  • This was way hilarious.

    Yes, the title says it: It was waay funny. I liked how Kim and Ron switched brains, and how they had to deal with each other's lives. Of course, they managed to do in the end, and it was a happy ending (as if it should not be. Duh)
    And I was about to fell out of my chair when that dude in Drakken's body was sitting and eating dinner with the Possible Family. And what Mr. Possible said. I laughed long and well after that one. Esle, the plot was well written, and the story went well.
    All in all, a great episode. 9.3/10moreless

  • This episode is about when Kim and Ron switch boodies and when Drakken switches bodies with another person.

    When Kim receives a call for help from Dr. Drakken, she discovers that it's really a military private who Drakken has switched minds with. Kim and Ron go to help rescue Private Dobbs, but wind up in the brain switch machines themselves. Kim and Ron now have to live with being in each others bodies while trying to figure out where Drakken and the Brain Switch machine is; though they soon realize that they both have it harder than they thought because Ron gets bullied and Kim has to put up with Bonnie. My favorite part of this episode was actually everything that I just explained but there was a little suspense I think. What really made this episode not so good was I think the who Drakken switches bodies with. That characters voice was sort of an accent of the cowboys you know something like that.moreless

    Built and protected by the military, the Neutronalizer is very important. So much, in fact, Drakken is willing to switch brains with the soldier guarding it to gain access. Private Dobbs (now in Drakken's body!) seeks Kim and Ron's help, but they, too, fall victim to Drakken's brain-switch machine.

    What this episode lacks in originality (and, given the basic premise, it is truly lacking), it more than makes up for in humorous situations. Mr. Dr. Possible's laid-back reaction to the predicament and any scene with Ron adjusting to his new...physical environment are funny, but the best moment has to be Shego's reaction to Drakken finding out his body is missing.

    "Mind Games" is pretty entertaining.moreless

  • Drakken uses a brain switch machine in order to steal a powerful government weapon called a Nuetronalizer. In the process, Kim and Ron get their brains switched and spend the day as each other.moreless

    "Mind Games" was truly a great watch. Although, it was rather obvious that Kim and Ron would get mind swapped, and it was kind of dumb that Kim kept her voice while she was in Ron's body and visa versa, but it was still well done. What I loved the most was the great dialogue. My favorite was Ron's "dumb skills" line. Classic! The episode was filled with very funny moments, like Kim trying to teach Ron her mad cheerleading moves, and then being forced to do it herself, in Ron's body. Kim's run in with Bonnie in the bathroom, and Ron's hair flippy moment. The villains were really great, especially Drakken. I love it when he's menacing, even to Shego. And did you notice that Drakken and Shego actually defeated Team Possible. If it wasn't for a little energy snafu, they would have taken over the world. "Mind Games" is a well written, well acted, and well done piece of entertainment.moreless

    • Ron and Kim shouldn't have kept their own voices when they switched bodies, because voices are part of the body, not the brain. Edit

    • Star Trek: The first brain switch sequence where the images of Kim and Ron ghost out and switch bodies is based on the opening scene from the final Star Trek original series episode Turnabout Intruder where Dr. Janice Lester (an old flame with vengeance on her mind) uses an alien machine to switch bodies with Captain Kirk.
