They decide to borrow some equipment from Phineas and Ferb to turn themselves into bees.

3	This episode [[SynchronousEpisodes runs in time]] with the previous episode; "[[Recap/PhineasAndFerbBeeDay Bee Day]]".
4	----
5	!! Tropes:
6	* AddedAlliterativeAppeal: "Ooh, how humiliating. Piloted off to the pokey by a pooch."
7	* AmbiguousSyntax:
8	-->'''Phineas:''' Hey Isabella, we're having iced tea. You want some, honey?\
9	'''Isabella:''' What'd you say?\
10	'''Phineas:''' I said, "We're having iced tea. You want some honey?"\
11	'''Isabella:''' Um... Sure.
12	* AutoTune: Michaela Zee has a... questionable singing voice, so Ginger's voice in "Waggle Dance" is given this treatment.
13	* BlandNameProduct: A FreezeFrameBonus shows that Agent Pinky's makeup case trap is from "Balencichihuahua", a parody of Balenciaga.
14	* BreakingTheFourthWall: Poofenplotz instructs Pinky the Chihuahua to "Pay attention as the camera slowly moves closer and we cross-dissolve to my thoughts."
15	* BrickJoke: Katie apparently ''loves'' the traditional "[[SoundtrackDissonance B♭ with an F♯ bass]]" that ends the Bee Day song.
16	* CallBack:
17	** Isabella is shown wearing the [[Recap/PhineasAndFerbTheBeak "A-Der!" accomplishment patch]].
18	** Isabella remembers Phineas's sorbet machine [[Recap/PhineasAndFerbFlyOnTheWall that could turn people into flies]]. She gets him to modify it to turn the Fireside Girls into bees.
19	** During Isabella's RousingSpeech while the girls are stuck in the vacuum, she mentions [[Recap/PhineasAndFerbFiresideGirlJamboree the time that they helped Candace get 50 patches in one day]] (though Holly mentions that it was technically supposed to be 49).
20	* ChekhovsClassroom: A variation. In a clip from early in the episode (which also appears in "Bee Day"), Baljeet is telling Ginger about how bees communicate through a dance known as the Waggle Dance. Ginger is able to teach it to the Fireside Girls when they have to figure out how to get the bees back to the hive.
21	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: When Gretchen suggests thinking like a bee, Katie decides to buzz and flap her arms like a bee's wings.
22	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Holly's reaction to Adyson's suggestion to get stung by radioactive bees and gain bee themed super powers.
23	--> '''Holly''': Um, we don't have access to radioactive bees.
24	--> '''Ginger''': Yeah, that's what's wrong with that plan.
25	* ADayInTheLimelight: As with the the first pair of SynchronousEpisodes, this is one for the Fireside Girls. The rest of the gang only shows up briefly near the beginning and the end.
26	* DistaffCounterpart: Carla, Admiral Acronym's assistant, is basically a female version of Carl. It's implied she and Carl are related, since Carla is said to come from "an entire family of unpaid interns".
27	* FaceShip: Poofenplotz's "Myself-icopter" is a helicopter designed to look like her face.
28	* FreezeFrameBonus: Poofenplotz's rejection letter from L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. is signed by Heinz Doofenshmirtz.
29	* GivenNameReveal: Poofenplotz's first name is revealed to be Esmeralda, as revealed when she reads her rejection letter from L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.
30	* HarmlessVillain: Poofenplotz is so harmless that she's even rejected from L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N., in a letter signed by Doofenshmirtz himself!
31	* IAmNotWeasel: Gretchen believes being sucked into a pharmacist's vacuum is the end.
32	* InsistentTerminology: It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it-moment, but this episode reveals that Poofenplotz makes "-ificators" instead of "-inators".
33	* OnceMoreWithClarity: In "Bee Day," Ginger seemed interested in Baljeet's facts about bees, but then disappeared when he had his back turned. Here, we see that this is because Isabella turned her into a bee.
34	* NoodleIncident: Isabella attempts to set up a {{flashback}} to the last time they tried to get their bee-keeping patch. It was apparently such a catastrophe that, as Gretchen reminds her, she decided to [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfthisAgain never flash back to it again]].
35	* {{Pheromones}}: The girls' bees have been drawn to Doofenshmirtz's place, as a result of his plan to douse himself in bee pheromones.
36	* PunBasedTitle: The title is a play on "B-story", which is what the Fireside Girls' plot was to the previous episode.
37	* RecordNeedleScratch: When Isabella tries to flashback to the aforementioned NoodleIncident, and again when she starts to flash-forward to the worst possible outcome after realizing they lost track of the bees.
38	* RousingSpeech: Isabella delivers one when they get stuck inside Doofenshmirtz's vacuum and the other girls think about giving up.
39	* ShakingTheRump: "Waggle Dance", a whole song dedicated to bee's communication by dancing.
40	* ShownTheirWork: Bees actually do communicate the way described in the "Waggle Dance".
41	* ShoutOut:
42	** Prof. Poofenplotz quotes Galadriel's "All shall love me and despair!" rant from ''Film/TheFellowshipOfTheRing''.
43	** Isabella rallies the Fireside Girls with a parody of Bluto's RousingSpeech from ''Film/AnimalHouse''.
44	* SureLetsGoWithThat: When the Fireside Bees are finally free from the pharmacist's power vacuum, Isabella assumes it was Adyson who rescued them.
45	-->'''Isabella''': Great job, Adyson!
46	-->'''Adyson''': ''(confused)'' Uh, thanks?
