[♪...]

[Background voices]

Man: hold on, hold on!

The observant high counsel tribunal is now in session.

Bring in the prisoner.

For centuries, the prisoner has plagued the planet earth

With horrible and unpredictable meteorological events.

Cities have been wiped out.

Countless lives have been endangered.

Observant high counsel

What say you?

All: guilty!

Guilty!

Before we pronounce sentence

Have you anything to say?

Vortex?

Yes.

[Gasps] fry!

[Maniacal laughter]

[Screaming]

Your weather powers are rendered inert

By our spectral barometer, vortex.

There is no possible way for you to escape.

Oh, I wouldn't say that.

[expl*si*n]

[Cries of alarm]

[expl*si*n]

Who are you?

Plasmius, vlad plasmius.

Free!

Finally...

Free!

Yes, yes, no need to thank me.

Thank you?

Vortex thanks no one!

You should be rejoicing that I even allow you in my presence.

[Gasps] fly speck.

Now stand aside

As I unleash the full [gasps]

Fury of my power on that meaningless planet earth.

[Screaming]

Unleashing your power on the earth?

That's funny, that's exactly what I was thinking.

Please, I'll do anything you ask.

Yes, yes, you will.

And I have a vivid imagination.

[♪...]

Man: he's a phantom.

Danny phantom, danny phantom.

♪ Yo, danny phantom, he was just ♪

♪ When his parents built a very strange machine ♪

♪ It was designed to view a world unseen ♪

♪ He's gonna catch 'em all 'cause he's danny phantom ♪

♪ When it didn't quite work, his folks, they just quit ♪

♪ But then danny took a look inside of it ♪

♪ There was a great big flash, everything just changed ♪

♪ His molecules got all rearranged ♪

♪ Phantom...

♪ When he first woke up, he realized ♪

♪ He had snow white hair and glowing green eyes ♪

♪ He could walk through walls, disappear and fly ♪

♪ He was much more unique than the other guys ♪

♪ And it was then that he knew what he had to do ♪

♪ He had to stop all the ghosts that were coming through ♪

♪ He's here to fight for me and you ♪

[♪...]

[Bubbling]

Tucker: man, I can't ever remember it being this hot for so long.

Can you danny?

Uh-oh.

Looks like commander crab is off fighting the happies again.

No worries.

My mood mellower, patent-pending

Will take care of that in a flash.

Yup, yup.

[Giggling]

[Girls giggling]

Hello, ladies.

[Beeping]

Will you get this off of me?

Must have some bugs to work out.

Yeah, in your head.

Mayor: my dearest citizens.

Our current heat wave

And subsequent water shortage

Have thrown amity park into a state of emergency.

But being as I am your mayor

And many of you are undoubtedly questioning why or how you voted for me

I vow that the fortunes of amity park

Are about to change with this.

My very own rain machine.

There's no way vlad's gonna make it rain with that thing.

So why are we even wasting our time here?

Because your dad is vlad's biggest supporter?

Give me a "v"!

Give me an "l"!

Come on, people, work with me here.

He's probably gonna keep this up until vlad isn't the mayor anymore.

Will we have to deal with your cruddy attitude till then, too?

I'm sorry, guys.

I just can't help being embarrassed...

And annoyed.

Not like I can turn off my emotions.

If only vlad's machine can change your mood.

He'd be on to something.

I'll have to work on that, won't i?

But for now, my loyal constituents

Will have to settle for a sudden change of weather.

[Screaming]

[Groaning]

So that dolt is tired of the heat wave he ordered.

Very well, then.

Let there be rain!

Sorry, v-man.

Looks like your weather machine's a total...

[Thunder rumbles]

[Lightning cracks]

[Chanting "rain"]

Whenever I think vlad's crazy

I forget to add, like a fox.

There is no way he actually made it rain.

Ow!

Reporter: there's just no ducking the rain here in amity park.

And that's the best news in weeks.

The drought is over

And we all have our super-neato mayor, vlad masters, to thank.

We owe you a debt of gratitude, mr. Mayor.

Feel free to send us the bill.

Ow!

Get this thing off me!

Or bring me some orange sauce!

[Lightning striking]

[Screeches]

[Cat shrieks]

Vortex, my boy, you have done well.

My approval ratings are up a whopping percent.

I am good, aren't i?

But this paltry rain

Is just the tip of the iceberg.

Like the one I'll create in the middle of the sahara

Once I'm free!

And I'll be anxious to see that

As soon as you stop the rain.

Stop the rain?

The weather is my art.

I will not just stop it.

Did anyone ask picasso to stop painting the mona lisa?

That was da vinci, you dolt.

Whatever.

Bottom line.

The rain stays!

