Hardly. Eric's gone.
Am I the only person who actually liked Eric?
Of course, notwithstanding, the way he treated Kim after he revealed himself.

The ONLY reason I would want to see the synthoprick come back would be for him to get killed in some particularly spectacular fashion.

Ron liked Kim for the longest time and then everything was complicated by Syndrone 901 aka Erik. I think he is an enemy of Ron.

One of the aspects of StD that I like the best is that Ron saw Erik betray Kim. When Kim is knocked out Ron doesn't know what has happened to her and he lets out this aggressive, almost hurt wail as he launches himself at Erik. Unfortunately he's so focused on destroying Erik that Shego knocks Ron out but what'cha gonna do.
Both have every reason to include Erik as an enemy and I'm sure both would. However as Erik was skrewing with everything Ron ever cared about I think he should be in Ron's column.

You know, it's a pity Eric didn't stick around.
Ron really has no evil counterpart in the world of evil. But he went toe to toe with Eric and was successful in fighting him off.
So, it would have been interesting to see future battles with Kim and Ron fighting against Shego and Eric.
Can you reboot a synthodrone?
I'm curious, where was their artificial intelligence module stored? I'm assuming they weren't all goo. Given the way Eric responded to impacts on his head, I'd guess it was in there.
So, if this was the case, all you have to do is "patch the hole", fill him up again with the goo and he'd be good to go again!

I never liked him anyway he was a complete tool... Actually, I got the impression that Eric was a sentient being. He didn't act like a robot at all. After all, he was demonstrating the use of emotion (mostly anger or hate) and humor. So, I'm thinking he had free will. Therefore, he wasn't going with the plan because he was ordered to, but because he wanted to. And he refers to Drakken as his father, which implies an emotional response.

Eric's a syntodrone with an A.I

The reference to Drakken being his father was probably more for cover than it was the natural creature to creator response.

What if Drakken wanted revenge on RON for making him say his name on that rooftop and as a way to distract/hurt Kim even more because they were a couple? One way to do that for sure would be to make an Erika! Get Kim all jealous and everything.
It wouldn't take much you have to admit and Ron could easily be overpowered just like Bonnie did when she kissed Ron.
That could be one way Erik could return, in disguise as something neither would ever suspect! Except maybe Rufus might but Kim never knows what he is saying.

Well, Drakken refers to Synthodrone 842 (not Eric, who's 889) having a distinct personality. Because 842 have a distinct personality difference from the others.
So, in line with these were for his ultimate conquer the world plan, I'm guessing Drakken really pulled out the stops in technology development.
I never even knew he had subordinate scientists!
It's just that Eric seems to operate on a human level, because his emotions rule him as much or even more then an normal organic being. So, it would be hard or impossible to control him if he didn't want to co-operate with you.
But I'm guessing since he was created by Drakken, he made sure that Eric was evil and had an emotional attachment to Drakken (which is why he thought of him as his father).

Aero Tendo, interesting idea with an Erika synthodrone. My only concern with the plan is that though Bonnie forced herself on Ron he had made it quite clear that Kim was "the only girl for me" to use a direct quote. I'm of the mind that the forced kiss was a last ditch attempt to change Ron's mind. With Bonnie, a girl that had been in Ron's life since kindergarden, it didn't work. Having a random girl show up to seduce him probably wouldn't fly either. The thing is it's a darn good idea though, as buckmana states, Drakken is pulling out all the technological stops in StD so maybe if you write a fan fic that was back dated to the summer between junior and senior year this would work as Kim and Ron's relationship was still new. Or better yet have Erika as a prototype for Erik and write up a story taking place during season three. We know the jealousy idea would work then, look at how Kim freaked during the Gorilla Fist episode.

Ron makes the comment that Bonnie has called him cruel names from k-12 in the episode Homecoming Upset when they are in JP Bearimore's Pizza Partitorium.

And I bet we still didn't get to see pre-K Bonnie! I bet she would be cute! I wonder how old her sisters were at that time? I'm not really certain, but they could be in their thirties. Or maybe early twenties. Which would have made them 12 at this time. Don't they have anything better to do then pick on poor Bonnie? Since Bonnie's nasty behavior is a direct result of being victimized by her older sisters, I have to wonder what kind of monsters would be mean to a 4 year old.......

While I agree that a lot Bonnie's atitude comes from her being a victim of her sisters, I do think there is also a good arguement for the fact that she enjoy's mocking others.
When we see her sisters in bonding they appear to be early to mid twenties to me.
