When Ron receives 99 million dollars in royalties for the Naco, he has another one of his big-headed moments and becomes a self-absorbed millionaire. At the same time, Drakken is attempting to get his overly-elaborate "Operation: Catastrophic Doom" off the ground and soon finds that Ron's wealth is just the solution he needs.
Tropes appearing in this episode:
- Acquired Situational Narcissism: As Ron is prone to.
- Actor Allusion: William Daniels voices a robot pilot, echoing his prior voiceover role of KITT.
- Artistic License – Economics: Ron never gets another royalties check after his first one, despite the fact that they should be a continuing payout rather than a single lump-sum, though it's possible that after seeing how careless he was with his first payout his parents asked Bueno Nacho to stop paying him directly for the foreseeable future.
- Artistic License – Physics: Ron carried the entire $99 million around with him in cash. Which is how Drakken and Shego were able to steal it from him. Even if each bill was the highest possible denomination, that much money would take up 40 cubic feet and weigh about a ton. It would be like he was carrying around a washing machine that weighs as much as a car in his pants.
- Brick Joke: Kim hears the saying "If you have to ask, you can't afford it". When Ron gets kidnapped by Drakken, his bodyguards move on because they literally aren't paid enough for the rescue, and repeats this line to Kim when asked for help.
- Brutal Honesty: Bonnie flat out admits that her sudden interest in Ron is entirely because he's rich. He's totally fine with that.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Mim Possible and Jonathan Stoppable's character designs are revealed via Ron's Imagine Spot two episodes before they're officially introduced (albeit with Mim having a Southern Belle accent she lacks in "Rewriting History").
- Fair-Weather Foe: Bonnie starts acting flirty with Ron, who she otherwise disdains, when he becomes rich. She even flat out admits it.
- Gilligan Cut: Ron assures Kim that this is not going to be another one of those times he goes overboard and that money will not change him. One cut later, he's dressed in extensive bling and throwing around money to everyone in sight.
- Gold Digger: Bonnie latches onto Ron like a limpet the moment she realizes he is rich. She is at least honest enough to admit it upfront.
- If I Had a Nickel...: As the Naco's creator, Ron gets a nickel every time somebody orders one. As it turns out if Ron had a nickel for every naco ordered, he'd have $99 million dollars.
- "If I had a nickel for every time I heard that [Bonnie's snide comment]... I could have grande-sized!"
- Ironic Name: Drakken and Shego argue over how Greenland and Iceland's names are backward compared to their actual climates.
- I Want You to Meet an Old Friend of Mine: Will Friedle's Boy Meets World co-star William Daniels voices the robot pilot.
- Lampshade Hanging: When confronted about his behavior, Ron surmises that Kim thinks this is another one of those times where he becomes out-of-control and goes way overboard with something.
- Self-Disposing Villain: In the end, despite having stolen Ron's entire $99 million, Drakken's latest plan basically ends up thwarting itself without Kim even needing to bother looking for him.
- Self-Serving Memory: Ron recalls how he invented the Naco, but instead of a "Bueno Nacho" clip, we get a sepia tone sequence of him and Kim in period dress.
- Status Quo Is God: By the end of the episode, those millions of dollars Ron has made are gone thanks to Drakken.
- We Want Our Jerk Back!: Kim has this attitude towards Bonnie when the latter only acts nice to Ron because he earned $99 million.
- What Is Evil?: Drakken tries to invoke this with Kim, referencing Shades of Conflict. Kim ignores him.
