[Spongebob arrives at the Krusty Krab]
SpongeBob: Permission to come aboard, captain! [deep voice] I've been training my whole life for the day I could finally join the Krusty Krew, [normal voice] And now I'm ready.
[SpongeBob trips on a nail stuck in the floorboard. His fall causes him to bounce against the ceiling, SpongeBob shouts and blurts incomprehensibly while his bounces and ricochets around the building accelerate. He then rolls to a stop at the feet of Squidward and Mr. Krabs]
Spongebob: So, uh, when do I start?
Mr. Krabs: Well lad, it seems like you don't even have your sea legs.
SpongeBob: MR. Krabs, Please. I'll prove I'm a fry cook. Ask Squidward, He'll vouch for me.
[Mr. Krabs and Squidward quickly walk away from SpongeBob]
Squidward: [deep breath] No.
[Buses surround the Krusty Krab and the doors open]
Mr. Krabs: That sounded like hatch doors! [sniffs repeatedly] Do you smell it? That smell. A kind of smelly smell. The smelly smell that smells... smelly. [opens eyes wide] Anchovies.
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: ANCHOVIES!
[Anchovies get out of the buses and rush inside the Krusty Krab, crowding, repeating the word "eat" over and over again]

Surfer Fish: [laughs] You still got it, dude!
Lou: May I help you?
SpongeBob: I'll take a banana split.
Lou: Uh, we don't have that.
SpongeBob: That's okay, I already split my pants! Get it?
Lou: [sarcastically] Tee hee. Anything else?
SpongeBob: How about...rip-ple?! [shows the rip in his pants] No thanks, already got one!
SpongeBob: Is that a burger you're eating?
Harold: Why, yes it is.
SpongeBob: You know what would go good with that?
Harold: No, what?

Sandy: SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: [to Lifeguard] C-come closer. I need...I need...
Lifeguard: [tearfully] What do you need?
SpongeBob: [whispers] A tailor...[shouting] because I ripped my pants!
Spongebob: [consulting list] Let's see...'lifting weights, big laugh'...'frisbee in face, kills'...'surfing, knocks 'em dead'...'pretending to drown'... [writes as he says it] 'NO.'
SpongeBob: [comes out of tent] Not ripped pants... [pulls off pants] Pants ripped off! Ah? Ah? Someone call the police, there's a pants thief on the loose! [realizes that the crowd is on the other side off the beach] Oh no! Everybody's gone, even Sandy! She'd rather hang out with Larry! Oh no, no, no, no. We blew it, pants.
Pants: What do you mean "we"? [walks away]
[Lyrics to the song "Ripped Pants"]
SpongeBob: [spoken] I thought that I had everybody on my side
But I went and blew it all sky-high
And now she won't even spare a passing glance
All just because I ripped my pants
Band Members: [singing] When Big Larry came 'round just to put him down
SpongeBob turned into a clown
And no girl ever wants to dance
With a fool who went and -rrrriiiipppp- ripped his pants
SpongeBob: [singing in a beautiful, heart-stopping voice]
I know I shouldn't mope around, I shouldn't curse
But the pain feels so much worse
Cause windin' up with no one is a lot less fun
Than a burn from the sun
Band Members: [singing] Or sand in your buns
SpongeBob: [singing] Now I learned a lesson I won't soon forget
So listen and you won't regret
Be true to yourself, don't miss your chance
All: [singing] And you won't end up like the fool who ripped his pants
[Crowd cheers]
Sandy: SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: Sandy!
[Sandy and SpongeBob hug]
Sandy: Your song was true. If you wanna be my friend, just be yourself.
Larry the Lobster: SpongeBob! That song was so righteous! Would you...sign my pants?
SpongeBob: Sure thing, buddy. [starts to sign Larry's pants, but his underwear rips off. He covers his private part, blushing. There is a wolf whistle]

