- July 11, 2009
Phineas and Ferb: 104 Days of Summer! season 1 episode 36 is titled "Oh, There You Are Perry / Swiss Family Phineas." The episode is composed of two distinct stories. The first, "Oh, There You Are Perry," follows Phineas and Ferb's pet platypus, Perry, who is actually a secret agent. Perry goes missing, and Phineas and Ferb initiate a search mission, calling on all of their friends and their latest invention, a giant search engine. Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Perry's nemesis, is also on the hunt for the missing platypus, but his intentions may not be as pure as Phineas and Ferb's.
The second story, "Swiss Family Phineas," sends the boys adrift on a makeshift raft after their latest invention, a mechanical island, malfunctions and sends them out to sea. They go through a series of mishaps and adventures, fighting off sea monsters and managing to find supplies to survive, all while trying to figure out how to get back home. Meanwhile, their sister Candace is struggling to convince their parents that Phineas and Ferb are up to something, and their antics are no match for the serenity and peace of mind she seeks on her day off.
As usual, Phineas and Ferb's resourcefulness and ingenuity are on full display throughout both stories. In "Oh, There You Are Perry," they enlist the help of their robot battle suits, a 3D printer, and a fleet of drones to search for Perry. In "Swiss Family Phineas," the boys use their impressive survival skills to build a treehouse and invent a spear gun in order to fend off the sea monsters.
The two stories are woven together with catchy music and witty one-liners. The show often breaks the fourth wall, with characters addressing the audience directly and acknowledging the implausibility of some of their inventions. The humor is clever and appeals to both children and adults, with plenty of pop culture references and puns.
Overall, "Oh, There You Are Perry / Swiss Family Phineas" is a classic episode of Phineas and Ferb and showcases the creativity and humor that the show is known for. While each story stands on its own, the two together create a cohesive narrative that is sure to entertain viewers of all ages.
