Synopsis

One day, Squidward was playing his clarinet but was disturbed by a doorbell which is a doctor who arrived at his house after mistaking his clarinet playing for a "dying animal." He then receives a call from his former high school classmate and rival Squilliam Fancyson, who informs Squidward that he is the leader of a band that is supposed to play the prestigious Bubble Bowl the following week, but is unable to attend. He gives Squidward a backhanded offer to replace him, correctly suspecting that Squidward does not have his own band. However, Squidward defiantly insists that he does have a band and accepts the offer, before posting flyers around Bikini Bottom looking for people to join his band.

"Is mayonnaise an instrument?"

On the first night of rehearsals, Squidward brings his rented instruments to a practice hall filled with townspeople. Upon discovering that none of his prospective bandmates have any previous musical experience, Squidward teaches them the basics. Unfortunately, the night doesn't end well as Squidward gets pinned to the wall by drumsticks the players mistook as mouth instruments while Sandy beats up Patrick and shoves his body through the bore of a trombone after he kicks her leg.

Things do not get any better during the second day of training; while practicing a march through the street, two flag twirlers are killed when they spin their flags too fast, causing them to fly into the air and crash into a passing blimp. On the third day, Squidward checks on Plankton's harmonica solo, though he becomes exhausted and collapses from running back and forth between the holes since the harmonica is much bigger than him.

On the fourth and final day of practice, Squidward says that while none of them have made any improvement since the beginning, he suggests that everyone play loud so they will be good. Unfortunately, they take this theory a bit too literally as they play so loud and badly that the windows of the practice hall break and Squidward's face is deformed beyond recognition, prompting him to change the plan to playing extremely quietly so nobody will hear them. The band members then begin to insult each other, and despite Squidward attempting to quell the rising tensions, a mass brawl breaks out that damages most of the instruments. When the clock hits 10:00 PM, the fighting ends and everyone starts to head home.

Squidward stops them at the entrance and expresses his disappointment at their lack of progress and for not taking his dream seriously. After Squidward leaves in distress at his failure, a remorseful SpongeBob scolds the townspeople and asks them to think about all of the times Squidward came through for them. Despite drawing a blank, they are convinced enough to give practice one more try for Squidward's sake, with SpongeBob as the conductor.

At the day of the performance, Squidward prepares to finalize his band's cancellation, only to find Squilliam waiting for him at the entrance of the Bubble Bowl, wanting to watch him fail. Squidward tries to explain that his band can no longer play as they all died in a marching accident, but they suddenly appear behind him in full uniform with their instruments ready, forcing Squidward to go through with the performance.

The band performing "Sweet Victory."

As everyone enters a huge glass dome, Squidward bemoans the humiliation that he is certain is awaiting him. The dome rises into a football stadium filled with human fans. Squidward, still fearing that the performance will be a disaster, nervously begins conducting. But to his and Squilliam's astonishment, the band performs "Sweet Victory" and it turns out to be a tremendous success. As the crowd sways in awe, Squilliam faints in shock and is carried away on a stretcher. Squidward throws away his baton and leaps into the air in triumph.

A reference to "Band Geeks" can be seen.

• The episode has been referenced in other SpongeBob SquarePants media.
  • The band uniforms are playable costumes in The Cosmic Shake and The Patrick Star Game.
  • This also happens in "SpongeBob on Parade" when Pearl and others wear the Band Geeks uniform in the parade.
  • The episode was also referenced in the UK SpongeBob SquarePants 2021 Happy Meal toys.
  • Squidward was shown looking though his closet to show his outfit in "Chatterbox Gary."

Dub facts

• In some foreign dubs of this episode, Fred can be heard screaming "My Leg" after he collides with the airship together with Incidental 106, indicating that he and Incidental 106 survived the airship's explosion.
• In the Latin American dub, Squidward talks about the part about kicking he says, "No SpongeBob, you think this is karate." "No Bob, ¿Crees que esto es Karate?"
  • In the same dub, while asking the drumline to repeat the line from his clarinet, instead of saying he says "Percussion," which is a far less common denomination of the instrument.
  • "Sweet Victory" is not dubbed and is in English.
• In the Japanese dub of this episode, the French Narrator and the announcer in the stadium are unheard.

File:Italian censor of Band Geeks (!!!!!)

• In the Persian and Italian dubs of this episode, "Sweet Victory" is cut (shortened in the PSiM Persian dub) due to unknown reasons. For Italian, likely due to commercial constraints, as the dub was commissioned for a commercial broadcaster (Italia 1), for Persian, likely as "music is haram" in Islam.
  • This also applied to the Indonesian version (on later airings only) as the song would cut like any other dubbed episodes with original music to save more time for other episodes to play. This lasted until April 2021, when the full episode played in normal, later reverting to cut episodes.
• In the German dub, the word sedan is replaced with "Opel Kapitän," a German luxury sedan manufactured between 1938 and 1970.

