- Nice Girl:
- Helena decided to use her newfound size to become a superhero, and when she's not stopping crime she's mostly friendly to everyone.
- Although understandably upset at the painful pranks of the Saci, Jessica never retaliates against the crew whom she thought was responsible. She later helps clear up the trouble and apologizes for the misunderstanding.
