Major roles

"Walking Small"

Carlos stealing SpongeBob's ice cream.

He steals SpongeBob's ice cream cone in line for the stand by sliding through his holes. When SpongeBob is not assertive enough, Plankton gets inside his mouth and yells at him, demanding he hands over the ice cream or else "every waking moment of [his] life will be filled with pain and misery." Carlos bursts into tears, and tosses the ice cream cone into SpongeBob's face as he runs off bawling. Plankton passes them off to SpongeBob as "tears of joy," erroneously stating he was happy to see SpongeBob being assertive.
