Characters[]

Synopsis[]

Plankton gets a hair sample from Mr. Krabs while he is showering. After Mr. Krabs uses Plankton while showering, he comes back to the Chum Bucket to combine one of the hairs with one of his antennae to create PlanKrab.

PlanKrab has already created a plan to steal the formula and ends up gaining control of the entire restaurant due to his hearty handshake. He uses this handshake on Plankton to trick him and kick him out of the restaurant.

After Mr. Krabs and Plankton see that the Chum Bucket and the Krusty Krab have been combined to become the Krusty Bucket, the two eavesdrop on the restaurant. They get sad after seeing how PlanKrab runs his restaurant, and the two decide to team up to get their restaurants back.

They try several attempts to defeat PlanKrab, but they fail. Eventually, they go to the restaurant to apply for manager. However, PlanKrab makes the two managers of the restrooms.

General[]

Episode references[]

Cultural references[]

  • Plankton hides inside a tube of Krust toothpaste, which is an allusion to the real-life toothpaste brand Crest.
  • Mr. Krabs' line "Well, here's another fine mess you've gotten us into!," references the Laurel and Hardy shorts, wherein Oliver Hardy would say the same phrase to Stan Laurel.

Errors[]

  • After Red PlanKrab and Green PlanKrab melt from doing the soothing handshake, both hands switch places in the next scene.
    • When PlanKrab is splitting up, both Red and Green PlanKrab have red hands. After successfully splitting, Red PlanKrab has green hands.
  • In the French dub, the opening credits are taken from its sister episode "Squid's on a Bus."[4]
  • When Administrator Flotsam says, "Hey, I'm trying to read!", his lip-syncing does not match his dialogue.
