** There's also Rodney's willingness to throw the Earth into a new Ice Age is kinda disturbing, even going so far to destroy the reverse switch and self-destruct button on his latest machine to ensure that he would accomplish that, which would endanger the entire world population. Fortunately, Doofenshmirtz's HeelFaceTurn was enough to prevent it from happening as he holds sheer disgust over Rodney's plot; even Perry too shares Doof's feelings over the event, as evidenced when [[EnemyMine he personally helped Doof in taking down the machine to save the Earth and foil Rodney for good]].

** The first 'story', following Candace is probably the scariest one. It involves Candace accidentally turning Ducky Momo (as in, [[KillerTeddyBear her doll]]) evil. While that may not sound frightening, we're treated to a [[SarcasmMode lovely]] scene where it gets stuck in a door Candace is obliviously trying to close, and it ends up loosing one of it's eyes, which is still barely holding on by a string, and having a seam ripping open, with stuffing falling out. And then, as the song begins, it simply... draws everything back to it's body. Slowly. It's creepier than it sounds, especially if you listen closely as it happens. Also Ducky Momo spinning it's [[Film/TheExorcist head around]] didn't help things.

* When Perry kicks Doofenshmirtz out of his chair, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero this gives him one more bad memory that helps power the Backstory-inator!]]Backstory-inator!]] What follows is a very long cackle from Doof that's genuinely menacing and ominous, fully confident that he's won.



*** And let's not forget the end. Ducky Momo isn't evil, he just wanted a hug. Why? Because Candace didn't expose it to moonlight, which was the key factor for it being evil. Then the moon comes out and shines on [[KillerTeddyBear Mr. Miggins]] who grows ''claws and teeth'' and sports a horrible expression and ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou lunging at the screen]]'' to the sound of Candace screaming. Cue commercial break, then a new, unrelated segment all together.
** Finally, there's the third 'story', involving Perry having grape juice spilled on him (via Buford) which creates an evil, purple clone. The clone, after scarring the kids, pours more juice onto itself to create more clones, and then they spread out throughout Danville causing havoc and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking playing tennis]]. In the end, the kids, after trying and failing to wipe out the at least several hundred clones, they end up in a grape juice box factory and end up ''[[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath being ripped to shreds]]'', thankfully offscreen. Of course, it was all just a story and the ending got changed to "the Hollywood ending", but that arguably makes it worse... ''[[CheerfulChild Phineas]]'' wanted the story to end that way.
