The '''drifter''' is a sponge who appears in the episode "[[No Weenies Allowed]]" and all versions of ''[[Battle for Bikini Bottom: Rehydrated]]''. He drifts along towns, finding tough clubs, based by his name.

==Description==
The drifter looks almost exactly like {{Link|SpongeBob}}, only he has thick, glossy, black hair like of the late musician {{W|Elvis Presley}}, or Danny Zuko from the 1978 movie musical ''{{W|Grease (film)|Grease}}''.

===Personality===
He claims to be tough, although [[Reg]] never tells him to prove it before letting him enter [[The Salty Spitoon]].

==Role in series==
==="No Weenies Allowed"===
When the drifter asks to enter The Salty Spitoon, Reg thinks he is SpongeBob wearing a wig and tries to pull the drifter's hair off, but it's revealed to be real. The drifter hardly moves, and he doesn't feel any pain when he pulls it, which shows Reg that he's pretty tough. When the real SpongeBob appears wearing a rainbow wig, Reg apologetically fixes the drifter's hair and lets him in.

==Role in games==
===''Battle for Bikini Bottom: Rehydrated''===
He is seen in a picture framed in SpongeBob's bedroom.

==Trivia==
*The gag of somebody resembling SpongeBob being assaulted due to being mistaken for SpongeBob is used again in "[[The Slumber Party]]" with [[Girly Teengirl]].
**However, the former was actually able to make it into The Salty Spitoon, while the latter was shooed away by {{Link|Pearl}} and her friends.

*Despite him appearing in the promotional art drawn for the premiere of the [[season 13]] episode "[[Salty Sponge]]," he is actually not seen nor mentioned in that said episode.
