• [Squidward is trying to start a marching band] 

  Squidward : OK now, how many of you have played musical instruments before?

  Plankton : Do instruments of torture count?

  Squidward : No.

  Patrick : Is mayonnaise an instrument?

  Squidward : No, Patrick, mayonnaise is not an instrument.

  [Patrick raises his hand again] 

  Squidward : Horseradish is not an instrument either.

  [Patrick lowers his hand] 

• SpongeBob SquarePants : What kind of monsters are we? That poor creature came to us in his hour of need, and we failed him. Squidward's always been there for us when it was convenient for him! Evelyn, when your son was trapped in that burning building, who saved him?

  Evelyn : A fireman.

  SpongeBob SquarePants : And Larry, when your heart gave out from all those tanning pills, who revived you?

  Larry the Lobster : Some guy in an ambulance.

  SpongeBob SquarePants : Right! So if we all could just pretend that Squidward was a fireman or some guy in an ambulance, then I'm sure we can all pull together and discover what it truly means to be in a marching band.

  Fish : