Play Phineas and Ferb Theme Song
The wind blows multiple calendar pages into the air, starting on June 3.
There's 104 days of Summer Vacation
Then School comes along just to end it
Phineas and Ferb sit under a tree in their backyard.
So the annual problem for our generation
Is finding a good way to spend it
Cue montage of the boys doing multiple activities.
Like maybe
First, the boys land on the moon. They jump out of the rocket and float forwards.
Second, Phineas climbs on top of Ferb. They try to fight a mummy.
Third, they climb up a certain French tower.
Building a rocket or fighting a mummy
Or climbing up the Eiffel Tower
Fourth, Ferb removed a tarp to show a weird unicorn-turtle hybrid. Phineas takes a picture of it.
Fifth, the boys force a monkey into the shower. Neither of them enjoy this one.
Discovering something that doesn't exist
Or giving a monkey a shower
Sixth, they surf on a large wave.
Seventh, they create tiny robots.
Eighth, they find Frankenstein's monster. The brain is missing from the head. It doesn't take them that long to find.
Ninth, they find a bird.
Tenth, they fly on a helicopter with a large paintbrush over the city. They covered the city in orange paint.
Eleventh, the boys work on a painting. The painting depicts a red-headed girl with a mustache.
Surfing tidal waves, creating nanobots, or locating Frankenstein's brain
Finding a dodo bird, painting a continent, or driving your sister insane
Turns out, this girl isn't actually a painting, but the boys' sister, Candace. She turns to Phineas angrily.
"Phineas!" she shouts.
The boys do multiple things, all the while their sister watches angrily.
Film a movie.
Build a giant robot dog.
Tamper with a car.
Ride a rollercoaster.
As you can see, there's a whole lot of stuff to do before School starts this fall
Candace talks to a friend on the phone. She doesn't notice the boys carrying a live elephant into the backyard until she hears Phineas call out, "Come on, Perry!" That gets her attention.
Later, she's seen playing "Whack-a-Pest". The pests that pop out are her brothers and their pet platypus.
So stick with us, 'cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all
Afterwards, the boys dance around and play guitar as images of the infinite possibilities flash by.
So stick with us, 'cause Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all
When the boys are done, they pose. Their sister comes in.
"Mom, Phineas and Ferb are making a title sequence!" she shouts.
The boys stare at her for a second. They then brush it off and resume their poses.
End Intro
104 Days of Summer Vacation
Day 4
Flop Starz
A little boy was performing on stage.
"I met my love in…" he sang very off-key.
A mechanical boxing glove sent him off stage before he could continue. A blonde man appeared on screen.
"Boy, did that kid suck or what?" he said in a very cruel tone. "But maybe you have what it takes to be the Next Super American Pop Teen Idol Star! Auditions open today at the Googoplex mall in beautiful downtown Danville."
The Flynn-Fletchers had breakfast while the commercial played. That's when Candace heard about the auditions.
"Auditions? Today?" she asked.
"Yes, today," said the host. "At two o'clock sharp."
Candace kissed the guy on the screen. "I gotta tell Stacy!"
She ran to her room, carrying the TV with her. Sadly, it was plugged into the wall, so the force from all the running made her fall.
"That pop star stuff might be fun at first, but then you'd be stuck in a dead-end job," Phineas remarked. "Too bad you can't just do it once and move on."
"You're talking about a one-hit wonder," said Linda.
"What's that?"
"Well, a musical act goes to the top of the charts with a catchy tune and meaningless lyrics, then they throw a big diva tantrum, lose their label, and they fade to obscurity. Before you know it, their song ends up as elevator music. Years later, they have a reunion concert, and after that, they never sing again, and no one remembers them." Linda shed a tear as she recalled her experiences. She quickly wiped the tear away and put on a smile before anyone could notice. "Not that I would know anything about that."
Linda walked out of the room.
Phineas took everything Linda said and put it on a small list.
"A one-hit wonder," he decided. "Ferb, I know what we're going to do today."
