Characters

Synopsis

At the Krusty Krab, the customers are all enjoying their Krabby Patties. One customer states he could die and go to heaven and kisses SpongeBob's feet, to SpongeBob's discomfort. Mr. Krabs tells Squidward that the customers love their Krabby Patties, to which Squidward tells him that some people are calling it the "SpongeBob Patty." Mr. Krabs calls that ridiculous, as it has always been the Krabby Patty, only for a customer to come up and order a "SpongeBob Patty." Squidward smugly tells Mr. Krabs that he should change the restaurant's name from the Krusty Krab to SpongeBob's Place.

One of the customers overhears him and states that it is a great idea. The other customers agree and they chant "SpongeBob's Place!" A jealous Mr. Krabs tries to get them to chant "Krusty Krab" but they ignore him. SpongeBob tries to give the chant some juice but this only makes the customers resume the chant of "SpongeBob's Place!" Squidward tells Mr. Krabs he'd be nothing without SpongeBob. Mr. Krabs asserts that it is not true, as he's the one who created the Krabby Patty, only for the customers to carry SpongeBob by on a throne, singing "Let's all go to SpongeBob's Place." This makes Mr. Krabs infuriated at SpongeBob's success.

Later, Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob that the Krusty Krab is haunted and needs ghost busting. SpongeBob agrees to stay away until the ghost busting is done. Squidward easily sees through Mr. Krabs' lie and quickly deduces the real reason for sending SpongeBob home, which Mr. Krabs confirms by announcing he's going to be doing the cooking from now on.

Meanwhile, at SpongeBob's house, SpongeBob quickly gets bored and decides to make Krabby Patties at home. People smell the patties and, after eating them, insist that he make more. Meanwhile, at the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs is having no such luck. The customers keep sending back their Krabby Patties. Squidward tells him it's because they aren't as good as they used to be to, which Mr. Krabs retorts that it's the same formula. One of the customers look inside the kitchen and afterwards announces to the other customers that SpongeBob's not in the kitchen. This announcement makes the other customers angry to the point where they decide to leave. To keep them from leaving, Mr. Krabs dresses up like SpongeBob and the customers actually fall for the paper-thin disguise.

Unfortunately, his food is still poorly made to the point where it tastes disgusting. However, the customers say they like it for SpongeBob's sake. Not realizing that they're not being sincere, Mr. Krabs reveals himself and states that it's his food that they're "enjoying." This angers the customers to the point where they drop the act and flat out tell him they found his food disgusting and once again try to leave.

Mr. Krabs tries to stop them by making a moat and filling it with molten lava, stating that anyone trying to leave will have to go through him. The customers use him as a drawbridge and leave. Squidward follows suit and Mr. Krabs gets burned by the lava.

When Squidward gets home, he finds a crowd eating Krabby Patties at SpongeBob's house, which has a sign that reads "SpongeBob's Place" on it. This angers Squidward, so he decides to call the health inspector. Meanwhile, in an ambulance, Mr. Krabs is having his burns tended to by paramedics. He gets out and looks around when he sees SpongeBob's home, which has been converted into a full-fledged restaurant called "SpongeBob's Place." This has made SpongeBob so rich he doesn't know what to do with all the money.

He gives Mr. Krabs a Krabby Patty and the taste makes Mr. Krabs realize why everyone prefers SpongeBob's Krabby Patties over his, despite the fact they use the same formula: SpongeBob's food is delicious because he prepares his Krabby Patties with tender-loving care and is in most ways an excellent cook while Mr. Krabs is in most ways a horrible cook and prepares his food with selfishness-induced carelessness to the point where his Krabby Patties were poorly prepared and disgusting. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob he deserves his own place, but SpongeBob tells him he needs a boss and Mr. Krabs happily obliges. Mr. Krabs takes 99% of the business and money while SpongeBob agrees to have 1%.

The next morning, Squidward walks into the empty, destructed Krusty Krab and starts to sing in happiness because no one will be there to bother him. However, the health inspectors shut SpongeBob's Place down for violations, so they go back to the Krusty Krab. Just as everyone arrives, they hear someone singing inside. Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob peek inside and see Squidward dancing and singing about how much he hates his job and people, Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob and the Bikini Bottomites. Mr. Krabs is outraged at Squidward's insults and gets very angry at him while the customers laugh. Squidward is punished off screen for what he has done.

Afterwards, Mr. Krabs gives SpongeBob a very special surprise: he decides to share the name with his restaurant by adding "SpongeBob's Place" on the Krusty Krab sign, much to SpongeBob's delight.

French title card

  • The French title of the episode is "Chez Bob l'éponge," which translates to "At SpongeBob SquarePants."
    • Since the French dub actually translates the title cards into French, the dubbers had to flip the title card upside-down so the words can fit in the glow effect.

Cultural references

  • The episode's title is a possible reference to the 90s soap opera Melrose Place.
  • "Let's all go to SpongeBob's Place" shares a similar tune to the nursery rhyme "Mary Had a Little Lamb."
  • When SpongeBob believes and remarks the Krusty Krab may need "ghost busting," it's a reference to the Ghostbusters franchise.
  • When SpongeBob is bored, a beach ball that resembles the Google Chrome logo is seen, except it has an extra color of orange.

Errors

  • When SpongeBob puts the Krusty Krab employee hat on Gary, goes into the kitchen and then comes back into the living room, Gary's hat disappears.
  • When Squidward enters the Krusty Krab, the hole on the roof previously made by Mr. Krabs is gone. Also, when SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs and the customers come to the Krusty Krab, the lava around the restaurant is gone.
  • Martin and the blue anchovy with the tan shirt are male, however, they have female voices in this episode.
