Characters

Synopsis

The episode begins as Squidward happily hums to himself while gleefully tossing out newspapers to his customers. Everybody seems to love the cephalopod, with even a neighborhood guard worm approaching him and surprisingly acting extremely friendly. All seems to be well, until he encounters Cecil Star, who snatches a paper without paying money and trips him up so much to the point where his limbs fall apart.