He didn't need to say that twice. Ferb grabbed a guitar, stood on the table, and played a riff.
Candace looked through the CDs and records in her room. She had Stacy come over to help her.
"Stacy, what am I going to sing?" Candace panicked.
"The real question is, what are you going to wear?" Stacy replied.
Candace realized Stacy was right.
After skimming through her closet, she found a blue dress. She also used a hair straightener to make her hair look more curly.
"What do you think?" she asked.
"Too much," Stacy replied.
Next, Candace tried on a red bikini with white flowers on it.
"Too little," Stacy criticized.
Then, Candace tried on a different blue dress with white shoulder pads. She used two blue bows to put her hair in a pigtail.
"Ugh, too clean."
Next, Candace straightened her hair again to make it look dirtier. She wore a torn-up gray T-shirt with a yellow circle on it, as well as dark green patched-up pants that were clearly too big for her. The clothes were so dirty they attracted a fly.
"Too dirty."
Then, Candace put on a blue cap, a white shirt, blue pants, and a gold medal.
"Too street."
Then, she put on a black wig, put on some black and red clothes, and applied some dark makeup to her face.
"Too goth."
The next one surprised Stacy.
"Where'd you get that?" she asked.
The outfit in question was heavily detailed. Candace wore an orange wig that was as short as Linda's hair, a silver bow, golden earrings, a purple shirt, a blue jacket underneath, a belt that read 'TOY' on it, a green skirt, leggings, and white boots.
"From my mom's closet," she replied. "You like it?"
"No, too retro."
Candace went through more clothes, all of them rejected. After a while, she was wearing a red T-shirt and a white skirt, her usual outfit.
"It's perfect," said Stacy.
"Yeah," Candace remarked. "I should've tried this one first. Let's go."
The two best friends headed to the mall. They passed by Phineas and Ferb's room.
Phineas just finished writing the meaningless lyrics.
"How's the catchy tune coming along?" he asked Ferb. Ferb played the recording he made. A single piano note. "Excellent. We'll be done by lunch. Hey, where'd Perry go?"
Once no one was around, Perry put on his fedora and entered the bathroom. He flushed himself down the toilet and swam through the pipes.
After a while, he reached the lair. Monogram was already on screen.
"Good morning, Agent P," Monogram greeted. "We just received word that Doctor Doofenshmirtz has been buying up construction toys at an alarming rate. We need you to find out what he's up to and put a stop to it."
Perry got on his motorcycle and left the lair.
Perry
He drove down the streets of Danville. After a while, he stopped at a red light. Safety first, as they say.
However, this put Perry in a bad situation. His owners stopped at the same red light. Linda turned towards Perry and looked at him.
Desperate to maintain his cover, Perry put on a very poor disguise. A pair of glasses with a fake nose and mustache.
Luckily for him, Linda was dumber than a bag of rocks, and fell for the disguise very easily.
When the light turned green, Perry sped away.
Linda dropped Candace and Stacy off at the mall.
"Meet me at the entrance in an hour," she ordered.
"Come on, Stacy," Candace led Stacy into the mall. "We've gotta hurry so we can get a spot in line."
Candace looked in front of her and realized there was a very long line. She turned around to see a large crowd behind her, waiting for the show to begin.
"I never sang in front of this many people before," she panicked. "I can't do this."
"Yes you can," Stacy assured. "You're not a quitter, you're a fighter. You're a lean, mean, singing machine." Stacy brought out her bag so Candace could punch it. When she was done, she looked like a crazy person. Her hair was messy, her mouth was drooling, and her skirt was torn a little.
"Hey, Candace," came a familiar voice.
Candace turned around to see Jeremy right there. She quickly changed her hair back and tried to cover up what happened.
"And that is what a gorilla looks like when you try to take away his food," she said nervously. She then turned to Jeremy as if she just noticed him. "Hey Jeremy. Are you auditioning too?"
