Transcript

Trivia

  • The title card is identical to Pickles, but it's a bit zoomed-in more.
  • Squidward's line "I just threw up in my mouth a little," is a reference to the movie Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.
  • On the radio, if you listen carefully, the announcer said the song was by Eely Dan. This is a obvious reference to the jazz rock band Steely Dan. Also the next song was by Lionel Fishy. This is also a reference to Lionel Richie.
    • The radio announcer also states that the songs name before "Sad Songs" was Aja , a song by Steely Dan on the album of the same name.
  • During the slideshow Squidward made of Spongebob's breakdowns over the years, Spongebob wore his Krusty Krab hat in all of the clips even though most weren't set at The Krusty Krab.
    • This means that Squidward might have made the slideshow up.
  • The Bikini Bottom Men's Choir made another appearance in this episode.
  • Tonitrus’s mournful crying sounds similar to Lightning’s wailing of mourning in the 41st chapter.
