- Phineas: Well, it'd be fun to finally see the ball drop.
- Vivian Garcia-Shapiro: Oh, it is a wonderful tradition.
- Isabella: And of course there's this other tradition of kissing someone special at midnight!
- Phineas: Well, then I know what we are gonna do tonight!
- Isabella: [excited] Really?
- Phineas: Yeah! We're gonna make our own New Year's Ball and drop it from outer space!
- [Isabella suddenly looks completely dumbfounded and disappointed]
- Vivian Garcia-Shapiro: Your mother is right, Phineas, you have such an active imagination!
- Isabella: [sourly] Not active enough.
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz: [seeing Perry] Perry the Platypus? You can't come in here; this is a black-tie affair.
- [Perry leaves, then returns, wearing a tux but no pants]
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz: Actually, I guess it doesn't really specify pants anywhere, so I guess you're okay.
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz: [dressed up for New Year's Eve] How do I look?
- Norm: Like a pharmacist in a bow tie.
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz: Good enough.
- Ginger Hirano: Stacy! Mom said it's my turn to use the computer.
- Stacy: Not now, Ginger, I'm busy.
- Ginger Hirano: Don't make me open a can of whipped cream on you! Or however that goes.
- Dr. Doofenshmirtz: [tasting an abominable marshmallow] Ooh, it's all marshmallowy and hairy. Not completely unlike summer camp.
- Ferb: "Auld Lang Syne" literally means "old long ago," but I'd rather think of New Year's as an unspoiled universe.