"Nah, I came to see this hot new band called PFT. I downloaded their song this morning. It's tight. The hundredth contestant gets to sing on stage with the band."
"Really?" Candace asked as she got in line.
That's when she heard a bell ding and a siren blare. She turned to a nearby sign that read, '100th Contestant'.
"Congratulations!" came the voice of the TV host as he led Candace to the stage.
Before Candace knew it, she was on stage in front of a crowd of hundreds, if not thousands.
"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls," said the announcer. "This young lady has the honor of singing on stage with PFT. So now, the band you've been waiting for, Phineas and the Ferb-Tones."
Candace turned around to see none other than Phineas and Ferb in the spotlight.
"Candace, you're the hundredth contestant?" Phineas asked, genuinely surprised. "How serendipitous. This'll be a brother-sister thing. Now, I'm assuming you've heard our single. I mean, who hasn't, right? It's a big hit."
He gave Candace the lyrics.
"Here are the words," he said. "Don't worry if you get lost. The lyrics are meaningless anyway. I'll point when it's your turn."
Phineas then turned to Ferb and their backup dancers, Isabella and the Fireside Girls.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Ferbettes!" he announced. "I'm Phineas, this is Ferb, and we're gonna sing a song."
Play "Gitchee Gitchee Goo"
Phineas:
Bow, chicka, bow-wow
The Ferbettes:
That's what my baby says
Phineas:
Mow, mow, mow
The Ferbettes:
And my heart starts pumping
Phineas:
Chica, chicka, choo wah
All:
Never gonna stop
Gitchee gitchee goo means that I love you
Phineas:
I said a bow, chicka, bow-wow
The Ferbettes:
That's what my baby says
Phineas:
Mow, mow, mow
The Ferbettes:
And my heart starts pumping
Phineas:
Chica, chicka, choo wah
All:
Never gonna stop
Gitchee gitchee goo means that I love you
Phineas:
I said a bow, chicka, bow-wow
Phineas pointed at Candace, signifying her cue.
The music stopped. Candace wasn't buying this act.
"Wait a minute!" she shouted. "What are you doing?"
"I'm cueing you," Phineas replied, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"How did you get a hit single?"
"It wasn't easy. It took most of the morning and half a dozen phone calls. But if you're willing to put in the work…"
"That's it! I'm telling Mom!"
"Tell her what?"
"I'm just gonna tell."
Candace stormed off the stage.
Phineas was a little heartbroken knowing Candace didn't want to perform. He scolded himself in his head for having faith. In the end, he decided not to let that get in the way. He and the Ferbettes finished the song.
All:
Gitchee gitchee goo means that I love you
Pause "Gitchee Gitchee Goo"
Candace found Linda in a clothing store.
"Mom, you gotta come see this!" she shouted.
"Let me guess," Linda said sarcastically. "It's something…"
"Just look!" Candace carried Linda out of the store.
Backstage, Phineas shook hands with a spectator in the audience.
"I'm Ben Baxter, Huge-O-Records," he greeted as he handed Phineas his card. "Why don't you come by my office in an hour and we can talk about your future."
"Future?" said Phineas. "Cool, he must be psychic."
Candace led Linda to the stage. She saw the silhouettes of her brothers and felt relieved.
"See, they're right there on stage!" she shouted.
"Ladies and gentlemen," came the announcer. "Once again, Marty the Rabbit Boy and his Musical Blender!"
The light turned on to reveal it wasn't Phineas and Ferb, but a white rabbit with a similar triangle head, as well as a rectangular blender.
The rabbit turned on his blender. It made music when done right.
"Hon, we're getting you an eye exam," Linda said as she carried Candace away.
Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated
Everything was ready for Doof to enact his plan. That's when his doorbell rang. This frustrated him.
"What is it now?" he asked himself as he opened the door.
In front of him was a tiny man with a little mustache. He wore glasses and a fedora. He had surprisingly teal skin, a tail, and unnatural feet. Doof didn't think much of it and let the guy in.
