Phineas and Ferb Wiki

I found how I can contribute to the world, by being a mobile logistics technician.

— Paul the Delivery Guy

Paul the Delivery Guy discovers his job has a higher calling to save Danville as he makes stops at Phineas and Ferb's house, Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc., Danville City Hall and the OWCA. The rock band Love Händel returns for some musical accompaniment. Meanwhile, at Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc., Perry has lost the tools in his hat.

Episode Summary[]

In the backyard, Phineas and Ferb are discussing their latest idea, a city-wide amusement park on a single track. Paul the Delivery Guy arrives and asks Phineas to sign the delivery note for the 20 tons of building material they ordered. Phineas signs the notice with the pen Paul had left in their backyard on the previous day, and assures him that the pen would not be lost again as he and Ferb had installed a clip on it for him.

On the road in the Hightail Delivery truck, Paul talks on a headset with his father, who works in the same company, confirming that he had accidentally left the boys the blue slip rather than the pink one as he was supposed to. His father tells him that he should be taking his job more seriously, but Paul explains how he is unsure if he wants to be a delivery guy. Paul turns on the radio and listens as the radio host informs listeners to keep an eye out for the WJOP party van in the streets, as the first listener to spot it and say the key phrase receives a prize. Paul then arrives at his next stop, Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated.

As the elevator of the Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated building is out of order, Paul has to carry the large package all the way up the flight of stairs. At the top, he enters Doofenshmirtz's apartment and is immediately trapped in a tiny cage. Doofenshmirtz releases him and apologizes, explaining that the cage was intended for someone else. Doofenshmirtz tells him his evil scheme of how he plans to shoot City Hall with his latest inator and turn it into juice to humiliate his brother Roger so he can take over. In turn, Paul tells Doofenshmirtz about how he feels unfulfilled at his own job, and Doofenshmirtz offers him a job as a minion, but Paul declines. As he leaves, Doofenshmirtz notices that he left the blue slip instead of the pink one.

Back on the road, Paul drives by Phineas and Ferb, who are now on their completed one-track ride across the city. Suddenly, the WJOP party van crashes into the back of his truck, and Paul steps out to check the damage. Accidentally stating the key phrase, Paul realizes that he won Love Händel as his personal musicians for the day. To his annoyance, they follow him around and turn everything he does into a tune.

After delivering to Roger the empty box he ordered for his cat to play in at City Hall, Paul tells Love Händel his dilemma. Love Händel then sings to Paul about wanting food, so they head to Mr. Slushy Burger for lunch where Candace is explaining her latest busting endeavors to Jeremy. There, Paul's father calls and informs him that there is another package to be delivered to Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated. As Paul delivers the last part of Doofenshmirtz's Juice-inator, he notices Perry, whose emergency spy tools are missing from their usual place in his fedora, struggling in the cage.

Paul and Love Händel arrive at their last stop of the day, the O.W.C.A. headquarters, where they learn that Carl removed Perry's tools to clean and repair. Paul then realizes how important his job can be, and agrees to deliver Perry's tools, finally leaving the pink copy and taking the blue one. After being stuck in traffic, Paul and Love Händel hitch a ride on Phineas and Ferb's track to the Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated building, where Paul delivers the tools. However, as soon as Perry is free, Doofenshmirtz traps him again in a pit in the floor. As the inator is ready to fire, Paul ties it up and takes off with Perry on his paraglider.

The children, Candace, and Linda stand around in confusion at the juice puddles on the ground. At the O.W.C.A., Major Monogram offers Paul a job, but he declines, stating that being a mobile logistics technician is his calling. As he leaves, Perry notices that he forgot his pen.

Running Gags[]

The "Too Young" Line[]

Paul: (Talking by intercommunicator) Hi Dad, yes I just delivered to Phineas and Ferb. (His father tells him something, probably asking if they're a little young) Yes, yes they are.
Roger: Are they with you?
Paul: Yes, yes they are.

Ferb's Line[]

Talking about Paul's pen he forgot.

Phineas: No problem, I'll just use the pen you left here yesterday. Ferb and I modified it so you won't lose it again.
Paul: What did you guys do? Install a homing sensor?

Ferb: Actually, we just put a clip on it.

