"Something Smells" is a SpongeBob SquarePants episode from season two. It premiered on October 26, 2000 and was the first episode to use digital ink and paint techniques for the animation rather than transferring the characters to cels (from Help Wanted to Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II).

Plot

SpongeBob SquarePants and Gary The Snail wake up and realize that it's Sunday. Therefore, SpongeBob decides to have a sundae, but when he looks in the freezer, there is no ice cream left. So, SpongeBob decides to use something else. He uses onions, ketchup, and peanuts from the peanut plant he has been growing in the bathroom window. Little does he know, SpongeBob gets rancid breath. SpongeBob then gets out his Sunday list. It says: "Say hi to everyone in Bikini Bottom." Everyone in town avoids him because of his bad breath. He approaches a giant pile of bubble gum sitting on a bench. It then morphs into the body of Patrick Star. SpongeBob tells him that he is confused, and Patrick doesn't notice the stench since he doesn't have a nose. He says that everyone's avoiding SpongeBob because SpongeBob is ugly, and SpongeBob looks in a mirror. It looks okay, but when SpongeBob says "Hi!", the reflection smells his breath, readies a hammer and smashes itself. SpongeBob is shocked by this, and isolates himself in his home. Then, Patrick comes in and makes SpongeBob admit that he is ugly and proud of it. It works, and SpongeBob's confidence grows, so they go to the cinema. When they go in and sit down, all the fish still avoid SpongeBob. All of the fish leave the theater. Patrick eventually gets hungry so they go to get a snack, but no-one is at the counter, so SpongeBob gives Patrick some of his sundae. Suddenly Patrick has a stomachache after he eats the sundae, so Patrick goes to the Gents. When a guy runs away from Patrick in the toilet, he thinks he has caught the 'ugly' from SpongeBob. SpongeBob smells Patrick's extremely smelly breath, and comes to the conclusion that they're not ugly, they just have bad breath from eating the "sundae". After they realize this, they run around shouting "WE STINK!" and they melt down the movie theater. In the last scene, SpongeBob and Patrick run into Squidward Tentacles and say, "Guess what Squidward? WE STINK!" Squidward looks confused and SpongeBob and Patrick run away laughing.

DVD release

The episode was slightly altered on the DVD releases. On the original TV version, SpongeBob walks up to a building and says "Hi, building!" which causes the building to flee from SpongeBob's breath. He goes up to Patrick and says "I just don't get it!" and Patrick says "I don't either." On the Season 2 DVD release, and the YTV version, the scene goes like this:

SpongeBob: (walks up to a building and waves) I just don't get it! (the building flees)</br>

Patrick: I don't either. (SpongeBob walks up to Patrick; the rest of the scene goes as normal, resulting in the same lines being repeated)

Trivia

• In the credits at the beginning of the episode, animator Edgar Larrazabal's name is misspelled as "Edgar Larrazabla".
• When Spongebob, walks out of the kitchen with green smoke behind him, when he drops the spoon in his hand, it bends when it hits the floor, and then when the camera changes to spongebob walking towards Gary, the spoon dissapears.
• When SpongeBob is playing the piano, his sleeves are pink.
• When SpongeBob pours ketchup into his sundae, the bottle reads "katsup."
• There are at least eleven fish at the movie theater that look exactly like Tom.
