Patrick Star is SpongeBob's best friend as well as one of his neighbors, and also the deuteragonist of the show. He is a naïve and overweight pink sea star. Patrick is the son of Herb and Margie Star and brother of Sam Star. He is voiced by Bill Fagerbakke and first appears in the episode "Help Wanted."

SpongeBob finds out that Patrick’s "job" is fake in the episode "Rock-a-Bye Bivalve."

He lives under a rock in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob and Squidward are his neighbors. Both Patrick and SpongeBob bother Squidward, though they they do it unknowingly and have good intentions.

Biography

He was born as the second of two children of Margie and Herb Star.

Sam was lost at sea when she and Patrick were children. He did not see her again until the episode "Big Sister Sam."

Patrick met SpongeBob when the two were babies.

When he was an adult, he moved out and rented a rock house eventually to own it. He lives next door to Squidward.

Patrick was kicked out of his parents' house at one point and never allowed to come back. He thus created his rock, with the only difference being that he added a satellite antenna to it.

At some point, Patrick went to community college with Flats the Flounder, although he forgets what he studied there.

One day, when his neighbor Squidward was gardening, a pineapple fell from a ship into the ocean, landing on Squidward's garden creating the pineapple house. Meanwhile, SpongeBob was looking for a house of his own; when all hope seemed lost, SpongeBob and the real estate agent saw the pineapple house's creation and Patty said she had forgotten about the house. SpongeBob bought it. To this day, they have been neighbors.

Later, he gained and lost his drivers license.

At some point, Patrick learned how to put on a diaper.

At some point, he met Grandma SquarePants.

He met Sandy the day after SpongeBob did.

He once rented out his front yard to a fish named Howard.

He, along with SpongeBob, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, Sandy, and Plankton became superheroes while on land to retrieve the Krabby Patty secret formula from Burger Beard.

Description

Patrick is an obese, coral-pink starfish with a pointy head, thick eyebrows, and red dots across his body. In season 1, due to unsteady animation, his eyebrows were thin, and in the shape of a couple of M's. The flowers on his pants were also dark purple instead of light. In the beginning in season 2, his eyebrows were slightly thicker and shaped like the letter Z. Patrick is shown to have either a full set of teeth, a single tooth, or sometimes none at all.

He usually wears lime green pants with lavender flowers on them. The first movie reveals that he wears Goofy Goober underwear, which he wore for three years straight. He changed out of them upon becoming a "man." When sleeping alone, he normally just wears plain underwear, but when he has company, he wears lavender pajamas with pale green flowers on them, along with a matching nightcap.

Unlike most of the other main characters of the series, Patrick lacks a nose. Because of this, he generally cannot smell, as seen in "Something Smells," in which SpongeBob has bad breath. However, in "The Battle of Bikini Bottom," Patrick is able to grow a nose through sheer force of will. In "No Nose Knows," Patrick receives a nose through plastic surgery. He goes through many noses; however, when Patrick tries to get rid of every bad scent, SpongeBob, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and Sandy deform Patrick's nose by building a giant ball of trash and sewage so the nose can disintegrate.

Creation and development

Stephen Hillenburg first became fascinated with the ocean and began developing his artistic abilities as a child. During college, he majored in marine biology and minored in art. He planned to return to college eventually to pursue a master's degree in art. After graduating in 1984, he joined the Ocean Institute, an organization dedicated to educating the public about marine science and maritime history. While he was there, he initially had the idea that would lead to the creation of SpongeBob SquarePants: a comic book titled The Intertidal Zone. In 1987, Hillenburg left the institute to pursue a career in animation.

A few years after studying experimental animation at the California Institute of the Arts, Hillenburg met Joe Murray, creator of the Nickelodeon series Rocko's Modern Life, at an animation festival, and was offered a job as a director of the show. Martin Olson, one of the writers for Rocko's Modern Life, read The Intertidal Zone and encouraged Hillenburg to create a television series with a similar concept. At that point, Hillenburg had not even considered creating his own series. However, he realized that if he ever did, this would be the best approach. Production on Rocko's Modern Life ended in 1996. Shortly afterwards, Hillenburg began working on SpongeBob SquarePants.

For the show's characters, Hillenburg started to draw and used character designs from his comic book—including starfish, crab, and sponge. He described Patrick as "probably the dumbest guy in town". Patrick Star was conceived as a starfish to embody the animal's nature; according to Hillenburg, starfish look "dumb and slow," but they are "very active and aggressive" in reality, like Patrick. Hillenburg incorporated character comedy rather than topical humor on the show to emphasize "things that are more about humorous situations and about characters and their flaws." He designed Patrick and SpongeBob as such because "they're whipping themselves up into situations—that's always where the humor comes from. The rule is: Follow the innocence and avoid topical [humor]."

In spite of being depicted as having a good temperament or state of mind, Patrick has been shown in some episodes to have a tantrum. Patrick's emotional outbreak was originally written only for the first season episode "Valentine's Day," where SpongeBob and Sandy try to give Patrick a Valentine's Day gift, and "was supposed to be a one-time thing." However, according to episode writer Jay Lender, "when that show came back it felt so right that his dark side started popping up everywhere. You can plan ahead all you want, but the characters eventually tell you who they are."

Every main character in the show has its own unique footstep sound. The sound of Patrick's footsteps is recorded by the show's Foley crew, with a Foley talent wearing a slip-on shoe. Jeff Hutchins, show's sound designer said, "[Going] barefoot makes it tough to have much presence, so we decided that Patrick would be performed with shoes on."

Voice

Patrick's voice is provided by actor Bill Fagerbakke, who also does the voices of numerous other characters on SpongeBob SquarePants. While creating the show and writing its pilot episode in 1997, Hillenburg and Derek Drymon, the show's then-creative director, were also conducting auditions to find voices for the show's characters. Fagerbakke auditioned for the role of Patrick after Tom Kenny, SpongeBob's voice actor, had been cast. Fagerbakke said, "Steve is such a lovely guy, and I had absolutely no feeling for the material whatsoever." He described his experience in the audition, saying "I was just going in for another audition, and I had no idea what was in store there in terms of the remarkable visual wit and really the kind of endearing child-like humanity in the show. I couldn't pick that up from the audition material at all. I was just kind of perfunctorially trying to give the guy what he wanted."

