At the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs rushes in shouting like a maniac. He tells of the return of (fishing) hooks. SpongeBob is confused, and Mr. Krabs tells him that he should not go near a hook, or he will be brought up further than the surface and he will be eaten or sold at a gift shop. Patrick tells SpongeBob to come to the 'carnival' with him. He agrees, assuming that he's not quitting work but just taking a break. However, the carnival is a bunch of cheesy hooks, and Patrick deliberately hooks himself. SpongeBob cries, until he sees Patrick again. He demands to know what happened, and he said that he floated down before he reached the surface and it is fun. Mr. Krabs catches them, and tells them off. The next day, Patrick persuades SpongeBob to play 'hooky' again. Mr. ... Mr. ... Eugene H. Krabs is a fictional character on the Nickelodeon animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. ...

SpongeBob gets hooked (by Squidward, as a lesson), and to get it off, he has to take off his clothes in front of Pearl and her friends, who laugh very hard. SpongeBob gets so upset that he cries out loud and runs back to his house. Meanwhile, Patrick is dropped off by a bus while trapped in a tuna can. He asks "Does somebody have a can opener?" and the episode ends. Image File history File links Hooky. ... Image File history File links Hooky. ...

Trivia

  • The events in this episode are a metaphor for skipping school or work. This is shown by Spongebob skipping work to see the hooks and getting "hooked" by one the next day (Hooky is a slang term for truancy).
  • While promoting The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, the title character of that show appeared in the lower-right hand corner on the day of its premiere and due to one of his inventions temporarily transformed the cartoon into a puppet show during the scene where Mr. Krabs is making SpongeBob and Patrick recite an oath he is giving.
  • Character death was implied when a young fish's shoes was seen near the hooks.
  • This is the only time when it is SpongeBob who implies that Patrick is dumb. When Patrick asked "Are you going to listen to a big dummy or are you going to listen to me?" SpongeBob weakly replied "Ummmm....".
  • The music playing during one scene is actually from a short segment of Flubber.
  • This Patrick's last appearance with m's for eyebrows. In season 2 and on they are z's.
  • The usual French narrator had only one short line in the beginning of this episode. "Fishermen have quite an effect on our undersea creatures."
  • When SpongeBob came out of his house for work, he says "I'm ready" four times, but closed captions show him saying that line three times.
  • In the Krusty Towers episode, it is shown that SpongeBob goes to work the right way, but in this episode it is shown that he goes the left way(leading to Squidward's and Patrick's house.

But, let's be honest, while Hooky the Cripple may very well be marketed in the form of a kid?s book, what with its relatively tiny dimensions, large print and simple message of tolerance, it's really a book for adults who will understand the humour in the disposition of its protagonist.
Poor Hooky is the son of a beautiful prostitute, named Madonna, in 16th century Sicily.
Taken to court, Inquisition-style, he is defended by the greatest lawyer in all the land, Giovanno from Milano and, thanks to the effectiveness Giovanno's controversial courtroom techniques, is acquitted.
