"And our first gold medal winner goes to 18-year-old Yuka Sato of Japan!"
Phineas, Ferb, and Candace were watching the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics on television when the announcement was made.
"Wow!" exclaimed Phineas. "This is so exciting! Hey, Candace! What is this again?"
"It's the Summer Youth Olympics in Singapore, China," answered Candace. "More than 3,000 young athletes from around the world get to participate in 201 events in 26 different sports."
"Cool! Summer Olympics! What a great way to spend a day of summer vacation!" Candace's eyes opened wide upon hearing Phineas awestruck.
"Oh, no! No, no, no, no, no! Don't even think about-"
"Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!" Candace groaned and slapped her forehead. And it wasn't long before Phineas and Ferb set to work on their new daily idea. Candace was already pleading with her mother.
"Mom, Mom, Mom!" she screamed.
"Candace, now what?" sighed Linda.
"You've got to stop Phineas and Ferb! They're planning to make their own…Summer Olympics!"
"You mean like the Summer Youth Olympics on T.V.? Candace, I honestly don't see what harm the boys could possibly-"
"Just stop them! Bust them!" shrieked Candace. "They take the fun out of everything!"
"Candace, honey, if that's what you think, it's because you've been wasting your whole vacation trying to bust them. If you haven't had much fun this summer, you have no one to blame but yourself."
"B-b-b-but…"
"Just relax. If they're recreating the Summer Youth Olympics as you say, why don't you join them? It sounds like fun."
"Hah! I'll join my brothers when the garbage incinerator freezes over!"
"Alright, Miss Sourpuss, be that way." Linda left the house and went to her car just as Phineas and Ferb came from the backyard. "Hi, boys. What'cha doin'?"
"We're gonna host our own Summer Olympics here in Danville just like the Summer Youth Olympics on T.V.!"
"Ah, that's what Candace told me. Well, try not to jerk her strings too much. She's having one of those days again. You know what she's like. Well, I'm off to meet your father at the Googolplex Mall. Be good!" Linda was completely unaware of the gigantic stadium in the backyard as she drove off. But Candace saw it and gasped.
"What have you done to the backyard?!" she screeched.
"Backyard?" said Phineas. "I think you mean the Danville Summer Olympics stadium."
"That's it! I'm telling Mom!" Candace turned and saw Linda's car leaving.
"Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom!" Candace hollered after her, but she was already out of sight and range. She angrily whipped out her cell phone and dialed Linda's number.
"Candace, not now, I'm trying to drive," answered Linda, while driving her car.
"But, Mom, they've built a giant stadium for their stupid Olympics in the backyard!"
"And I'm supposed to meet your father at the mall in ten minutes. Call me back later this afternoon. Bye, honey." Linda hung up, irritating Candace. Isabella, Baljeet, Buford, and Django soon arrived at the Flynn-Fletcher house.
"Hi, Phineas! Hi, Ferb!" said Isabella. "What'cha doin?"
"We're gonna hold our Summer Olympics in just one day!" exclaimed Phineas.
"Wow!" said Baljeet in awe.
"You guys are amazing!" said Django at the same time. Isabella and Buford were also impressed.
"Step right this way," gestured Phineas, leading his friends into the stadium ring. "These seats are for the spectators. And these are for the main events – athletics, gymnastics, rowing, archery, aquatics, fencing, and of course table tennis. So…who wants to have a go?"
"Phineas!" Candace stepped into the stadium in a huff. "Okay, listen, you losers. If you think you can get away with this one-"
"Candace, whoa, heavy!" interrupted Phineas. "In these Olympic Games, there are no losers OR winners! These events are for having fun only!"
"No losers?" said a rather disgruntled Buford. "Ah, there goes my joyride."
"You may have your fun now," said Candace. "But just you wait! When Mom finds out what you're doing you're going down-"
"Hey, Candace, what's all this?" said Stacy, as she entered the stadium along with Jeremy and Jenny. All three of them were dressed in sports attires.
"Stacy? Jeremy? Jenny?" Candace was surprised.
"We're just about ready to divide into teams and take part in the Danville Summer Olympics!" explained Phineas.
"Let me guess," said Jeremy. "You guys are hosting."
"Exactamundo!" replied Phineas. "Hey, where's Perry?" The semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal wandered off towards a stadium elevator and while no one was looking, he stood upright, donned his fedora, and took the elevator down into his secret underground lair where he awaited his daily orders from his boss, Major Monogram, on the big screen.
