Character

Jeffrey "Jeff"[1] Tentacles is Squidward Tentacles' father, Mrs. Tentacles' husband, Granny Tentacles' son, and Squidward's teenage cousin's uncle.

Description[]

In the book Hooray for Dads!, Mr. Tentacles looks very similar to his son and wears a brown shirt. The only differences between him and Squidward are that his shirt is a lighter shade of brown, his skin is greener than Squidward's, and he wears a red tie and glasses.

In Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years, he is yellow in color and wears a purple shirt.

In "Momageddon," he wears a purple sweater and has two strands of hair on his head and bushy moustache.

Personality[]

Not much is known about him, though Mr. Tentacles is shown to have a similar personality to his son as both have an uninterested air to them. He cares for his son as he was willing to spend time with him for the events.

History[]

He is mentioned in "Krab Borg" when SpongeBob tells Mr. Krabs that Squidward's father never hugged him. Squidward then claims that his father loved him very much.

Mr. Tentacles makes his physical debut appearance in the book Hooray for Dads!, indicating he is alive, contrary to what the past tense used when referring to him in "Krab Borg."

His name is revealed in Sponge Master.

Role in series[]

Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years[]

"Kamp Kow"[]

In Squidward's flashback as a baby, he takes a clarinet away from his son as he was annoyed by it. Mrs. Tentacles then gives him a toy of Lucky that made the exact same sounds as the clarinet.

SpongeBob SquarePants[]

"Momageddon"[]

Mr. Tentacles makes his proper series debut in "Momageddon" in which he, Harold SquarePants, and Krabs Senior visit the Krusty Krab for Bring Your Dad to Work Day.

Relationships[]

Squidward Tentacles[]

According to Squidward himself in "Krab Borg," his father loved him very much. Despite Jeff's love for his son, he dislikes his son’s clarinet playing as seen in the flashback of episode "Kamp Kow," where he unwittingly made his baby son cry after Jeff angrily takes away his clarinet due to being annoyed with it, but was relieved that Squidward at least stopped crying when Mrs. Tentacles gave him a toy of Lucky that had the exact sound as a clarinet.
