Trivia

  • Despite being called "The Chumbucket Rhumba," the track has never played in any scene focusing on Plankton, Karen, or the Chum Bucket.
    • It is, however, the title card music for the episodes "Chum Bucket Supreme" and "Plankton Gets the Boot," which are both Plankton-centric episodes.
    • This episode plays during scenes featuring Plankton in "Making Waves;" however, those scenes are focused primarily on Rube, with the track being used as his theme.
  • Between "Restraining SpongeBob" and "Plankton Gets the Boot," this track took five years to return.
    • Between "Plankton Gets the Boot" and "Making Waves," this track took over eight years and exactly 110 episodes later to return in the main series.
  • This is the last track to be only composed by Sage Guyton and Jeremy Wakefield. Starting with season 6, all of their later tracks have been composed with the direct involvement of Nicolas Carr.
