Line #8 Recap/PhineasAndFerbAreYouMyMummy


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).
4	----
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.
