==Background==
The Bebes were initially designed and built by Drew Lipsky as girlfriends for his friends and himself when they were unable to get dates in college. This first design was crude in both design and function, which led to his colleagues' unrelenting ridicule of them and of Drew for several weeks. Having felt belittled and embarrassed by his former friends, Drew dropped out of college and became the evil villain Dr. Drakken, all the while refining the Bebes' design.

Having felt belittled and embarrassed by his former friends, Drew dropped out of college and became the evil villain Dr. Drakken, all the while refining the Bebes' design.


Years later, when Drakken resurfaced, he sent his improved and perfected Bebe robots out to kidnap his former colleagues (who were all respected scientists by this time), including Kim Possible's father, Dr. James Possible. While Kim attempted to rescue the scientists, Drakken openly gloated how the Bebe robots were perfect and made only to obey him. The Bebes, who heard this statement, processed the accuracy of the statement, questioning why, if they were perfect, they obeyed someone who was not perfect. As a result of Drakken's substandard programming, the Bebe robots rebelled against their creator, becoming independent. Kim Possible then tried to subdue the Bebes, but was soon overpowered by their speed, strength, and durability.

With Kim in distress, Dr. Possible used Kim's handheld communicator to emit a high-pitched hypersonic signal which scrambled the Bebe's Hive Mind Communication and crippled their ability to function properly. Kim was then able to destroy the Bebe robots, free the scientists, and capture Dr. Drakken.

Some time later, the Bebe Robots mysteriously reappeared, completely reassembled with upgraded strength and supersonic speed. Their new directive was to build a Bebe Assembly Line and manufacture more Bebe units. To this end, the Bebes appropriated a powerful Britina Doll Manufacturing Center and state-of-the-art Central Control Unit from a Swedish dummy factory, and built a large Bebe Hive Manufacturing Center on an uncharted island. These tasks were carried out efficiently and effectively as a result of their faster-than-light speed, which made them almost invisible.

While Kim was trapped, her crime-fighting partner, Ron Stoppable, caught up with them and released his pet naked mole rat, Rufus (who was wearing a test model of Kim's super shoes), onto the facility. After sabotaging the Bebe Factory, Rufus rescued Kim by distracting the Bebes who were forced to release Kim's legs to attempt to catch him, giving Kim the opportunity to overpower the remaining Bebes. While Kim was able to destroy the initial three Bebe robots, the manufactured Bebes began to engage against Kim. Kim, however, pointed out to them the results of Rufus' meddling: The new Bebe units had their faces put on upside down. Horrified at their imperfect appearance, the Bebe Robots short-circuited and fell to the ground, defeated once again.

The Bebes also made a significant appearance as part of the Walt Disney World "Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure" attraction in EPCOT, during the Japan episode (still voiced by Kerri Kenney-Silver). In this appearance, the Bebe robots created a "Baby Bebe" toddler offspring, which was powered by the natural elements of Earth, Fire, Water, and Air. However, the baby Bebe was unable to properly harness the elements and began throwing a tantrum throughout the country, throwing the mystical elemental energy out of balance. With help, Kim, Ron, and Wade were able to put things right while tracking down and rebooting the baby Bebe, allowing it to safely harness elemental energy. After Wade uploaded records of the baby's bad behavior to the mother Bebes, they were made to face their imperfect ability to raise a child and short-circuited. Wade then uploaded a Positive Parenting Program into the Bebes' Hive Mind, allowing them to be better role models for their offspring.

The Bebe Robots (sometimes referred to as the Killer Bebes) are robotic warrior women from the animated television series Kim Possible. They were voiced by Kerri Kenney.

Background

The Bebes were initially designed and built by Drew Lipsky as girlfriends for himself and his friends when they were unable to get dates in college. This first design, however, was crude in both design and function, which led to his colleagues' unrelenting ridicule of them and of Drew for several weeks. Having felt belittled and embarrassed by his former friends, Drew dropped out of college and became the evil villain Dr. Drakken, all the while refining the Bebes' design.

Years later, when Drakken resurfaced, he sent his improved and perfected Bebe robots out to kidnap his former colleagues (who were all respected scientists by this time), including Kim Possible's father, Dr. James Possible. While Kim attempted to rescue the scientists, Drakken openly gloated how the Bebe robots were perfect and made only to obey him. The Bebes, who heard this statement, processed its accuracy, questioning why, if they were perfect, they obeyed someone who was not perfect. As a result of Drakken's substandard programming, the Bebe robots rebelled against their creator, becoming independent. Kim Possible then tried to subdue the Bebes, but was soon overpowered by their speed, strength, and durability.

With Kim in distress, Dr. Possible used Kim's handheld communicator to emit a high-pitched hypersonic signal which scrambled the Bebe's Hive Mind Communication and crippled their ability to function properly. Kim was then able to destroy the Bebe robots, free the scientists, and capture Dr. Drakken.

Some time later, the Bebe Robots mysteriously reappeared, completely reassembled with upgraded strength and supersonic speed. Their new intention was to build a Bebe Assembly Line and manufacture more Bebe units. To this end, the Bebes appropriated a powerful Britina Doll Manufacturing Center and state-of-the-art Central Control Unit, and built a large Bebe Hive Manufacturing Center on an uncharted island. These tasks were carried out efficiently and effectively as a result of their faster-than-light speed, which made them almost invisible.

Recognizing the potential threat Kim Possible posed, The Bebes determined that they needed a Queen. After they overheard Kim venting loudly about her cheerleading rival, Bonnie Rockwaller, they set out to make Bonnie their queen.

Kim Possible was able to keep up with the super fast Bebe Robots with the use of special Valkyrie 1000 super-speed shoes. Kim found their Hive Command Center, with Bonnie connected to the Hive Mind, which tapped into Bonnie's sub-conscious. When the Bebes attacked, Kim found that the Bebes had begun to assimilate with Bonnie's catty, A-Lister teen personality, picking up on some of Bonnie's teen slang and attitude.

As Kim and the Bebes fought, the Bebes activated the Bebe Assembly Line, which began manufacturing a Bebe Robot army to spread the Bebes' Perfection, expand their Queen Bonnie's influence, and take over the human race. Once again, the Bebes proved to be too much for Kim, as they subdued Kim's arms and legs and placed her on the conveyor belt, where she would be crushed and "Bebe-fied".

While Kim was trapped, her crime-fighting partner, Ron Stoppable, caught up with them and released his pet naked mole rat, Rufus (who was wearing a test model of Kim's super shoes), onto the facility.

Kim, however, pointed out to them the results of Rufus' meddling: The new Bebe units had their faces put on upside down. Horrified at their imperfect appearance, the Bebe Robots short-circuited and fell to the ground, defeated once again.
