Plot[]
Failing to stay at a friend's house, due to missing Kenny the Koala, Jessie advises Luke to spend one night away from Kenny to prove he's mature and doesn't need a stuffed animal. Luke has some crazy dream about Kenny that night and struggles to sleep. Meanwhile, Kenny is "accidentally" damaged and Jessie hangs him up on a clothesline on the terrace. Then Luke and Jessie go out to get Kenny and Jessie slips and drops Kenny off the terrace and Kenny gets decapitated because he got mangled by a car. Stuart and Ravi try to fix him. Can they save Kenny before it's too late? In this episode, we find out that before Luke came to the Ross', Kenny was the only thing he had, which is why Luke is obsessed with Kenny. Stuart and Ravi fix Kenny. Luke is able to get over Kenny because Kenny now smells bad because of the operation. He also has another eye, from Zuri's doll, but Jessie mentioned that she would fix Kenny's eye in the end credits.

- This episode was going to premiere on May 17, 2013, but a rerun of "Kids Don't Wanna Be Shunned" was shown instead, because the original version was pulled and re-edited after parents complained about the gluten jokes in an on-demand version, which were felt to be insensitive to people with coeliac disease.
- The edited version of "Quitting Cold Koala" finally aired on July 5, 2013, with all gluten jokes removed.
- The title is based on the phrase "quitting cold turkey", a method of quitting smoking.
- When Luke says ''They killed Kenny!'', it is a reference to the show South Park, in which one of the main characters, Kenny McCormick would die in someway. Afterwards another main character, Stan Marsh, would say ''Oh my god! They killed Kenny!''
Goofs[]
- At the start of the scene where Stuart gives Zuri the basket Emma is sitting at the dining table and mysteriously vanishes.
- When Stuart gives Zuri the basket, he does not have a plate in front of him. But when the camera zooms out after Stuart gives Zuri the basket, there is a plate.
- Stuart was having pancakes for breakfast, and he didn't ask if it is gluten-free or not, since he has an allergy, although he didn't actually eat from it.
- There is a deleted scene during breakfast where Stuart asked Bertram if the pancakes were gluten-free or not.
- Surprisingly, when Jessie accidentally dropped Kenny off the balcony, he doesn't land into Chesterfield's terrace, which is right below theirs, but rather into pieces everywhere.
