This will now be the discussion thread, thread made since some people have seen it on Disney On Demand Promo thread found here ronstoppable.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=episode&action=display&thread=1179010753&page=1------***------ OVERALL RS.NET CAP'N DRAKKEN REVIEW: 4.86/5ARRRRRR, the Pirates of the Caribbean has hit Kim Possible, and the results were rather interesting. After their field trip goes mysteriously canceled...AGAIN...the Middleton High Senior class has gone to an old 17th century village for their trip. Complete with grades and everything. And you can bet that the class is not happy with that, since they have to give up on all 21st century tech and they must commit themselves to lifestyles that were prominent to the 17th century. Meanwhile, D & S are at it again while undersea. During their planning to *ahem* take over the world , Dr. D uncovers a treasure chest that contains the spirit of a long deceased pirate. After opening it (What? Did you think he was going to sell it on e-bay?), that pirate's spirit possesses Drakken and he becomes even more deadly and begins an assault on the town Kim's class currently is residing in! I need to ask...but has Barkin become more and more...oh, I don't know...ANNOYING?! Okay, playing as the senior class chaperone is one thing, but to play the roles of the various members of the town...that's just pushing it over the cliff. That, and his grade point dropping system. Clearly the staff of that little in the way of original residents. Historical accuracy indeed *phht!*. That's my only big gripe. I did find myself enjoying this episode anyway. Drakken being possessed by a pirate really put some hair on his chest. If he was like that all the time, then I'm sure that he would've taken over the world by now. And the styles of costumes the class wore during the trip was rather impressive. I think Bon-bon looked rather cute in her peasant clothes. And might I say I think Kim looks better with her hair in a ponytail. Man, Ron would've gotten an eyeful when they were on the ship! ;D This was rather good episode, and I would watch it again if given the chance. All it needs is a couple of things to make it perfect...Less Barkin...Annnnnnnnnnd............. NINJAS!!! Where're my ninjas?!!!?!! If there be pirates in this eppy, I want ninjas to kick their peg-leg booties! My review score: 4/5 ------***------

So guys, here's what we know about the episode so far courtesy of yes4possible, who got to see 'Cap'n Drakken' on Disney On Demand: I saw the episode on DOD, so two things that happen in this happens that we thought we would never see. 1) Shego attacks Drakken, and saves Kim from Drakken. 2) Kim saves Drakken's life. Dude, you didn't tell us it was on Disney on Demand?! *le gasp* But awesome spoilers. You want to start a review poll thread like we normally do, and I be glad to post an episode recap. Also you see some Bonnie character development. She is actully soften up a little bit, the only mean words said between Bonnie and Kim, was from Kim hinting at Bonnie being a witch. In the beginning Ron is over packed, and Bonnie says "We are only staying for the weekend Ron." She just called him RON, the old Bonnie would have said "We are only staying for the weekend loser" or some other mean word like dork, weirdo, freak. Either that, or she doesn't have the energy to be as mean as she use to be. LOL SPECULATE!

