| Villains: Aviarius and Shego & Dr. Drakken
Animation Production by: Starburst Animation Co., Ltd
Go City was originally supposed to be Chicago, but was later changed to be a fictional city.
Shego was a member of Team Go-a superhero team-in the past.
This is also the first episode to mostly be about Shego.
Hego claims the Naco didn't test well in Go City. Ha! ONLY in Go City, judging by the events of 'Ron Millionare'.
First time Bonnie appears, but doesn't have any lines. (Also second time for Monique)
Will Friedle, who voices Ron, used to star on "Boy Meets World" with Ben Savage, brother of Fred Savage (Wego), who even appeared in one episode of BMW. |

Ron: (of Shego) Has she always been this cranky?
Hego & Mego: Oh yeah.
Shego: I am EVIL! Have I made myself clear?
Hego: Oh, come on! You know the drill, use your Go Team Glow!
Mego: I don't have my Go Team Glow anymore, you big dolt!
Aviarius: Condor, ATTACK!
Hego: I've found that a long-distance relationship with a foe never works. It's a strain on everyone.
Kim: How did you defeat Aviarius in the past?
Hego: Team work. Or, as I like to call it: "Go-operation!"
Ron: (fake laugh) Good one! Yeah! (aside) I'm starting to see why Shego split.
Hego: Looks like this bird is ready for his cage! (hearty laugh)
Aviarius: Do you have to say that every time you capture me?
Middleton High Sign: "Vegan club meating canceled" (get it? MEATing?)
Drakken: You *wanted* your brothers to get their powers back. You don't really have it in you to betray them.
Shego: Are you saying that I am going soft?
Drakken: As a marshmallow.
Kim: You've got a giant viewscreen that your arch-foe can appear on whenever he wants. He talks to you... you talk to him. You don't think...?
Hego: ...that he could use that technology to spy on us while we were planning our heroic efforts! Blast! The fiend. How come no one ever mentioned this before?
Shego: Because it was obvious?
Kim: (wrestling giant condor) I hope you're not one of the endangered ones.
Drakken: Shego, I take it back! You're not a softie! SHEGO!
Drakken: Kim Possible! Since when do you glow?
Kim: I've got a website and I'm not afraid to use it.
Wade: Kim, is Shego in your kitchen?
Shego: Just do your computer thing, Nerdlinger.
Drakken: I believe some introductions are in order here.
Ron:(shaking his hand): I'm Ron Stoppable. We've met before, but you never seem to remember my name.
Kim(spinning through rock): Ooh! You know...I do not recommend that.
Mego: See. Shrinking comes in handy.
Hego: Super-strength is so much better.
Aviarius: Release the Flamingo of Doom!
Shego: Say what?
Kim: Shego! I thought we were in this together!
Shego: Oh, come on! Don't you know me better by now? I mean, (laughs) Seriously.
Aviarius: Oh! I could have used all the powers at once?!
Ron: I'm happy to be the distraction.
Doctor Drakken:(in a giant, menacing robot) Kim Possible's computer kid told me how you were at the mercy of a villain. Where is this Aviarius?
Aviarius (holding up Ron): Here he is.
Ron: Dude, Drakken knows who I am.
Drakken: Yes. The name escapes me, but I do know the air of buffoonery.
Hego: Perhaps you have surmised I am no ordinary fast food manager.
Ron: Duh! You're the man who tried to kill the naco.
Ron: The special orders can get as wild as we want! There's no one to judge us.
Hego: Is his name Stoppable?
Kim: You've heard of him?
Hego: Corporate sent out a memo. There are some special procedures I'm supposed to implement at this point.
Ron: That explains alot! Though...not everything.
Kim: Ron! Drop the naco thing.
Kim: Does the name Shego ring a bell?
Hego: You know of my sister?
Ron: Oh yeah. We're on a first name basis. Actually, does she HAVE a last name?
Hego: The more we fought Evil, the more Shego liked it.
Ron: The fighting?
Kim: The Evil.
Shego: Sucka!
Aviarius: It is I, Aviarius, and revenge will be mine!
Ron: Revenge...?
Kim: I don't even know this guy.
Mr. Possible: You know how I feel about circus folk.
Kim: Actually, they're a team of superheros. Their arch-foe is out for revenge, and--
Ron: Sir, we'll get them back to the circus, pronto.
Dad: See that you do, Ronald.
Hego: Aviarius!
Kim: You know him?
Hego: Uh... No! He just said his name a lot.
Ron: He did, didn't he?
Shego: Need a little help?
Kim: Are you offering?
Shego: All right, look, I just don't want to lose to a giant flamingo, okay?
Kim: You hit him high...
Shego: ...and you hit him low!
Aviarius: You ladies talk too much!
Shego: Okay, let me get this straight. Possible and I are the only ones with power?
Ron: Ah, what about the power of imagination? I believe we all have that.
Hego: That's true. I'm starting to like this fella. He's a positive thinker.
Shego: And you people wonder why I quit?
