Mascot Tryouts and Ron's Meeting

"Next", sighs Ron. So far, he hadn't found anyone as agile as he was to do the Mad Dog. Bonnie and Kim sensed his disappointment and decided to help him as best as they can. He then sees a girl wearing the Mad Dog's head start the routine.

To his, Bonnie and Kim's surprise, she nails it perfectly. Ron looks at the list and frowns. All the names on the try-out list had been crossed out.

He then asks, "Who are you?"

The girl replies, "I'm the Mad Dog. At least, I hope I am."

Ron looks at them both and they nod. He then nods and says, "Welcome aboard, Mad Dog. You meet the criteria we are looking for. Your first pep rally is on Friday, at 2:50 in the afternoon."

Overjoyed, the girl grasps the squeeze-ball and shakes her head about, spraying the foam all over the place. Ron, Bonnie and Kim laugh and applaud their approval.

The girl runs outside, screaming in joy. She then pulls off the head, revealing a wheezing, young African-American girl named Monique Thompson.

Monique then says, "Kim, girl, you are going to so owe me." She then looks back into the gym and sees Ron rise up, his cane in hand. A tear rolls down her cheek as she recalls what Kim told her. She then slams her fist into her palm and says, "The jerk responsible better not be anyone I know, or like." She then walks away from the door, fuming as she walks. She doesn't see Norman walk to the door behind her.

Norman goes into the gym and sees Ron with Kim and Bonnie. He then says, "Ron Stoppable, I'd like to talk to you for a moment, alone."

Kim and Bonnie look at Ron, who simply shrugs and says, "Sure, no problem." To Kim, he says, "I'm sure it's no big. I'll meet you at your locker, KP. See you later, Bon-Bon." Kim and Bonnie nod and leave Ron with the man.

Ron says, "Okay, you have me alone, sir. What's the sitch?"

Norman replies, "This is the sitch. You have been selected to be a test pilot for a special project."

Ron chuckles and says, "I don't know if you've noticed or not, but I have no knee."

Norman replies, "I know. That's why you've been selected for this project. Given the criteria, you'd be perfect for it. And there is a prosthesis that can repair the damage done to you. How would you like to have an opportunity to help keep Kim Possible safe, like before?"

Ron replies, "Yeah, I would. But I already found out from the Doctor that it would be very expensive."

Norman replies, "That's what I told your predecessor when we met the second time around. He had just gotten out of the Hospital after suffering an injury like yours. But, you don't have to pay for the work to be done on you. It's taken care of by the Government."

Ron says, "I'm sensing a catch here. What is it?"

Norman replies, "As a security precaution, you are to maintain your status as a Mascot Trainer for the High School, and you cannot tell anyone, not even Kim. At least for the time being. We'll see how your first case goes and if you still want to tell her, I won't stand in your way. But she has to be able to be trusted. Do you trust her?"

Ron replies, "I do. We've pulled each other through some pretty hard times. Now for a question about you. Who the heck are you, anyway?"

Norman replies, "I'm Norman Tuttle. I'm a Government scientist assigned to the project. And I already know your next question. It's named Street Hawk."

At that, the two men leave the gym and go toward the lockers.

Josh Mankey comes out of the restroom and sees Ron. He starts burning in anger and thinks, 'They failed. How dare they? Can't they kill one miserable loser?' He then storms out of the building and heads for the salvage yard.

Meanwhile, Ron and Norman reach Kim's locker and see Kim and Bonnie with their mouths wide open. Ron asks, "What's going on, KP? You look like you saw a villain on the monitor."

Bonnie replies, "You're not too far off, Ron. Look at this."

Ron looks at the monitor and says one word, "Monkey."
