    The Great Indoors 

    Canderemy 
  • Jeremy asleep on the couch. Seeing Candace's normally calm and unflappable boyfriend like that is hilarious.
  • This from when Doofenshmirtz's Combine-inator ends up fusing Phineas and Ferb together, just when Phineas and Isabella are about to go see a movie together:
    Isabella: Oh, my, gosh.
    Phineas: Hey! Does this mean we can all go now?
    Ferb: Yes. Yes it does.
  • The triple-scoop roach cone. "So cold..."
  • This exchange, after Perry is hit with the Combine-inator and fused with a toolbox:
    Doofenshmirtz (who's fused with Norm): I think we're in trouble.
    Norm: Sure, now it's "we".
  • This exchange:
    (Doof and Norm get fused with a refrigerator.)
    Norm: (opening the fridge door) Would you like a frosty beverage?
    Doofenshmirtz: (slams the fridge door shut) Hey, that's private!
  • The reveal that Stacy knew all along Candace had literally been stuck to Jeremy. There's just something in her tone that makes it hilarious.
    Stacy: By the way, the best part was when you used him as a table. Busted!

    Run, Candace, Run 
  • When Candace is wearing Phineas and Ferb's running shoes, a couple◊ who are interested in Doofenshmirtz's building after him having to give it up because he can't afford the payments, are out on the patio, and are about to accept when all of a sudden Candace comes out of nowhere as a blur running from one side of the building to the other and crossing to the other, accidentally taking the wife with her. The guy is so weirded out by whatever just happened that he decides they're going to check out some other neighborhoods.

    Last Train to Bustville 

    Phineas' Birthday Clip-O-Rama! 

    The Belly of the Beast 

    Moon Farm 
  • Baljeet gets into an argument with the singer of "Lunar Taste Sensation" over whether or not it's his fault that they didn't have any marshmallows for rocky road ice cream.
    • The fact that Baljeet unknowingly gets the singer's name right.
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: We left the marshmallows at home. I blame Baljeet.
      Baljeet: Hey, what do you mean you blame Baljeet?!
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: Well, i-it was clearly your responsibility.
      Baljeet: Where are you getting your information from, Disembodied Reggae Space Voice?!
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: Hey, I have a name, you know!
      Baljeet: Oh, yeah?! What is it?!
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: Well... i-it's Disembodied Reggae Space Voice, but that's just a coincidence! You didn't know that!
      Baljeet: (condescendingly) Ooh, look who's sensitive!
    • "Baljeet, could you please stop arguing with the soundtrack?"
    • On top of all of that, when the song repeats for the credits, we're treated to this exchange:
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: We left the marshmallows at home. I blame Baljeet.
      Baljeet: Hey, I thought we discussed this earlier!
      Disembodied Reggae Space Voice: It's in the lyrics, man!
  • Buford trying to get a cow to say "Moon".
  • When Doof tries to get help with growing his plants, he tells us how the store owner yelled at him because he doesn't have a green thumb, he should stop asking him questions, and "My mere presence in the store was killing his plants".
  • Doof's face when he realizes that "green thumb" is a metaphor.
    • Also when he realizes that his neighbor's garden is really a plastic display.
      • Followed shorty by a jetpack-induced wedgie when he insists that he doesn't need help looking like a fool.
  • Candace and Stacy's increasingly screwed-up attempts at making lamb cobbler. And when Stacy tries applying some Oven Logic... it actually works, producing a perfect lamb cobbler.
    • And then Stacy lampshades this, pointing out they didn't even add any lamb into it.

    Ask a Foolish Question 
  • The song:
    Our song is synchronic, not the least bit ironic. What you hear is exactly what you see
  • Candace's reaction to Mom's frizzed out (and blonde) hairdo after she comes home is just priceless.
  • The reactions to the supercomputer's town-wide scan.
    Norm: "Get out of my head!"
    • The CAT Scan Technician:
      Tech: (takes out her phone, completely deadpan) "Hospital worker's union?"
    • The teens partying in the junkyard:
      Partygoer: Between that and the random laser drills, this is like the second best mid-day scrapyard rave ever!
  • Why does everything explode so easily?
  • "I could tell he was laughing. Y'know, that way gophers laugh."
  • Doof's confusion as his Metal-un-Earth-inator finds dozens of helmets buried all around the try state area.
    Doof: What happened here?

    Misperceived Monotreme 
  • Twice in the episode, one of the delivery guys' body odor is commented on.
  • Carl, working out Agent P's chair, remarks on how everything in the lair is "Agent P-sized".
    Carl: It's kinda cute. Just like kindergarten.
  • The scene when Irving gets hit by Doofenshmirtz's Least-Likely-inator. He flirts with Isabella.
  • The Disney Acid Sequence that is the fun house. And when Candace is hit by the Least-Likely-inator and starts cleaning it up, she is accompanied by the music sped up and in reverse.
  • Doof, Monogram, and Carl share a singular braincell as Doof loses a fight with the mindless platypus who was mistaken for Perry while the other two cheer the mindless animal on.
  • This exchange:
    Monogram: Oh... the Marsh Maneuver! I haven't seen one of those since 1974!
    Carl: '74? You had a perm back then!
    Monogram: STAY OFF THE INTERNET, CARL!!!
  • Doof: Oh, I see what you're doing. You're messing with my head. Trying to get into my mind. Walk around in there, rearrange the furniture, maybe repaint the kitchen!

    Candace Disconnected 
  • Dance Baby will completely crack you up, especially if you don't see it coming at all the first time it happens (and you likely won't).
    • Even if you don't bust up laughing, there, you will once you see/hear the actual lyrics. Case in point: "Never eat a cactus if you're out of practice".
  • Doofenshmirtz getting interrupted at the end of the episode:
    Doofenshmirtz: CURSE YOU, PERRY THE— (phone rings and he answers it) Hello? Oh, hi, Vanessa. Yes that was my -inator. Listen honey, I'm in the middle of something, hold on one second. (yells) —PLATYPUS! (to Vanessa) So, how was class?
  • Norm's sarcastic prototype head has some pretty amusing lines.
  • Monogram trying to figure out text messaging.
  • Vanessa's reaction to being carried away by the "Pick-Em-Up-Inator"...
    "Curse you, unknown rocket-helmet-transportation thing! Oh, sweet, I'm home. Nevermind, unknown rocket-helmet-transportation thing!"
  • While testing the transportation function, Phineas has Isabella stand outside the garage and teleports to her location. She positions herself so that they're literally nose-to-nose when he arrives. He doesn't react at all.
    • "Dang it!"
  • "Doofenshmirtz's BASEMENT."
  • The phone's Rimshot app.
  • Candace didn't realize she still had the teleporting phone on her when she told Phineas that she would have to bust him "for making her go to Timbuktu".
    Phone: Timbuktu Located!
    Candace: Meap! (Dissapears)
    Phineas: She's gonna miss pie.
    (Candace reappears on top of a Mosque in Timbuktu)
    Candace: PHINEAS AND FEEEEERRRRRB!

    Magic Carpet Ride 
  • Perry's complete deadpan in response to seeing Lawrence and the boys fly past, riding on the living room floor was fantastic. You'll believe a platypus can be the Only Sane Man.
  • Stacy's reactions to Candace's belief in fortune cookies are all gold:
    Candace: "What do you say now, Doubty McNonbelief?"
    Stacy: "Why am I suddenly Irish?"
  • "Aerial Area Rug" parodies all the Award-Bait Song conventions, as the singer can't seem to decide whether this new perspective is better or worse than the view from the ground.

