[[File:Born Again Krabs 015.jpg|thumb|left|Mr. Krabs forces SpongeBob to sell an old patty.]]
 
It is closing time at the Krusty Krab, Squidward is obviously delighted at being free of work, while a sad SpongeBob isn't. He soon finds an old, blackened, moldy Krabby Patty under the grill, he tries throwing it out. However, this triggers an alarm and Mr. Krabs will not let him throw out the patty, as selling it will give him 5.2 cents, and orders SpongeBob not to make another patty until that one is sold.

The next day, Squidward is informed of the decision, and reluctantly holds out the rancid patty to the customer. The customer takes one sniff of the patty, screams in disgust, and backflips out the door.
   
Sure enough, this results in the Krusty Krab losing many weeks' worth of business. Mr. Krabs wonders if it's the new place mats, but Squidward angrily tells his boss it's the old rotten patty he keeps trying to sell to everyone. The stubborn Mr. Krabs dismisses such a notion and has SpongeBob bring it out. SpongeBob reveals he has caged it, since it became sentient enough to growl at him. Mr. Krabs decides to prove his views by eating the patty, though before he eats it he sees an ambulance passing the Krusty Krab (mostly because the people already know he'll get sick from eating it). He eats the spoiled patty, and he is promptly rushed to the hospital minutes later while now green. As he's being wheeled in, Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob to wrap up the rest of the patty because he ''still'' thinks it's worth eating, while the latter worries over his boss.

[[File:Born Again Krabs 056.jpg|thumb|Mr. Krabs is taken to Davy Jones' locker by the Flying Dutchman]]
 
Soon in the hospital, the Flying Dutchman appears to condemn him in Davy Jones' Locker. Mr. Krabs falsely claims his name is "Harold Flower" but the Dutchman gets confirmation from the nurse that he is lying. When they arrive at the locker, Mr. Krabs begs to be freed. The Dutchman does, as long as he will always be generous from then on, Mr. Krabs promises.

At the Krusty Krab (which went bankrupt and ended up going out of business due to the amount of business lost and Krabs' absence), Squidward is going through his boss' belongings while a tearful SpongeBob believes he'll come back though his co-worker isn't convinced by the doctor's word. At that moment, Mr. Krabs returns to the Krusty Krab and his employees are shocked to see him again. SpongeBob celebrates as Squidward is deadpan, but Mr. Krabs promises to be less cheap and more generous.

Re-opening his restaurant, Mr. Krabs begins to treat everyone nicer with the "employee lounge" and free refills. But soon, SpongeBob and Squidward become concerned when Mr. Krabs isn't the least bit fazed when he receives a $10,000 hospital bill and doesn't have any money in the register to pay for it. When they tell Mr. Krabs how weird he's been acting, he states that he's having a bad dream and that there is nothing to worry about, much to their shock and confusion. After Squidward and SpongeBob tell him otherwise, he realizes that the whole thing was real and panics. He revokes all the free things he gave to the customers and threatens to rip off one's arm over a penny. The Dutchman returns to take him [[File:Born Again Krabs 104.jpg|thumb|260px|left]]back to the Locker. But SpongeBob bets that Mr. Krabs is generous, and bets that he would pick him over all the money in The Dutchman's pocket. Mr. Krabs promptly takes the money, sending a heartbroken SpongeBob to Davy Jones' Locker. Squidward is shocked and outraged at Mr. Krabs for selling SpongeBob's soul for 62 cents and chews him out. Mr. Krabs sees the error of his ways and rejects the money. The Flying Dutchman then returns with SpongeBob, not because of Mr. Krabs' repenting, but because SpongeBob was WAY too annoying due to his talkative nature and he believes that letting Mr. Krabs have SpongeBob in his life would be "a fate worse than death."

Characters

Synopsis

File:Born Again Krabs 015.jpg

Mr. Krabs forces SpongeBob to sell an old patty.

It is closing time at the Krusty Krab, Squidward is obviously delighted at being free of work, while a sad SpongeBob isn't. He soon finds an old, blackened, moldy Krabby Patty under the grill, he tries throwing it out. However, this triggers an alarm and Mr. Krabs will not let him throw out the patty, as selling it will give him 5.2 cents, and orders SpongeBob not to make another patty until that one is sold.

