Phineas and Ferb Season 2 Episode 55

This episode shows that Stacy has many cousins in Tokyo, Japan.

When in Japan, Phineas, Ferb and the gang start to do the Caramelldansen, a looping flash animation showing anime characters Mai and Mii from the Japanese visual novel Popotan.

While on Mount Everest, Vanessa asks Candace what Ferb is short for and Candace says "I have no idea". This refers to the episode Vanessassary Roughness, where Ferb had mentioned to Vanessa his name was short for something, but was interrupted.

We learn Ferb can speak Japanese and Buford can speak French.

The slingshot the kids use to get back to the Tri-State area is a likely reference to a previous short, Swiss Family Phineas, where Candace suggests, "Why don't you build a giant slingshot and fling us back to the mainland?" and Phineas replies, "Not bad. Mind if we use that someday?"

We finally see Phineas do two things he doesn't normally do; get angry at someone, and go crazy on the deserted island.

It's established that Buford stole everyone's bikes. If you look closely, you can see some missing bike posters throughout the episode. A "Missing Bike - Call Rob" sign appears in China on a pole in the foreground as the plane bounces through a street scene. A "Stolen Bike - Call Rob" sign appears in Paris on the pole next to Candace when she first sees Jeremy. Whoever Rob is, he sure gets around!

Jeremy and Candace share their first kiss in this episode.

Goof: When the group passes a ship in the Atlantic Ocean, one sailor says he sees 5 kids on a baguette boat. However, there were 6 occupants.

Goof: When Isabella is looking at the sun setting, it is partially under the horizon. Then when Phineas comes, you can visibly see the bottom edge of the sun rise up above the horizon again, before rising away from the horizon line when they are about to launch.
