Ariel and Ezra strolled down Main Street. "Gee, it's too bad you're mute and all. But these little papers you keep slipping me with southern pickup lines are...funny."
"Well," thought Ezra, "she's sort of a Mary Sue character, but she's MY Mary Sue character!"
Suddenly, Ariel turned around. "Hey...I think that guy was leering at me..." She karate chopped a random guy. "LAY OFF!"
"Wow," thought Ezra.
Gus and Phineas watched Ariel and Ezra from the distance. "Well, aside from him combing his hair with a fork," said Gus, "their date is going well."
"Why did he do that, anyway?" asked Phineas.
"Beats me. When do they kiss?"
"Relax, things will go well!"
Ariel, meanwhile, was on alert again. "Hey, I think that guy bumped into me on purpose!" Ariel punched someone. "Touch me and die!"
"I can't kiss her!" thought Ezra. "If I touch her, she'll destroy me! This girl is crazy! ...wow, she's so great! She's not a Mary Sue character! She's just like me! She might even hate 'Mike's Supershort Show!' I GOTTA TALK!"

Back at the mansion, everyone was searching for the three missing ghosts. "Where did those three go?" wondered Gracey.
"No sign of them," reported a Raven. "Caw! Leota picked up vibes of a song being sang at the Fantasmic stage last night. Something about Ursula and the villains."
"Trust me, Ezra and the villains hate each other. They're obviously somewhere else."
As Gracey left, Phineas and Gus snuck in.
"Ghosts!" called Phineas. "We need help! All 996 of you!"
"But don't tell Gracey!" added Gus.

Ezra and Ariel were in a boat floating through Typhoon Lagoon after it closed. The waves were, of course, turned off. "Being a Cast Member has its advantages, you know," smiled Ariel. "My favorite ride is the Haunted Mansion. You remind me of it, for some reason..."
"Gottatalkgottatalkgottatalk.." Ezra thought frantically.
Phineas, Gus, and the others watched. Even Mr. Bluebird was there. "If my pickup lines didn't make her go psycho on him, then nothing will!" chirped the little bird. "He can make the first move if he wants."
"He's obviously not taking that risk," said Phineas. "It looks like this girl's gotta do it herself."
Gus smiled. "I have an idea."
"Involving song?" hoped Phineas.
"Sure, why not?"
Mr. Bluebird flew over the couple. "I get it! A romantic tune! Let me see...SOONER OR LATER BRER RABBIT IS GONNA COME HOME..."
"What's he doing out of Splash Mountain?" wondered Ariel. "Weird guy, huh? I sure wish Disney would just release that movie."
"ME TOO!" thought Ezra.
Phineas: First, we have to create the mood. Percussion...Strings...Winds...Words...
There you see him
Sitting there across the way
He don't got a lot to say
But there's something about him
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the guy
Gus: Yes, you want him
Look at him, you know you do
Possible he wants you too
There is one way to ask him
It don't take a word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the guy
Ghosts: Sha la la la la la
My oh my
Look like the girl's too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the guy
Sha la la la la la
Ain't that sad?
Ain't it a shame?
Too bad, she's gonna miss the guy
"I wish I knew your name," said Ariel. "Is it Timmy? Mortimer?"
A tiny pop-up ghost flew by. "It's Ezra."
"Ezra?" guessed Ariel. Ezra happily nodded. Ariel smiled. "Huh. I don't know why...but I like that name."
Gus poured something into the pool. "It's pink dye! It'll make the scene look romantic!"
"It looks more tacky than romantic," said Phineas.
"Then it's Disney!" cheered Mr. Bluebird and Gus.
Phineas: Now's your moment
Floating in Typhoon Lagoon
Wow, you better do it soon
No time will be better
Gus: He don't say a word
And he won't say a word
Until you kiss the guy
Ghosts: Sha la la la la la
Don't be scared
You got the mood prepared
Go on and kiss the guy
Sha la la la la la
Don't stop now
Don't try to hide it how
You want to kiss the guy
Sha la la la la la
Float along
And listen to the song
The song say kiss the guy
Sha la la la la
The music play
Do what the music say
You got to kiss the guy
You've got to kiss the guy
You wanna kiss the guy
You've gotta kiss the guy
Go on and kiss the guy
Pain and Panic scurried to the pool's controls just as Ariel and Ezra were about to kiss. The imps turned on the waves, causing the boat to be tipped over.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ursula watched all of this through a crystal ball. "Hades, I thought you said Pain and Panic were incompetent!"
"Eh, they usually are. That was pretty close, though."
"Indeed. I must take matters into my own tentacles and turn into a man!"
Hades backed away, disturbed. "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Didn't know you were that way. Maybe we should get someone else to do that. I've always had suspicions about that gorilla in Tarzan..."
"You're a witty one. Fine! Your imps can shape shift, so they'll do it! We can even use the ghost's voice."
"THEM! I just said they were lucky tonight!"
"Less work for us," grinned Ursula.
"Let's do it."
