Plot
SpongeBob goes to boating school and then continues to crash into two cars, inflating Mrs. Puff every time he continues to crash into an obstacle. Mrs. Puff then inflates so much, she sends the car airborne. SpongeBob then crashes the car into the lighthouse, injuring Mrs. Puff. In the hospital, Doctor Forrest clarifies that Mrs. Puff's inflation sac was popped in the collision and she will not be able to "puff" again. Mrs. Puff has to be tranquilized after leaping on to SpongeBob and man-handling his nose. SpongeBob then begins to ramble and the doctor tranquilizes him as well. SpongeBob then visits Mrs. Puff with a bouquet of flowers along with the hundreds of other flowers he sent her, which she appears to be allergic to. After forcing her into a wheelchair, he pushes her down the hallway. Doctors are seen sprinting through the hallway with muscular men on the gurneys. SpongeBob stops Dr. Forrest and asked what was going on. He replies the Demolition Derby are about to battle in the hospital room. It appears that they are hitting each other with wheelchairs. Mrs. Puff imagines them smashing into SpongeBob and killing him. Her laughing attracts SpongeBob's attention, and she claims she has a way for him to earn "extra credit". After talking to Captain Lutefisk, she shows him how much damage SpongeBob and do with a boat, though he is just using a steering wheel. Lutefisk says he is perfect for the derby. At the derby, Mrs. Puff is enraged at how SpongeBob is defeating the competitors only by serendipity. She then grabs a tractor and starts chase after SpongeBob, trying to smoosh him. They then collide into the boating school, where Mrs. Puff regains her "puff", only for the school to smoosh the two.
Trivia
- This episode and Face Freeze! are part of the SpongeBob games special but aren't in Season 9
- This episode may be inspired by the boating game for Wii.
- When Mrs. Puff is tranquilized, she falls on the bed although she is a couple feet away.
- This is by far Mrs. Puff's darkest role in the series, as she had lost her mind because of her life-changing accident combined with years of putting up with SpongeBob.
- Mrs Puff returns to her original self at the end of the episode.
- This is the fifth episode with Classic Soap 14 with the others being The Lost Mattress, The Two Faces of Squidward, The Clash of Triton, and The Masterpiece.
- This is the first known time Mrs. Puff was tranquilized.
- Oddly the doctor also tranquilized Spongebob and said "Yes, everyone needs to relax".
- It seems the doctor was wrong when he said Mrs. Puff would never puff again.
- Thus is the second time Mrs. Puff deflates. The first was Pranks A Lot.
- Even though she does not like the name Mrs. Huff she uses it in her name in the Demolition Derby.
- This is the second episode to portray Mrs. Puff as a antagonist. The first being No Free Rides.
- If Demolition Doofus is followed by Face Freeze!, the SpongeBob intro was cut for obvious reasons.
- This episode reveals that Mrs. Puff is allergic to flowers. But in Krusty Love , Mr. Krabs gives the her same flowers, she didn't sneeze and she was happy, but in this episode, she says she's allergic and she sneezes. This could of happened after or before Krusty Love, or she would either be allergic to certain flowers, or she didn't take medication to prevent sneezing.
- Oddly, even though Captain Lutefisk introduced the 4 drivers and Spongebob, there was another, unknown driver that tried to crash Spongebob along with Blow Torch and Divin' Bell Dale. Those three also drove into another unknown fish that may be also competing in the derby.
- It turns out that the fish that the three drivers crashed into is the Lifeguard who made his first appearence in Ripped Pants.
- It is revealed that Squidward has a carrot patch near his house.
- Captain Lutefisk is a reference to the WWE wrestler Captain Lou.
- At the part were SpongeBob is pushing Mrs. Puff down the hall in Mrs. Puff's wheelchair, one of the picture looks similar to the logo used by Apple Inc., or by its nickname, Apple.
- This is the first 2nd episode in a pair to feature Classic Soap 14