    Bad Hair Day 
  • Shot in the Butt with a Dart will elicit a few giggles, if for no other reason than the abrupt ending— but if you watch the video of it, you can see exactly how accurate Doof was with the "17 seconds" crack.
  • Carl's traumatized reaction to spending time in Doof's basement.
    Carl: I saw a rat give birth...to a SNAIL!
  • Monogram messing with Carl's head by touching Carl's ear, leading him to a believe that there was a brown recluse on him was worth a chuckle.
  • The out-of-nowhere shout out to Full Metal Jacket of all things.

    Meatloaf Surprise 
  • The weird bird. It was amusing anyway, but Perry's reaction sealed the deal.
  • There's quite a bit about the Meatloaf song. It becomes absurdly hilarious to ponder what lyrics are being used in such a music style and the surrealist pictures help.
  • Phineas's inspirational speech, with newspaper (one of which sticks onto Phineas's body for a moment), a bird, and a sink blowing past in the background. And him ending the speech with, "Where's Perry?"
    • Not to mention we see that the windy effect is being generated artificially by Ferb with an electric fan.
  • There's a callback to the episode Bubble Boys where, once the giant floating bouncehouses take flight, Baljeet tells Buford that they are going to float around "like little woodland pixies." Apparently Baljeet reminds him of this regularly as Buford states that he's "never going to let [him] live that down."
  • When Candace lands in a contestant's meatloaf just as soon as the contestant suggest it is missing something, Candace bluntly suggests paprika.
    Contestant: How much?

    Phineas and Ferb Interrupted 
  • The Blueprints song, all of it, really, from Candace and Buford being so oddly cheerful, to the ending with Doof as Uncle Sam and Perry as Lady Liberty...
    • Perry's scowl during his and Doof's portion of the song (which is only made funnier by the latter's goofy expression during the same number).
  • The surveillance footage from the beginning is a great Continuity Nod, after the "We've got hours of that" gag from back in "Misperceived Monotreme" - the whole, 'we've got surveillance cameras planted in every square inch of Doof's building' thing (including the bathroom) - but it gets even better when you realize that this time Heinz is singing "He's a semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of ACTION!"
  • The fact that Dull-and-Boring!Phineas is utterly fascinated by completely random stuff.
    "Hey Ferb, did you ever notice that the sidewalk is filled with little sparkly bits?"
  • The ending, with Dynamic Linda.
    What do you do when hunger attacks?
    Fill your stomach up to the max
    Not talking Tough Gum
    Don't ever shirk from
    How would you like some snacks?
  • Baljeet's idea for getting Candace down:
    Baljeet: "Don't worry. Pretty soon the fuel will run out."
    (everyone stares at him)
    Baljeet: "Oh, and then she will fall to...yeah."
  • How about the fact that Perry had gone to Doof's lab three times in one episode? The first time was before the episode started and destroyed the Dull-And-Boring Ray; second time was rebuilding it to a Dynamic Ray after Phineas and Ferb were hit; and the third time was when he realized Linda was hit with the Dynamic Ray and had to rebuild the Dull-And-Boring Ray again!

    A Real Boy 
  • The song that plays as Norm is starting his day. It's so wacky and off-kilter, yet cheerful as can be... much like the show itself. Norm's perpetual grin and love of making "crunchy eggs" makes the whole thing even more hysterical.
  • Candace and Stacy's exchange about her hypnotism plan.
    Stacy: Why do you want to do this, Candace?
    Candace: I have to meet Jeremy in the park today, but I can't go unless I get this busting out of my head!
    Stacy: But hypnotism? It's just so 1843 of you.
    Candace: 1843?
    Stacy: You know, 1843 when James Brade published the "Rationale of Somnambulism" in which he invented the term "hypnotism", named after the Greek god, Hypnos.
    Candace (in a stunned tone) How do you even know that?
    Stacy: It's written on your poster. Apparently, he also invented the comb-over. Freaky.
    Candace: (still stunned) Why would I have bought that poster?
  • Candace managing to show her mom Phineas and Ferb's big project... only for Linda to get repeatedly shot by Doof's "Forget-About-It-Inator".
  • Doof and Perry awkwardly trying and failing to not look at the audience after Doofenshmirtz exclaims " but this isn't a sitcom, Perry the Platypus, this is real life!"

    Mommy Can You Hear Me? 
  • A blink-and you miss-it gag in the end creditsnote  you'll notice that it says "Featuring the Russian vocal stylings of Swampysky Marshkarov."note 

    Road Trip 
  • Candace sleep-busting.
  • The boys building a truck stop on the roof of their RV.
  • The episode's variation on the "Aren't you a little young...?" gag has Phineas pointing out that age really isn't the issue, presumably referring to the fact that the man is delivering this stuff onto the roof of a moving RV.
  • Doof attempting to use a radio system.
  • Lawrence pushes everything into hilarity. Repeatedly.
    Lawrence: (while listening to the tape "Trucker Songs: 1975-1975") Oh, play track three, it's the one where a group of truckers take down a corrupt police force using only their trucks and their saucy colloquialisms!
    • Lawrence's best moment has to be when Candace drags Linda to the roof of the RV to see the boys' diner, which is, of course, gone. Lawrence pops his head out the sunroof and asks, "What are we looking at?" However, he was supposed to be driving the RV at the time. Candace and Linda's Aside Glance is what sells it.
  • When Candace discovers the truck stop, she starts her usual rant on busting them...while acting as a waitress. And then going through an entire musical montage being the waitress before slow realization hits her.
    • Somehow the very slowness of that realization just gets funnier and funnier every second it draws out...
    • Her whole surly waitress act is great, but especially this exchange:
    Candace: "There's bacon."
    Trucker: "Is the bacon good?"
    Candace: "It's bacon."

    Tour de Ferb 
  • Baljeet refuses to participate in a bike race. Why? All of his ancestors fell prey to a tiger attack during the event.
    • His great-grandfather fell into a tiger pit.
    • His grandfather deftly avoided the tiger pit. The tiger wasn't in the pit.
    • His father covered himself in a tiger proof cage. Well, tiger-proof when the tiger isn't following behind with a bicycle and a blowtorch.
    • Baljeet himself participates in a bike race in Danville, where Phineas and Ferb have, for some reason, installed a tiger-repellent on City Hall. It was low on battery, and a tiger mauled Greg LeMond.
  • This:
    Phineas: Come on, Baljeet! Don't let a little thing like all your male ancestors getting mauled by tigers during a bicycle race get you down.
    • Before that, Phineas is explaining how the bikes are modified to get them through rough terrain:
    Baljeet: "What about tiger attacks?"
    Phineas: "Technically, that's not a terrain."
  • Basically all of Baljeet's exchanges with Greg LeMond:
    LeMond: "Hi, Baljeet. I'm Greg LeMond, the first American cyclist to win the Tour de France. Three times, actually."
    Baljeet: "So, like, recently?"
    LeMond: "That's not the point."
    • Greg LeMond proceeds to repeatedly show up throughout the race acting like at each setback Baljeet wants to quit, despite the fact that Baljeet spends the rest of the race extremely fired up to win. Greg doesn't notice.
      LeMond: I know there's a little voice telling you to quit, but you can't listen to it!
      Baljeet: I hear no voice.
    • Greg LeMond trying to steal the race from Baljeet at the end because he inspired himself to win.

