The next few days, Ezra dreamily floated through the mansion, picking petals off dead flowers he had found in the conservatory. Phineas and Gus paced nearby.

"Okay," said Phineas, "Gracey doesn't know yet."

"About what?" asked Gus.

"You know what! The whole rescue thing!"

"Oh yeah. Good times, man."

"If the others find out..." Phineas mumbled. "Oh no! What if that bird told all the critters in Chick-a-pin Hill?"

Gus shrugged. "Eh, as long as they speak in thick offensive dialect, no one's gonna understand them."

Ezra, meanwhile, was planning to himself. "I gotta do something romantic to get her attention! Woo her! WOO!"

Phineas grabbed his legs and pulled him down. "Man, you've got to take an interest to someone in here! Little Leota's not too bad looking, actually."

"She's EVIL!" yelled Ezra. "I'm just crazy! Big difference. Besides, I can't stand her."

"What about Emily?"

"Hatchet Emily? Nah."

"Uh...Bea?"

"Actually-NO! That cast member is the only one for me!"

Gus's eyes teared up. "Don't you like us anymore?"

"Of course I do! I love you guys! I love this mansion! I love the organ music...wait, that's calypso music. Is someone gonna sing?"

Phineas sprang up. "Finally!"

"Our own number!" cried Gus.

Phineas: The dust can always be grayer

In somebody else's room

You dream about going out there

But that may lead to your doom

Gus: Just look at the dark around you

Right here on this dusty floor

Such wonderful freaks surround you

What more are you looking for?

Both: Haunted Mansion

Haunted Mansion

Phineas: Trust me it's better

Gus: That girl, forget her

Both: Relationship's done

Out in that park they work all day

And in the sun they bake away

Sad times are rare, an'

We have fun scarin'

Haunted Mansion

Busts: Down here all the spooks are happy

Phineas: For us, scaring is an art

Busts: The spooks out there sure ain't happy

Gus: They're plush and they're on that cart

Busts: But spooks on the cart are lucky

Soon someone will come around

For some crazy kid will take them

Plush: Who knows where they'll next be found

Ballroom Ghosts: Haunted Mansion

Haunted Mansion

Frowning Cast Members

We all remembers

They're so much fun

Gargoyles: We're like some zombie mousketeers

Hatbox Ghost: All of us from great Imagineers

Suit of Armor: We're satisfied now

Pop-Up Ghosts: Least, we've implied now

Phineas and Gus: Haunted Mansion

Haunted Mansion

Since death is sweet here

We got the beat here

It's never shunned

Gus: Even Leota and her brat

Loosen up, have fun (think of that!)

We got the "spirit"

You got to hear it

All: Haunted Mansion
Soon the mansion was full of dancing ghosts. Phineas ran over to Ezra. "See?"

"As fun as this song is," admitted Ezra, "I'm not won over yet."

Gus ran over to a speaker and turned up the music. "Then we'll keep trying!"

All: Haunted Mansion

Haunted Mansion

When the organ

Makes sounds of morgues an'

It's music to me

In Disney World and Disneyland

We got the Phantom Five, what a band

Each singing bust there

Knows fun's a must here

Haunted Mansion

Each ghostly dog here

Howls through the fog here

Haunted Mansion

Each floating head here

Is good and dead here

We don't need fountains

Or the "Flash Mountain"

Yeah, we're in luck here

Ezra: Technically stuck here

All: Haunted Mansion

Phineas threw out his arms in a big finish. "There! Ezra? Ezra?" The ghost was gone.

"Man, he just keeps coming and going," said Gus.

A ghost from "Lonesome Ghosts" flew over. "Hey, guys! The master's looking for you!"

Gus looked nervously at Phineas. "Us? Uh-oh."

Phineas nearly fainted. "What if he found out about Ezra's room of wonders?"

"What wonders?" said a voice. Phineas whirled around to find George Gracey standing right behind him.

"Uh...as in Wonderland?" said the nervous ghost. "Man, that caterpillar with the hookah pipe cracks me up!"

Ezra was in his room, sculpting a statue of the cast member. "Man, I've outdone myself."

"You certainly have." George stood in the doorway.

Ezra grinned. "Uh...can I offer you a genuine Wonderland hookah pipe?"

"Don't blink." Letoa suddenly flew in and destroyed all of the pictures in a few seconds with her powers. Ezra gazed at what once held thousands of pictures of beautiful women.

"Just you wait!" he shrieked. "Just you wait! I'll get more pictures! More, more, more! Everything I wanted AND MORE!" Ezra flew out.

"Think I was too hard?" Gracey asked Leota.

"Like your head!" Ezra yelled from down the hall.

"No, he needed it," said Leota.

"Like you need a kick in the butt!" yelled Ezra. "Which you don't have!"

"He's waiting around the hall to insult us," grumbled Gracey.

"Sure am!" Ezra flew out of the mansion and across the park. "I gotta cool off...Blizzard Beach time."

Phineas and Gus watched. "Well, at least he's still sorta joking," said Phineas.

"Yeah, but we better follow him."


Honestly, I think a few of these scenes are rushed, but I hated the destruction of the grotto scene as a kid. I would always run away (then again, a lot of stuff scared me. I was a wimp).
