It's a unique and logic-defying amalgam of winter and summer.

— Ferb Fletcher

Phineas and Ferb use a snow-cone machine to create S'Winter, an amalgam of winter and summer. Meanwhile, Candace follows Jeremy around after noticing him hanging out with what looks like a girl. Elsewhere, Dr. Doofenshmirtz plans to melt all the chocolate in the Tri-State Area with his Melt-inator 65000.

Episode Summary[]

Phineas and Ferb think that it's too hot to think of any ideas of what to do today. Lawrence comes over with a snow cone machine and leaves to go to an antique show. Phineas realizes that snow in July would be pretty cool, which gives him an idea. He then offers a snow cone to a questioning Candace, who turns it down because she sees it as nothing more than crushed ice covered with blue carbs. Ferb begins to crank the snow cone machine, causing snow to overflow, while Phineas questions the whereabouts of Perry.

Meanwhile, Perry arrives in his lair. Major Monogram briefs Perry on his mission, explaining that Doofenshmirtz has bought up 18,000 laser pointers, arousing suspicion from the agency. Perry jots down stuff on his notepad, assumedly taking notes, but actually just drawing a mediocre doodle of Monogram. Perry races over to Doofenshmirtz's lair.

Isabella arrives with the Fireside Girls, who offer to help them make S'Winter. Together, they create a mountain of snow in their backyard. Candace is busy chatting to a friend on the phone about how cheerleaders are so overrated, and then notices the lack of light. She struggles to open her window, and then succeeds, but also lets quite a lot of snow into her room.

She then climbs out of her window and sees the mountain. Jeremy sees Candace and offers her a ride on the ski lift, but she turns him down since she is afraid of heights. He then proceeds to hang out with a strange woman, Dee Dee, which causes Candace to question who Dee Dee is (which shows that the friend she was chatting with was Stacy), and she finds out Dee Dee is a Swedish exchange student.

Candace and Vanessa talking on ski lift

"You should try spending an hour with my dad sometime."

Candace gets jealous and runs up the mountain and trying to make her way on the ski lift. She succeeds and meets Vanessa Doofenshmirtz. She notices how high she was and ties a knot in her safety belt, but as soon as she does so, Jeremy and Dee Dee jump off, with Candace stuck on the ski lift, not being able to get off in time due to her apparently tight knot.

Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz is waiting for Perry to walk through the front door, where Perry would be crushed by an overhead piano. His plan is foiled by his maid, Nancy, leaving the back door unlocked. He makes a note to fire her tomorrow as his evil deed, and proceeds to trap Perry in quick hardening chocolate. He starts to talk about how the Melt-inator 6-5000 came to be, and what it does-Melt chocolate for him to use to create the most irresistible confection in the Tri-State Area. He then looks over at Perry, who is still frozen. Doofenshmirtz is now a bit agitated and repeats the whole story once more.

Candace eventually gets off at the bottom and decides to walk all the way up to the top. She attempts to do so, but is quickly buried under snow, and is run over by a few kids in a toboggan. This gives her an idea, and she hires Buford to pull her in a toboggan up the mountain to meet Jeremy.

When Doofenshmirtz finishes once again, he notices that Perry is still quiet. He sighs in annoyance and starts to count down slowly, and stops to talk about how in some countries it's considered rude not to participate, but is kicked to the ground before he could finish. He realizes that Perry has eaten his way out of the chocolate shell. Doofenshmirtz tries to hurry and aim the Melt-inator 65000. Perry pulls a lever and causes Doofenshmirtz to go flying into him. It then aimed at Linda's car and fires, melting her tires. Luckily enough, they just so happened to have bought four spare tires at the antique convention.

Clinging to the bottom of the snowboard

Candace arrives at the top of the mountain and sees Jeremy talking to Dee Dee. She calls out Jeremy's name, but slips on the ice rink she was foolishly running across, causing her to fall off the mountain of snow and sending her into the water in an area where people are ice-fishing. Someone fishes her out, but is commanded to throw her back, as she is too scrawny. The fisherman instead gives her a push over to where she sees Jeremy compliment Dee Dee, saying Dee Dee was a good skier which makes Candace heat up with rage and melt the ice. She gets caught on Phineas and Ferb's snowboard and goes through a series of obstacles which mysteriously avoid the boys, but hit Candace instead. Phineas comments about why he or Ferb didn't get hit, saying it's weird.