    Skiddley Whiffers 
  • The absurdly direct Skiddley Whiffers commercial:
    Narrator: (singing) "It's every bit as great as we have advertised! If you don't own a copy you'll be ostracized in schoooool! Skiddley Whiffers is coooool!"
  • All of the ridiculous (moreso than usual) scenarios Perry was shoved into (being forced into a shirt with Carl in a heart on it and a bear suit, among others).
    • And Doofenshmirtz's reaction to Perry showing up in the Carl shirt:
    Doof: (casually) "Oh hey, man; nice threads."
  • The following exchange:
    Vanessa: (upon seeing Perry dressed as a bear, trying to scare the campers) Really, Perry? Really? I expected better of you.
    Perry: *hangs head in shame*
  • This:
    Candace: Mom, mom, mom! Look what Phineas and Ferb built!
    Linda: You're right, Candace, call the authorities. It's a cube.
  • "You know, fire is the leading cause of fire!"
  • Phineas and Ferb's revelation of the pieces:
    Phineas: "I suppose you're wondering why we asked you out here today."
    Buford: "Yes. Yes we are."
    Phineas: "Behold!"
    (unveils the giant game pieces)
    Buford: "...That doesn't clear anything up for me."
    Isabella: "I don't care what it is, the hair-dryer is mine."
  • Baljeet rolling a one:
    Baljeet: "It's going to be a long day."
    • Before that, when he draws the unicorn piece:
    Baljeet: "You know real unicorns are pink! I am just saying..."

    My Fair Goalie 
  • The numerous dramatic zooms. DUN DUN DUN!
  • Buford "correcting" Ferb's British cousins on identifying a football.
    • Made even more hilarious when he shows up to the match wearing a helmet and shoulder pads, then tackles Ferb's cousins throughout it.
  • "I once saw Ferb play an entire game of soccer using a pumpkin, and he didn't even break it! To this day, his motivation for doing so remains shrouded in mystery."
  • "'Anglophile'? I thought your family was from Wisconsin!"
  • "Philosophers... get a job, thinky-boy!"
  • "British curses are very specific!"
  • Eliza's song on proper manners suddenly transforming into a heavy metal number with Eliza playing an electric guitar.
  • Candace's thought on practicing posture by balancing books on your head: "I don't get it. Do polite people not have bookshelves in your country?"
  • How about Jeremy finally catching on and messing with Candace's head? He gets some grade-A snarking in before she decides 'To heck with it' and abandons her latest ploy to impress him. It's actually rather heartwarming in its own right.
  • This episode shows just how special the Doof - OWCA relationship is. Doof has to call OWCA sick in case he has a flu.
    • He might not have to call in. He takes the nemesis relationship very seriously, and probably calls in sick to be polite. So Perry doesn't waste his time while Doof isn't being evil.
  • Apparently, the creator of football X-7, Professor Ross Eforp, was forced into hiding due to "Palindrome Scandal!"
  • "Nostrils on the bus!"
  • Lawrence's victory dance.
    Lawrence: I'm awesome, you're not! I'm awesome, you're not!
  • "No, the curse is broken. Sometimes you just miss."
  • During the 'You're totally messing with me!' sequence, you can occasionally see the football game being played in the background. It's just a little thing, but it's hilarious to see Phineas, Ferb, one of the Peles and one of the Beckhams darting past over and over while Candace is learning a 'valuable' lesson.
  • Just after Ferb's cousins question his Britishness, Baljeet shows up to return his cowboy hat, his baseball mitt, his banjo CDs, his American flag leotard, and his bald eagle. And Phineas's sack:
    Phineas: "Cool! Come to papa..."
  • Professor Ross Eforp's first design was actually destroyed by a bird flying into it.

    Bullseye! 
  • Evil Lawrence. That's exactly as funny as it sounds.
    • The boys' reactions to seeing him acting evil in an evil event are amusingly nonchalant.
    Phineas: I think that's dad.
    Ferb: (Beat) What was the topic of his lecture, again?
    Phineas: Hi, Dad!
    (After he's been returned to normal)
    Phineas: So, how did it go, Dad?
    Lawrence: I'm not absolutely sure boys, but I think I just became the king of the pharmacists.
    Phineas: Awesome!
  • All of the Contrived Coincidence in "Bullseye!" makes it all the better. Especially Palindrome Lane and Lawrence's entry in the swimwear competition (...and the fact that he wore his bathing suit to the lecture, actually) "Inspired by the Klimpaloon!"
    Doofenshmirtz: Hey, that's my Make-Everything-Evil-Inator!
    Rodney: No, it's my Make-Everything-Evil-Izer.
    Doofenshmirtz: You're a jerk, you know that?
  • How about Doof forgetting what L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N stands for and dissolving into gibberish? Even better if you've done the same thing with the acronym prior to watching.
    • And especially funny when you remember that he's the one that made the name up in the first place.
  • Candace's reaction to her mom pulling Fake Static. "I hate when she does 'cshhhhhh'!" Somehow, it's not hard to believe that it's happened before.
  • Lawrence's general ineptitude for evil falls squarely between CMOF and Heartwarming. Even he realizes that he's doing things horribly wrong. Rodney and Doof comment on this phenomenon:
    Rodney: I didn't think anyone could be more incompetent at being evil than you.
    Doof: Me neither.
  • Dr. Doofenshmirtz (unintentionally?) replicating his humiliating video.
    Doof: I thought this was the talent competition!
  • "I'm Dr. Diminutive, and I don't have a Napoleon complex...Napoleon had a me complex!"
    • "I'm Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, and I like unicorns and rainbow...hey, who switched my speech!?"
  • You had to see it coming a mile away, but this exchange from the musical number was worth a laugh, too:
    Dr. Diminutive: (He's been disqualified for being too short) You can't do that!
    Singers: YES! WE! CAN!
    Dr. Diminutive: Why?
    Singers: 'Cause we're evil!
  • Lawrence popping up through the floor as the evil scientists finish their musical number.
  • Doof effortlessly winning the "Mechanical Mother" round of the competition (especially funny because he's confident that he'll win this one):
    Doof: I am getting married...again! [Mechanical Mother explodes]
  • Blink-and-you'll-miss it; Lawrence actually earns a few points on the swimwear category. Apparently, someone in the audience thought his old-timey swimwear was evil.

    That's the Spirit 
  • This:
    Baljeet: Actually, there is no scientific evidence for the existence of ghosts.
    Buford: What do you know? You're a daffodil.
    Baljeet: Daisy...
    Buford: Case closed!
  • This little gem:
    Phineas (all in pitch-darkness): Don't panic anyone.
    Isabella (sweetly): How can I panic when I'm holding your hand?
    Buford: I think that's my hand.
    Isabella: EW!
  • The zombies moaning for not only brains but also other organs and cucumber sandwiches.
  • "I'm not a ghost, I'm a sheet that lives!"

    The Curse of Candace 
  • The episode opens with a spoof of a Twilight movie called "Early Evening".
    • Vampire Jared gets distracted by Werewolf Michael suddenly being shirtless.
      Vampire Jared: We loved each other.
      Kristen: Yes. Yes we did.
      Vampire Jared: We did and—wait a minute, wasn't he wearing a shirt?
    • Near the end of the clip, Vampire Jared turns to dust after the curtains are opened and he's exposed to the sun.
      Kristen: Where did that wind come from...?
      Werewolf Michael: Whoops, sorry. I opened a window; it was getting stuffy in here.
  • Stacy and an usher casually chat while Candace is being attacked by a bat and rolling around in hysterics.
  • Once the action cuts to the backyard, Phineas lampshades how long the summer/series has been going on for.
    Phineas: I know what you mean, Ferb. It does seem like more than 104 days.
  • Lawrence watches a horror movie and laments the lack of rock-and-roll musical numbers.
  • Irving pops over the fence to join the line of requests:
    Buford: How long have you been there?
    Irving: I'm not sure. What's today?
  • Ferb's idea of helping Candace with her claims of vampirism.
    Ferb: Sounds like a vampire to me. (Starts walking away)
  • Candace being afraid (for good reason) of villagers.
  • Jeremy gets hit with the Gimmelschtumpinator and picks up a goofy accent.
    Jeremy: (holding Candace's mp3 player) Vat about your music box mit ze Tiny Cowboy?
  • Candace inexplicably disintegrating after exposure to the sun right after Phineas insists that she won't.
    Phineas: (Beat) Ferb, we're gonna need a dustpan and some glue.
  • Doofenshmirtz going to use the bathroom, only to remember he used his Gimmelschtump-inator on it. Then, when Perry destroys the inator, Doofenshmirtz starts to yell his Catchphrase, only to stop and say "Oh, never mind!" after his bathroom turns back to normal.

