Memorable Quotes

 * Ron: Giant amphibious naked mole rat! One o'clock!
 * Kim: Ron, that's a manatee.
 * Kim: You are planning to destroy the Internet with old can of meat?
 * Frugal: Yes, I get expired food free and death rays are expensive.
 * Kim: OK, Lucre! Cough up the sausages.
 * Ron: Ew! Rephrase, please.
 * Kim: I gotta admit, Lucre. Your bargain-brand villainy was right up there with big-budget evil.
 * Frugal: You might have stopped me this time, Kim Possible. But Frugal Lucre will return. (Laughs) If my mom bails me out.

Errors

 * When Kim and Ron arrive at Francis's door step, Kim's finger is ready to press the door bell in the middle of the door. But when they do a close up, her finger is in the side of the door, getting ready to press the door bell.
 * When Kim paid for the Club Banana pants, she pulled the money out of her pocket despite the fact that she was wearing the new pants, in which she wouldn’t have had money within them. Also, the huge shirt Kim was wearing because she needed new pants didn’t have any pockets, so it seems illogical that Kim could pull the money out of her pocket when she didn’t have any pockets to hold the money in the first place.
 * When Kim is uploading Frugal's file from the personnel manager's computer (upload in progress), the buttons on the front of the Kimmunicator are missing.
 * When Kim and Ron confront Lucre in his house, he traps them in a net. Yet when they first enter the basement, there is no net on the floor.
 * When Kim is in disguise to sneak into the personal manager's office, her hair is tied in a ponytail by a band. When she takes off her hat, her hair comes undone on its own, as if it was pulled through the hat's adjuster.
 * When Kim was looking at the pants, they are different colors, but when she starts running after Lucre, they're all one color.
 * When Kim and Ron enter the Smarty Mart where Francis works, there are no alarms by the doors, but when Kim snaps the alarm tag on his store vest, there are alarms at the store doors all of a sudden.
 * When Ron says 'Steel Toe versus Pain King!' his mouth doesn't move.
 * During the episode when Kim is in her causal clothing her skin is pink but when she's in her mission clothes she in her normal tan.

Allusions

 * Smarty Mart is a reference to the big department stores, such as Wal-Mart, in which those stores have nearly everything available and offer huge discounts on their wares.
