Phineas, Ezra, Gus, Radio, and Lampy sat in the Happiness Hotel's bathroom, developing the pictures.
"I can't believe she wasn't Mulan," sighed Phineas.
Ezra rolled his eyes. "I can't believe you couldn't tell that she wasn't Mulan."
"You knew?" said Phineas, a little hurt.
"We've seen the movie, genius," grumbled Gus.
"She obviously had the hots for you," the Radio pointed out.
"Or maybe she was just trying to make fun of me," said Phineas.
Ezra groaned. "No one goes through that much trouble to make fun of people except us."
Gus noticed Lampy looking depressed. "What's your problem?"
"A lamp is only as good as its' bulb, and I've lost mine."
"Get over it!" cried Ezra. "Once we get money, we'll by you the biggest watts we can!"
Lampy cheered up a little. "You mean it?"
The Orange Bird angrily banged on the door. "Hey! Some people need to use the can, guys!"
"And some people need to incriminate others!" called Gus.
"Well, I can't hold it!" replied the bird.
"Gurgi is in such pain!" cried another voice outside.
Phineas stared in shock at the developing picture. "Hey, the thief is that guy the fake Mulan was dancing with!"
Suddenly, the door was broken down by Sam and Ollie's cannon. "I knew there was a reason we had this thing," said Sam.
"There goes the picture..." sighed Ezra, as the exposed photo dissolved.
"Crap," said Gus.
The Orange Bird fluttered in. "Yeah, well, some of us need to take a crap."
"That's disgusting!" moaned Phineas. "I'm going for a walk, guys."

Phineas found himself sitting on a bench at the park. A scruffy-looking man sat next to him. "You look like you've got troubles, friend."
"I sure do," said Phineas. "See, there was this---"
"Wait, don't tell me. I've heard this story millions of times. This movie comes out. Lilo and Stitch. You like it, even though the emotion at the end is forced as hell. You even buy a little plush alien, 'cause he's adorable. Then Stitch: The Movie comes out. You watch it, and it's okay, but it's obviously just there to set up for the TV series. This is when things get bad. The series is cliché in many senses. There's a 'go inside someone's body' episode, a 'go back in time' episode, a 'stuck with someone you hate' episode, a few 'competition' episodes, an 'amnesia' episode, a 'switch bodies' episode, a 'people fall in love thanks to magic' episode, the list goes on and on. What's wrong with these writers? (Of course, this whole thing we're in is The Great Muppet Caper, but that's besides the point.) Every episode has a tacked-on preachy moral as well. You only watch it for the funny guy with all the sandwiches. Then Lilo and Stitch 2 comes out. But wait a second, wasn't Stitch: The Movie the second one? Shouldn't Stitch Has a Glitch be Lilo and Stitch 3? The Tarzan series pulled the same thing, actually. If this ain't bad enough, he gets his own ride and then a fourth movie! Leroy and Stitch. Thankfully, this wraps the whole thing up. Even Aladdin and The Lion King only had two sequels! (And apparently, there's a Little Mermaid sequel coming up as well). So you're sick of Stitch. And that, my friend, is your story."
Phineas just stared at him. "Wow. You are one hundred percent wrong. I mean, none of what you said has been right."
"So you're a Stitch fan?" asked the man.
"No, you're right about that, as cute as he is...look, I'm in the middle of a story right now, so..."
"Oh, sorry. I'll just be going," the man started to leave, but then turned around. "Wait, would you like to buy a Stitch plush?"
"Get out of here!" shouted Phineas. From a distance, he saw Ming-Na, also going for a walk. "You!" he hissed, dramatically pointing a finger at her. "You're the fake Mulan!"
"I was just..."
"I bet you don't know anything about Disney!"
"I do too!"
"Always dancing with other guys..."
Ming-Na smiled. "Are you jealous?"
"No..."
"You are! You are, you are, you are!"
"I'm leaving."
Ming-Na quickly stopped the ghost. "Wait! The only reason I lied was because...I wanted to be with you."
She and Phineas looked into each other's eyes. Within a few minutes, they were on bikes, riding through the park.
Phineas: Pretty day
Sunny sky
Lovely pictures
Dance in your eyes
Ming-Na: It all seems so right
Phineas: It all feels so rare
Ming-Na: Summer soft
Sudden breeze
Watch the wind
Play tag in the trees
Both: The world is so bright
So perfectly fair
Chorus: Lovers sing
Children dance
For a minute
We've got a chance
Phineas: Why couldn't we fly
Ming-Na: I know we'd get by
Chorus: Sunny sky
Pretty day
Just a push
And we're on the way
Yes couldn't we ride
Both: Side by side
Chorus and Ming-Na: Why couldn't we fly
Phineas: I know we'd get by
(Gus rides over)
Gus: Sunny sky
(Ezra, who is obviously having a hard time, rides by and abruptly crashes into a tree)
Ezra: AAAAAHHHHH! ...Pretty day
(Toaster, Radio, Lampy, and Blankey ride by on a chair being pulled by Kirby)
Appliances: Just a push
And we're on the way
(Everyone else rides over as well)
Ollie: Yes couldn't we ride
Phineas and Ming-Na: Side by side
All: Couldn't we ride
Everyone continued through the park, although Ezra hitched a ride himself.

The man in the park's views on Stitch are also mine. I love the alien, but there's a thing as too much.