    Escape from Phineas Tower 
  • After Phineas and Ferb lock themselves in the tower:
    Baljeet: Legally speaking, what is our liability here?
  • Isabella, Buford and Baljeet talking about how worried they are in a totally uncaring tone of voice, all while covering the sleeping Candace in whipped cream and cards.

    Lotsa Latkes 
  • While it's not overly funny in and of itself, the premise and presentation of the song was absolutely hilarious. It's a show tune devoted to Buford and Baljeet's status as "Frenemies".
  • This little exchange:
    Isabella: Why did you install a hot tub in this [the potato maker]?
    Phineas: I think the real question is 'Why wouldn't we?'
  • The ending of the episode itself, after Ferb's obligatory line. Earlier in the episode, there was a throwaway gag about a list of "S words seldom used by children" (it's not what you're thinking). At the end of the episode, Phineas uses another word on the list and it's just something about Ferb's absolute deadpan as he crosses it off that makes it hilarious.
  • The Stinger. An archeologist exploring a dig site in Mongolia discovers a mural depicting an ancient legend and shows it to a companion, but now it's...different. What especially sells it is the archeologist's increasingly baffled tone as he translates it:
    Archeologist: This is it, no one has seen this for a thousand years. The legend tells of an epic battle between the Mongol army and...potato gremlin creatures, while a...pharmacist from the future worked in vain to return to his time, crying out "Curse you, Perry the Platypus!"...??
    (beat; his companion wordlessly turns around and leaves)
    Archeologist: I swear, I majored in this in college!

    Ferb Latin 
  • The normally inexpressive Norm doing an Eye Take and his mouth falling off when Dr. Doofenshmirtz informs him that he does, in fact, have a self-destruct button.
  • "Hey... where's... Spatula?"
  • "Uh-uh-uh, Norm. Take the dollar, leave the platypus."
  • The kids practicing saying "goodbye" in Ferb Latin, which involves blowing raspberries. For several seconds straight. Made funnier when Irving shows up randomly to join in.
  • "I don't think we have anything to say to each other! Not after the..." *sniffle* "...JAZZ HANDS!"note 
  • When Norm walks out through the wall (right next to the door):
    Doofenshmirtz: "And when you come back, use the door!" (to Perry) "He gets that from you, you know."

    A Phineas and Ferb Family Christmas 

    Tri-Stone Area 
  • The fact that this episode works as well as it does is hysterical. Nearly every Once an Episode gag appears, and without a single word of any proper language, you can follow all of it. This is a show that's proud to be Strictly Formula.
  • The caveman speak is amusing.
    "(Gasp) Canduk mak a foomfa!"
  • Caveman!Doof watching the drops fall on rocks and going into hysterics. It's so utterly dumb, but it's impossible not to laugh at.
  • Mog tells Can-Tok she's in charge. She in turn tells her brothers:
    Can-Tok: Phinabunk and Gerb! Can-tok in charga!
    Phinabunk: Can-Tok in charga? (pointing upward) Du mhakka satellakkah?
  • All of Dan and Swampy's photo animation scenes. Especially the end, when they realize they need their Once an Episode song and make one up on the spot, which eventually turns into a caveman version of "Gitchee Gitchee Goo".
    Dan: How about Zu-bu-da-yia, zu-bu-da-yia.'
    Swampy: Do it again.
  • This exchange:
    Gerb: I guess we should wait until tomorrow until we tell them about our new language.
    Phinabunk: Yes, yes we should.

    Doof Dynasty 

    Excaliferb 
  • The constant Lampshading in the "Epic Monster Battle" song.
  • Carl trying to insert himself into the end of the story as the ultimate hero.
  • Malifishmirtz explains why he wants to take over the Tri-Kingdom area, while walking down an enclosed stone spiral staircase. The first time he enters his voice is muffled, then he exits speaks clearly, goes back into the staircase and is muffled again. He comes out with his hand covering his mouth mumbling into it. Then he says the mumbling is what "I said because I had a gag over my mouth."
  • This exchange:
    Bufavalous: Mother always said if all the other kids were jumping off a cliff, I should do it too.
    Baljeetolas: Your mother said that?
    Bufavalous: She was not a nurturer.
  • Ferb-a-lot's speech.
    "Behold evil wizard Malefishmirtz, I hold the sword Excaliferb. This mystical vorpal blade was given to me by The Lady of the Puddle. Get a good look at it, for it is the instrument of your demise! (The blade of the sword falls off the hilt) Well, uh, okay. So big deal, the end comes off."
  • Literal cliffhanger.
  • Baljeet as Legolas.
    Baljeetolas: If by my bow or by my vast stores of useless knowledge, I may aid you — hey, where is my bow?
    Bufavalous: You left it in the booth.
    Baljeetolas: Oh, excuse me. Well, there it is. (prepares to strike a badass pose when:) Has anyone seen my arrows?
    Bufavalous: Bathroom!
  • Poofenplotz as the troll that guards the bridge.
    Poofenplotz: Do I look like a troll to you?
    Baljeetolas: Do not answer truthfully, it will only enrage her.
  • Poofenplotz says that all answers must be in the form of a haiku, but the band crosses the very shallow water under the bridge anyway, but not before Baljeetolas says this:
    Just for the record,
    The answer to your riddle
    Is an egg. Bye, now!
    • Then Poofenplotz berates the group, but not before counting on her fingers, "Just-for-the-re-cord-the-an-swer-to-your-rid-dle-is-an-egg-bye-now" to confirm it was a haiku.
  • This bit:
    Candavere: This is a most inopportune time for your infernal hijinks, and for once our sad sweet mother will be heralded to your inpropri- Argh, I can't talk like this anymore! You guys are so busted! Mom!
    Phineas: I don't know about you Ferbalot, but I didn't get any of that.
    • Related — Phineas speaks nothing but modern American English for the entirety of the episode.
  • Baljeetolas trying to explain logic to Bufavalous before giving up and telling him there's pie on the other side of the swamp.
  • Malefishmirtz sending forth his army of Meatlings:
    Malefishmirtz: Rain down on my enemies, and stop them from advancing! And bring me back a newspaper.

    Phineas and Ferb and the Temple of Juatchadoon 
  • This episode has some hilarious running jokes: the fezzes, Isabella's business cards, and the slow clapping.
    "You mean we're not in Egypt? I thought those pyramids were kinda stair-steppy."
    • An expansion on Isabella's business cards gag, later she's revealed to be working with Doof to keep her mother safe (somewhat). After Phineas's 'dirty double-crosser' remark, she hands him a card saying she forgot to give him that one. It reads 'Dirty Double-Crosser'. Phineas then gives the fourth wall a completely deadpan -_- look.
  • Ohio asking why ancient civilizations were always creating stuff like the Corn Colossus.
  • Perry's entrance to the temple.
  • The Fez Dispenser.
  • Baljeet hitting on Isabella's mom.
  • Ohio questioning why the Corn Colossus doesn't turn into popcorn after it gets set on fire, then getting upset when it does so after they destroy it.
  • "Too soon for a Call-Back, Norm."
  • When the Temple of Juatchadoon begins to fall apart with Perry and Doof still inside:
    Doof: Oh, terrific, the temple’s falling apart, you happy? Probably my face will melt now, and for what?

