While Isabella was working on her plan, Phineas & Ferb were putting the finishing touches on their big idea for the day.

"Okay Ferb, move the glass over the pizza" Phineas called to his brother, who was nearby in a crane. Ferb gave an OK sign with his hands and began moving a large glass lens over the pizza so the sun could bake it.

"Excellent. Once it's done, we can give a piece to everyone in Danville" Phineas said happily. "Pretty good, don't you think Perry? Hey, where's Perry?"

Of course, unknown to his owners, Perry had slipped away and made his way over to a lawn gnome. He pulled it forward and a patch of grass opened up, with Perry sliding down a tube into his secret underground base.

"Ahh Agent P" Major Monogram said from the viewscreen "sorry we haven't contacted you in awhile, but we've been having some problems of our own. Your one-time nemesis, the Regurgitator, has escaped from our maximum security detention facility. We've been reviewing security footage to try and learn how he got out, but so far, nothing."

"It's almost as if he 'spewed out' of our prison" Carl added.

"Carl, we talked about this, your jokes aren't funny" Monogram replied "anyway, there's been no new activity by Doofenshmirtz, and that worries me. We suspect he's holed up and planning some new nefarious scheme. Your mission is to find out what he's up to."

Perry saluted his boss and got into his flying pod, heading off towards the lair of his mad scientist foe.

Back on the lawn of the Fletcher-Flynn house, Todd prepared to make his move.

"Hey kid, this giant pizza is real cool. A real work of art."

"Thanks, glad you like it."

"You know, I bet you and your bro make stuff like this all the time" Todd added "why, you could probably make anything."

"I guess" Phineas replied "I don't really think about that."

"But what if you did?" Todd said "let's say hypothetically, if you wanted to make a giant soda machine with any flavor. Could you do that?"

"Sure, probably" Phineas replied "but Ferb and I don't just make stuff for no reason. We do it to help pass the time until fall. Boy, it sure has been a long summer this year."

"Yeah, that's great" Todd replied, uninterested "but I'm urging you to think about the people here. How are they going to eat giant pizza without something to drink?"

"Hmm, I'll admit, I didn't think of that" Phineas said "lucky for us you were here."

"You have no idea kid" Todd said "I suspect this is going to be the beginning of a beautiful partner…er, friendship."

"Did you just correct yourself mid-sentence?"

"No."

Jingle: Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!

Agent P's jet pulled up to the home base of his evil adversary; pulling a grapping gun from his fedora, he fired it into the edge of the roof and rappelled down to a nearby window. Then he swung inside, and checking to make sure no one was around, headed off towards the main room.

"Well it took awhile, but it's nearly complete" Doofenshmirtz said, marveling over something. Before he could do anything else, the door was thrown open.

"Perry the Platypus, what an unexpected surprise. Seriously, this is totally unexpected, what are you even doing here?"

Perry didn't respond (although he couldn't anyway), but just stared at the doc.

"Oh man, did Monogram send you here because I haven't done any evil for a few days?" Perry nodded "well there's a good reason for that; I've been doing some re-modeling. That's right, I'm getting rid of all my old inventions I don't need anymore, to make room for more evil inventions, and maybe a futon, or an extra couch, or something. So, I'll definitely have an evil plan for you to stop tomorrow, but today, I'm just getting rid of stuff."

"Do you still want the Shrinkaspheria?" Norm asked, entering the room holding the old device.

"Well, my original shrinking plans didn't work out" Doofenshmirtz replied "but I might need it if I wanted to shrink some furniture, or my stupid brother's office or something. Yeah okay, keep it."

Perry, seeing there was no threat, just left the room.

"Oh and that man called again regarding a potential merger" Norm added "what shall I tell him?"

"I'm meeting with him later today" Doofenshmirtz replied "if things work out, I'll have all sorts of new gadgets to help me wreak havoc across the Tri-State area!"

Back at the Fletcher-Flynn house, Candace was watching things from her room with a devilish smirk.

"Go ahead and finish your mammoth pizza" she said, "because I have all the proof I need to show mom and you two are going to get it."

"What punishment exactly do you think your mom is going to give them?" Riley asked from a corner of the room "that maybe she's going to ground them for making a giant pizza?"

"I told you to keep out of this!" Candace said "you don't know what I deal with every day."

"I have a little brother too, you know."

"Yeah, but he doesn't build giant things in the backyard."

"No, but he's often embarrassing me, or playing tricks on me" Riley said "but I don't attempt to get him in trouble for no reason."

"Look, you don't get it, okay?"

"Yeah, well, I guess I don't want to understand it" Riley said, ignoring Candace and reading her book.

