| Kim commits a little white lie to avoid the embarrassment of
another Halloween trick-or-treating with Ron. But as her fib grows,
it takes on a physical form, thanks to liquid metal armor that she
recovered from a Duff Killigan heist. |

First time Kim uses a gadget that isn't made by Wade.
We learn that Kim and Ron met in preschool.
First time any of Kim's foes team up. |
|
Dr. Drakken: Is it true, Duff Killigan, that you recently stole the top-secret Centurian Project?
Duff Killigan: Maybe. Is it true, Dr. Drakken, that you wish to purchase the recently stolen, top-secret Centurian Project?
Dr. Drakken: Maybe.
Ron: Here's what I'm thinking, K.P. -- joint costume.
[Ron holds up rendering of unicorn costume]
Ron: Huh? Huh? You like it?
Monique (aside): Girl, go with the half with the horn.
Wade: Hey, Eugene.
Eugene: Awww, how'd ya know it was me?
Wade: Cross ref'd your IP address. I put the candy credits in your mailbox.
Trick-or-Treater: Mister, could you not do "smell your feet"? It's really lame.
Ron: Hey, hey! Unicorn came to play!
Trick-or-Treater: You're no unicorn; you're just a horse's--
Trick-or-Treatee: Piece of advice -- the girl costume works better without the beard.
Killigan: I'M NO' A GIRL!
Shego (to Ron, and Kim's parents): Now let me get this straight, Kim Possible, THE Kim Possible, LIED??!!
[As the three are arrested]
Drakken: I, for one, am extremely disappointed in Kim.
Shego: I know! Lying to her parents and her best friend. (disapprovingly) Mmm.
Killigan: Aye, she'll be working long and hard to regain my trust....
Killigan: You-- You're a criminal!
Drakken: My dear fellow, I repeatedly try to take over the world -- of *course* I'm criminal!
Wade: You must be more stressed out when you're lying than when you're fighting - Way to go, Pinocchio!
Drakken: All right, try to blend in.
Shego [putting on eye mask]: No problem.
Drakken: Hm. You're just trying to annoy me now, aren't you?
Josh: So, uh... What are you again?
Kim: A stinking liar trapped in high-tech battle armor.
Josh: See, I- I wouldn't have guessed that.
Ron: Kim, Duff Killigan captured me!
Kim: I know, I'm so sorry. I never imagined that my lies could put anybody in danger...
Ron: Forget danger, woman! It put me behind schedule on my trick-or-treating! I'm not getting that time back!
Ron: Poor Duff, kids can be cruel...
Duff Killigan: Not as cruel as I can be, Mr. Stoppable...
Drakken (into megaphone): I am an infamous villain bent on global conquest, and I demand--
Killigan (into another megaphone): Oh, stick a sock in it. It is I, Duff Killigan, the world's most dangerous golfer.
Drakken: Do you mind? This is MY crime scene.
Killigan: Guess again...blue boy.
Kim: Wade, cool costume. Wait a second, you're gonna leave your room?
Wade: No way. I do it all online.
[Drakken appears]
(Mrs) Dr. Possible: *ghasp* Dr. Drakken!
[Duff Killigan appears]
(Mr) Dr. Possible: A bearded lady!
Killigan: I'M NO A'LADY, I'M DUFF KILLIGAN!
Kim: I can tell you this armor is controlled by my thoughts and emotions, and right now I'm feeling pretty nasty.
Shego: So count to ten or something.
Kim (to villains): Step away from the happy Halloweeners and surrender now!
Ron: When Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable go Trick-or-Treating there is no 'after'. We hit Middleton, Upperton, *and* Lowerton.
Ron: Sure, it starts with a few lies, but soon our little Kimmie sinks deeper and deeper. How low will she go? What kind of inhuman monster will she become?! ... Huh?
[ Kim lands on the Centurion Project's thrusters ]
Dad: Apparently a cybertronic one.
Drakken: Stupid thing! Never works when I'm roaming!
Killigan: Foul machine! Never works when I'm roaming!
