Thanks for reading it anyway!  I don't know how comprehensible it is
to someone who doesn't know P&F

Doofenschmirtz.... has things in common with Drakken but also
different as I see you saw before.

Doofenschmirtz was once a master of shadow-puppetry as a child, until
Big Hand Hans, who had giant hands, showed up and stole his girlfriend
with his GIANT SHADOW PUPPETS.  (Canon)

He is saying 'Do not pass up a chance for a kiss just because it would
make you miss your favorite chorus'; ie, kissing is better than
choruses.

He was the right age in the 80s to understand the true horror of that EVIL GAME.

Heh, an interesting theory.

Doofenschmirtz is weirdly, a very good father in a messed up sort of
way.  In one episode, we find out he has been trying since Vanessa was
FIVE to get her the present she wanted them, which he FINALLY gets.
This, however leads to VANESSA VS CANDACE, because Candace owned the
doll and her parents sold it in a yard sale when she wasn't looking...

Almost all of Doof's inventions are called SOMETHING-inator, such as
the Burn-inator, the Shrink-inator, etc.

DOOOOH.  Fixed.

She is not Kim.

>>She didn't need a good excuse.  She was EVIL, dammit.

Shego is awesomely fun to write.

>> "This is AWESOME," Fred said.

>> "WOO!" Lacey shouted.  "I wish my Dad was evil!"
> Heh.

Vanessa often becomes aggravated because her friends think her Dad is cool :)

Yes.

>> She opened the window and flipped out of it up onto the roof.

Candace is awesome IF SHE DOES NOT THINK ABOUT IT.  Candace does crazy
stuff easily if she doesn't think too much about what she's doing or
if she goes into OBSESSION mode, like the time she won a Monster Truck
battle while trying to learn to parallel park.

It is Suzie; Suzie is Jeremy's little sister, who is rather
manipulative and hates Candace because she doesn't like her brother
liking anyone more than her.

Doofenschmirtz has even less good luck than Drakken and tends to
invent brilliant things with big built in weaknesses.

>>This made enough sense to worry Shego she was missing something.

Changed this to:

	This made enough sense that Shego worried she was missing something
obviously wrong with the idea.

Will fix.

Bing bing!

There's no canon explanation of what happened to Linda's ex-husband or
Lawrence's ex-wife, so I made something up.

>>Perry made odd gestures with his head as if he expected her to do

> Another P&F in-joke?

Yeah.

>>"Oh come on, a loser like Doofenschmirtz with a wife and child?

That got reversed somehow; he claims second, she points out it's only first.

>> Everyone suddenly turned and looked at them and Shego said, "New

> Heh.

Shego has a degree in Child Development and an odd soft spot for kids.

The but...I dunno.  Will cut.

YES.

Got it.

Fixed

DANG.

Double fixed.

For Kim, that's what you do before breakfast.

YES.  FIXED.

Hahaha.

Hehe. :)

I will note the Rocky Horror jokes are because Lawrence's VA is
Richard O'Brien, who was Riff Raff in Rocky Horror, and IIRC, he wrote
it.
