Plot

During an Intense day at work a customer ordered a monster krabby patty and Spongebob felt shocked. As a result, Spat is hurt and SpongeBob starts wailing like crazy. With his favorite kitchen implement out of commission, SpongeBob searches for a temporary replacement(even though he thought no spatula could replace Spat). SpongeBob finds “Le Spatula,” the latest in state-of-the-art cooking tool. The sleek and modern Le Spatula dazzles SpongeBob so completely that he will do anything to own one. But will this fancy gadget fill the void that was left by his old trusty spatula? After selling everything, SpongeBob attains Le Spatula from the man from the store. He shows it off to Mr. Krabs, and, later, before it flips a patty, Le Spatula refuses. It says it is disgusting, and he and Spongebob aren't friends at all. Le Spatula suddenly grows robotic legs and runs off. Mr. Krabs confronts SpongeBob, and SpongeBob runs off to the hospital, where old Spat lays. The spatula suddenly runs out of life as SpongeBob watches, and SpongeBob cries in agony. Then a doctor appears, and, after some conversation, tells him that's not his spatula. Spat is in the infirmary. SpongeBob runs over to Spat, but Spat turns away from SpongeBob. SpongeBob cries he's sorry for buying Le Spatula, claiming it was his moment of weakness. SpongeBob rolls in a fit of tears as he goes back to the Krusty Krab. SpongeBob cries in the kitchen, but suddenly, he hears patties flipping. SpongeBob cries in joy. Apparently, Spat forgave him. Suddenly, another Monster Krabby Patty is ordered, and SpongeBob turns to Spat. The two try to hopefully succeed in flipping it. Suddenly, SpongeBob's arms break off. SpongeBob ends up laughing, and the episode is over.

Trivia

• This is the second time SpongeBob's spatula breaks, the first was My Pretty Seahorse, and the third time was Stanley S. SquarePants.
• This episode was originally called "Obsession", but it was later changed to All That Glitters.
• This is the second episode where SpongeBob doesn't mind his nudity because of public nudity being legal in Bikini Bottom. The first was Hooky.
• The bathroom stalls have slanted tops, unlike in some other episodes.
• Le Spatula is a parody of HAL 9000 from the film 2001: Space Odyssey, where first, HAL and Le Spatula first seem to be live-machines, but soon, HAL and Le Spatula go onto their own plans, revealing to be villainous machines and later refuse orders from their commanders.
• Le Spatula speaks with a French accent, hence the name.
• This episode re-aired with Squidtastic Voyage.
• All That Glitters is one of the several episodes where Mr.Krabs is more generous than greedy.
• "All That Glitters Is Not Gold" means that there are far more beloved things than riches if you learn to appreciate them, which is the moral of this episode.
• The Monster Krabby Patty is a possible spoof of McDonald's short lived Hero Burger back in the 90's.
• The fish that sells Le Spatula is voiced by Tom Kenny, who voices SpongeBob.
• All that Glitters is also the name of a Ben 10, Dragon Tales, and Pokemon episode.
• When Spongebob goes back to the hospital near the end of the episode, where the 2nd spatula (not Spat) is, the heart monitor still runs for a few seconds, when the cords aren't even hooked up to the spatula! However, it flatlines a few seconds later, indicating that the 2nd spatula may have had no chance at life, so they unhooked the cords from him moments before to let him die.
• Le Spatula only cooks fancy foods, which is strange as spatulas only make simple foods.

Errors

• None