    Monster from the Id 
  • Buford giving tours of Candace's mind.
  • The reveal that Candace is afraid of the number 7.
  • What's Doofenshmirtz doing when Perry arrives?
    Doof: (singing) "Eating cereal looks like this!"
  • Irving's Absurd Phobia of the color lavender.
    Irving: (slowly) It can't hurt me anymore.
  • Norm's non-reaction to the Underwear-inator.

    Gi-Ants 
  • Phineas and Ferb revealing the "Antius Maximus" ant farm they built, only for the scene to cut to a regular-sized ant farm. Phineas then explains it's just a scale model and reveals the real Antius Maximus just beside them, which causes the others to wonder why they didn't notice it earlier.
  • As a variation of the running gag where a bird flies into Phineas and Ferb's invention, a fly crashes into the regular-sized ant farm.
  • “You know what I like about our friends? We say things like, ‘We’re going to douse you in ant pheromones’, and they’re just like, ‘Okay, whatever.’ They’re so cool.”
  • Buford has no qualms with the aforementioned pheromones. Evidently, it smells like his grandma's house.
    • Later:
    Candace: (after repeatedly getting showered with pheromones) Urgh, tastes like Buford's grandmother's house.
  • "Oh, like you've never tampered with the delicately-balanced yet awesome forces of nature."
  • Candace presses what she thinks is the ant farm's doorbell and gets showered with ant pheromones. Instead of realizing it's not actually a doorbell she keeps right on pressing it, causing her to be doused with so much pheromone the ants adopt her as their queen.
  • One of the objects the Turkey-Inator hits and turns into a roast turkey is... a roast turkey.

    The Remains of the Platypus 
  • The entire In Medias Res beginning. How does this madness start? We've got Doofenshmirtz in his underwear (with an evil jingle to go with it), Perry the Platypus dressed as a butler and spinning a giant hamster wheel, Carl locked up in a cage and dressed as a squirrel, a bunch of Buckingham guards and a midget dressed up as an alien dancing to techno music, a strangely bloated Monogram yelling "I won! I won!" while Carl berates him, and a horrified Linda delivering Perry's hat to Doof's apartment, reflecting that things couldn't get any weirder.
  • When Carl dressed as a squirrel is caged by Doofenshmirtz, he uses the metaphor of it being like a delivery man dropping a bunch of assorted cheeses on his lawn. When an actual delivery man does just that, Phineas remarks that it's like "a caged guy in a squirrel costume". Both note that they are strange metaphors, but they're standing by them.
  • The Fireside Girls are getting their Flying Delivery Patches again, prompting some delicious snark among them.
  • All of Buford's cheese puns were so gouda.
  • Two words: Bloated. Monogram.
  • After seeing Carl in his "Squirrel Con" suit, Doofenshmirtz comments "Aw man, I just sprayed for squirrel men."
  • The fact that Doof spends so much of the episode in his underwear.
  • Monogram tracing his hand to draw a glove for Perry. He then proceeds to make it into a turkey. Leading to this Black Comedy Call-Back.
    Monogram: Look, it's Agent T! (Perry stares at him in shock) What? Too soon?

    Mom's in the House 
  • One highlight of this episode is near the end, when one of Doofenshmirtz' extra heads falls off the building and on to the street below. As it questions why it couldn't have disappeared in a puff of smoke before it landed, this happens:
    Extra Doof head: Curse you Pe—
    (The head poofs out of existence)
    Doof looking from above: Oh no! Now I'll never get to know what he was going to say!
  • Candace trying to explain herself to Stacy and completely messing up the phrase.
    Candace: There is a madness to my method!
  • Every time Doofenshmirtz and/or his cloned heads talk in unison.
  • The "Perrytronic" song is a pastiche of the theme song to Gigantor whose lyrics are largely about how it can't literally turn into anything.
    It can assume any form
    Hang on, I'm gonna back-pedal
    There's just one caveat
    It must be big and metal
  • During the "Perrytronic" song, Phineas, Ferb and the gang dramatically make their eyes go in two different directions like Perry does.

    Perry the Actorpus 
  • Major Monogram giving Perry Puppy-Dog Eyes as he asks him to help Agent S, followed by him lampshading that he can't hold his eyes that way any longer.
  • Doofenshmirtz making derogatory remarks about big bushy mustaches while speaking to Monogram.
  • Candace giving a calm, inspirational speech after noticing Phineas and Ferb's project about being mature and overcoming her desire to bust her brothers, only to end it on the note that she's going to bust them anyway without changing tact. The others at the "Stop the Busting" workshop don't realize what she actually said until she leaves and gives her their full support.
  • The "Half a Day" montage showing how Phineas and Ferb spend their time with Perry, including Ferb holding up Perry so Perry can throw a frisbee back to Phineas with his mouth, followed by Phineas catching the frisbee with his mouth.
  • Doofenshmirtz's regular traps not working on Sergei the Snail, due to Agent S being either small enough to slip through them or sticking to trapdoors with its slime.

    Let's Bounce 
  • Isabella wonders why they don't just blast themselves with weightlessness. When Candace comes to them citing this as the problem she's been having all morning, Isabella briefly goes Cloud Cuckoo Lander:
    Isabella: Just mentioned that, I thought it would be so fun to—
    Baljeet: Not a good time for that.
  • Doof's Unusual Euphemisms as he runs from robotic Abe Lincoln.
    • "He's gonna John Wilkes my Booth! (Beat) What, too soon?"
    • He's gonna emancipate my proclamation!"

    Bully Bromance Breakup 
  • Phineas slowly going into a Heroic BSoD as Baljeet denies him the opportunity to invent something. Especially the part where they were mountain climbing.
  • Ferb dropping his blueprints in horror when Baljeet first announces that no inventions would be used.
  • The relief it gives Phineas and Ferb when they finally conquer the mountain and have permission to make something.
    Isabella: Phineas, go!
    Phineas: ICE CHALET!!! (runs off at the speed of light)
    Ferb: If we hadn't been able to invent something soon, I was going to scream.
    • Extra funny if you remember exactly how Ferb screams.
    • And just a little bit later:
    Isabella: You need to pace yourself... you're gonna get the bends or something.
  • When they're in the ice chalet:
    Isabella: How are you feeling, Phineas?
    Phineas: (relaxing in a hot tub made of ice) Comin' down now, comin' down.
  • Doofenshmirtz's plan this episode was to use his new invention, the sculptinator to carve Mt Danville in the shape of his face. Unfortunately, just as he's about to have his face scanned, Perry punches Doof in the face and his inator carves his messed up face into the mountain. Needless to say, Doof is less than happy with the results.

    Quietest Day Ever 
  • The kids are wearing full-body ninja outfits. As such, Buford can't tell which direction Phineas is facing.
    Phineas: Good question. (Rolls his eyes around) Left.

    The Doonkelberry Imperative 
  • The 'Drusselstein Driving Test Waltz' portion. Doofenshmirtz's driving and Perry's reaction made the whole episode.
    • Adding to it is Perry being so scared for his life that he secures himself with several extra seatbelts and later writes out his will. By the end, poor Perry's so scared he visibly has shell shock.
  • Monogram's talking letter. Especially seeing Perry's reaction to it.
  • When Vanessa takes Candace to the Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc. building, she does the jingle:
    Vanessa: "Lookin' for books at my dad's place!"
    Candace: Why are you singing that?
    Vanessa: It's just something we do.
  • "Curse you, conceptual elasticity of space-time!"
  • Phineas and friends are trying to solve the country's energy problems, which is happening because the goats rotating the giant wooden shaft that's powering everything want to go in different directions.

