesome Store which magically makes what she draws happen. Unfortunately, she draws bizarre love stories throughout Elmore.[2]

Plot
The episode starts with the Donut Cop and the other cops investigating the shopkeeper of the Awesome Store. Some of the other officers look in the back and are attacked or harassed by his mysterious items. The shopkeeper drives off, and the police have to chase him. As the shopkeeper drives away, he accidentally crashes into a fence next to Sarah's house.

As Sarah checks her mailbox for her next manga comic book, she discovers a magic notebook that the shopkeeper accidentally dropped behind. She brings it to her room and starts to write stories of fictional relationships. Soon, as Sarah writes and narrates, the effects of her writing are seen in real time.

As Moon and Sun rise, love intoxicates the people in the mall. Sarah's story cuts to Teri browsing in an aisle. Sarah narrates a love story between Teri and Alan, making both of them confess their love to each other. Gumball and Darwin walk by. Carmen says she has no words to address the situation before her. Gumball then speaks for her, referring to Alan as an "iron-jawed gas sack." Gumball and Darwin walk away, only to see Hot Dog Guy and Clare confessing their love for each other too.

The boys pass by Joyful Burger, where Larry once again attempts to propose to Karen, but then slides away until he stops in front of Mr. Small. Mr. Small, ripping off his clothes to reveal a wedding gown, accepts Larry's proposal. Gumball and Darwin then see Mr. Robinson and Banana Barbara at the tattoo store, in talks of Mr. Robinson getting a tattoo to show his love for Barbara. Rocky walks by, and Gumball realizes Rocky cannot see his dad cheating on his mom. As Idaho walks by, Gumball throws him at Rocky, knocking the top of his head backwards. The boys then see Hector and Masami attempting to kiss through the mall's roof window, but Hector accidentally chokes on Masami and passes out.

The boys go down to the bottom level, and see Tobias kissing his reflection. In the parking lot, Gumball and Darwin encounter two OCs who look very similar to them. The first of the two, Zachariah Lopez Kirby, claims to be Gumball's cousin, freaking the brothers out. Darwin’s fanfiction counterpart is Zachariah's girlfriend, Bexi, who freaks Gumball and Darwin out also.

Gumball and Darwin walk off. They talk until Gumball spots his adult self and Carrie's adult self in a drawing with a baby. Darwin freaks out at Gumball, calling him a "homewrecking woman-eater," until Gumball points out a human female Gumball in a wedding dress getting married to a human male Darwin, both drawn in anime style, causing Darwin to freak out and cry.

Gumball then spots Sarah’s signature by adult Gumball’s sandal. The two go to Sarah’s house to confront her. In the process, Sarah is maniacally writing fanfiction in the magic notebook, until they smash down her door and demand to know what she did. She claims that she had been writing "love stories" of the citizens of Elmore and got carried away. Gumball then asks Sarah how she got the notebook, and she answers that it literally fell off the back of a truck. Gumball and Darwin both come to the conclusion that the notebook's source of origin was the Awesome Store. Gumball then shows Sarah all the havoc she has caused, and Darwin tells her she has to fix it. At first, Sarah tries by destroying a page, but this fails to work, due to it only causing pain to the anime groom Darwin.

The police then arrive at Sarah's house, and Darwin pressures her to write everything back to normal. Sarah cannot, and instead gives the notebook to Gumball.

Gumball begins writing in the notebook. His writing attempt at breaking up Larry and Mr. Small does not go so well, nor does Darwin's attempt at separating Principal Brown and Jackie. When the police break down the door, Gumball uses the notebook to replace Sarah's stairs with an escalator to stall them. Gumball then quickly writes a scenario to split up Tina, Jamie, and Bobert, Penny and Banana Joe, Hot Dog Guy and Clare, adult Gumball and adult Carrie, Zachariah and Bexi, and Nicole and Yuki.

The police then make it upstairs and are about to enter Sarah's room. With only one line left for any more writing, Sarah writes that Gumball and Darwin kiss her, but in the end, nothing that happened matters because it was all fanfiction. With that everything goes back to normal. Gumball and Darwin question how kissing Sarah helped with her plan, and Sarah tells them that it did not, making an obnoxious gleeful face concluding the episode.