The next day, Squidward is informed of the decision, and reluctantly holds out the rancid patty to the customer. The customer takes one sniff of the patty, screams in disgust, and backflips out the door.

Sure enough, this results in the Krusty Krab losing many weeks' worth of business. Mr. Krabs wonders if it's the new place mats, but Squidward angrily tells his boss it's the old rotten patty he keeps trying to serve to everyone. The stubborn Mr. Krabs dismisses such a notion and has SpongeBob bring it out. SpongeBob reveals he has caged it since it became sentient enough to growl at him. Mr. Krabs decides to prove his views by eating the patty, though before he eats it he sees an ambulance passing the Krusty Krab (mostly because the people already know he'll get sick from eating it). He eats the spoiled patty, and he is promptly rushed to the hospital minutes later while now green. As he's being wheeled in, Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob to wrap up the rest of the patty because he still thinks it's worth eating, while the latter worries over his boss.

Mr. Krabs is taken to Davy Jones' locker by the Flying Dutchman

Soon in the hospital, the Flying Dutchman appears to condemn him in Davy Jones' Locker. Mr. Krabs falsely claims his name is "Harold Flower" but the Dutchman gets confirmation from the nurse that he is lying. When they arrive at the locker, Mr. Krabs begs to be freed. The Dutchman does, as long as he will always be generous from then on, Mr. Krabs promises.

At the Krusty Krab (which went bankrupt and ended up going out of business due to the amount of business lost and Krabs' absence), Squidward is going through his boss' belongings while a tearful SpongeBob believes he'll come back though his co-worker isn't convinced by the doctor's word. At that moment, Mr. Krabs returns to the Krusty Krab and his employees are shocked to see him again. SpongeBob celebrates as Squidward is deadpan, but Mr. Krabs promises to be less cheap and more generous.

Re-opening his restaurant, Mr. Krabs begins to treat everyone nicer with the "employee lounge" and free refills. But soon, SpongeBob and Squidward become concerned when Mr. Krabs isn't the least bit fazed when he receives a $10,000 hospital bill and doesn't have any money in the register to pay for it. When they tell Mr. Krabs how weird he's been acting, he states that he's having a bad dream and that there is nothing to worry about, much to their shock and confusion. After Squidward and SpongeBob tell him otherwise, he realizes that the whole thing was real and panics. He revokes all the free things he gave to the customers and threatens to rip off one's arm over a penny. The Dutchman returns to take him

back to the Locker. But SpongeBob bets that Mr. Krabs is generous, and bets that he would pick him over all the money in The Dutchman's pocket. Mr. Krabs promptly takes the money, sending a heartbroken SpongeBob to Davy Jones' Locker. Squidward is shocked and outraged at Mr. Krabs for selling SpongeBob's soul for 62 cents and chews him out. Mr. Krabs sees the error of his ways and rejects the money. The Flying Dutchman then returns with SpongeBob, not because of Mr. Krabs' repenting, but because SpongeBob was WAY too annoying due to his talkative nature and he believes that letting Mr. Krabs have SpongeBob in his life would be "a fate worse than death."

Mr. Krabs apologizes to SpongeBob for his petty act, but the latter dismisses it as he would do the same, but promptly denies it, and the crew laugh.

At the end, the Flying Dutchman is seen reading near the locker when the phone rings. It's SpongeBob, who begins to annoy the Flying Dutchman again with his consistent chatting.

Release

Trivia

General

  • The episode was available on the Tales from the Deep DVD, released in on January 28, 2003, before its United States premiere.
    • This episode premiered in Canada on November 12, 2002, before it premiered in the United States.[1]
  • This episode premiered in Germany on September 22, 2003.[2]
  • In "Patty Hype," Mr. Krabs expresses concern for tainted patties when he thinks the green painted patty is spoiled and tries to burn it. In this episode, he has no concern for the rotten patty and wants it served like a fresh patty.
Eugene Harold Krabs in Only the Clonely

Eugene Harold Krabs in a comic strip.

