Kim and Ron meet a teen named Felix (the son of one of Kim's dad's coworkers), who happens to be wheelchair bound—in a super high-tech wheelchair—and who turns out to have a lot in common with Ron. Ron starts spending a lot of time with Felix, and Kim starts feeling jealous of the friendship Ron forms with Felix.
This episode provides examples of:
- Bait-and-Switch: Felix is initially introduced as the son of one of Kim’s dad’s colleagues. Their introduction is also played this way, with Ron barely acknowledging him while Kim politely introduced herself. Once Kim finds out Felix is wheelchair bound, she proceeds to make things uncomfortable around him, while Ron and Felix bond over their shared interests, becoming Heterosexual Life-Partners.
- Borrowed Catchphrase: Kim tells Motor Ed to "seriously" stop calling her Red, complete with a Brief Accent Imitation of him.
- Brief Accent Imitation: Coupled with Borrowed Catchphrase when Kim demands Motor Ed to stop calling her Red. "Seriously."
- Digging Yourself Deeper: Lampshaded and acknowledged by Kim when she keeps falling into the Disabled Means Helpless trap when discussing Felix's condition.
- Disabled Means Helpless: Kim is initially awkward about Felix being in a wheelchair, and keeps trying to be over-helpful. Fortunately, he finds it more amusing than annoying (see the I Would Say If I Could Say entry below).
- Innocently Insensitive: Kim is ironically so sensitive to Felix's condition that her constant attempts to coddle him come off more as her being patronizing than concerned, though Felix doesn't mind.
- Irony: Felix is introduced as the son of Kim’s dad’s colleague. He tells Kim about Felix, encouraging her to be his friend and the Tweebs joke about the possibility of her dating him. Felix ends up being one of the few characters who is actually closer to Ron than he is to Kim, to the point that Kim actually grew jealous of their friendship at one point.
- I Would Say If I Could Say: While guarding the MacGuffin Motor Ed is after:Kim: Okay, Felix, you go stand watch.
Felix: You mean sit watch.
(Kim is utterly mortified at her faux pas.)
Felix: Kim, I'm just playing you. - Lost My Appetite: Mr. Dr. P. is put off his dinner by Ron's recounting of how he (Ron) vomited on a clown the last time he went to the fair. Rufus is only delighted to have the food to himself.
- Open Mouth, Insert Foot: Kim just can't seem to stop herself from doing this when it comes to Felix and his condition. At least, initially.
- Super Wheelchair: Felix's wheelchair has a plethora of cool built-in gadgetry.
- Vomit Discretion Shot: When we flash back to Ron's fairground vomiting incident we don't actually see the vomit but we do see the poor clown that got splashed with it from Ron's POV. It cuts away before any puke hits the clown.
