Since the election has passed, I have this to say. If you happen to support Trump, you do not deserve my respect. By putting Trump back in office, you've proven you're just homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, and sexist. You can all piss off.

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 34

That Sinking Feeling

Phineas and Ferb were on the front of a giant boat.

"Now this is a ship," Phineas remarked. "My, she's 'yar'. Is she ready to sail?"

"She's ship-shape in Bristol fashion," Ferb replied.

"What does that mean?"

"What does 'yar' mean?"

"Phineas, Ferb, I need your help!" came Baljeet's voice.

The boys looked down to see Baljeet coming in.

"Hey, Baljeet," Phineas greeted as he and Ferb came down. "What's up?"

"It… it is about Buford," Baljeet struggled to say.

"What about him?"

"It is just… I do not know how to put it." The fear on Baljeet's face worsened as he kept speaking. "I think… I think I like him."

Phineas was confused. "I don't see what's wrong with that. I think we've all grown to like him."

"You misunderstand me. I think I… like him, like him. Let me explain. Ever since Buford gave me that noogie last night after the concert, I could not stop thinking about him. I've been bullied by a lot of kids, but Buford feels… special. It is like I am able to look past that side of him and just… like him for it. I do not know how to describe it, but… I think I like him more than just a friend. The moment I realized that, I came over here as quickly as possible. I do not know how to act in a situation like this."

An idea came to Phineas' head. "I think what you're talking about is romance."

"Romance?"

"Yeah. Ferb and I learned all about it in this movie we watched earlier this morning. Dinner, music, candlelight, and all on a romantic cruise over the ocean blue. Lucky for you, we have a ship right here. Ferb, cancel the giant bottle. I know what we're gonna do today. Hey, where's Perry?"

Monogram and Carl were playing a guitar game when they heard the camera beeping.

"Oh, he's here," Monogram said as he got in front of the camera. Perry was in his spot as usual. "Sorry for the delay, Agent P. Doofenshmirtz is at it again. He's been frequenting hobby shops and, well, Carl's worried sick, aren't you?"

"Not really sick, but…" Carl was about to say.

"What did I say about contradicting me in front of the agents?"

"Sorry, sir."

"So, that's pretty much it, Agent P. You can go now."

Perry left to do his mission.

"Okay, Carl," Monogram said as they went back to the game.

Baljeet made it to Buford's house. He wore a red bow tie over his usual outfit, and he held a small bouquet of flowers.

He took a couple of breaths. He knocked on the front door.

A woman answered the door. She was an average woman with brown hair in a bun. She wore a yellow sundress with green leaves and red flowers on it. Baljeet could only assume she was Buford's mom.

"Oh, are you Baljeet?" she asked. "Buford's told me about you."

"Hello, ma'am," Baljeet greeted. "Is Buford home? There is something I want to say to him."

"Yes, yes he is. I'll tell him you're here."

Buford's mom walked back inside.

Not long after, Buford showed up. He didn't seem too happy.

"What do you want?" he asked before realizing it was Baljeet. "Oh, it's you."

Baljeet cleared his throat. "If you do not already have plans for this upcoming afternoon…"

"I don't." Buford was about to shut the door.

"Wait!"

Buford paused. He looked a little intrigued, but his frown remained.

"Phineas and Ferb have planned…" Baljeet paused as he showed Buford a pamphlet. "An all-inclusive luxury cruise around Danville Harbor. Highlights of the evening will include a romantic candlelit dinner…" Baljeet looked up to see Buford was gone. "Oh, he's gone."

"I just wish Jeremy was more romantic," Candace whined over the phone. "You know, like Romeo and Juliet, but without all the dying."

Candace was interrupted by the sound of a ship horn blowing.

"Ahoy, Candace!" came Phineas' voice.

"Yeah, Stacy, I'm gonna have to call you back," Candace said.

Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated

Perry tried to sneak into the apartment. However, the moment his back touched the door, it flipped over. Before Perry could get up, a rope appeared and tied him to the floor.

"Ah, Perry the Platypus," said Doof. "You like my scale model? I even put my own little building here."

Doof gestured to his scale model of the Tri-State Area. His building was in the center of it all.

"Yes, my home," he said. "I can still remember the day I bought it. My real estate agent had already shown me hundreds of other places within my budget, but none of them were acceptable. That is, until he showed me this magnificent building with a view all the way to the ocean, but the first night, I realized why the price was so cheap. All night long, foghorns from passing ships would sound. I couldn't understand why all the ships were there until one night, I turned my neck to the right about forty-five degrees and I saw it. The Danville Lighthouse. It was attracting ships like moths to a flame."

Doof took a model of the lighthouse and moved it to the other side of the model of the city.

"What I'm going to do is I'm gonna move the lighthouse all the way to the other side of town," he explained. "The boats will follow it like moths following a… I already used that metaphor. I know, like bees to a flower."

Phineas and Ferb got their ship on the harbor.

Phineas looked down and saw Isabella and the Fireside Girls were nearby.

