Each character was profiled in true comic fashion and they had a party. Stan Lee then gave the heroes their first lessons about the show and informed them he was looking for the `` human '' qualities that make superheroes great. The heroes searched for and moved into their secret lair. Before they entered, Rotiart was unmasked as a spy who had been secretly recording their interactions to help Lee deduce which of them might have less - than - noble motives. Lee admonished 3 of the heroes : Levity for discussing the profitability of his character ; Creature for flirting with the male heroes ; and Iron Enforcer for his violent tendencies and bravado. Levity was then sent home, with Lee explaining that superheroes are not greedy. Lee gave each superhero a secret communicator so he might interact with them privately. The 1st challenge was a `` Quick Change ''. The contestants were to be summoned by Lee in public. They had to find an inconspicuous location where they would not be seen, change into their costume and then race to a destination `` in true superhero - like fashion ''. However, a child actress in the role of a small girl who needed help finding her mother was placed en route as a surprise to see if the heroes would respond to someone in need. Lee explained that in the superhero world, things are not always as they appear to be. Following the challenge Lee revealed its true purpose. The goal was not to change into their costume and then reach the designated point, but to help those in need ; in this case the lost little girl. 6 of the remaining 10 heroes did not stop. Lee then called forth 3 heroes : Nitro G for changing out in the open as well as missing the girl ; Monkey Woman for appearing to notice the girl but not stopping ; and Iron Enforcer for his questionable heroic nature after 2 failed tests. Lee asked each of them why they should not be eliminated. After each hero replied, Lee made another cut. Nitro G was sent home. Episode 2 The show opened with Stan Lee appearing on the television, announcing another challenge. Each hero was to write questions to ask each other anonymously, then send the questions via pneumatic tube to Lee. Lee soon announced a second challenge, focusing on valor and will. Following the challenge, Lee announced the remaining superheroes would be treated to new costumes. While most of the costume updates were uneventful, Ty'Veculus's caused a bit of controversy. His old helmet was replaced with a Centurion - style one including a large feathered ridge, and his suit had become golden padded armor. Upon inspection, Lee commented that the suit was n't what he had in mind and questioned the designers. Following several interviews with the other superheroes regarding Iron Enforcer 's complete inability to fit in, the camera cut to the suitless Enforcer walking down the street. Suddenly, Lee appeared on a junked TV as Iron Enforcer passed it. Lee announced, `` Hey, Iron Enforcer... During your makeover something was bothering me, and I could n't put my finger on it, but now I know exactly what it is. You make a lousy superhero... but you 'd make a great supervillain ! '' Enforcer agreed to the new identity, and the design team from earlier pulled him into a van for transformation. Out stepped a tall, black - suited villain with a skull - like mask. Stan Lee announced the arrival of his newest creation, The Dark Enforcer, and said that life for the superheroes was about to become a lot more difficult. The 2nd episode started with the old lady being locked out of her house. The challenge was to go around and reach the back door and ring the doorbell, but they had to get by two attack dogs. Three were nominated for elimination : Cell Phone Girl, for giving up in only four seconds because she had a headache, Iron Enforcer, for getting 12 inches away from the door and crying `` Uncle '' and Creature, for laughing even though she did not complete the challenge. Cell Phone Girl was sent home. Episode 3 The episode started with Stan Lee interrupting the heroes ' breakfast for a meeting. Lee said that often, a hero 's villain defines the hero, and drew comparisons to Spider - Man 's Green Goblin, Superman 's Lex Luthor and Batman 's Joker. As murmurs went up from the heroes, the lights flickered, then failed, building to Dark Enforcer 's entrance. Stan Lee sent told each superhero to go to a restaurant and bring their food back to the lair because he wanted to see if their choices were fitting for a superhero. Before he got to the first one, the Dark Enforcer interrupted and told Lee he had bigger problems. He asked Lee what the number one rule was for being a `` superhero ''. Lee answered that a superhero never gave away his true identity. The Dark Enforcer then revealed that he had bribed the waiter and waitress and had cameras hidden all over the restaurant. When he showed the tape to Lee, he was disappointed to find that all but two, Feedback and Fat Momma, had given away their true identities, but he was especially disappointed in Monkey Woman, as she was the only one that gave her identity away without being asked, and because she lied about being an actress, and Monkey Woman was eliminated. The next morning, Lee told the superheroes to meet on top of the building and said he was going to test them on courage. When they got to the top of the building, there was a woman on the top of another building several hundred feet away that