1 | An old movie theater, built with an ancient Egyptian theme, used to house a mummy exhibit. Thus ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' decide to go to the basement to search for their own mummy. Unfortunately for Candace, she gets chased by a runaway giant gumball machine while trying to stop her brothers, and starts a chain of events where she gets mistaken for a mummy. |

3 | Meanwhile, Perry must thwart Dr. Doofenshmirz from raising the sea level by 2%, thus flooding shorelines just enough to turn his home into beachfront property (as opposed to being a block from the beach). |

5 | !!Tropes |
6 | * AirVentEscape: Subverted. Candace fits in it fine, but quickly falls out back into the same problem. |
7 | * BoobyTrap: Phineas thinks the runaway gumball machine, and then a flood, are these. |
8 | * CoincidentalAccidentalDisguise: Candace ends up wrapped in toilet paper like a mummy, and can only moan incoherently thanks to having a mouth full of old bubblegum. |
9 | * DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The boys pose by a standee promoting Safari Man 2: Now in 2D. |
10 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: This is the only episode where Candace attempts to bust her brothers to her stepfather, while in future episodes, he willingly goes along with the boys' Big Ideas. |
11 | * FailedASpotCheck: Phineas and Ferb somehow don't notice the shape of Candace's head under the "mummy's" bandages, let alone some of her hair being exposed. |
12 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: To the next episode, "Flop Starz"; the Lindana song "I'm Lindana and I Wanna Have Fun" appears, as elevator music, no less. |
13 | * GoodTimesMontage: An ImagineSpot (complete with song) about how much fun P & F are going to have with a mummy. |
14 | * InJoke: The magic words used to bring the mummy to life in the movie are "Owa tagu siam". It appears to be a foreign language, but if you say it out loud, you are actually saying, "Oh, what a goose I am", which is often used as a children's prank, and was also used in an episode of ''Series/{{The Odd Couple|1970}}''. |
15 | * LiteralMinded: The explorer in the movie says "Well, beat me with a chicken" as an idiom, and the mummy grabs a rubber chicken and whacks away. |
16 | * LiteraryAllusionTitle: The title is a parody of the 1960 children's book ''Are You My Mother?'' by P.D. Eastman. |
17 | * OpeningShoutOut: The mummy in "My Undead Mummy and Me" resembles the one during the "Fighting a mummy" part of the theme song. |
18 | * OhWaitThisIsMyGroceryList: Major Monogram gives Agent P a list of strange items that Doofenshmirtz has bought, but accidentally swaps it with his grocery list. He then gives him the correct list. |
19 | * SeparatedByACommonLanguage: Upon hearing Phineas calling for "mummy", Lawrence thinks Phineas is referring to his mother rather than an actual mummy. |
20 | * ShoutOut: While Phineas and Ferb ride the prop mummy tomb down the flooded floor, a photo of them is taken similar to the ones taken on ''Ride/SplashMountain''. |
21 | * UncomfortableElevatorMoment: Between Candace and the runaway gumball machine. |
22 | * UncommonTime: The music that plays when Mummy Candace chases Phineas and Ferb, and later, vice versa, uses a mix of 7/8 and 15/8 time signatures. |
