| Dad's refusal to buy Kim a Club Banana jacket sends her to Bueno
Nacho -- this time as an employee. But when Ron (whom she's dragged
along) proves to be a fast food genius, Kim must grapple with both a
magma-mad Drakken (plotting from the heart of a giant cheese wheel),
and the possibility that her goofy sidekick might just be better
than her at something. |

| Villains: Dr. Drakken & Shego
Animation Production by: Rough Draft Korea Co., Ltd.
One of five first season episodes altered post-release to include songs from the then-upcoming "KP" soundtrack. In this case: Tony Phillips' "Call Me, Beep Me" remix and Angela Michael's "I'm Ready".
Though this episode is first in production order, chronologicaly the events of this episode take place after those of "Tick-Tick-Tick."
In this episode Ron Stoppable invents the naco.
Wade gives Kim her grappling-hook hairdryer in this episode.
Club Banana is first mentioned in this episode.
9 shots from this episode are used in the KP theme song.
The second time we see Kim use the Puppy Dog Pout and it's given it's name in this episode. |

Drill Work: Mother of pearl, man! You scared me half to death.
Drakken: Only half?
(Monorail passes section of "World's Biggest Cheese Wheel" with slice missing)
Tour Guide: Hey, look. Who cut the cheese?
(Tour group chuckles)
Tour Guide: I know, I know.
Wade: Kim, I have bad news.
Kim: No kidding. I can not afford this jacket.
Wade: I know. I pulled up your bank account -- you're broke. But that's not the bad news.
Kim: Apparently, the bad news is that my friend who runs my website has been hacking into my account.
(Kim pursues Shego down a snowy slope)
Kim: Nice jacket! Club Banana?
Shego: The very latest!
Kim: Get a lifestyle, Shego; green is the new black.
Shego: And this advice comes to us from a fashion "don't" in fleece.
Kim: So... Daddy. What do you think of this jacket? For me. Just because.
Dad: Uh, cost-to-value ratio aside, Kimmy, don't you already have a functioning coat?
Kim: It's a good thing fashion sense isn't genetic! My jacket's from last season. It's red!
Kim: Didn't you say red was "the new black"?
Dad: Red's dead, Dad.
Kim: A job? (gags) At Bueno Nacho?
Dad: Now, that's the way forward!
Kim: Between a rocket scientist and a brain surgeon, the best idea you people can come up with is minimum wage?!
Kim: What are you eating?
Ron: Taco meets nacho. I call it: The "naco".
Kim: I call it gross beyond reason.
Kim: Y'know, Ron, restaurants don't exactly welcome pets.
Ron: Rufus isn't a pet, he's family.
Kim: The rodent family...
Kim: Ho-la, a-mi-go!
Ned: Your bilingual wiles will hold no sway with me, Miss Possible; I am management.
Ron: Is that a clip-on tie, Ned?
Ned: (clipping and unclipping) For quick removal in the event of a grease fire.
(Ned distributes a thick tome)
Ned: Bueno Nacho "S.O.P."
Kim: Excuse me?
Ned: Standard Operating Procedure! Learn them, know them, live them!
Kim: (Clutching catalogue clipping, and singing) Two weeks to jack-et! Two weeks to jack-et!
Kim: (Relegated to "cheese duty") I can get through this... Two weeks to jacket. Two weeks to jacket.
Ned: Playing video games on the job is *not* "S.O.P"! I'm docking your pay an hour!
Kim: Two weeks -- and one hour -- to jacket.
Kim: Hello! Kim to Ron! You didn't even want this job!
Ron: I didn't know *what* I wanted, Kim. I was lost, adrift in the wilderness. But that was then. Now, I belong. I belong to Bueno Nacho!
(Ron bursts through Nacho's double doors)
Ron: ¡Yo amo este lugar!
(Rufus bursts from his pocket)
Rufus: ¡Si!
Ron: Fifty-eight, your order's great! Fifty-nine, lookin' fine! Sixty--
(microphone feedback)
Ron: Your food's ready.
Mom: (on phone) I need a suture, here.
Kim: Mom... Do you have me on speaker?
Mom: Sorry, honey. (over drilling) I've got both hands in a 62-year-old male's temporal lobe.
Kim: (growling) Mom...!
Mom: Gotta go, honey! See you at dinner. Dad's picking up nacos!
(Inside giant cheese wheel)
Kim: Okay... Points for bizarre hiding place.
Shego: (wearing green-leather jacket) Welcome, Kimmy. May I take your coat?
Kim: You already did. Don't worry, it'll look better on me.
Ron: (of Drakken's "Magmachine") That... would be so cool... if it wasn't gonna hurt us.
Drakken: Eat magma, Milwaukee! ... Why isn't Milwaukee eating magma? Please, do not tell me that this place is actually made of cheese! I thought it was a cheese-covered building!
Tour Guide: Oh, golly, no. You'd be surprised-- (overcome by wave of melted cheese)
Drakken (impatiently): SHEGO, I'M STILL WAITING!
Shego: So, read a magazine, I'm working.
Drakken (to Kim): Excuse me, I have to go make a scene.
Kim: Funky... (sniffs cheese) A cheese-covered building.
Tour Guide: Many people assume that this is a cheese-covered building. In fact, this marvel of dairy product architecture is 100% pure Wisconsin Swiss.
Ron: Step it up, Ned, these customers have been waiting for over 30 seconds! 33... 34... ¡Ándale!
Ned (angrily handing the customers in the car their order): Here! Have a muy bueno day.
Dr. Drakken: Awww, that's so sweet. Friends again... Just in time to be fried in magma!
Ron: Remind me again why I rushed over?
Kim (of Club Banana jacket): I love it! Thanks.
(Ned walks in wearing same jacket)
Kim: Ned?
Ron: Dude, what are you wearing?
Kim: Somebody left this picture over the cheese machine -- and I just had to have it! Viva me!
(Ned walks off, grinning)
Ron: Exchange it?
Kim: Oh, yeah.
Ron: Buenos noches, Bueno Nacho.
Ron (at the controls of the magma drill): Rufus, this is a precision instrument -- incredibly complex. Better mess with everything.
Kim and Ron: Sometimes I feel like I don't even know you anymore.
Kim (To Rufus): Goood little naked mole-rat.
Drakken: Any second now I will strike swiftly and without mercy.
Shego: Uh... Actually, make it more like... half hour?
(Rufus picks up one of the dog biscuits Shego has thrown at the dog sled team)
Ron: Don't eat it, Rufus! It could be--
(Rufus shoves the biscuit into Ron's mouth)
Ron: Mmm. Bacon-y.
Kim+Ron: Be careful!
Kim: Jynx, you owe me a soda!
Kim: Ron, you're supposed to be looking for signs of Drakken.
Ron: Okay. That looks suspicious to me.
Kim: Thank you, Captain Obvious, keep your eyes open for any...
Shego: Bye bye.
Kim: You're so conceded.
Drakken: I'll take that as a complement.
Ron: Shego. The mad scientist's mad assistant.
(Drakken sees Kim running past)
Drakken: They've escaped!
Shego: (sarcastic) No, really?
Ron: Kim, I'm snowblind!
Ron: I call it: Bad Guy con Queso.

