Episode Summary
It's July 11th and it's Candace's birthday. After a special breakfast, Dad makes his first appearence (voiced by Richard O'Brien) and announces they will be taking a special trip for Candace's birthday. She's initially excited, until she finds out they are going to Mt. Rushmore. She changes her mind when she discovers that Jeremy is working at the Mr. Slushy Burger inside the Gift Shop as part of an employee exchange program. Isabella and the rest of the Fireside Girls are there on a field trip, but it would appear they arranged their field trip to be close to Phineas. Meanwhile, Perry slinks away and transforms into Agent P. He goes on a long tunnel all the way back to his normal headquarters beneath Phineas and Ferb's house, where Major Monogram tells him that Dr. Doofenshmirtz's new hideout is located inside Lincoln's head at Mt. Rushmore. "I know, you were just there. Poor planning on our part actually", he says. Back at the monument, Phineas and Ferb begin to chip away at the monument, remaking the shape of the stone. Inside the Doctor's hideout, he has made a drillanator, with which he plans to drill to China and make a toll road. Forgetting that the center of the Earth is molten lava, Agent P ends up saving the Doctor from a fiery end. Phineas and Ferb successfully add a bust of Candace to Mt. Rushmore, but the lava that Agent P and the Doctor narrowly escaped bubbles to the surface through their escape tunnel and destroys Candace's new monument before anyone can see it.

The "too young" Line
Park Ranger: Ah...Excuse me, aren't you boys a little young to be restoring a national monument? Phineas: Yes, yes we are. Park Ranger: Well, it's a good to see young people taking an interest in our national heritage.

Phineas' Philosophical Line
(Upon seeing the grandeur of Mt. Rushmore) "Possibilities..."

Ferb's Philosophical Line
(In reference to their birthday present to Candace) "Well, it was definitely better then a gorilla in a cake."

Song Lyrics
She's Candace... like the Venus De Milo, except she's not armless and handless... She's got a big honkin' truckload of ship-launching qualities, and this... is the reason she bears no resemblance to a praying mantis...

Candace! A name with seven letters! Candace! Only wears designer sweaters! Candace! She's got an allergy to dairy! Candace! That chick's anything but ordinary!
