History Recap / KimPossibleS1E12PainKingVsCleopatra

* HeroicSecondWind: Pain King and Steel Toe are more than content to leave the Jackal be after getting trounced. When Ron convinces them to help distract the Jackal, he tells them that they're more than just entertainers of gifted athletes--they're heroes, with two onlooking kids looking at them inspired. Cue them smirking at one another with a ThemeMusicPowerUp, before they rush over to the edge of the ring to taunt the Jackal.
--> '''Steel Toe & Pain King''': [[BringIt LET'S GET IT ON!]]

Ron takes Kim to Middleton Mall to see his favorite wrestler, Steel Toe, at a Global Wrestling Alliance event, but Kim is not a fan of wrestling and goes off to Club Banana. There she hits it off with Monique, the salesgirl, and finds that she'll soon be starting school at Middleton High. When the GWA rally gets out of control, Kim saves the day and is awarded two passes to the upcoming "Mayhem in Middleton," from GWA promoter Jackie Oaks, but she gives them to Ron and goes to an exhibit on Cleopatra at the local museum with Monique, during which, a thief makes off with an amulet.

Ron meanwhile, finds that Kim has been spending more time with Monique than him and begins to believe their friendship is over. When Kim blows off the wrestling show to go with Monique to a coffee shop, Ron & Rufus go themselves. Ron has a chance to meet Steel Toe backstage and is recruited to retrieve his idol's glasses, only to find Jackie, who turns out to be the aforementioned thief, using the stolen amulet and an ancient papyrus to transform himself into a humanoid jackal.

[[ThatManIsDead Now calling himself "the Jackal"]] the villain interrupts the wrestling match and shows off his new powers. Kim, meanwhile is surprised to learn Monique is a wrestling fan, and learns from Wade that when the amulet is combined with a spell from an ancient papyrus, could give the user the power of Anubis. Recalling that the GWA was previously in Chicago, where the papyrus was recently stolen, Kim rushes to the arena and helps battle the Jackal. With Steel Toe & Pain King's help, our heroes uses Rufus to relieve Jackie of the amulet, restoring him to normal. With the crisis over, Ron & Monique eventually bond over their love of wrestling & Bueno Nacho, while Kim comments that [[Film/{{Casablanca}} "I think this is the beginning of a very weird friendship."]]