You started a review thread. Sorry I started another one, if you can lock it for me. Here is a recap.
It begins with the Middleton Senior class getting ready to go on a field trip. As stated before Ron comedic over packs, and Bonnie respond by simply saying in a normal not really mean tone. "We're only going away for the week Ron." She simply said RON, the old Bonnie would have said in a more mean tone "We're only going away for the week loser", or dweeb, or freak, etc. So she is nicer in this episode. The only mean thing said between Bonnie and Team Impossible, is Kim sort of calling Bonnie "a witch".
Anyway the schedule field trip is canceled because for booking problems, the only place they can go is on a 18th century theme cabin retreat, and they will be graded on how retro they act. The trip is supervised not by Barkin, but by Barkin's father, who looks a lot like his son.
Upon arrival the class is having trouble adjusting to 18th century life, Ron is lossing lots of points. And eventully cheats, but more on that later.
Meanwhile Drakken and his gang, has set up a new underground leer, when they find a tressure box. Drakken opens it and slowly becomes possed by a pirite. When possed, he is much more of a dangerous threat, at one point he calls Shego "a wench", needless to say, she didn't appreciate that.
Wade arrives via horseback (earlier Barkin's dad compensated all electronique devices including the communicator) ala Paul Revere to tell Kim that Drakken is in the area.
Kim and Ron find Drakken and his crew, and fight. Drakken and Shego get away, Drakken now fully posseed by the pirite finds the pirite's old ship crew. They attack the town, Kim, Ron, Barkin's dad, Monique, and a ruldent Bonnie board a ship to fight the pirites. Wait till you see Kim in her pirite outfit.
Kim and Drakken fight, Drakken is actully dangerous, and he has the upperhand. Drakken is going to finish off Kim, when Shego attacks him, because no one kills Kim but her, which surprised me, I expect that when it comes to a rival like Warmonga, but Drakken is her boss. Drakken orders his crew to attack Shego, and they put her in one of those 19th century prison things, that locks someone head and arms to wood.
The ship eventully blows up, Kim and Drakken fall to the water, Drakken is no longer possed, he is knocked out, and flooding deep into the water, Kim goes into the water and saves him.
Drakken and Shego are arrested. In the end, the class learns how they lived in the 18th century.
The tag is Ron tied to the 18th century prision thing I told you about, as Barkin's dad, Kim, Monique, and Bonnie look on, as punishment for cheating. Kim and Bonnie are on the same page shockingly.
My review is a 5 / 5, so much action, and OOC. It was great. Shego saving Kim from Drakken, Kim saving Drakken, Bonnie being nicer, things that we thought we never see.

lol, I've been where yes4possible is - writing up a summary for an unaired episode is THE MOST boring thing on the planet, and it's way too much hassel trying to remember/fit in every single detail.
I'll be satisfied with highlights. No pressure, yes4possible!
EDIT: Scratch that - AWESOME REVIEW!!!!!!

EDIT: Scratch that - AWESOME REVIEW!!!!!!I know, I forgot to mention to mention Barkin's dad pet parriot, who is a tattle tale, and used to the evil pirite's pet. He pretend go back to the pirite posseing Drakken. But he is really a double agent. At one point Kim and Ron put him in a net, and refer to him as prisoner. so he doesn't tattle on them for cheating on the assignment, which shows a slight evil side form Kim and Ron.

Hmm... well it could be because Drakken wasn't himself at the time I mean, whenever Drakken has Kim in a deathtrap, Shego always looks pleased when it looks like Kim won't get out of it.

Maybe Shego's new "Kim only dies by my own hands" attitude steems from So The Drama, when Kim kicked her into the antenna and electriquted her, and she made a plege from this day "I am going to kill Kim Possible with my own hands, and if anyone else gets in my way, I will attack them."
No real K / R moment, just Kim and Ron looking for Drakken on a fancy boat cheating on the assignment, and Ron having fun goofing off.

Wow, Shego needs some therapy ;D Well, as I haven't seen it yet - I'll refrain from posting in that thread. So a nicer Bonnie...I love the idea. I won't blow it out of proportion - she only said that one line. But one line can speak a thousand words! And wow, I'm shocked at Kim calling Bonnie a witch. Though, I'm sure it wasn't unprovoked. It was sort of unprevoked. Bonnie carry larges buckets of water complaining, which is whatever in the class was doing. Not saying anything mean towards Kim. And Kim said "Careful Bonnie, they burn witches around here." Wow, that's kinda bit chy. By the way, what are Ron and Bonnie dressed like? Is Barkin in retro gear too? Monique?

Hmm... was it just Kim who saw Drakken float downwards in the water? I don't remember, but she was the only one in the water, and the closest to him. She was the only one who could have saved him. Everyone was in retro geer, it was part of the assignment. But only Kim and Barkin Sr. were dressed like ship crew members.