Patrick: Here we go!
[Patrick scoops up a spoonful of soup and offers it to Squidward, who refuses]
Patrick: Oh, it's a little hot.
[He blows a little too hard on the soup, and the soup ends up flying into Squidward's bandaged face. Realizing that the spoon is empty, Patrick scoops up more soup and inadvertently blows it into Squidward's face again. This continues until finally SpongeBob takes the bowl away]
SpongeBob: Uh, I don't think soup is the best thing for him on his best day ever... [motioning towards Squidward's prized clarinet] How 'bout some music on your best day ever, played on your very own clarinet?
[SpongeBob takes Squidward's clarinet and blows hard, only to produce a terrible, ear-splitting noise]
SpongeBob: Sorry. My lips are a little dry...
[He spends the next few moments licking his lips, until they are completely wet with his saliva. Just as SpongeBob is about to have another go on the clarinet, Patrick snatches the clarinet away]
Patrick: MUSIC ISN'T BEST EITHER!
Patrick: [trying to get Squidward to hold a jellyfish net] Firmly grasp it in your hand. [The net falls off of Squidward's bandaged hand] FIRMLY grasp it.

Plankton: [through SpongeBob's mouth] SHUT YOUR MOUTH, YOU MEDIOCRE CLARINET PLAYER.
Squidward: Mediocre?
Plankton: Any last words, SpongeBob SecretPants?
SpongeBob: [realizing it's no use to fight] I just have to say I'm sorry I let Mr. Krabs down. I let all of Bikini Bottom down. [tears fill his eyes and leak down his face] But worst of all, I let you down, you delicate little Krabby Patty...with your tasty, juicy, scrumptious, warm, steaming goodness...
Plankton: [enticed] Steaming?
SpongeBob: [sadly] I'll never forget your one-hundred-percent all-secret patty, secretly assembled with undersea cheese, pickles, lettuce, tomato, onion, all secretly steaming between two fluffy seaweed sea buns.

SpongeBob: No.
Plankton: [thinks] Well, we're both invertebrates, aren't we?
SpongeBob: I...guess so.
Plankton: You see? Everything works out.
Plankton: SpongeBob, you will be mine! [takes out a gramophone and begins playing it]
Singer: [singing on the record] Letters of the alphabet A, B, C....

[Plankton flips the record to the correct side, which plays ominous music]
Plankton: [laughs evilly]

Naughty Nautical Neighbors [1.4a] (1999)

[SpongeBob and Patrick are playing a game in which they whisper messages to each other using bubbles. SpongeBob dips his bubble wand into his bottle of bubble mix, thinks a moment, then whispers a message into his bubble. The bubble floats to Patrick and pops, and SpongeBob's message is revealed]
SpongeBob: Hi, Patrick.
[Patrick giggles, then dips his own wand into his own bottle, then shoves the wand into his mouth and takes it out before dipping it into his bottle again and whispering his own message to SpongeBob. The bubble floats to SpongeBob and pops, revealing Patrick's message]

Patrick: Do you really think that, SpongeBob?
SpongeBob: [into his bubble] Of course, Patrick! Anyone with eyes could see that!
Patrick: [a bubble floats to SpongeBob and pops] Yeah, well, I think you're ugly! Yellow is ugly! [blows a raspberry, then blows a shorter raspberry]
SpongeBob: [into his bubble very confused] Patrick, what are you talking about?
Squidward: [disguised as Patrick] SpongeBob, I no longer wish to know you. You give bottom dwellers a bad name! If I had a dollar for every brain you don't have, I'd have one dollar!
Squidward: [disguised as SpongeBob] Hey Patrick! I heard there was a job opening down at the pet shop, as some newspaper!
Patrick: [shouting] Well, that makes you a big dummy, you dummy!
SpongeBob: Yeah, well that means uh...so are you!
Patrick: Then you're a turkey!
SpongeBob: What's that?!
Patrick: It's what you are!
SpongeBob: Yeah? Well, you're a bigger one!

