Role in series
"Fiasco!"
Fiasco appears as a somewhat major character in this episode. He is first seen in the Krusty Krab, squirting ketchup and mustard together on a plate before leaving for almost the rest of the episode.
Fiasco is seen at the end of the episode when he is moved by Template:Data:Links's stomach art. He then stated that he will 'never paint again.'
"Are You Happy Now?"
Fiasco is seen briefly at the Art Museum, and is called being a "performance artist." He "critiques" Template:Data:Links's sculpture by saying: 'Squid... Ward... Go towards... The light... Of my flamethrower!' He then melts it with his flamethrower due to his disliking of it.
"Life Insurance"
Fiasco is seen painting a wall. Squidward runs through the "wall," making a hole in it, but Fiasco thinks the painting is perfect with a hole in it. However, Template:Data:Links and Patrick also run through the painting. Fiasco hates the painting with three holes in it.
"Surf N' Turf
Fiasco is seen painting a picture of Template:Data:Links and Template:Data:Links on an easel in Sandy's treedome. SpongeBob then takes it away from him, much to the painter's dismay.