Candace ignored her and looked out the window again. "I haven't been this excited since I met Kim Possible."

"Hold the phone" Riley said "you know Kim Possible?"

"Know her? We're practically friends" Candace replied "well Facebook friends, but still. I even helped her on a mission once. Pretty cool huh?"

"Not really, so did I."

"What? You're lying! How did some plain-jane like you meet Kim Possible?"

"I could ask you the same question" Riley countered.

"She visited here once 'cause that Drakken guy was working with some weird scientist guy, or something" Candace said "so then I visited her, and we fought Drakken and that other guy and became friends. What about you?"

"My uncle agreed to donate money to charity if she came and visited me" Riley explained "then Professor Dementor showed up and…well, I can't say anymore."

"Yeah, 'cause you're making it all up!" Candace retorted

"Believe what you want, I know what happened" Riley said, going back to her book.

"Well, lying or not, being a Kim Possible fan makes you okay in my book" Candace said "this might not be such a bad arrangement after all."

"See guys, a little creative suggestion and you can get what you want" Todd said, as he witnessed Phineas & Ferb working on their soda machine.

"Yeah, but that was easy to tie into the pizza thing" Jacobo replied "let's see you try something harder."

"Like what?"

"It would be cool to have a football field" Jacobo said "make it happen."

"Can I get a living Princess Cuddlebug? With the cuteness and the hugging and the 'oh, the cuteness hurts'" Shelton asked.

"Okay, we're ignoring you from now on" Todd told him.

Todd then made his way over to Phineas & Ferb, who were descending a ladder they had used to scale the large soda dispenser they had built.

"Okay Ferb, looks good" Phineas told his brother "all we need to do is get some carbon dioxide in this thing, and there will be fountain drinks for everyone in Danville."

"Wow, you guys do good work" Todd commented.

"We try" Phineas replied "and thanks again for the soda suggestion."

"You're welcome" Todd replied "say, you know what goes good with pizza and soda? Football; you guys should turn your backyard into a giant football field."

"Thanks, but nobody here really likes football."

"How do you know? Did you ask them?" Todd enquired "besides, think how awesome it would be."

"Maybe we'll put that on the list for tomorrow" Phineas said "we usually only have time for one big idea per day. Speaking of which, we need to get this pizza cut and sent to the citizens before it gets too late." The young genius surveyed his backyard "where are Isabella and Baljeet? We sure could use their help."

"My friends and I would be happy to help you" Todd said.

"Really?"

"Sure, and we'd be happy to help you think up an idea for tomorrow too."

"Okay, let me just get the cutter ready" Phineas said, as he wandered off. Once he did, Jacobo & Shelton ran over to their pal.

"Well, am I getting a football field?"

"And a Princess Cuddlebug to love?"

"Okay first off, Shelton, we said we were ignoring all your suggestions from now on" Todd replied "and secondly, I haven't gotten a field made yet, but trust me, once we help these guys with their pizza plan, we'll having them eating out of our hands. Not literally, of course."

Back inside the house, Lawrence had taken Dick to the living room.

"While our wives talk about the good old days, I thought we men could get to know each other" he said "so besides stunts, what else are you into?"

"Oooh, I like exploding stuff!"

"I see" Lawrence replied "I was thinking more along the lines of a hobby."

"Exploding stuff is my hobby" Dick explained "besides, my job doesn't leave me much free time, what with the planning, and the injuries, and the adding rockets to things that don't need rockets on them.

"Your life certainly is…exciting" Lawrence replied, shocked by Dick's words.

"Yeah it's a good existence" Dick said.

"Now me, I collect and sell antiques" Lawrence explained "but I'm sure that wouldn't interest someone like you, who risks his life on a regular basis."

"It could" Dick said "you have any PEZ dispensers?"

"Perhaps" Lawrence said "I have most of my antiques in the attic. I should warn you though, they are quite fragile."

"Not to worry, I'm good at handling things" Dick said proudly " um, fragile means something doesn't break easily, right?"

"Mom!" Candace yelled as she rushed into the kitchen "there's a giant pizza and people in our yard and they're eating and come look now!"

"Candace, you're being very rude" Linda said "did you forget that we have company?"

"Mom, can't you just spare a few minutes to look in the backyard? I promise you'll be surprised."

"Okay Candace, if it will help you realize that nothing is going on" Linda said "excuse me for a moment Katherine."

As Candace led her mom to the window, outside, on the Fletcher-Flynn backyard, Phineas & Ferb were serving the population of the city

"Enjoy our giant pizza and soda" Phineas said to a random citizen "no need to crowd, there's enough for everyone." He turned to Ferb "this is nice, but I wish there was a better way to give this to the people."