"Hey Isabella," Phineas greeted. "Whatcha doin?"

"The Fireside Girls and I just got our shrimp net repair patches," Isabella explained. "What are you doing?"

"Romantic cruise. You wanna come?"

Isabella gasped. "You want me to come on a romantic cruise with you?"

"Yeah, it'll be fun."

"Uh, okay."

Isabella and her troop squealed in excitement.

"Forget about it," came Baljeet's voice.

Everyone turned to see Baljeet approaching them glumly.

"He's not coming," Baljeet said. "You can all forget about it."

"Not so fast!" another shouted.

Buford snuck up behind Baljeet and pushed him to the side.

"I thought about it and decided I'll bite," he said before turning to Baljeet. "But if it isn't worth it…"

Buford cracked his knuckles.

Baljeet blushed a bit. "Noted."

Play "Boat of Romance"

Once the boat left the dock, Baljeet got in front of a camera. They were gonna take a picture of him as one of the lovebirds on the cruise.

Unfortunately for him, Buford shoved Baljeet aside and got in the frame as the picture was taken.

Romance

It's not in the air

Phineas monitored as couples of all shapes and sizes got on the boat.

It's not on the breeze, and it's not in the trees

And it's not in your hair

Candace tried to get a better view of the ship by climbing a tree. She just fell off the branch and into the water.

It's in the water, so I'll warn you well in advance

Isabella, the cruise director, made sure everything was sailing smoothly.

Nearby, Django was handing out beverages to guests.

Phineas was in the cabin steering the boat while Ferb was navigating.

If you're not looking for love, don't set foot on our boat of romance

Buford and Baljeet stood at the front of the boat. Buford had his arms stretched out as if he was flying, while Baljeet made sure Buford didn't lose his balance.

On our boat of romance

End "Boat of Romance"

"I knew it," Candace said. "Time to call Mom."

Candace tried to call Linda, but the moment she tried to speak, a nearby seagull squawked.

"Candace, I can't understand what you're saying!" Linda yelled.

Many seagulls swarmed Candace. Knowing this was a bad time, she hung up.

"They'll be back," she assured herself. "And when they do, I'll be standing right here ready to bust them."

A few seagulls flew onto Candace's head and shoulders.

"Will you get off me?" she demanded as she tried to shake them off.

"Wow, Phineas," Isabella remarked. "This is so romantic."

"You think this is romantic?" asked Phineas. "Wait till you see what else I have planned."

Phineas offered his hand. Isabella took it with no hesitation.

Yes, she thought to herself.

For a moment, Phineas just stood there. Isabella's hand felt… comforting.

Phineas quickly snapped out of it, though.

He led Isabella into the next room.

"Behold," he showcased. "A romantic candlelit dinner for two."

"Oh, Phineas," Isabella said happily.

"Ferb, show the happy couple to their table," Phineas ordered.

Isabella was about to sit down when she noticed Buford and Baljeet were the ones being led by Ferb.

"Cue music," Phineas ordered again.

A small band appeared and played some music.

"Classical music," Phineas told Isabella. "Very romantic."

Though, Buford and Baljeet didn't see it that way. They just sat there in awkward silence.

Phineas paid no mind. "Cue rose petals."

Ferb dumped a large bucket of rose petals over Buford, Baljeet, and the band.

"Cue… pid," Phineas finished.

Django was brought down on a rope. He wore nothing except for his underwear and fake wings strapped to his back. He had a bow and love arrow in his hands.

"I did not agree to this," he said.

"So, do I know romance or what?" asked Phineas.

"What," Isabella replied.

"I said…"

"I heard you."

Buford and Baljeet did their best to ignore Django in his underwear and just eat the food provided.

"So, do you like the food?" Baljeet asked.

"Uh, I guess so," Buford replied.

Baljeet wanted to say something else, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything.

That's when the rope holding Django in the air broke. He fell onto the table, breaking it.

"I've attached rockets to the lighthouse," Doof explained. "When I push this button, it'll fly to the other side of town. The ships will follow, then I will finally get some sleep."

Doof pushed the button. He watched as the lighthouse flew away, the ships following it. The lighthouse then flew in the other direction. The ships still followed.

"Should've put a steering mechanism on that," he said to himself. "Oh well, live and learn."

Doof then noticed Perry was free.

"Hey, how did you free yourself?" he asked.

Perry gestured for Doof to lean closer. Doof did so. Perry punched him in the nose.

"I guess I walked into that one," Doof remarked.

Doof fell onto his scale model. It shattered on impact.

"Hey, I worked all morning on that!" he whined.

Flashback

Earlier that morning, Doof was working on his scale model.

"I hope Perry the Platypus will appreciate my hard work," he said to himself.

"He won't," Vanessa said bluntly.

Doof sighed. "I know."

End of Flashback

"Perry the Platypus, I think it's time for you to go," Doof said. "That's right, go home. Your services are no longer required. The lighthouse is gone, and there's nothing you can do about it. You might as well run back to Major Monogram and tell him you lost this one."