    Meapless in Seattle 
  • The alien army marching - to cute, friendly music.
    • With adorable mecha. That skip.
    • While the tune may be cute and friendly, the lyrics are anything but:
    Doo-doo-doo-doo-destroy your enemies/La-la-la-la-let's bring them to their knees/We're going to war!
  • This bit:
    Candace: Mom, look! I'm in mortal danger! Say hi, Ferb!
    Ferb: *waves*
  • The Star Wars-esque beginning, lampshading that the trailer seen in Chronicles of Meap was meant as a joke but everyone took it seriously. At the end of the episode, they show another trailer for another episode they have no intention of making.
  • Since the writers were more or less forced to incorporate the seemingly unrelated scenes from the first trailer, some pretty priceless scenes were made. Those scenes savored how contrived incorporated they are:
    • Perry's mission briefing.
    Major Monogram: I want your hat on my desk!...Cuz it rains a lot in Seattle, and we want to spray it with this cool new waterproofing treatment.
    • The context for the line "What? Jeremy's going to be there!"
    Candace: Yeah, I've been spending all my time worrying about Phineas and Ferb. I used to have other things to worry about. Like... What? Jeremy's going to be there! I just need to broaden my anxieties.
  • All of the jokes about how much it rains in the northwest. Anybody who lives there can shamelessly tell you that they're absolutely true.
    "How will we know when we get to Seattle?"
 ~cue driving rain and grunge music~
  • Linda's French lesson telling her basically all the things Candace would be telling her at that moment, complete with her lampshading it, asking when those sentences would ever turn up in a conversation.
  • Cute Doof. That is all.
    • But a specific part would be that ingesting the cuteonium is supposed to make someone so cute they are impossible to resist. For Doof... Well, he's cute at least.
    Mitch: How homely were you before?
  • Phineas under the influence of Meap's cuteness.
    "Awwww, they're blasting away at each other with really cute death rays!"
    • Cue Mitch's robot armor chasing Ferb, Isabella and Candace in the background.
  • Apparently, the worst punishment you can receive on Meap's planet is a time out. Yes, like the kind you give toddlers.
    Meap: He's getting a serious time out this time. Fifteen, sixteen minutes.
  • When Isabella does her 'Whatcha doing?' routine, Phineas and Ferb just pick her up and haul her away like she's a rag doll. And other than perhaps the initial surprise, she doesn't seem to mind at all.
  • Meap's many Translation Mustaches.
  • The return of Doof's affair with Peter the Panda, and Perry's subsequent angry look and crossed arms like a spouse catching their husband on a coffee date with their ex.
  • Mitch's theme song.
  • Isabella's annoyed look when Phineas brought up the cute tracker.
  • Doofenshmirtz remarking that one really does learn things about oneself in crises, in this case, the fact that he runs slower than a platypus and faster than a panda.
  • Doofenshmirtz claims that his day can't get any weirder moments before Peter and Perry save him from falling to his doom. His response is "Nice try, but the mustache thing was still weirder."
  • Doofenshmirtz's whole commentary on the extraction chamber:
    Doof: So you have a whole chamber dedicated to extracting things from other things? That really comes up that often in your life?
  • When Meap and Cute Doofenshmirtz are falling from the sky, we get this glorious exchange.
    Meap: Well, my little friend, it looks like we're about to fall to our untimely demise.
    Doofenshmirtz: Speak for yourself! I'm gonna try and land on you, so you'll break my fall!
  • When Phineas is telling Isabella that she can out-cute Mitch to save the universe:
    Isabella: ...So, what you're saying is, you think I'm cute?
    Phineas: It's a scientific fact! I had to put an eight-thousand-ohm resistor on the cute-tracker just to keep you from burning it out!
    Isabella (long pause): ...Close enough.
  • Isabella out-cutes Mitch with the most epic "Watcha doin'?" ever.
  • The Spoof Aesop at the end.
    Phineas: I think we've all learned a valuable lesson today... but we all know what it is, so why bother restating it?

    Delivery of Destiny 
  • Love Handel turning everything they hear or see into a song.
  • When Paul the delivery guy hitches a ride to foil Doofenshmirtz, he tosses Love Handel a packing tape gun and orders them "tape yourselves together!" Not only does he apparently think he needs to bring the band along, but they instantly go along with it and somehow keep playing while taped together.

    Buford Confidential 
  • The episode's plot is Buford runs from his crush in a bear suit while Doofenshmirtz declares war on twisted pretzels.
  • "Wait a minute, you speak Latin?!"
  • Grandpa Flynn playing senile.
  • Baljeet's actions throughout the whole episode — he acts like a jealous boyfriend watching his partner deal with his ex. He demands to know why Buford has never mentioned Brigitte until now, and opts to basically ignore him as he's trapped in the woods with his ex-girlfriend. They only make eye contact again after Brigitte has slapped Buford across the face and walked away.
    • It's most blatant in this exchange over the phone:
    Buford: Tell me she's been deported!
    Baljeet: Buford, what are you doing?
    Buford: The forest is filled with patch-crazed Europeans, and I'm a bear in the woods! What do you think I'm doing?
    Phineas: Ooh! Ooh! I know!
    Buford: Am I on speaker phone?! Get me off speaker phone!
    • Not to mention directly after the above exchange, when Phineas asks Baljeet if he wants to help them build a super sprinkler, and Baljeet immediately tosses his phone aside to join in.
  • Isabella and the two other French Fireside Girls gradually getting weirded out by Brigette's intensity about the North American Tracking Patch.
  • Ferb's line is muffled by his swimming gear.
    Phineas: Oh man, that would've been so funny without the snorkel!
  • "She said she was vaguely interested in me." The cheeky grin he has after saying that sells it.

    The Mom Attractor 

    Cranius Maximus 
  • Absolutely everything about Baljeet's Drunk on the Dark Side spiel is hysterical.
  • Baljeet's "hopped up on super-accelerated brain power" plan: since the Earth's atmosphere prevents the cosmos from being seen clearly from the ground, clearly the best thing For Science! would be to move the Earth's atmosphere to the moon. Even after it's pointed out to him, he never seems to fully realize that if there were no air he wouldn't be alive to actually take advantage of it.
  • Isabella being thoroughly nonchalant about the fact that the building they are in is literally counting down to the Armageddon while Baljeet panics like a maniac.
    • Isabella is hilariously unfazed in general in this episode. Like when it looks like Baljeet has stopped them from turning him back to normal at first, and that they're all doomed.
    <as casual as if she was announcing it's raining> "I was so looking forward to junior high."
  • Doof Comically Missing the Point about the key to the city.
  • Perry's Narnia-style entrance, followed by Major Monogram's explanation: The trees are left over from Christmas, and the snow is there because the air conditioner is broken.
  • Perry surprise-attacking Doofenshmirtz while he was just getting dressed. And when Doof tells him he could have waited until he put his pants on, Perry just looks guilty.

    Agent Doof 
  • The O.W.C.A. can't refuse to recruit Doofenshmirtz based on his species because he was adopted by ocelots and thus is technically an ocelot. What really sells it is that the agency only employing animals and Doof having been raised by ocelots were both already well-established facts before the episode.
  • Doof's Babe-inator turned Phineas and Ferb into babies. Candace gets them to their mom right as Norm's cleaning of the -inator manages to zap everyone in the room except for Candace as well.
    Candace: Okay, I get it, lesson learned. Toddlers aren't easy. The irony is not lost on me! A little help here? This had better wear off before the next episode.
    • Perry's reaction to the name "Babe-inator."
    Doofenshmirtz: "No, it's not what you think."
  • Despite blowing Agent Silent G's cover and destroying Monogram's car, the thing that ultimately gets Doofenshmirtz fired from the O.W.C.A is a number of complaints from Human Resources.
  • "We'll be a great team, like Lewis & Clark or Alice and Wonderland."