"Good morning, Agent P," said Major Monogram. "It seems that the evil scientists' organization, L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. has gathered at Dr. Doofenshmirtz's headquarters, but of course, we don't know exactly what he's planning. So it's up to you to find out and as always, put a stop to him!" Agent P saluted and took off in his hover car, flying away from the stadium unseen.
Doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bah
Perry!
Down below, spectators were already gathering and even cameramen and news casters were entering the stadium for this spectacular event that was moments away from unfolding.
"Say, aren't you two a little young to be hosting your own Olympics much less be in the Olympics?" asked a news reporter.
"Yes, yes we are," declared Phineas. He turned to the others. "Okay, we're almost ready here! Wanna join, Candace?"
"Forget it," she snarled. "If you think that I can have fun in whatever you think is fun-"
"Hey, Candace," Stacy interrupted. "Check out this news article! It says here that the local garbage incinerator has frozen over!" Candace's eyes widened, remembering what she said earlier.
"Oh, okay," sighed Candace. "I'll join."
"Come on, Candace," assured Jeremy. "It'll be fun." Candace smiled. At least she would be with Jeremy. And so four teams were formed. There was Team Phineas, consisting of Phineas, Ferb, Isabella, and Katie, one of the Fireside Girls. Team Candace had Candace, Jeremy, Stacy, and Jenny. Team Buford was formed by Buford, Baljeet, Django, and Ginger, another Fireside Girl. And finally, Team Fireside had Gretchen, Adyson, Millie, and Holly, the other Fireside Girls.
Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!
Perry drove his hover car to the top floor of the building and burst in, only to find that the good doctor wasn't even there. Confused, Perry started looking around the room, wondering if the scientist reported to be in was a setup.
Doofenshmirtz's Building is Empty!
Meanwhile, down below at the entrance to the lobby, Dr. Doofenshmirtz and his organization were making preparations for his newest scheme. They had a desk with built-in microphones and a stand-up video camera hooked up to a rather small device.
"You said you were expecting your nemesis to show up any minute and he's late!" said Rodney.
"Well, maybe he got lost and had to ask for directions," replied Doofenshmirtz.
"If you ask me, I think he doesn't know we're down here, so I suggest we start our evil plan right away."
"Now don't be so hasty, Rodney. I'll be more assured when Perry the Platypus shows up so I can trap him-"
"I told you a thousand times!" interrupted Rodney. "I prefer to be called by my real name, Aloyse Everheart Elizabeth Otto Wolfgang Hypatia Gunther Galen Gary Cooper von Roddenstein!"
Doofenshmirtz stared blankly at him for a few seconds. Meanwhile, Perry looked down from Doof's balcony and by pulling out binoculars he managed to spot his nemesis along with the other evil scientists. So he strapped on a skydiving suit and jumped down below, opening his parachute just before hitting the ground.
Perry!
"Ah, Perry the Platypus!" said Heinz. "You took your time, didn't you? Wow, I guess Rodney saying his full name really does pass the time. Anyways, how uncanny of you to drop in. And by uncanny, I mean completely canny!" He quickly pushed a button on a remote he pulled out and Perry was trapped in a rope net as Doofenshmirtz laughed his evil laugh.
"A rope net? Really?" questioned Rodney.
"I can't hear you," retorted Heinz with fingers in his ears, pretending not to listen. He then turned to Perry. "Now that you're here and I have you right where I want you, I will now reveal my evil plan! We're going to announce L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.'s reign of terror all across the Tri-State Area so everyone will know who we are and fear us!"
"You already tried that once and it didn't work!" said Rodney, remembering their first meeting and trying to make their debut at the "Let's All Dance Till We're Sick" performance.
"Oh, who asked you, Rod-ney?" Doofenshmirtz said intentionally.
"I said I'd rather be called by my full name, Aloyse Everheart Elizabeth Otto Wolfga-"
"Oh, shut up!" snapped Heinz. "You know, you're not helping us get anywhere."
Back at the Danville Summer Olympics Stadium, hundreds of spectators had taken their seats ready to witness this amazing moment. On a big screen, each team was shown and each member had a display that read "FP: 0".
"All right, everybody!" declared Phineas. "We're just about ready to start!"
