History
Nat works at Snail-Po Headquarters and a variety of other places. He was also a member of the Bikini Bottom Music Lovers Club. His last name is revealed in the episode "Missing Identity" when Norma Rechid addresses him by the surname "Peterson."
He is friends with Fred, Harold, and DoodlePants (as seen in Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition). He tells DoodlePants helpful advice on how to defeat DoodleBob.
He seems to be with Martha Smith in various episodes, although Shubie may also be his girlfriend/wife, as seen in the episode "SpongeHenge."
Role in series
In "Fools in April," he is amused by SpongeBob's prank.
In the episode "Artist Unknown," when Squidward welcomes him to art class, he says "Oh, isn't this cooking?" He also says that he is a better artist than Squidward.
In "Just One Bite," he is seen as the wedding announcer.
In "Idiot Box," he is seen on a soap opera, giving a box as a gift.
In "One Krabs Trash," Nat at one point offers Mr. Krabs $100,000 for the Soda Drinking Hat.
In "Squilliam Returns," he is seen hanging out with Squidward's arch rival from high school, Squilliam Fancyson, suggesting that he is wealthy.
He is seen baking a cake in the episode "Mrs. Puff, You're Fired." He is also a bus driver in the episodes "Rock Bottom," "Hocus Pocus," "The Pink Purloiner," "Roller Cowards," "A Flea in Her Dome," and "Nautical Novice." He has a strict no-singing policy.
In "The Great Snail Race," he sneaks into the announcer's box, only to be caught by Perch Perkins.
Nat is also seen as a cotton candy salesman in "Sing a Song of Patrick."
In "The Battle of Bikini Bottom," he is one of the citizens who reenacted the Battle of Bikini Bottom.
In "Suction Cup Symphony," he is shown to be the drummer of the Bikini Bottom Symphony Orchestra.
In "The Splinter," Squidward pretends to "squish" him.
In "Slide Whistle Stooges," he is seen being stitched by the Purple Doctorfish.
In "Plankton's Regular," his most notable appearance, he feigns enjoyment of Plankton's chum in order to fulfill a deal with Karen, Plankton's wife. He is shown to live in a mobile home and apparently possesses great acting skills, as he manages to fend off SpongeBob's persistent attempts to give him a Krabby Patty. However, one can foresee the ending when Nat is forced to taste Mr. Krabs' Krusty Chum and he proclaims that it is the second foulest thing he has ever tasted. The audience can infer that the foulest thing is actually Plankton's chum, and Mr. Krabs has thwarted him in that area of food service as well.
At the end of the episode, Nat breaks the news to Plankton and cuts off the deal with Karen, returning the money that she had given him to eat at the Chum Bucket. He is last shown being carted off by medical staff members, which he claims will be the third time he will have visited the doctor on account of Plankton's chum.
In the episode "Squid Baby," he yells, My face! My face! Also my leg, but mostly my face!," making a reference to Fred's catchphrase "My leg!"