Perry walked to the door. He looked back one last time to make sure. Doof continued to glare at him. Seeing no other choice, Perry accepted defeat and left.

Perry

Buford and Baljeet were at the edge of the deck, holding onto the rail.

"Did I mention how nice the weather is?" Baljeet asked.

"Several times," Buford replied, annoyed.

"Well, it is."

"I don't get it," Phineas said to Isabella. "We tried everything in that romantic movie, but nothing seems to work. The orchestra, the petals, the love song, the only other thing that happened in that movie was the ship sinking."

Right as he said that, a lighthouse flew through the bottom of the ship, creating a massive hole. A bunch of ships just sailed through it like nothing.

"Huh, that oughta do it," said Phineas.

Everyone ran to the edge of the ship to avoid drowning.

"I must apologize," Baljeet apologized. "The ship sinking was not in the brochure!"

"Oh, don't apologize!" Buford assured with a wicked grin. "Now things have gotten interesting!"

"Phineas, where are the life preservers?" asked Isabella.

"There aren't any," Phineas replied. "There are fun preservers. Hit it, Ferb."

Ferb pushed a button on a remote. The end of the boat rose high into the air. A large water slide inflated, leading into the ocean below.

"Okay everybody!" Phineas ordered. "To the fun preservers!"

Play "Gotta Make Summer Last"

One or two at a time, everyone on board got on a preserver and slid down the slide.

Summer, I love summer

We really love summertime

Phineas and Isabella got on a preserver and slid down together.

Buford and Baljeet got on another one.

Ferb and Django got on a third one.

They all screamed and cheered in excitement as they went faster and faster down the slope.

Summer, every 86,400 seconds, that's fast

Gotta make summer last

End "Gotta Make Summer Last"

Once the slide ended, Buford and Baljeet just slowly floated to the shore.

"Well, that was… something," Baljeet remarked, blushing. "Wanna never do that again?"

"Yeah, never," Buford replied. "I mean, a nerd and a bully? Who asked for this?"

"Yeah. Go ahead, do your worst."

Beforehand, Buford would've wanted to let Baljeet have it for even suggesting going on this cruise in the first place, but there was another part of him that actually thought it was nice.

In the end, he did push Baljeet off the floaty and into the water. Baljeet just laughed it off.

Once they made it to shore, Phineas and Isabella got off their floaty.

"This romance stuff was fun," Phineas admitted. "We should do it more often."

"Yes, yes we should," Isabella agreed. "And we should do it right next time."

Phineas blushed a little. "You're never gonna live that catastrophe down, aren't you?"

"No, no I'm not."

Phineas noticed Perry next to him on another floaty.

"Hey, there you are, Perry," he smiled.

That's when Candace approached them.

"Alright, you guys better tell me what you were up to on that cruise ship!" she demanded.

"Just whipping up a little romance for Buford and Baljeet," Phineas replied.

"Wait, you created romance?"

"Yeah."

"And did it work?"

"Seems like it."

The group saw Buford and Baljeet watching the sun set. It seemed like Buford was gonna side-hug Baljeet…

But he just wedgied him. Baljeet paid no mind, though.

"Do you think you could do that for me and Jeremy?" Candace requested.

"I don't see why not," Phineas replied.

Later, Candace and Jeremy were sitting at a table in the backyard. A band was playing, rose petals were falling out of the sky, and Django was hanging above the two on a rope.

"Candace, I love seeing a kid's feet in my face as much as the next guy," Jeremy said. "But how about we just get a slushy burger next time?"

A.N.

Sorry this took a day longer than it should have, but I needed some time to let out my frustration knowing Trump won the election again. I guess they just don't want women as president. Well, all we can do now is hope Trump dies by January or Harris runs again next time and succeeds.

I have heard online that Trump plans to take away rights for gay and trans people. As a bisexual, I'm absolutely disgusted by him, and the fact he has as many supporters as he does. It really shows that we have not come as far as we thought if there are still people out there that think people that aren't straight aren't human.

Well, he can do whatever he wants, but that's not gonna stop me. I'm gonna keep including queer ships and representation in my stories, even if no one reads them. If Trump doesn't like it, he can go suck an egg. Queer people are still people, and it sucks that some people are just too blind to realize that.

Anyway, let's actually talk about said queer ship in this story. I decided to have Buford replace Mishti in this chapter. I figured it'd help develop the relationship between the two.

When I first watched this episode, I didn't mind Mishti. I thought she was alright. Now, I think she was just an unnecessary addition, especially since this is the only time we see her, only ever being mentioned again in a time-jump episode.

Anyway, we also got some scenes between Phineas and Isabella. Those were fun to write.

Also, I got rid of the credit scene where the lighthouse landed in Doof's apartment and all the ships somehow reached the land and parked at the apartment. It was hilarious, don't get me wrong, but I feel Doof deserves a victory now and again. He may be evil, or at least, pretending to be evil, but sometimes his intentions are understandable.

That's all I have to say. Thanks for reading.