"Hey, Phineas, what's 'FP' mean?" asked Stacy.
"It means fun points!" answered Phineas. "This is all we're keeping track of during our Olympics!"
"Don't we at least get medals?" asked Buford.
"Nope. Not important," said Phineas. "We're just looking for fun and whoever gets the most fun points has obviously had the most fun!"
"You think there'd be a prize or something."
"Why bother? The greatest reward is finding the fun in anything you do!"
"And welcome to the Danville Summer Olympics!" said an announcer. "The teams are lined up in position and ready to go!"
"Have fun, everybody!" Phineas said to his fellow competitors. As Ferb sounded off his cap gun, using his homemade earplugs to block out the sound, their own Summer Olympics began!
We don't need to win to have fun
We've got our own Olympics for a day
All we gotta do is just get out there
Live for the moment and seize the day
As the Summer Olympics kicked off, each team was scoring fun points from participating in the events to show just how much fun each competitor was having.
We're gonna show you all our tricks
In our own Summer Olympics
As the events went on, each team scored points based on the adrenaline flow in each kid's body. Team Phineas first took the lead with 200 points, Team Candace was not far behind with 150 points, Team Buford had 120 points, and Team Fireside stepped their game up with 180 points.
Take aim and fire, strike it rich in fun
Make waves and smile, it's a day for fun
A day of summer is a day of play
And we're gonna live it up our own way
After roughly a half-hour worth of rounds, Team Phineas still had the lead at 400 points, with Team Candace starting to lag at 250 points, Team Buford at 200 points, and the Fireside Girls closing in with 320 points.
We got our own Olympics for a day
Live for the moment and seize the day
We're gonna show you all our tricks
In our own Summer Olympics
After an hour, Team Phineas still ended up strong and passionate for fun at 750 points, Team Candace had 600, Team Buford had 550, likely due to him doing what he did best with Baljeet and the scoreboard not counting it, and Team Fireside had 700 points, still in second.
Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz had just finished his preparations for his evil plan to announce the debut of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.
"What makes you think you can introduce our evil scientist community?" said Rodney, obviously unimpressed with Heinz.
"Because this time, we're going to force everyone to watch us on television!" declared Dr. Doofenshmirtz. "Perry the Platypus, you're watching this, too, right? You know I hate leaving you out." Perry the Platypus did not look amused, still trapped in the rope net. "Anyways… behold, the Broadcast-inator!" Doofenshmirtz proudly held up the small device from before that was connected to the stand-up video camera. "When activated, every television set in the Tri-State Area will show only what is being projected through that video camera. And since it's pointing to us, that means anybody who's watching television will be forced to see us and we'll finally make our debut."
"It's a beautiful summer day, you twit!" said Rodney. "Who's gonna be inside watching television on a day like this?"
"Oh, you're such a doubting Thomas," sighed Heinz. "Who signed you up for this job anyway?" He then activated his Broadcast-inator, which sent out signal waves from its antennae. "Yes! It's working, it's working! Let's get that video camera on!" The video camera was turned on and Dr. Doofenshmirtz stood in front of the microphones to prepare his speech. "Attention, good people of the Tri-State Area!" As he spoke, a few people who happened to be passing by became curious enough to stop and watch. Or maybe they didn't have much else to do. Among these people were Thaddeus and Thor, two kid brothers who once served as polar opposites in terms of personality to Phineas and Ferb.
"This is Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz and to all you viewers who are watching television, it is high time you know who we are! We are an organization of evil scientists dedicated to promoting evil. As an example, we've built a Garbage-Incinerator-Freeze-Over-inator and put the local garbage incinerator on ice!" As proof, he showed a photo of the invention and the same news article that Stacy showed Candace. "So in light of revealing our existence to the Tri-State Area, I am proud to introduce… the League Of Villainous Evildoers Maniacally United For Frightening Investments in Naughtiness!"
There was a bit of silence, but then the small gathering of people started laughing in amusement much to Doofenshmirtz's surprise. Only Thor didn't laugh.
"Promoting evil?" chuckled Thaddeus. "More like promoting your love for muffins!" And the people laughed again. Dr. Doofenshmirtz scowled.
"I told you we shouldn't have called ourselves L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.!" said Rodney.
"Well, what do you suggest, Mr. 'I-Have-a-Ridiculously-Long-Name' Rodney?" asked Heinz sarcastically.
