Ron Millionaire

Episode Number: 49    Season Num: 2    First Aired: Friday June 4, 2004    Prod Code: 228
When Ron gains Naco royalties from Bueno Nacho and becomes a multi-millionaire, he loses track of his persona and becomes a self-absorbed individual. However, when Dr. Drakken attempts to steal a huge diamond in order to power his laser, he takes notices of the now rich Ron and attempts to seize his finances, so it’s up to Kim to save the day and her friend Ron; despite the fact that he is no longer the Ron she used to know.

Quotes

(Drakken discovers that Ron is rich)
Drakken: The fool has money? A large ridiculous amount of money? (chuckling) Oh, I'll finish Operation Catastrophic Doom in style. (ordering his henchmen) Grab the buffoon!
Ron: How can I be rich, and still be a buffoon? (edit)
Ron: The Ron needs to let people know that he is a man of wealth and taste.
Kim: And the gold-plated stretch limo doesn't send that message? (edit)
(After Operation Catastrophic Doom fails)
Shego: Colossal-waste-of-money!
Drakken: Shego! No Iceland for you! (edit)
Jimmy: (after Drakken blasts through the wall) Gentlemen and beautiful lady friends, please. Jimmy Ding the Bling Bling King has more than enough ice to keep the situation cool.
Kim: Sorry, Mr. Ding, but they're evil.
Drakken: Oh, just because I do bad things that makes me evil.
Kim: Uh, yeah. You're a villain.
Drakken: You teenagers think you have it all figured out! Sometimes there are shades of grey!
Kim: Not in this case. (edit)

Trivia

add »
This is one of four episodes where Ron changes his image to get more popular, with the other three being All The News, Ron the Man, and The New Ron. (edit)
Jump5's remake of 'Celebration' plays as Ron struts into school surrounded by his peeps, in his first appearance as 'the Ron.' (edit)
The character models in Ron's flashback to how he invented the Naco are the same ones used for Jonathan Stoppable and Miriam Possible in Rewriting History, which by production codes (and air dates) occurs two episodes after this. (edit)
Because Ron got a nickel for every naco, this means that 1,980,000,000 nacos were sold (edit)
It isn't even possible to carry $100,000 in cash, let alone 99 mil. (edit)

Allusions

add »
Total Recall:

The rotorcraft is similar to the USMC Boeing V-22 Osprey. Also, the robotic pilot recalls the robotic cab driver in Arnold Shwarzenegger's movie Total Recall. (edit)
Knight Rider:

William Daniels, the voice of the Robot Pilot of Ron's plane, voiced K.I.T.T. in the classic '80s TV show "Knight Rider". (edit)
Ron: Possible, come quick, I need you!

Ron's exclamation when he invents the naco echos the famed words of Alexander Graham Bell... the first words he spoke when he invented the telephone. (edit)
Kim: "He's calling himself 'The Ron'"

New York entrepreneur and host of The Apprentice Donald Trump calls himself "The Donald." "The Ron" is a play on this nickname. (edit)
Drakken: New evil lair, 39 million dollars. New laser...

This is a reference to the ever-popular "there are some things money can't buy. For everything else, there's Mastercard" advertisements. (edit)
