[edit] Plot

While working at the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs sees SpongeBob using a little too much mustard. The cause of him doing this is that SpongeBob isn't getting enough sleep, which causes Spongebob to develop insomnia. Later that night, SpongeBob can't sleep, so he goes to Patrick for help, but his attempts to help SpongeBob involve him doing things to get out of bed (i.e. reading a book entitled The Land of Perpetual Excitement and singing a lullaby named "Get Up, Be Active"). He then gets SpongeBob to drink coffee, which causes SpongeBob to run very fast.

He begins to see weird things such as a sea troll which is actually a shrub, seeing a glass of milk on a billboard talking to him, and Mr. Krabs as a giant with mustard dispensers as eyes. SpongeBob then runs into a pile of mustard barrels, which falls down and splashes on him, sending him to a strange mustard land. As SpongeBob is lying on a bunch of barrels, 8 Squidwards come out of the barrels and one of them says "Mr. Krabs is going to be upset." The Squidwards then push SpongeBob into the lake of mustard. SpongeBob is picked up by a strange-looking eagle-like creature (similar to Gary). The flying creature brings SpongeBob to a pink mountain, which is actually Patrick as a giant. Patrick sticks his tongue out and the flying creature drops SpongeBob on his tongue and Patrick swallows SpongeBob. SpongeBob falls into the stomach of the giant Patrick and meets Sir Sea Sal, "the sea sleep king." He sprinkles some "magic dust" on SpongeBob and he falls asleep.

SpongeBob then wakes up back at his house in Gary's litter box and, thinking he has finally got some sleep, prepares for work, but he is still sleepy. He then climbs into the mustard barrel and then Mr. Krabs takes him out. SpongeBob begins to cry since he failed to get some sleep and Mr. Krabs sees he is crying the perfect amount of mustard on the patties.

[edit] Trivia

  • The episode's title is a pun of the word "Insomniac".
  • This episode was to air on January 16, 2012, but was pulled. This might be because of the episode's story being changed (see below).
  • This episode was supposed to be Production Code 168 and was to be paired with Planet of the Jellyfish but was changed to 171 and was paired with Karen 2.0.
  • When SpongeBob walks to Patrick's house, Squidward's house is missing.
  • This episode was going to be about Mr. Krabs having a nightmare and turning into a mustard dispenser. It is a possibility that it was changed due to it being too scary for the younger kids or causing the episode to have a TV-14 rating; this might also explain why the episode became part of the 171st episode. But the mustard dispenser Krabs still appears in SpongeBob's nightmare. It was probably a callback to the original plot.
  • Patrick knows lots of songs and stories that can keep people awake.
