And of course we'll all stay up til midnight to watch the New Years Ball Drop.

— Vivian Garcia-Shapiro

Phineas and Ferb plan their own New Year's Eve ball drop, complete with a customized multi-dimensional ball, while Candace makes it her resolution to refrain from busting her brothers before the clock hits midnight. Meanwhile, Doofenshmirtz uses a Resolution-Changer-inator in his tie as he continues the never-ending attempts to take over the Tri-State Area.

Doof mocking Perry
Look at you! You're just a bottom!


This article, transcript, section, or credits page is incomplete and needs to be completed. Any user is obliged to do so.


It's New Year's Eve, and Linda has dropped Phineas and Ferb off with the Garcia-Shapiros so Vivian can take care of them. Candace, who is in the car, is complaining about not being late for her first grown up party. After the car drives away, Isabella can't wait to have fun, and Vivian complements on staying up late to watch the New Year's Eve ball drop. That is the moment when Buford elbows a sleeping Baljeet. Isabella reminds Phineas that another tradition is kissing someone special at midnight and hopes she can be kissed, but Phineas doesn't get the hint and says they're gonna make a New Year's ball and drop it from outer space. Vivian, oblivious, says he has an active imagination. Isabella, disappointed, adds it's not active enough. Vivian goes back inside to make some hot chocolate and wonders where Perry went.

Meanwhile, Perry's lair has frozen due to a broken heating system and Monogram and Carl are in Aruba to escape the climate. He briefs to Perry that Doofenshmirtz is doing something at City Hall and has to put a stop to whatever it is.

Running Gags

The "Too Young" Line

None.

Ferb's Line

Phineas: Is this your doing, bro?

Ferb: "Auld Lang Syne" literally means "old long ago," but I'd rather think of New Year's as an unspoiled universe.

Whatcha doin'?

None.

I know what we're going to do today!

Isabella: And, of course, there's the other tradition of kissing someone special at midnight.
Phineas: Well then, I know what we're going to do tonight.
Isabella: Really?
Phineas: Yeah! We're gonna make our own New Year's ball and drop it from outer space!

Where's Perry?

Vivian: I'm going to make some hot chocolate. You kids come in when you want to warm up. Hey, where's your platypus?

Perry's entrance to his lair

Perry lifts a patch of ice in the backyard and drops down into his lair.

Memorable Quotes

Isabella: And, of course, there's the other tradition of kissing someone special at midnight.
Phineas: Well then, I know what we're going to do tonight.
Isabella: Really?
Phineas: Yeah! We're gonna make our own New Year's ball and drop it from outer space!
Vivian: Your mother is right, Phineas. You have such an active imagination!
Isabella: (flatly) Not active enough.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz: How do I look?
Norm: Like a pharmacist in a bowtie.
Candace: (standing with Jeremy on a balcony, watching the fireworks) You know, I don't know if I'm gonna be able to keep this resolution.


Jeremy: That's okay. I like you just the way you are. Happy New Year, Candace.
Candace: Happy New Year, Jeremy.

(they kiss; fireworks go off reading "HAPPY NEW YEAR")
