- In "Missing Identity", he is a board member at Snail Po Headquarters, where he feels a disturbance after SpongeBob tastes Gary's snail food. Here, he is referred to as "Peterson" by a female board member.
- In "One Krabs Trash", he offers Mr. Krabs $500,000 for the soda drinking hat.
- In "The Splinter", he asks Squidward when his Krabby Patty will be ready, and Squidward pretends to crush his face with his tentacle.
- In "Fools in April", SpongeBob "pranks" him by drawing a face on the back of his head, making him think he was a different person. Nat is amused by SpongeBob's prank.
- In"Krabby Land", a child version of him is seen.
- In "Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition", he gives DoodlePants helpful advice on how to defeat DoodleBob. He also says he is a better artist than Squidward.
His most notable appearance is in "Plankton's Regular", where his name is revealed to be "Nat", which is said several times during the episode. Plankton is lamenting over his failure, when Nat comes to eat at the Chum Bucket, and proclaims that Plankton's chum is the best thing he has ever eaten, much to Plankton's surprise. He becomes a regular customer of Plankton, eating at the Chum Bucket every day. Mr. Krabs refuses to allow Plankton to have even one customer, and attempts to win Nat over with his superior food. However, Nat fends off all of SpongeBob's persistent attempts to give him a Krabby Patty.
Later, Mr. Krabs adds chum to the Krusty Krab's menu, and when Nat tastes it, he is disgusted, proclaiming that it is the "second foulest thing he has ever tasted." At the end of the episode, when Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob have been captured by Plankton while attempting to steal his secret formula, Nat angrily comes into the Chum Bucket and confronts Karen. It is revealed that Karen had been paying him to eat at the Chum Bucket, and that he actually hates Plankton's Chum. He returns the money to Karen, saying that he cannot stand anymore of the disgusting chum, and that he has already had to go to the doctor twice since he started eating it. He then collapses from food poisoning, and is last shown being carried away by paramedics.