[Squidward left SpongeBob and Patrick alone in his house, and came back from the store to find his house completely destroyed, all that is left is bluish rubble]
Squidward: What a surprise. I invited them in, and I left them alone. Well, Squidward, what have we learned today?
SpongeBob: [singing] Squidward is my best friend in the world. [starts playing the bassinet very badly] Squidward is my best friend in the sea. [starts playing the bassinet very badly again. He lets go of his bow and the bow flies into a picture of Squidward]
Squidward: Aaah! [growls and breaks the bow in half on his knee]
SpongeBob: [singing] Squidward... [is playing the bassinet like a guitar]
Patrick: [poking his head inside] ...likes Patrick more than SpongeBob.
[Spongebob slams the door in Patrick's face]

SpongeBob: So uh... I'll see you tomorrow, Squidward? Call me!
SpongeBob: Guess what, Squidward?
Patrick: Me and Spongebob are friends again!
Squidward: Great. Go be friends somewhere else.
SpongeBob: Don't you want us to help you clean this up a little?
Squidward: NO! OUT!
SpongeBob: Psst. I think he's jealous.
Patrick: How pathetic.
Squidward: [growls, slams his door, a nearby bubble pops into it and the door falls on Squidward] Ohh, my back!

Officer #1: [ignoring Patrick's gesture] Son, we're looking for the maniac.
Officer #2: Have you seen this man? [holds up poster]
Patrick: AAAAAAAH! It's the maniac! Take him away! Take him away!
[Officer #2 removes the poster.]
Officer #1: Calm down, son. It's just a drawing, not the real thing. Now we are going to show you this picture again, and you tell us if you've seen this guy, understand?
Patrick: Uh-huh.
Officer #1: Okay.
[Officer #2 holds up the poster again.]
Patrick: AAAAAAAH! Horrible!
[Officer #2 removes the poster, shocked at Patrick, then holds it up again. Patrick screams again. The officer removes the poster, looks at the other officer, and both smile at the idea. Officer #2 then goes through a series of showing the poster and removing it, and each time he holds up the poster, Patrick lets out a scream. Officer #2 finally stops.]
Officer #1: Stay indoors, son.
Officer #2: And take that cone off your head!
[Both officers laugh as they drive away.]

