Meapless in Seattle

A long time ago in a studio in Burbank, California. A ragtag group of animators made a fake trailer for a Meap sequel they never intended to make. Unfortunately, everyone wanted to see that episode so the animators were forced to write it and incorporate all these seemingly unrelated scenes. I guess the joke was on them, we now present... Meapless in Seattle.

Meap returns to save Phineas and Ferb from his nemesis Mitch, whose real mission is to take control of all of alien-kind, putting Meap's world in danger. The boys' 'cute-tracker' leads the gang to Seattle and an adventure to save the universe. Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz decides to revisit his former nemesis, Peter the Panda, but when Agent P shows up, Dr. Doofenshmirtz finds that he has some explaining to do.

Episode Summary
The Episode starts with scrolling text on a screen, similar to Star Wars, referencing how no one intended to do this episode but were requested by fans to put together clips that had nothing to do with one another in order to make an episode. The clips shown during the end credits of The Chronicles of Meap are shown during this transition. Afterward, the episode continues.

Candace is departing to go to the mall with Stacy, but decides to bust Phineas and Ferb by busting herself in a 'sacrificial bust' since she always gets busted when she has an idea. She goes to the back yard to find Phineas and Ferb fighting with giant pillows. Suddenly, Meap and Mitch then show up, Meap telling everyone to run when Isabella arrives and everyone escapes on Meap's ship. Meap explains that on his home planet, cuteness was valued above all and someone found a vein of pure cutonium, an element that is a physical form of cuteness, and used it to make himself the cutest thing in the universe, thus gaining power over all. But since absolute cuteness corrupts absolutely, he was drained of his cuteness and all the cutonium on the planet was put in a capsule and launched into space, unknowingly leading to Earth. Mitch followed it to Earth and is now in search of it.

Perry, now in his lair is told by Major Monogram to go to Seattle and find Doofenshmirtz and that the screen is now indestructible. Carl then does Major Monograms arms because his back goes out. Perry is instructed to throw the chair at the screen, breaking the chair. Doofenshmirtz found it while confronting Perry the Platypus and Peter the Panda outside a coffee shop in Seattle and drank it, turning into a two foot tall embodiment of cuteness. Mitch then kidnaps him and plans to extract the cuteness.

Meap contacts his planet in order to warn them of the situation, then breaks aboard Mitch's ship. Everyone arms themselves with armor and weapons (mirrors) and ventures in. Doofenshmirtz, now drained of his cuteness escaped his captor with the aid of Perry and Peter and meets Balloony, who is now is an armored suit and has energy axes that he uses to fend away Doofenshmirtz and Mitch's robots.

The Meap army then attempt to break into Mitch's ship (now on their planet) while Mitch reveals himself to be as small as Meap, wearing a suit that can act on its own and shoots himself with a beam of cutonium, turning hum into a completely different being of cuteness, mesmerizing Phineas. The Meap army then breaks in and is stunned by Mitch's looks. The robots are now swarming Doofenshmirtz, but Balloony, remembering his time with Doofenshmirtz, protect him and destroys the robots, but gets popped in the process. Doofenshmirtz collects the now deflated body of his former friend and attempts to keep him alive, failing to do so.

Meap, unaffected by Mitch's looks, fires a rainbow bean at his, but Mitch fires his own beam, and defeats Meap with ease. Isabella manages to out-cute Mitch and Mitch reverts to his natural state, now in the custody of the Meaps. Candace also gets busted for not taking out the trash. Doofenshmirtz is forced to go home, now depressed. However, the episode ends with Perry returning to Doofenshmirtz, giving him Balloony with a patched hole. The two are seen doing various amusement activities together.
