The 'Brain' vs the Wiz Kids - Part 3
Part 3: Morgendorffer at 2308 Maple
Danville. Minnesota
Trent Lane’s 1973 Plymouth Satellite pulled up in front of a yellow house with a brown roof.
“Here we are Janie, 2308 Maple Street,” he said, turning to his sister in the passenger seat. Daria and Candace were in the back.
“Finally!” Candace said, getting out. As she did so, she glanced at her watch. 8:50. She had left an hour and a half before. ‘Time to get to the Morgendorffers, talk to Daria and her mom, to get to ‘Casa Lane’ as Jane called it, then to wake up Trent and then get back here,’ she thought.
“You want me to come in with you?” Trent asked as Jane and Daria got out of the car.
Jane thought for a bit. “Yes, if nothing else, we will have a lift back into Lawndale this evening,” she said.
“I am sure that the Flynn-Fletchers may allow you to sleep on the couch,” Daria said.
“Cool,” Trent said. He switched off the engine.
As Candace entered the lounge room, she could see Phineas and Ferb watching The Jetsons meet the Flintstones on the TV. Perry was sleeping on the lounge next to them. “Good, they haven’t started yet,” she said.
“So they get an outlandish idea and start building contraptions based on that idea?” Jane asked.
“Exactly,” Candace said.
“I think we need to wait and see what inspires them, then we can counter plan,” Daria said.
“You have a pet Platypus?” Jane asked, when she noticed Perry.
“Yes. He is exotic and therefore cool. His name is Perry,” Candace said.
“They don’t do much you know,” Jane said.
“I know,” Candace said.
The movie soon ended. “Mixing the Flintstones’ ‘Modern Stone Age’ and the Jetsons’ near future was a good idea,” Phineas said. He then realised that he had come up with an idea. “Ferb. I know what we are going to do today!”
“Ha! You are so busted!” Candace shouted.
“That is what you always say,” Phineas said.
“But today, I have help,” Candace said, and introduced Phineas and Ferb to Daria, Jane and Trent.
“Hey Phineas,” Trent said.
“Hi,” Phineas said. Ferb made a thumbs up signal.
“Doesn’t talk much, does he?” Daria said.
“Except when he needs to,” Phineas said. Trent noticed that the platypus had gone.
“Hey, where’s Perry?” he asked.
“He usually vanishes at this time of day,” Candace said.
Perry, in his OWCA agent mode, crept along the hallway. He came to a panel on the wall. He put his paw to the panel. His paw print was scanned and a part of the wall opened, revealing the entrance one of the tubes to his lair...
He jumped into it and soon arrived in his lair.
“Good Morning, Agent P,” Major Francis Monogram said from the main view screen in Perry’s lair. Then a picture of Sandi appeared on the screen along-side his face. “Doctor Doofenshmirtz has kidnapped this teenager. Her name is Alexandra Griffin, though apparently she prefers to be called ‘Sandi.’ All we have on her is that she is the ‘President’ of one of Lawndale High School’s extracurricular clubs. Get going and put a stop to his plan, whatever it is. We’re counting on you, Agent P!”
Perry saluted Major Monogram and turned to leave the lair.
Soon a hovercraft carrying Perry took off from the roof of the Flynn Fletcher house unnoticed by the newly arriving Isabella Garcia-Shapiro and Stacy Rowe.
Stacy Rowe thanked the Taxi driver whom had driven her into Danville as she paid her and then turned to the house. She saw a Hispanic pre-teen walking around the back.
“Hey, is this the Flynn Fletcher house?” she asked.
“Yes, you have the right place! You have come to see Phineas and Ferb?” the Hispanic pre-teen said.
“Yes, I am here to see Phineas and Ferb. I want to see if they can help in tracking down a friend of mine. She seems to have gone missing. I’m Stacy, Stacy Rowe.”
Stacy held out her hand. The young girl took it. “Isabella Garcia Shapiro, Fireside Girl,” she said.
“I wanted to join the Fireside Girls when I was younger, but my mother thought I wouldn’t be able to handle it,”
“Oh?” Isabella asked.
“Maybe she has a point. I can barely handle my extracurricular activities at the moment!” Stacy said, sighing.
“If you put your mind to it, you can do anything,” Isabella said.
“True,” Stacy admitted as they passed the Flynn-Fletchers garage door and came to the gate to the backyard.
Isabella opened the gate and said, “Hey, what’s ya doooin’?”
Phineas paused his carving of one of the many rocks that were strewn about the large yard and walked over. “Hi, Isabella, we are combining the ‘Modern Stone Age’ technology of the Flintstones with the future technology of The Jetsons,” he said.
“Cool!” Isabella said.
“Sounds cool, but would it work?” Stacy said.
“Of course it will work!” Phineas said.
“Phineas and Ferb have built a rollercoaster, a backyard beach, created S’winter, reunited Love Händel and raced chariots through downtown Danville,” Isabella said.
“In that case, I am sure that it will work,” Stacy said, remembering the news reports from earlier in the summer.
“So, you come to see our work?” Phineas asked.
“Not really. I came here for help in searching for a friend of mine who appears to be missing. A mutual friend said that her brainy sister is here,” Stacy said.
“You must mean Daria, she is inside with her friend and her friend’s brother,” Phineas said. “Although I think she has a crush on said brother,”
“I’ll go inside then,” Stacy said, she went towards the sliding door to the kitchen.
“I’ll help with the stone age tech,” Isabella said.
“Cool!” Phineas said.