Suddenly, a beam came out of nowhere and zapped the pizza, causing it to disappear. A similar beam did the same to the giant soda machine.

"Wow, that was convenient."

"Awwww!" said the people.

"Hey, you won't believe this, but a giant pizza and soda machine just appeared downtown!" said a randomly appearing guy.

"To downtown!" shouted another guy, with the city filing out of the backyard.

"Well mom, what do you have to say about that?" Candace asked, as her mom looked out the window at that moment.

"About Phineas & Ferb playing in the backyard?" Linda asked. "I have to say, not that surprised."

Candace peered out the window and saw that everything was gone.

"But…no…it was just…" she stammered "wait, I have photos, look at these!" she showed her mom the photos she took.

"These are very nice dear, but you shouldn't waste your film taking pictures of pizza" Linda replied.

"No mom, they're of a giant pizza, that Phineas & Ferb made" Candace explained "you can't tell it's giant because it was too big to photograph all at once, but it was really there, I swear it!"

"Oh you and your active imagination" Linda said, chuckling, before turning to her friend "you wouldn't believe the stories Candace comes up with sometimes. I swear, she's as bad as you were in high school, always talking about spies, and secret labs and such."

"Heh, yes, I was quite the little storyteller" Agent K chuckled nervously.

"Anyway, it's almost dinner, go get your brothers" Linda said.

Candace stormed outside, where the kids were still dealing with the loss of their giant objects.

"I wonder how our pizza and soda machine ended up downtown?" Phineas asked "oh well, as long as people get to enjoy them." Moments later, Candace approached him.

"You two think you're so clever" Candace said "I don't know how you made that pizza disappear, but I'm watching you, and I'll get you one day."

"Oh hey Candace" Phineas said, oblivious to her threats "our pizza disappeared somehow, but I still have a piece of crust in my pocket. You want it?" he asked, producing said crust.

"I don't want your crust" Candace said, storming off. Moments later, she returned, grabbed the piece of crust, and stuffed it in her mouth. "Mmm, that is good" she said in between her mouthful "oh, and mom says it's almost dinner time."

"Right on schedule" Phineas said, after Candace left "come on Todd, you guys are going to love mom's dinner" and he and Ferb headed to the house, leaving the three kids alone.

"Aww man, I didn't get any giant pizza!" Jacobo whined.

"So what? By tomorrow, we'll have whatever we want from those two" Todd replied "now let's go."

Jingle: Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!

Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz was working on a deal that, unknown to him, would have dangerous repercussions for the city and him as well.

"As you can see, my Transport-inator can send anything I blast it at, anywhere else in the city" Doofenshmirtz explained to a mystery man "I was going to use it to put a bag of flaming dog waste on my stupid brother's door, but when I lit the bag, I panicked and ruined a good pair of shoes. Anyway, that giant pizza and soda machine I blasted will appear in the center of town, therefore causing confusion on a grand scale! Pretty evil, huh?"

"Not up to my standards, but we can change that" the mystery man replied.

"So anyhoo, if we merge, I still get a 50% controlling interest in my company and get to decide what my inventions are used for?" Doofenshmirtz asked.

"Of course" said the mystery person "I'm interested in using your company's resources to help with my own 'projects', but I'm not going to micromanage."

"Let me keep all rights to the 'Inator' name, and you've got a deal" Doofenshmirtz replied.

"I think that can be arranged" the mystery man said "so if there's nothing else, just sign here" and he pushed a document in front of the Doof.

"Sorry, but I don't sign anything unless I read it first" Doofenshmirtz explained "you never know if your signing up for one of those CD clubs; they say they'll send you some free ones, then the next thing you know, they're jacking up the price."

The evil doc perused over the contract "Okay, the party of the first part, that's you I think, shall give the party of the second part, that's me, something, something, big words, yada yada… okay, looks to be in order" he added, signing the contract he had been given "as of now, Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated is part of Scorpius Industries. I'm really looking forward to all the evil I can do with this new partnership."

"Oh, I have some big plans for that, doctor" Dr. Scorpius replied "some very big plans" he added, before laughing evilly.

"What are you laughing at?"

"That's my post-merger laugh" Dr. Scorpius explained "I do it everytime I successfully merge with a company; it helps me to relax."

"Oooh let me" Doofenshmirtz said, also laughing "wow, that is relaxing."

These two evil geniuses working together can't be good for anyone. In the next chapter, Todd and his crew steal one of Phineas & Ferb's old inventions and get into trouble with another of Scorpius' allies, Isabella begins her training of Baljeet, and Riley & Candace discover they're more alike than they think.
