Kimitation Nation is the 16th episode (19th produced) of the TV series Kim Possible. It marks the first appearance of Dr. Drakken's Synthodrones (or perhaps an early prototype leading to them). It also reveals that Drakken retains Shego's services under written contract.
[edit] Plot Synopsis
Kim begins the episode on a frustrated note, lamenting both the fickle, yet often excessive, nature of fashion, and the fact that Bonnie can gets to sit at the senior table, while the seniors barely notice that she is alive.
Later, during a mission to protect the remote control for a top secret orbital laser, Kim lands on the stage of a music award ceremony, right in front of Bonnie's favorite style gurus. Who proceeds to steal Kim's Cargo pants and top combination (metaphorically, at least) and to market them as the next big look. "Kimstyle", as it is dubbed, becomes an overnight sensation, spawning a line in boy's wear (Kim, for him) and even a range of designer pet wear. Kim, suddenly feeling much less unique, treats this with consternation. Until, that is, she realizes that it might get her in with the seniors.
Kim: "I'm the new Poofy Pink" (Shocked)
Unfortunately though, having her look become the latest fashion crazy doesn't win Kim the adulation of the seniors that she desires (apparently, she can't "pull off" the look, even though she invented it). It does, however, inspire Doctor Drakken to create an army of Kim clones. Unfortunately, things also don't go quite as he planned either.
Temporarily confused by the fact that everybody is wearing the same clothes (ala Kimstyle), Drakken accidentally collects a sample of DNA from the wrong gym locker and creates a trio of killer Bonnies instead. Despite them not being Kim clones, Drakken is impressed by the Bonnie clones natural hatred for Kim, and he unleashes them against his teen foes. The clones go on the rampage through Bueno Nacho, forcing Team Possible, plus the real Bonnie, to take shelter in a nearby dumpster. Naturally, Bonnie is not amused by this and has to be escorted home by Monique, though it does provide Kim with a vital piece of information. Drakken's clones are chemically unstable, and contact with soda-pop melts them.
After a running battle against the Bonnie clones and Drakken's grunts, during which clones of Rufus, then Ron, and finally Kim are also produced and unleashed, Kim douses the clones with soda, melting them all, and saving the day once more.
Meanwhile, having fallen out with Drakken over the issue of cloning (he initially wanted to clone her, even though her contract expressly forbid him from doing so), Shego has been sunning herself on the beach, tormenting small children, and appears to have acquired a new male friend.
[edit] Trivia
- After Kim found out that even Ron bought himself clothes in "Kimstyle" he explains that its "Kim for him". Ironical Rons mission outfit is already the same as Kims only without exposed belly.
