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 74

Sipping with the Enemy

Lawrence entered the backyard to see Phineas, Ferb, and Buford discussing something.

"Hello boys," he greeted. "What are you doing?"

"Hey Dad," said Phineas. "We're telling Buford about phone booths."

"And I'm not buying it," said Buford.

"Oh no, they're real," said Lawrence. "They were tiny rooms where you could talk on the phone in private."

"Yeah, and you have to put coins in them to use them," Phineas added.

"Speaking of coins, what's this here?" Lawrence reached behind Phineas' ear and pulled out a coin. "It's a quarter."

"How did you do that?" Buford asked, surprised.

Lawrence smirked. "A magician never reveals his secrets."

He then left the boys alone.

"Your dad has some neat tricks," Buford remarked.

"Nah, I just keep a bunch of coins stashed behind my ear because he likes it so much," Phineas said, pulling a few more coins out from behind his ear.

"Hey, I can do it too."

Buford reached behind his own ear and pulled out a plastic ear.

Then Baljeet appeared from behind Buford.

"Mind flip," he said, flailing his fingers around.

"What are you doing, Baljeet?" asked Phineas.

"I'm his hype man. Check him out!"

Buford smiled.

"That's great," said Phineas. "You can be a hype man for all of us, because I know what we're gonna do today. Hey, where's Ferb?"

Buford's mouth opened up to reveal he was actually a suit Ferb was wearing.

The real Buford was standing behind Phineas.

"Ta-da!" he said. "I switched my body for a dummy of myself that Ferb climbed into when you looked away."

"Mind flip!" Baljeet repeated.

Vanessa was in line for coffee when she noticed a familiar boy standing behind her.

"I know you," she said with a grin. "Didn't you fly off of my dad's roof?"

"You're gonna have to be specific," the boy said smugly. "I fly off of so many roofs."

"Really?"

"No, just the one. Of course I remember you. You're Vanessa Doofenshmirtz."

"And you're Monty Monogram."

"Yep."

"Should we even be seen in the same room? I mean, our dads being sworn enemies and all."

"What can I get for you two?" asked the guy at the front desk.

"Cappuccino with chocolate powder and a ginger scone, please," Monty and Vanessa said together.

They then smiled at each other, blushing.

The employee saw this and grinned. "And two straws, no doubt."

"Putting aside the fact that our fathers are sworn enemies," said Monty. "Wanna have those cappuccinos together?"

"Sure, sounds cool," Vanessa replied.

Perry was in his lair.

"Morning, Agent P," Monogram greeted. "I guess we're getting a bit of a late start. Our sources say that Doofenshmirtz is on his way to Steam Noir, the hippest coffee house in town. We need you to get there before he arrives, and stop him from doing anything, you know, nefarious. I've got a word-a-day calendar."

Perry put on his jetpack and flew away.

Vanessa and Monty were now sitting with each other.

"It's awesome that we ran into each other," Monty remarked. "Can you imagine the look on both our dad's faces if they saw us together?"

Vanessa chuckled. "I'm surprised your dad hasn't put some kind of spy camera on you."

"Yeah. Where's your dad's Date-Ruinator?"

"So this is a date?"

"Well, isn't it?"

"Maybe. Do you usually have coffee with the daughter of your dad's sworn enemy?"

"No, just girls whose roofs I've flown off of."

"Oh, so now I feel special."

"Yeah, I don't just fly off any roof, you know. I've got standards."

"Of course you do."

"It's gotta be a building shaped like a… um…"

"An Easter Island head?"

"Exactly. What's that all about?"

Perry entered the coffee shop, and he found what he least expected.

Vanessa and Monty were sitting together, and hitting it off.

Perry knew he couldn't strike now, so he sat on one of the waiting benches. He stole the hat and fake beard of the sleeping person next to him so no one would notice him.

"I'll be right back," said Vanessa. "This needs more milk."

She got up, found a milk carton, and started pouring milk into her coffee.

Then she finally noticed Perry was sitting there, trying and failing to blend in.

"Perry, is that you?" asked Vanessa.

Perry made a guilty expression.

"Listen," Vanessa sighed. "I'd really appreciate it if you didn't let my dad know I was with the son of his sworn enemy. This date is going great, and I don't want him to spoil it. Can you help me?"

Perry gave Vanessa a face that said, 'Alright.'

Doof arrived at Steam Noir. Vanessa had told him the coolest people in town hung out in this place.

He entered the shop, expecting Perry to ambush him. He didn't.

"Hey waiter," he asked the employee. "Mind if I tell you my evil plan? My nemesis didn't show up today and I still have to get it out. I figured, since I'm getting nowhere with the older Tri-State population, maybe I should go for the younger demographic. Behold, the Coolinator!" He felt a little awkward after saying that. "Well, you can't really 'behold' it. It's out in the car, but trust me, it's behold worthy. First, I will suck all the cool out of this place, it being the hippest coffee shop in town and all, then I will blast myself with this cool concentration, transforming into such an 'awesome dude' that you, disaffected youth, will have no choice but to follow me blindly and help me, you know, take over the Tri-State Area! Anyway, the Coolinator's so hip, it only runs on espresso, so let's fill her up."

The employee removed their earplugs. "What'd you say, do?"

Doof groaned. "I need ten gallons of espresso."

"We only serve it in this cup, man."

Doof took the very small cup. "Whoa, really?"

"It's espresso, man."

"Fine. Let's see, this is about a quarter a cup, two cups in a pint, so…" Doof quickly did the math in his head. "I'll have 999 more of those, please."

"There are 640 cups in ten gallons, man."

Doof added the quarter-cup of espresso to the Coolinator.

"This is gonna take a lot of trips," he sighed.