Fagerbakke referred to Patrick as "AquaDauber," a reference to his role as Michael "Dauber" Dybinski on the 1990s sitcom Coach in the first few years of working on the show. Patrick is "enormously entertaining to portray" because, according to Fagerbakke, "when I'm performing Patrick, there are many secrets that I could never divulge". Fagerbakke's approach in voicing Patrick is "much the same way I would do [to] any kind of character." "I'm always looking for opportunities to explore that freewheeling imagination and insanity of children. To be able to plug in to that and let that carry you in to a performance is such a gas, I have so much fun with that. I love kids; I raised two girls and I love being a parent," he said. The cast members record as a whole cast. Fagerbakke says that the situation improves his performance as a voice actor because "there is something remarkable that happens when people are working together that is unique to that." Fagerbakke modeled his performance whenever Patrick is angry after that of American actress Shelley Winters.

Fagerbakke has been compared to Patrick's character, which he concurs with. Kenny said that "Bill [Fagerbakke] is a big guy. The world is almost too small for him. He's a force of nature, like Patrick." Writer Jay Lender said, describing Fagerbakke in the recording studio, "Bill Fagerbakke is the most thoughtful performer I've ever seen in the booth—he was always asking questions and really trying to get into the mindset, such as it is, of Patrick." Writer Kent Osborne said of Fagerbakke, "He is this big guy, and he plays Patrick so well. He's just this big guy, and he lumbers around." Fagerbakke said, "I'm clumsy. I'm goofy. I make mistakes all the time" and agreed that "I guess I'm a lot of Patrick."

Personality

Patrick's portrayal is pleasant, overweight, lazy, unmannerly, naïve, and generally ignorant. Despite being a full-grown adult, Patrick acts immature for his age and partakes in many childish activities with SpongeBob.

He has a short temper and can get triggered to large extents if something upsets him: In "Nature Pants," Patrick goes on a psycho spree throughout Jellyfish Fields and attempts to kidnap SpongeBob when the latter decides to live with the jellyfish. In "Valentine's Day," Patrick causes mass disruption at the carnival in retaliation for having yet to receive a present. In "Big Pink Loser," Patrick furiously scrapes the top of a broomstick on the Krusty Krab floorboards out of anger that he can't do anything right. In "The Fry Cook Games," he goes berserk when SpongeBob erases a part of his name tag to make it say "Rick." In "No Weenies Allowed," Patrick gets angry whenever he is called "Tubby," and punches SpongeBob in response to him addressing him like that.

Patrick suffers from low self-esteem and can exhibit extreme levels of jealousy when witnessing the success of others. In "Valentine's Day," he expresses jealousy toward everyone who received a gift and invokes revenge by causing disruption at the carnival and breaking everything in sight. In "Big Pink Loser," Patrick expresses anger toward SpongeBob for receiving abundant awards and having the ability to do everything right in contrast to him. In "No Hat for Pat" and "Patrick-Man!," Patrick shows jealousy to SpongeBob for having a job and special worker's hat in contrast to him.

Patrick has an unusual mean streak that - depending on the episode - is either exhibited out of jealousy, low self-esteem, acquired situational narcissism, or simply stupidity. He is shown to lose respect for others when obtaining some form of power, talent, wealth, or publicity, and it usually drives him apart from SpongeBob. His rudeness became more serious as the post-movie era approached: Patrick had a mean streak in the pre-movie seasons but was mostly apologetic and regretful of his actions, and had a kindhearted personality overall. In the post-movie seasons, not only does Patrick rarely show any remorse or regret toward his rudeness, but he also lacks responsibility for his actions and is willing to throw others under the bus for his own wrongdoings, like in "Stuck in the Wringer" where he blames SpongeBob for the condition he's in, when it was really Patrick's fault for gluing him to the wringer. He also scolds people when they have a right to be hostile and angry, as seen in "Big Sister Sam" when Patrick singles SpongeBob and Squidward out for their disapproval of his sister, who is actually causing trouble and wreaking havoc. However, in "The Fish Bowl," Patrick actually does show remorse over his selfish and rude ways, marking a rare occasion in the post-movie era where this has happened,

Patrick is shown to have a hypocritical side, as he never follows any of the advice he gives SpongeBob: In "Grandma's Kisses," he tells SpongeBob to act like a grown-up but later behaves like a baby himself. When SpongeBob points out his hypocrisy, Patrick says that being a "grown-up" is boring and that he likes being a baby. In "Something Smells," when SpongeBob believes that he is shunned by everyone in town because they think he is ugly, Patrick tells him that he should accept his ugliness. Later, Patrick thinks he caught SpongeBob's ugliness and refuses to accept it, declaring that he was once one of the "beautiful people" (in reality, it was their bad breath that caused the townsfolk to ignore them). In "Yours, Mine and Mine," Patrick agrees to share the kids meal with SpongeBob, but later eats it all and persistently hogs the Patty Pal toy; when SpongeBob tries to reason with him, Patrick scolds SpongeBob over his lack of sharing, when Patrick himself is hogging the toy. In "Little Yellow Book," Patrick is among the many people who laugh at SpongeBob's secrets and joins in on lambasting Squidward for doing so when SpongeBob runs away crying, throwing fruit at Squidward and calling him a "diary reader." When Squidward points out that Patrick also read the diary, Patrick blows him off and accuses him of "blaming everyone else."

Despite this, he still wants to help his friends, even if he doesn't do it right. He enjoys nothing more than spending time with SpongeBob, and will always turn to him when things don't seem right or when he wants to show off something that he thinks he succeeds in, even though he rarely does if ever. Patrick is a nice person at heart and has had many positive interactions with the townspeople; he even genuinely cares about Squidward despite the latter's open hatred of him and SpongeBob.

Intelligence

Patrick is well known for his dimwitted, naïve, and lazy nature. He wants to spend time dwelling in his rock and lacks common sense, which often means that he is incapable of doing things right, as explained when he was briefly employed at the Krusty Krab when trying to earn an award in "Big Pink Loser."

In some episodes, Patrick has trouble with even the most rudimentary tasks and displays little common sense or intelligence. His memory can be appalling and he can forget how to do the most instinctual of actions, such as eating or falling over. He once forgot that he ate a chocolate bar the second after he ate it in "Life of Crime," and can't open a jar without assistance in "Big Pink Loser."

Patrick seems to be aware of his stupidity and annoyance to others, as many throwaway lines in some episodes indicate: In "Home Sweet Pineapple," Patrick asks SpongeBob if it's already time to ruin Squidward's day upon waking up. In "I Had an Accident," when Sandy asks Patrick if he has to be stupid elsewhere, Patrick replies, "Not until 4:00." In "The Card," when SpongeBob expresses concern toward Patrick endangering a rare trading card, Patrick replies, "You can't expect my usual brand of stupidity. I like to mix it up a little, keep you on your toes." In "Tentacle-Vision," when Squidward asks him, "Just how dumb are you?," Patrick replies, "It varies."