"I said call me by my real name, Aloyse Everheart Elizabeth Otto Wolfgang Hypatia Gunther Galen Gary Cooper von Roddenstein!" Everyone, including Thaddeus, laughed even harder, much to Rodney's surprise. Thor was the only one not laughing because he was still stone-faced.
"See, this is what you get for wanting to be called by a ridiculously long name," said Heinz.
"You take that back!" snarled Rodney.
"Need I remind you that we're being broadcasted across the Tri-State Area and we're not setting a good example in the name of evil."
"Hahaha! Give it up, you losers!" said Thaddeus. "No one's watching television! Everyone's gone to the Danville Summer Olympics Stadium instead!" Both Doofenshmirtz and Rodney were surprised, as they could not believe what might just be another failure on their hands. As for Perry, he pulled a pocketknife out of his fedora and started cutting through the rope net.
"Wait a minute," said Doofenshmirtz. "What do you mean the Danville Summer Olympics Stadium? There is no Olympics Stadium!" Thor pointed in the direction where the top of the stadium could be seen.
"Oh, yes there is!" said Thaddeus. "Two jerks who think they're better than us built that thing and now everyone in Danville has gone to watch some stupid Olympics." Doofenshmirtz looked exasperated.
Meanwhile, back the Danville Summer Olympics Stadium, the games were wrapping up and the finals were about to begin. Team Phineas had 850 points, Team Candace had 800, Team Buford had 750, and Team Fireside had 810.
"Looks like our team has had the most fun so far," said Phineas, checking the scoreboard. "How are the rest of you guys doing?"
"Ah, you make having fun look easy, Dinner Bell!" said Buford, somewhat disgruntled.
"Come on, Buford," insisted Phineas. "Remember the idea is to have fun, not focus on scoring points. Otherwise, you're missing out on the real point."
"That's a pun if I ever heard one."
"Candace, this is it," declared Stacy. "This is your chance to prove to your brothers how much fun you can have. Now let's make the rest of this day count like we've never counted before!" Candace looked vigilantly determined to seize the day.
"The finals are starting!" announced Phineas. "Take your positions, teams! Here we go!" Ferb fired off his cap gun, earplugs in his ears again, and the finals kicked off in a blaze of glory, with Team Candace shining!
Summer, I love summer,
Give me that summer time,
Summer, every 86,400 seconds that pass…
Gotta make summer last!
With Candace's help, her team pumped for everything it was worth. Having never felt so alive, Candace ultimately helped her team rise to 1000 points just as the events came to a close. Team Phineas finished a close second with 950 points and Team Buford and Team Fireside tied for the bronze with 920 points. All four teams had showed their hype and partaking in the Danville Summer Olympics hosted by Phineas and Ferb gave them one of the greatest opportunities ever to seize the day.
"And with a total of 1,000 fun points, Team Candace has had the most fun at the Danville Summer Olympics!" announced Phineas. "Congratulations, Team Candace!"
"Candace! That was incredible!" said Jeremy, impressed. "You really showed your brothers you can have a whole lot of fun! I loved watching you on that final stretch best of all." Candace giggled and blushed. Just then, Phineas handed her a special trophy, which included her team's score and heads of her and her brothers engraved onto it.
"What's this?" she asked.
"It's for you, sis," said Phineas. "We're glad you had fun today, so Ferb and I wanted to give you a little gift for joining in and seizing the day. Candace, you can have fun whenever you want!" Seeing the faces of herself with her brothers brought tears of joy to her eyes, but then she suddenly heard Linda's car come into their driveway.
"Mom! I don't believe it! Mom's home! And I have all the proof I need to bust my brothers!" She ran out of the backyard, and on the scoreboard, Team Candace's score suddenly dropped to zero.
Phineas was slightly astonished, seeing the score drop dramatically.
"Buford, you were supposed to turn the scoreboard off," he said.
"Look who's talking," sneered Buford. "You said there were no prizes."
"What, you mean Candace's trophy? That wasn't a prize. That was a gift!"
"Prize, gift, whatever, it's the same thing."
Meanwhile, back in front of the Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated building, Perry was still cutting through the rope net that held him with his pocketknife.
