Hello readers! This is JayZeeTee16 speaking! It's been about almost two weeks since the last chapter, and I'm about to list out another worst moments for the show's crustaceous cheapskate crab, Mr. Eugene Krabs.
Since the fatass starfish and the snoppy octopus are already set out, it's time to see how the employer has gone through. He serves as a character and as the secondary antagonist in the series. Why secondary antagonist? Because Steven Hillenburg point out that he is one of the main antagonists besides Plankton in some episodes. Anyway, back to the worst moments, he haves a extremely massive obsession of money, due of his family being poor, which explains it in the first place. Of course, for those who watch Friend or Foe, you'll see the crab's one-shot friendship with Plankton, who is the main antagonist in the series. After taking credit from Plankton for "making" the Krabby Patties, he decide to sell them, in which explains why he was selfish and cheap in the newer episodes.
He couldn't stop being like this for once, even for his adopted whale daughter, Pearl Krabs. He also hides this from his mother named Mama Krabs, and used to be a former pirate captain, just like his Granddad. You can tell that's how he got his "pirate" accent from and aware of the existence Davy Jones and The Flying Dutchman. For those who watch the Krusty Krab Training Video, He founds a old retirement home that was made for elderly and turned it into a restaurant, named the Krusty Krab, basing off his old ship. For those who feel sorry for him, he haves a deceased father named Victor Krabs. For those who now hate him nowadays, please feel welcome to enjoy this chapter.
Anyways, let's get started for Mr. Krabs's Worst Moments! For those who wanted a Spongebob's Worst Moments chapter, it will come around soon.
Number #1 - Pizza Delivery
In this episode, he antagonized Squidward by making him deliver the Krusty Krab Pizza with SpongeBob, all because he was been a total rush. The entire order would have been completely finished if he didn't ignore the final detail.
Number #2 - Squeaky Boots
Here, out of his cheap nature, he gives Pearl a pair of boots for her birthday instead of fancy slippers. After selling them to SpongeBob, he steals them back and breaks his heart, due to the squeaking noises and seeing this as a bad idea. Eventually he is driven insane and eats them, which was heard repeatedly at the end of his hiccups. I bet this is where the "think twice' or "think before you act" message comes in place.
Number #3 - Arrgh!
This episode is number one of his primary worst moments. In this, Mr. Krabs gets SpongeBob and Patrick to be pirates and help him find the Flying Dutchman's treasure, due of enjoying the board game they're playing. The two eventually see that Mr. Krabs was using their gameboard as a map and that he wanted the treasure for himself. Good job on the duo, because you have no idea how selfish he is in this. All he wanted was the treasure for himself. I'm glad he get want he deserves at the end of the episode.
Number #4 - Bubble Buddy
In this episode, he forced Squidward serve to Bubble Buddy. Later on, he joins Squidward and everyone else in popping Bubble Buddy because SpongeBob had paid Krabs in (worthless) bubble-money for expensive services and food until they found out he was alive. Again, this is where the "think before you act" message comes in place.
Number #5 - Patty Hype
If anyone remembered the last chapter, Mr. Krabs and Squidward picks on Spongebob for having a "lousy" idea. But, since the Pretty Patties are selling, he decides to take over his employee's stand so he can earn money. However, the Pretty Patties turned out to have side effects that angered the customers and they chased Mr. Krabs back and forth, even though it was SpongeBob who sold them the patties. That's what the boss get for taking over the stand. I believe the reason there are side-effects are in the food coloring because Spongebob probably think that Mr. Krabs might be involved or didn't know there were side-effects in the first place.
Number #6 - Life of Crime
In this episode, he lied to Spongebob and Patrick about "borrowing", which turned out to be stealing. The lesson he taught them caused them to fight after a candy bar incident and the lollipop incident (Patrick also accused the policemen). Okay, it very hilarious that the duo "busted" the crab about "borrowing" the stuff he stolen, but overall, that was kinda off for lying to them.
Number #7 - Pressure
In this episode, he just picks on Sandy along with Spongebob, Patrick, and Squidward. Bullying message here?