    Minor Monogram 
  • Monty and Monogram's argument over whether he'll be an O.W.C.A. agent or an acrobat. All while Carl is pining for Monogram's attention and Perry is sitting there, wincing uncomfortably, just wishing to get his mission briefing and get out of there.
  • Baljeet reacting positively about Autumn coming soon while everyone else doesn't care.
  • This exchange:
    Rodrigo: Wait, you can understand him?
    Doofenshmirtz: Oh, heck no. I usually just pretend he's talking about recent movies I've seen.
  • Perry's reaction to Vanessa showing attraction towards Monty Monogram.
  • Doofenshmirtz referring to Vanessa's goth/punk fashion style as "vampire pilgrim scuba-diver".
  • When Rodrigo betrays him, Doof doesn't quite get it at first:
    Doof: "Is this, like, a robot hug for a job well done?"
    Rodrigo: "No, it's a trap. What does that even mean, a robot hug for a job well done?! Who would even consider that a possibility!?"
  • Perry's Jaw Drop once he realizes what Vanessa is thinking.

    What A Croc! 
  • During the song where they're chasing after the titular croc, the kids are all paired up on motorboats (including Phineas and Isabella). In the middle of the song though, they repeatedly go through tunnels... and come out in completely different pairs than they had when they entered. In addition, the motorboats they're riding on are different colors each time this happens. No one says anything about it, but the confused 'How did THAT happen?' looks are what sell it.
  • The Horse in a Bookcase.
  • Doof springs this episode's trap...and it falls on him instead of Perry.
    Doof: "I'm gonna chalk that up to poor planning."
  • The reveal of the Chicken-replace-inator, the fact that it is shaped like a chicken and accompanied by an ominous choir clucking. ("Buck buck baaaaaaaaawwwwk...")
  • At the end of the episode, through a combination of events, Candace ends up sitting on a chicken.
    Linda: "Candace, why are you sitting on a chicken?"
    Candace: "I'll be right back!" (runs off)
    Linda: "But why was she sitting on a chicken?"
  • Candace's mathematician's answers to Irving:
    Irving: (knocks on the door) "Hello, Candace. Are Phineas and Ferb home?"
    Candace: "Yes." (closes the door)
    Irving: (knocks again) "Can I see them?"
    Candace: "Probably not from there." (closes the door)

    Sleepwalk Surprise 
  • Doofenshmirtz and his inner self and his inner self's flashbacks and dreams...
    • Not to mention the most contrived scheme he has ever made, and that is definitely saying something.
    • Doof's whole inner dreamland. Among other things, he has Perry's hat and tail.
  • Candace arguing with her own brain. "Stop telling me what to do!"
  • Norm getting hit by the hug-inator.
  • Candace's reaction to seeing the volleyball turn into a cake in her hand and the jetpacks all gather themselves up and turn into confetti.
    Candace: "...Well, this has been a weird day."
    • She then covers by telling Jeremy it's their "two-month, nine-day anniversary."
    Jeremy: "Cool!" (to Phineas and Ferb) "Was I supposed to get her something?"

    Sci-Fi Pie Fly 

    Sipping with the Enemy 
  • Vanessa and Monty meeting each other, growing to like each other, arguing with each other and despite this, they still are open to have another date.
    Monty: You know what, our fathers are probably right. We shouldn't even be talking to each other.
    Vanessa: This was a huge mistake.
    Both: Fine!
    Monty: ...so want to do this again?
    Vanessa: Call me.
  • During their fight, Vanessa gives us this zinger:
    Vanessa: You do know what he [Monty's dad] calls a "spy network" is actually just a petting zoo. With hats.
    • Look at Perry when she says that. He's clearly insulted.
  • "MIIIIIIIND FLIP!"
  • The "cool" versions of Lawrence and Linda are pretty funny, but the capper is Candace's angry reaction to their pretentiousness.

    Tri-State Treasure: Boot of Secrets 
  • The entire sequence with Lawrence and the boys looking for the shoe scraper ending with the antagonist turning into a giant monster, the Flynn-Fletchers getting into flying saucers with minor characters seen in previous episodes and attacking the monster - only with it all turning out to be a film made by Phineas and Ferb.
  • Teenage Doofenshmirtz was pretty funny, as well as his video for the film contest.
    *film starts* Doof: Make me your leader. *film ends*
  • The end credits where Major Monogram is trying to think of his own theme song, after Perry and Carl have theirs.

    Doofapus 
  • The fight between Platypus!Doof and Perry had some funny moments, like when they have a break and have tea together.
  • Isabella and Baljeet's reactions to Buford having a life-sized mold of Candace.
    • Linda stating matter-of-factly that Buford has molds of everyone.
  • The scene where Isabella offered the romantic dinner smoothie to Phineas has him responding that he doesn't want it. Naturally, Isabella acts annoyed, but then Phineas reveals that he just doesn't like zucchini.
  • Perry's expression when he first sees Platypus!Doof.
  • What about when Phineas, Ferb, and the others saw the invention of the day double and then liquefy?
    Phineas: Anyone else see that?

    Norm Unleashed 
  • The argument that ensues in the courtroom while Doof is on jury duty.
    • Oh, and the case Doof is a juror in? The state vs Dr. Diminutive.
      Judge: Do you two know each other?
      Doof: I have never seen him before in my life.
      Diminutive: He LIES! I have proof! (Takes out wallet with pictures of Doof and Diminutive in a drag act) The 2007 LOVEMUFFIN Pudding Revue!
      Doof: Why would you carry that in your wallet?! (to guy sitting beside him) What would he carry that in his wallet!?
    • Diminutive's lawyer's reaction to the argument.
  • Norm's amazingly cheerful song about destroying the Tri-State Area with weapons.
  • Norm's revelation of his weaponry:
    Norm: Dr. D will be so proud! Assuming he survives the cataclysm. Have a nice day!

    Where's Perry? 
  • When the Flynn-Fletchers and their friends get off the plane, we find out that Candace was in the luggage.
    • Furthermore she's not the only teenage girl rendered catatonic from phone deprivation in the luggage carousel.
  • Lots of funny Continuity Nods, including:
    Isabella: Wow, that was fun! Thank you for teaching me the Adumu.
    Guy teaching her: And thank you for teaching us the "Izzy's got the Frizzies".
  • This exchange:
    Doof: But my intelligence specifically said that you would be sunbathing, it never mentioned an intern.
    Monogram: That's because he's not officially an employee, he's unpaid.
    Doof: You don't pay him?
    Monogram: He gets college credit.
    Doof: Are you sure you're not evil?
  • The way Doof dances to Evil for Extra Credit is quite amusing.
    • Let's not forget the song itself.
  • Another Continuity Nod:
    Carl: You may have escaped, but you are no match for my evil Flynn-Fletcher robots!
    Doofenshmirtz: This is really weird... I think I may have gone on a date with that one. (referring to Linda/Lindana's double) I had no idea she was a robot at the time.
  • We get a couple of dramatic scenes at the end of Part 1: Candace thinks that Jeremy is breaking up with her, Phineas, Ferb, and their friends are plummeting to their possible deaths, Perry disappears after being hit by one of the many -inators, and Linda and Lawrence find out they do not have a reservation at a restaurant. The last one’s treated with the same seriousness as the others.

    Where's Perry? (Part Two) 
  • That last situation Part One ended with? Turns out it was under a different name so its resolved with no foul.
  • As Monogram puts on a pair of sunglasses, Doofenshmirtz brings everything to a temporary halt.
    Doofenshmirtz: Waitaminute, waitaminute; How did you get the glasses to go on one side of your face? Who made these things, M.C. Escher?
    Monogram: He was a family friend!
    • The animation helps sell the gag. When Doofenshmirtz takes off the sunglasses to look at them from different angles, the earpieces stick out at random directions and it's impossible to tell the front from the back.
  • Doofenshmirtz and Major Monogram crash an OWCA plane into the middle of a climactic fight.
    Doofenshmirtz: See? See, one day you're gonna look back on this and laugh.
    Major Monogram: I assure you, for the rest of my life, every time I look back on this I will personally drive over to your house and smack you.
  • The Monogram robot puts up his dukes in front of his human counterpart.
    Monogram Robot: Put 'em up, handsome!
  • In recognition of his services to the agency, Carl is officially promoted at the end of the episode to the title of "Paid Intern". They won't actually be paying him, it's just a title.

