He keeps calling Tabitha bad insulting nicknames which makes her furious (these include "Crabitha", "Slobitha", "Backstabitha" and "Snot Kebobitha"). It was later revealed that Winona (Lizbeth's sister) mentions that one of her trophies she got when she was little was marked second place to Nick who's nicknamed [[spoiler:"Little Toot" because when he used to play the recorder, he toot out both ends]].

He frequently wears a ridiculous amount of safety gear, his house and especially his room has a security system, he goes to the beach with too much sunscreen more often than not and he even had to wear orthopedic underpants (Which the Captain and Lizbeth had to search through dirty laundry at the pool when it got lost).