Number #8 - The Smoking Peanut
This episode is number two of the crab's worst moments. Here, he is taking stuff for free on Free Day and unintentionally stolen the oyster's pearl at the end. I guess he's taking the "free" part too far, even the Narrator was confused by this. This conflict caused Spongebob to believe he was responsible for it and the crab ultimately gets caught for this, making the sponge innocent, even though he threw a peanut. The plot twist of this episode (exposing Krabs) is very well written, and it shows us who's the REAL culprit of the mystery. Too bad the new era episodes doesn't have this.
Number #9 - Krabs-Borg
Yes, i'm putting this episode in. Why? Because the way Krabs is written in this is just shorty plain cruel. Not only he doesn't what's the employees talking about, but he pouts on Squidward (because of Spongebob). Why didn't Krabs just ask to Spongebob of what he is talking about? It's that easy! Plus, this is a similar stunt the writers put on Imitation Krabs. And of course, Why can't the crab just USE his claws to cut out the rope? Maybe because the rope is too tight to cut on? Anyway, all the boss wanted is too just listen to his music called Electric Zoo, which fails recently. Getting Mr. Krabs mistaken as a robot is very hilarious.
Number #10 - Graveyard Shift
Oh come on! I get this is a classic episode, but leaving the Krusty Krab after the customers "wanted" to give away their money at night is just wrong! Overworking is very wrong too! I guess this make sense because several restaurants out there are like that, working a 24-hour shift. Too bad he's wasn't aware of what's going on with Spongebob and Squidward.
Number #11 - Sailor Mouth
In this episode,he used foul language along with SpongeBob and Patrick after explaining to them about swearing and was about to punish them by making them paint the restaurant. This only began however when he stubbed his foot and lost his temper from the pain. Let me guess. This episode teach kids about not using profanity, right?
Number #12 - Jellyfish Hunter
This is number three of the crab's worst moments. Here ,he tricks SpongeBob into collecting jellyfish. SpongeBob soon discovers that Mr. Krabs is squeezing jelly out of them so more jelly krabby patties can be made at the cost of their lives. The jellyfish are set free and sting Mr. Krabs all at once, burning his body. He has no choice but to take jelly off the menu. The only good thing about the sponge here is his care about the jellyfish and the blue jellyfish leading him to a "factory". You know, this actually reminds me of Jellyfish Jam, except this time it's Mr. Krabs responsible for this. The meme, Moar Krabs, was famous for this episode. And lastly, the montage of Krabs saying more is super funny, because one part of it was lying on the table like a lady.
Number #13 - Squid on Strike
In this episode,he forcefully charges his employees for their "slacking", even though the stuff they did on the slacking list were needed to do their jobs, fired both of them, and got them to work for him "forever" in compensation for SpongeBob destroying the Krusty Krab (in reality in eternity with only their skeletons). I can't believe it. He did all that all because the profits are low? I guess that makes sense because paying bills is very deadly to some folks, but profits...Okay, next episode please. I'm not gotta talk about how much this conflict affects Spongebob and Squidward. It's just the squid demanding respect and the sponge not knowing what it truly is.
Before i can go any further, I believe the reason why Krabs haves these villainous is not only for being greedy, but also a complete spoiled brat. No wonder where Pearl gets it from. Plus, episode The Algae's Always Greener is not going be in this chapter. It's just Mr. Krabs in a alternative universe.
Number #14 - My Pretty Seahorse
In this episode, Mr. Krabs tried to get rid of Mystery (in which SpongeBob tries to hide her from him and Squidward). He told SpongeBob about a story about losing a friend (actually a dollar he spent on soda, which keeps him from dehydration) which guilted SpongeBob into releasing Mystery into the wild. While he was almost proud about getting rid of Mystery, Squidward told Mr. Krabs that Mystery ate his money. With no other choice, Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob tried to get Mystery back. Now this is the Mr. Krabs that i want back. Mr. Krabs wished for Mystery to be given up as he noticed she was not enjoying her unnatural surroundings and did console Spongebob when he tearfully gave up Mystery stating he had done the right thing for her. This episode almost my cry. Giving up something that is very meaningful to you is always going to be heartbreaking.
