Upon encountering the Van Patten rays, Jimmy, Carl, Sheen, Cindy, and Libby have all obtained superheroes' abilities. Sheen can run really fast, Cindy has super strength, Libby can become invisible, and Carl can burp real loud. But only Jimmy's hair has become green, and the others laugh at him because he has no superpowers. Together, the group becomes the N Men, but they kick Jimmy out because he has no powers. Soon, Jimmy finds out that the military is out for them, and Jimmy needs to find a cure to get rid of the superpowers, but he can't find any, and he becomes aggravated, mutating into a freakisly large boulder guy who is out to defeat the others. Will he?

(edit)
Cindy: Carl, why haven't you tried to perfect your super belches?
Carl: I'm scared to, for my burps are way too dangerous.
Sheen: But Carl, your destructive potential is part of the reason we love you!
Carl: (shaking Sheen) Do you not understand!? No more spicy food or carbonated beverages! I've got to guard against even the slightest hiccup!
Sheen: You mean no more chalupas?! I feel your pain, dude. (edit)

Jimmy: Who am I? I'm your worst nightmare.
This is a reference to Spider-Man comics and movie adaptations. (edit) Hulk-Jimmy: Transformation
When Jimmy is turning into the Hulk-like creature, his eyes change from blue to green, the same way Danny Fenton's(from Danny Phantom) does when he is angry or when he changes from Danny Fenton to Danny Phantom. (edit) Mrs. Fowl: Her perch.
While Mrs. Fowl sits on the park bench, Cindy constantly throws random objects at her. The second time something is thrown at Mrs. Fowl, the large sombrero sign, she jumps up onto the bench and perches on it like a bird would; alluding to her namesake. (edit) Sheen: (to Abercrombie) Actually, we prefer "The Fantastic League of Justice Bringing Avenging Men... and Two Girls."
This alternative title of the "N-Men" seems to be the combination of four famous teams of superheros, "The Fantastic Four," "The Justice League of America," "The Avengers" and "X-Men." (edit) Vibrating Lad: Powers & Costume
Sheen's ability to vibrate his molecules at superhuman speed is very similiar to "The Flash's." In addition, Sheen's orange costume has little wings at his head, which is also very similiar to The Flash's orange-red costume. (edit)
