Plot

This romantic episode starts at the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs smells something weird. He goes to the cash register, where the smell is coming from. It's the smell of money. However, it doesn't smell like it usually does. Mr. Krabs can smell that the money is equal to $49.08, which means that 1 penny was lost. He goes crazy, while SpongeBob reassures him that 1 penny isn't that much. Mr. Krabs, while giving a speech on his love of money, see Mrs. Puff eating at Krusty Krab, and instantly falls in love with her. He wonders what happened to Mr. Puff, and then the audience is shown his horrible fate (he was turned into a lamp). Mr. Krabs, then, speaks gibberish and SpongeBob tries to translate what he was saying.

That night when Mr. Krabs goes on a date with her to the Fancy! Restaurant with imported music, but ends up spending $100,000.00 in one night. The next time Mr. Krabs goes on a date with her, he leaves SpongeBob in charge of his wallet. However when he goes to Mrs. Puff's House, he forces SpongeBob to buy a long series of increasingly unnecessary things for her. Mr. Krabs is still getting mad at him for spending his money. Eventually, SpongeBob becomes fed up and after Mr. Krabs makes a snide comment about him, mouths off to Mr. Krabs and leaves. In the end, Mrs. Puff says she doesn't feel comfortable accepting all of the gifts and says she'd rather go Dutch, gives Mr. Krabs some money, and kisses him, causing his eyes to form into a heart shape.

Quotes

SpongeBob: "WAIT! DON'T TELL ME!! You want me to run down to the store and buy Mrs. Puff something she doesn't need! Then you want me to run back here so you could say" (imitates Mr. Krabs and looks likes Mr. Krabs with the eyes), "Arr, SpongeBob, you're spending all me money!". Then I'll say "But Mr. Krabs, I'm only doing what YOU SAID!!!!!!". Then you'll say "We're not talking about this" (SpongeBob draws a square in the air with his fingers), "or this" (draws a triangle in the air with his fingers and starts to get frustrated), "WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIIIIIIIIIIIIS!" (He draws scribbles all over the screen until the whole screen is black.)
SpongeBob Well Mr. Krabs, do you wanna know what I think? AAAAHH! Regga Fleeba Brecka Brecka Smullen-ullen Mr. Krabs!! Yegga Hegga mergin Wallet! Dimmy Middy Spend! Rivy Flivy Diva Shiva MR. KRABS WALLET! (he angrily storms off to his pineapple muttering under his breath)
Mrs. Puff: (After SpongeBob's rant is done), "I didn't know SpongeBob had such a colorful vocabulary..."
Spongebob: It's just a penny sir!

The copyright information at the end of the episode is dated 2000, even though this episode aired in 2002. This is because the episode was made in 2000.
The music at the end of episode is later used for title music of All That Glitters.
The fancy restaurant Mrs Puff and Mr Krabs were at was the same in the episode Chocolate with Nuts.
21st time Patrick doesn't appear.
First time crabs appear in a title card. Shell of a Man, Nautical Novice, and Grandpappy the Pirate are the others. If you want to count Mr. Krabs, Friend or Foe and Oral Report are also the others.
In this episode, it was revealed that Mrs. Puff's husband was turned into a lamp. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, there was a puffer fish light and it's possible that Mr. Puff is currently at Shell City.
SpongeBob has cursed in front of Mr. Krabs before, in Sailor Mouth. However, since no sound effects (such as dolphin chirps) were heard during his cursing this time, it may have been a different vocabulary.
This marks the first and only time Mr. Krabs fell in love with Mrs. Puff and fell in love with something/someone besides money.
In Summer Job, Mrs. Puff asks Mr. Krabs, "Are you saying we should go on a date?" It is a likely reference to this episode, and may indicate that Mr. Krabs and Mrs. Puff broke up at some point.
In the European Spanish version, We see that SpongeBob says the same curse as the original however strange they may be, although the Latin American Spanish version, what it does is babbling like crazy and every sentence ends in-ufala as will shout: "In the wallet of Mr. Krabs!".
The episode itself aired after Valentine's Day 2002.
In the Valentine's Day week, it airs with Valentine's Day.
When Spongebob tells Mr. Krabs that he needs a giant rusty anchor for his date, Mr. Krabs says he dosen't have it when his own house is a giant rusty anchor.
This is the second time where Spongebob's speech is gibberish due to him swearing the first time was "Rock Bottom" he also did Employee of The Month.

Goofs

After Mrs. Puff was looking up SpongeBob's language and sets the dictinary down, when she gets up, the dictionary instantly moves to the pillow.
Mr. Krabs fell in love with Mrs. Puff in this episode. But in Growth Spout, Mrs. Puff doesn't know him (although it's probably because it was dark outside and it was in the night time, so she could not see who it really was).
Mr. Krabs meets Mrs. Puff in this episode. However, in an older episode, Life of Crime, he gets a gift from her. It's possible that it just said "from Mrs. Puff" and he never met Mrs. Puff until now.
In one scene, Mr. Krabs's nose looked like the color of his shell.
