Kim Possible Season #1 Episode #1-2

Kim Possible

Season #1
Episode #1 – Crush – World-saving cheerleader Kim Possible can do anything… Except ask Josh Mankey to the school dance. Kim tries to overcome Drakken’s scheme to create a giant robot AND her fear of asking her crush, Josh Mankey, to the big school dance. Kim has developed a crush on Josh Mankey, a creative artist-type student at her school. She wants to invite him to a school dance, but keeps balking when she’s alone with him. Meanwhile, Dr. Drakken and his new sidekick, Shego, have stolen robotic technology from Japanese toy mogul Nakasumi to build a doomsday robot. With Wade’s help, Kim and Ron find Drakken and destroy his new robot. Kim finally builds up the nerve to ask Josh to the dance.

Episode #1: Crush
The day begins with Ron searching his locker for Rufus. After Rufus is found, Ron notices Kim staring across the hallway, enraptured. As Ron turns around, he sees that it is Josh Mankey that Kim is staring at. Neither he or Rufus are impressed by Josh.
Kim approaches Josh but is unable to talk to him and just ends up rambling. Kim then announces her intentions to Ron about wanting to ask Josh to the Spirit Week Dance. Ron responds stating that won’t Josh feel weird going with them, as they always go together. Kim responds saying that’s as friends and this time she wants a date. Ron announces then he will also bring a date to the dance. Wade calls Kim to inform here of a situation in Tokyo involving her arch nemesis Dr. Drakken. Kim and Ron then hitch a ride with Britina to Tokyo and on the flight Ron makes his first failed attempt at getting a date for the dance.
Upon arriving in Tokyo Kim and Ron are introduced to Nakasumi San and informed that his factory has been taken over and that it’s two workers are trapped inside. As Kim and Ron infiltrate the factory Ron comes to the conclusion that Drakken is trying to steal Christmas, Kim is doubtful and convinced it’s a take over the world plot. Kim and Ron locate the hostages and Kim gives Ron the Kimmunicator so he can distract Drakken while she frees the hostages. Ron’s distraction works and Kim is able to free both hostages. Drakken discovers Kim and Ron and prepares to tell her his plan however Shego interrupts, pointing out when ever he does this, Kim wins. Drakken then activates a series of cables, which are attached to the factory production line, and then proceeds to escape with the production line, his henchmen and Shego by helicopter.
The next morning Kim is at breakfast with her father as he reads in the paper about Kim’s exploits the previous evening. Kim starts telling her dad about the Josh situation and how she wants to take him to the dance. Kim then begins telling her mum about Josh, when Jim and Tim interrupt saying Kim should send Josh an anonymous email through Sweden. Dad then recalls that Jim and Tim’s principal has been getting anonymous emails from Sweden, at which point the boys disappear. Kim’s mum then gives Kim some advice on how to talk to Josh.
Kim tries several times throughout the day to ask Josh but is unable to. Ron likewise tries several times to find a date but is rejected each time. Kim plans to talk to Josh as he paints a banner for the dance; however Bonnie’s arrival causes Kim to decide to ask him after cheer practice. During practice, the Kimmunicator rings and the distraction causes Kim to fall over, ripping Josh’s banner.
Kim and Ron follow up on a tip on Drakken’s newest lair, which leads them to a fortress deep in a snowy mountain region. Wade is unable to shut down the sensor beams around it. However he is able to increase the beams frequency thus making them visible to the human eye. As Kim announces they can’t touch the beams, Ron crashes into her and both head into the field of laser beams. They manage to avoid the beams, unfortunately, Rufus slides into one, setting off an alarm and causing them to be captured. Kim and Ron are then taken inside Drakken’s lair and surrounded by henchmen. Kim leaps over the henchmen to fight Shego on a catwalk above them. As the henchmen close in on Ron, he calls for help. Kim proceeds to throw him a tin of lip gloss. Ron threatens the henchmen with the tin, causing them to burst out laughing. Kim tells Ron to hold his breath and open the lid, which he does releasing a potent stink which knocks out the henchmen. Kim then uses the lip gloss on Shego, knocking her out as well. Drakken then appears and Ron tells him he knows of his plan to steal Christmas, to which Drakken replies, “not even close.”
Drakken then uses the factory assembly line he stole to form the ultimate robot warrior. As Drakken begins his rampage around his lair, Kim calls Wade who informs her that Nakasumi built an override into his factory system. Ron then distracts Drakken while Kim climbs up on the robot’s back searching for the override. As Drakken attempts to remove Kim from his back, he inadvertently reveals the override switch. Kim plugs the Kimmunicator into the override and Wade begins hacking into the robot. Ron attempts a flying kick on the robot, but is caught in mid-air by Drakken. As Ron hangs upside down, Rufus falls out of his pocket. Kim uses her hair dryer to swing down and rescue Rufus. As Drakken prepares to vaporize Kim, Wade gains control of the robot and then uses the robot to hang Drakken upside down like Ron.
However, Shego is quickly able to disable Wade’s control of the robot. Both Shego and Kim jump into the cockpit and fight for control over the robot. This causes Drakken and Ron to be flung around on the outside of the robot. During the fight Ron and Drakken are released from the robot’s grip and Shego is able to cause Kim to fall out of the cockpit. However Kim is able to use her hair dryer to entangle the robot’s legs during her descent. As the robot tips over, Km uses her rocket skates to move herself and Ron to safety. On her return to Middleton, Kim plans to ask Josh to the dance, however, as Josh gets closer to her position, Kim freaks out, hiding in the janitor’s closet. Ron encourages Kim and she leaves the closet and starts talking to Josh who agrees to go with her to the dance. As they walk away together, Ron announces his need for the ride to the dance, however Kim slams the door closed to the janitor’s closet. Kim in is then seen dancing with Josh at the dance. During the dance the Kimmunicator beeps, but she switches it off and continues to dance with Josh. As the episode ends it turns out Ron is still trapped in the janitor’s closet.