File:Spongebob Squarepants M&E Error In Romanian Dub

• In the Romanian dub, Sandy's and Larry the Lobster's lines are muted, but this is likely because the Romanian TV station forgot to update the Sandy Cheeks and Larry the Lobster's lines.
• When Patrick opens his mouth while talking with a trombone noise from being stuck in a trombone, the slider goes downwards from a higher-pitched noise to a lower-pitched noise. Correctly, the slider should have been sliding upwards.
• After class is over on the way towards the door, the door flies open, revealing Squidward with his arms to his side, as if he had not touched the door.
• The Turkish dub has the following cut scenes and errors:
  • The title card was mistakenly left in English undubbed.
  • When Sandy, Plankton, and Mrs. Puff start reading from a poster, Mr. Krabs' and Larry's scenes of reading the poster are cut.
  • In the scene when Squidward is supposed to say, "Wait, wait. I know tensions are high...," he cannot be heard saying that line in this dub. Instead, he is left mute at that part; all that can be heard are the crowd's voices overlapping.
• In the Indonesian dub that aired on Global TV as well as Nickelodeon Asia (Indonesia), instead of saying "Is mayonnaise an instrument?," Patrick says "Is mine an instrument?" and instead of "Horseradish is not an instrument, either," Squidward says "Horse racing is not an instrument, either." However, when the episode was aired in Latvian, the error didn't happen.
• A shot of SpongeBob and Patrick playing at the Bubble Bowl can be seen on SpongeBob's memory book during the time-travel special, "SpongeBob and Patrick's Timeline Twist-Up".

Cultural references

• The Bubble Bowl is a parody of the Super Bowl, the annual final championship game of the National Football League.
• The painting seen hanging in Squilliam's house resembles the style of Spanish painter Joan Miró.
• The scene where the two flag twirlers end up flying into a blimp and causing it to explode and crash is a reference to the Hindenburg disaster of 1937 when a German zeppelin (similar to a blimp) filled with flammable hydrogen gas exploded and crashed while attempting to land in New Jersey, killing 36 people.

Errors

File:2000Copyright.png

Listed "2000" in the end credits.

• This episode along with its sister episode are incorrectly listed with a 2000 copyright date in the end credits.
  • This also happens in the next episode "Graveyard Shift"/"Krusty Love."
• Part of Pearl's skirt is gone when SpongeBob talks to Evelyn and Larry but reappears in the next scene, and then disappears again.
• During the band's performance of "Sweet Victory" when the main cast is shown, Mr. Krabs is playing a purple keytar, but during the panning the keytar is green.
• During the full band scene, all of the main cast moves up/down rows in some way, but Mr. Krabs does not move at all.
• When everyone is talking to each other when Squidward enters the practice hall, Incidental 11's mouth doesn't move.
• The characters switch places throughout this episode, examples include:
  • When everyone in the room is talking, SpongeBob and Patrick are sitting next to each other. However, when Patrick asks if mayonnaise is an instrument and when he says "Kicking? I want to do some kicking!" he is sitting next to Sandy.
    • Then, after getting beaten by Sandy, Patrick returns to a third seat.

File:Trianglerror.png

The missing bottom of Plankton's triangle

• When Plankton asks whether instruments of torture count as musical instruments, the bottom side of the triangle he is holding disappears for a frame.
• Throughout the scenes of the rehearsals, the characters constantly change instruments, including the drummer's drums to change between shots.
• During multiple scenes in which the screen shakes, when televised, it is surrounded by either a brown or blue border. This error also occurs in "Welcome to the Chum Bucket" and "The Secret Box."
• When Squidward says that he really expected better of them, Evelyn's skin is green instead of pink.
• Patrick's trombone has valves on it, a feature uniquely absent from trombones in real life.
  • Patrick's trombone could be a valve trombone.
• When Squidward says "That's his eager face," his mouth is somewhat out of sync with the animation.
• When "Spongemonger" plays, it cuts off after the beginning.

File:Band Geeks 117.png

Big Mrs. Puff.

• When Mrs. Puff slams Mrs. Krabs and Incidental 40 with her cymbals, she is bigger than normal; being almost twice her normal size.
• When Plankton plays his work-in-progress harmonica solo, he is so small that he has to run back and forth along the harmonica to get to the right areas, which exhausts him. But in the later scene where he shouts "Correct!" in response to Squidward's theory, he's as tall as Sandy's boot.
• When Squidward asks Plankton how the harmonica solo is going, the harmonica is not on the chair. A second later, it is on the chair.
  • The harmonica could have been on a different chair.
• The saxophone is a woodwind instrument, but when Squidward tells the brass section to play, Incidental 40 can be seen playing the saxophone.
  • The saxophone can sometimes be grouped with brass instruments when playing in sections.
• It is unknown how Sandy is able to play the saxophone when in her suit, due to her requiring it to breathe underwater.
• When Squidward tells the woodwind section to play, one of the players is playing a brass instrument.
• When it is day four, all the seats are missing.
  • This could be because it's the last day of practice so they removed the seats.
• In the shot where Mr. Krabs asks, "When do we get the free food?" Sandy is sitting next to him. Two seats behind Mr. Krabs is Incidental 105. Part of him is shown, but the part that should be shown in Sandy's helmet is not there. It is not a trick with lighting because the part of Fred, who is sitting behind Mr. Krabs, that is in Sandy's helmet is shown.

File:Band Geeks 039.png

• When the band is shown turning from above, Pearl's nose is unreasonably big and covers several people.

File:Blue teeth error in Band Geeks.png

Bluish teeth error.

• When the flag twirlers are exploding, Squidward's teeth turn bluish-gray/the color of his body skin, and his side of his mouth that is usually red is transparent, for a second.
• During the scene where SpongeBob and Plankton harmonize in singing, SpongeBob's eyelid turns blue for a second.

File:Band Geeks 129.png

Pearl without the "P" on her shirt, and Evelyn's green skin

• When the glass dome containing the band originally rises to the field, it is seen to be approximately 10 yards in diameter and positioned just off of the center of the field. Later shots from within the dome looking outward show an entirely different perspective with many more white lines than would be expected.
• In some scenes, while practicing, the "P" on Pearl's dress is missing.