Memorable Quotes[]

(Evil Jingle plays.) What a weird looking building.
Paul: I think your little—what is that, a Dachshund?
Dr. Doofenshmirtz: Platypus.
Paul: Looks like he doesn't want to be in that cage.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz: Oh, him? No, no, he likes it.
Paul: I mean, just look at those kids!
Love Händel: Look at those kids!
Danny: Hey, we know them! Hey, Phineas! Hey, Ferb!
Phineas: Hi, guys!
Paul: I mean, what is it that you guys really want?
Love Händel: We're hungry and we wanna eat!
Paul: Alright, fine.
Jeremy: Candace, I'd really like to help you with your latest busting endeavor, but I have customers waiting.
Love Händel: We're hungry and we want to eat!
(Paul is tired from climbing up the many flights of stairs in Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated)
Woman: (coming out of elevator, then sees Paul on the floor) You know, they fixed the elevator.
(Love Händel comes up the stairs)
Paul: Hey, why don't you just take the elevator? (he walks into the said elevator) Got a song for that? (the elevator closes)
Danny: Actually, we do!
Love Händel: We just climbed up 65 flights!
Carl: (with high-pitched voice) Uh, I'm gonna go sign for the package.
Major Mongram: Carl, your voice just got squeaky! I know that squeaking!
Carl: Where do I sign?
Major Monogram: CARL, WHAT ARE YOU NOT TELLING ME?!
Carl: (with normal voice) Sir, Agent P doesn't have his tools. I took them out to clean and repair them.
Major Monogram: Something inside me just... broke.
Bobbi: Hey guys! We're covered in juice and packing tape! What does that remind you of?
Swampy: Detroit, 1984!
Major Monogram: Excellent work, young man, excellent. You know it's unprecedented you being human, but I would like to offer you a job with the agency. What do you say, son? You want to fight evil?
Paul: Thanks, but no thanks. I found how I can contribute to the world, by being a mobile logistics technician.
Carl: That's a delivery guy, sir.
Major Monogram: I know what it is. (Perry picks up the pen.) Huh, nice pen.

Errors[]

Mainroad error

The mainroad is seen beside the driveway

  • During the opening scene, a main road is unusually seen beside the Flynn-Fletcher's house; usually, it's only seen as a driveway, and there is another house beside the Flynn-Fletcher's house.
  • When Love Händel is sliding down the tube in O.W.C.A., Swampy's tie is going through his arm.
  • The package that Paul has to deliver to Doofenshmirtz is mislabeled:
    Dr Heinz Dooferschirtz
    DEi Entey prites
    DEI Pisze
    Dannlle
    • When Paul finally gets the package up the stairs, the label changes:
      Dr. Heinz Dootfenachmirtz
      DEI Enter Prites
      DEI Pisze
      Danrille
  • In the 1960s, the major manufacturers standardized putting Neutral between Reverse and Drive on the automatic transmission selector. The gear pattern on the Hightail Delivery van is PNRDTURBO, for Park-Neutral-Reverse-Drive.
  • When Paul makes the emergency delivery to Perry and engages the turbo gear on his van, he passes the same two cars on the same street in the same manner as he did before.
  • When Paul asks Major Monogram to fill out the 237 form, he says "You keep the pink copy, the blue copy's mine!". This is intended to underscore his own maturity since the beginning of the episode, where he forgets which color copy of the form he should keep, and which copy belongs to Phineas and Ferb. The color copy that Major Monogram would receive should be neither pink nor blue, since pink would be for Perry and blue would only be left after he completed the delivery.
  • During "Kitty in a Box", the lyrics are "Almost as fun as a genie in a box", but the closed captions read "Almost as fun as a kitty in socks".
  • One of the signs of Phineas and Ferb's lemonade business is seen in a building when Paul and Love Händel interact with Irving. When Paul rushes his van to deliver Perry's tools, the sign is missing.
    • This does not reflect the ending of "The Lemonade Stand", where Phineas and Ferb had already closed their lemonade business.

Continuity[]

  • Phineas and Ferb's lemonade stand's sign can be seen in a building ("The Lemonade Stand").

Allusions[]

  • Date with Destiny - The title is a reference to the phrase.
  • Flatiron Building - In the final delivery scene, Paul drives by a brief shot of a building that bears a strong resemblance to the Flatiron Building in New York.
