| '''''School's Out! The Musical''''' is a ] ], based on ]'s ] ] '']'', created by ]. The plot involves ] becoming president of KidWorld and ] (guest star ]) trying to take over the world using the clown-turned businessman, Flappy Bob. It has eleven musical numbers (an average of one every 3½ minutes). | |||
| The special began airing on ], ] in the ] on Nickelodeon, but has aired several times in the ] on ] and ], ] on TnaG (]), ] on ] and the ] on ]. This is common for Nickelodeon in the United States, as they will frequently air first-run episodes in other countries before airing them in ] as a type of "test run" to scrutinize audience reaction to the programs. In addition, for certain programs there are contractual obligations which must be met that will not allow programs to air in the U.S. until specific dates.'' | |||
| Officially, in production order, the episode is divided into two "acts"--Act I being the first being 22 minutes, and Act II being the last being 22 minutes. | |||
| ==Synopsis== | |||
| The story opens in Kansas, 37 years in the past (1968, as the show was made in 2005). Two pixies, the Head Pixie ("HP") and his assistant Sanderson, are driving home, lamenting the failure of their last 37-year plan to take over Fairy World. Meanwhile, two ] parents, apparently nearing certain doom as their train heads up ahead where the bridge is out, send their child, Flappy Bob, to safety on a small rocket (parodying the origin of ] and his escape from ]). However, the train switched tracks to another bridge, leaving the clowns without their son. Meanwhile, HP and Sanderson find the child, and realize his potential as the catalyst to their next 37-year plan. | |||
| 37 years later, in the present day, ] and the children of Dimmsdale are destroying the town in their revelry (''Kids Just Being Kids''), when Flappy Bob appears and offers a solution in his Camp Learn-a-Torium, an overprotective and over-educational daycare center the parents of Dimmsdale can keep their children at while they enjoy the summer (''Get Flappy''). The Pixies appear to Timmy and suggest to him that the camp, and boredom and restriction in general, can be blamed solely on adults, a notion to which Timmy agrees.(''Adults Ruin Everything'') | |||
| Timmy wishes for kids to be the ruling class in the world, and after an interlude in which the Pixies delight at their plan's progress (''We're Pixies'' ''(The Pixie Rap''), Timmy reflects on life as President while ] complain that they are stuck with the chores (''Ten and In Charge''). The Pixies remind ] of the loophole that allows them God-parental custody over Flappy Bob, and point out that with their newfound power, the children of the world no longer need fairies. To make the takeover of Fairy World complete, the Pixies convince Flappy Bob to sign a contract that allows him total control over what the world considers fun, in exchange for control of Fairy World being given to the Pixies. Jorgen now has no choice but to (''Pull Back the Fairies/Jorgen's Polka'') to what used to be Fairy World. | |||
| Timmy tries to convince Flappy Bob that his current idea of fun (dull, boring and bureaucratic, by way of the Pixies) is wrong, and that his birth parents would never be proud of the way he chose in life. Timmy's plea falls on momentarily hesitant, but ultimately deaf ears as Bob signs the contract (''Where is The Fun''). | |||
| Meanwhile, back in Pixie World, the former Fairy World, Cosmo and Wanda are set to be incarcerated when they distract Jorgen (the acting investigator and warden) with an over-sweet love song (''As Long As I'm Floating With You''). As the bridge to Earth is dwindling and can only support one fairy ("There is still enough pretty color magic left for one of us to slide down the rainbow bridge! ...Wow, there wasn't a manly word in that sentence!"), Cosmo sacrifices himself so that Wanda, the more dependable of the two, can find Timmy, while he and the fairies lament the situation, and Flappy Bob doubts what he did (''Unfundamentals''). | |||
| As Bob heads to his building's furnace to burn what remains of his clown paraphernalia, he overhears HP and Sanderson laughing over their plan and the gullibility of Bob, stating that "only a clown would fall for this... a really ''dumb'' clown". Realizing he'd been duped, Flappy Bob changes his mind and tries to find a way to stop what he put into action. | |||