When asked to buy Kim a new jacket, Mr. Possible tells a story of when he applied to the University for funding. In the story, he says that money is made of paper, and paper comes from trees, so money does grow on trees. In fact, dollar bills are 75% cotton, 25% linen, and not made from normal paper from trees.
Animation Goof: At breakfast, Kim's right forearm passes *through* her ear -- twice -- as she explains the difference between her paternally-described "functional coat" and the "Club Banana" jacket she currently desires (the former's from last season -- and red!).
Animation Goof?: Before rappelling down a wall of cheese, Kim fires her recently-acquired grappling gun. The prongs of its hook point "in", toward the line, as she fires, but conveniently point "out" as they sink into Wisconsin Swiss.
^-- Incorrectly considered a goof: Though the transformation takes place off-screen in this episode, "Coach Possible" clearly depicts the prongs' rotation in mid-flight.
Animation Goof: This one's a bit technical. As Ned grasps the cardboard nacho tray, his thumb passes *under* the nacho cheese, but *over* the tortilla chips that obscure it. The result is this rather odd-looking sequence of images.
When Drakken has Kim held captive and yells to Shego about when the laser drill will hit magma, his scar jumps from under his right eye to its usual place under his left eye.
As a lifelong resident of Wisconsin, I can assure you that I've never heard of "Wisconsin Swiss" that the tour guide says the building is made of. If they wanted accuracy the building should have been Cheddar cheese, but then Kim wouldn't have been able to use the holes for access.
When Drakken is on his air powered elevator and standing at the magmachine, for a split second the screen shows Shego standing with him.
Drakken, while stealing the laser drill, says 'Well done Shego - Phase 1 is complete.' Later on, Kim tells him that his plan is 'to drill through to the magma beneath the Earth's crust,' and Drakken says 'Well - that's phase 1'. Neh?
The timer on the bomb must slow down during Drakken's line. If you countdown along with the bomb, you'll see that it should have detonated when Kim jumped onto it.
In other countries where Kim Possible is aired, the money is made of a thick paper, so this might have been used to make the show a little neutral when it came to the national references.
If it's warm enough in Middleton for Kim to wear a tank top, why would Kim need a new jacket? Even if she does buy the jacket now, then wears it when it gets cold out, the outfit wouldn't be popular anymore. A.k.a. just another "pink poof."
^-- Kim spends so much time out of town, odds are she'd still get plenty of use out of the jacket.
How would Ned hear Wade from Ron's earpiece before he says something like, "...You have a choice to make- be the manager or the goofy sidekick." Ron is about 5 feet away from Ned.
Actually, when Ned says "you have a choice", you can clearly see that he has the same head piece. And from my knowledge, they usually are set on the same channel so Ned can head Wade talking.
Couldn't Ron simply have taken a break or something when Kim needed him? And anyway, the head honchos (no pun intended) might not have minded if it meant that Wisconsin, a possible place for a chain to continue, would have stayed in existence.
Captioning error: When Kim is telling Rufus ''Goood little naked mole rat'' for pushing the cheese button, the captions say ''Good little naked mall rat''.
When Kim says "Hello, earth to Ron", the logo in her shoe is missing (this is also apparent later as Ron and Kim are arguing about going to Wisconsin)
According to the book version of this episode, Kim created her website at the beginning of her sophomore year, but she created her website when she was 12, remember?
Kim's upper lip dissapears twice in this episode. First, after Ron says "Don't worry Kim, I'm here to save the day". Second, on the shot of Kim and Ron when Drakken activates the lazer drill.
When Ned first speaks, one of the triangles on his left sleeve disapears several times.
Actually, "Bueno Nacho" is not a correct phrase, the correct phrase is "Buen Nacho"(how is called in the latinamerican version). It's because some adjetives are cut in some cases (Bueno-Buen or Santo-San),when the words sounds cacophonic. In this case because both words end with "o" |

