Phineas and Ferb s01e42 Episode Script

Out of Toon (15 min)

Hey, Dad! What are you watching? Oh, it's my favorite kids show from when I were a lad.
Oh, they don't make them like this anymore.
(Song: Pinhead Pierre Theme) Pinhead Pierre Has the smallest head of which I'm aware It's about the size and shape of a pear Everywhere the children stare Life's cruel and unfair To Pinhead Pierre! No more pointin' and laughin', kids! Because now it's time for another adventure of Captain Implausible! When we last saw our hero, the Earth was being threatened by evil space aliens.
Bow-chicka-wow-wow.
Chicka-chicka-choo-wop.
Captain Implausible? That's right! He possesses virtually every super power there is.
Ooh.
Wasn't that great, kids? Ya can't beat Captain Implausible.
It's impossible! It's super freaky! Pinhead was the best! And I happen to own the single greatest collection of Pinhead Pierre paraphernalia in all the world.
Gosh.
Oh, yeah.
I'm not proud.
Time for the question of the day.
Thank you, Debbie.
And the question of the day is, "If you could have one superpower, what would it be?" You see, right there.
Modern cartoon shows never ask the really big questions, do they? That's it! We could have as many superpowers as we want if we were cartoons! Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today! Oh, well.
At least Perry will watch these with me.
Won't you, Perry? Perry? Morning, Agent P.
I apologize for using the emergency chute and, uh, for not telling you we had an emergency chute.
But, there was an emergency.
Shoot! Sorry.
What I'm about to say is highly classified, Agent P.
The last century, the forces of good and evil have been locked in a desperate race to harness and control the limitless power of dance.
Dance! How was that, sir? You came in a little late there, Carl.
Get back over there.
We'll try it again.
Blah, blah, blah, the power of dance.
Dance! Better? Early.
Anyhoo, much to our horror, it appears the side of evil has won.
Have you seen the latest issue of Evil Beat! magazine? Dr.
Doofenshmirtz has created a ray that causes people to dance uncontrollably.
It's up to you to stop him, Agent P.
But, be careful.
It's a known fact that no one, no one, has ever defeated evil while dancing.
Good luck, Agent P.
Excellent.
We'll be up and running in no time.
Hey, sis.
Hold it right there, busters.
Before I squeal on you rats, and you know I must, will you please tell me what's going on here? We're building an animation studio so we can make our very own cartoon show.
I thought cartoons were all made by computer.
Yeah, that's right.
This is just for show.
This is where the magic happens.
It's the PF-5000 Animatron.
All you do is tell the machine what you want.
I'd like my cartoon character to have the power to be everywhere at once.
I'll be called Multi-Man! And Ferb would have a utility belt and use lots of crazy gadgets.
He'll be called Um Ferb Guy.
Well, I would have super mind control and use telepathy and telekinesis to keep you super-dweebs under control with your lame-o superpowers.
We could call you Control Freak.
Come on, let's watch.
We start with a few crude drawings.
We compile those into a storyboard, and it all gets fed into the computer.
Then we add a little story and some pithy dialog.
The Executron analyzes it and makes a few notes.
Does not track.
Whose story arc is this anyway? This is not one of my favorites.
The Artbot addresses the notes.
No more notes.
No more notes.
A few changes are made, then it goes to timing.
The shreds get fed into here, and somehow it all comes together here in the Animatic.
Check it out.
We're super dudes.
You guys are super busted as soon as I tell Mom.
Hi, Phineas.
Whatcha do– Ugh! Whatcha doin'? Come into the Phineas and Ferb Studios, and we'll show you.
Hey, Isabella.
About that "Whatcha doin'?" back there– Up, up, up! We'll talk about it later.
Over here is where we add sound effects.
Did you know that for years, a balloon was used for the majority of sounds you hear in cartoons? Ferb will demonstrate.
Ferb? May we be in the show, too? Absolutely.
