'''"Best Day Ever"''' is a ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' episode from season four. It first aired on November 10, 2006 after a 24 hour marathon with the same title, along with ''[[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]]''. In February 1-2 2008, the Best Day Ever marathon will premiere on Nickelodeon in Australia.
'''Brief Summary:''' SpongeBob sacrifices his perfect day to help his friends.
SpongeBob starts the episode by waking up and singing the song "[[The Best Day Ever (song)|Best Day Ever]]," and he describes to Gary what he plans to do on this day: do his "perfect" job at the [[Krusty Krab]], practice [[karate]] with Sandy, go [[Jellyfishing (hobby)|jellyfishing]] with Patrick using his new high-tech net, and at the end of the day, attend Squidward's big clarinet recital. However, SpongeBob's "Best Day Ever" does not turn out as he plans. He goes to the Krusty Krab, only to find it condemned due to a severe nematode infestation. He then tells the nematodes to leave, but they eat his pants instead. SpongeBob begins playing the "Best Day Ever" song with his nose, causing the nematodes to follow him similar to The Pied Piper of Hamelin. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob to keep playing and lead them as far away as possible, and he does so until they all fall asleep (including SpongeBob).
:''Mr. Sun came up and he smiled at me,''
[[File:Best Day Ever 125.png|thumb|200px|"Ticket, please."]]
:''He said it's gonna be a good one just wait and see,''
He then goes to Sandy's Treedome for karate, but Sandy is busy trying to fix a leak in the roof of her Treedome. SpongeBob thinks that this is a trap, and attacks her anyway. Sandy hits him and sends him flying up to the roof, and his glove sticks to it, sealing the leak. Afterwards, SpongeBob heads over to [[Jellyfish Fields]] to go jellyfishing with Patrick, but Patrick explains that he has broken his net. SpongeBob gives him his old net to use, but he quickly breaks it as well. Finally, SpongeBob gives Patrick his brand-new net and sits there watching as Patrick has fun jellyfishing with it.
:'' 'Jumped out of bed, feeling so extra exctatified,''
:''It's the best day ever!''
:''It's the best day ever!''
Finally, when SpongeBob goes to Squidward's clarinet recital, Squidward tells him that he cannot play in the concert because his clarinet reed is shot. SpongeBob pulls out one of his teeth to replace the reed, and angrily demands Squidward to put on the show, frustrated that the majority of his "Best Day Ever" is ruined. When SpongeBob tries to enter the concert, the doorman will not let him in because he does not have a ticket. He tries various methods of sneaking in, but is caught every time. Eventually, the doorman realizes who SpongeBob is (Mrs. Puff said his name while hiding in her purse), and lets him in because he is on the VIP list. However, the concert ends just as SpongeBob gets into his seat, and then he finally loses it.
==Plot==
[[File:Best Day Ever 175.png|thumb|200px|♪My perfect job starts my perfect day. ♪]]
The episode starts out with the song, "Best Day Ever." Afterward, SpongeBob's "Best Day Ever" does not turn out as he planned when he has to postpone his activities to help his friends with their problems. He wanted to work at the Krusty Krab, have some karate with Sandy, go jellyfishing with Patrick using his new high-tech jellyfishing net, and then go to Squidward's clarinet recital. First he ran over to the Krusty Krab, only to find that it was condemned due to a severe nematode infestation. SpongeBob led them away by playing the flute on his nose, which caused them to become hypnotized and fall asleep, like the story of the Pied Piper. He then goes to Sandy's treedome for karate, but Sandy says that she is too busy with a leak in her dome that is letting water in. SpongeBob fixes it as he goes flying to the roof and his karate glove sticks to the crack. Afterwards, he heads over to Jellyfish Fields to go jellyfishing with Patrick, but Patrick broke his net, and then broke SpongeBob's old net. SpongeBob gives Patrick his brand-new net, and had nothing to [[Jellyfish]] with. SpongeBob meets up with Squidward, who says that he cannot play in the concert because his clarinet reed is shot. Angry because most of his day is ruined, SpongeBob pulls out one of his teeth to replace the reed. Finally, SpongeBob goes to Squidward's concert, but the doorman will not let him in without a ticket, which he does not have. He tries various methods of sneaking in such as a fake SpongeBob marionette as a distraction, and cutting through the ceiling, but at last he is let in because he is on the VIP list. However, he gets in right as the concert ends. He is very mad that everything went wrong and gives a long and elaborate speech about how his Best Day Ever got ruined. But then, his friends tell him about how SpongeBob helped them with their problems out of his kindness and teach him it's not about "perfect days", it's about having friends. But to make it up to him, they hold a production in which SpongeBob performs his song, "The Best Day Ever", to complete his ''real'' Best Day Ever with his friends by his side. After a few hours SpongeBob is still singing, but his friends are tired and sleepy.
Reaching his breaking point, SpongeBob goes up on stage, rips the curtains and starts furiously complaining to the audience about how his "Best Day Ever" was completely ruined. However, his friends go up and remind SpongeBob of how he helped them with their problems out of his kindness, and to make everything up to him, his friends hold a "very expensive" production in which SpongeBob has his ''real'' Best Day Ever with his friends by his side (while singing “Best Day Ever again”), and the audience love the show. After hours in the concert hall, SpongeBob is still singing, but his friends are tired and sleepy; as the audience seats are shown to be empty and the janitor is sweeping the floor, Squidward asks how long they have to keep this up, and Mr. Krabs replies with "Just 'til his little heart gives out, Squidward. Just 'til his little heart gives out."
