Kim, Jim, Tim and Mr. Dr. Possible (oh, and Ron) pay a visit to the Lazy C Ranch in Montana. It's inhabited by Slim Possible (uh...huh) and his daughter Joss, who idolizes her cousin. Drakken is upset that he's not been invited to the Research Roundup at the Crooked D Ranch, so (with the help of his aptly-titled 'silly hats') he decides to level the field a bit by turning the geniuses into idiots.

I found this episode to be good, but not remarkable. I will say this: if you've always wanted to see Kim and Shego duke it out on horseback, you've come to the right place. Drakken's strangling of the English language and his inability to understand Old West slang were both very funny. I liked the scenes between Slim and Squirt...uh, Mr. Dr. P. (Nice work by Gary Cole as Slim, BTW.), though Squirt did figure out the how and why of Drakken's plan a bit too easily.

I got kind of a 'been there, done that' vibe from Joss, though her encyclopedic knowledge of Kim's missions was hilariously frightening, and her delineation of Ron's psychology just about made up for him being wasted in the rest of the episode.

This town ain't big enough for the two of us, but it's roomy enough for this "Showdown".
