"Aren't you a little young to be building something for a girl?" the delivery guy said upon handing Phineas the forms.
"Eh... what?" Phineas said.
"Oh you know what I'm talking about."
"Eh... I guess I am?" Phineas signed the forms and handed them back.
"... Well ok then" the delivery guy said and he left the clueless boy again.
"What was that all about?" Phineas thought to himself but he just shrugged it off and went back to the just delivered supplies. One by one he placed the boxes into the elevator when Candace and Jeremy walked up to the redhead holding each others hands.
"Oh, Hey again there Candace. Your friends are already up there to help us. Do you want to as well?" Phineas spoke.
"Well..." Candace began reluctantly but Jeremy finished her sentence "Of course we do" and he winked at Candace. Candace blushed and the only thing that kept her from kissing him again was the fact that her brother was watching.
"Ok cool! Would you grab a few these boxes then? We need all of them up there." Phineas said.
"Oh ok then Phineas, but remind me to try extra hard to bust you tomorrow! Today's an exception because... I kinda like this project." Candace quickly refrained from saying "because you're making it for Isabella."
"Eh... touché?" Phineas said, shrugging it off once again and carried a few more boxes towards the elevator. Candace and Jeremy then began collecting the boxes as well. Jeremy easily carried 3 boxes while Candace had trouble to even carry one box.
"Phineas! What is IN these boxes." Candace said, annoyed.
"Just open one and see!" Phineas said. Candace did so and what she saw gave her a scare.
"You're not seriously using THIS are you?" Candace said.
"Well why not! I've always liked it and I hope Isabella will too!" Phineas said with his cheerful voice.
"Oh god, I don't have that much patience" Candace thought to herself but since her best friends and boyfriend were in plus the fact that her little brother was doing it for his possible future wife, Candace just had to do it. She just pushed the boxes forward instead of lifting them.
Phineas then saw the time. The fireside girls can't keep Isabella busy for too long so it was about time to give Isabella another reason to stay away.
"Wow, this has been a well-deserved party! But I have to return to Phineas now. He might already be done with his project and I still don't even know what it is he's doing!" Isabella said, after which she muttered "But someone else does" revering to Jenny saying her line.
"Don't worry, Isabella. I'm sure he would understand that you were with us. Especially after receiving this honor!" Holly said.
"But I..." Isabella sighed "I guess he wouldn't"
Just then, Isabella's phone went off. It was Phineas.
"OH GOD it's him!" Isabella quickly answered. "Hello Phineas, what'cha doin'?" Isabella mentally screamed "YES"
"Hi there Isabella, I'm busy with a project but I still need something to get it done" Phineas said.
"Oh?" Isabella said. Phineas wasn't done with his project yet. Otherwise he wouldn't still be needing something. Still, he could have shown at least a little more enthusiasm for finally talking to her.
"Yes. I need a crystal! But not just any crystal, it has to have at least 200 sides. I wonder if you would be able to get that for me." Phineas said.
Isabella thought about it and then said "I think I know where to find one of those, but what do you need it for?"
"You'll see!"
"Ok then, I'll see you later in the afternoon then."
"I'll be looking forward to it!" Phineas said and he hung up the phone.
"Phineas wants us to go look for something again." Isabella sighed in awe. "Just like that time with the maraca nut sap."
"Well what is it?" Adyson asked.
"A crystal with at least 200 sides." Isabella answered.
"Hmm, that could be a problem. We'll have to count all those sides then." Milly said, thinking of all the counting ahead.
"Oh that wouldn't be a problem. We'll just have to shine a flashlight at one side and we can count the number of reflections we see on the wall then." Gretchen said.
"Yes, what she said." Isabella said.
"Well ok then, but where can we find such a crystal? You said you knew of a place." Katie said.
"Yes, follow me girls." Isabella said and they left the clubhouse again to go look for the 200-sided crystal. Still, she couldn't shake the thought that Phineas wasn't missing her at all...
"I will now test the marble-inator on this simple marble, Perry the platypus. I just have to put it in here. It will then be shot onto the street TEN TIMES ITS SIZE." Doofenschmirtz said and he put the marble into the machine. As the beam was charging, Perry was thinking of a way to escape. He thought it might be possible to knock the can of marbles over. That way, Doofenschmirtz might slip. He began pushing to the side of the snow-globe on which the can was. In the meantime, the marble in the machine was shot away at full speed, followed by a large beam which made the marble grew. It came on the street with massive force and started rolling through the street.
"YES, exactly as planned! It works! I'm an evil GENIOUS! Now, I will just have to get the rest and make the entire tri-state area my very own marble-playground!" Doofenschmirtz said and started walking towards where the can of marbles should be. Instead, he saw that the can was gone.
"WHAT, what the... where did it goOOAAAAH" Doofenschmirtz tripped over a couple of marbles, slipped his way over to Perry's snow-globe and fell on it, shattering the glass. Perry jumped out and stood ready for a fight with his nemesis.
"Oh no, my marbles! Ugh, this really stinks, why would you create something over which you can slip very easily? No wonder my parents wouldn't let me have marbles... wait, I should be loving marbles to carry on with this plan!" he stood up again. "That was the last time you pulled a stunt on me like that, Perry the platypus!" he then threw a couple of marbles at Perry.
Perry easily dodged them and threw some himself, hitting Doofenschmirtz in the face with one.
"OW, oh how come I always end up getting hurt!" he growled "I'll get you!" he then picked up a few more marbles and threw them at random at Perry again. Perry shot one back at Doofschmirtz with his tail and dodged the others. Doofenschmirtz was hit in the face again.
"Grrrr!" Doofenschmirtz growled and threw some more marbles.
"Dad, I just came by to pi- OW" Vanessa just entered the room as she was hit by a marble in her leg.
"Oh... I'm sorry Vanessa! I was just trying to hit Perry the platypus and he dodged and... it's his fault!" Doofenschmirtz pointed at Perry.
"Right... whatever." Vanessa said. "Just give me my purse, I accidentally left it here last week."
"Oh... eh do you have a moment? Entering the room is kind of hard at the moment" Doofenschmirtz said, referring to the marbles on the ground. "Perry the platypus, would you mind getting these marbles back in the can. You can throw them all over the ground again when Vanessa is gone again but I don't want her to break an arm when she gets her bag."
Perry rolled his eyes and just helped his nemesis with picking up the marbles that were in the way.
Vanessa just face-palmed upon seeing this.
