Plot
Jimmy is going to be left home for the night while his mom and dad go out to see Ducks: the Greatest Musical Ever Made. They make Jimmy promise that he won't anyone over while they're gone. Sheen and Carl turn up to Jimmy's and suggests he hold a party which Jimmy at first refuses. He was told not to hold a party, do any experiments, or space missions. However after pointing out that Betty Quinlan would be likely to come, Jimmy agrees. Sheen and Carl invite basically every kid from school for the party, especially Nick who is a must have at any party. Cindy and Libby also come to the party (to make catty observations and rude remarks, and there was nothing good on TV).
Disaster strikes when Nick becomes bored with the party and when Nick leaves, everybody leaves. Sheen in desperation, tells them all to come to Jimmy's room where he has all sorts of cool stuff. This has the negative effect of making the party spiral into insanity. Soon Nick is flying in Jimmy's jetpack, Cindy is shrinking Carl and Sheen traps two raptors into the broom closet.
Jimmy can't stand it anymore and calls the party off, he quickly takes this back as Betty shows up to the party. So the party continues and Jimmy doesn't take much notice that the house is slowly being demolished. Jimmy gets to dance with Betty, which makes Cindy sad. Sheen says she might be jealous, to which Cindy threatens to hit him.
Jimmy comes back to his senses when he gets a phone call from his parents telling him that due to an accident with Hugh, they'll be home in five minutes. Of course, nobody is willing to leave the party. Jimmy comes up with the idea of speeding up time in the house so the entire party can finish in a couple of seconds.
After everybody leaves, it’s a simple manner of cleaning the house, which Jimmy does in a flash,and when his parents arrive he covers it pretty well, until Hugh finds the raptors in the closet and gets attacked.
Trivia
- The dance scene between Jimmy and Betty is a reference to the famous dance scene from the movie Pulp Fiction.
- This the first time Nick calls Sheen "Shine". The second time will be in The Incredible Shrinking Town.
- Sheen references the song "Doth, I Protest Too Much" by Alanis Morissette.
- The song from "Ducks: The Musical" that Hugh sings is sung to the tune of the Jet Song from West Side Story.
- The rewind device is similar to the universal remote control in the 2006 film, Click, as they both involve manipulating time.
- For unknown reasons, this episode is unavailable on iTunes.
- Before Carl says, "Don't step on me!", three kids are seen doing the repetitive dances from the Peanuts franchise. Even the music played during the Men Pretending To Be Boys concert sounds like the Peanuts theme song, that plays during that scene. Such dancing is done again in The Eggpire Strikes Back.
- Jimmy and Betty's dance is also seen during the opening credits of Operation: Rescue Jet Fusion.
