In the episode Nightmare In Retroville, Jimmy Neutron and his friends wake up one day in an alternate universe where everything is vintage and outdated. The episode starts with Jimmy's parents getting a brand new retro-style TV set as a gift, and soon after they watch it, they fall into a deep sleep. Each time they watch the TV, they get drawn deeper and deeper into a nightmare where they become trapped inside a world that is a replica of their past.

Jimmy and his friends quickly realize that the TV set is the cause of their parents' sleep and that the only way to wake them up is to figure out how to destroy the machine that is keeping them trapped. This forces the group to travel around Retroville in order to find the source of the nightmare. Along the way, they come across different nostalgic items that they remember from the past such as typewriters, old phones, and vinyl records.

As they progress on their journey, they discover that their own nightmare universe is only one of many that exist due to other retro devices that have also been activated. They find that their situation is much more complex and far-reaching than they initially thought.

One of the most interesting parts of the episode is the character development of Sheen. Sheen is known for being a very hyper-active individual who is always seeking adventure. However, in this episode, he is forced to confront his fear of clowns. The alternate universe they find themselves in is filled with vintage clowns, and in order for Sheen to help them complete their mission, he must face his phobia. This adds a unique dynamic to the episode and helps to develop Sheen's character.

The episode concludes with the group successfully destroying all the retro machines that are causing the alternate universes to exist, and their parents finally waking up. They all return to their version of Retroville, happy to be back in a world with modern technology.

Overall, this episode is an exciting adventure that showcases the creativity of the writers of the show. It is interesting to see how the characters react to being in a different universe and the challenges they face in order to get back to their reality. The episode also touches on the darker subject of the power of nostalgia and how it can trap individuals in the past. It is an enjoyable watch for both children and adults alike.
