Transcript
Quotes
- SpongeBob: Now Gary, we can do this the hard way or the easy way. Or the medium way. Or the semi-medium-easy-hard way. Or the sort of hard with a touch of awkward-easy-difficult-challenging way. (He sees that Gary isn't responding.) So that's how you wanna play it?
- SpongeBob: And look at this brooch!
- Gary: Meow?
- SpongeBob: I don't know what a snail would want with a brooch!

Trivia/Goofs
- This episode runs 6 minutes and about 30 seconds long. It was the third episode running less than 11 minutes. This episode is that short due to the longness of its paired episode, "Shanghaied".
- This is the only episode to only use one voice actor (Tom Kenny).
- Comcast and Time Warner list this episode as "Gry Takes A Bath".
- When SpongeBob hands Gary the soap and the duck, after he says "I don't know what a snail would want with a brooch!", in the next shot the soap and the duck are gone.
- During the tree scene, SpongeBob calls Gary "Gary the Snail", but closed captions simply say "Gary".
- The text style in the title card is the same as in "Bubble Buddy".
- Despite the title, Gary never takes a bath.
- When SpongeBob places the soap on the ground, which he pretends are gold doubloons, he says, "Don't drop them." This is a reference to a term referring to rape in men's prisons.
- When SpongeBob is taking a bath, he has his sleeves on.
- Gary actually does take a bath in "The Great Snail Race" and "Grooming Gary".
- When SpongeBob is chasing Gary, he makes several word puns. In closed captioning, the normal version of the phrase is shown instead of the punned version (for instance, captions say "share" instead of "chair").
- When SpongeBob says "You are going to take a bath, and you are going to get clean right now!", captions say "You're going to take a bath, and you're going to get clean now!".
- When SpongeBob says "I don't know what a snail would want with a brooch!", captions say, "I don't know what a snail wants with a brooch."
- In the German version of this episode, the episode is called Die Wanne ist Voll, which means "The Tub is Full". This is a reference to a German song from the 70's.
- In the Spanish version this episode is called "Gary toma un bagno".
- In the Italian version this episode is called "Gary si fan un bagno".
- In the middle of episode, Gary breaks his shell. This wouldn't happen in a couple season's in Have You Seen This Snail?, What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?, and Shell Shocked in the future.