Of note, Patrick's stupidity became more exaggerated as the post-movie seasons approached: Instead of being naïve but with hidden intellect, Patrick became so painfully stupid to the point of forgetting the most obvious details about his best friend. This is best exemplified in "You Don't Know Sponge," and is also a driving point on the said episode's storyline.

At other times, he can appear almost so brilliant that it surprises the other characters, and is prone to fits of temporary intelligence, which confuses the other characters. In earlier episodes, Patrick appeared to be somewhat more intelligent, often making profound comments and often being very articulate, such as when he, having messed up Mr. Krabs' first dollar with SpongeBob, complained about the fact that his first dollar is just an ordinary dollar and he should replace it with another ordinary dollar, though he forgets about it at the end and ends up buying a candy bar, much to SpongeBob's dismay. In "Help Wanted," Patrick was shown to be more competent when it came to giving advice, as he encouraged SpongeBob to apply for his lifelong dream job. In "SB-129," Patrick seems to be aware of Squidward's hatred toward him and SpongeBob, though in later episodes he is just as oblivious as SpongeBob in terms of their annoyance to Squidward.

Patrick seems to detect malice and sarcasm more easily than SpongeBob. He also displays witty banter at times and often can be sarcastic. He is generally well-intentioned but often inadvertently causes trouble, for both himself and also his friends, such as in "Patrick-Man!" when he gets Mrs. Puff arrested and trashes the Krusty Krab, although he also ended up saving the Krusty Krab from the Dirty Bubble.

Interests and hobbies

Patrick mainly likes to dwell in his rock and act lazy and unproductive. He usually partakes in sitting on the couch, watching TV, eating junk food, and sleeping. However, he does go outside every now and then, typically to hang out with his best friend. Whenever doing so, he and SpongeBob like to indulge in their two favorite hobbies: bubble blowing and jellyfishing. He is also shown to enjoy sand-boarding, even if he is not very good at it. In addition to bubble blowing and jellyfishing, Patrick and SpongeBob have a fondness for engaging in child-like activities, such as playing pretend, toys, and board games, as exemplified in numerous episodes over the course of the series, like "Toy Store of Doom" and "A Friendly Game."

Patrick has an obsession with junk food, and will stop at nothing to fulfill his enormous appetite. He is a Krusty Krab regular and enjoys eating their Krabby Patties, as well as Triple Gooberberry Sunrises from Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat. He has a bizarre taste in food and has low standards when it comes to appetite: His favorite flavor of ice cream is Dill Pickle Swirl with mustard and bacon bits, and enjoyed some of SpongeBob's peanut onion sundae in "Something Smells." He has a frequent tendency to rummage through garbage cans and dumpsters and eat the thrown-away food they have to offer. Patrick has shown himself willing to consume inedible sources, and notably enjoys them: In "Little Yellow Book," he proudly eats diapers covered in ketchup. In "Pet Sitter Pat" and "Gary's New Toy," he has no problem eating snail food.

Like SpongeBob, Patrick's favorite television series is The Adventures of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, and he idolizes the titular duo. He and SpongeBob have difficulty containing their excitement whenever meeting Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy in person, much to the heroes' annoyance, and view the duo as role models in that Patrick and SpongeBob frequently dress up as them and emulate their heroic antics.

Patrick also seems to be a fan of the rock band Stingray 5000, as he expresses remorse upon witnessing a copy of one of the band's album in the dumpster in "Missing Identity" and shows his appreciation for their music.

Patrick is shown to idolize Jeffrey the Jellyfish, and once exhibited an unhealthy obsession with him by persistently touching him despite the security guard's objections, and eventually succeeded in kidnapping him.

Patrick and SpongeBob like to go to Glove World!, a glove-themed amusement park in Bikini Bottom. They show their dedication to the park by buying its merchandise and wearing their marketed apparel.

Antagonistic roles

Despite being a friend of SpongeBob, he has done some villainous acts that affect one or more of the Bikini Bottomites, including SpongeBob himself. This is a list of episodes where he plays a villainous role:

• "Jellyfishing" - He and SpongeBob force Squidward to go jellyfishing against his will, even when he gets badly injured.
• "Opposite Day" - He and SpongeBob pretend to be Squidward and ruin his chances of moving out of his Moai head.
• "Valentine's Day" - He causes rampage at the Valentine's Day Carnival because no one gave him any Valentine's Day gifts except for SpongeBob, which turned out to be something as little as a handshake.
• "Suds" - Patrick impersonates a doctor in an attempt to cure SpongeBob of the suds, but doesn't help matters.
• "Life of Crime"- He and SpongeBob steal a balloon and are eventually put in jail for a few seconds. However, since it was National Free Balloon Day, this act can't realistically be branded on Patrick's antagonistic side. He also accuses SpongeBob of eating his chocolate bar, even though he ate his earlier.
• "Dumped" - This is one of his most villainous roles yet. He bluntly keeps Gary away from SpongeBob even though the latter is trying hard to get Gary back; Patrick ignores the signs that SpongeBob wants Gary back and doesn't pay attention to the fact that SpongeBob is heartbroken.
• "Band Geeks" - He starts a fight against Sandy as a result of misinterpretation of Squidward's instruction.
• "I'm with Stupid" - He and SpongeBob pretended that the latter is stupid to make him look smarter in front of his parents, but he started milking the moment and started treating SpongeBob like dirt, ruthlessly insulting him, causing his best friend to scream at the top of his voice and run away.
• "Rock-a-Bye Bivalve" - When they adopt a baby scallop, he makes SpongeBob do all the work, while he just watches TV and eats junk food.
• "Driven to Tears" - He and SpongeBob fight, which leads to them both being arrested.
• "Rule of Dumb" - He becomes king of Bikini Bottom and abuses his power (up until Squidward spoke out against him) and when he returns the crown.
• "Best Day Ever" - He uses SpongeBob's new jellyfishing net for the entire day, refusing to let SpongeBob have a turn.
• "Good Ol' Whatshisname" - It is unknown what he did here, but he did something that resulted in his arrest, as evidenced by him sharing a cell with Squidward in jail at the end of the episode.
• "The Splinter" - Patrick, once again, impersonates a doctor to try and help SpongeBob but things are only far worsened.
• "The Card" - This is one of his most villainous roles yet. Patrick frequently and deliberately endangers an extremely rare trading card that belongs to SpongeBob. This episode also implies that Patrick fakes his stupidity on purpose to get away with his sociopathic behavior.
• "No Nose Knows" - After Patrick got his nose, he decided to cause trouble by making everything "smelly" and "clean."
• "Sand Castles in the Sand" - He and SpongeBob fight in Goo Lagoon.
• "Stuck in the Wringer" - He cripples SpongeBob and shows no sympathy for him, rather he just shows his selfish side.
• "Yours, Mine and Mine" - This is one of his biggest antagonisms yet. Due to his extremely selfish nature, he and SpongeBob battle over a licensed Krusty Krab toy, but Patrick eats it as Mr. Krabs gives one to each despite SpongeBob being the one to front all the money.
• "Big Sister Sam"- He allows his sister to demolish Squidward and SpongeBob's houses, hurt them, and scolds them for being mad about it.
• "Patrick's Staycation" - Patrick is ungrateful to SpongeBob throughout the episode.
• "Pet Sitter Pat" - This is one of his biggest antagonisms yet. Patrick causes serious harm to Gary, shoots a running hose at him in an attempt to get him to bathe, chases him down and almost kills him with a flamethrower, and comments that although he found none, he is about to dry Gary off with salt, which can kill snails; instead he uses a hair dryer, which crinkles Gary's skin.
• "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom" - He eats Squidward's tickets for a Kelpy G concert.
• "The Fish Bowl" - He is put in charge by Sandy during her behavioral experiment. However, as the experiment gets further, Patrick gets carried away with being in charge and selfishly takes advantage of his own privileges and of SpongeBob by making him do whatever he tells him to do. However, unlike other episodes where he shows no remorse for his wrongdoings, Patrick later sees the error of his ways and starts to regret his actions.
• "Ink Lemonade" - This is one of his biggest antagonisms yet. Patrick attempts to scare Squidward in attempt to get his ink, with no remorse over Squidward when he gets paranoid and goes crazy.