Episode #2: Sink or Swim – Ron returns to the scene of his worst summer ever – Camp Wannaweep. On the way to a cheerleading competition with Kim and the squad, Ron returns to the scene of his worst summer ever; Camp Wannaweep. While he confronts his old fears, he discovers something still lurking in the camp; something even scarier. It’s Ron’s chance to take charge when a tire blow-out strands the entire cheer leading squad at Camp Wannaweep, the origin of most of Ron’s phobias. On the way to a cheerleading competition, the bus gets a flat near the place that scarred Ron for life: Camp Wannaweep. They attempt to call for help, but the girls’ cell phones are not getting any service, and the Kimmunicator is out of commission, too. Since Ron knows the lay of the land, he leads them to a pay phone, but it is not working either. In the tradition of teen horror flicks (which the episode lampoons) they must stay the night. They make a campfire, where Ron proceeds to tell horror stories of the worst summer camp of his life, including one about the toxic lake Wannaweep, and how traded with a boy named Gil so that he could do arts and crafts all summer. Barkin and Kim become fed up with the stories, so they go to get more firewood. While Kim has her back turned, a strange creature captures Barkin. She runs back to the campfire and reports this to Ron, who suggests that they all move to Cabin 13, the Cabin in which he used to stay. Once inside, they hear Barkin calling to them from the outside. Kim and Ron race out to find him covered in muck, then realize that creature who did this to Barkin is now inside the Cabin. The creature turns out to be none other than Gil, though he has now changed his name to Gill. Gill reveals that he was mutated by the polluted water of the lake and that exposure to the muck, which by now has pinned down everybody except Ron, will turn a normal human into a mutant, just like him. Ron makes a run for it, using a tunnel in the floor of the Cabin to escape. Gill follows him, bursting through the floor of another Cabin, unleashing a flurry of muck. Ron escapes and constructs a net while Rufus repairs the engine of a motor boat. The two go out on to the lake, but run out of gas. Gill ambushes Ron, who traps him with the net, then signals to Rufus to start the boat, which was never out of gas. The boat smashes into the pier, taking Gill with it. The authorities arrive the next morning, along with a scientist who promises to try and reverse Gill’s mutation.

