A Real Boy

When Dr. Doofenshmirtz thinks Vanessa overhears him say he would rather have a son to do his evil bidding, he feels terrible so he zaps her with the "Forget-about-it-Inator." Meanwhile, Norm shares his feelings of wanting to be a real boy with Dr. Doofenshmirtz and decides to play up the "son" role. Back at the Flynn-Fletcher household, Candace has Stacy hypnotize her into ignoring the need to bust her brothers so that she can spend the entire afternoon relaxing with Jeremy, but unfortunately the hypnosis trigger words end up playing right into the boys' bouncy invention.