"Okay, no more playing around!" declared Dr. Doofenshmirtz. "If the people of the Tri-State Area won't take us seriously the easy way, then we'll just have to make them! It just so happens that I have built… a Disintevaporater Ray!" He pulled out a blaster which appeared to have roughly the same buttons and gadgets from his previous Disinevaporater imprinted on it. "With one blast from this, anything it hits will be instantly disintevaporated! And by getting rid of that giant stadium, not only will people start watching us on T.V., but they'll also learn to fear us as well!" The good doctor took aim. "Now let's make sure I get the angle just right…" But it just so happened that Perry got himself out of the rope net at this time. "What the…?! Perry the Platy-oomph!" Perry instantly jump-kicked Dr. Doofenshmirtz, causing him to drop his weapon, which fired, but missed the giant stadium entirely!
"I told you a rope net wouldn't hold him," said Rodney.
"What? You never said that?!" said Dr. Doofenshmirtz, now being pinned by Perry. "Oh sure, now you tell me! Some evil scientist you are!"
Meanwhile, in the Flynn-Fletcher driveway…
"Mom, mom, mom!" shouted Candace, carrying her trophy, rushed to Linda, who was getting out of her car. "You gotta see this! Look at this! This is undeniable proof that Phineas and Ferb…" Linda took a good look at the trophy Candace was holding.
"Candace? Did your brothers make that for you? Oh, that is so sweet of them!"
"What?"
"You see, Candace? You have the most wonderful brothers in the world. And it looks they showed you how to have fun after all. I'm so glad. I'll go make them some lemonade." Candace was in disbelief at first, but then noticed some small writing beneath her score.
"Hm? What's this?" It read 'Best Fun-Loving Sister Ever'. Candace started to have second thoughts about busting her brothers. This would be no different than having tried to bust Phineas on his birthday after he made his most heartwarming speech that day. "Oh, why do I keep doing stupid things like this?!" she moaned, hitting her head on the trophy in frustration. At the stadium, Phineas was now talking with a man in a suit who spoke with a British accent.
"This is a very impressive stadium," he said. "It's amazing that you two kids are the ones who built this. We could certainly use it for the upcoming 2012 Olympics in London. What do you say, Phineas?"
"Sounds good," Phineas agreed. "You can have it. We're done with it."
"Jolly good." And about five helicopters came swinging by with grappling hooks, attaching to the stadium.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz got to his feet and quickly grabbed his Disintevaporter Ray.
"Ha, ha! This time, Perry the Platypus, I shall disintevaporate you!" He fired, but missed. As Dr. Doofenshmirtz continued to try to hit him, Perry kept leaping every which way, causing the other evil scientists to scatter for their lives. Rodney ducked as a ray narrowly missed him.
"Will you watch where you're firing!" he shouted. "You almost disintevaporated my head!"
"Well, wouldn't that have been an improvement, Rod-ney?!" Dr. Doofenshmirtz snapped. Perry leapt up and smacked him in the head again, causing the ray to discharge towards the giant stadium again, but it missed entirely, shooting only between the five helicopters, now hoisting the stadium up into the air. Perry now stood in front of the Broadcast-inator as Dr. Doofenshmirtz prepared to pull the trigger again. "Oh, ho! I see what you're doing, Perry the Platypus! I'm going to fire, and you're going to jump, causing me to disintevaporate the Broadcast-inator! Nice try but you can't trick me that easily." He had closed his eyes and folded his arms with dignity, giving Perry another edge to kick him in the face and drop his weapon. This time, Perry took hold of it and zapped the Broadcast-inator himself. "No! My Broadcast-inator!" And the device was gone. Next, Perry threw the Disintevaporater Ray on the ground as hard as he could, smashing it to pieces, and stomped on it. "Ah! My Disinevaporater Ray!" Dr. Doofenshmirtz desperately went through the pieces as Perry made a getaway with his hang-glider. "Curse you, Perry the Platypus!"
Perry glided through the city until he came to the Flynn-Fletcher residence and dropped in just as the gigantic stadium was carried away from the backyard and Linda came with lemonade for everyone.
"Hi, kids! Who wants lemonade?" Perry showed up and chattered. "Oh, there you are, Perry!"
"Me! Buford wants lemonade!" shouted Buford, as he and everyone else started helping themselves. Candace came into the backyard, still holding her trophy, but now saw that the stadium was gone, as she expected. But this time, she wasn't frustrated. Again, she looked at the words written below her score and smiled.
"Oh, well."