Jim: Mom's a doctor, she could take off the hand and sew it right back on again!
[Kim (shocked) hides her hand under the table]
Kim: I'm regular me again!
Shego: Oh, regular you I can handle.
Drakken and Killigan: Kim Possible!?
Killigan: You know her?
Drakken: Know her, hate her. Shego! |

| Animation Goof: When Kim answers the phone, the bracelet disappears.
Animation Goof: When Kim finally gets to the party, both her arms are armored. But this occurs before the right one is covered.
Coloration Goof: At the end of the episode, both of Shego's gloves are green, rather than one being green, and the other black.
Coloration Goof?: First Barkin goes brunette, now Ned's a blonde. Those dye-happy Middletonites... I'll bet Mrs. P's not even a true redhead.
^--Ned, for some random reason, might just have dyed his hair for Halloween. But you never know, it could be another crazy hair color thing like Barkin, where Ned's only a brunette in Bueno Nacho.
Ron leaves the front half of his unicorn costume with Kim behind a door she presumably locks, yet has it handy to offer Josh at the episode's end.
Why would Kim allow Killigan to return to, and operate out of, his island lair?
The number of finger segments in the Centurian Project's gauntlets varies wildly from shot to shot.
Mom raises her arms in a spooky gesture as she relates the tweeb's desire to "drench [Kim] in fake blood", then withdraws them, half-concerned ("At least, I hope it's fake..."). In a single frame, as the camera angle changes, her left arm's back in the air, completely motionless in the foreground.
Contrary to the series' established style, Kim's lower lip is momentarily filled in as she answers her cordless phone (and crushes it in the process).
Coloration Goof: The black that tops Shego's collar appears and disappears at random throughout the episode.
Drakken was at his island lair, though in "Tick-Tick-Tick", Kim started a chain reaction that blew it up. Wasn't it totally destroyed?
It's been a while since the whole "Tick-Tick-Tick" incident, so maybe he had his men rebuild that particular lair.
Why was Kim wearing cargo pants under a princess outfit? And why did the Centurion armor form over her top and pants, but under her dress (Disney S&P aside ;)?
Explanation: Kim was wearing the cargo pants and top when the armor started to deploy. Therefore it started to cover them, but not the princess dress because she put that on later.
When Kim flashes back to the first Halloween with Ron, she has freckles. Unless I'm wrong, freckles don't go away.
If this episode is supposed to take place in the year it was first aired, there's a problem. Halloween in 2002 was on a Thursday, not an unspecified weekend day.
^--Where I live, if Halloween is on a Thursday, the weekend starts there. There's no school on Friday and some businesses close for weekend. Is it like that everywhere else?
On the subject of Kim allowing Killigan to return to his island lair: her resources are limited, especially compared to the Global Justice Network, which presumably had custody of Killigan at the end of "Number One".
Jim and Tim switch places after Mr. Dr. Possible's line: "The bracelet appears to be constructed of a super-strong alloy." Before that, Jim is on the right and Tim is on the left (Green shirt-left, Red shirt-right). After that, Tim is on the left and Jim is on the right (Red shirt-left, Green shirt-right).
The first time Kim answers her bedroom phone, its side is briefly
transparent.
About the freckles goof: I had freckles when I was 5 years old, but they disappeared as I got older, so it's possible for some people to lose freckles. (KIM7813)
When Kim is upstairs talking to Wade about the Centurion Project, she's
barefoot. When she answers Ron at the door, a second or two later, she has shoes on.
Wade should have known that there's no such thing as an ISP address. It is actually an IP address.
During Ron's "I don't have anything to add...." speech in the cafe after confronting Shego, Drakken and Killigan, Kim's mouth is frozen
in an "O" shape.
As the Centurion Project deploys and covers Kim's head, it covers her tiara. However, when the Project retreats back into the bracelet, she is no longer wearing the tiara.
Shego's gloves are already lit as she races toward Kim in the third act ("Oh, it stops here!"), yet when the camera cuts wider, she lights them again.
