Patrick then exclaims that he's hungry, and SpongeBob suggests the [[Krusty Krab]], but Incidental 171's balloon blocks their view, so Patrick suggests the [[Chum Bucket]], as they're always advertising on his show.

Patrick's bucket list.

Mistakenly believing that Patrick has eaten poisoned chum, SpongeBob wants to take him to the doctor. That turns out to be the last item on Patrick's bucket list, and he has a list of things he dreamed about doing first. After checking off the first four items, which he had accomplished earlier in the day, he goes with SpongeBob to fight a robot. Sandy's robot effortlessly beats Patrick. He spits out his bucket, and after deliriously completing his "struggle to make sense" task, moves onto the next one: scaling the tallest building in Bikini Bottom.

SpongeBob climbs the building with plungers as Patrick gets dragged behind. When Patrick stops in the building to buy one of Plankton's chum dogs, the rope stretches and sends Patrick smashing into SpongeBob, landing them both on top of the building. SpongeBob plants the flag, only for Patrick to notice a slightly taller building next to them. SpongeBob screams in exasperation, the sheer volume pushing the building into the neighboring Seaweed City.

Patrick tells his audience that he is nearing death.

Patrick accomplishes his next few tasks: winning a gold medal by stealing one from an awards ceremony, singing on Broadway and getting squashed in the process, seeing a sunset by watching a billboard in front of a toxic waste dump, and skydiving. After they survive, Patrick's last goal before the doctor is to give the performance of a lifetime on his show. He sets up a giant obstacle course and rides it down. Afterwards, Patrick dramatically shares the news to the audience that he is about to die.

Squidina suddenly notices that Patrick has something stuck in his teeth. She picks it out, and it turns out to be the entirety of the chum he ate earlier that day, which splatters all over town. While enthusiastic at the news, Patrick suddenly realizes he is hungry and eats another bucket of chum, poisoning him. SpongeBob takes him to the doctor, where it is revealed that while the Plankton did not poison the chum, it contains dangerous bacteria anyways.

Trivia

General

  • This episode was originally titled "The Chum Bucket List," and it's working title was "PatrickShowCHUMBUCKETLIST."[1]
  • This episode's title is a pun on the phrase "the bucket list," which is term that refers to a list of things where someone tries to make achievements in their life.
    • Ironically, Plankton hasn't made any sort of real achievements at the Chum Bucket (as least at this point in the series.)
    • The "chum" in the title may be referring to SpongeBob and Patrick as the 'chums' themselves, since the official synopsis seems to not mention the Chum Bucket as a pivotal plot point.

Episode references

  • When Patrick says that Plankton is always advertising on his show, it references the events of the episode "The Patrick Show Sells Out."
  • Patrick's ballerina outfit from "Mid-Season Finale" reappears when he accidentally changes into it before fighting the robots.
