The "I think she looks better this way." quote is a SCUMBOB!-infamous scene from the omega giga extremely notorious SpongeBob Season 8 episode, Demolition Doofus. In this scene, SpongeBob says, "Sheesh! I don't understand what's she's so upset about. I think she looks better this way." which pretty shows that SpongeBob actually prefers Mrs. Puff being deflated (which is an equivalent of a person thinking that someone else looks better being crippled).
Why This Scene Is So Distasteful[]
It's bad enough for your protagonist to make fun of a disabled person, but saying that person actually looks better in her disabled state is quite character damaging, especially when he is the one responsible for the condition.
As Mr. Enter has stated, "That's like saying the guy you crippled looks better missing his leg, that he lost in a bloody car accident, that, once again, you caused!".
