Plot

SpongeBob sees that Squidward is actually smiling one day, so he and Patrick decide to spy on him and see why. That night, Squidward goes into a strange lodge, in which SpongeBob and Patrick intrude into to. Squidward puts on a costume, and hangs out with the other members of Cephalopod Lodge. When SpongeBob and Patrick decide to join in the festivities, Squidward is held accountable for this and is kicked out for life. SpongeBob and Patrick then start their own club, much to the annoyance of Squidward, who begs that he wants to be let back into Cephalopod Lodge. SpongeBob and Patrick want to help, so they dress up as a sock monster so they can scare the members while Squidward "saves" them. Their plan works, and Squidward is let back in. But when SpongeBob and Patrick take off the sock and reveal themselves, Squidward is again kicked out. SpongeBob and Patrick decide to go back to the "their lodge" idea, but first they need to do the initiation on Squidward, which is putting a jellyfish on your tongue and letting it sting you.

Trivia/Goofs

The second time SpongeBob makes a lodge, first was Good Neighbors
Squidward went to the lodge in Funny Pants because he was wearing a fez.
This episode is a reference to "The Simpsons" episode "Homer the Great"
It is mentioned that Squidward is in this mood only on the third Wednesday of each month. He is never shown happy on most episodes before, telling that almost none of the previous episodes fall on the third Wednesday of any month.
Even though Squidward is usually naked (having a shirt on and no pants) he is shown with underwear, he doesn't wear underwear anyway.
Another cephalopod, Squilliam Fancyson, isn't at the lodge
SpongeBob and Patrick somehow got the Feather Friends costume into a lodge delivery box, yet they never took one from the lodge.
This is the third time it showed more than one of Squidward's kind, the first was in Squidville, and the second was in Ditchin'.
No females appear at the lodge.
When he entered the lodge, Squidward said, "This almost makes the other 353 days worth it." This could mean either that the Underwater Pacific Ocean has 354 days every year (besides leap years) or that initiation exams happen twice a year.
Many cephalopods appear at the lodge with a couple of duplicates, such as one green one that gets spotted many times.
