Template:LTab Template:Location The Bikini Bottom Jail, also known as the Bikini Bottom Prison, is a governmental institution in Bikini Bottom that first appears in the episode "Hall Monitor." Its main purpose is to confine criminals as they fill out their sentences.
About
Description
The building is two stories high, with an oversized ball-and-chain attached to it. The prison features a rock-crushing yard, a cafeteria, and the jail cell. The building is composed of metal and is sky-blue with a black roof, on top of which has a brown wooden sign hold together by two bamboo sticks that reads the jail's name in white text outlined by red.
The inmates do many activities, such as crushing rocks, lifting weights, and making wire coat hangers and license plates.
