Review: Phineas and Ferb ‘Where’s Pinky?’

Now I really want a breakfast burrito.

Spoilers Below

When Pinky goes missing, Phineas & Ferb create a machine that will amplify Buford’s senses to those of a dog’s. Pinky has actually been teamed up with Perry to thwart Doof’s latest plan which is to go down to City Hall and get the deed to the city using a helmet that turns him invisible. At first, the Agents are trapped by the constraints of long lines but eventually they catch up with Doof and smack the deed out of his hand. Eventually he finds it and takes the elevator upstairs to try and run away but Perry and Pinky catch up and enable the security to drop a gate stopping Doof from leaving.

We soon see Phineas, Ferb, and Kelly show up with Buford wearing the dog helmet and it works so well that the animal agents’ secret identities are put in jeopardy. Thankfully, Perry is able to grab Doof’s invisible helmet and use it which causes the kids to wonder if their dog helmet is broken. They leave, and Pinky takes out Doof causing the gate to lift allowing all of the tour goers the chance to escape. Pinky and Perry are then found by Candace and the kids bring their pets home.

Meanwhile, Candace tries to meet up with Jeremy for lunch at City Hall but gets stuck in a mandatory tour. The tour guide is a little nuts but he’s great at singing songs to the crowd so it can’t be all bad, right? The tour comes to a stop when the gate comes up letting everyone leave and just like that we get the first episode of Phineas and Ferb where Candace isn’t giving you a headache.

This was by far the better episode of the two tonight and it very well might have been because Wayne Brady helped write the best song this show has ever seen. He played a very charismatic and snarky tour guide ‘Don’ and he did a fantastic job in doing so. The Agents P and Doof were the main attraction in terms of a funny story and they delivered as Pinky smashing Doof over the head was pretty unexpected and very funny. That’s not to say that the dog mask from Phineas and Ferb wasn’t funny, but you can tell it was probably cut short because of time. Buford was actually pretty funny more so without the mask as he was asking for drum rolls, serving subpoenas, and wondering about breakfast burritos. Overall a very enjoyable episode…oh yea and who caught the Tron reference?
