This article is a transcript of the SpongeBob SquarePants Citizens of the Reef short "Sea Food and Eat It," which aired on June 6, 2019.


  • [The opening scene of the short features SpongeBob grilling Krabby Patties in the Krusty Krab kitchen.]
  • Narrator: Food, the fuel that keeps us going.
  • [The Great Barrier Reef with its diverse array of fish is then shown in the next scene.]
  • Narrator: Down at the great barrier reef everyone is on the lookout for their next meal
  • [The scene then switches to Squidward in his house, where he places his food on a table with a wooden mannequin sitting.]
  • Squidward: (French Accent) Here you are, sir. Ze specialty of mah house. Roast salad à la Squidward.
  • [The following scene then cuts to Squidward as a plant in his backyard, which is later noticed by Patrick passing by.]
  • Narrator: However it's important to stay aware because the hunt for your next meal could see you end up as someone else's.
  • Patrick: [Gasps, goes over the fence and walks over to Squidward.]
  • [Patrick then tries to pull Squidward off the stem by grabbing him by the jaws. Squidward, though, is adhered to the stem entirely.
  • [After that, the scene cuts to various fish swimming in the ocean.]
  • Narrator: Life on the reef is all about food, each living thing here consumes chow in its own unique way, the driving force behind most of what goes on around here.
  • Narrator: And when it comes to food there's no better place to start than the bottom of the food chain the humble plankton.
  • [The next scene takes place at the Krusty Krab, where a bunch of Krabby Patties are on a table outside.]
  • [Then Plankton emerges from the Krabby Patties.]
  • [The next scene switches to actual plankton swimming in the ocean, along with a glimpse of various other fish species.]
  • Narrator: When it comes to life under the sea often the best defense is generally to swim away from the thing trying to eat you, alas tiny plankton are unable to swim against the strong currents therefore end up being an easy target for many.
  • [The scene that follows shows plankton in the chum bucket.]
  • Plankton: (screams) NOOOO!!!!
  • [After that, the scene cuts to various fish swimming in the ocean again.]
  • Narrator: A crucial food source for many species these tiny organisms play a big role at the buffet of the reef. For some speed isn't such a big deal, the stone fish, no wait that's just a rock, there he is, no that's just a rock to, ahh there.
  • [The following scene cuts to a stone fish sitting on the seafloor.]
  • Narrator: The stone fish is a more patient customer in the restaurant of the reef opting to sit and wait quietly for the food to come to him instead of chasing it down. Don't be fooled by his relaxed hunting method this disguised fish can really move when it needs to.
  • [The scene then shows the stonefish again and how It eats its prey.]
  • Narrator: Whoa, I bet you didn't see that coming.
  • [The following scene changes to SpongeBob and Patrick outside SpongeBob's house. SpongeBob has a Krabby Patty that has a bite eaten out of It. Patrick then pulls his lips forward and swallows the Krabby Patty whole.]
  • [The next scene shows McNulty and Patrick competing in a Krabby Patty eating competition at the Krusty Krab. They are both trying to cram one more patty into their mouths, but they are having trouble.]
  • Narrator: It seems like the saying eyes bigger than your belly really may apply to the harlequin shrimp.
  • [The following scene cuts to the harlequin shrimp on the sea floor moving about.]
  • Narrator: This tiny little shrimp likes its food fresh and i mean really fresh, their food of choice, starfish.
  • [The following scene changes to SpongeBob and Patrick outside SpongeBob's house. Patrick then begins to attempt to hold his tears In, therefore he needs to make a goofy expression to do so.]
  • [The next scene depicts the harlequin shrimp devouring a starfish, as well as how it accomplishes It ]
  • Narrator: Using its claws to pierce through the tough skin of the starfish who was often three times bigger than the harlequin shrimp and if being eaten wasn't bad enough the harlequin not being able to finish the starfish will just nibble at it bit by bit for sometimes weeks at a time.
  • [The next scene shows Patrick again outside SpongeBob's house.]
  • Patrick: [starts bawling]
  • [The next scene takes place at Poseidon Elementary School, where students are having lunch on the playground. One clam consumes a little boy's lunch, apple, and banana. Another clam eats another small boy's meal but raises him up.]
  • Narrator: Life on the reef is like floating inside a giant lunchbox where the sandwiches could at any time turn around and eat you, [Then scene cuts to a bunch of fish that have already been shown before in the Short] from the plankton to the fish that eats it and the fish that eats those fish and so on the cycle of nourishment in the ocean is a competitive one.
  • [The following scene shows Patrick biting into a Krabby Patty zombified hipster fish. The zombie hipster fish moans and flees.]
  • Narrator: and if that wasn't enough there are increasingly added [The next scene shows a variety of fish swimming in the ocean.] threats to the creatures of the wreath that are more than just being someone's snack. [The scene that follows shows some rubbish floating in the ocean.] Extreme changes in temperature, [Next scene shows rubbish floating In the ocean, part of It drifting down to the town bikini bottom.] poor water quality, and pollution has meant that [The following scene switches to a bunch of rubbish, and SpongeBob emerges climbing up It.] many of those that once lived there no longer can.
  • SpongeBob: [With a loud voice] Hello [SpongeBob's voice echo's]
  • [The following scene shows SpongeBob, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs cleaning up rubbish on the ground. SpongeBob then throws the debris they collect into a garbage truck.]
  • Narrator: But the good news is we can do our bit to actively help make real change happen.
