Restoring because Vanessa previously attempted to "bust" her father in "I Scream, You Scream", and her doing it again here suggests that this was supposed to be a running theme throughout the series.

Added DiffLines:

* AbortedArc: After this episode, we never again see Vanessa attempt to bust her father for being evil. Instead, she gets some well-deserved CharacterDevelopment so that she is not simply "Goth Candace". This culminates in the SeriesFinale when [[spoiler:she calls out her father for his rather feeble attempts at being evil, suggesting that he is only doing it out of obligation to his HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood, not from his heart.]]

* VocalEvolution: Ferb's voice has gotten much deeper, sounding more like a mid-teenaged boy, due to Thomas Sangster experiencing puberty during production.

Since this episode's premise is based around swapping the roles, Vanessa wanting to "bust" her father isn't really intended to be part of a wider story arc

* RoleSwapPlot: The entire episode has swapped the episode's storyline:
** The episode begins at D.E.I., where Doofenshmirtz tells Norm he knows what they're gonna do today.
** Candace and Vanessa's clothes are swapped, indicating that each other assumes the role of whoever's wardrobe they're wearing.
** Perry is unable to visit Doofenshmirtz because of the Elizabethan collar preventing him from entering his lair, like he is absent from Phineas and Ferb during a regular episode.
** Norm says "What'cha dooooin'?" as Doofenshmirtz is working on his project.
** Instead of Candace trying to bust her brothers, Vanessa is trying to bust her dad. She even goes "But, but, but..." when the project disappears.
** Phineas and Ferb build the inator of the day, not Doofenshmirtz. Phineas also says "...the entire Tri-State Area!", right down to the same arm movements.
** Instead of Doof's inator destroying the Big Idea, it's the other way around. The Big Idea also has Doofenshmirtz's occasional self-destruct button.
** Phineas says "Bless you, Perry the Platypus!", in the manner of Doofenshmirtz's "Curse you, Perry the Platypus!".
** When Perry meets up with Doofenshmirtz, he says "Oh, there you are, Perry" like how Phineas does when Perry returns.

Candace and Vanessa's dry cleaning are switched, Doofenshmirtz tries to build his own private country while Perry is laid up from injuries, and Phineas and Ferb attempt to create a giant rainbow for Isabella. The accidental clothing swap symbolizes the fact that most of the episode reverses the usual tropes - this time around instead of Candace trying to bust Phineas and Ferb to Linda, Vanessa is trying to bust Doofenshmirtz and Norm to Charlene. Meanwhile, Phineas and Ferb build an -inator that inadvertently causes Doof's invention to disappear before Charlene can see it.
