4 to 6 weeks later, SpongeBob receives the kit in the mail and decides to show Squidward his skills in the magical arts. He tries to demonstrate a card trick to Squidward, but the latter heads out of [[Bikini Bottom]] on a [[bus]] passing by. Meanwhile, a [[boatmobile]] passing by with Monroe Timmy was upset because his ice cream cone was pistachio and his father couldn't understand why he got pistachio when he asked for it. Sooner the boat mobile hits a crack and the kid's pistachio ice cream cone flies and lands onto Squidward's chair. Because of this, SpongeBob thinks he has turned Squidward into an ice cream cone, and promises him that he will still be able to live a normal life.

The floating fish head tells them that he cannot help SpongeBob, and then Patrick notices a leg sticking out from behind a curtain. Behind the curtain, a fish is talking into a microphone, and saying exactly what Mr. Magic is saying. The fish claims he is technically Mr. Magic, but he cannot help SpongeBob. SpongeBob is angry because of this, and exclaims loudly that his faith in the magical arts is ruined, before Mr. Magic gets security to kick SpongeBob and Patrick out.

Characters

Synopsis

SpongeBob is preparing popcorn for himself and Gary. The popcorn flies into his living room and he settles down to watch television, when a commercial comes on for a magic kit, which SpongeBob decides to order.

4 to 6 weeks later, SpongeBob receives the kit in the mail and decides to show Squidward his skills in the magical arts. He tries to demonstrate a card trick to Squidward, but the latter heads out of Bikini Bottom on a bus passing by. Meanwhile, a boatmobile passing by with Monroe Timmy was upset because his ice cream cone was pistachio and his father couldn't understand why he got pistachio when he asked for it. Sooner the boat mobile hits a crack and the kid's pistachio ice cream cone flies and lands onto Squidward's chair. Because of this, SpongeBob thinks he has turned Squidward into an ice cream cone, and promises him that he will still be able to live a normal life.

Hocus Pocus 071

Some time later at Goo Lagoon, SpongeBob notices the Squidward ice cream cone is melting, forcing SpongeBob to rush it home and puts the Squidward ice cream cone in the freezer. Patrick shows up and SpongeBob explains what has happened to him. Patrick attempts to eat the Squidward ice cream cone, but the Squidward ice cream cone melts. Just then, SpongeBob realizes that Mr. Magic can help them, so he and Patrick pay him a visit.

The floating fish head tells them that he cannot help SpongeBob, and then Patrick notices a leg sticking out from behind a curtain. Behind the curtain, a fish is talking into a microphone, and saying exactly what Mr. Magic is saying. The fish claims he is technically Mr. Magic, but he cannot help SpongeBob. SpongeBob is angry because of this, and exclaims loudly that his faith in the magical arts is ruined, before Mr. Magic gets security to kick SpongeBob and Patrick out.

Hocus Pocus 152

Back in the neighborhood, SpongeBob is still grieving, when Squidward shows up, making SpongeBob believe he really is magic. Squidward then runs away, yet again. Patrick later requests SpongeBob to turn him into a jar of mayonnaise. SpongeBob does so, and amazingly, it works.
