Kim Possible: A Stitch in Time

***Kim Possible: A Sitch in Time*** is a 2003 American made-for-TV animated film by Walt Disney Television Animation. It is the first film based on the original television series *Kim Possible*. The film was directed by Steve Loter for the Disney Channel, and was created with a mix of traditional and computer-generated animation. The starring voices are Christy Carlson Romano as the title character and Will Friedle as her sidekick and best friend Ron Stoppable. This is the first feature-length film based on the *Kim Possible* TV show, followed by *So the Drama* in 2005.

## Plot

Kim Possible is a high-school cheerleader and world-famous crime fighter, and Ron Stoppable is her faithful sidekick and best friend, who has a pet naked mole-rat
 named Rufus. The film begins at the start of a new school year, which
Ron has good hopes for, until he finds out he's moving away to Norway for his mother's work. Meanwhile, Dr. Drakken, Shego, Duff Killigan, and Monkey Fist team up to steal the Time Monkey idol, a small magic statuette
 used to travel through time. Kim chases the villains around the globe,
but she fails to stop them from stealing the Time Monkey's pieces and
activating it.

Kim is visited by a talking mole-rat from the future, a
descendant of Rufus named Rufus 3000, who gives Kim a time-travel device
 and explains that the "Supreme One" has taken over the world in the
future and she is the only one that can prevent it. Meanwhile, Drakken,
Killigan, and Monkey Fist turn themselves into children and travel back
in time to Kim's first day in pre-school in order to discourage her from
 becoming a crime-fighter. Posing as her schoolmates, the villains try
to bully the four-year-old Kim, but she fights them off and becomes
friends with four-year-old Ron, while the high-school-age Kim arrives
through a time portal to fight Shego.

Foiled, the villains turn back into adults and escape forward in
time, to the day of Kim and Ron's first adventure. Monkey Fist goes into
 the ancient past and retrieves a giant stone gorilla to attack pre-teen
 Kim and Ron, but they destroy it with the help of their present-day
selves. During the fight, Shego is visited by herself from the future,
who urges her to steal the Time Monkey. Drakken, Killigan, and Monkey
Fist are arrested, but Shego escapes with the Time Monkey into the
future. Rufus 3000 arrives and reveals to Kim that the Supreme One is
Shego and not Drakken as she originally thought. Kim then activates a
portal and she, Ron, Rufus, and Rufus 3000 go twenty years into the
future to stop her.

In the future, Shego has become dictator
 of the world and enslaved the global population. Kim and Ron are
captured and sent to their old high school to be brainwashed into
obedience, but they are rescued by Kim's younger twin brothers, Tim and
Jim, along with Rufus 3000 and an army of naked mole-rats. Kim and Ron
are taken to the secret headquarters of the resistance movement, whose
leader turns out to be their old computer guru Wade Load. Together, they sneak into Shego's palace, where they fight their way past Monkey Fist and Killigan (now a cyborg)
 to Shego's throne room where she keeps the Time Monkey. Shego is
waiting for them however, and has Kim engage in battle with Drakken, who
 has undergone genetic enhancements to become super-humanly strong.
Kim's old friend Monique,
 also a part of the resistance, breaks into the palace to assist her,
but the two are eventually defeated while Jim, Tim, Wade, and Rufus 3000
 are captured by Killigan and Monkey Fist.

Shego reveals that she separated Kim and Ron by making money in the dot-com bubble,
 buying the company that Ron's mother worked for and having her
transferred to Norway, her reason being that while together, Kim and Ron
 actually made a decent team, but if they were apart, they couldn't stop
 her. Angered at Shego for having made him move to Norway, Ron
overpowers Drakken and accidentally destroys the Time Monkey, undoing
all the effects the idol had done to the time stream. This causes Kim,
Ron, and Rufus to float through a time gate and travel back to the first
 scene of the film, at the end of Kim and Ron's first day as high school
 seniors. At the moment when the first time disturbance occurred, a wave
 of temporal distortion washes over Kim and Ron. When it passes, Shego's
 future is erased and the world is restored to its original state, the
two teens having lost all memory of the film's events.
