'''Flatts the Flounder''' is a flounder who first appears as a cameo in "[[Sandy's Rocket]]", where he was one of SpongeBob's "alien hunting" victims. He also makes another minor appearance in "[[Texas]]", where he attended Sandy's Texas party. His only major appearance, however was in "[[The Bully]]", joins Mrs. Puff's boating school and wants to "kick SpongeBob's butt." SpongeBob takes this extremely seriously, reacting as if he were going to actually '''kill''' him. He makes many attempts to reason with and/or escape him, but to no avail. He even calls Patrick to protect him, only to find out that Flatts is with him and that they were community college buddies. He also tries to go to Mrs. Puff to help, who talks to Flatts (much to SpongeBob's dismay) and explains to SpongeBob that "kicking his butt" means that Flatts wants to become his friend (this is obviously not true).
