The bus full of characters pulled up in front of the Crystal Palace. The Hitchhikers and Ming-Na got out, but Ezra stopped everyone else. "Okay, the only guys who can come in with us are the appliances, 'cause they don't actually eat anything."

The Radio eagerly hopped off. "Wonderful!" He waved his antenna at the others. "I always knew I was holier than thou!"

"What a snob," grumbled the Orange Bird. He and the others drove away.

Ming-Na and the others looked around the classy Crystal Palace. A band was even there, playing "Steppin' Out With a Star."

"Wow," marveled Ming-Na, "what I nice place."

Phineas sat down and checked the menu. "Oh my," he whispered to Ezra. "The Mickey Mouse pancakes alone will cost us way too much!"

Ezra grinned. "Relax, I have an idea. Go and dance with 'Mulan.'"

"Will do!"

"Good thing this wasn't a character meal," said Gus, "or we'd be doomed."

"So what's the plan?" asked Lampy.

"Will it be hard?" Blankey said quietly.

"Not at all!" said Ezra, grabbing the Toaster. "All we need to do is take some napkins, stuff them in the Toaster and pass them off as lumpy meat!"

"GAH!" squealed the Toaster, as the napkins were stuffed into his slots. "I'm being violated!"

"Look," Ezra said, jamming more napkins in, "the Muppets are technically violated everyday. Get over it."

"This is the worst plan in the world," groaned Kirby.

"Ooh, the vacuum is insulting me," Ezra shot back. "You suck!"

"Real clever."

Gus hopped out of his seat. "Looks like it's up to Gus..." He ran over to a random person and took a picture of him. "Ten bucks, please."

"I don't want my picture taken!" protested the man.

"Too late."

"Will you get out of here?"

Gus raised his ball and chain. "Don't make me smack you!"

Ezra quickly pulled the little ghost away. "We can ambush him in the parking lot, but not here. Now, I think I'll try to toast the napkins again. I he screws it up, I'm taking him to the junkyard!" He turned to Blankey. "I'm just kidding!" He turned back to the Toaster. "No I'm not!" He turned to Blankey again. "Don't worry, I am."

As all this was happening, Mulan came in with Mushu. What a coincidence!

"So he was asking about the stone dragon?" said Mushu. "He's after it, man!"

"I think everything will be fine. When he found out it was missing a hand, he backed off."

"Still," said the dragon. He looked out onto the dance floor. "Hey, isn't that the crazy girl YOU hired?"

Phineas was indeed dancing with Mulan. "Um, could we talk about the Haunted Mansion now?"

"The what?" said Ming-Na.

"The Haunted Mansion," repeated Phineas. "The ride I'm from."

"Right, right, sorry. I know. I'm just lost in your eyes."

Phineas smiled awkwardly. "Oh...okay..."

Nick, meanwhile, had come as well and was hiding with three attractive women: Carla, Marla, and Darla. "Okay, girls, you know what to do. Spread out."

Chorus: The first time you see her

No bolt from the blue

Ming-Na: Just something so quiet

That's waiting for you

Chorus: With no one to tell you

Where you've got to go

Ming-Na: The first time it happens

You know

Phineas: The first time you see her

No magical change

No angels appearing

No dreams to arrange

Chorus: Just warmer and colder

Than springtime or snow

Phineas: The first time it happens

You know

Chorus: And so you fall

And how complete it is

And for each new moment that it lasts

How sweet it is

Both: The first time together

How simple, how rare

Ming-Na: And just when you thought

You'd forgot how to care

Phineas: And though you feel much more

Than you'd dare to show

Both: The first time it happens

You know

Phineas stumbled back to the table, landing on Kirby. "Watch it!" growled the vacuum.

"Good job!" smiled the Toaster. "You're dancing with the stars!"

"I think that's a TV show," said Lampy.

Phineas just looked onto the dance floor. "She's a great dancer!"

Chorus: The first time you see her

No magical change

No angels appearing

No dreams to arrange

Just warmer and colder

Than springtime or snow

The first time it happens

You know

"Wow, what a number!" cheered the Radio.

Nick was enchanted himself with Ming-Na. "Look at that woman out there..."

"Don't get distracted," warned Marla.

"But she's amazing..." sighed Nick.

"You know," remarked Phineas, "I didn't realize Mulan could dance."

Ezra and Gus gave eachother a look. "Uh...yeah."

Suddenly, Nick burst into the scene and started dancing with Ming-Na.

Chorus: And just when you thought

You'd forgot how to care

For the first time

For the first time

The first time it happens

The moment it happens

And suddenly there's a whole new world

The first time it happens

The first time it happens

The first time it happens

You know!

Just as the song finished, the lights went out. In the darkness, everyone heard Mulan scream: "The dragon!"

Hearing this, Gus took a flash picture.

"What's going on!" Lampy turned on his light and started scanning the room, only to be pushed off the table by someone (Darla, actually). "Holy mother of Edison!" squealed the lamp. "My bulb broke!"

The lights come back on, revealing a shocked Mulan.

"What happened!" cried Mushu.

"The stone dragon hand was stolen!" gasped Mulan.

"Dang."

Phineas looked at the animated woman and finally did some math. "Wait a second...Mulan owns the stone dragon, so..." He turned back to Ming-Na, who disappeared out the door, leaving her glass slipper behind.

"I got a picture of the thief!" whispered Gus.

Phineas said nothing. He just picked up the slipper and gazed longingly at it.

...wait, did I just say "glass slipper?"
