circling for a parking spot, been there! That parking bit was spot-on for San Francisco. Parking spaces are scarcer than hen's teeth in that city. Thank God for BART. This was probably my second-favorite episode of the night, right behind Ill-Suited. The action was good, the writing rocked, and Ron came through in the end with getting them a ride, stopping the lasers and saving Mr. Smarty from Shego. I was a little dissapointed with the opening scene at the restaurant, however. I know Ron's always been a little clueless and childish, but that scene just seemed way to over-the-top for me. It made him look like a complete moron. This is one disapointment which I actually felt with all the eps. I know that in their recent ToonZone interview, Bob and Mark said that Season Four would focus a little more on Ron and developing his character. I guess I was hoping for a little more of this development coming out of the gate. The season is still young, however, so there's plenty of time to make it up. Overall, 5 out of 5!

This episode was great - the fight scenes were great, the comedy was top notch. In my eyes it's a 5.

I agree with nutzkie here. The only flaws I've found with the season so far are is the lack of major charecter developement for Ron, and the lack of more K/R shippy moments.

I felt rather lukewarm towards the episode, but I think this episode was where I noticed they kicked it up a notch: The way Shego grabbed Martin Smarty, it was like somebody holding a gun to your head, for example. Kim's strapless dress. She's hotting herself up for Ron! But, I liked the episode. You get to see some of the civil relationship between Kim and her brothers that I'm expecting to see this season.

More shipping and some "growing-up" from Ron would make these episodes beyond awsome! Anyone else in agreement, here?

I was actually a bit disappointed in this episode...Shego pretty much turned into a wimp this season...i dont get why she kept on running away from Kim,in the last seasons she like rushed into the fights. I dont even think she taunted Kim nearly as much as the last seasons, in fact Kim taunted her even more so in this episode...and how could she be scared of alligators...if she can punch through concrete, is alligators really that bad?
Also in Std Shego was able to put up a pretty good fight with Battle suit Kim, in fact they almost seemed equal. In this season it showed how powerful the battle suit was..i mean look at the effect it had on Ron, he was able to even beat Kim. So shouldnt this mean Shego is way stronger than Kim...perhaps even on a different level so I really dont get why shes getting clobbered by Kim without the battle suit.

One thing I'd like to point out about Shego: She doesn't seem to have any problem using her powers against people or things, but it's entirely possible she's an animal lover at heart. Remeber her concern about the fish in "Job Unfair?" I know, it's a stretch, but that's all I can figure for her not blasting her way out of the pit.

I've Always felt shego was Greater than Kim on the battle field, as to way she feels this unconcise need to hold herself back bothers me. Perhaps being beaten in So The Drama has had some kinda effect on Shego that's slowly wearing off, on account she does come off as more calm and so intent on Avoiding kim..

There's only been three episodes so far of season four if they said there'd be character development on Ron trust them. We still have 18 more episodes to go...Were actually seeing a side right now from Ron that we've never seen and that's fear people thinking of him and loosing Kim....I'm thinking they will develop this...Any ways I enjoyed this episode I like Ron and am finding out I can relate to him so much more than I thought, not liking cats, not really growing up its awesome ;D

I remember that, and I really think that maybe she does care about animals in some weird way. Though, who cares about fish?

I gave it a 5/5, my second fav from the four episodes. Coupons? Where on Earth did Ron get those? I think Drakken actually said "God". Well, my CC I had on (I'm not deaf!) put that he and SSJ said that.

I think Shego does care for animals, why else wouldn't she use her powers on the Alligators.

True, though I'm stunned she couldn't fire in front of them to scare them away either.

Oh, I don't know--I believe I see a pattern beginning to form re: Ron's character development. In the first four eps broadcast we see Ron struggling with becoming a boyfriend, a member of the football team, getting a job and being a supportive friend -- in other words, taking on more adult responsibilities. Based on this and other spoilers, my guess would be that Ron's character arc this season will revolve around achieving adulthood.
As to the K/R shippy moments...well, I saw plenty. As I expected the relationship will be more important in some episodes than others but everything we've seen so far has had at least a couple of sweet moments between them. Personally I prefer the more subtle approach. If every episode was chock full o' big romantic moments it honestly wouldn't feel like Kim and Ron to me. Carefully integrating expressions of romantic affection into their existing relationship seems to be the right approach to me.

I liked this episode!
It was fun and all...but I rated it mehh, because for some reason, I felt it was equivilant to Oh Boys...
Although I laughed...(a lot!) I still felt the episode was missing action, like it was missing something.
Of course I'd top it over anything else!!! It's still KP! Maybe I was just sleepy...perhaps on second viewing I could change my mind.

They're in love, yes, but no couple spends EVERY WAKING MOMENT being lovey dovey. Even that has the potential to make me sick. I'm glad with the way they're doing it. It's sweet. It's the little moments that count.
