Squidward: Then what am I supposed to do, Mr. Krabs? I was almost done mixing this Jell-O!
Mr. Krabs: Jell-O? You were making...Jell-O?
Squidward: Well, yeah. What else would I be doing behind the register at lunchtime?
Mr. Krabs: Arg-arg-arg-arg-arg-arg-arg! Oh...This whole time I thought you were jerking off behind the register! Alright, carry on then.

“Sorry,” Jake repeated. “It was just... reflex.”
Well. Now there was a part of me that kind of wished he had in fact been looking at porn. Because even that conversation would have been less awkward than this one was rapidly becoming.