A very wise and small-headed man once asked, "If you could have any superpower, what would it be?" I would harness the power of rainbows, unicorns and sweetness to defend all that is good and just.
I'd become The Rainbow.
Wow, that's great.
What about you, Buford? It's an interesting question you pose, as it reveals not only one's impulses and desires, but one's deepest fears as well.
I'll go with Belchman.
Belchman! You know, fights crimes with different burps.
Cool.
How 'bout you, Baljeet? Isabella took mine.
Hmm.
School seems to be very important to you.
Books, being responsible and studious, getting good grades Oh! That's it! I will become Hanuman Man, a flying blue monkey that can grow as massive as he desires to crush all in his way! Fun choice.
That was perfect, guys.
Now let's record the voices for the scene where the heroes ask the villain for help.
Phineas, I– Hi, Candace.
You're just in time to help us record the voices.
There is no way on Earth I'd ever help you.
Cut and print.
That's why we call her "One-Take Flynn".
Best thing you can do You can do Yeah Better be ready Betty Get ready for the Bettys 'Cause The Bettys are ready for 'Cause the Bettys are ready for you! YOU! Something tells me that you might have seen this month's Evil Beat! magazine, eh? Wait, wait, wait.
Look.
Look, it's like there's two of me.
You see? Hmm? Huh? I suppose you're wondering how I harnessed the power of dance.
Well, to be honest, it was not so much on purpose.
What-What happened was my dryer broke, so I was trying to create a ray that would instantly dry my clothes.
But instead Well, look.
Still sopping wet, by the way.
Turns out anything I hit with the ray starts dancing.
For instance, a dryer repairman.
He-elp! I can't stop getting down! Ohh! Quiet, you.
Ah, sweet, horrible self-expression through movement! So I figured as long as I invented the thing, I might as well use it to whip up a little evil.
I set it up right over there next to the– Ow! Hey! You know, it cost me a lot to have that printed up! Oh! To add insult to injury, the platypus is leading.
Well, it's all up to the Animatron 5000 now.
Hiya, kids! You can stop laughing and pointing, because now it's time for– Whoops.
The new adventures of Team Improbable! Rainbow The Rainbow.
Hanuman Man Hanuman Man.
Multi-Man Multi-Man.
Ferb Guy Ferb Guy.
Belchman Belchman.
Versus the Control Freak! You're going down! Down, down, down! Oh, this is just out of control.
Mom! Mom! Hi, this is Mom.
Leave your psychotic rant about the boys when you hear the beep.
Uhh! Mom, come home quick! There's a giant mob, I'm a super fiend, I'm roasting them with laser vision, and– Hey.
What do you mean, "psychotic rant"? Hey, look, everybody.
It's the Control Freak.
Has everyone gone crazy?! There you are, you worms! Isn't the show great? Are you joking? How could you make me the evil villain? Now everybody hates me! Au contraire, big sister.
You're the star of the show.
I am? The crowd loves you.
But they're booing and hissing.
Of course they're booing and hissing.
You're the villain.
Right, Ferb? A hero is a hero, but everybody loves a great villain.
Really? Well, maybe I should go feel the love.
Love feels a lot like tomatoes.
Oh, you'll never get away with this! You are so busted! We made a killing! But we weren't charging admission.
Well, what are ya gonna do? Come on, everybody, let's take a bow.
They like me! They really like me! Feeling the love again.
You know, I'm getting pretty good at getting down.
What do you think, huh? After all, everyone knows dancing is evil! Perry the Platypus, what are you doing? Stop with the conga line.
We're doing the Macarena.
Perry the Platypus, where are you going? I don't believe it! You defeated evil while dancing! Curse you, Perry the Platypus.
Suddenly, I feel like dancing.
Well, I'm here.
Now where's this "giant, animation studio"? It got up, and it danced away.
It what? It got up, and it danced away.
It got up and danced away? See? It even sounds crazy when you say it.
I'll be in my room.