Hego: (talking to Shego) You may be a cranky smart-mouth, prone to excessive violence, but deep down, you are still a member of Team Go. A Hero.
Aviarius: Soon, the powers of Team Go will be mine. At long last, control of Go City will be mine! And after so many years, vengaence will be mine!
Wego 2: Mine, mine, mine.
Wego 1: He sounds like Mego.
Ron: (to Mego) Purple, purple...Uh, does your power involve bruising in some way?
Mego: I can't believe I lost my powers. You have no idea how horrible it is. How empty I feel.
Hego: Actually, Mego, I do know. I, too, lost my powers.
Mego: Uh, Hego, let's focus here-on me?

On the sidewalk, before the theme song, the bottom of Ron's shirt is red.
Ron's gloves are missing when the hummingbirds are released, and again when Rufus slams into his face.
The black that tops Shego's collar is missing for most, if not all, of this episode.
When it shows the whole group inside the jet as it rises up through the tower, Ron has no gloves on.
When Kim shot her grappler around The Flamingo of Doom, Kim's shade of lipstick is red. But when she lands, her lipstick is once again orange.
Changed Premise: We discover that Shego's glowing hands are not the result of "clawed gloves that shoot out destructive rays" as reported on Kim's website at DisneyChannel.com, but are in fact super powers bestowed by the multicolor meteorite that gave the Go Team their powers.
In the Battle with Aviarius kim fires her grappling hook, the hook looks like sort of spear shape. Then in the next frame the spear returns to the familiar grappling hook.
Aviarius says "I could have used all of the powers at once?!" Well he was, he was multipling and shrinking and stuff all at once, just like Shego.
When Kim and Shego fall on the floor after Aviarius drains their powers, the colours on Shego's suit are reversed.
The button on Shego's belt turns green for about two frames after she says, "Just do your computer thing, Nerd Linger."
In 'October 31st', Dr. Possible saw Shego, so why doesn't he recognize her now?
How could Shego not know she missed her own brother's birthday? Or did she do this deliberately? (If that's the case, Shego is just being Shego)
I know that it's a rule that most cartoon characters have to wear the same clothes every day, but when Kim and Ron are at school, they're wearing the same clothes they wore on their visit to Go City. Are they doing what they did in Season 1-wearing the same clothes two days in a row? Or did the whole thing happen in one day?
How could Drakken and Shego have been partners for three years without Drakken knowing Shego's secret?
Nitpick: How could Aviarius talk to Hego, Mego, Kim and Ron on the giant viewscreen in the Go Tower if he doesn't have a screen or a camera visible to actually see them and be able to talk back?
When Kim forces Condor to crash, the Salsa Parade is destroyed. However, when Avarius leaves, the Salsa Parade is still intact (on the left side of the screen).
^-- About the grappling hook being shaped like a spear: It was actually animation reused from "Mind Games".
When the camera zooms in on Kim's reaction to the Giant Condor's entrance, her hair is patted on the wrong side.
Ron seems shocked and apalled that wraps are the future of Bueno Nacho, yet the concept has always been a staple of Mexican-style fast food.
When Shego throws her green whatever stuff at Hego her brothers Mego and the twins say "Super bad!" "Yeah Tottally Evil!" "Evil!" Mego has one of the twins voices and one of the twins has Mego's voice.

DYN? #1
Shego reads an old issue of "Villain's Digest" (first seen in "Two to Tutor").
Drakken loves Shego
Drakken shows more signs that he loves Shego by saying that he'll always be there for her and using a robot to come to her rescue when Wade tells him what's going on.
[ ^-- He also shows signs he thinks of her as a daughter ("As long as you're going to live under my roof, you'll follow my rules", "I do think of us as a kind of evil family", etc.). ]
DYN? #2
Shego is the only member of Team Go who doesn't wear an eye mask.
They got his (phone) number
Everyone seems to know how to get in touch with Wade. Monique called him in "October 31st", Barkin called him in "Downhill", and Drakken, of all people, called him in this episode. Probably just cartoon convienience I know, but it's nice to know Kim and Ron aren't the only ones who need Wade :)
Analysis of "They Got His Number."
First, Wade contacted Drakken to inform him that Shego was in danger, not vice versa. Also, getting in touch with Wade wouldn't be that hard. It's well known by all that Wade runs Kim's website. King Wallace knew in "Royal Pain." So all one would need to do to contact Wade is post on Kim's site. Wade could provide additional info, like home or cell phone from there.
DYN? #3
This episode marks the first time Kim and Ron visit a fictional city (Go City).
DYN? #4
Kim and Rufus' reactions to Condor's entrance at the beginning of the episode are lifted directly from "Kimitation Nation" when she, Ron, Rufus and Monique first see the Bonnie clones.
The Go Teams names...
Each member of Team Go has a name that is appropriate to their personality/place in the team... Hego--the manly man member Shego--the only female member Mego--the selfish jerk member Wego--the "twin" members that are for all intents and purposes, a single entity...
DYN? #5
Just like Shego's skin takes on her respective color, Mego's skin is tinted purple, his respective color.
