Phineas let out a low sigh as he relaxed outside in his backyard under the tree. Today was the first day of a new summer. It was strikingly similar to the first day of his last summer. Phineas was lying under a tree wondering what he would do today with Ferb sitting next to him, reading a book. Perry lay asleep next to him as well.
"So Ferb, what do you want to do today?" Phineas asked his brother. Ferb shrugged just like he had last summer. Phineas had not really expected him to have an idea, he rarely did. Phineas usually came up with the ideas. Ferb, however, was even better at building them. Phineas thought of the rollercoaster they had built the first day and thought of making another, perhaps it could be a bit of a tradition? Make a rollercoaster the first day of summer each year. Of course, Phineas didn't usually like to repeat the same projects again and he had done the rollercoaster twice last year.
Phineas had no ideas, but it was the first day and he really wanted to do something creative today instead of something typical. Suddenly he heard a familiar voice ask
"What'cha doin'?" Phineas looked over to the source of the nose and saw a sombrero visible over his fence. Isabella then opened the gate and walked in.
"Oh hey, Isabella!" Phineas said "How was your early vacation?" When Phineas said this, he was referring to the fact that Isabella got to skip the last week of school to go with her mother to Mexico and visit her family.
"It was great!" Isabella said with a smile. "We saw a lot of cool things and my relatives gave me a ton of gifts! How is your summer so far?"
"Nothing interesting yet." Phineas said "I have no ideas for anything."
"Nothing? Not on the first day of summer?" Isabella asked.
"Nope." Phineas said sadly.
"That's too bad…" Isabella said. "Oh, hey, my grandmother gave me some candy; it's really good so I saved some for you. Wanna try?"
"Sure." Phineas said. Isabella searched her pocket and pulled out three little wrapped balls of chocolate. She gave one to Phineas, one to Ferb, and she kept the last. "Thanks." Phineas said as he unwrapped the chocolate and placed it in his mouth. Ferb and Isabella did the same. Their eyes grew big and they all sighed contently.
"W-wow, that was amazing!" Phineas said. "Have any more?"
"Nope, sorry." Isabella said.
"That's a shame…if we had our own candy factory like the one from that movie we saw last night we could—Ferb, that's it! I know what we're going to do today!" Phineas cried. "Hey…where's Perry?" he added when he noticed the mammal was gone.
Meanwhile Perry the Platypus was putting on his fedora and sneaking into the hole under his food bowl that led to his hideout. He went down a tube and landed in front a computer screen where his boss, Major Monogram, appeared.
"Good evening, Agent P." Major Monogram said. "Dr. Doofenshmirtz has been buying up all the tri-state areas gum. Find out what he's up to and put a stop it!" Perry saluted and put on his jet-pack. With the engines turned on, he flew out through the tube.
While Perry was preparing for his mission, Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella were all working on their candy factory. Candace, however, was talking to Stacy on the phone.
"I know…it's a new summer and I'll bet anything that Phineas and Ferb are going to ruin it again!" Candace was saying. She was silent for a moment and then added "No, I will not join them in their fun! That is not what a responsible adult does….I don't care if I'm only sixteen! …I'll call you back, Stacy." Candace said as she spotted a new giant building in her backyard. "What are you doing?" Candace asked as she approached the three of them.
"We're building a candy factory." Phineas said
"You mean like the one from the movie?" Candace asked
"No, that was a chocolate factory."
"Yes, I know, but it made more than chocolate."
"I know, but we're already giving out five silver tickets, so if I call it a "chocolate factory" we can get in trouble with some copyright laws." Phineas said.
"Five silver tickets you say…" Candace said "So whoever finds these tickets can come to your factory?"
"Find? Nah, that would take too long, we're just giving them out. I already gave one to Isabella, and Ferb's going to give one to Baljeet and Buford. That leaves us with two tickets left. Want one?" Phineas asked holding out a ticket.
"….I'm telling mom!" Candace said taking the ticket.
"Oh, make sure you give her one too." Phineas said handing Candace the other one as she stormed off.
Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated
There was a sudden bang as Perry the Platypus busted down Heinz Doofenshmirtzs door and charged at him. Perry suddenly stopped and looked down. Both his feet were caught in a large pile of gum. Perry gave a disgusted face as Doofenshmirtz approached him.
"Ahh, Perry the Platypus…I see I have caught you in a…"sticky" situation!" Doofeenshmirtz took some time to laugh at his own joke (Perry rolled his eyes) before continuing. "Not a good trap to be into, huh? But you see, it goes so well with my evil scheme today! Have you ever walked somewhere and found you have gum stuck to your foot?" Doofenshmirtz paused and looked down at Perry's feet "Yes…well I suppose you have. Anyway, it's annoying and gross isn't it? I can't stand it! So you see I have built a new machine" Doofenshmirtz approached a white cloth, behind which was, obviously, his invention "…behold…the Gumaway-inator!" Doofenshmirtz cried as he ripped the cloth off and revealed a laser type of machine. "With this, I can get rid of all places that make gum in Danville disappear! Soon there will be no gum left in the entire TRI-STATE AREA!"
