Pat No Pay is an infamous episode from Season 5 of SpongeBob SquarePants. In this episode, Patrick must work at the Krusty Krab because he cannot pay for his food.

Why Making This Episode Did Not Pay Off[]

  1. Patrick is an idiotic jerk, as he tries to get away with eating Krabby Patties for free and makes a complete mess of the Krusty Krab.
  2. Mr. Krabs is treated horribly, despite him doing nothing wrong this time. All he wants is simply for Patrick to pay for his food.
  3. Patrick fails to accomplish every single task that Mr. Krabs assigns him with:
    1. Instead of mopping the bathroom floor, Patrick eats all of the hand soap.
    2. Instead of putting ice in a barrel, Patrick smashes the freezer, much to Mr. Krabs' dismay.
    3. Instead of putting garbage in the garbage disposal, Patrick puts Mr. Krabs' money bag into it, destroying both it and the Krusty Krab.
  4. The pacing feels incredibly rushed, likely due to the episode only being four minutes long.
  5. Patrick does not face any consequences for not paying Mr. Krabs and/or destroying the Krusty Krab.
  6. Bad Ending: The Krusty Krab gets destroyed, as well as Mr. Krabs' bag of money, while Patrick blandly asks, "Can I eat now?"

Redeeming Qualities That Can Pay for Their Food[]

  1. Mr. Krabs threatening to ban Patrick from Krabby Patties and making him work at the Krusty Krab is completely justified.
  2. SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs are likeable characters.
  3. The beginning of the episode is pretty good.
  4. There are some funny moments here and there.

Reception[]

  • Mr. Enter ranked this episode at number 10 on his "Top 10 Worst Patrick Episodes" list, due to how idiotic Patrick is and how horribly Mr. Krabs is treated.
