Template:OTab Template:Object The exploding pie is a food-like explosive that appears in the episode "Dying for Pie" and the arcade game Nicktoons Nitro.

Description

It looks just like a regular berry pie, with a golden brown crust and filling inside, but is actually a very powerful explosive that detonates when dropped or thrown. It will also explode in a few hours if eaten, killing whoever is unlucky enough to eat it.

Role in episode

"Dying for Pie"

It is Employee Brotherhood Day at the Krusty Krab, so Template:Data:Links buys a pie from a group of pirates for Template:Data:Links. However, the pirates inform him that they are actually bombs rather than pie. Squidward is left disappointed, saying that he was planning on buying one for someone. Wanting a quick buck, the pirates lied by telling him that they are not actually bombs, enticing him to buy one.

Once SpongeBob eats the pie, Squidward then realizes that it is actually a bomb and decides to make SpongeBob's last few hours of his life meaningful as can be as a result.

However, it is revealed that SpongeBob did not eat the pie and it was in his pocket the whole time for him and Squidward to share. Unfortunately, he trips and the pie lands on Squidward's face, causing it to blow up in a nuclear-like explosion, destroying Bikini Bottom in the process.

There is a Gizmo (gun-type weapon) called the Exploding Pie Launcher that launches exploding pies as projectiles.

Trivia

• Despite the destructive power of the pie, it is apparently only lethal when eaten, as Squidward, Template:Data:Links, and SpongeBob are barely fazed when it blows up near them.
