* PowerPerversionPotential: "Potential" nothing, Barney actually does it. The film takes this trope and runs with it. At first, the victims ''sort of'' deserve it (like AlphaBitch Jane and the girls from the rival school who mock him) but he gets a little carried away at the prom scene.

Barney's new powers are known about only by his best friend Peyton (Creator/WillieAames) and class president Bernadette (Creator/FeliceSchachter).
