Trivia[]
- The outfit Athena wears resembles Kim Possible's new mission outfit that first appeared in "Clothes Minded" from the TV series.
- She is just like Bebe the Android that Dr. Drakken made to be perfect in the animated series.
- She is also similar to Eric from "So the Drama". Both are androids created by Dr. Drakken with a human appearance with the sole purpose of infiltrating Kim's life. Unlike Eric, who has no redeeming change of character or remorse for his actions, Athena ends up turning a leaf and becoming a genuine friend and teammate to Kim and Ron.
