"Let's Bounce" is an episode of Phineas and Ferb. It premiered on March 16, 2012 on Disney Channel.
Synopsis[]
Inspired by Ferb's personal anti-gravity device, Phineas thinks it would be fun to suspend trampolines all over Danville. Unfortunately for Candace, she also gets zapped by the anti-gravity device and ends up trying to maintain her composure while floating across the dining room floor in front of Jeremy’s family. Meanwhile, Doofenshmirtz has a recipe for evil that involves his Tell-the-Truth-Inator featuring honest Abe Lincoln.
Plot[]
Phineas, Ferb, and Perry are jumping on a trampoline in the backyard, and Phineas says he believes it would be cool to have trampolines everywhere. Ferb stops in midair, to the shock of Phineas. Ferb explains that it's his anti-gravity device and that Phineas gives an idea of their next activity and wonders where Perry is.
Perry enters his lair, where Major Monogram tells him that Doofenshmirtz has been buying some food at the store - namely eggs, vitamins, ice and leeks - and that it translates as a "recipe for evil" and that the first letters of all the foods spell EVIL. Perry leaves via jet-pack.
Candace is in the kitchen helping Linda prepare when she mentioned that the Johnson family was joining them for brunch. Candace was excited and nervous at the same time, as this was the first formal gathering of both families. She worried about making a good impression and questioned the appropriateness of the frittata and frozen orange juice they were serving.
As Linda opened the window to invite Phineas and Ferb to join them, Candace panicked, fearing that their presence would embarrass her. Phineas declined, explaining that he and Ferb were heading to the hardware store. Candace was relieved, but her concerns weren't over. She noticed the anti-gravity device that Phineas and Ferb built in the backyard and decided to remove it. However, as she tried to hall it away, the machine accidentally switched on and zapped her, causing her to float uncontrollably in the air. Candace was terrified if Jeremy's parents see her like this, her opportunities of seeing Jeremy would be over, and frantically searched for a way to reverse the effect.
The Johnson family arrives at the house, where Candace, still trying to hold herself on the ground, is there to greet them. Jeremy asks Suzy if she's excited that she would "love" to see Candace. As Candace lets the Johnson family inside, she holds Mrs. Johnson to go with her while pretending that she can't stop hugging her. Phineas and Ferb use their Anti-Gravity Ray to shoot the trampolines and bounce with their friends which Buford finds gorgeous.
When Perry gets in Doofenshmirtz's lair, there is a tape recorder stating that he can eat some of the eggs, vitamins, ice, or leeks, so he left them all out, and tells Perry that don't destroy his inator with a sledgehammer. When Perry went on the inator, he gets trapped, and Doofenshmirtz introduces his Tell the Truth-Inator and having an Abraham Lincoln robot as a design theme for his inator. He explains in a song that people lie for a lot of things that benefit them and others, such as how he pretends to eat and like Vanessa's horrible cupcakes.
When Linda tells Candace to give the Johnson family some juice, she uses a wrench and puts it in her right leg as a counterweight to keep herself in the ground, and outside the kids enjoying themselves jumping on trampolines in the air. Meanwhile, Doofenshmirtz goes to a baseball game and tries his Tell the Truth-Inator to some random people that it didn't go as expected but when he hits a woman with a mirror, it just bounces back at him, causing him to say "Secretly I'm very lonely". He then hits the catcher with the Tell-the-Truth-inator, who tells a batter from an opposing team that there is a fastball coming up. The batter hits it, and the ball goes flying up and hit the Abe Lincoln robot that starts to malfunction and shifting its loyalty.
When the children are finished playing on the trampolines and head to the garage to get some lemonade, Candace asks them to fasten the reverse switch and blast her to get her back to normal, but Suzy listens in to her saying she's floating and gets a mischievous plan. Suddenly the Abe Lincoln robot turns against Doofenshmirtz chases him that Perry uses a screwdriver to escape. Suzy is trying to show that Candace is actually floating and tries hard to make Candace float in the air. Suzy then throws Candace's upside-down Ducky MoMo plate, and Candace jumps up to catch it. She does, but Linda sees that her feet are gripping onto Mrs. Johnson's face. She asks Candace to tell her the truth. At the same time, the Abe Lincoln robot smashes the control panel, and Perry escapes as the Tell-The-Truth-Inator flies out of control and heads towards the backyard and hits Suzy, who confesses. Candace tries to shows Linda and everyone that she is floating in the air. But Phineas and Ferb puts on the reverse switch and hit Candace, causing her to fall.
She then tries to show Linda the trampolines and anti-gravity Maximus, but the tip of the Tell-The-Truth-Inator snags onto the trampolines and picks them up like a kebab, then also puts into the ray. Candace bursts out only to see everything gone. Suzy just replies with "Bubbles".