Abilities and talents

Patrick, although mentally weak and naïve, has many skills, such as:

• CPR administration: In "Naughty Nautical Neighbors," Patrick shows the ability to utilize CPR as he uses it to save Squidward after he nearly chokes on a fork (while laughing at SpongeBob and Patrick fight).
• Dancing: Patrick once jazz-danced with SpongeBob in "Squidtastic Voyage" and wanted to go square-dancing with Squidward in "Just One Bite," but Squidward didn't want to do it, which made Patrick feel sad.
• Disguising: In "That's No Lady," Patrick stays in disguise as "Patricia" for a long time. He takes off the suit, embarrassing Squidward and Mr. Krabs.
• Doing absolutely nothing: In "Big Pink Loser," he gets an award for "doing absolutely nothing longer than anyone else." In "The Pink Purloiner," he does nothing for 8 hours straight, while SpongeBob is spying on him. In "Stanley S. SquarePants," Patrick shows SpongeBob and Stanley the art of doing nothing.
• Driving: Patrick has shown to be an excellent driver, unlike SpongeBob as seen in "Driven to Tears."
• Drumming: When it comes to music, Patrick's main instrument is the drums. He was the lead drummer in the Bikini Bottom Super Band. He also drums in "Squidward's House Party," "Tentacle-Vision," and at the end of the "Campfire Song Song" in "The Camping Episode." He also plays a drum solo on his stomach in "Krabby Road."
• Eating: Patrick is shown to have an enormous appetite and can swallowing large amounts of food in one bite. In "Pressure," Patrick eats a Deluxe Krabby Patty in one bite. He also eats an entire table of breakfast foods in "Rock-a-Bye-Bivalve." He was once able to eat 1,000 Krabby Patties in 5 minutes, which is seen in "What's Eating Patrick?" Patrick seems to be able to use his mouth like a vacuum cleaner, as seen when he devours the various picnic foods in "Club SpongeBob" and the high quantity of Krabby Patties with extra cheese in "Pat No Pay."
• Jellyfishing: Patrick sometimes forgets how to jellyfish, however once reminded, he does it particularly well.
• Karate chopping: In "Karate Star," Patrick is a skilled karate "genius" at chopping. However, his hand started to go out of control and he cut it off, regenerating his limbs like SpongeBob in "Graveyard Shift."
• Performing extreme stunts: Patrick is sometimes an ultimate daredevil, as seen in "I Had an Accident" and "A Life in a Day." In the latter, he performed several dangerous acts in order to emulate Larry's lifestyle, although he gave up when he learned of how life-threatening this can be. He also does a few moderately extreme stunts in "Extreme Spots."
• Regeneration: In "Karate Star," Patrick goes completely crazy and rips his arm off which a new Patrick grew from. Once he explained to SpongeBob starfish regenerate their arms, they were both fine with it.
• Seahorse riding: In "Dunces and Dragons," Patrick does not know how to ride a seahorse; however, in "A Life in a Day," he can do it particularly well.
• Singing: Patrick has never had a solo and rarely sings; however, he does it fairly well when he does.
• Staring: Patrick is good at staring with SpongeBob in their staring contest game in various episodes.
• Strength: Patrick is shown to be very physically strong; in many episodes, he can lift his rock. In "What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?" and "Squid Baby," he is strong enough to lift the entire road. In many video games, such as Battle for Bikini Bottom, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie video game, and SpongeBob's Atlantis SquarePantis, his special ability is to pick up and throw heavy objects and even his friends. Also, in "Patrick-Man!," he throws really heavy objects with ease and in "The Play's the Thing," he is shown to throw an anchor with ease. However, in "Krusty Krushers," he cannot even tear a piece of paper apart and then gets a paper cut.
• Survival skills: In "To Save a Squirrel," he and SpongeBob nearly eat each other to survive. He also made earmuffs out of his own belly button lint so they could play without Sandy harassing them in "Survival of the Idiots." He also made warm clothing out of her fur.

Criminal record

File:084c - Good Ol' Whatshisname 421.jpg

Patrick in jail in the episode "Good Ol' Whatshisname"

Despite his naivete, Patrick has committed many crimes throughout the series, a number of which have been caused by his stupidity. These offenses range from simple ticket-worthy infractions to felonies. He has been arrested five times: for "stealing" a balloon in "Life of Crime," for unknown reasons in "SpongeBob Meets the Strangler" and "Good Ol' Whatshisname," littering in "Driven to Tears" (which was actually SpongeBob's fault), violating a restraining order in "Restraining SpongeBob," and impersonating an executive in "The Executive Treatment." However, due to his naïve mindset, a majority of these crimes were committed unintentionally. The following is a run-down of crimes that Patrick has been guilty of:

