this trope is for when something unexpected happens at the end with little to no explanation, this is more of an example of Series Continuity Error so i'm moving it there


* AssPull: Even taking the show’s usual NegativeContinuity into account, most fans drew the line at this episode insisting that Squidward never visited [=SpongeBob=]’s home, after the two had been neighbors for six seasons at that point. What makes it worse is how unnecessary it is for the plot to work, as saying that Squidward hadn’t visited [=SpongeBob=]’s home “in a while” or that he never came there specifically for a cordial visit would have worked just as well.

* DesignatedHero: Assuming we’re supposed to view [=SpongeBob=] as the hero in this, his goal amounts to trying to force Squidward to visit him by stealing from him and renovating his entire home to be an exact copy of Squidward’s, which drives the poor octopus to the brink of insanity by the end. He does offer Squidward a place to stay after the latter’s home gets burned to the ground, but that does little to change the fact that [=SpongeBob=] in this episode not only comes across as an entitled and inconsiderate but also a disturbed StalkerWithoutACrush.

* NeverLiveItDown: Along with the likes of "Choir Boys" and "Boating Buddies", this is one episode that's often brought up by people who insist that [=SpongeBob=] is a DesignatedHero who solely exists to make Squidward miserable and drive him to the brink.

* NightmareFuel: "Squid's Visit" has a somewhat creepy premise, with [=SpongeBob=] making his entire house look EXACTLY like Squidward's down to every minor detail. But the real creepy parts are when [=SpongeBob=] is heavily breathing with a crazed look while staring at Squidward, and at the end when Squid's house burns down-he then gets a VERY weird looking expression, and then has a fantasy of him having tea with his [[ItMakesSenseInContext vacuum]] and he then says "Yes, I'd love another spot of tea, Mr. Vacuum Cleaner!" and [[ItMakesSenseInContext "care for some casserole?"]] in an eerie tone underscored by unsettling background music, and then he starts laughing insanely with his eye-twitching while the screen zooms in on his face.

* BodyHorror: When Squidward goes into a catatonic stupor, he began to make a creepy (sometimes hilarious) face.

4 Things that have something on his face:

1. A lot of ''tears'' on Squidward's ''eyes''

2. Human teeth inside Squidward's mouth

3. His face is sweating from all the ''stress'' while he was ''in'' [=SpongeBob=]'s ''house''

4. Lots of wrinkles on his nose

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: [=SpongeBob=] ''really'' wants Squidward to come visit him, but of course Squidward wants nothing to do with him. So [=SpongeBob=] "borrows" Squidward's vacuum cleaner so he has no choice but to come visit, and he finds that [=SpongeBob=] has redesigned the inside of his house as an ''exact'' replica of Squidward's, down to the smallest details. Squidward is understandably freaked out by this, and spends so long looking for his vacuum cleaner that his own house burns down because he left his oven on. Then [=SpongeBob=] offers for Squidward to come live with him until his house gets rebuilt, which mentally destroys Squidward. This kind of plot would be perfect for a horror movie or ''Franchise/TheTwilightZone'', not a children's cartoon show.