    Ferb TV 
  • The whole episode is a series of hilarious TV show parodies featuring minor characters on the show. Phineas and Ferb only appear at the start to admit to the audience that the concept is kinda weird. Then the ending reveals Phineas and Ferb were showing their latest project to Candace.
  • "The Klimpaloon and Inexplicable Giant Floating Baby Head Variety Show"
    • The Abbott and Costello-esque comedy team that acts like they're setting up "Who's on First?"...and then just stops.
    • We then cut back to see that one of them have been conked on the head by the jugglers. They stand around awkwardly for a moment and then cut away.
  • Dancing With The Bears.
    • Especially if you recognize minor character Bob ("Okay!") and realize that he, not his bear dance partner was the one who tried to maul one of the judges.
  • Katt Karr, "The inexplicable story of a man whose car, for some reason, looks a lot like a cat."
    • After busting his arch-nemesis Dr. Nibbles, Roger runs out of rat metaphors.
  • "That's the Norm" in all its cheesy, 1970's sit-com glory.
    • "Space is cold and unforgiving, just like my father!"
    • The bit with the "lumpy table" ends with the reveal that it really was a lumpy table. Norm was off getting more lemonade for Suzy.
  • "Dr. Ninja Baljeet", versus the hot squid-headed shapeshifting alien zombies. Where's Agents J & K when you need them?
  • Buford is the host of a Kitchen Nightmares parody called Your Cooking Stinks, and So Do You!
    Buford: Who puts tofu in lasagna?!
    Chef: I was just trying to be avant garde...
    Buford: Yeah, people need to be avant guarded from your food!
  • We finally learn what Ducky Momo is like - basically, Dora the Explorer, but the protagonist is so annoying, stupid and preparative that the kids helping him get fed up and start to wonder how he's even survived so long. No wonder Candace identified so much with a show about the inability to get a character to turn around and notice something.
  • The kids from the "Skiddley Whiffers" commercial show up in an ad for Meap Carbonated Goulash, "the goulash with foam!"
  • A Fireside Girls ad that pastiches recruitment ads for the U.S. Navy features the girls in all their Badass Adorable glory, including Katie beating a burly sailor in an arm-wrestling contest.
  • The return of the Horse in a Bookcase.
  • During the credits:
    Narrator: Meap Carbonated Goulash pieces are closer than they appear. Meap Carbonated Goulash may be subject to tax investigation. Please wash hands thoroughly after contact with Meap Carbonated Goulash. If hunger persists after contact with Meap Carbonated Goulash, consult your...
    Doofenshmirtz: (offscreen) Oh, I'm sorry. Is this studio A?
    Narrator: No, this is studio- hey, wait a second, you just wanted to get into this episode, didn't you?
    Doofenshmirtz: What?! No! NO!
    Narrator: Yes, you did!
    Doofenshmirtz: Yes, I did.
    Narrator: Get Out!
    Doofenshmirtz: Alright, but I can totally read that faster than you.
    Narrator: Out!
    Doofenshmirtz: Okay, okay, grumpy!
    Narrator: Batteries not included.
    Doofenshmirtz: Batteriesnotincluded!
    Narrator: OUT!!

    When Worlds Collide 
  • The Bust Accord has some pretty amusing entries. Candace has apparently had to agree not to bust her brothers while covered in honey and hair, from a distance of more than 1500 miles, or while pie is being served.
  • Perry getting stuck in Doofenshmirtz' Double Dutch machine. Notable because it wasn't even a trap.
  • Doofenshmirtz's Peter the Panda slippers.
  • When Baljeet panics at the thought of the two planets colliding, Phineas tries to reassure him that government scientists are probably doing something. Gilligan Cut to the North American Planetary Defense Headquarters, where government scientists are hiding and running around in a panic.
    Scientist: MY WATERMELON!
  • Buford's thought process is fascinating:
    Baljeet: Our planets are going to collide! You know what that means, don't you?
    Buford: Yeah. It's like when you've got two sets of keys, and you leave one in the car.
    Baljeet: No, it's like... (beat as he processes what Buford said) NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    • Another sample shortly before:
      Buford: It looks like the planet's growing. Planets do that, right?
  • Isabella accidentally reaching for Ferb's hand rather than Phineas'.

    What'd I Miss? 
  • The debating club that Ferb went to, where everyone was easily persuaded by anything said.
    • It only gets funnier when Perry in pet mode persuades the kid.
  • Baljeet's Ferb impression.
  • This:
    Phineas (Narrating): I told her (Isabella) it was no problem.
    Phineas: No problem.
    Phineas (Narrating): It was then when I decided to stop narrating.
  • Linda actually praising Phineas and Ferb after hearing their story.
  • During their Squirrel Training, Isabella is trying to teach the squirrels how to do Puppy-Dog Eyes. She does it herself to demonstrate, and because her cuteness goes to her core, they give her their nuts mere seconds afterward. And her reaction is a combination of surprise and 'Oh, for me?'.
  • Everything involving Agent R
  • As Doofenshmirtz's hover craft spins out of control:
    Doof: "AAAAGGHH IT'S SOOOO BEAUTIFUUUULLLL!"
  • Buford saying goodbye to the squirrels "I'll think of you every time I get a rabies shot (Beat) which is often."

    Road to Danville 
  • Just about everything that Doofenshmirtz says.
    Doofenshmirtz: Why do we always see cow skulls in the desert? And why do you only see the skull? Did the body die somewhere else? It makes no sense!
  • We get two scenes of the kids at work on their project — quilting, which Buford finds thoroughly unimpressive. When we return to the backyard:
    Buford: (elated) That was amazing! I never thought quilting could be so much fun! Think of the possibilities! Needlepoint! Embroidery! Tapestry! I'm headin' down to the fabric store right now! (continuing as he walks away) Broquet! Taffeta! Saddle stitch!
    Ferb: Actually I didn't find it all that exciting.
    Phineas: Yeah, me either.
    Isabella: Never getting that day back.
    Baljeet: Whew, stinker-roo.

    Blackout! 
  • This episode has a good amount of jokes involving people's eyes in the dark and how you can see them.
    • The fact that Doofenshmirtz's eyes only looked sad because the darkness got rid of the fact that they are immensely oversized once you see them.
  • The jet pack squad that gives Doofenshmirtz random items in the dark.
  • Phineas thinking that Buford's watcha doin' was actually from Isabella.
  • Candace goes through a series of crazy contortions being pulled through Phineas and Ferb's invention in "What Is This Thing?". Then there's Phineas's reaction afterwards.
    Phineas: Wow, Candace, we never thought of riding it before!
  • Major Monogram's call ordering Perry to fix the blackout:
    Major Monogram: It's kind of scary in here, I'm all alone... (sound of something falling) C-Carl? Carl, is that you?

    This Is Your Backstory 
  • "Bewegen Sie nicht!"
  • When Doofenshmirtz recalls when he immigrated.
    Doofenshmirtz: I was heading to a golden land of opportunity. A land with a pioneering spirit which welcomed misfits like me. But, I ended up in America, instead!
  • The digital remix of the "I am a Superstar" viral video.
    Norm: "It's got 10 billion hits. And there's only 7 billion people on the planet.
  • The whole 'Failed Inators' montage.
  • Candace watching Phineas and Ferb play ping pong, thinking that will turn into one of their trademark projects. It does, but she leaves right before it happens.