• Aircraft hijacking: In "Sandy's Rocket," he and SpongeBob hijack Sandy's spaceship and use it for their own purpose.
• Animal cruelty: Patrick is shown to be a very harmful pet sitter to Gary in "Pet Sitter Pat." He forces his bath time by threatening him with a running hose, uses salt to dry him off, and lastly threatens and even nearly kills him with a flamethrower.
• Arson: In "Pranks a Lot," Patrick and SpongeBob threaten to burn a dollar bill that belongs to Mr. Krabs in order to traumatize him. Patrick also burns many of SpongeBob's belongings while using the flamethrower in "Pet Sitter Pat."
• Assault: In "Jellyfishing," oblivious to the fact that he can't hold his net due to his bandages, Patrick forcefully shoves the end of a jellyfish net in Squidward's injured tentacle, adding insult to injury. In "Band Geeks," he starts a fight with Sandy to "do some kicking," as instructed by Squidward, though Patrick interprets this literally. Patrick also punches SpongeBob in "No Weenies Allowed" for insulting him (which SpongeBob did to prove his toughness to Reg). In "Wigstruck," Patrick notices SpongeBob wearing a wig; believing that it is a monster attacking him, Patrick assaults SpongeBob to rid him of said wig. In "Oral Report," Patrick increases SpongeBob's oral anxiety by assaulting him with several objects like a treadmill and pillows. In "The Good Krabby Name," Patrick beats up SpongeBob as he is dressed up in a Krabby Patty costume, believing that a killer Krabby Patty is eating SpongeBob; however this was done with good intentions, as Patrick did it out of defense.
• Assisting a crime: In "Doing Time," Patrick assists SpongeBob in his local bank robbery scheme, intent on getting arrested to free Mrs. Puff from jail.
• Attempted cannibalism: In "To Save a Squirrel," SpongeBob and Patrick resort to making several attempts to eat each other while on the verge of starvation in the cave.
• Attempted kidnapping: In "Nature Pants," Patrick follows SpongeBob around Jellyfish Fields and attempts to abduct him with his jellyfish net to bring him back home. In "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!," Patrick surrounds his rock with booby traps to capture Santa. This attempt backfires on Patrick when he himself gets stuck in the traps. He succeeds in kidnapping Santa in the end, though (see below).
• Attempted murder: In "Karate Star," Patrick's love for karate goes to his head and prompts him to nearly slice a baby in half, until SpongeBob talks him out of it.
• Attempted theft: In "Mid-Life Crustacean," Patrick, SpongeBob, and Mr. Krabs attempt to steal Betsy Krabs' panties, as part of the "panty raid."
• Breaking and entering: In "Mid-Life Crustacean," Patrick, SpongeBob, and Mr. Krabs break into Betsy Krabs' house at night to steal her panties, as part of the "panty raid." In "The Thing," Patrick and SpongeBob burglarize the zoo at night, although this was done with innocent intentions since Squidward got misplaced as an animal there, though they are still caught and chased after by the SWAT Team. In "Spy Buddies," Patrick and SpongeBob sneak into the Chum Bucket at night through the roof, despite the door allowing entrance; they did this since spies apparently do not use the door to enter places. In "Safe Deposit Krabs," SpongeBob and Patrick break into the local bank at night, although they had good intentions since they did it to free Mr. Krabs from the safe.
• Broadcast signal intrusion: In "Sing a Song of Patrick," SpongeBob and Patrick climb to the top of a radio station's antenna and place a record player atop of it to blast the song "I Wrote This," interrupting the station's broadcast.
• Defamation: In "Once Bitten," Patrick spreads libel about "Mad Snail Disease."
• Disturbing the peace: Committed several times, typically while engaging in childish games with SpongeBob, which often disturbs Squidward as he's minding his own business, however only the instances where it caused a major and more public problem will be held on his criminal record. In "Valentine's Day," Patrick causes pure disorderly conduct at the carnival by running around, yelling, and breaking everything in sight. In "Life of Crime," he and SpongeBob resort to making crazed noises in the middle of the street upon discovering their new identities as "criminals," with the townspeople mistaking them as street performers. Patrick also engages in a fight with Sandy during music class in "Band Geeks." In "New Student Starfish," SpongeBob and Patrick engage in an argument in the middle of the school hallway. In "Sing a Song of Patrick," SpongeBob and Patrick hijack a radio broadcast signal to blast the song "I Wrote This" at night throughout the entire town. This causes the citizens displeasure and leads them to form a mob. In "The Battle of Bikini Bottom," the boys run into the Krusty Krab while having a fight over clean and dirty, disturbing the peace of Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and the customers. In "Stuck in the Wringer," SpongeBob and Patrick engage in a verbal fight in the middle of the carnival. In "Yours, Mine and Mine," Patrick and SpongeBob fight over the Patty Pal toy in various public places. In "A Friendly Game," Patrick and SpongeBob's indoor golf game becomes so disruptive to the point of awakening Squidward from his sleep, resulting in a noise complaint from him.
• Eco-terrorism: In "The Thing," he and SpongeBob go to the zoo at night to free "Smelly" out of his cage. However considering that Squidward was mistaken as an animal and wrongfully put in the zoo in the first place, this crime can be justified. Although, they still have the SWAT Team chase after them.
• Encouraging a crime: In "Hooky," Patrick encourages SpongeBob to ditch work during his shift to go to the "carnival."
• Facilitating escape: Throughout the middle of "Doing Time," SpongeBob and Patrick attempt to free Mrs. Puff from jail without consent from correctional officers.
• False advertising: In "Chocolate with Nuts," as a means to boost their profit as salesmen, SpongeBob and Patrick spread lies to their customers about the chocolate bars they're selling, claiming them to have special abilities. In "Ink Lemonade," he and SpongeBob sell Squidward's ink to the public and categorize it as lemonade.
• False imprisonment: In "Pranks a Lot," SpongeBob and Patrick trap Mr. Krabs in the Krusty Krab to traumatize and torment him as they are invisible and acting as ghosts. In "Shuffleboarding," while Patrick and SpongeBob are dressed as Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, they arrest people for actions that do not count as offenses (e.g. chewing gum too loudly, having untied shoes, being too old).
• Framing: In "SpongeBob Meets the Strangler," Patrick is wrongfully told that he is the Tattletale Strangler and subsequently reports himself to the authorities for a crime he didn't commit. In "Patrick-Man!," Patrick accuses Mrs. Puff of boat jacking, leading to her false arrest.
• Harassment/Intimidation: An ongoing plot point of the episode "Bulletin Board" is a mysterious customer by the identity of "P-Star 77" leaving harassing and intimidating notes on the Krusty Krab's new bulletin board. The person behind these notes is revealed near the ending to be Patrick, who apologizes for his actions and reveals that he didn't want his messages to be taken seriously.
• Identity theft: In "Opposite Day," he and SpongeBob impersonate Squidward and claim his house as their property, intent on annoying the real estate agent and preventing Squidward from moving out of town. In "The Executive Treatment," Patrick is arrested for posing as an executive so as to buy the Executive Treatment sandwich.
• Indecent exposure: In "Pranks a Lot," he and SpongeBob take their clothes off in public to use the invisible spray since it stains clothes. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Patrick flies across the stage of the grand opening ceremony completely nude, his motive being his desire for attention. At the end of "That's No Lady," he rips his clothes off at the Krusty Krab to reveal that he is not a woman.
• Kidnapping: In "Sandy's Rocket," SpongeBob and Patrick go around abducting the townspeople out of fear that the entire population is formed of aliens. In "I'm Your Biggest Fanatic," he succeeds in kidnapping Jeffrey the Jellyfish at the end. In "It's a SpongeBob Christmas!," Patrick abducts Santa Claus with a jellyfishing net.
• Littering: In "Driven to Tears," Patrick is wrongfully arrested for allegedly ripping his own driver's license and littering it. SpongeBob eventually confesses to committing the crime, taking Patrick's place in jail thereafter. In "Sanitation Insanity," Patrick impulsively refuses to give SpongeBob and Squidward his trash cans for no reason; he then engages them in a trash fight. However, their reckless fighting causes them to spread trash all over Bikini Bottom. As punishment, he, Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob, and Squidward are sentenced to many hours of community service by picking up trash.
• Manslaughter: In "Sing a Song of Patrick," Patrick requests a band to perform his song, "I Wrote This." The song is so abhorrent that it leads to the passing of the band. This was completely unintentional on Patrick's part, though he doesn't seem to feel remorseful over the band's loss.