[Screaming]

A pleasure doing business with you.

[Maniacal laughter]

[Screaming]

[Groaning]

Ah!

Since you refused my freedom

I'll see to it that your

[Gasps] pathetic village endures the worst

[Gasp] storm ever created.

Tied to a leash.

The maelstrom.

[Inhaling]

[Crashing]

Smile mayor masters.

Reporter: all residents are advised by mayor masters

Who is to blame for this mess

To board up your windows and batten down your hatches.

This is lance thunder, saying:

Run for your lives!

I quit...

This is awful.

I'll say.

Vladie's approval ratings are down to percent.

He's really ruined things with this rainstorm.

It's a major emergency.

Right, and there's only one place to be in an emergency.

The emergency op center.

[Lightning crashes]

Although the guest bathroom is kind of comfy, too.

I hide snacks in there.

Ow!

Nothing like a little spring rain to freshen things up around here.

Ay, danny?

Spring rain?

Those are -mile-an-hour winds.

Dad, how can you blindly ignore the fact that all of this destruction

Was probably caused by your old college pal.

Danny, don't get so emotional.

Vladie would never do something like that.

How do you know?

Be-because, he's... Vlad.

Give me a "v"!

Someone's gonna give me a "v" or there's gonna be trouble.

Oh!

Plasmius.

Nice weather we're having.

Ah, yes, the obligatory weather pun, how original.

But I have no time to take exception.

I must resort to humiliatingly desperate measures.

Daniel?

I need your help.

Nice move, plasmius.

Unleashing an evil weather ghost

Just so you could look good to the voters?

I don't expect you to understand my reasons, danny.

The important thing is if we're going to defeat vortex

We're going to have to do it together.

[Roaring]

Come to admire my greatness up close?

Uh, no.

I just wanted to introduce you to a friend.

Danny, vortex.

Vortex, danny.

Well, gotta fly, tah.

My hero.

A ghost boy?

So you're the one they call

Danny... [Gasps]

Phantom?

Actually, you'll find I'm more than one these days.

Come on, come on.

I did it!

[Laughing]

[Gasping... Inhaling]

[Sighs]

[Laughing]

Ah-ha!

[Grunting]

Woman reporter: breaking news over amity park.

Amity park's own hero, danny phantom

Is engaged in an epic battle

With what appears to be

Some sort of weather ghost.

Danny should see this.

Where is he?

Uh, he's at sam's, he called, he's fine.

Anyway...

Ahh!

Ooh!

[Sighs] your dreary efforts bore me, ghost boy.

I was expecting a more

[Gasps] electrifying performance from you.

[Inhales]

[Grunts]

[Laughing]

[Screaming]

[Groaning]

Help!

[expl*si*n]

Now, to show the rest of the world the fury of vortex.

[Maniacal laughter]

Danny!

Chorus: ♪ ahh...

Hurry, tucker, danny's in there.

[Grunting]

[Laughing]

Hey, quit laughing at me.

Oh, great, more weather fun.

Mayor: calm down, everyone, calm down.

Mayor masters is here.

Rest assured, everything's fine.

You!

Do you have any clue what you've done?

Mayor: ohh...

O.k., That's weird.

It's almost as if danny caused that twister.

If that weather ghost is around here, I'll show him a pressure zone he'll never forget.

Ahh!

[Mayor panting]

Both: ahh!

No!

[Crash]

Jack, are you o.k.?

Sure thing, sweet cakes.

The airbags didn't deploy

But thank goodness for the big vlad head.

Sam: danny, wait!

Danny: I've gotta go help my parents.

Your parents are fine.

It's you we're worried about.

Call us nuts, but we just saw the weather change three times, in synch with your mood.

Mayor: that's preposterous.

Back off, masters.

[Thunder rumbling]

Ow!

Uh, uh...

Oh... Ah.

See what we mean?

I have felt kind of tingly

Since that lightning bolt blew up my force field.

The electricity passing through your ectoshield

Must have caused you to absorb some of vortex's weather controlling power.

[Lightning crashes]

Meaning you need to take a deep breath and calm down

Before we have another storm like the last one.

[Sighs]

Women: ♪ ahh...

I've heard of having a sunny disposition but this is nuts.

Curses, just when I'm on the verge of a triumph

The roller coaster emotions of a, a, a teenager

thr*aten my plans.

Hey, you brought the guy here in the first place.

[Wind blowing]

Both: calm down.

[Exhales]

Easy, big guy.

Keep it mellow.

Mayor: the implications here are serious, daniel.

Your anger could cause cyclones.

Your sadness, monsoons.

You're going to have to remain here and keep calm

Until your friends can find vortex

And bring him back here.

What about you?

Negative.

The mayor's absence in the wake of disaster

Would create civic unease.