Mr. Krabs: AYE, the hooks. They dangle down and draw you close with their pleasing shapes and beguiling colors, and just when you think you've found the land of milk and honey, they grab ya by the britches, and haul you way up high, and higher, and higher, and HIGHER, until you're hauled up to the surface, flopping and gasping for breath! And then they cook ya, and then they eat ya--or worse!
SpongeBob: [terrified] What could be worse than that?
Mr. Krabs: [softly] Gift shops.
Patrick: Are you gonna listen to a big dummy, or are you gonna listen to me?
SpongeBob: Uhh...
Patrick: Good morning, Krusty Crew!
SpongeBob: Hey, Patrick!
Patrick: Guess what? The carnival's in town! Come on, let's go!
SpongeBob: I can't leave now, I'm working.
Patrick: It's not leaving. You're just taking a break.
[SpongeBob grins and slithers silently out of the Krusty Krab kitchen to join Patrick]
SpongeBob: Stop, Patrick! Don't touch it! This isn't the carnival, Patrick, those are hooks! Mr. Krabs said they're really dangerous!
Patrick: [sits on a hook's barbed end to think about it, then smiles] I sense no danger here. How could they be dangerous? They're covered with free cheese!
SpongeBob: All I know is Mr. Krabs said-- Patrick, don't do that!
[Patrick eats a block of cheese straight off a hook]
Patrick: Mmmmm...cheesy.
SpongeBob: Patrick, don't!
Patrick: Lighten up, will ya? Or do I have to eat all this cheese by myse-- Whoaaah!
[Suddenly the hook Patrick is holding onto jerks into the air, taking Patrick up towards the surface]
SpongeBob: [terrified] Patrick! Help! [running around like crazy] Oh, Patrick! Help! Oh, Patrick, come back! Oh, my best friend!
[Patrick suddenly floats gently back to the ocean floor, and SpongeBob bumps into him]
SpongeBob: Patrick, you're alive!
Patrick: Am I ever! You should try it!
SpongeBob: But what about the surface? And your britches? And the gift shops?
Patrick: You just jump off before you go up too high.
[In the Krusty Krab]
Customer 1: Pee-yew! You call this food?!
Customer 2: My sandwich tastes like a fried boot!
Customer 3: My sandwich is a fried boot!
[The customers get angry and start yelling at Squidward]
Tom: COME ON! HURRY UP! WE'RE STARVING OUT HERE, I MEAN LOOK AT US! MY KIDS HAVEN'T EATEN IN DAYS. [in the kitchen] THAT'S NOT HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO FLIP IT!
Squidward: WHY DO YOU PEOPLE WANT TO EAT THIS STUFF ANYWAY?!
[In the Krusty Krab kitchen]
Mr. Krabs: Squidward! What the halibut's going on in here?
Squidward: It's a feeding frenzy, sir, and SpongeBob's still not back from his break!
[Mr. Krabs bursts out laughing]
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: I thought you said SpongeBob was taking a break. No one's taken a break at the Krusty Krab since the Chum Famine of '59. [chuckles] Now, what were you saying?
Squidward: [with emphasis] He took a break.
[Mr. Krabs looks at Squidward, and his arms fall off, then his nose falls off, too. Later we see Mr. Krabs storming out the front doors]
Mr. Krabs: All right, Spongebob LazyPants! I'll find you. This nose can smell laziness for up to 10,000 leagues! [sniffs] A-HA! [starts to march off] I'll give you a break you'll not soon forget!
Squidward: [with a mob of angry customers forming around him] But, Mr. Krabs, I still need-- [the mob carries him off] --HEEELLLLP!
Mr. Krabs: [thinking SpongeBob and Patrick are gone forever] Boys! I wasn't quick enough. They're gone! [on the verge of tears] Oh, if I could only hold them in me arms again, I'd-I'd--
[SpongeBob and Patrick float down in front of him, and anger replaces his sadness]
Mr. Krabs: I'd throttle 'em! What'd I tell you about those hooks, boy?!
SpongeBob: I-I--
Patrick: I'll tell you about the hooks! You ride 'em up and up and up...then you gently float down.
Mr. Krabs: [in Patrick's face] And do you know what happens when you don't float back down?
SpongeBob: Gift shops!
Mr. Krabs: Worse! You end up vacuum-packed in a can of tuna! With nothing to look forward to but the smell of mayonnaise!
[Bloody murder is heard in the background]
Mr. Krabs: I want you boys to promise me you'll never go on those hooks again.
Patrick & SpongeBob: We promise, Mr. Krabs!
Mr. Krabs: I need a sailor's promise! Repeat after me: Yo-ho, yo-ho, near the hooks I'll never go!
Patrick & SpongeBob: Yo-ho, yo-ho, near the hooks we'll never go.
[A sharp hook jabs Mr. Krabs in the rear end. He howls in pain and leaps into the air]
Mr. Krabs: Mother of pearl! Fire on the poopdeck!
Patrick & SpongeBob: Ahh! Mother of pearl! [rubbing their rears] Fire on the poopdeck!
Pearl: Look, it's Spongebob Nudie pants!
[Patrick is returned to Bikini Bottom trapped inside a can of tuna]
Patrick: Hello? Does somebody have a can opener?

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II [1.20b] (2000)

Mermaid Man: Don't squash his enthusiasm. After all, he could be the hero of tomorrow! Or the villain.

Mermaid Man & SpongeBob: [singing] Oh jingle bells, Mermaid Man smells, Barnacle Boy laid an egg; the Invisible Boatmobile lost a wheel and...

SpongeBob: [to the Dirty Bubble] You're my favorite supervillain. Can I get your autograph? [pulls out paper and a sharp pencil]
 Dirty Bubble: [in shock] No! No! Stay back! Watch the point! Nooooo-- [SpongeBob pops him]