• Medical neglect: In "Suds," Patrick refuses to give SpongeBob professional medical attention on account of hospitals being "dangerous" and instead tries to counteract SpongeBob's suds with at-home remedies, which prove to be a disaster. In "Stuck in the Wringer," Patrick attempts to free SpongeBob from his bathroom wringer by using super glue on it, which only worsens matters and reinforces SpongeBob's inability to move. Throughout the episode, SpongeBob's body movements are extremely clumsy and cause him to get hurt, as well as interfering with his ability to consume food or drink (which would cause him to starve to death if the wringer weren't removed). Despite the pain SpongeBob is in, Patrick does not consider giving him medical attention and instead shifts the blame to SpongeBob (when it really is Patrick's fault that he became trapped in his wringer). However, near the episode's ending, Patrick's tears dissolve the glue, so he eventually did take action against the wringer and glue's negative effects.
• Negligence: In "Sun Bleached," Patrick neglects SpongeBob by going out with a group of women, essentially leaving him in the tanning booth for a protracted amount of time and resulting in development of a "sun bleached" tan.
• Piracy: In "Arrgh!," Patrick joins Mr. Krabs' pirate crew. Although he did not assault, rob, or sink any ships at sea, he did attempt to rob the Flying Dutchman's unearthed treasure chest, so it still counts nonetheless.
• Plagiarism: In "Big Pink Loser," Patrick models his rock after SpongeBob's pineapple to emulate his lifestyle.
• Practicing medicine without a license: In "Suds" and "The Splinter," Patrick acts like a doctor to SpongeBob despite not having a college bachelor's degree or doctor's insurance license, leading to disastrous treatment.
• Prison escape: At the end of "The Executive Treatment," Patrick runs out of jail with SpongeBob.
• Property damage: In "Christmas Who?," he and SpongeBob chop down Squidward's coral tree without his consent. In "Wet Painters," Patrick destroys Mr. Krabs' computer by smashing it on the dollar to eliminate the paint stain. In "Squidtastic Voyage," he destroys the control panel of Sandy's submarine with an ax. In "Spy Buddies," he melts the roof of the Chum Bucket with his laser pants. In "Pat No Pay," Patrick's misuse of the trash disposal causes the Krusty Krab to explode. In "The Card," Patrick endangers a trading card that belongs to SpongeBob throughout. In "Karate Star," Patrick's love for karate goes to his head, and results in him karate-chopping nearly everything he sees in public, eventually leading to the destruction of the Barg'N-Mart. In "Big Sister Sam," he allows his sister to demolish SpongeBob and Squidward's houses. In "Sandy's Nutmare," when Sandy learns that her tree is dying, Patrick attempts to chop down her tree for the wood with a hatchet. When Sandy tells him she can save her tree with science, Patrick throws the hatchet, which makes a hole in the treedome for water to come through. This definitely counts as property damage, as he was hurting the tree in the first place, damaged the treedome, and also said, "Good, we can use the wood," which showed that he clearly did not care that the tree was dying.
• Reckless driving: Patrick runs three red lights and makes dangerous U-turns in "Driven to Tears."
• Resisting arrest: In "The Thing," SpongeBob and Patrick run away and hide from the SWAT Team as they are about to be prosecuted for burglary and eco-terrorism.
• Sedition: In "SpongeBob's Last Stand," Patrick and SpongeBob resist the government-approved construction of Shelly Superhighway by holding up protest signs and performing a song about it. Their motive for this was to enforce the environmental safety of Jellyfish Fields, above which the highway is being constructed. The police eventually notice the boys rebelling against the government's authority and imprison them in the middle of nowhere (although, on SpongeBob's part, it was for playing sitar without a license).
• Shoplifting: In "Pat No Pay," Patrick eats a high number of Krabby Patties without paying for them. Mr. Krabs hires Patrick as a Krusty Krab employee as payback for his inability to pay a bill, but to no avail. Patrick violated the customer policy of restaurant businesses, as he ate their food without paying for it. In "Toy Store of Doom," SpongeBob and Patrick use many of the products sold at Toy Barrel without paying for them, and run out of the store wearing apparel that they didn't pay for. In "Gary's New Toy," Patrick rips open many bags of pet food at the Pet Store and eats their contents without prior purchase.
• Stalking/Harassment: In the post-movie seasons, Patrick and SpongeBob have a frequent tendency to disrespect Squidward's privacy and follow him around to show their affection towards him. In "Nature Pants," Patrick follows SpongeBob around Jellyfish Fields in desperation for him to return to Bikini Bottom. Throughout "Spy Buddies," SpongeBob and Patrick follow Plankton everywhere he goes, suspecting that he has some ulterior motive.
• Terrorism: In "Pranks a Lot," after buying invisible spray, SpongeBob and Patrick use it on themselves and get the idea to frighten the whole town under the identity of invisible "ghosts," even going as far as to trespass many people's homes to traumatize them. This causes the whole town of Bikini Bottom to panic and lands the boys on the front page of the daily newspaper.
• Theft: In "Life of Crime," SpongeBob and Patrick are put in jail for "stealing" a balloon, only to be paroled a few seconds later since it is National Free Balloon Day, thus disqualifying the act as a crime. In "Sing a Song of Patrick," Patrick steals a hundred dollar bill from SpongeBob and uses it to enter a contest, fully acknowledging that he used a dollar without the owner's consent. In "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom," Patrick steals concert tickets and backstage passes that were clearly meant for Squidward and SpongeBob, and--believing they are food--eats them. In "No Pictures, Please," Patrick puts on a hat that was dropped by a guide and wears it throughout, not thinking twice about returning it to its owner.
• Trespassing: SpongeBob and Patrick have a frequent tendency to enter Squidward's house without his consent, which reaches its epitome in "Good Neighbors." Additionally, in "Survival of the Idiots," he and SpongeBob enter Sandy's treedome during the winter with little regard to the "Keep Out" sign on the door. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, the duo trespasses into the Thug Tug without presenting ID prior, although they did this to retrieve the key to the Patty Wagon that was stolen by the boat jacker, so this can be justified. In "The Thing," he and SpongeBob hide in the sewers to hide from the SWAT team. In "Pranks a Lot," while invisible as a result of the spray's effects, SpongeBob and Patrick trespass many houses to scare the citizens with their invisibility. In "The Lost Mattress," Patrick and SpongeBob trespass the fence of the dump on Squidward's behalf, however, it is mostly Squidward's fault for making them do it in an attempt to get them murdered by the guard worm. In "Toy Store of Doom," SpongeBob and Patrick stay in Toy Barrel past its open hours and hide in a dollhouse so as not to be caught by the security guard. In "No Pictures Please," Patrick trespasses many people's homes while giving an enthusiastic stranger a tour on his favorite places in Bikini Bottom.
• Vandalism: In "Christmas Who?," SpongeBob and Patrick add Christmas decorations to Squidward's house despite his objections. In "Pranks a Lot," SpongeBob and Patrick - while disguised as ghosts - make unauthorized and disruptive alterations to the Krusty Krab by gluing the doors shut, replacing the windows with rubber, and clogging the toilets. In "Pet Sitter Pat," Patrick messes up the interior of SpongeBob's house as a result of the backfired attempts to bathe Gary with a hose and flamethrower. In "Patrick-Man!," Patrick's fight with the Dirty Bubble trashes the Krusty Krab. In "The Good Krabby Name," Patrick uses SpongeBob's absorbency to stamp several messages promoting the Krusty Krab on a building and back of a truck, per Mr. Krabs' advertising campaign. A police officer notices this and considers arresting the boys for graffiti, but--influenced by the vandalism's message--instead heads off to the Krusty Krab to order a Krabby Patty.
• Violation of a restraining order: In "Restraining SpongeBob," Patrick violates a restraining order filed against him by walking beyond his set limits. He is arrested off-screen for doing so.
• Violation of public health law: In "Big Pink Loser," Patrick's inability to do anything right angers him to the point of scraping the top of a broomstick on the Krusty Krab floorboards, which creates a mass amount of dust clouds and interferes with the customer's ability to eat and breathe pure oxygen. In "Sentimental Sponge," Patrick's house is shown to be full of garbage, which takes up a majority of the house's capacity, though he is not reprimanded by the sanitation police, unlike SpongeBob and Patrick.
• Violation of food safety law: In "The Donut of Shame," Patrick offers SpongeBob one half of a doughnut that he contaminated with his own saliva, dropped in the toilet, and stored in the back of his underwear. Due to this, SpongeBob potentially consumed Patrick's own oral ecology as well as C. difficile and E. coli; SpongeBob is shown notably sick as he eats the doughnut. In "Ink Lemonade," Patrick and SpongeBob sell Squidward's ink to the public, under the guise of lemonade.
• War crimes: In "The Battle of Bikini Bottom," Patrick and SpongeBob start a war between clean and dirty. In "Sand Castles in the Sand," they engage in a violent war using their sand creations.

