“Wow! Summer sounds like a blast!” Phineas-2 said.

“That's just the tip of the iceberg!” Phineas said. “Like this summer for instance; we built a roller coaster, we became one-hit wonders, we traveled through time...”

Suddenly Perry heard a strangely familiar jingle from the TV.

~Doofenshmirtz Evil News Update!~

Perry walks over to it and sees Doofenshmirtz-2 on the TV.

“This is a message for other dimension Perry the Platypus. If you turn yourself in, I promise not to hurt your little friends.” Perry watched in distress as the boys’ image is shown on T.V. “If you don't, all bets are off.”

Perry glances a look at the boys one last time. Phineas was still talking to their counterpart. Perry gets a determined look on his face, and he turns to go, not noticing that Phineas sees him sneaking off.

“He’s going to give himself up?” Phineas said in disbelief. “How is that going to help!”

“He must be basing on what my dad would do. Evil or not, dad doesn’t back down from his given word.” Vanessa reasoned.

Perry hides behind a curtain and puts on his fedora, ready to go when Phineas’s voice stops him. “You are kidding me! You're actually sneaking away again? So nothing's changed.” Ferb walks up next to Phineas and crosses his arms.

“Did it ever occur to you that we could help you? That we could've made a great team? But I guess you can't have teamwork without trust.” Perry looks down, ashamed, then back up at Phineas, with his head down. You don't have to sneak away anymore. We know your secret. You can just go.”

“Oh no. This is too sad for me.” Milly said, looking away. Everyone was looking remorsefully at the scene between the boys and their beloved pet.

Perry's tail droops as Phineas points towards the door, and he walks off sadly.

I walk away

From you, my friend

I hope that this

Is not the end

Of all the times we figured out

How to seize the day

And I walk away

Perry sadly walks off down the road as it begins to rain.

“Ferb, we’re making him a translator.” Phineas said determinedly. “No more misunderstandings.”

Ferb nodded, his face just as determined as Phineas’s.

“You know, I used to think you couldn't spell "platypus" without "us".” Phineas said as he walks back inside.

“Well, you can, but it would just be "Platyp".”

“Really Ferb?” Isabella deadpanned. Ferb just shrugged.

“Well, I guess if you guys can't help us fix the remote, we could check with Isabella.” Phineas said, back inside with their counterparts.

“Who's Isabella?” Phineas-2 asked.

“Wait what!” Isabella exclaimed.

“Wow, another twist!”  Gretchen said.
