- Mr. Krabs: Well, we haven't seen a single customer all morning!
- Squidward: That's not a curse. [sips coffee] That's a blessing.

- SpongeBob: Mr. Krabs, what makes you so sure that even if we find that old lady, that she will lift the curse?

- Mr. Krabs: That's it? That's the curse?!
- Madame Hagfish: You think I'm gonna waste good spells on a bottom-feeder like you? Have a nice day.
