Ronald "Ron" Stoppable is the deuteragonist of the Disney Channel animated series Kim Possible. He is an eccentric high school student who is the lifelong best friend and faithful sidekick of Kim Possible, eventually becoming her boyfriend at the end of the show's third season. He also has a pet naked mole rat named Rufus. Ron is of a Jewish family and therefore celebrates Hanukkah, but as shown in the Christmas episode, "A Very Possible Christmas", he also enjoys joining Kim and her family for their Christmas traditions.
At the start of "A Very Possible Christmas", Ron shows up at Kim's house, looking forward to watching his favorite holiday TV special, The Six Tasks of Snowman Hank. Unfortunately, he is devastated to learn that the special's annual telecast has been cancelled in favor of showing an extreme winter sports program titled Xtreme Xmas. To cheer him up, Kim gives him his Hannukah present - a digital photo album of the times they've had together. Touched by this gift, Ron realizes that the Bueno Nacho coupons he had planned on giving Kim wouldn't be good enough for her. When he then learns that Shego has stolen an experimental power battery for Dr. Drakken, Ron decides that to go foil Drakken's world-domination plan himself so that Kim can have the night off to spend Christmas with her family.
Ron manages to stop Drakken from successfully launching his "Drak-Force One" rocket, but in the battle that follows, they set off the rocket's self-destruct sequence and are forced to escape in the garbage disposal unit (due to accidentally launching the escape pods earlier). The two bumblers land in the Arctic and spend much of their time arguing over whose fault it is that they're in this predicament. After escaping from a polar bear, Ron and Drakken learn that they're both fans of Snowman Hank and form a truce to keep the memory of their favorite special alive.
