    Perry & Doofenshmirtz are definitely friends.

And if I remember the episode correctly, i think Doof started to miss Perry because Peter was either way too serious about his job or did absolutely nothing (not sure which one it was).

    Doofenschmirtz and Perry always had like a frenemy relationship in P&F. They fight each other but when they are both in deep sh*t they help out the other. There was an episode when Doof genuinely was offended when no one wrecked his plans. Especially by Perry.
    Looks like the only genuine relationship he had was with his daughter, his robot sidekick Norm, and his 'destiny' Perry. Doof always has dumb reasons why he invents -Inators, but really, it's just a way to get attention from people who keep him company.

    Also, there is an /insane/ amount of romantic/couple jokes with these two - from dressing them in matching wedding outfits, to having them go to couple's counseling after Doof "betrays" Perry with a different agent, to have them dancing together in New Years (its a pretty cute scene, honestly)

    Doof and Perry are friends... except for the fact that Perry has to thwart his evil plans. BUT they both do realize and respect that thats just his job. Thus, "frenemies". They respect each other and expect the other to uphold their role in their dynamic.
    When Doof is having personal/family problems, Perry usually helps him out as long as his plans arent evil. He also helps Doof out of mortal peril (usually by Doof's own making). Doof takes serious offense whenever someone else threatens Perry and their dynamic. They also (sometimes) apologize to each other when they realize they've gone too far and actually hurt the other's feelings.
    In the end, Doof does come to the good side and they're able to be truly friends-- except for the fact that theres hurt feelings because they dont see each other so often anymore, but thats a plot for a whole other series!

    Also, throughout the series, Perry is his only friend. There is also love muffin, but perry is always there when he needs it. That is probably why he creates a new inator everyday of the summer. After a while of being neglected sometimes you give up on trying. The show is so great because it's one of the most episodic shows out there, expecially because every episode is the same plot, but there is still a lot of lore.

    Doofenshmirtz is, canonically, legally an ocelot. Which means he was allowed to become a field agent for OWCA for a short period of time, which only allows animals to become field agents. Doofenshmirtz's childhood is really sad but also weird.

    Doofenshmirtz and Perry's relantionship is like a mix of nemesis/BFFs/married couple. They are enemies, but they also have this close bond that sterns from the very fact they are nemesis and Doof shares his past with Perry while explaining his plans that caused them to actually become frienemies. And the best part is that, whenever there's problems between them, that is always described as if they were married. Take Peter the Panda as an example. Peter is basically Doof's "new flame", because he got bored of Perry as an enemy.

      He gets into the OWCA because of that twice, actually. Once during the season 3 episode "Agent Doof" where an invention so utterly fails that he decides he's not very good at being evil and becomes a good guy, and in the "OWCA Files", a TV special that was supposed to be a pilot for a spin-off series where he and a few other animal agents team up with Perry as their leader to take down villains.

    Doof and Perry are sort of friends and I do believe they get closer as the show progresses, with Perry often times actually showing genuine concern and care for Doof's unfortunate situations and helping him out, etc, to a point that some would even say that they're more than friends by the end, which I think it's fair to assume that they become platonic life partners eventually, because the last chronological adventure we see of them is Perry helping Doof through his mid-life-crisis in an episode that takes place several years in the future

But as the series goes on, it just evolves until they genuinely become friends.

  • @laughingfurry
    @laughingfurry Рік тому +12

    Yeah, Doofenshmirtz has probably the most messed up backstory I'm aware of. As for a run down.
    His birthstory: Simply put, there are instances where the mother doesn't even know she's pregnant until she gives birth. So, what most likely happened is that. She didn't know she was pregnant until she gave birth. As for not being present, his parents likely tried to abandon him at birth. Sadly, stories like that also happens in real life.
    Surprise birthday party: Yeah, sounds like someone had pity on him to allow it to happen. Perhaps the only surprise of that party.
    Ice cream: I disagree, I enjoy mint ice cream. As for garlic ice cream, that sounds disgusting, and I like garlic. Sadly, not the worst I've heard. As an fyi of worse I've seen of food. Bubblegum topped pizza, fruit sushi, and pepper jelly. Actually things that people made.
    Parents and others being abusive jerks: I don't think anything needs to be said. I should point out that such a thing does happen in some small towns. Although, it does explain why he works so hard to make his daughter happy. Even if his help at times is short sighted.
    Raised by Ocelots: Obviously inspired by stories of children being raised by wolves or monkeys. Such as the girl who was said to be raised by the dogs. Whom was unfortunately tied up in a shed and kept there, which the town didn't see a problem with. Shocking the disturbing reality that may have inspired his history. Surprisingly, his Ocelot story ties into his relationship with Perry the Platypus. It's like, they were friends and then they kinda aren't, but still is. Can't wait till you see that one.
    Ballooney: Yeah, that get's darker when Ballooney returns.
    "Ended up in America": Yeah, that was funny.
    Fan theory: Yup. That's where it comes from. She did at some point become a pop star and he does meet her again when she is a pop star. However, no details were mentioned other than the fact that they did meet again later. Not much of an explanation as to why she stopped being a pop star either, aside from the theory that she got pregnant and had to give up being a pop star because of it. Again, nothing thorough enough aside from a couple passing remarks.
    Poetry. Either he was losing his mind at that moment or it was just a callback for humor and nothing more.
    Roger: He did feel sorry and tried to restore the painting. Unfortunately, with Doofenshmirtz being short sighted in his awareness, accidentally destroys the restored painting.
    Buying sausage cooked by someone on the sidewalk: I don't know. comes out good to me. Though, I tend to favor other foods. Then again, I also pass by a lot of people who do the same thing with corn on my commute to work. Sometimes a small street wagon, other times out of a food truck. Don't knock it til you try it, all I'm saying.
    Panda: Has made a few appearances, such as when the space aliens show up. The space aliens also tie in to the return of Ballooney: Though, I think that's during the second visit from the aliens.
    Other things, like the big fingers: I don't think I need to say anything more.
