| S'not funny at all when Kim catches a cold and can't catch
Drakken. Fortunately, germs pick noses, not sides, and soon both
villains and heroes alike have to call in sick. |

Villains: Dr. Drakken & Shego & Duff Killigan & Hank Perkins
Animation Production by: Starburst Animation Co., Ltd
Half-length (11-minute) episode. First aired with "The Truth Hurts".
A total of ten KP villians appear in this episode. |
|
Ron (with a head cold): We're dooned.
Kim: We're what?
Ron: Dooned, DOONED!!
Killigan: (watching soap) Are ye daft, man? Just 'coz ye have her brain in yer head, (chokes up) it doesn't mean ye can't love her!
Ron: I hate irony.
Drakken: Some were born to lead, and some--
Killigan: And some were born to yap yap yap!
Ron (of Shego): Wow! You look green... I mean, y'know, greener.
Ron: I just heard a way freakish security alarm go off. It sounded like: chu-chu-chu!
Kim: That was me, I'm sneezing.
Ron: Where's the dragon?
Ron: Hey, KP, how we feelin' today?
Kim: I can't breed through my node.
Ron: Okay, yeah, no idea what you just said.
Shego: Looks like somebody's been drinking lots of fluids... and retaining every ounce!
Kim: My mom is way cranked that I went out sick.
Mrs. P (yelling off-screen): "Cranked" is putting it mildly!
Ron(answering phone): Ron's crib. Hello? who dis?
Kim(over the phone): Hey Ron, it's me!
Ron: Grandma?
Kim: I gotta know. What was this X thing designed to do, anyway?
Scientists: Cure the common cold.
Ron: I hate irony.
Kim: Drakken!
Ron: (looking at the trash can) Drag can?
Dr Drakken: (Sounding hurt) What about the plan? I drew it myself.
Kim: (Shego's on top of her.) I need to sneeze.
Shego: What?
Kim: I need to cover my nose.
Shego: Nice try, Kimmie. (Kim sneezes on Shego's face.) Oh that was a low blow. |

| When Ron walks up the stairs into Kim's room, the black stripe at the bottom of his shirt is missing. It returns in the next shot.
Why would the two scientists invent a cure for the common cold if Ron/Rufus invented one in 'Naked Genius'?
When Shego called in sick it looked like she was flesh colored instead of greenish/paleish.
^-- Though Ron and Rufus invent the cure for the common cold the scientists managed to put it into a ray format. Though Ron/Rufus might have developed the theory they didn't have the technology to build anything.
Response to the whole Shego's skin thing: Well, that kind of makes sense, considering she's usually greenish-palish (is palish a word?). Therefore, since flesh-colored is normal for most people and green is sickly, it would be the reverse for her. Maybe. Kind of. (although Ron's remark about her being greener then normal made nooooo sense whatsoever)
I don't see why Drakken couldn't have used one of his henchmen to replace Shego while she was sick.
Why would Ron stay at Kim's house while he was sick? Shouldn't he be at his own house?
Response to Drakken's henchmen: Do you honestly think Drakken would've trusted one of his goons to capture Ray X?
--^Good point, but that reminds me-what happend to his henchmen anyway? Did Drakken decide to narrow it down to just him and Shego?
Re: Shego's Skin She could have gotten paler from lack of fluids(her skin is normally a greenish olive, thereby turning almost flesh-toned with a touch of green when it's pale), then gotten flushed with fever(most of us turn redder, in her case, she turns greener, hence Ron's remark) Problem solved!
Why would Drakken choose Duff Killigan to be his temporary sidekick? Considering how long he can hold a grudge, wouldn't he still be mad at Killigan for nearly killing Shego in 'October 31st'?
Nitpick: Why would Ron cover his eyes when Kim was dressing/undressing if she was behind one of those screen things?

DYN: TV stars
The few seconds of the soap opera we see on Killigan's TV are from the movie Ron watches in "Grudge Match".
Re: DYN: TV stars
Believe it or not, they even kept a pan out that shows the edge of the movie screen (though wisely without the backs of patrons' heads in the foreground). In a cheatsie sort of way, this at least offers the possibile explanation that the soap's (unseen) stars were playing out a scene set in a theatre.
Searching for a new villain sidekick
The villains that appear on the screen while Drakken searches for a new villain sidekick to take Shego's place when she gets sick are Monkey Fist, a Bebe, Senor Senior Senior, Gill, DNAmy, Senor Senior Junior and Duff Killigan.
Painful Memories
When Drakken stops at DNAmy's picture, he shudders and says "Never again". That's an obvious reference to "Partners", which ended with DNAmy breaking Drakken's heart.
Care
This is the first time we see Kim care that her brothers are missing.
TV Show with switched brains hints at Mind Games
The TV Show that Drakken,Killigan,KP, and Ron were watching showed a couple with their minds swapped. This is exactly like in Mind Games, except KP and Ron are best friends and not lovers.
Re: Care
This is also the first time we see Kim care if Shego catches her cold.
This is Interesting...
Professor Dementor and Motor Ed are the only "muli-episode" villains that don't appear in this episode.
DYN#2
That when got sick, he was staying at Kim's house. Shouldn't he had been in own bed at home? Maybe his was too sick to be taken home or something.
RE: DYN#2
In "AsiT" we find out that Mr. Stoppable has allergies, which get worse when you're sick(trust me, I have asthma). Maybe Ron decided to stay at the Possible home to keep his dad from getting sick.
DYN?3 Prelude to So The Drama
When Kim's sick and has to change into her mission clothes, Ron remains in the room. However, he closes his eyes and turns his head as Kim changes. He does the same thing in So The Drama. Obviously, he respects Kim not to try and peep on her and Kim trusts Ron enough to change in front of him.

Drakken: I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it!
Taken, word-for-word, from the lyrics to The Pointer Sisters' "I'm So Excited".
