Bubble Buddy

SpongeBob wakes up with a Viking costume on, and exclaims "Hey everybody! It's Leif Erikson Day! Hinga Dinga Durgen!". He moves his bed using an oar, and goes to Patrick's house. He sees a giant note, saying "SpongeBob, went to get more giant paper. Uuuuhh... Patrick. P.S. Happy Leif Ericsson Day! Yer Ha Dinger Jinger!". He wonders if Sandy will play with him, and there is a note on the door of her treedome. It reads "SpongeBob, went South for the winter. Love, Sandy.". SpongeBob says that the water's fine, then realizes that it's snowing in her treedome. He goes to Squidward's house, and there's another note. It says "no", answering SpongeBob's question of whether he wants to play with him. He also asks whether he's sure, and another note behind it says "yes". He decides to make a buddy, and after trying out Stick Buddy, Rock Buddy and Sink Buddy, he decides to make Bubble Buddy, a humanoid bubble. At the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob asks Squidward to get everything on the menu for Bubble Buddy. However, he says specifications that Squidward has to adhere to, which are:

• No cheese
• No crust
• Ketchup under the patty
• Pickles on the left side
• Four squirts of ketchup
• Wheat buns
• No dairy products
• Farm-raised tomatoes
• Carnival Style

He pays them in bubble-money (which pops), angering Squidward and Mr. Krabs. He angers other people, and on the beach. All the townspeople are fed up with Bubble Buddy and begin to riot. But Squidward steps in and begins to blame Spongebob and the bubble he has created. All the townspeople try to pop Bubble Buddy with pins. Before the pin reaches him, however, he catches it, and Bubble Buddy comes to life and leaves in a bubble car.

Trivia/Goofs

• When the episode first aired, the opening titles were shown as was Big Pink Loser. A seconds into Big Pink Loser, it cuts to SpongeBob going to Patrick's house. This was fixed in later airings.
• In the begining of the episode, the narrator said SpongeBob made up Leif Ericson day, but it is actually a real holiday (on October 9th)
• Squidward cooks perfectly in this episode. In Pickles and The Algae's Always Greener he was an awful cook.
