Characters

Synopsis

This episode consists of the content shown on the Krusty Krab's training video for new employees.

The tape talks about the history of the restaurant, from it's founding to the present day.

The tape also gives instructions on how to be a good employee, such as keeping the workplace clean, and how to have good hygiene. SpongeBob himself is the subject of the training, and throughout the episode is very eager to learn how to make a Krabby Patty, asking to several times throughout the course of the episode but being denied repeatedly. The episode ends with SpongeBob finally being told the formula. The narrator begins to say "The Secret Formula is-" before the episode ends abruptly.

Reception

Release

Trivia

Template:Trivia

  • The intro to Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor (known as "Quest for the Best I") is featured in two photo montages as we see the Krusty Krab.
  • According to the episode's Pop-Up Trivia Facts (found on The Complete 3rd Season DVD Special features,) this is one of the most popular episodes in the season and series.
  • According to the Ultimate SpongeBob SpongeBash marathon's Celebrity Favorites, this is Keke Palmer's favorite episode.
  • If one would look closely at the "Training Manual," one can see the colors of the Hungarian flag (red, white, green).
  • The sign in the bathroom written in English ("Please, wash your fins") and Spanish ("Lave las aletas") is a parody of other similar signs found in public stores such as Walmart. The Spanish part of the sign is not a totally correct translation because it literally says "Wash the fins." A more correct translation of "Please, wash your fins" is actually "Por favor, lávese las aletas."
  • Plankton's robotic Krabby Patty walker is seen in the Chum Bucket LEGO set.
  • During the original airing, many viewers did not know the ending was intentional and believed their cable stopped working.
  • When the spatula, cash register, straw and ketchup packets begin to spin around, causing SpongeBob's eyes to follow them, his nose is much shorter during the close-up.
  • Apparently, Mr. Krabs has a fleeting fear of robot overlords.
  • This episode reveals that Mr. Krabs may have a problem with excessive sweating as he was shown having easily noticeable sweat marks without doing much.
  • This is the first episode to not tell much of a plot and instead tell people about the Krusty Krab. "Boat Smarts" is similiar to this.
  • This is the first episode to reveal Mr. Krabs' naval past (other than his obvious mariner mannerisms).
  • When Mr. Krabs picks up Plankton to flick him out of the restaurant, Plankton's sped up voice slowed down can be heard saying, "Felicitations, malefactors! I am endeavoring to find my minions. And I know just how to speak their language."
  • Running Gags: SpongeBob saying "Can I make a Krabby Patty now?" and being swatted by the bug swatter.
  • The reason the tape ends abruptly is possibly as a preventing of Plankton getting his hands on the secret formula of the Krabby Patty. However, it is revealed in two Season One episodes "Plankton!" and "Pickles," and on the SpongeBob SquarePants Facebook page.
  • This is the second time the opening credits were not in an underwater background. The first was "SB-129." Ugh's opening credits are different style and font, but still underwater.
  • In the episode "As Seen on TV," Mr. Krabs is extremely stingy about making an expensive commercial. However, this episode is a somewhat professionally-made production most likely paid for by "Krusty Krab Inc.," which is also mentioned.
  • This episode may have no purpose as it is a training video for future employees, even though SpongeBob and Squidward will work at the Krusty Krab for the rest of their lives (as seen in "Squid on Strike"). Although this episode may take place before "Squid on Strike."
  • This is the second time a title card is on solid black. The first was "F.U.N."
  • Squidward and Patrick both noticed the narrator, thus breaking the fourth wall.

Cultural references

  • The music playing during 2 photo montages of The Krusty Krab being shown is "Quest for the Best I," which is a parody of the Survivor's Eye of the Tiger intro.
  • When Mr. Krabs says "The money is always right," it is a parody of "The customer is always right."
  • At one point, a young Mr. Krabs is humming the tune of "Blow the Man Down," the sea shanty the SpongeBob SquarePants theme song is based on.

Errors

  • In TV airings from 2002 (The episode 1st aired) to 2006 (The year that got fixed,) the logo combo from Nickelodeon's Rugrats (The 1998 Klasky Csupo and Nickelodeon) (W/ Rugrats copyright info) logos) logo appears instead of the normal logo combo (United Plankton Pictures & Nickelodeon (W/ SpongeBob SquarePants copyright info) logos). The reason the wrong logo combo was inserted is that the show's closing credits were electronically inserted alongside promos from other Nickelodeon programming and the show's closing logos. When the data was entered for this episode, the wrong logo combo was programmed in.
  • On the TV guide, the letter "K" in the word "Krab" was replaced with the letter C, effectively meaning it is called "Krusty Crab Training Video."
  • This episode should have been the next episode after "Help Wanted" since the narrator says that he has been recently hired.
  • In this episode, Plankton's eyelid is dark green, but in most episodes, his eyelid is the same color as his skin.
  • On some versions, instead of saying "the secret formula is...," it says "the secret formula i..."
  • In the very beginning, the menu sign called "Galley Grub." In the Galley Grub, "Krusty Supreme" misspelled as "Krusty Suprem," there's no price for "Krusty Supreme," and the text is distorted.
  • The narrator says the Krusty Krab closes at 6:00pm.
  • Although SpongeBob seems to be learning how to make a Krabby Patty for the first time here, in "Help Wanted" he is able to make them with ease before being officially hired. However, it is most likely that this is a video for new employees and SpongeBob is the "bus boy," but is just acting.
  • Plankton's voice goes normal to high pitched when he is being tossed out, but in all others he can be understood.
  • When SpongeBob is seen in "Personal Hygiene," lots of soap appears, even though SpongeBob is not actually seen with a soap bar, or a soap dispenser.
  • In the 2nd montage of still photos of the Krusty Krab, the ninth picture shows the menu which has "Krabby Patty" misspelled as "Krabby Pattie." This picture looks very similar to the one seen on "Pickles."
  • In Bahasa Indonesia version, when Patrick shocked after hearing the word "customer," that word was never translated into Indonesian word, "pelanggan." However, in other episodes, the word "customer" is translated.
  • The graph, which shows the financial performance of the Krusty Krab has the axis featuring the profits inverted, so the Krusty Krab's profits are actually going down.                                                                
  • In this episode is revealed Patrick is afraid of ghosts exclaiming that the narrator is one. But in "Ghoul Fools," Patrick has no fear of ghosts and no belief of them. It's possible that he never believed in ghost after Squidward told Patrick the ghost is actually the narrator and lost his fear of them.        
  • When SpongeBob washes his hands extremely the are wiped clean off in the next scene he has his hands back this may be because his hands grew back like in "Graveyard Shift" when he bit his hands of and they grow back even in "It Came from Goo Lagoon" SpongeBob says Good thing I keep a spare set of hands and he takes off his hands growing new ones.