Uh-huh, along with the instant end of your political career

And all subsequent evil plans.

Ha, ha, ha, touché.

[Sighs] I'm afraid I'll have to take it upon myself

To keep danny safe and calm

Until you complete the task.

Me stay with you?

Forget it.

[Lightning crashes]

Uh, ah!

Will you quit doing that!

Look on the bright side, danny.

Until we get back

He's gonna have to cater to your every whim and desire.

Yeah, he wouldn't wanna make you angry.

This pleases me.

[Gulping]

Hello, I specifically said, "no tomato."

Locked down tighter than a drum.

This baby won't be going anywhere for a while.

Ooh!

Note to self: never tighten any drums.

We ditched school and stole the fenton blimp.

We'd better find vortex and bring him back to cure danny

Or we're going to jail for life.

We'll find him.

We've got the most reliable forecasting tool known to man.

The atmosphere channel.

At the top of the hour, I'm offshore flo.

Severe weather conditions with faces

Are now in effect on four corners of the globe.

Our accumetronic radar

Indicates another major storm front rapidly approaching venice, italy.

This is auto-jack saying, "chicks dig guys who fly."

We're setting a new course.

Take us to italy.

Danny: thanks for taking me to the vid convention, unckie vlad.

Oh, don't mention it, dear boy.

If this makes you happy, then so be it.

You know how much I care for you.

Ha! Eat that wimp!

Hey, no fair.

Ah.

[All screaming]

Gee, looks like your rain machine works like a charm, mr. Mayor.

Yeah, and now you're gonna have to buy

Every ruined video game in the place, mr. Mayor.

[Thunder rumbles]

[Gasps] buongiorno, venezia , ha, ha!

My reign of terror continues.

Al dente.

There he is.

[Growling]

I don't think we're gonna be able to stop him.

The weather is catastrophic all over the world.

Sam: almost over the world.

Here's what we're gonna do.

Sam: vortex,

You must be proud of yourself right about now.

Oh, you know it.

I have succeeded in disrupting weather patterns

[Gasps] all over the globe.

I am the perfect storm.

Well, mr. Perfect.

Seems there's one place

Where the weather is calm and clear.

Good old amity park.

What?

Surely you're mistaken.

My power reaches to the ends of the earth.

Not in amity park.

Danny phantom scared you away.

No one scares me!

[Growling]

This has been a great time, unckie vlad.

I really must tie my emotions to the weather more often.

I'm really looking forward to that foot massage.

Anything for you, dear boy.

Keeping you calm and happy is my motto, you know.

[Thunder rumbles]

Where is he?

And now my job is done.

Ahh... Ooh!

Unckie vlad?

Let's go, water boy.

Ah!

[Growling]

[Maniacal laughter]

Vortex, stop this insanity

And remove the child's weather-changing abilities at once.

Ahh...

Guys, perfect timing.

I could use your help.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but...

Tucker, I need your virtual reality helmet.

We need to harness your mood power to defeat vortex.

No problem, maestro.

Play me like a violin.

Danny: hey, vortex!

Today's forecast?

Partly cloudy with a chance of pain.

Ha, is that the best you can do?

I am invincible.

O.k., Tucker, let's do it.

Commencing operation, "mess with danny's emotions."

Girls: come and run with us, danny.

Hey, fenton.

[Grunting] oh, "dormit" dash.

Hey, it's working.

Ahh...

Ahh...

This is not my nature.

Fire two.

Oh, such cute animals.

They all look so sad.

[Gasps]

[Groaning]

The elements are mine to control.

[Growling]

[Shocked gasp]

Hey, sam, great day for a picnic, huh?

[Short gasp]

Uh...

♪ Ahh...

[Screaming]

O.k., Danny, now.

Danny: ahh...

Ahh...

Ah, very clever, ghost punk.

But let's see if you can handle this!

What... I'm... Powerless?

And I'm not!

Ow!

[Gasps]

No!

Danny!

You still look really angry.

I'm totally angry.

Vlad's ego almost caused the entire town to be destroyed.

But the sun's still shining.

That means your emotions aren't tied to the weather anymore.

Great!

Well, that's that.

Vortex is back with the observants

And the weather is fine.

Now we can go back to ignoring mayor vlad's little escapades.

Mayor: and so, good citizens...

I promised you rain, yes, and I delivered.

Despite danny phantom and his ghost friends

Wreaking havoc with it.

What, he's trying to pin this mess on me?

What else is new?

That's vlad for you.

Always trying to steal your thunder.

Ha! Good one, huh?

That's vlad for you.

Always trying to steal your thunder.

Ha! Good one, huh?

[Laughing]

Much better.

Modern technology to the rescue again.