"Are you my new temp?" he asked. "Let me get you up to speed. I know it's a bit of a mess. I'm just putting the finishing touches on my latest maniacal plan." Doof stood on a large platform as he showcased a map of the world. "You see, in a few minutes, I will unleash an unprecedented reign of terror upon the entire…" He used a magnifying glass to show the Tri-State Area in particular. "Tri-State Area, and Perry the Platypus will be none the wiser."
The man took off his glasses to reveal he was, in fact, Perry the Platypus.
"Perry the Platypus?" Doof said in shock. "You're a temp? Are times that hard?"
Candace returned from the eye doctor with a new pair of glasses. She quickly took them off.
What she saw next shocked her. There was a tour bus for PFT driving away.
"No, wait!" she then groaned in annoyance before noticing a large advertisement for Phineas and the Ferb-Tones on a nearby building. "Mom!"
"Sorry, Perry the Platypus," said Doof. "But you're too late."
Doof pulled a lever, causing the entire building to spring to life. It started stomping around and causing chaos.
Candace found Linda trying on a new jacket. She didn't think much of it and led her outside.
"Candace, wait, I haven't paid for this yet!" Linda said, just to fall under deaf ears.
Doof laughed as his monstrosity destroyed everything on site.
"When it comes to havoc, nobody wreaks it like me!" he bragged. That's when Perry found an opening and started messing with the wires. This didn't go unnoticed by Doof. "Wait, you're not supposed to touch that! No fair!"
Doof's building almost crushed the building with the PFT painting.
Meanwhile, Phineas and the Ferb-Tones were riding on their tour bus to Ben's office.
"That's an amazing painting," Isabella remarked. "How'd you get permission for it?"
"They didn't mind," Phineas replied. "The building's scheduled for demolition."
Right as he said that, there was an explosion and the building crumbled.
By the time Candace and Linda got out, the building was gone.
"See?" Candace asked.
When Linda didn't get a reaction, she turned around. The building was gone. She screamed at the top of her lungs.
That's when a security officer approached Linda.
"Excuse me, ma'am," he said. "You're gonna have to pay for that."
"Of course, officer," Linda replied as she left.
Candace continued to scream.
"Hey, weren't you Lindana?" the officer asked.
"Yeah, I was," Linda replied. "I didn't think you'd recognize me."
"Well, I was a huge fan. You still have to pay for the jacket."
"I know."
"Very clever, Perry the Platypus," Doof complimented. "I tried to ignore you, but you forced my hand." He pushed a button, resulting in a bunch of arms grabbing Perry. "Now, I shall relax with a nice, tasty deli platter." He was about to eat, when he stopped himself. "Oh, where are my manners?" He took his plate and offered it to Perry. He then started to add pepper. "Just say when."
Perry just glared at Doof, then he came up with an idea.
At Huge-O-Records, Ben spoke with Phineas and the Ferb-Tones.
"Boys, I must say, I love your act," he said. "And we want to be in the Phineas and Ferb business. By the way, aren't you a little young to be pop stars?"
This was usually the part where Phineas would say, 'Yes, yes we are'. That's not what he did this time. Instead, he replied with a blunt, "No."
"Well, okay then. We're here to offer you a very lucrative contract. If you'll just sign exclusively with us for your follow-up single."
"Follow-up single?" Phineas reacted overdramatically. "Who do you think we are? Two-bit hacks who'll keep writing songs just because you'll pay us obscene amounts of cash?" He took the contract and tore it up. "Phineas and the Ferb-Tones are strictly a one-hit wonder! Good day to you, sir!"
Phineas and Ferb got on the elevator. Ferb checked 'Diva Tantrum' off the list.
Right after, 'Gitchee Gitchee Goo' started playing on the elevator speaker. That's another item off the list.
