Synopsis

File:10 & 1 Toilets 026.png

Tinkle's puppies.

It's a quiet day in the Star home, and Bunny is cleaning around the house, but Patrick really needs to go to the bathroom. That ends up going downhill when Tinkle refuses to cooperate and acts extremely aggressive. Tinkle runs away into a nearby shed, and the two stars go after him, with Patrick calling Dr. Plumber for assistance in seeing what's wrong. It turns out that Tinkle is a "toilet," and has 11 puppy toilets, with the stars gathering around in happiness.

The Stars slowly adapt to now having more company in their humble abode than usual, but it quickly becomes a pain, with them going as far as disrupting the show, and even ruining the Dr. Plankenstein and Pat-gor cutaway segments. The family is in complete disarray, and GrandPat wakes up to a complete mess downstairs. He tells his younger relatives that he's got to show the puppies who's boss, and he potty trains them with a 13-chapter book, turning them into quite the well-behaved fellows.

GrandPat kidnaps the puppies.

As the puppies peacefully watch a waterfall on the Star TV set, Squidina decides to take them for a walk, but the further she marches on, more puppies begin to disappear to the point where there are none left. Patrick and Squidina call Bunny for help, and they get Tinkle to find the pups using the scent of their toilet bowl cleaner. The Star family reaches a warehouse, and when they walk in, they find all sorts of suspicious materials: fashion sketches, a sewing machine, and plumbing manuals. The gang is suddenly trapped by a giant cage with GrandPat, who is using Tinkle's puppies to revive a fashion line he popularized years ago, despite it falling out of relevancy. Tinkle gets so angry at this that he uses his sharp teeth to claw out of the cage and chase GrandPat, with the puppies in pursuit. They rip off all of his high fashion and give him the "swirlie," putting an end to his buffoonery. After his family expresses their disappointment in him, GrandPat is left on stage, naked, as Lady Upturn and various incidentals he once worked with are now mocking him.

Patrick, Squidina, Cecil, Bunny, Tinkle, and the baby toilets are now back at home, when Cecil suddenly realizes that the TV is gone. The doorbell then rings, and it turns out that the television had TV puppies, leaving everyone with more company.

Production notes

Amy Lewis:

• Lewis said that "this show is such a treat to paint for! Its style still shouts 'world of SpongeBob' because of the same shape and design language but has its own unique edge by being painted in watercolour instead of gouache or acrylic like SpongeBob."

Trivia

General

File:NickVsNicktoons10&1T.png

Simulcasting. By the time Nick had started the episode, Nicktoons was already airing it.

• This episode's premiere, alongside the other three in its premiere week were simulcasted on Nicktoons. Due to Nicktoons' spacings of commercial breaks, the episode effectively debuted on that network first.

File:10 and 1 Toilets Credits.png

The word "and" is used in the credits.

• This episode was originally titled "10 and 1 Toilets." The on-screen credits use the original title.
• This is the second episode of the franchise where the title starts with a number. The first is "20,000 Patties Under the Sea."
  • This would make it the first episode of the franchise in alphabetical order if numbers and symbols were to come before "A."
• This episode was initially supposed to premiere on August 23, 2023 at 1:00pm, later 5:00pm, but was later pulled for unknown reasons.
  • On its new date, it was originally going to premiere at 5:00pm, but it was moved to 4:00pm.
• This episode was paired up with a rerun of "Now Museum, Now You Don't" during the original American airing.
• This is the first episode of The Patrick Star Show where "Fates" plays in.

Episode references

• When Tinkle is too angry for Patrick to use the bathroom, Patrick says that he will use the toilet at "the next gas station we visit." The Star family previously visited Gas Land in "Gas Station Vacation."

Cultural references

• This whole episode (from the title to the plot) is a parody of the 1961 animated film One Hundred and One Dalmatians.
  • GrandPat's role in the episode appears to parody Cruella de Vil's in the movie's. GrandPat uses the baby toilets' parts to create "high latrine fashion," just as Cruella uses the dalmatians' fur to create her own black-and-white spotted fashion brand.