appeared to be on fire. The heroes were to walk across a narrow beam blindfolded between the two buildings and rescue the woman. However, they were not actually walking between the two buildings, they were walking on a beam that was actually a few inches off the ground. When Feedback found out the test was a fake, he became upset and said he wanted to do the challenge for real. Later, Lee commended the heroes for completing the test, but said it was time for another elimination. Then he said he was going to do something different. He told the superheroes that he was going to let them appreciate how hard his job was by having each one tell who they thought should be eliminated and why. All of them nominated themselves, except two : Tyveculus, who nominated Lemuria, and Fat Momma, who nominated Feedback. He told the heroes that this had been a test of self - sacrifice and that while he could not know the true motives of those who had nominated themselves, they had given him the answer he wanted. Lee told Fat Momma that while she had failed the challenge, she had nominated Feedback out of concern and that in her own way she was trying to save him. Ty'Veculus, Lee said, had no such noble motives. The Warrior of Light was asked to turn in his costume. All of the remaining heroes except Creature and Lemuria embraced Ty'Veculus in a heartfelt goodbye. In the lair, Fat Momma lashed out at the other superheroes, accusing them of dishonesty and manipulation in nominating themselves. In an interview, Lemuria stated that Lee would have to `` do a lot more than that to outsmart me '' and she would `` do anything, whatever it takes to stay in the game. '' In the final moments, Fat Momma vowed to see all the other heroes eliminated before her as `` payback '' for Ty'Veculus. Episode 4 As a new day dawned, the remaining superheroes patrolled the streets of Los Angeles to do some super deeds. This included Creature asking a man to pick up some garbage next to a garbage can, Lemuria telling a trucker to turn on his signal lights, Major Victory taking off his cape and laying it across a puddle so two women would n't have to step in it, Fat Momma rebuking an officer for giving a car a ticket for illegal parking while being illegally parked himself in a loading zone, and Feedback escorting two women to a light so they could cross the street safely and standing in front of of a window display of women 's undergarments to prevent a group of children from seeing them. Then they went back to the lair where Lee congratulated them on doing a good job. Then, Dark Enforcer showed up and told Lee he had interviewed their friends and family and that the superheroes had been `` lying through their teeth ''. A friend of Creature mentioned Creature 's past as a litterbug and told about her throwing trash out of a motel window into a fountain. Feedback 's wife told that Feedback was n't as neat and organized as he had led everybody to believe by showing his office that was cluttered with loose paper and said his superhero should be called `` Captain Clutter ''. Fat Momma 's mother told about Fat Momma going on all sorts of diets even though she was always talking about accepting yourself as you are. A co-worker of Major Victory told about people calling him `` Thong Man '' and shaking his `` thing '' for the ladies as a male stripper. Major Victory claimed that the nickname `` Thong Man '' was given to him because he wore sandals a lot. Then Lemuria 's friend talked about Lemuria dancing on table tops. Then Lee called for another elimination. Major Victory was nominated for taking off his cape to help the women walk over a puddle. ( He said his past as a male stripper seemed to be a recurring theme with him and was worried about what might come off next. ). Fat Momma was nominated for not being honest about accepting herself as she is, and Creature was nominated for her past as a litterbug and for breaking the law by jaywalking, and was eliminated. The next morning Lee told the remaining superheroes that they were going to meet some dangerous, hardened criminals ( they were actually actors ) and were to each perform one of four tasks. Lemuria volunteered to sit in an inmate 's lap for ten seconds, but failed. Fat Momma volunteered to brush the hair out of an inmate 's face three times, which she succeeded to do. A new inmate, a towering African American male, was brought in for Major Victory and Feedback. Major Victory went first. After being told he looked ridiculous, the Major agreed and removed his cape and gloves. After a bit of talk, the inmate asked Major Victory about having his handcuffs removed to make him more comfortable. Major Victory moved behind the inmate -- though the inmate protested -- and patted his shoulders 3 times. Upon return Major Victory stated in an interview, `` Feedback has to hug that guy 3 times ? I 'm gon na miss Feedback ! '' Feedback met the convict next. By this time, the man was asking repeatedly to have his handcuffs removed, or he would go back to the van. Feedback interceded with the prison guard and asked him to remove the convict 's handcuffs, then began conversing with the convict. When asked why he was in prison the convict told him, `` Murder, man. 4 counts. '' When asked if he felt remorse or regret for the families of his victims he said he felt none because his own father had been murdered. Ultimately, the failed challenge tipped the scales and