Ben was at first upset that Phineas and Ferb refused his once in a lifetime offer. That's when he realized, "Who needs them? We still have a video tape of their performance. We can make records, live CDs, and we can even digitally recreate their images to create our own sitcom, 'The Phineas and Ferb Show'. We can squeeze twenty years of entertainment out of this one video tape, and no one can stop us!"
"A giant robot is coming right at us!" an executive panicked.
Ben turned around to see there was a giant robot coming right at them.
Inside the giant robot, Doof was continuing to add pepper.
"You must really like pepper," he remarked.
Little did he know this was part of the plan.
When there was enough pepper, Perry blew it onto Doof, stunning him.
"It'll take more than condiments to foil my brilliant plan!" Doof bragged.
Doof might not have been allergic to pepper, but the building was. It let out a loud sneeze, sending both Doof and Perry flying out of it. They flew right through the Huge-O-Records building, taking a particular video tape.
Perry used the reel to grab onto a nearby pole, saving himself. Unfortunately, he couldn't save Doof.
Fortunately, Doof landed on a mattress.
"Wow, what an unbelievable stroke of luck," he remarked. Then the mattress folded, trapping him. "Curse you, Perry the Platypus!"
Agent P
With the mission over, Perry returned to his normal form and met up with his owners.
"Oh, there you are, Perry," said Phineas. "Come on guys, we still have one thing left to do."
The gang got on the tour bus, and headed back to the mall.
"And now, the winner for Next Super American Pop Teen Idol Star is…" the announcer announced. "Marty the Rabbit Boy and his Musical Blender! Give him a hand."
The crowd gave a round of applause.
Nearby, Candace sat on a bench glumly.
"Hey Candace, what's wrong?" came a voice. Candace turned around to see it was Jeremy.
"I'm better than that guy," she said. "I should've taken blender lessons."
"Why did you run off earlier?"
"It's my brothers. They ruin everything."
"Don't you like to sing?"
"Yeah."
"Then don't let your brothers ruin your good time. If you have a chance to sing, then take it. I gotta go. See you later."
Right as Jeremy walked away, familiar music started to play. When Candace turned back to the stage, Phineas and Ferb were back.
"Hey, Candace," Phineas called. "You're still the hundredth contestant. Wanna help us out?"
This time, she didn't hesitate. She took Jeremy's advice and joined her brothers on stage.

End "Gitchee Gitchee Goo
That was amazing! Candace thought to herself. I've been thinking of my brothers all wrong. They're not a nuisance, they're my ticket to…
Before she could finish that thought, Phineas spoke up. "This was great, but this is gonna be our last performance. We're retiring. Good night, Danville!"
Phineas and the Ferb-Tones left the stage, leaving a bewildered Candace to wallow in self-pity.
Linda sat in the living room and watched TV. A commercial popped up for the hit 80s song, 'I'm Lindana and I Wanna Have Fun'. It was being remixed into multiple different languages.
Linda felt a bunch of nostalgia watching the commercial. A part of her wanted to go back to those good old days, but there was one hindrance.
Speaking of which, Phineas, Ferb, and Candace had just returned home from the mall. They saw Linda watching TV.
"Hey, Mom," Phineas greeted. "Whatcha watching?"
Linda quickly turned off the TV.
"Nothing," she lied.
A.N.
This was a fun write.
The moment I came up with the idea of this fanfiction, I knew I needed to tackle this episode at some point or another.
It gives us Candace's first bit of character development as she joins her brothers and has a great time.
This version also provides a bit of character development for Phineas as well. In the previous chapters, he's been very impatient around Isabella, but now there's no snarky comment or unenthusiastic "Hey, Isabella". Phineas doesn't consider Isabella a friend just yet, but he's gotten to the point of tolerating her presence.
And best of all, there's the hit song, Gitchee Gitchee Goo. I have no intention of doing the Cliptastic Countdowns, so I included the full version of the song here.
Gitchee Gitchee Goo isn't my favorite song, but I understand why it's so popular. It's an earworm, but the good kind.
Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks for reading. Please favorite, follow, and review.