  • Mr. Krabs' "fake" name was "Harold Flower." According to the Only the Clonely comic strip found in SpongeBob Comics No. 54, Harold is actually Mr. Krabs' middle name.
  • In the Hebrew version of this episode, Mr. Krabs says his name is "Shimon Vaza" (which means "Simon Vase").
    • In the Brazilian version, Mr. Krabs says to The Flying Dutchman that his name is "Harold Flores" (Harold Flowers). Flores is an actual last name in Brazil.
    • In the European Portuguese version, Mr. Krabs' pretend name is "Horácio Flores", being both actual Portuguese names.
    • In the German version, Mr. Krabs says that his name is "Benjamin Blümchen," referencing an iconic children's cartoon character his voice actor is known for in Germany; Jürgen Kluckert, the voice of Benjamin, voices Mr. Krabs in the German dub.
  • In this episode, Mr. Krabs nearly rips off a customer's arm for a penny. In "Sleepy Time," he lands Moby Dollar in a dream sequence but tells SpongeBob to "never mind" the small change (when it spouts pennies). It may be because this time, he has no money at all and is desperate to pay the bill.
  • The Flying Dutchman has six coins that added up to 62 cents. One possible combination is two quarters, two nickels, and two pennies.
  • In the Russian version, Mr. Krabs sells SpongeBob for 68 cents instead of 62.
    File:Born Again Krabs 140.jpg
  • This episode is one of the rare times when Mr. Krabs turns down money. He states "I don't want this foul money" and would rather want "SpongeBob back."
  • This is the first (and so far only) episode that shows a time card with SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs on it.
  • This episode shows that even though Squidward is rude and hateful, he has more morals than Mr. Krabs.
  • This episode premiered on television in the United States on Bill Fagerbakke's 46th birthday.
  • The Let's Just Play live broadcast after a test card on Nickelodeon aired with this episode and "I Had an Accident during its American television premiere.
  • In the Polish dub, the episode's title is "Drugie życie Kraba" (Krabs' Second Life).
  • In the German dub, the episode has the cynical title of "Geizig bleibt geizig" (Stingy remains stingy).

Cultural references

Errors

  • In one scene, Squidward is shown flicking the bun off the patty and telling SpongeBob to give him a different patty, but when the view is back to the patty, the bun is back on the patty.
  • Even though Mr. Krabs made it a rule not to serve any normal Krabby Patties until the rotten patty is served, Squidward attempts to serve a customer the rotten patty and other people are eating in the background.
    • They could have been eating other items on the menu besides Krabby Patties.
Tentacle error

Squidward's detached hand.

  • For one frame, Squidward's hand appears to be detached from the rest of his arm.
  • The door Mr. Krabs enters the office through leads to the kitchen, yet there's no sign of the condiments, freezer door, and it's incredibly dark.
  • When Squidward wakes up from his nap, he enters from the right. Mr. Krabs' office is to the left of the order counter.
  • When Flying Dutchman says, "...but you were cheap,...", his green glowing silhouette behind himself freezes even though he moves slightly.
  • When SpongeBob says, “...the 'employee lounge'.”, there is a white border on the right.
  • 62 cents that Flying Dutchman gives to Mr. Krabs have four errors.
    • One error is that when 62 cents are first shown, their position is on Flying Dutchman's right hand. However, after the next two scenes, when Flying Dutchman gives 62 cents to Mr. Krabs, their position is on Flying Dutchman's left hand.
    • The other one is the number of coins that are supposed to be 62 cents. When 62 cents are first shown, the number of coins is six. However, after the next two scenes, when Flying Dutchman gives 62 cents to Mr. Krabs, the number of coins is eight instead of six.
    • The other one is the colors of 62 cents. When 62 cents are first shown, three of them are silver, two of them are copper and one of them is in gray-green color. However, after the next two scenes onwards, all of them are in copper colors.
    • The other one is that when Mr. Krabs throws 62 cents onto the floor, they are still there. However, after one scene and one flashback, they are gone.
  • When Incidental 60 is about to pick up the penny, the penny is on the ground. However, in the next scene, when the camera zooms out to see that Mr. Krabs parsimoniously grabs a hold of Incidental 60's right arm, the penny was gone.
  • When Davy Jones' locker is first shown, there are two rocks on the bottom left. However, after the next one scene, the two rocks are gone.
  • When Incidental 116 drops the clipboard onto the floor after seeing that Mr. Krabs has done a terrible thing, the clipboard was there. However, when Flying Dutchman appears, the clipboard was gone.
  • In the DVD Ghouls Fools the description says "The Flying Dutchman enslaves Squidward, Patrick, and SpongeBob" which is from "Shanghaied" not from this episode.