*Kids Next Door*
Kuki/Numbah 3 starts crying, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"
Number #15 - Nasty Patty
Number four for worst moments for the crab and one of my favorite episodes. He leads SpongeBob into making a Nasty Patty, because he thought the health inspector in his restaurant was a phony. He along with SpongeBob try to get rid of the "body" which was still alive, getting the health inspector injured more and more. Now this is the plot i can go for. I wish there is more of this type of plots in other episodes in modern world. Too bad it didn't happen. As for his worst moment, it just nothing but blackmail and accusing.
Number #16 - One Krabs Trash
Number five for worst moments. In this episode,Mr. Krabs tries to take back a soda-drinking hat he sold to SpongeBob after hearing about its price. He scares SpongeBob out of it with a paper ghost, defiles a grave, and fights an army of skeletons to get it back, only to find out it was worthless. WHAT?! Are you joking me?! The crab did all of that for NOTHING?! The ending with Spongebob with a new hat actually makes me feel better. And here's the thing. WHY CAN"T THE MODERN EPISODES HAVE THE SAME THING?! God! This is a major reason why everyone likes the first seasons better. In the seasons that are now doesn't have that anymore. WHY?! And for the part about Squidward's hopes and dreams, it sounds very sad. No wonder his life didn't improve for once, but i found disappointed that the Bottomites buried it there. Are the fish-people really that selfish?!
Number #17 - Can You Spare A Dime?
This episode is number six for the crab. Here, he accused Squidward for stealing his first dime, until SpongeBob shakes him. He then accuses Squidward for putting the dime in his pants at the end of the episode. Okay, That is just plain idiotic. Why didn't Krabs AT LEAST check his pockets if his "dime" was there in the first place? Is that the message of this episode?
Number #18 - Wet Painters
Remember I've mention this in the other chapters? Well, in this episode, Krabs messes with SpongeBob and Patrick by scaring them into thinking the paint they were using was permanent and tells them if any paint got onto anything but wall, he would chop their butts off. After they get some on his first dollar, he licks it off and confesses his lie and that it comes off with saliva and laughs while the two walk out angrily. He ruins Spongebob and Patrick's work by laughing about his own joke, causing saliva to hit the walls. This is a total cause and effect, and it ended perfectly. Again, this should have happened in the modern era.
Number #19 - Clams
Now this is totally number seven for the cheapskate! Here, he throws away the food, made SpongeBob and Squidward stay in the fishing boat, and holds them hostage to get back his millionth dollar from a giant clam. It gets worse when he refuses to take another dollar Squidward had. He gets his dollar back after trading his body with the clam. All that for his millionth dollar? Wow. That is deep. And this count as a major breakdown.
Number #20 - Born Again Krabs
Okay, here is number eight of his worst moments. In this episode, he tries to sell a rotten Krabby Patty to customers. He gets sick after eating it and is persuaded to be generous by the Flying Dutchman. However - after realizing it wasn't a dream - he steals back toys from children, soda from a customer, stopped another customer from watching free TV, nearly rips someone's arm off for a penny, and trades Spongebob's soul for 62 cents. Even Squidward was terrified that Mr. Krabs would sell Spongebob's soul especially when Spongebob defended Krabs. I'm so glad he showed some remorse o this episode. That's what he get for being cheap.
Number#21 - Krabby Land
Here is number nine. In this episode, Krabs creates a bogus theme park (a rip-off of Disneyland) and masquerades as a clown (a reference of Ronald McDonald and The Joker) so he can collect children's money. This brings SpongeBob to tears, and the children beat Mr. Krabs up and take his money after finding out he didn't care one bit about them, only their money. This is why i want to just the generous Krabs back.
So anyway, that is it for Part 1 for the crab's worse moments. In case you're wondering, this is the classic era. The next chapter is going to be the modern era, where Krabs's generous role is completely gone. Anyway, leave a comment for any suggestions. Peace!