Phineas and Ferb used wires to lower themselves onto the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls," Phineas announced to the crowd. "Get ready for the Mind Flip. For centuries, Shamans conjured magic for their tribes, and countless magicians practiced hocus pocus for their audiences."

The two pulled a string, unraveling two giant roll-up dragons with their heads.

The crowd gasped.

Isabella used a water hose to melt the paper. The water filled up the stage, creating a small pool.

"How do we do it?" Phineas went on as a ship rose out of the water with him and Ferb on it. "I'll tell you if you can keep it a secret. It's, a, trick!"

The crowd went wild.

Monty and Vanessa continued their conversation.

"Carl's in college, right?" Monogram said. "He can program the most sophisticated satellite tracking computers in the world, but every time I try to call my dad, he cuts me off. Can't even call a landline."

"You think that's bad?" asked Vanessa. "Every time I use the microwave, Norm starts involuntarily rapping."

Play "Won't Keep us Apart"

I know that you and I, we come from different places

There's no telling why or who your heart embraces

The next time Doof came in, Perry blocked his site of Monty and Vanessa with a newspaper.

When Doof turned back around, Perry used a seat cushion to cover Vanessa. Sadly, he couldn't get Monty.

These feelings that we share, there's a reason they're inside us

They're both aware of the list of things that won't divide us

Doof came back and forth a lot faster than Perry anticipated. He used the most random items to cover Vanessa and Monty, from magazines to coffee machines to paintings.

The sun and the stars and the moon and the planets won't keep us apart

A herd of wild wildebeests, a gaggle of flaming geese won't keep us apart

Perry grabbed a trash can from the bathroom and tried using that to hide Vanessa.

Then the employee just grabbed the can and put it back.

Ugh, good lord, Perry groaned in his head.

Duct tape, bungee cords, fiberglass diving boards won't keep us apart

A device designed specifically to keep us apart won't keep us apart

End "Won't Keep us Apart"

By the time the song ended, Perry was out of things he could use.

"Hey, do you mind if I use your bathroom?" Doof asked. "I know I haven't had any coffee, but I have bought, so I'm sure that counts."

Perry realized the bathroom door was right next to where Vanessa and Monty were sitting.

All Perry could find was a couple of tortilla wraps with cream in them.

He took a moment to determine his approach, then he sprayed the cream around certain parts of the floor.

When Doof went to use the bathroom, he slipped, slid forward, hit the plant, turned left, and slid right into the bathroom.

"So I look up," Vanessa said. "And there he is, cheering me on, 'blindly' stepping on the other team's feet as he walks."

"At least he showed up," Monty remarked. "I mean, if I had a nickel for every time I got the 'your dad can't come because he's working' call… but I guess that's really your dad's fault."

"What exactly do you mean by that?"

Neither of them noticed Doof sliding out of the bathroom, screaming.

Isabella, Buford, Baljeet, and Django soared over the stage using trapeze swings and ropes.

The Fireside Girls danced as a fire formed behind them.

Ferb strapped himself onto a wheel and rose high into the air.

"Through the power of enchantment," said Phineas. "And a few nifty dance moves…"

Ferb's wheel spun fast, and it transformed into a bubble that projected Phineas' face for the crowd to see.

"Ferb and I have conjured the glitter demons, and are ready to pull off…" Phineas continued.

After so many hours, Doof finally filled the Coolinator to the brim.

He carried the inator into the coffee shop.

"Alright, heads up, hipsters!" he said to all the Gen Z members in the shop. "Get ready to lose your cool."

"What I meant is that my dad spends all his time dealing with your father's schemes," Monogram explained.

"I'll have you know that my dad is a misunderstood genius!" Vanessa argued.

"Genius? I have three words for you: self, destruct, buttons."

"Yet, in spite of all that, my dad's still free to do it all the next day. Whoa, really effective bunch of spies there, Major."

They were so caught up in their argument that they didn't notice Perry dragging them to the back alley.

"At least my dad's spy network isn't funded by monthly alimony checks," Monogram pointed out.

"You do know that what he calls a 'spy network' is actually just a petting zoo with hats?" Vanessa retorted.

"Say goodbye to your street cred, hipcats!" Doof shouted as he turned on the Coolinator.

The inator struck every Gen Z person in the shop. Their clothes, personalities, and even voices changed to sound more like how Gen X members acted back when they were teens and young adults.

Seeing what was happening, Perry put on his fedora and sprang into action.

"Now to set the inator in reverse and blast myself with all the cool!" Doof shouted.

Before he could do that, though, Perry flipped the inator over. The inator blew up, striking everyone once again. They all turned back to normal.

"You know, Perry the Platypus, that is so uncool of you," Doof remarked.

Perry smirked and removed his fedora, revealing he hid a propeller hat under it. He used the propeller to fly away.

"Okay, that's actually cool," Doof admitted.

"You know, our fathers are probably right," Monty decided. "We shouldn't even be talking to each other."

"This was a mistake," Vanessa agreed.

"Fine."

"Fine!"

After a moment, Monty's frown turned upside-down. "Wanna do this again?"

Vanessa handed Monty a card containing her number. "Call me."

Monty took the card, and the two went their separate ways.

For the show's grand finale, the kids all got on stage and danced to epic music, all the while a bunch of fireworks went off.

Once the music was over, the kids took their final bows, and the stage vanished into thin air.

The crowd applauded one final time.

While most of the audience left the backyard, one curious child stayed put.

"Um, excuse me," they said. "How did you do that?"

"A real magician never reveals their secrets," Ferb replied.

The child sulked. "That's kinda cliche."

Then Ferb's head opened to reveal it was actually Baljeet pretending to be Ferb.

"Mind flip!" he said one final time.

Thanks for reading.