Lemuria was asked to turn in her costume and leave the lair. Following the elimination, Major Victory promised Stan that, despite old habits dying hard, he would keep his costume on at all times, except when he had to go to the bathroom. Feedback emotionally and tearfully thanked Lee for allowing him to stay in the competition this long and explained that after the loss of his father, Stan Lee 's characters were the men he looked up to. He said that Spider - Man helped him make the shift into adulthood and that he tries to live up to the ideals set forth by Spider - Man. Lee said he was n't sure he deserved that honor but was genuinely touched by it. You sure seemed to leave out a lot of information. Episode 5 The episode began with Stan Lee summoning the superheroes to tell them they would soon face the `` toughest judges of all '' : school children. The heroes visited the Arma J. Shull School and were introduced to a class of 4th graders. As a surprise, Lee had mock comic book covers in the classroom, one for each of the heroes. Following the unveiling of the covers, each of the heroes talked to the children about their origins, powers and messages. Feedback told the children the story of the origin of his powers which, while detailed, went right over the heads of the young children. Fat Momma had the children sing her theme song, and gave the children a message about bullying and how they should not let it get to them. Finally, Major Victory humorously explained his superpowers of speed by running around the room, and his powers of sound by singing. Then the children were told to line up behind the superhero they thought was the best, and Fat Momma won. Then Feedback and Major Victory had to write `` I will not pretend to be a superhero '' on the chalkboard with Dark Enforcer looking on. The heroes were then given a challenge to follow clues that would lead them to the Dark Enforcer, who was spotted at Universal Citywalk. Major Victory finished the challenge in 15 minutes and 25 seconds. Feedback reached the Dark Enforcer in 15 minutes and 40 seconds. Had he not stayed behind to put every bit of change back into the woman 's purse, he would have finished faster. Fat Momma, who stopped repeatedly for French fries, chicken fingers, a massage, and the short - haired woman 's candy apple, completed the mission but her time was not posted on - screen. Back at the lair, Lee announced another elimination. Before the heroes could assemble on the roof, Fat Momma locked herself in the bathroom and asked to speak to an executive producer. She told producer Scott Satin that she wanted to leave the show out of fear for Feedback, who she felt was taking the show so seriously that it would devastate him to be eliminated. Stan left the heroes to talk among themselves. Feedback assured her that if he were eliminated he would have no regrets. At the elimination, all three were nominated. Lee told Major Victory that while he was entertaining for the kids in the school room, he failed to explain the origin of his superhero or inspire them. He told Feedback that while he had a good story, it went over the children 's heads and told Feedback he needed to remember who he was dealing with, and he told Fat Momma that while she did a good job in describing her hero 's origin and inspiring the children to not let people get them down for being different, he was disappointed in her for taking 40 minutes longer than Major Victory and Feedback in the timed challenge to find Dark Enforcer. Major Victory was eliminated because Lee was concerned about him becoming a parody of a superhero. Feedback started to protest, but Major Victory stopped him and told him `` You are not the shotcaller here ''. As he was walking away, Lee called him back and told him to look behind his cube and pick up the phone that was behind it and bring it back to the red elimination cube and said `` There is someone on it that wants to talk to you ''. This led to a touching and tearful conversation between Major Victory and his estranged daughter. Then Major Victory asked if he could keep the phone, making Lee laugh and exclaim `` You always stay in character ! '' Episode 6 The lair was quiet as the finale opened. Suddenly, a surge of energy poured forth from Stan Lee 's television screen, traveling down the wires and out of the lair, activating televisions around the city. Stan Lee announced from `` every channel '' that he would soon be crowning the next great superhero. As Lee gazed at comic book covers featuring Feedback and Fat Momma, he reviewed the various challenges they had faced and the superheroic traits they had exhibited through the course of the competition. Matthew went 1st and spoke again of how his father, suffering from chronic pain, had killed himself. Following his father 's suicide, Matthew looked to Lee and his comics for male role models. Lee, he said, was his hero. As he had before, Lee said how touched he was by Matthew 's words. Nell said that her best moment during the show was when Lee told her he was proud of her. She said that her father was her hero. She believed that a strong man was the center of a strong family and that with her father growing older she knew that he would n't be with her much longer, so she cherished every day she had with him. Lee then told Fat Momma that she was one of his heroes. As the season ended, Feedback flew off - screen and was seen flying through space.
