"What do you want?" said Candace, rolling her eyes off her magazine and onto Phineas.
"Do you use a banana as a communication device often?"
"Do I use a banana as a what?"
"As a phone."
"Do I use a banana as a phone?" asked Candace.
"Yeah. Ferb and I thought, since we heard you say—"
"Don't say it," said Candace.
"Don't say what?"
"Just don't say it," said Candace, turning back to her magazine. Phineas exchanged a look with Ferb.
"Candace," said Phineas, turning back to Candace, "you didn't answer our question."
"That's because I'm pretending you didn't ask it."
"Why?"
"Agh! I'm trying to read here! Go away!"
"But what about the banana?"
"That's it. I'm going to my room," said Candace, standing up from the couch. She turned around and pointed at the two boys. "Stay here."
Phineas stared as Candace stomped out.
"You're right, Ferb," said Phineas, glancing at his brother. "I guess we weren't meant to know."
