Phineas and Ferb Wiki

The Farmer and his wife are a couple in Danville whose lives are constantly yet unintentionally affected by the activities of Phineas, Ferb, and/or Dr. Doofenshmirtz.

Biography[]

The Farmer and his wife are often seen starting all sorts of new businesses, but he always being unprepared and never remembers to stock his business with the requisite merchandise. His Wife then begins nagging him on his poor business tactics, usually claiming that the item in question "isn't going to just fall out of the sky". At that instant, the item suddenly lands near or on her (usually as a result of Phineas, Ferb, and/or Doofenshmirtz's unintentional activities).

They appear twice in this episode. First, the Wife nags the Farmer that he spent all their life savings to make a bunny farm, but failed to buy a single bunny. After claiming that bunnies aren't going to just fall from the sky, a whole hot air balloon full of bunnies suddenly falls on top of her. The Farmer claims that she owes him an apology, to which she replies "Touché".

Later, the Wife is scolding him for selling their bunny farm, buying a van rental place and not buying a single van. Suddenly, a van being carried by a tornado (created by Doofenshmirtz) begins falling towards her. The wife snaps, "Not one word" before the scene blacks out. A loud crash is then heard.

Put That Putter Away[]

Chastizing the miniature golf course owner.

The miniature golf course's windmill slows down and the course starts to descend where below it, the Wife is yelling at the owner of Little Duffer's about how he didn't put aside a portion of his profits over the years with the intent to upgrade his course with it. She then states, "What, did you think a shiny new miniature golf course would just fall out of the sky?" Then Phineas and Ferb's course fell out of the sky exactly on top of Little Duffer's, to which he responds, "You'd be surprised what falls out of the sky in Danville."

This is the only time that she appears with someone other than her husband.

Suddenly Suzy[]

The Wife chastises the Farmer for walking away from his miniature golf franchise (as seen in "Put That Putter Away") and opening a mountain spring water bottling plant without any water to bottle, telling him, "What, did you expect a mountain spring to just fall out of the sky?" When Phineas and Ferb's Niagara Falls replica suddenly falls into the plant, the Farmer simply whimpers, "You never believed in me."

Hip Hip Parade[]

The Farmer has begun a monkey basketball team, but has only bought one monkey, which the Wife is currently berating him on. The monkey suddenly gets zapped by a stray shot from Doofenshmirtz's Duplic-8-Inator, creating eight monkeys from the one. Covered in the chimps, the Wife gripes, "Great, now three of them are going to have to sit on the bench."

After the wife's chasticizing and a battery cart crashes by the car, she looks to the sky and exclaims, "Well, what did you expect? That a million dollars was just going to fall out of the sky?" The farmer retorts, "It doesn't work that way." She exclaims, "Well, how does it work then?!" They are also seen in Carpe Diem at the end.

Phineas and Ferb the Movie: Candace Against the Universe[]

The couple make a cameo. They are redesigned, with both wearing different colored outfits – the wife now a redhead and the farmer now going grey – even though the film is set in the same summer as the original series.

In the film, the farmer has started a dragon-themed amusement park, but, as usual, forgot to get anything resembling a dragon. His wife also berates him for keeping a chicken coop. Thanks to Doof's Chicken-Replace-inator, the chicken is replaced by an alien dragon-like creature from Feebla-Oot. The farmer remarks to his wife, "My support group says you're keeping me down."

Hamster & Gretel[]

The couple makes a few appearances in Hamster & Gretel, a show by Dan Povenmire that takes place in the same universe as Phineas and Ferb. Their appearance has changed yet again, with the farmer having gray hair and mustache, black-framed glasses, a light blue shirt, and blue overalls, and the wife having brown hair, a white apron, and a green dress and headband.

Their first appearance in Hamster & Gretel is in "Grounded". As Hamster notes an enormous pie tin blown in the wind as another false sighting if a U.F.O, the scene cuts to the farmer, hammering down some stakes in the ground to ensure that the "State's Largest Pie Tin" stays firmly in place, clearly irritated that the pie tin keeps getting carried away by the wind, while his wife looks concerned at him in the background. The end of the episode reveals that the wind took away the pie tin yet again.

They next appear at the end of "A Mammoth Problem". The wife berates the farmer for building a mammoth theme park without having anything that looks like a mammoth, only for Gretel to drop off a mammoth to them.

More Than an Intern[]

The wife is mad that her husband bought a giant fish tank but no fish. After a few seconds, nothing happens and she goes to bed. At the end of the episode, a giant lacrosse stick throws some fish into the tank. The farmer tries to get his wife out to see it, but she says she'll see it in the morning.
