Plot

SpongeBob and Patrick board a bus to get home from Glove World, a glove-themed amusement park. They have apparently gotten on the wrong one and head off a large cliff. The cliff leads to a sort of aphotic zone called Rock Bottom, inhabited by anglerfish-like creatures. Patrick gets on a bus home but accidentally leaves SpongeBob behind. After several unsuccessful attempts to get on the bus, he heads to the bus station and gets in a very long line. By the time he gets to the front, he finds out that the last bus to leave for the night is already gone, and he's stuck there until morning. He gets scared by a raspberry sound coming from nowhere, and he dashes back to the cliff. The raspberry sound's maker reveals himself to be a friendly-looking anglerfish creature, who has SpongeBob's balloon from Glove World. The creature blows up the balloon, ties it to SpongeBob's wrist, and allows him to float up the cliff and back to Bikini Bottom. Unfortunately, Patrick thinks SpongeBob is still in Rock Bottom and goes back; causing bad luck for Patrick! The aphotic zone is the depth of the ocean that is not exposed to sunlight. ... Anglerfish is the common name for the 200+ species that comprise the bony fish order Lophiiformes. ...


Trivia/Goofs

  • At the beginning of this episode when SpongeBob leaves Glove World, he says, "Another funtastic day at glove world." When he says, "At Glove World," his mouth doesn't move.
  • When the bus heads toward Rock Bottom, SpongeBob says, "I think we're on the wrong-- AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!", but the original captions read, "I think we're on the wrong bus!"
  • Rock Bottom is also seen in the video game, SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom.
  • The citizens of Rock Bottom speak English while blowing raspberries in between sentences.
  • Look close: When SpongeBob is floating back to Bikini Bottom, his pineapple can be seen to the very left of the city. By the poor blending, you can tell the pineapple is composited into the image.
  • The design of the clock in the bus station resembles a Poké Ball from Pokémon, but actually is a common red and white fishing bobber.
  • Music from this episode can be heard in season 4's Squidtastic Voyage.
