SpongeBob performs the Heimlich maneuver on the Goofy Goober, which launches the patty across the restaurant and into the Gooberberry Sunrise. As a result, SpongeBob and the patty proceed to exit the restaurant.

"The Goobfather"[]

After the Goobfather has his goons destroy the new Patty Whip machine twice, Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob infiltrate the restaurant by knocking out Walter as he was taking out the trash, and stealing his uniform. They then try to sabotage it by distracting the guards and manager with ice cream, and then turn up the heat using the thermostat, resulting in all the ice cream flooding the place. Later, the Goobfather has made the restaurant mobile and engages in an ice cream-based war that ends with both eateries being wrecked.

"Big Baby Patrick"[]

SpongeBob takes Baby Patrick to the Goofy Goober's to get some ice cream sundaes, but is reminded that babies can't have ice cream. He does this to try to make Patrick grow up and stop acting like a baby, but Patrick ends up eating his and SpongeBob's ice cream anyways. SpongeBob yells at him, but after the bouncer thinks that he fed Patrick the ice cream, he is then banned from the Goofy Goober's for life. After hearing this, he turns into a baby and starts crying. The bouncer sees these two babies and takes them back to the Star house.

Role in movie[]

SpongeBob and Patrick go here after the grand opening of the Krusty Krab 2. SpongeBob is first shown at the nut bar, bawling because he did not get the promotion. Patrick then comes along and orders a meal. SpongeBob depressingly begins heading for home until he sees that Patrick has ordered a Triple Gooberberry Sunrise, and decides to order one too.

The two proceed to continuously order Triple Gooberberry Sunrises, splattering the waiter in ice cream, and eventually becoming drunk to the point where the two go up on stage with Goofy Goober and fall over. The next morning, SpongeBob wakes up with a hangover.

Trivia[]

General[]

  • According to Vincent Waller, from 2005 to 2014, Paramount Pictures formerly did not allow any movie-exclusive content to be used in the SpongeBob SquarePants series. This is why Goofy Goober's was only seen in one brief, unnamed cameo appearance in the series until "Patnocchio."
    • Additionally, the background art for Goofy Goober's was entirely redrawn, rather than reused from the movie.
    • Vincent Waller recalled, "We couldn't even use images of Goofy Goober from the movie back then."[2]
  • It was the first location from the movie to fully appear in the series.
