— Customer, "Pizza Delivery"
|
The customer is a minor character who first appears in the episode "Pizza Delivery."
Description
He is a dark orange fish with orange fins and tan lips. He wears a purple shirt and bright teal shorts. He has big green round eyes at the top of his head with bags under them. His feet are long and rounded. He also has belly hair.
Role in series
The customer has made only three appearances in the series so far with both of them being notable appearances. He has been absent from the series for 18 years ever since his debut appearance (not counting his color palette being used for Scooter in "Friend or Foe"), but he made a comeback in the season 12 episode, "Senior Discount." He makes his biggest role yet in his debut "Pizza Delivery" as the customer who ordered the Krusty Krab Pizza. He is also known to be the inspiration of Incidental 6's design.[1][2]
Roles
"Pizza Delivery" / Naughty Nautical Neighbors (Chinese comic) / Krusty Krab Adventures/"Pizza Delivery: Puppet Edition!"
Template:Data:Links arrives at his house, and when the customer gets the pizza, he gets angry at SpongeBob for not bringing his drink, a Diet Dr. Kelp in particular. Although SpongeBob tries to tell the customer that he did not order one, he refuses to listen and berates SpongeBob. He also refuses to pay for the pizza and slams the door in SpongeBob's face. This act was so cruel and hateful that it made Template:Data:Links truly feel sorry for SpongeBob (even though he hates him). He later receives his comeuppance after Squidward violently slams the pizza box into his face.
"Friend or Foe"
His color palette is briefly used for Scooter in the crowd of customers listening to Template:Data:Links' story after he tells the part where Template:Data:Links gets lifted into the air by a balloon.
"Senior Discount"
He appears as a customer at the Krusty Krab sitting at a table with Steve with an order of kelp fries. He and Steve try to eat their food while Mr. Krabs plays loud rock music at the Krusty Krab.

His dorsal fin is smaller and some of his colors are changed due to the Game Boy Color's limitations.
