Plot
Spongebob is out jellyfishing. He catches a jellyfish, gets its jelly, and lets it go. He names it "Twelvy", due to it being his twelfth catch of the day. He then sees a blue jellyfish which he calls "No Name", who is apparently the only jellyfish in the fields who he has never caught, and compulsivly tries to get him but to no avail. Later, Spongebob goes on his lunch break at the Krusty Krab, and puts the jelly on a krabby patty. After a customer asks about the patty and tries it, he sings a song proclaiming its greatness and puts jelly on the patties of all the other customers, who enjoy it as well. Mr. Krabs sees the profitability, and puts the new patty on the menu. Spongebob, to his great delight, is tasked to go out and gather as many jellyfish as he can. He continues to catch Jellyfish, and Krabs continues to demand more, until Jellyfish Fields is completely deserted.
Spongebob concludes that there are "no more" jellyfish to catch, and begins to walk home. After several close encounters and strange events, No Name captures him in a jar much in the way that Spongebob catches jellyfish. No Name takes Spongebob to Mr. Krabs' secret factory, where he discovers that Krabs is cruelly treating and killing jellyfish to extract their jelly. After a confrontation, Mr. Krabs accidentally opens the voice activated door by saying the codeword: "open". The jellyfish all sting Krabs and escape, and No Name is finally named by Spongebob: Friend.

Trivia/Goofs
- During the montage of Spongebob catching Jellyfish and Krabs demanding more, a hideously stylized image of Mr. Krabs appears very briefly. This image has become an internet meme, under the name of "Morbid Krabs" or "Moar Krabs". The name was coined and the image popularized by Kortez 3000, a Youtube User who frequently uses Spongebob in Youtube Poops (humorous video remixes). Several other strange and disturbing images from the series have been used in similar ways.
- The Chum Bucket is visible through the front window of the Krusty Krab, but when the customers are watching the dancing fish while facing the front window, the Chum Bucket can't be seen.
- When SpongeBob is holding the wrench he states "The squeaky bolt on this door was driving me crazy" and tightens it. However, in the very next shot of him, the bolts on the same door are not even there.
- When SpongeBob is being followed by the blue jellyfish, he says, "It feels like somebody... wants to sell me something!" However, the captions read "tell" instead of "sell."
- When SpongeBob is only wearing underwear in Jellyfish Fields, his sleeves are still shown.
- SpongeBob imitated a rocket in this episode, but he complained and was shown he can't fly at all in The Sponge Who Could Fly.
- The music from Blizzard can be heard.
- Spongebob picking up the phone and hearing heavy breathing is a reference to the 1979 movie When a Stranger Calls.
- Squidward does not appear in this episode, and Mr. Krabs is shown working the register.
- The scenes when Spongebob says good bye to Twelvey and when No Name makes the power in SpongeBob's house go out were cut in the Fisher Price Interact TV version of this episode.
- When Mr. Krabs says "The door will only open if I say open", it only opens the second time he says the word, even though he says "The door will only open if I say open."
- At the Krusty Krab, when Spongebob first puts the jelly on the patty, the patty only has meat and a bun, no lettuce or tomatoes or any of the regular ingredients.
- When Spongebob Captures Some jelly fish by making a fake Hive.There is only 9 jellyfish.However, when he brings the jellyfish back to Mr.Krabs there is a total of 21 jellyfishes