Did You Notice?: Popular Song
Kim's little chant ("Two weeks to jacket") is to the same rhythm as Drakken's "Who wants to build a robot tick".
Analysis of Analysis
As both are generically sing-song, the similarity may well be incidental. Or not. Note, though, that Drakken's ditty differs dramatically in metre.
Green as the "new black"
Ironic, isn't it, that Shego, of all people, should require this tip?
DYN
One character I've noticed seems to pop up randomly. In this episode he sits near Ron on the monorail at the cheese building. He's also appeared on "Life with Mr. Jiggy," as well as the house where Ron is captured by Killagan. ("The beard doesn't go with the girl costume") He's probably appeared elsewhere.
DYN #3
At several points during the episode (most notably when Kim says "Green leather. Shego") it is clear that Kim's right eye (our POV) is lower than her left.
Did you see???
As Ron laughs nervously(after Shego's "Hi! Is that tie clip-on?) speech, he *blushes* . A slight reddish/orange-ish hue spreads across the bridge of his nose. You'll need to watch closely to see it, though.
Kim: It's criminal!
This is the first line of the series.
Distraction
In the final showdown inside the Cheese Wheel, Kim acts as the distraction by fighting Shego while Ron destroys Drakken's scheme with the laser drill.
RE: Kim: It's criminal!
This is also the first line in the "Call Me, Beep Me" remix.
DYN? #5
There are a total of eight scenes in this episode use in the KP opening theme song. 1st: Kim glaring after Shego says that she's a step ahead. 2nd: Kim freefalling over the Cheese Wheel. 3rd: Drakken laughing as the magmachine fills up. 4th: Kim snowboarding over a cliff. 5th: Shego jest before she says, "may I take your coat." 6th: Mrs. Dr. P giving Kim a kiss. 7th: Ron taking Bueno Nacho orders from Kim. 8th: Shego's snowmobile exploding.
RE: DYN? #5
Actually(between shots 2 & 3, I think) there's one more: The shot of the laser-drill when Kim first enters the Cheese Wheel. It's really hard to catch, though(pay attention to the lower right hand corner when Kim and Ron running is shown in the KP opening theme song). And that makes 9.
Shawn lives in Wisconsin?
When Ron asks, "Is this some kind of cheese-covered building?" there's a kid sitting in front of him that bares a striking resemblance to his cousin Shawn.
Re:Re: Kim: It's Criminal!
Actually, in the Call Me, Beep Me remix Kim says "This is criminal!" But in the episode she does say "It's criminal!"

Building: The Building of Cheese
In Wisconsin there's a building that LOOKS like cheese.
Place: Bueno Nacho is Taco Bell!
The K/R favorite place to eat is just like Taco Bell. More Info
Regarding: The Above
"Just like" may be a bit strong, but, as Mexican fast food chains, they're certainly similar. And it may be worth noting that Eddie Deezen, who plays Ned, also voiced "Nacho" the cat in series of animated, kid-targeted TV commercials for "the Bell" in the mid-90's ("Bong!").
Re: Regarding the Above
I find that Disney does a good job when voice-casting. For instance, Tom Kane (Monty Fiske/Monkey Fist) plays a chimpanzee named Darwin (an irony in itself) on "The Wild Thornberrys". Also, Wendie Malick (Elsa Kleeg) plays a fashion expert on "Just Shoot Me".
Place: Club Banana
This might be a play off of the clothing store called "Banana Republic".
Place: Club Banana
Or it could also be a reference to a clothing store in Canada called 'Old Navy'.
Drakken: Activate the Magmachine!
This prop looks a lot like Lord Krang's Tecnodrome(from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
