Line #9 Recap/PhineasAndFerbBufordConfidential


1	Isabella helps the visiting French Fireside Girls (or ''Le Filles à côté du Feu'' as they are known in their country of origin) earn their North American Tracking patch, but Buford (who is disguising himself as the bear they are tracking) recognizes one of them, which throws off his game. Meanwhile, the boys create an epic sprinkling experience, and Doofenshmirtz tries to de-twist every pretzel in Danville.
2	----
3	!!Tropes
4	* TheCameo: Candace only appears in the beginning, since she decided to not go on the trip to the cabin this time and stays at home in the air-conditioned house.
5	* ADayInTheLimelight: For Buford.
6	* BorrowedCatchphrase:
7	-->'''Phineas:''' Do you want to help us make a super sprinkler?\
8	'''Baljeet:''' [[OnceAnEpisode Yes, yes I do!]]
9	* BuffySpeak: Monogram can't tell Agent P what Doof is up to because the screen, which is in a hollow log, is not big enough for the "little box thingy over [his] shoulder". (Even though he could have easily had Carl zoom the camera out.)
10	* ContinuityNod: This episode reveals why Buford is able to speak French fluently, as seen in "[[Recap/PhineasAndFerbSummerBelongsToYou Summer Belongs to You]]". During the flashback, an instrumental version of "City of Love" from the same episode is heard playing.
11	* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Baljeet's reaction to Brigitte resembles that of a jealous lover [[TheMissusAndTheEx meeting their partner's ex]].
12	* EveryoneHatesMimes: In the flashback of Buford in Paris, he is seen punching a mime when he first sees Brigitte.
13	* FormulaBreakingEpisode: Normally in the episodes that take place in Grandpa Clyde and Grandma Betty Jo's cabin, the Perry-Doof plot would take place in the same vicinity (either in his vacation condo or his cavernous lair). But here, the Doof-Perry plot takes back at Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc. in Danville.
14	* GoofySuit: Buford spends much of the episode wearing a bear costume.
15	* GratuitousFrench: When the French Fireside Girls (or ''Le Filles à côté du Feu''[[note]]Literally "The Girls Next to the Fire"[[/note]] as they are known in their country of origin) arrive at the cabin, Isabella greets them in basic French, and Brigitte, the leader, replies, ''"Oh, tu parles français. Et ça c'est inentendu! J'ai beacoup de choses à dire..."''[[note]]"Oh, you speak French. And that’s unexpected! I have a lot to say..."[[/note]], but Isabella admits that's all the French she knows, so Brigitte continues ''en Anglais''.
16	* ImplausibleDeniability: When Buford is busted by Brigitte, he tries to claim, "No! I'm not me! I'm somebody else!"
17	* MissingStepsPlan: Even Doof is not entirely sure how untwisting pretzels will help him take over the Tri-State Area. He even made a Venn diagram and the circles fail to interconnect.
18	* OverlyLongGag: Doofenshmirtz puts up an entire row of front doors, and Perry has to kick down every single one of them.
19	* PublicDomainSoundtrack: After Perry leaves his log to get his mission from Major Monogram, Monogram begins to sing "Home on the Range".
20	* ScatterbrainedSenior: Grandpa Clyde claims to have forgotten that he invited the French Fireside Girls (or ''Le Filles à côté du Feu'' as they are known in their country of origin) to their cabin, so Grandma Betty Jo attached a note to him. But later, it is revealed he was faking his senility because he likes Betty Jo's notes.
21	* ShoutOut:
22	-->'''Buford:''' [[Film/{{Casablanca}} Of all the clearings in all the woods in all of the world, she had to walk into mine.]]
23	** Doof making Perry kick down an insane amount of doors is most likely a nod to a similar gag WesternAnimation/BugsBunny did on WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam in ''WesternAnimation/SaharaHare''.
24	* StealthPun: This exchange.
25	-->'''Baljeet:''' Buford, what are you doing?\
26	'''Buford:''' The forest is filled with patch-crazed Europeans, and [[IsTheAnswerToThisQuestionYes I'm a bear in the woods!]] [[BringMyBrownPants What do you think I'm doing?]]\
27	'''Phineas:''' [[RhetoricalQuestionBlunder Ooh! Ooh! I know!]]
28	* SuicidalLemmings: When the song suggests Buford wear a lemmings suit, this trope is put into play when a bunch of Buford lemmings fall down a cliff.
29	* TheUnintelligible: When Phineas asks Ferb if he ordered a bear, Ferb simply says, "Mmph wmph wmph mmph wmph wmph," to which Phineas replies, "Oh, man, that would've been so much funnier without the snorkel!"
30	* VoodooShark: Buford's time in Paris with Brigitte explains why he was able to speak fluent French in "Summer Belongs to You". Buford then says, "It was easy, actually. A lot of the root words are the same in Latin."
