Episode Summary

Jack stupidly sells all his Shen-Gong-Wu, except for the Monkey Staff, in order to buy robot parts so he can build a robot servant named Yes-bot. He sells them to Pandabubba, the criminal and economic mastermind that works in Hong Kong's underworld. Pandabubba sends his henchmen all over Hong Kong, equipped with the Shen-Gong-Wu, to loot. The Xiaolin Warriors must figure out a way to stop them, but their faith lacks in Raimundo, as he still isn't a Xiaolin Apprentice. But once Omi, Kimiko and Clay are captured, Master Fung must trust Raimundo to save the day. And once he does, he becomes a Xiaolin Apprentice.moreless

    I'm glad Raimundo finally caught up with Clay, Kimiko, and Omi. He's smarter than he looks. But what I don't understand is why didn't Omi treat Raimundo as a dragon warrior equal, just because he was last to become apprentice doesn't mean he should treat him like a newbee. That is discrimination. What is Omi's damage? Is he like threatened that Raimundo has better street and book smarts/skills than him or what? There is a wise saying he should know; the flower that blossoms last, blossoms the best. In other words; late bloomers excel better. Or something like that. Anyway, congradulations Rai!moreless

    Jack sells the wu except for the Monkey Staff so that he can build new robots. He sells them to Pandabubba. Pandabubba sends his henchmen all over Hong Kong, equipped with the Shen-Gong-Wu, to loot. The Xiaolin Warriors must figure out a way to stop them, but their faith lacks in Raimundo, as he still isn't a Xiaolin Apprentice. But once Omi, Kimiko and Clay are captured, Master Fung must trust Raimundo to save the day. And once he does, he becomes a Xiaolin Apprentice. My favorite part of this episode is when Raimundo fools Pandabubba's henchmen. I hope you liked this episode very much.moreless

  • Jack Spicer sold most of his Shen Gong Wu to Pandabubba for robot parts. Also, Raimundo finally gets to be a Xiaolin Apprentice after the gang doesn't trust him and Master Fung thinks that Rai is the only one who understands the situation.moreless

    Kudos to Raimundo! He gets promoted to a Xiaolin Apprentice! It's another turning point in Xiaolin Showdown history. No one trusts Raimundo in this episode and once again, Omi brings up the events of the past to anger Raimundo (a.k.a.- Raimundo not being promoted to Xiaolin Apprentice when the others did). When the others get tricked by Jack Spicer, Raimundo understood the full situation of what is going on and Rai's plan is put in action. He lets himself get caught to rescue the other Apprentices. The episode ends with Raimundo getting promoted to a Xiaolin Apprentice, the Dragon X-Kumei Formation is born, and Raimundo is talking about the changes that should be done.moreless

    First, Omi is the most hideous person on earth. I can almost believe the crystal glasses depicting his treachery now. Second, Master Fung is really nice to trust Rai. Third, Raimundo is really cool to defeat Pandabubba like that. He deserves to be apprentice far more than the others. This episode really made me wonder just what plan Raimundo was cooking up and the three-way xiaolin showdown was so awesome and entertaining! Pandabubba was a jolly sinister crook and I didn't understand why the rest of the warriors believed Jack. Still, Raimundo was right not to be apprentice then, 'cause he surely deserves it now.moreless

    • How did Panda Bubba use the tangel web comb so easily against Kimiko and Clay while Kimiko struggled to learn to use it? Edit
    • Omi, Kimiko and Clay aren't very appreciative of what Raimundo did in Citadel of Doom, it was Raimundo who saved them from being crushed, it was him who stopped Wuya, and he could have easily accepted the Apprentice rank. And so far, they've done nothing to make it up to him. Edit
    • If Omi was going to fall in the lava, why didn't he just use the shroud of shadows to float on the rock like they did with the volcano on The Night of the Saphire Dragon since he claims to be such a excellent apprentice. Edit

    • Raimundo: You want this Shen Gong Wu, you're gonna have to go through me! PandaBubba's HenchMan: We're good with that. Edit
    • Pandabuba: What Sheng-Gong-Wu do we have to add to my collection. Black Bodyguard: We got some good ones boss. White Bodyguard: The Stick of Throwing. Black Bodyguard: The Large Rock of Hitting. White Bodyguard: And the Shoes of Running Real Fast. Pandabuba: You Fools!! Where are the REAL Sheng-Gong-Wu?! Jack: Looks like you've been double-crossed by a double-crosser!! (Shut Jack's mouth by putting an apple in his mouth) Edit
    • Wuya: You traded the most powerful objects in the world for robot parts?! Jack: ... I kept the Monkey Staff. Edit

  • Allusions

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Reference: Yes-bot. This could be a referrence to the Yes-bots in Toontown the online virtual game from Disney. Edit
    • Reference: Chinatown Since the episode title has nothing to do with the story, it must parody 1974's Chinatown. The animators probably couldn't get rights to it (rights to Chinatown are owned by Paramount.) This would also explain why Wuya's quote is not a parody of the famous last line, "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." Edit
    • Reference: The Matrix When Pandabubba's henchmen are fighting Raimundo in the spiral stair that houses the Shen-Gong-Wu, there are several instances where the animators used "bullet time." The music that plays during this sequence may or may not be the theme from The Matrix trilogy. If it is not, it is a very similar knock-off. However, there's a chance it just might be since Warner Brothers owns both this show and the Matrix franchise. Edit