Snowboard Champions

Phineas, Ferb, and Candace take First Place.

They step over a sled containing four people all coincidentally named 'Bob', with Phineas commenting on how it just so happened to be a bobsled. They then fly into the air where the boys have lost sight of Candace, who is clinging to the bottom of the snowboard. They bounce on top of a hot-air balloon, sending them high enough to go through a cloud and make a cloud angel. They fall back and bounce off the same balloon which flings them to the side. They then take their rightful place on the first place podium, winning the snowboarding competition. Jeremy compliments Candace and introduces her to Dee Dee, who turns out to be a boy, Derek Dukensson, or D.D., for short. After this, she hears Mom's car, making her think this will be the best day ever, and runs off.

Elsewhere, Doofenshmirtz has trapped Perry again, this time with sticky string to subdue him. Doofenshmirtz plugs in the Melt-inator 6-5000 ("I always leave it till the last second because it takes a lot of power"), and ends up using all the power in the Tri-State Area. This starts off a chain reaction that stops the air-conditioners and fans that kept the snow cold and frozen, which melts the snow mountain, causing everything to look normal. Everyone groans in frustration, and Isabella tells everyone that her mom has got hot chocolate, which has everyone cheering and running away.

Candace tries to rush her parents to the backyard, who are both trying to carry a heavy Austrian-style cuckoo clock into the house. They finally make it outside to see the snow-cone machine, the boys, and small little bits of snow in random spots of the backyard. Phineas offers his sister a snow cone once more. She grabs the snow-cone and plops her face into it. Perry comes up to the group, to which Phineas replies, "Oh, there you are, Perry", ending the episode.

Production Information[]

  • Episode description from the original Phineas and Ferb-ruary 2008 press release:[1]
In "S'Winter," airing Saturday, Ferb-ruary 9, the boys' dad, Lawrence, shows them how to make snow cones which results in their big idea: make winter in the middle of summer. Soon their backyard is full of snow and everyone in the neighborhood is skiing, snowboarding or sledding. Even though Candace is afraid of heights, she braves the slopes in order to steal Jeremy's attention away from a Swedish exchange student. Meanwhile Dr. Doofenshmirtz uses the Melt-i-nator device to melt all the chocolate in the Tri-State area so it will drain into his underground candy factory, allowing him to corner the chocolate market and create chocolates in his own image.
  • This episode was paired with "Phineas and Ferb Christmas Vacation!" when it aired on ABC Family and Disney Channel. It was also paired with "Toy to the World" sometimes as well. Starting in December 2011, this episode is sometimes aired with "A Phineas and Ferb Family Christmas", mainly because the latter does not have another episode produced to air with it.
    • This episode appears twice on Disney+, with "The Magnificent Few" and "A Phineas and Ferb Family Christmas".
  • This episode was broadcasted by itself three times on December 10, 19, and 23, 2020 as part of Disney XD's December broadcasting lineup.

ERROR Buford has no skull logo

Buford without his skull-logo and his tooth.

  • Doofenshmirtz fires the Meltinator at the world's largest chocolate bar, but it isn't plugged in, so it shouldn't have worked.
  • When Candace gets hit by the tree going down the mountain, it shows her inside the tree, but two seconds later, the tree is gone.
  • When D.D. introduces himself to Candace, there are two errors:
    • For two frames her head is copypasted behind her.
    • In one frame, there is an outline error on her chin (which looks like a beauty mark).
  • When Candace is trying to open her bedroom window, there is one window in the middle of the wall, but when she sticks her head out, there is a second window right beside the one she is halfway out of.
Walkway

The walkway only connects to the walls.

  • When Candace tries to get her parents to go to the backyard, the front door path is replaced with the grass, and the walkway is only connected to the walls.
  • The numerals on the face of the cuckoo clock are printed the wrong way.
  • When the camera zooms in on Candace when she realizes S'Winter is gone, Linda is not there.
  • The large doorway to the backyard is missing when Candace is trying to show S'Winter, and the small door goes to the living room instead of the kitchen.
  • When Isabella, Adyson, and Gretchen are singing, Adyson's outline disappears when they pop up behind Isabella, and her headband repeatedly changes colors from red to brown, and back to red.
  • The upper part of Candace's socks are missing when she looks down at her feet in the lift.
  • Before Phineas asks "Uh... Have you seen Candace?", her hands should have already been shown on the board.