This is so sweet...
Did Kim say something bad about her brothers in a good way to someone espically to Shego "I have twin brothers and they're annoying sometimes but you can't just give up on them."
symbolism
Each Go Team member represents a Kim team member Shego-Kim-both strong fighters Hego-Ron-uh..not that smart Wego-Jim/Tim, twins obviously Mego-Wade-sort of a loner, kind of kooky
Kind of sounds like...
The music for some of the Team Go scenes sounds like the "Go, Go, Power Rangers!" song.
Kim: (to Wade) We're talking about Shego. But I've got to say-it was pretty easy
As a matter of fact, it was TOO easy. Normally, Shego would've made it hard for Kim to get the staff back. She would've kept her left hand (the hand with the staff in it) tightly clenched and she would've lit up one of her hands to prevent Kim from coming closer. So could this mean that Shego was either going to throw it so it would break-or that she was ALLOWING Kim to get it away from her?
Bonding
During the entire battle with Aviarius, you can sense bonding between Kim and Shego.
DYN?
Don't you think the inside of Go Mountain looks a lot like the inside of the Tempus Simia temple from 'A Sitch in Time'?
No Lines
This is the second time Monique apears in an episode but has no lines.
RE: DYN? #3
Not really. The pre-teen Kim and Ron visit Upperton in A Sitch in Time 2: Past.
Hold the phone...
When Shego said, "Or I could have all the powers," the words sounded rather forced. Also, haven't you wondered why Shego only used her brothers' powers on Kim and NOT on her brothers? Or why she waited so long to finally tell Hego about Drakken?
DYN? #6
The animation of Kim firing the grappler with the hook being spear shaped was reused from "Mind Games".

Character: Hego
Hego (when dressed normally) bears a striking resemblance to Superman's alter-ego Clark Kent.
Ron: Ah, Go City. If you can make it here, well, then... y'know, you've... made it here. Which is pretty good!
Ron spoofs the popular Frank Sinatra song "New York, New York": "If I can make it there / I'll make it anywhere!"
None: Go Tower
The Go Tower is very similar to the Fantastic Four tower. Right down to the special access lock.
Ron: Were you, like, some kind of fire guy?
Ron references the Fantastic Four superhero Johnny Storm, aka The Human Torch.
Character: Aviarius
The villain Aviarius is very similar to the Spider-man villain The Vulture.
None: Avarius commanding his bird
Very similar to the way the super-hero Birdman used to command his eagle.
Ron: That is the second largest flamingo I have ever seen!
none: none
Actually, Go Tower bears more resemblence to the "T" shaped tower utilized by the Teen Titans, rather than the old tower once used by the Fantastic Four. For instance, Go Tower, like the one used by the Titans, is on a small island in the middle of the bay, rather than in the middle of the city, as both the Baxter Building and Four Freedoms Plaza (both used by the Fantastic Four) were.
Hego: "Those powers are a great responsibility."
This bears strong resemblance to the classic line from Amazing Fantasy #15 (The first appearance of Spider-Man) and subsequently repeated in several Spider-Man issues and the Spider-Man movie, first coined by the great Stan Lee, "With Great Power must come...Great Responsibility."
Character: Wego
Wego's power is very similar to X-Factor's "Mutiple Man"'s power.
Kim: [spinning through rock]: Ooh! You know...I do not recommend that.
A dig at Superman, who uses the same method of tunneling through rock but never seems to get dizzy.
None: None
Mego's powers are excactly the same as Giant/Antman of the Avengers.
none: none
Team Go is in fact a reference to many superhero teams of the past, but perhaps the most prominent are the Power Pack (a group of siblings fighting crime with alien-granted powers) and the various Japanese sentai teams with their color coded outfits, and (more often then not) single female member.
Kim: Wrapping up the flamingo's legs
Kim's attempt to trip the Flamingo of Doom by wrapping up its legs with her grappling hook is the third time this series has made this allusion to Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (and the first time it has failed to work).
Character: Mego
Mego was also a toy company, making 8" and 12" posable action figures which ran from 1971-1982.
Ron: That is the second largest flamingo I have ever seen!
Actually, this is a reference to the old TV series "Get Smart," in which the line "That's the second biggest [i]whatever[/i] I've ever seen" was one of Maxwell Smart's (Don Adams) trademark lines.
None: The Team Go color scheme
The colors of Team Go (Red, blue, purple and green) are the trademark colors of the playstation game console and often featured in their commercials.
Aviarius: "Release the... Flamingo of Doom!"
The villain Aviarius has many similarities to the title character from the short-lived (but highly praised) Nickelodeon series, "Invader Zim". Both characters are played by Richard Horvitz and both characters sound and act very much alike. It's almost as if Zim were playing the role of The Vulture from Spider-man. The biggest clue that Avarius is some kind of tribute to Zim is when Aviarius refers to the flamingo as a "Flamingo of Doom." The word "doom" was used excessively in the "Invader Zim" series, especially the first episode.