Residence

File:ROCK.jpg

Patrick's house.

Patrick lives under a rock on 120 Conch Street, two doors down from SpongeBob, right next to Squidward, and 400-yards away from the Krusty Krab. His ID licenses show his address, one from "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III" and another from "Driven to Tears." The home's exterior is featureless, apart from a small, yellow weather vane, which has fallen off on numerous occasions. In some episodes, the rock has nothing under it, while in others, his house has an interior, like in "Patrick's Staycation," "The Donut of Shame," "No Nose Knows," and other episodes. As shown in "I'm with Stupid," he makes his own furniture but he is too lazy to make it sometimes, explaining the different states of his house.

File:Rise and Shine 11.png

One of the insides of Patrick's house

Sometimes, Patrick sleeps on the ceiling of his rock, although far more often he sleeps in a regular bed. Patrick spends much of his day sleeping under his rock. There are many inconsistencies in the depictions of his house due to the nature of the cartoon and utility treatment of backgrounds: In one episode, his house's depiction is nothing but a bed and a chest of drawers, yet in others, he appears to have a kitchen and a living room. In addition, certain episodes tend to depict the surface below the rock to be completely flat, while in others there is a considerable amount of depth below it. Patrick claims to have built the house himself. In "New Fish in Town," he puts his front yard up for rent. In some episodes, particularly the pre-movie seasons, he only has a TV and a chair in his house.

As Nickelodeon said of Patrick's house in a commercial bumper: "What's really beneath this famous rock? The home of Patrick Star. While the outside never changes, a closer look inside reveals that Patrick's house is never set in stone. Sometimes, there's just sand. Other times, there's a small den. Occasionally, there's a large master bedroom. And there's the Multi-Room Complex featuring an eat-in kitchen, arched doorways, and a hi-def TV. Rock on!"

An alternate Patrick exists in the universe seen in the shorts "What if SpongeBob was Gone." Without SpongeBob, he cannot jellyfish properly.

Bearded Patrick

Another alternate Patrick existed in the timeline where the Krabby Patty secret formula was never returned to Bikini Bottom after being stolen by Burger Beard the Pirate. This caused Patrick to rapidly age and grow a long beard. He encountered SpongeBob and Plankton when their time machine sent them 4 days into the future, where he was sitting on the sand-covered ruins of the Krusty Krab. He said that unlike everyone else; he still hadn't given up on SpongeBob because he wasn't very smart.

Relationships

SpongeBob

SpongeBob and Patrick have been best friends ever since they were born. They have spent a large majority of their life together and are very close to one another. Patrick cares about SpongeBob very much as shown in a multitude of episodes. He often tries to give SpongeBob the best advice he has even if it's very illogical. He also is shown to go to great lengths for SpongeBob such as trying to make SpongeBob his "trophy" just so that he and SpongeBob could be together again. He also shows great sorrow when not around SpongeBob, which he has mentioned frequently. He even followed SpongeBob to the bitter end on their journey to Shell City. Though he has been on bad terms with SpongeBob many times throughout the series, they always come back together as best friends.