About the blond Ned, it's not proven it's him. Animators recycle designs all the time, maybe they didn't want to waste time creating a new person, and just drew Ned and changed his hair color.
^-- Considering that Ned played a substantial role in the series' first (pc-wise) episode, and that the mummy-wrapped character seen in this ep is given a foreground visual gag (rather than being mere set dressing), that seems unlikely in this case (unless someone was really asleep at the wheel).
^-- Perhaps he dyed his hair for Halloween.
Re: Tiara- The armor probaqbly crushed it when it grew over her head.
When Mrs. Possible was taking up tickets, there was some disruption, I think from Jim and Tim. But a boy paid Mrs. Possible before the disruption, then after it, he paid again.
After Killigan says 'Blame the scientist who built it' Kim comes and says 'Guess what? I think THOSE SCIENTIST would like it back'.
When Wade realizes that lies trigger the Project, Kim tells him the truth. Shouldn't the bracelet have retracted then?
Answer to question: No it's not like that. in Louisiana, if Halloween is on a Thursday, scholl still happens on Friday, as well as businesses. |

DYN? #1
DYN? #2
Middleton is apparently sandwiched between "Upperton" and "Lowerton".
Trick-or-Treater: "You're wearing a ski-irt!"
Oh, what a tangled web we weave...
Killigan: Not as cruel as I can be, Mr. Stoppable...
Duff Killigan seems to be the only other villain besides Gill who remembers Ron's name. Good memory on Killigan's part.
Did anyone notice . . .
Did anyone notice that when Wade is talking with Eugene, the background looks like the interior of Cousin Larry's room. Are they relatives or what?
^- - You're right!
This room has the exact same poster as Larry has. Maybe both characters play the Fortress video game. However, even Ron likes the game; it doesn't prove that anyone's related.
Did you consider...
This always bugs me every time I see this one: in the opening sequence when Duff Killigan fires an exploding golf ball at Kim, if Ron hadn't obstructed it with the plate then he ran the risk of killing Shego along with Kim. Then would Dr Drakken still have been willing to pay him?
DYN? #3
The man (Guy with Hawaiian shirt) and woman who are scared by Jim and Tim's Mr. Cadaver have appeared in almost every episode as background characters (Though I have a feeling they might be more than that).
DYN? #4
This episode begins the practice of relating all the villains, or at least emphasising that they know that each other exist. Some more episodes like this include "Adventures in Rufus-Sitting," "Two to Tutor" and "Partners."
Cowgirls
At Bueno Nacho, Ron tells Monique about his first Halloween with Kim, for which she dressed as a cowgirl. Minutes later, at the party, Monique shows up as a cowgirl also.
DYN? #5
The voice of Josh Mankey has changed-- now Josh is played by Even Steven's A.J. Trauth, rather than Breckin Meyer.
DYN-I did
Doesn't anyone think Kim sounded concerned when she warned Shego not to come close to her?
They've met...?
Monique evidently has Wade on speed-dial.
RE:They've met...?
Not only that, Wade is on one of the first three numbers of Monique's speed dial.
Reminds Me of...
Apparently, Ron has letting go issues, jest like Kim's dad("Monkey Ninjas in Space").
RE: DYN? #5
Also, is it just me, or does Josh look a lot like A.J.?
Animation for entire episode:
When I saw this episode, I noticed that Drakken's head looked more....off than it is in the others. It seemed thinner, or in a different shape. Did anyone else catch this? |

No Speaker: No Quote
Near the end of the second act, Kim Possible literally loses the princess outfit as the Centurion Project armor overwhelms her. Interestingly enough, one shot is a poster pose of the famous James Bond movie "For Your Eyes Only".
Note the similarity here.. More Info
None: None
You say that shot looks like one from "For Your Eyes Only." Now, oddly enough, one of the KP items for sale at Wal-Mart is called the Kim Possible FOR YOUR EYES ONLY Journal!
Kim: 0
Reminds me of the Witchblade armor.
none: Josh's band
A.J. Trauth(the voice of Josh Mankey) also played Twitty in Even Stevens, who had a band as well. |
