"Perfect"

I LOVE this episode!!! :) It is my second favorite episode of Kim Possible, and I love it so much! Especially the song, "Say the Word". Here's my full summary of this episode, Hidden Talent:

So, there is a talent competition that will be hosted at Middleton High School. Ron goes over to the sign up board. Kim thinks he's signing him self in it and she's proud of him, but then she finds out that he actually signed her up in stead. She was afraid because ever since she had a solo when she was a preteen in Silent Night at a Christmas Concert, she could never hit the high notes and made a complete fool out of herself. But at the night of the competition, Drakken locks Kim underwater where she will get destroyed, but thanks to Wade, she gets herself to the top of the water where she finds there is ice that is blocking her escape plan. She then hits the high notes and breaks all of the ice. While she is escaping, Rufus signs Ron in the talent show before Kim, to stall. He does a comedy act, but then Kim gets there in time, she sings her song, Say the Word, beautifully, and guess what? You will never guess who won if you haven't seen this episode. RON! :)
:D It was a totally awesome episode, next to Emotion Sickness.moreless

When Ron signs Kim up for the talent show without her permission, Kim needs to think of a way to not make a fool of herself but still have a chance to perform better than Bonnie. However, when Wade requests Kim take an unorthodox mission and offers her some unorthodox instructions, Kim and Ron discuss the talent show while performing Wade's obscure requests; though Kim soon discovers her hidden talent, which may just save the day and her performance. I liked this episode very much because we see Kim sing. We also see Ron do his talents which won the talent competition. Another part of this episode that I liked was to see Kim use her new gadget which looks like a ring but is also a kimmunicator/lazar.moreless

so this episode is really good. ron signs kim up for a talent compitition. Bonnie gives kim a hard time about it and haunts her atleast 3 times a day telling her that she owns the talent show and she will win and kim should just quit while she is ahead. Drakken sets kim up and kim gets stuck underwater in a steal cage with a shark and large squid. this is one of my favorite kim possible saves that she does. she makes it to the compitition and neither, bonnie or kim win. ron does. ron won because of saving more time for kim.moreless

"Great"

When this show works well, it delivers a balanced mix of action slapstick and surprisingly well observed coming of age moments, and this episode is a good example. It begins with Bonnie being her usual hypercompetitive self. There is an upcoming talent show. And she intends to win. So Ron signs Kim up, forcing her to deal with her flashbacks to earlier school pageant traumas. Complicating things further, Ron and Kim must also deal with Dementor AND Drakken, with no time to rehearse. Will they be back in time for the show? Will they even still be alive to perform? Great suspense, wild slapstick caper action, cleverly blended into the usual teen trauma of the week, in this case school pageants. One of my favorite episodes.moreless

- When Ron performs his "fire breath" trick, he accidentally burns the judges' hair, but after approximately thirty seconds, the judges are shown again, only with their hair back in full. Edit
- Interestingly, this is only the second and most recent time Kim has sung during an episode. This is in sharp contrast with Christy Carlson Romano's more frequent performances as Ren on the show Even Stevens. Edit
- The close captioning refers to Drakken as 'Draken'. Edit

ADD NOTES
- "Say the Word," written by Danny Jacob and Janis Liebhart. Edit
- Animation Production by: Starburst Animation Co., Ltd Kim sings "Say the Word" (though not the version heard on the KP soundtrack) for the talent competition. Edit

- Dr. Drakken: With this teleportation module, I shall be able to instantly transport myself into any high-security area I please! Think of the possibilites, Shego! Fort Knox! The Louvre Shego: Or into the "10 Items or Less" line? With 11 items, huh? Dr. Drakken: Exactly! Wait. Was that a serious suggestion or are you mocking me? Shego: Yeah, I'd say about 30% serious, 70% mock. Edit
- Kim: (to Drakken) Which part of "she can do anything" do you not comprehend? Edit
- Dr. Drakken: (describing this episode's death device for Kim, displaying charts) First, you will be sealed inside a reinforced, titanium box. The box shall then be dropped into this bottomless chasm. Next, I will fill the chasm with water. Then, sharks and a man-eating squid will be released into the water, and finally, I will freeze over the top of the water with a 6-foot-thick sheet of ice. . . Shego: Wait, wait, wait, wait... If the chasm is "bottomless," how can you fill it with water? (pause) Dr. Drakken: It's very, very deep, all right?! Edit

ADD ALLUSIONS
- Transportulator: Despite what he may think, Dr. Dementor is not the first to create this device. The precursor device is the "Modemizer", created by Professor Norton Nimnul almost 20 years ago in the Rescue Rangers episode A Fly in the Ointment. Edit
- Thunderball: Drakken's plan mirrors Largo's trap in Thunderball In Hidden Talent: Dr. Drakken puts Kim in a box under water and seals off the top of the water with ice, sharks are then released into the water through trap doors. Also, Kim uses her class ring from Wade as a re-breather to swim to safety. In James Bond 007 Thunderball: James is fighting with a henchman when they both fall into a swimming pool. Largo, the villain activates a cover that slides over the water trapping them. he then opens a trap door to his shark tank which then lets the sharks into the pool who then eat the henchman. 007 escapes by using the rebreather disguised as a cigar case that "Q" gave to him earlier in the movie. (he swims through the door the sharks came through, rather than breaking out of the top of the water though) Edit
- M. C. Honey: Reference to the 80s rapper M. C. Hammer, who popularised the "baggy pants" look. He dropped out of the scene in the late 90s, along with a bankruptcy filing. He's currently an ordained minister and can be seen in the reality show The Surreal Life. Edit