Episode #2:
The Middleton Cheer Squad is being driven to a cheer competition by Mr. Barkin, but Ron’s Mad Dog antics are starting to eat away at certain members of the squad (namely Bonnie). As Kim warns Ron to act “normal” for a change, Ron begins to notice something familiar about the road they’re on. In a sudden panic, Ron calls Wade on the Kimmunicator wanting a GPS lock on his position. Wade obliges and the data confirms Ron’s worst fears, they are near Camp Wannaweep.
Ron urges Mr. Barkin to drive fast and explains the camp is the site of his worst summer ever and that he would never come back. Suddenly the bus drives over some tire spikes, causing the bus to come to a halt outside the main gates to Camp Wannaweep. Barkin informs the team that the bus has two flats and that they need to call for help. As such the girls all pull out cell phones only to find there is no signal and even the Kimmunicator is not working. Barkin tells Ron to lead them to a phone in the camp. It then dawns on Ron that he is in charge for once, accordingly he declares to the team only he knows how to survive the dangers of Camp Wannaweep. The team enters the camp by only to discover the phone is out of order. Tara recalls that their situation is just like from horror films, innocent teens trapped in the woods getting picked off one by one. Kim is quick to dispel that idea and even Bonnie agrees, as if it were a movie there would be more guys. Kim announces that they’re stuck for the night and might as well make the best of it.
As the team sits around the campfire Ron tells them stories of his time at Camp Wannaweep. Barkin tells Ron to stop, when Ron notices a rustle in the bushes. As Ron goes to investigate, Kim tells him to relax and enjoy the campfire. As the leave the bushes a swamp creature appears briefly watching the team. Kim and Barkin soon leave in search of more firewood, citing they can’t stand to listen to another of Ron’s stories. As Barkin and Kim wander into the forest, the swamp creature follows them. Back at the campfire Ron tells the story of the lake at Camp Wannaweep. In the story, Ron recalls how he did not want to go swimming in the lake due to the fact it was green, it smelled and he had seen the fish glowing at night. Ron ended up trading his afternoon swim with a kid named Gil and Ron taking Gil’s spot in arts and crafts. Back in the forest as Kim and Barkin collect firewood, Kim hears a noise. Barkin dismisses this, saying Ron’s stories must be getting to her. Suddenly a creature grabs Barkin’s leg and pulls him into the bushes. Kim notices Barkin has vanished and calls out to him, but there is no response. Kim returns to the campfire to ask the rest of the team if they have seen Barkin. Kim asks where Liz and Marcello have gone, when suddenly two screams are heard. As Kim and Ron rush to the site, they find no trace of the girls and only a strange footprint in the dirt. Ron decides they must move to his old stronghold Cabin 13. As Kim and Ron debate over who is in charge, Barkin is heard calling out from the forest. Kim and Ron race out to find Barkin covered in green slime, talking about a strange creature that oozed muck. Suddenly screams are heard are from the rest of the team. Kim, Ron and Barkin run back to Cabin 13 to find it in ruins, the rest of the team pinned to the walls by green slime and the mysterious creature. The creature then revels itself to be Gil (who now calls himself Gill). Gill then traps Kim in his slime and tells Ron he knows all about how great Ron’s life is. Gill reveals that the lake was toxic and the reason for his mutation. Gill also tells the team that he jammed their cell phones and caused the bus to crash in order to get his revenge on Ron. As Gill advances on Ron, Ron escapes through a tunnel in the floor of the Cabin, as this happens Barkin starts to mutate due to contact with Gill’s slime. Ron’s tunnel emerges into the arts and crafts building and he begins collecting supplies. Gill suddenly bursts through the floor and begins shooting slime throughout the room. But once again Ron is able to escape.
Ron is then seen building a net from rope, while Rufus fixes an outboard motor on a motorboat. Ron and Rufus then take off across the lake in the motorboat. Gill hears the engine start and heads off after Ron. Suddenly the boat’s engine dies and Ron complains of it’s out of gas. Gill then appears next to the boat, so Ron dives into the lake. As Gill and Ron fight in the water a rope slips onto Gill’s leg. Ron grabs the rope and tells Rufus to start the engine. The boat then hurtles across the lake with Gill in tow, until it crashes into the dock leaving Gill high and dry.

The next morning Biohazard teams arrive to decontaminate the squad. Kim introduces Ron to Dr. Lurkin, who they hope is able to reverse Gill’s mutation. As Gill is taken away, in a giant fish bowl, he once again vows revenge on Ron. As the squad leaves the camp they all thank Ron and Tara even kisses him on the cheek. As Ron takes one last look at the camp, Kim comes over and congratulates him for saving everyone. As they leave Ron asks if he can call the shots on their next mission, however Kim’s response is that that’s ferociously unlikely.