Squidward

Patrick, along with SpongeBob, often annoys Squidward, although he thinks he is one of his best friends, Squidward doesn't reciprocate the "friendship." Unlike SpongeBob, Patrick has actually noticed that Squidward didn't like them but was incorrectly assured by SpongeBob they were his friends. Squidward, for the most part, thinks Patrick is annoying and dumb, even worse than SpongeBob. He has sometimes got along with Squidward though, such as "Naughty Nautical Neighbors" and "Band Geeks," although they only last for short amounts of time as Squidward regularly shows his contempt for Patrick or the latter gains the sense to be annoyed with Squidward like in "Wishing You Well." Despite that, Squidward is actually Patrick's best friend after Spongebob as he defended Patrick as shown when he quickly stopped Mr. Krabs from scamming a naive Patrick of his ice cream coupon in "Patrick's Coupon."

Sandy Cheeks

Patrick and Sandy are close friends. Although Sandy has numerously been annoyed by Patrick's utter stupidity and on occasion has threatened to attack Patrick as shown in "Texas" and "Survival of the Idiots," the two usually get along very well.

Mr. Krabs

His relationship with Mr. Krabs is a complex one, for the most part, Mr. Krabs thinks Patrick is too dumb to be bothered with, although he sometimes takes him as an employee and occasionally acts as a father figure towards him (as seen in "Sailor Mouth" and "Hooky"). Usually, when Patrick acts as an employee for Mr. Krabs, it doesn't end well, as when in "Big Pink Loser" when he was a disaster of an employee, or "Restraining SpongeBob" when he was so much worse than SpongeBob as a middleman, Squidward actually replaced SpongeBob with Patrick on the restraining order.

Plankton

Patrick and Plankton have only interacted a few times, but the times they do interact Plankton often despises his idiocy. In the episode "Chum Bucket Supreme," Patrick helps Plankton get customers by creating a slogan.

Mrs. Puff

Patrick and Mrs. Puff barely interact, but when they do, Patrick often shows a dislike for her. In the episode "New Student Starfish" he calls her "A big fat meanie. " In the episode "Patrick-Man!" he gets her arrested because he thought she was trying to break into someone's car.

Trivia

Patrick's Citizen Identification

Patrick's driver license

• Patrick has an innie belly button, as seen in "You Don't Know Sponge."
• Patrick appears to be able to fly, as seen in "The Sponge Who Could Fly" and "Night Light."
• His lifelong dream is to defeat the Giant Monkey Men and save the ninth dimension, as revealed in "Big Pink Loser."
• According to his driver's license, Patrick weighs 2 ounces.
• In seasons 1 through 3, Patrick had been shown with plenty of teeth, but in the post-movie seasons, he has been shown with only one tooth.
• A running gag, which was mostly used in season 1, is that when Patrick opens up his rock while lying on it, he slips off of it and falls into his living room.
• In "Christmas Who?," Patrick calls pencils "writing sticks."
• Patrick's Citizen Identification card number is A1359723.
• Unlike SpongeBob, Patrick is shown to be a good driver, as seen when he helps SpongeBob in his driving test in "Boating School."
  • In "Driven to Tears," he earns a perfect score and gets his license, though his driving is shown to be terrible.
  • In "Slide Whistle Stooges," he is shown driving again.
• "The Bully" reveals that he went to community college.
• Every time Patrick sees mermaids, he falls in love with them, as seen in "Welcome To The Bikini Bottom Triangle" and in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.
• When Patrick thinks, his brain releases foul-smelling steam.
• Patrick's favorite color is aquamarine.
• Patrick had no sense of smell in "Something Smells," but could later smell in "Rock-a-Bye Bivalve." He also wished he had a nose in "No Nose Knows" (and briefly in "Missing Identity"), though it is shown in "The Battle of Bikini Bottom" that he had the ability to grow a nose, and has a small nose hole, as seen in "Wet Painters" and "That's No Lady."
• As seen in "Christmas Who?" and "Sing a Song of Patrick," he does not know how to use a pencil. However, in "Patty Caper," Patrick is able to draw Squidward perfectly.
• In some episodes, Patrick has brown eyes instead of blue or they have no Iris.
• In "Truth or Square," it said that Patrick's real name is "Patrick Sea-Star," not Patrick Star.
• In some episodes, his real last name is stated to be "Starfish" instead of "Star" or "Seastar."
• In many episodes, when something confuses Patrick, he usually says "I don't get it."
• The concept of Patrick being stupid is based on the appearance of the sea star; slow and dumb, but in fact, they are crafty and bright.
  • It is also based on the fact that real starfish don't have brains.
• Patrick has arachnophobia because in "Home Sweet Pineapple," when SpongeBob's house is gone, he keeps on having nightmares about spiders and hitting SpongeBob with his rock because he thought the latter was a spider.
  • This is seen again in the episode "Life Insurance" when Patrick smashes Squidward's hair, thinking it's a sea spider.
    • His phobia returns once more in "Patrick's Coupon."
• In "Chum Caverns" and "Free Samples," he is able to eat Plankton's chum perfectly fine, while normally, everyone gets poisoned or sick from the product.
  • He almost eats chum again (while sleepwalking) in "Don't Wake Patrick," however, SpongeBob prevents him to do so.
• Patrick owns a spatula named "Frank."
• Patrick is right-handed.
• Patrick's dreams are empty like his mind.
• Like an actual starfish, his weight is two ounces, and he is six centimeters long.
• Since Patrick's species is a starfish, he is also 1/16 amoeba because one of his ancestors is King Amoeba, which means his species is amoeba and he is also Patrick's great-great-grandfather and great-great-grandparents share 6.25% genetic overlap of a living thing. That's what makes him and Gary 1/16 amoeba.
• He has impersonated a doctor on at least two occasions: "Suds" and "The Splinter," both of which had disastrous results.
• From The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water onward, Patrick's voice has gotten deeper.

Reception

Critical reception for the character from both professionals and fans has been positive. In a review published in 2007, Peter Keepnews of the New York Times said, "Patrick is a popular character, and the new episodes illustrate why: He is unfailingly enthusiastic, touchingly loyal and absolutely undeterred by his intellectual limitations. Hilariously voiced by Bill Fagerbakke, he is not just an endearing comic creation but a role model for idiots everywhere." In the 2014 Kids' Choice Awards, Patrick was nominated under "Favorite animal sidekick." In the end, Patrick was the most voted and won. Patrick also has been ranked as #1 on the "Dumbest Animated TV Characters."
