Added DiffLines:

* NeverSayDie: The characters use phrases like "get rid of her," "destroy," "gone," and "out of existence" to describe Kim's condition rather than explicitly mention death. Amusingly, the one exception is in the title of the magazine article that inspired Drakken, which was meant to be figurative until Drakken decided to interpret it literally.


Added DiffLines:

* [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim Why Don't You Just Shoot Her?]]: Drakken foolishly chose a very indirect and flawed method to assassinate Kim, despite proving just how easy it is for him and especially Shego to sneak up on her in her public life.

Added DiffLines:

* AccidentalMurder: Very narrowly averted, as Jim and Tim's attempt to embarrass Kim while she's on her date are unrelated to Drakken and Shego's attempt to kill her and they likely weren't aware of her condition, yet [[NiceJobBreakingItHero they contribute the most to almost killing their sister when they play a video of a toddler Kim playing in the bathtub]].


Added DiffLines:

* TooDumbToLive: Kim isn't normally prone to this sort of behavior, but while being aware of the life-threatening situation she's in, she knowingly chooses to expose herself by accepting Josh's offer to go out on a date, and continues on with the date even as she continues to vanish from Drakken and Shego's actions embarrassing her in front of Josh. On top of it she doesn't let Ron know, causing him to arrive to an empty Possible house with the flower while Kim is at a nearby park and has almost entirely vanished.

* ForgotAboutHisPowers: the "Wade-bot" launches itself off a cliff in the Amazon with Ron and Rufus. Wade only remembers after the leap that he forgot to install the parachute. Yet just a few minutes earlier the Wade-bot had a hang-glider attachment to save Ron and Rufus from plummeting down a waterfall. Conveniently, he forgets about this gizmo once it could be useful again.

Dr. Drakken is back, with a new tactic. Instead of attacking Kim directly, he'll spray her with the pollen of a rare flower, which causes her to start fading out of existence when she suffers embarrassment. Now Ron has to get the antidote, but with Kim defying her grounding to go on a date, time is running out. Can Ron save Kim before she gets embarrassed out of existence?

* LiteralMetaphor: A subtle example -- the flower pollen Drakken uses on Kim causes the target to start ''actually'' disappearing when they become embarrassed (and thus ''wish'' they could just disappear).
