Role in series[]
"The Cent of Money"[]
Mr. Krabs goes to the Fun Arcade because he wants to collect coins with magnetic Gary. He dresses up like a pregnant woman so that the security will not notice him. The machine that gives change and all the arcade games are destroyed because Gary collects too many coins.
"Karen's Baby"[]
Karen takes her baby Chip to the Fun Arcade for some fun. Chip goes into an arcade cabinet and plays as Karen watches, but she tries to get Chip out when she sees how dangerous the game is getting. When Chip gets out of the cabinet, he upgrades into a teenager and yells at Karen, causing her to retaliate and angrily drag him back to the Chum Bucket.
"Slappy Daze"[]
Slappy goes to the Fun Arcade to kill some time before he has to pick up Nosferatu from the doctor. He sees some kids playing a dancing game, and joins in on playing it. As Slappy dances, his body parts detach, and his head comes off and flies off into a basketball hoop. The kids cheer, holding his severed body parts.
