I'm trying to remember what plates all the different continents are on... that is what affects what moves in relation to what. Anyone remember? Or have a map? It was not hard for me to do a Google image search on 'Continental Drift' and came up with several images that would be helpful. I'm not direct linking to the images; you have to click on them to see them. geology.com/pangea-continental-drift.gifThis one shows what the continents would look like then and over time to present time. Yet one has to remember that the land masses of the northern hemisphere didn't look like it was today compare to those of the southern hemisphere. The ice ages pretty much changed the land masses of the northern hemisphere due to erosion, etc. universe-review.ca/I09-03-drift.jpgAnd to end this, below is a link to an image of our modern day continental major plates. The map doesn't show the small minor plates. physics.uoregon.edu/~jimbrau/BrauImNew/Chap07/FG07_10.jpg

LOL.
When my mom and I watched it, about 10 minutes after I posted my review, she made notice of a couple of things.
*Kim wearing a robe in front of Ron prior to the main theme. *Shego saying "seriously?" and Drakken's face afterwards
I loved that really cool sign, "earn Keep Sir Wonk" I was like... my mother and I tried to figure it out but we couldn't. LOL.

I loved the episode, my favorite moments had to be when Drakken/Ron/Shego were together alone. Shego and Ron were both saying the same funny lines together LOL. And Drakken got frusterated with there remarks, too funnyXD

4/5
Very good episode, with some really telling parts. Still, it did play out as the "Intro the new outfit" episode.
Good parts: Kim's own attempts at finding an outfit! I'm sure the "Ghetto" Kim outfit was just her having fun with Ron, though MC Honey would approve. Not exactly sure why Ron turned his thumb down at the School-Girl look, unless he was looking at it purely as mission wear - otherwise it was rather innocent/hot! The blond wig look was surprising in that I think that's the first time Kim's been in a top that backless. The army outfit would have worked, though without the hat.
Ron's walking by Drakken's statue and not noticing was pitch-perfect. He was also pretty quick on the up-take about ICU being fake. His knowing about Pangea was VERY surprising, but played out as a funny surprise.
One line that REALLY jumped out at me was James telling Kim he wanted her midriff covered up. Then again, why has he waited from when she was 14-15 all the way to 17 to tell her this?
The bad: Points off for the tacked-on feeling College b-plot. It seemed rushed and really didn't fit in well. Not to mention, I don't like the Foreign college notion - and there's Ron. Sure, he's not getting into any Ivy league school, but there are tons of community colleges and even some state schools that will let him in easily.
The one thing that was NOT realistic: Dang, people, we're talking about olive cargo pants. I can go to Abercrombie and Fitch, Hollister, Old Navy (which I think is the archetype for CB) Gap, Wal-Mart and Target (I work for Target, I know) and find them. Ron's charcoal gray are harder to find) and even if all those are out (or too expensive - remember her $5.99 pants at Smarty Mart and Ron said they were 10x higher at CB? He wasn't kidding!) there's always the local Army/Navy store. There's not much separating cargo pants from fatigue bottoms.
I'm a bit taken aback by Kim's outright dismissal of Monique's ideas. The scene went by so fast we didn't get to see much of what she was offering. I guess the only thing we can take from this is that Monique is like many talented designer/artists who have the basics, but don't have the experience yet to come up with viable designs...
...then again, she's the one wearing the tan overalls (bleh!)
I agree with everyone else at this point: Ron needs a new Mission Look. (and I hate to disagree with Steve Loter, but BRING BACK RON'S OTHER CLOTHES!)

Yeah, well said Argus , but does this mean that when Wade finishes fixing the battle suit-Ron gets to have it? Also I agree with Mr.Dr. Possible, Kim did need to cover her midriff. Both for modesty and it's not wise to always leave your midsection vulneurable during a fight.

After thinking about it for a few hours one thing came to my mind: Drakken probably caused with his worldwide earthquake much more damage than in STD and nobody seemed to care!

Just saw it last night.
Kim's new look is alright with me. At least she has a level of camouflage with it, not like that super-suit (and she can't always rely on its stealth mode, either).
Drakken and Shego have once again proven that they are inseparable. Even after a few hiccups in their relationship, they still stick together.
Did anyone catch the Camille reference when Kim was on the walkway?
By the way, for those who haven't seen it, here's the ending tag in a nutshell. Basically, Kim goes back to the prison to show off her new look to the Fashionistas, and they aren't too happy at how she stole their look.

Pretty much what I feel about Ron, given Kim is getting new attires *every* episode. Yeah, she's a senior, yet so is Ron and as a senior, he should start *looking* like one.

Well, I'm sure he will wear some strange attire from time to time. But if Mr. Loter has said it himself, all hope is lost for new casual clother for Ron.

I was able to buy a pair of Covert green cargo capri pants at JC Penney's for 25 dollars on Thursday. But other than that, I loved the episode.

I think it was quite curious that Kim was wearing her old "Colors" right before putting on the new duds. If you look closely, this is the artwork for her purple wrap top, but colored differently. Edit: Just noticed on the 4th viewing how badly the Sloth smokes. Wow, better not drive that in California, Kim!

My Rating: 4/5. Commander Argus pretty much said everything I was going to say about it. ITA. Did the mission suit have to be strictly made up of Club Banana or *shudder* Smarty Mart clothes? It would fit K.P.'s character, but I also find it hard to believe that those clothes couldn't be found at any other store. Plus, I always assumed Kim had more than one set of the crop top/cargo pants combo, just in case. Guess not. I liked it a lot, except why go to the extreme of essentially stealing The Fashionistas' design, when Kim could have worked with Monique, who had obviously been thinking about countless designs for her? The new mission suit is really nice looking, but I just don't like her arms uncovered. For some reason, it seems even less practical then having her midriff exposed. After the past few episodes so far, anyone who thinks Kim is too perfect and flawless should really be thinking otherwise at this point. I figured she would have been thinking about her future after high school. The girl definitely has issues of her own. If she thinks she's pressed for time now, just wait until college. *stares* Dern anagrams. That's it! ANAGRAMS!?!?!?!!!!!?!?!!!!!!! AUUUGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Why didn't I see it sooner! *slaps forehead* Now I'm thinking of Monty Python again! Actually, the sign gag seemed to be more of a Fawlty Towers reference to me. The sign outside the hotel changed to funny anagrams of "Fawlty Towers" every episode.

Thanks for the maps, JuP. Now we must determine in what directions those plates were moving. It might be difficult to cause Drakkengaea at this point in earth.
I'm still giggling over the Senior Prank Week sign. Once I figured it out, it's so hilarious.
