History Recap / KimPossibleS3E8RappinDrakken

* GenreSavvy: When Kim is battling Shego, Drakken presses the button to launch his "hypertronic devastator drone."
-->'''Kim''': Wait, no countdown?\\
'''Shego''': No, no, he's actually learning.\\
'''Drakken''': During the time it takes the computer voice to count down from twenty, you always manage to defeat me!

'''Drakken:''' During the time it takes the computer voice to count backwards from ten, you always manage to defeat me. Not anymore!

-->'''

* ApatheticTeacher: Mr. Barkin responds to the request to have class outside when it is thundering and lightninging outside, something he should really be fired for.

-->'''Kim:''' Wow, Drakken's self-foiling now, spankin'!

* SelfDisposingVillain: Drakken's horrible marketing of Lather, Rinse, Obey turns off basically everyone from wanting to buy it without any outside help from Kim.

--> '''Drakken''': Bada-bing! Instant fame!\\
'''Shego''': [[FifteenMinutesOfFame For fifteen minutes!]]\\
'''Drakken''': That's ''all I need.''

-->'''Judge''': Not only can't you sing, your clothes are simply dreadful, and your freakish overbite frightens small mammals!
-->''[Contestant shows his overbite.]''
-->'''Rufus''': ''(squeals in terror and hides his head in the couch.)''

-->'''Kim''': Wait, no countdown?\\
'''Shego''': No, no. He's actually [[TaughtByExperience learning]].\\
'''Drakken''': During the time it takes the computer voice to count backwards from ten, you always manage to defeat me. Not anymore!

--->'''Ron''': (''Holding out a metal piece'') Uh, dude, [[AreTheseWiresImportant is this important]]?\\
'''Drakken''': [''gasps''] THE GYROSCOPIC CONTROL UNIT! Where'd you get this?\\
'''Ron''': Yeah, well, we actually snuck in by climbing up your whatever-it-is...\\
'''Drakken''': Hypertronic Devastator Drone!\\
'''Ron''': Yes, and I slipped, and I had to kinda grab on to something, and it kinda snapped off.\\
'''Drakken''': Without the gyroscopic control unit, the drone will--! (''alarm blares; Drakken looks up to see the drone falling out of the sky, making a dive bomb right toward his lair'') ...[[OhCrap instantly crash]]. '''''YOU BUFFOON!'''''\\
'''Ron''': Ah, I do what I can.

--> '''Judge''': But according to our computers, and we don't know how this happened, we have one final contestant to challenge you: ''Kim Possible!''
--> '''Drakken''': W-whaa...?
* PissTakeRap: Drakken and Ron both try their hand at it on [[Series/AmericanIdol "American Starmaker"]].

** Wade agrees with Ron and points out to Kim that American Starmaker's a very popular show (it has millions of viewers), so a lot of people will see Drakken perform his song. Wade also notes that, on the chance Drakken ends up actually winning the show (whether or not it's through honest means), he could get anything from a record contract to movie/TV-deals.
* ShoutOut: "American Starmaker" is an obvious parody of ''Series/AmericanIdol'', right down to having the rude, critical judge (an obvious parody of [=AI=]'s judge, Music/SimonCowell).

-->'''Kim''': No...
-->'''Ron''': It can't be...
-->'''Kim''': And yet, it is.
-->'''Ron''': You think your skin was crawling before?
-->'''Wade''': ''(via the Kimmunicator)'' Kim, are you watching?!
-->'''Kim''': Yup. But not believing.

-->'''Ron''': (''Holding out a metal piece'') Uh, dude, [[AreTheseWiresImportant is this important]]?\\

* ProductPlacement: After Shego comments on how people often buy stuff mentioned in popular songs, Drakken gets the idea to convince MC Honey to mention his shampoo in one of her rap songs. After she rejects him, Drakken decides to become a rap star himself.
** This trope is actually lampshaded by Team Possible--when Kim expresses some skepticism about people buying up Drakken's shampoo just because raps about it in a song. But Ron points out that real-life products mentioned in songs usually end up becoming pretty popular--Wade agrees with Ron and adds that American Starmaker is a very popular, so millions of people will see Drakken perform. Wade also notes that on the chance that Drakken actually ends up winning the show, he could get anything from a record to movie/TV-deals.
* ShoutOut: "American Starmaker" is an obvious parody of ''Series/AmericanIdol'', right down to having the rude, critical judge (an obvious parody of [=AI=]'s judge, Simon Cowell).

** Both Kim and Wade have the same opinion of toe nail fungus: "Eww uggh!".

** The stuff apparently take a long time to wear off (if it ever does), considering that the guinea-pig henchman is seen ''still'' clucking like a chicken after the shampoo is shipped out, stocked on store shelves, and returned for failing to sell....

** This trope is actually lampshaded by Team Possible, when Kim questions Ron and Wade if people would actually buy up Drakken's shampoo just because he mentions it in a rap song. Ron points out to Kim that stuff talked about in songs usually becomes pretty popular--Wade also notes that millions of people watch ''American Starmaker'', so on the chance that Drakken actually ends up winning the show (whether or not it's through fair means and whether or not people start buying up his shampoo), he could get anything from a record contract to movie/TV-deals.

'''Shego''': For fifteen minutes!\\
