ntally left off the tower causes it to collapse and destroy half of the house, enraging Linda and her husband. Fearing for the boys' safety, the boys' parents send them to the "Smile Away Reform School" unaware that the place is a prison where kids are brainwashed with films that show them not to be creative or imaginative. They also are made to "Think inside the box," which is a form of solitary confinement where kids that show creativity must spend an hour in the box. For example Phineas and Ferb are imprisoned in the box when they show creativity by engaging in actions such as painting pictures, sculpting the Thinker, making an Eiffel Tower out of silverware, etc. Candace, meanwhile, enjoys life without her brothers to bother her, hanging out with her friends and doing different fun activities with them. A few days later Candace is bored and tired after doing so much, she watches TV with her best friend Stacy. Candace gets haunted by sad consequences of her busting Phineas and Ferb and realizes that she has truly loved her brothers for their genius skills and did not realize it.
