Candace Gets Busted (Phineas and Ferb)

Candace Gets Busted is an episode from season two of Phineas and Ferb.

Plot
When Linda and Lawrence take a trip, they entrust Candace to be in charge of the house. Candace calls some of her friends over for a small get-together, but when throngs of uninvited guests start to participate, it isn't long before the get-together swells into a wild party. Meanwhile, Dr. Doofenshmirtz is intending to get rid of the condominiums blocking his view from the local drive-in.

Busted Qualities

 * 1) Misleading Title: Candace didn't get busted until at the end, In fact, it spoils the ending.
 * 2) Despite what Candace said, Stacy and Jenny still invited more people without her permission.
 * 3) Plot hole: in a part of the episode it is said that Candace and Jeremy are not dating yet, when since "Summer Belongs To You!" they were already a couple.
 * 4) False Advertising: in one of the promos that were distributed both in Latin America and in Europe, it was said that this episode was a 30-minute special and that the plot was about Phineas, Ferb, Candace, Isabella, Buford, and Baljeet throwing a party.
 * 5) * However, the episode is 11 minutes long, the plot is different from what the promos said, and the characters of Isabella, Buford, and Baljeet do not appear in it.
 * 6) The episode copies all aspects of the SpongeBob SquarePants Season 7 episode Tentacle-Vision,
 * 7) * In both chapters the third protagonist, in this case, Candace and Squidward, seek to do something at home but due to an unknown misunderstanding, they end up organizing a party at their house.
 * 8) * In both chapters, the nemeses attack each other several times, in this case, Major Monogram and Perry with Doof similar to Mr. Krabs with Plankton.
 * 9) * In both episodes the two protagonists, in this case, SpongeBob and Patrick as Phineas and Ferb, join the party.
 * 10) * In both chapters the third protagonist, Squidward and Candace end badly while the party continues.
 * 11) * In both chapters, the title has nothing to do with the plot of the episode.
 * 12) The Candace/Phineas and Ferb plot sounds very weak since it uses the "making a party without the parents' permission" cliche.
 * 13) Doof's plan of getting rid of the condominiums blocking his view from the local drive-in is stupid since he could only move the chair in another window to be able to see the film.
 * 14) Although the characters retain their personalities, Linda, Lawrence, Jeremy, Vanessa, and Stacy have an almost one-dimensional attitude in the episode.
 * 15) In some syndicated dubs of the episode, the Candace Party song is mistranslated, and some words are adapted.
 * 16) Phineas and Ferb act out of character in this episode, as they didn't do anything to help Candace put a stop to the party and just allowed it to get out of hand, which, ironically, means they got their sister in trouble.
 * 17) Bad Ending: Candace gets busted by her parents for throwing a party, even though it wasn't her fault, and Phineas and Ferb neither stood up for their sister nor tried to help put an end to the party according to their parents' wishes.
 * 18) Overall, It was a poor way to end the second season of Phineas and Ferb.

Good Qualities

 * 1) The "Candace Party" song is catchy and hilarious.
 * 2) Phineas, Ferb, Candace, Doof, and Perry are still likable.
 * 3) Doof and Perry's subplot is still good, even though Doof's plan is still lame.
 * 4) Great animation and voice acting, as usual.

Reception
Despite having an 8.2 rating on IMDb, this episode has a mixed-to-negative reception from the critics and fans alike, with many of them considering one of (and if not) the worst episode of Phineas and Ferb
