The conch signal is a device that was once used by Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy in The Adventures of Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy. SpongeBob wins it as a prize in a contest in the episode "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II."

Description[]

The conch signal is light purple on the outside and dark purple on the inside with 3 dark purple spots and it resembles a regular conch shell, except it is much bigger.

Role in episode[]

After winning a contest, SpongeBob wins the conch signal and uses it to see if it works. This causes Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy to hear it and come to SpongeBob's house. They warn SpongeBob that it is not a toy and should only be used in emergencies.

SpongeBob uses it to call them so that they can help him open a jar of mayonnaise. Barnacle Boy is angry that SpongeBob has used it in a false alarm. Mermaid Man convinces Barnacle Boy to let SpongeBob use the conch for minor favors because superhero emergencies do not come up very often.

SpongeBob uses the conch signal several more times until the super duo is tired. Barnacle Boy takes it away from SpongeBob and tries to destroy it with his heat vision, but fails. He then puts it in his pants and says that he will destroy it later.
