The devil donut is a character who appears in the episode "The Donut of Shame."
Description
The devil donut is a red donut with red frosting, black horns, and a red tail similar to a devil.
Role in episode
The devil donut appears after Template:Data:Links steals Template:Data:Links's donut and interrogates Patrick for his actions. It and the angel donut seem to act like his conscience. The devil donut tells Patrick not to listen to the angel donut because it is covered with sprinkles, while the angel donut tries to stop Patrick from eating the donut.
After Patrick is unsure of what to do, the devil donut immediately devises a plan in which Patrick hooks the doughnut to a chain, eats it, and can pull it back up with the chain before SpongeBob even finds out what happened. This caused the angel donut to remark that it was a great plan.
