lost phineas and ferb episode where perry is called to investigate what dr doofenshmirtz is up to because carl the intern got ahold of some intel that doof has been seen speaking to lawyers and looking up the endangered species act at internet cafes and as major monogram says, "something fishy is going on"
meanwhile phineas and ferb's subplot of "i know what we're gonna do today!" is that isabella needs her environmentalist fireside girls badge so they start researching which species are in urgent need of help in the tri-state area so that they can use new cloning and gene therapy technologies to bring at-risk animals back from extinction
(yes there is a c-plot where buford and baljeet argue the ethics of this idea, i don't have time to explain it all for you rn)
we cut back to🎵doofenshmirtz evil incorporated🎵where we see perry carefully maneuvering around doofenshmirtz's lab scared he might fall into a trap but he hasn't set off a single booby trap and it's clear something is off
he runs into doofenshmirtz and goes to kick him in the gut action movie style but doof steps back one overly confident and says, "nuh uh uh, you see perry the platypus, you are TRAPPED! by the danville section of the endangered species act of 1973!"
doof goes on to explain his tragic backstory: "you see, perry the platypus, when i was a child my parents did not show up for my own birth! but you know that already, yadda yadda yadda they did not love me and then they loved roger more, ANYways i was raised by ocelots! i had a lovely foster mother who took me in and made me one of the pride, and so you see, perry the platypus, i am still legally considered an ocelot. did you know that there are only 50 recorded ocelots still alive in the continental united states? very sad for me as a member of a near-extinct species. it would be immoral for you to hurt someone critically endangered... in fact, you have made many attempts on my life this summer"
[montage of doof's security camera footage of their battles]
"which is why i have decided to bring you... TO COURT!" we cut back to phineas and ferb's back yard where they've decided to start cloning ocelots in their kiddie pool
candace storms outside enraged and says, "phineas and ferb are you cloning ocelots in my duckie momo kiddie pool!?"
ferb's one line of the episode is "well, i guess it's more of a kitty pool, now"
candace storms away saying, "i'm going to tell mom!" and isabella turns to phineas and says, "oh, does your mom have experience in wildlife conservation?"
we cut back to the doof and perry plotline where the two are now in the danville hall of justice and we learn that doof has spent his monthly alimony check on a defense lawyer and perry turns and sees the lawyer and then vanessa helping her organize her briefcase and perry chitters at her and vanessa shrugs and says, "i'm thinking about going into legal defense. sorry perry."
the rest of the doof and perry b-plot is spent in court and perry is about to ask for a public defense lawyer when carl runs into the room and explains that he's owca's official legal defense and perry looks at him like, "uhhh is that even allowed?"
it doesn't matter because apparently the judge is out sick today but because it's danville roger's the judge now because he's the mayor and everyone loves him.
the court case continues.
meanwhile phineas and ferb have successfully cloned multiple ocelots from the original ocelot dna they had on hand and isabella asks phineas if these clones will experience health problems like premature aging, phineas casually explains that ferb figured out the problem while they were experimenting with stem cell harvesting.
back in the courtroom, doof's ocelot foster mother has been brought to the stand along with an ocelot to english translator. doof gets emotional seeing her after so long. she says that he was one of her favorite child and he was as strong a hunter as anyone else in the family. it's incredibly sweet. the jury's in tears.
meanwhile, isabella has established connections with a group in texas who are going to release the ocelots back into their natural habitat and, using the cloned ocelots to prevent inbreeding, help establish an ocelot breeding program. the group explains that they are going to send a helicopter to retrieve the cloned ocelots from danville and bring them to texas soon.
isabella gets her fireside girls badge.
candace manages to get mom to see the backyard only after the ocelots have been helicoptered off to coastal texas, their primary habitat.
mom makes it into the backyard as phineas stares wistfully over the fence and says, "if you love something, you have to let it go." candace goes, "look mom look look look!" and points at the ducky momo kiddie pool, devoid of cloned ocelots, where baljeet and buford are now chilling out, having settled their philosophical debate about the ethics of animal cloning.
back in the courtroom drama, doof looks like he's about to win when an attendant walks into the courtroom and whispers something in roger's ear.
roger looks up, grinning, and says, "good news, everyone! my attendant here has just enlightened me that ocelots are no longer considered critically endangered!"
this settles the case, with perry being decreed not guilty and the entire affair being called off. the courtroom cheers, roger walks over to doof and personally congratulates him on his species' return from the brink of extinction.
doof shouts, "curse you endangered species classification system!" at the ceiling of the danville hall of justice.
perry arrives back home just in time for mom to say, "who wants pie?"
the end.

it very well may be lost media at this point but i remember in 2015 when phineas and ferb were still in the disney parks + you could still meet them, in the area where the meet and greet was, there was an audio overlay of like. the Danville Radio. and characters would "call in" and then a song from the show would play. i remember distinctly that jeremy called in to request a song that makes him think of candace and then do nothing day played. i might try asking reddit to see if anyone knows where this audio is because id love to listen to it again and that website is REALLY good at finding things.

Is there any episode that shows like, Doof’s backup dancers get paid or anything? I remember seeing someone saying they’re unionized but I don’t recall that ;0
Yes, he pays them in “Oil on Candace” and mentions they’re unionized in that episode
and “Lost in Danville!”
(He also got billed for ruining the shoes of one of the chorus girls from “This is Your Backstory.”)

"Are you lost?"
An innocent enough question as the boy looked at the stranger. He had never seen them before and he had taken their glancing this way and that with a confused look as a sure sign that they didn't know where they were. Or where they were going, at the very least.
"I can give you directions if you need. I know my way around Danville pretty well."

Phineas & Ferb: Buford Van Stomm —Aesthetic
Buford Van Stomm's Character & Personality
Buford is an American boy with possibly Dutch or Norwegian background. He's a bully in the town of Danville who joins Phineas and Ferb on their adventures. Although Buford is usually seen as a bully who often engages in problematic behavior, he's unusual because he often acts like the other kids. Many events indicatе his bullying is used to hide his more caring nature underneath. An example of this is Buford's soft spot towards his pet goldfish, Biff. When he becomes lost, the boy becomes extremely emotional. Buford cries but says he's "sweating through his eyes." After being offered help to find Biff, Buford shows his appreciation by constantly wanting to hug people. In fact, he's quite gentle person as he also has a soft side for his long lost teddy bear, Teddy Boo-boo. Despite being a bully, Buford is friends with the rest of the main cast. He usually manages to get along with people, but he's often gruff or makes (usually idle) threats when annoyed. Buford also likes video games, skateboarding, food, talking about people behind their backs. Yet, he hates math and being embarrassed.
