Characters

Synopsis

The episode begins at the Star house, where Patrick spins a wheel to decide what the episode will be about. It lands on "Eel Hats," so he puts an electric eel on his head, which shocks him and jumps away. Dissatisfied, Patrick spins the wheel again, which detaches and rolls into the wall. Squidina comes in, and Patrick tells her that he does not know what to do a show about. However, he hears an ice cream truck and runs after it.

The ice cream truck's waiter, Walter, is horrified by Patrick approaching. He has a flashback of them as children, in which Walter offered Patrick some of his ice cream, making Patrick so obsessed with the taste that he hijacked the truck and crashed it into Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat. Before Patrick can arrive, Walter slams the shutters closed and drives off. Squidina tells Patrick that they can now start the show, but Patrick childishly refuses until he gets some ice cream.

Attempting to continue the show, Squidina hooks a still-uncooperative Patrick up to a series of ropes and records him. She declares the topic of the show to be "enemies," describing that Patrick is sometimes her own enemy, and then rolls in a pre-recorded segment about nature. In the segment, Ouchie and a sea bunny named Pinkeye repeatedly fight over Ouchie's food, escalating in a high-speed chase through space. Afterwards, Squidina checks in on Patrick, who is making his own cardboard rocket similar to the ones that Ouchie and Pinkeye used.

Bunny fights her defective toaster.

Squidina goes inside the house to interview Bunny, who says that she does not have any enemies. However, she struggles with an uncooperative toaster that spits out all the bread she tries to put inside. After fighting with the toaster, she smashes it with a rolling pin in frustration. Finally, Bunny realizes that she forgot to plug the toaster in; once she does, it works properly. Squidina is disappointed by Bunny's destructive actions. Meanwhile, Patrick uses his rocket to chase after Walter's truck.

Squidina then asks GrandPat about his enemies; he explains that his only enemy is time, and he gets satisfaction from smashing clocks. After Squidina and GrandPat destroy a bunch of clocks, Patrick crashes in on his rocket, and tells GrandPat that Walter refuses to give him ice cream. GrandPat tells Patrick about the days of ice cream prohibition, in which he had to go to "sweet-easies" to get any ice cream after it was banned. However, he was caught and sent to jail, and forced to eat nothing but prunes. GrandPat saying that he "had to know someone" to get ice cream inspires Patrick to use Squidina; however, GrandPat was referring to himself, as he had some ice cream hidden in one of the clocks.

Patrick steals Walter's truck.

When the ice cream truck arrives again, Patrick hides in a bush and has Squidina order for him. Walter takes out two chocolate desserts, and Patrick is unable to control himself, jumping into the ice cream truck and eating all its contents, then driving it down the street. Walter chases after him, as Bunny chases the toaster, GrandPat runs away from Father Time himself, and Ouchie flies after Pinkeye. Eating a popsicle left behind, Squidina says goodbye to the viewers, but is unable to describe what the episode was about.

Trivia

General

File:Enemies à la Mode 002.png
The general/regular version.
File:Enemiesalamode-itunesversion.png
The iTunes version using the SpongeBob font.
  • Much like the episode's sister segment, "Stair Wars," the iTunes version of this episode also uses the regular SpongeBob font instead of the font used regularly on The Patrick Star Show's credits.
  • The segments on the Segment Wheel are:
    • Broccoli
    • Monster Wrassle
    • Rock Out!
    • Eel Hats
    • Bug Your Sister
    • Unknown segment
    • Ice Cream (The one Patrick chose. According to Squidina, he had picked it before on another episode)
    • Toilet Paper
  • The "o" in "Mode" has a bowl of ice cream. This references the fact that Patrick wants ice cream before doing his show.
  • SpongeBob's alarm clock can be seen when Squidina and GrandPat are smashing the clocks.
  • This is the first episode of The Patrick Star Show where Cecil Star doesn't appear.
  • This is the first episode of The Patrick Star Show where Goofy Goober's Ice Cream Party Boat makes an appearance.
  • This is the second episode of the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise to have its title to end in "à la Mode. The first was "Krabs à la Mode" in the main series.
  • This is the second episode of the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise where Template:Data:Links is completely absent, as he does not make an appearance and he is not mentioned. It is also the fourth episode where he does not appear following "The Algae's Always Greener," "Late for Breakfast," and "Stair Wars." In addition, this episode is the second where he is absent alongside "Stair Wars" from both segments.
  • This was Alan Smart's last episode of The Patrick Star Show as a supervising director before he completely left the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise in late 2021.[10]
  • This is similarly to "Banned in Bikini Bottom," Krabby Patties got banned in that episode and GrandPat explained a story in this episode about how Ice Cream got banned because of ice cream prohibition referencing to the real world prohibition on alcohol in the United States.
