back -- and winds up discovering a disgusting secret behind it.
* DoubleMeaningTitle: Not only does it refer to Plankton losing his customers, but [[spoiler:Narlene cooks the food with her feet.]]
* InternalReveal: While the viewers (and Plankton) witness the sight of Narlene's food being made, the campers are totally unaware. Plankton makes a big show of revealing it so the campers will go back to his place.
-->'''Plankton''': Well, then feast your stupid eyes on this! She's making your precious food ''[[spoiler:WITH HER FEET!]]''
-->'''Plankton''': Well, then feast your stupid eyes on this! She's making your precious food ''[[spoiler:WITH HER FEET!]]''
* MessOnAPlate: Since Plankton is a LethalChef, his food is just colored slop on a plate. All of the campers hate it, and it's implied to have some degree of sentience.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: Parodied when [[ItCameFromTheFridge Patrick's meal comes to life]] and tries to convince him not to eat it.
-->'''Food''': Are we really so different, you and I?\\
'''Patrick''': Hmm. Technically, I'm hungrier. ''[eats it]''
* StatingTheSimpleSolution: When Plankton complains to Karen that Narlene stole all his customers away, she points out that if he wants to get them back, he could just take cooking classes so his food is better and the campers actually want to eat there. Plankton ignores this.

'''The Taste of Defeat'''
'''Original air date:''' 5/26/2023
When Narlene sets up her own restaurant, all the campers head there and leave Plankton out of business. Threatened with no pay if he doesn't sell food to the kids, Plankton has to sabotage Narlene's restaurant and get his customers back.
!! "The Taste of Defeat" contains examples of:
* IAteWhat: Narlene cooks food for the campers [[spoiler:entirely with her feet, including sticking her foot into soup and licking it off]]. When the campers find out, they abandon her restaurant entirely.
* LethalChef: Plankton's cooking is terrible and almost inedible. Not helping is that he recycles old, uneaten food -- since most people never actually eat it, it's implied he's been reusing it for a while.
* TomatoSkunkStinkCure: To clean off the smell of the skunk snails, Karen puts Plankton in a can of tomato juice and shakes it.
* SupremeChef: As evidenced by the campers' reactions (and even Plankton's), Narlene's food is legitimately delicious. The only problem is with [[spoiler:the way she cooks it]].
* UnconventionalFoodUsage: Mo and Larry play table tennis with Plankton's slop.
* VillainEpisode: The plot revolves around Plankton trying to put Narlene's restaurant out of business.
* WorkOffTheDebt: When Plankton drive all the customers away, Narlene makes him pay for their food. He can't afford it, so she hires him as her dishwasher.

'''Original air date:''' 5/26/2023
While [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick are friends with the nightmarish Trawlers, Sandy's pretty creeped out by them. The three go for a sleepover with the Trawler cabin, but when [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick unexpectedly disappear, Sandy is left wandering around the cabin to look for them.
!! "Scaredy Squirrel" contains examples of:
* HorrifyingTheHorror: The sight of Squidward's [[NightmareFace ugly, sleep-deprived face]] has the already creepy Trawlers running away screaming.
* MistakenForMurderer: When [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick disappear inside the Trawler cabin, Sandy comes across various horrific sights that make her think they've been kidnapped or killed by the residents. Sea spider Preda Tory has two mummified cocoons shaped like [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick (which are actually just her dirty laundry) and Kidferatu's room has two coffins (which are actually tanning beds). Sandy sees Roxy wielding an axe and apparently slicing [=SpongeBob=]'s face off, but it's just cheese for the dish she was cooking to welcome Sandy for spending time with them. [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick are alive and well, and even had a part in planning the dinner.
* MissingReflection: Being a vampire, Kidferatu is invisible in his counselor photo, which only shows an ascot and hat.
* OrphanedPunchline: When the Dinghies and Trawlers have a sleepover, we hear Roxy telling a joke that ends with "...so we say to the guy, 'if that's your severed head, then why do we have the receipt?'"
* RunningGag: Elwood repeatedly saying "This is fun!"
* ToiletHumor: When everyone gathers for dinner, Patrick makes a fart joke.
-->'''Roxy''': I cut the cheese myself. ''(referring to literal cheese)''\\
'''Patrick''': ''(farts)'' You and me both, sister.