| Wanda finds Timmy nearly immediately, and Flappy Bob appears soon afterwards, decked out in full clown regalia. The three begin to form their plan, with Bob drawing on his business and law education in order to find a loophole while all three do their best to have fun and draw the ire of HP and Sanderson. (''Reprise Remix'') On cue, the Pixies appear and remind Bob of the contract, and Bob takes the opportunity to point out the loophole – the fact that the agreement made the world fun "as defined by Flappy Bob" himself. He declares fun to be "everything the way it should be," and the entire takeover of both Earth and Fairy World is undone. Cosmo is reunited with Timmy and Wanda again. Wanda finds Bob's birth parents, and although the Learn-a-Torium remains (now run by Flappy Bob's former assistants, Gary and Betty, and renamed "Gary and Betty's Camp Learn-a-Torium"), Timmy and the children still have the opportunity to make it fun again. (''Kids Just Being Kids Reprise'') In a black screen, HP and Sanderson are again seen peddling, thinking they should switch to a six week plan. | |||

| ==Trivia/Goofs== | |||
| {{Trivia|date=July 2007}} | |||
| *This is the first FOP musical film. | |||
| *Juandissimo, and Mama Cosma appear but have no dialogue. | |||
| *Chester is the one whom shouts "Heads down!" to the adults he's watching in the classroom. | |||
| *In the beginning scene, Baby Flappy Bob's launch from a cannon is a spoof of ]'s (and his dog Krypto's) launch from Krypton. | |||
| *A blooper from this episode: In the show, the character Flappy Bob makes a deal with the Pixies, and signs a contract with them as "Flappy." Later on his name is given on the contract as "Flappy Bob." | |||
| *The only type of music the Pixies do are rap and polka. | |||
| *Incidentally, almost an exact year after this movie aired, another ]-produced movie, which was a '']'' movie called '']'', had a story in which the main characters were also out of school. The special was advertised on Nick as being called "School's out, Ghoul's out." | |||
| *This is the third Fairly OddParents movie where Timmy almost lost his godparents for good, in this case due to kids being too happy and thus Godparents being not needed anymore, a plot point previously explored in various episodes of the show. | |||
| *During the song "Where is the Fun?" when Flappy Bob types on the calculator he types 07734. Which when typed on a calculator and turned upside down it says Hello. | |||
| *In the scene where Timmy becomes president of the United States of America, when Timmy questions whether he really is the president of the U.S.A, Cosmo says Timmy is the president of all the states except for Florida, "because they're still voting". This is a reference to various presidential elections where Florida was held back due to voting issues. | |||
| *In the Pixie rap, they state they are "strong like ]", a reference to the star of the "]". | |||
| * In the beginning when "Kids Just Being Kids" is sung, in Fairy World, a parody of the New Years Ball was seen, except it was a wand that was dropped when the clock struck 3:00 P.M.. | |||
| * When Ben Stein (voice of all the Pixies) heard about the musical, he was so happy he was going to sing. However, rap artists preformed the Pixie's solo song. | |||
| *In "We're Pixies" Redman's catchpharse "R-r-r-r" is heard in the beginning of the song if you listen closly. | |||
| *Method Man and Redman are actually the performers on "We're Pixies". | |||
| *You can see that Sanderson's ] occasionally disappears. | |||
| *When Timmy says he had "cool pens", they were in a cup, which had a likeness of the flag of ]. | |||
| *When Flappy suppressed his clown instincts and said such things as "circus peanuts!" and "confetti!", this bore a likeness to Vlad Masters and his habit of shouting the names of snack foods when he is upset. Incidentally, both ] and ] are produced by Butch Hartman. | |||
| *This episode marks Timmy's third last day of school, the first and second being "Timvisible" and "Shelf Life", respectably. | |||
| *Goof:When the pixies start to take over Fairy world, the rainbow bridge is shrinking. However when Cosmo and Wanda are talking, the bridge becomes slightly larger as the shots change. | |||
| *Goof:The picture that Flappy's parents gave Flappy had Flappy's dad on the left, Flappy's mom on the right, and baby Flappy in the middle. However, towards the end of the movie, when Flappy takes out the picture, dad is on the right, mom is on the left, and Flappy is no longer in it. | |||
