    Kim and the family take a trip to Florida to visit Nana Possible. With Nana being extra doting, Kim finds it a little hard to breathe...or stop Drakken and Shego's latest scheme.

    Even with a few promising elements here (Drakken's ultimate plan to control people's minds through their mp3 players, his and Shego's cover), I couldn't help but feel that this episode was coasting - a common problem with most of this season.

    Debbie Reynolds adds some class and her character's background is most intriguing...which makes the shoe-horned-in "Shaft" reference all the clumsier.

    And speaking of clumsy, what about Ron? No, really, what about him? Much like Kim's scenes in "Exchange", Ron's bits (which consist solely of him being rebuffed by college girls on spring break) are entirely negligible and could have been cut out.

    "Golden"? Try bronze.moreless

    Kim, Ron, and the Possible family head to Florida to help Kim's grandmother unpack at her new home. Can Kim fight against her grandmother's over protectiveness? well the answer is a yes. Meanwhile, Drakken and Shego accidentally create an army of old people instead of teens, and Kim's Nana ( grandmother ) is one of them. Can Kim fight her own Nana? That is a question that you will have to answer yourself so see the episode. My favorite part of this episode is when Rufus ends up being popular on the beach and Ron is just named by a lot of girls as a loser.moreless

  • Kim and the fam head down to Florida to help Nana Possible move into her new retirement home...dragging Ron along, naturally. Unfortunately, somebody else is there, with his own plans.

    One of my top ten episodes, mainly because it's actually such fun to watch. There are all sorts of gems in here, such as Bed-Head Kim, or Kim in her purple shorts. Even the music is good - sounding something like Credenence Clearwater Revival (call them CCR here and peeps get confused)

    I love how we get to see where so much of what make Kim Kim comes from, right down to the green eyes (You have to pay attention, Nana's irises are kinda small.)

    The only thing that takes points off is how they dragged Ron down in this one, until the very last scene at the gator farm. Even Kim called him a froob (whatever that is.)moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • Dr. Drakken presents Kim with a large file of research that he did on Nana Possible, and yet he is surprised that Kim (a high-profile person in her own right) is Nana's grand-daughter. It is very odd that the relationship never came up in all that research performed by Drakken. Edit
    • As the party starts in Drakken's swamp lair, Ron is standing in front of a crowd. A moment later, the crowd behind him is gone and two girls hoist him up to a stage that wasn't there before. Edit
    • The orange-haired girl who gives Ron the "L...to the O...to the S-er" line is wearing a two-piece bathing suit when she does so. However, when Rufus points out "My fans" to Ron, that same girl, who is cheering, is now wearing a one-piece bathing suit. Edit

    • Drakken: Behold, my army of youth! (the elderly army enters the cabin) Who are you? Nana Possible: Your army, reporting for duty. Shego: (laughs) This is your army of youth? I think you missed by about 50 years, Doc! Drakken: The signal must not have been properly tuned into the MP3 frequency. But then, what am I tapping into? (Shego removes an old man's hearing aid and puts it back) Shego: Well done, you tapped into the hearing aid frequency, Dr. D. Drakken: What am I supposed to do with an army of retired people? Ooh, lemon squares. Shego: You can have them buy you discount tickets for the movies. Drakken: These lemon squares are scrump and delicious. You know what, they're here, they're zombies, I might as well see what we can do with them. Edit
    • Ron: You know, it's amazing. In one short day I managed to earn the socially challenged rep that it took me a lifetime to cultivate back home. Rufus, on the other hand, was named honorary mascot of five different sororities. Edit

    • Robocop 3: The scene where Kim as chasing Drakken and Shego on the rocket skates is similar to Robocop 3 in the fact that Shego dropped ice cream on the street in order to get the children to block Kim's path, which prevented Kim from chasing them; this was also done in Robocop 3, but rather than ice cream, the crooks dropped money in the street to prevent Robocop from chasing them. Edit
    • Drakken: Mmm.These lemon squares are delicious. In Get a Clue (Disney Channel original movie)Mrs. Dawson made Lemon Squares and Lexi said they were delicious. Edit
