Plot
At the fry cook museum, SpongeBob and Patrick are amazed by everything. They see a greasy griddle with a golden spatula embedded in the grease. On it is a plaque, which says "Many have tried to pull this spatula out of this ancient grease, but all have failed. Only a fry cook worthy of King Neptune himself can wield the golden spatula". SpongeBob actually pulls it out, and King Neptune appears. He asks who pulled out the spatula, and everyone says SpongeBob.
Cultural References
- The Poseidome is taken from Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. (Neptune being the Roman).
- The whole spatula in the "ancient grease" is a reference to the Arthurian legend of Excalibur, or the sword in the stone in which whoever pulls the sword from the stone would become the King of England. Also, the fact that it's called "ancient grease" can be seen as a play on Ancient Greece (even though Neptune is actually an Ancient Roman God.)
- This is one of few times Spongebob works the register.
- This, along with Valentine's Day and The Paper are not broadcast on Nickelodeon much, because they are paired with holiday episodes, although April Fools Day is not an actual holiday.
- List of "qualities" that a royal fry cook must have:
- Must be left-handed (Spongebob has two left hands.)
- Must wear red or blue underwear
- His wallet contains (unknown)
- His big toes are (unknown)
- He has six (unknown)
- Though Neptune is a Roman God, he takes SpongeBob to a sports arena he calls "The Poseidome", which is a reference to his Greek name Poseidon.
- The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie is somewhat similar to this episode, regarding that some of the jokes are used again (such as Patrick heightening the number of tasks SpongeBob can do (though he was lowering the number of days it would take SpongeBob to get the crown back in the movie). Also, in the movie King Neptune is voiced by someone else and looks different. But in Krusty Towers Squidward mentions King Neptune XIV, which is a possibility the two may be different.
- The man taking a shower is actually Tom Kenny himself.
- This is the third episode between SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs; the first 2 were Suds and Arrgh!; and the last 5 were Squirrel Jokes, Life of Crime, The Fry Cook Games, Driven to Tears, and The Pink Purloiner.
