My favorite part of this episode is when we see the original form of the chicken which turns into an egg then a chicken then an egg and so on.moreless

  • An interesting, epsiode. it defies reality a bit (I know every epsiode of Xiaolin Showdown does, but this one defies common sense a bit, too).

    Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on a second. I thought oil came from dead fish, not dinosaurs! And also, if the T-Rex was female, how come it had a male English accent? The dinosaur was quite funny though, and Jack is quite funny too (but when isn't he funny?) The Xiaolin Showdown was certainly good, but since I know a lot about chess, I would, while other people who don't know about it may not approve as much. Also, an interesting new use for the Eagle Scope. I think the idea for the Rio reversal is great, but it ever more makes me wonder how these Shen Gon Wu even work. Oh well, yet another mystery that will never be solved ^_^. There are some better episodes,but this was good nonetheless.moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • Why didn't Wuya zap herself with the Rio Reverso to gain her power's back? (reply: That's because Wuya will turn herself back into a zygote just as the monks told Jack about turning him into a zygote. And even though Wuya is an immortal Heylin witch, she'll be turned into a zygote once they use the Rio Reverso on her.) Edit
    • The Chess Showdown was completly different from the real chess game (example: Moving more than a pawn at once), maybe because it was Jurassic Chess. Edit
    • How would a T-Rex know what a Xiaolin Showdown is if it is from prehistoric times? (reply: That's because when Chase used the Eagle Scope on her, the Wu gives the T-Rex the knowledge that she doesn't know like common sense even if she came from prehistoric times.) Edit

    ADD NOTES
    • Raimundo seems to be more responsible, as this is his third time in taking the rap for a big situation. (First being Bird of Paradise when he got distracted and lost the leaf, and second being Treasure of the Blind Swordsman when they lost the Treasure of the Blind Swordsman.) Edit
    • Omi makes ice hats with the Orb Of Tornami/ice, for Kimiko, Raimundo, Clay and himself. The types of hats were: Omi: Snow hat. Raimundo: A cap. Kimiko: A Berrette. Clay: A ten-gallon hat. Edit
    • In addition to it telescopic powers, it appears that the Eagle Scope allows the user to interpret a situation and also adds vital knowledge when used on a person or animals. Edit

    ADD QUOTES
    • Wuya: You ratted me out Jack! You Fink! Jack: Ya well Chase and I are now teamed up how do you like those apples. Omi: Oh so much criss-crossing this proves there is truly no honor among theives. Edit
    • (The monks are talking about what the do with the T-rex) Omi: I know! We can take her back to the temple! Clay: But Master Fung can barely feed me! Edit
    • (Wuya is about to get eaten by the T-Rex) Wuya: Jack! Use your Shen-Gong-Wu! Jack: Changing Chopsticks! (Wuya shrinks) Wuya: Not me, you fool! Jack: Changing Chopsticks! (Shrinks himself, then Wuya kicks him in the butt). Edit

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Kimiko's Wudai Fire Sheild is similar to the forcefield Goku uses in Dragon Ball Z. Edit
    • Dinosaurs Wuya and Jack bringing dinosaurs back to life is similar to Jurassic Park. Edit
    • Title: Oil in the Family The title is a parody of the classic comedy series All in the Family. Edit
