Why This Scene Is SCUMBOB?[]
Throughout the whole episode, Patrick refuses to share his secret box to SpongeBob and won't reveal what's inside it. But when he actually does allow his friend to look inside, it turns out to be a piece of string. Unfortunately, that turns out to be a con, because Patrick had one thing in mind: the string is part of a secret compartment of the secret box. And as he pulled the string and opened the secret compartment, he takes out what appears to be the embarrassing snapshot Squidward took of SpongeBob from the Christmas episode. Patrick, SpongeBob is your best friend and you're laughing at the photo Squidward cruelly took of him on Christmas Day?! How could you do that to him?!
