Trivia
Cultural References
- Plankton's end quote, "Seasons beatings, underlings" is a spoof of "Seasons Greetings."
- Plankton's songs are parodies of Come All Ye Faithful, Joy to the World, Deck the Halls, and The Nutcracker Suite. The former song was one of the inspirations for "We're Not Gonna Take It" by Twisted Sister - another one of their songs, "I Wanna Rock" was later spoofed in the movie as "Goofy Goober Rock".
- Plankton's previous albums entitled "Born To Chum" and "Krabby Road" are parodies on Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" and The Beatles' "Abbey Road". "Krabby Road" was later used as a title of an episode (with its title card a parody of the back cover of "Abbey Road") - which could indicate that an album was made while Plankton, SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward were in jail.
- Doug Lawrence, who voices Plankton, is, ironically, from South Brunswick, New Jersey, which is about 15 miles from Freehold, where Bruce (The Boss) Springsteen was born.