Meanwhile Phineas and Ferb were standing right in front of the candy factory with their friends Isabella, Baljeet, and Buford (though he was officially known as the "bully"). Phineas was wearing a brown top hat that looked a bit like chocolate.
"Greetings friends and bullies." Phineas said "Allow me to introduce to you, our new candy factory!" he said holding his arms out in front of it.
"An what do ya make in that factory of yours?" Buford asked
"Well…as the name suggests…candy." Phineas said.
"I believe Buford meant to ask what KIND of candy you make." Baljeet said.
"Oh, well in that case, all sorts. You see I researched on candy factories and things like that and I found out they aren't all that fun, so I decided to make this more like the movie and a make a fun room dedicated to each kind of candy."
"I believe a tour would be more efficient to demonstrate this." Ferb said. Phineas nodded and pushed open the doors to the door factory and lead everyone in.
Candace, however, was calling her mother Linda to bust her brothers.
"Mom! Mom! The boys are doing something!" Candace cried into the phone. Linda let out a very audible groan.
"We're doing this again?" Linda asked.
"Well…yeah…I mean it's summer again, and these two always ruin it!"
"So what are they doing now?" Linda asked.
"Phineas and Ferb built this chocolate factory in our backyard, except they call it a candy factory to avoid legal issues, and it's huge, and it's full of sweets that they shouldn't be eating before dinner and they have their little friends all in it too!" Candace said all of this very fast.
"Well, dear, I would love to check it out, but I'm busy working." Linda said as nicely as she could.
"I'll get dad to cover for you!" Candace said and hung up the phone. Linda just sighed and went back to selling antiques. Candace went charging upstairs yelling "Dad! Dad! Where are you?" she found her father, Lawrence, in her parents room reading on the bed.
"Hello Candace, dear." Lawrence said "Would you mind reading a bit of Dog Fancy with me?" he asked holding up the magazine.
"No time! I need you to cover for mom at the antique store! Phineas and Ferb are up to something!" Candace cried.
"If that makes you happy, I suppose I could." Lawrence said taking his keys from the table and heading out to the new car he had bought for himself.
"You guys are soo busted!" Candace cried as she hopped into the backseat.
Phineas, Ferb, and the others, however, were having too much fun to hear her. They were now touring through the factory and were now flying planes through a sky-world inside the factory where the clouds were made of cotton candy and it rained gumdrops.
"Oh yeah!" Phineas yelled as he soared through the clouds and ate a bit of them.
"Weee!" Isabella cried as she jumped off her plane and used her parachute to land safely to the ground. The others followed suite and were all laughing as they reached the ground.
"C'mon guys, there's still a lot to do!" Phineas said leading them into a new room. Inside was a chocolate river and boat.
Badink-adink badink-adink badink-adink badink-adink several small voices came. The boat was being rowed by several short blue people.
"Who are these people?" Baljeet asked.
"Oh, they are the Badink-adinks." Phineas said "We borrowed them along with the chocolate river from the old toy factory we worked in. Hope on everyone!" Phineas said climbing on the boat. Everyone climbed in and Phineas pointed at some cup holders, each holding a handled cup "See these? You can use them to get some chocolate from the river…don't use your hands, we need to sell this!" Phineas cried and Buford stuck his hand out of the ship to grab some.
"You're selling this?" Baljeet asked.
"Well…yeah, I mean our inventions don't pay for themselves, we gotta make the money somewhere." Phineas said as Isabella climbed in the boat and sat next to him. The Badink-adinks started rowing and they were off.
"Y'know, Phineas, I hear if you try chocolate you get a feeling you're in love…" Isabella said dipping her cup into the river and taking a swig of the chocolate.
"Really? Hmm I never noticed that." Phineas said. He took his cup out and also took a drink of the chocolate. He smacked his lips a bit and stared around at the river, the boat, and finally his eyes rested on Isabella and he smiled. "Hmm, you know what, Isabella? You might be ri—" the rest of his words were drowned out by Baljeets scream.
"Phineas, we're going to go over a waterfall!" Baljeet cried.
"Don't worry, Baljeet, the elevator will catch us." Phineas said without a trace of fear. Despite this, he screamed with everyone else as they fell down the waterfall.
The gang soon found themselves in a clear sphere which was going through a tube leading somewhere in the factory.
"Oh, so this must be the glass elevator." Baljeet said.
"Glass elevator? Nah, that's just ridiculous. This is made out of plastic." Phineas said as he dropped into an even larger clear sphere. This one was full of very large multi-colored balls.
"What room is this, Phineas?" Isabella asked.
"This is the elevator room; there are several tubes here that can lead us all over the factory. This is also where we make our gum. Oh watch this!" Phineas said pointing as a mechanical hand twisted the knob to the giant gumball machine and the balls moved and they found themselves shooting down a new room.
In this new room, there were piles of candy, every kind imaginable. "This is the candy room." Phineas said "Here you can load up on all the candy you want…enjoy!"
"Sweet! Buford calls first dibs!" Buford said taking out a bag he had brought with him and scooping up all the candy he could. The rest followed stored as much candy in any way they could.
Meanwhile Doofenshmirtz was toying with his Gumaway-inator.
"Hmmm…now that I think about, what does make gum in the tri-state area? Eh, no matter, I'll just fire at everything and if it sells or makes gum it should disappear. Then again…I bought pretty much all the gum in the tri-state area, so why bother making it disappear? I have it all. Why did I buy all the gum in the first place? I didn't need that much to study on, or make the trap…and buying it all probably made Monogram figure out I was up to something…" Doofenshmirtz said pointing the laser around. Perry meanwhile was carefully stepping out of shoes that looked just like his platypus feet.
"Hmmm…what do you think Perry the Platy—Perry the Platypus, how did you esca—" Doofenshmirtz cried but was interrupted when Perry jumped up and kicked him in the face.
Meanwhile, Candace had just arrived at her parent's antique store.
"Mom! Mom! Mom! Phineas and Ferb are up to something and you have to come home right now and check it out!" Candace cried. Linda groaned.
"Candace, I can't leave work right now, I'm busy with a customer." Linda said pointing at the customer she was assisting.
"It's alright dear; I'll take over for you." Lawrence said as he entered the store.
"Are you sure?" Linda asked
"Yes, yes, it's fine. Go along and see what Candace is so excited about."
"Well…OK." Linda said stepping away from the counter.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! C'mon mom!" Candace cried dragging Linda outside.
Back at the factory, Phineas, Ferb, Isabella, Baljeet, and Buford were still stocking up on candy. "And now we can start stocking the rest in stores." Phineas said, beckoning the others to the backdoor where several trucks were taking away the candy. "And that's just the beginning of the factory." Phineas said signing a paper and handing it back to one of the people driving the trucks. "We can explore the rest after we finish all of this." Phineas added dumping out all of his candy. The others did the same and began to eat.
At the lab Perry the Platypus was fighting Doofenshmirtz. Doofenshmirtz threw a punch at Perry the platypus who dodged it and whacked the doctor with his tail. Doofenshmirtz stumbled a bit and Perry grabbed a wad of gum from his trap. Doofenshmirtz aimed a kick and Perry jumped over his head and stuck a huge wad of gum in his hair. "Argh! See? See? THIS is why I hate gum! It keeps getting stuck to your feet, and your hair and it's just disgusting—" Perry jump-kicked Doofenshmirtz in the stomach and he fell back against his machine which fell off the building. "Noo! My inator!" Doofenshmirtz cried reaching out after the machine as though he could pull it back. He turned back to Perry and glared and aimed another punch at the platypus. Perry ducked and grabbed Doofenshmirtz's arm and threw him face first into his own trap. "Argh! Curse you Perry the Platypus!" Doofenshmirtz cried as Perry jumped out the balcony and pulled out his parachute. The Gumaway-inator fell to its doom and as it exploded, a beam fired off.
Candace and Linda had arrived home and Candace leapt out of the car. "Mom! Mom! C'mon!" Candace cried.
"Hold your horses Candace." Linda said as she approached the gate. Candace opened it and looked inside. Phineas, Ferb and their friends were all sitting next to the candy factory eating their sweets.
"C'mon hurry up mom!" Candace called again, not daring to take her eyes off the factory. "See, look what your sons are up to!" Candace said facing her mother for a split second before looking back at her brothers and their friends. The candy factory was gone.
"So what are Phineas and Ferb up to?" Linda asked.
"We built a candy factory!" Phineas said.
"I see…" Linda said eyeing all the sweets they had. "Hmm aren't you a little young to be the owners of a candy factory?" Linda joked.
"Um, I don't think so, the kid in the movie ended up becoming the new owner of the factory." Phineas said.
"Actually he's now eighteen." Ferb said.
"I see…well don't spoiler your appetite for dinner." Linda said heading inside the house.
"But…but…well there goes my first day of summer…" Candace said heading back inside the house.
"Oh, there you are, Perry!" Phineas said petting the platypus whom had just arrived.
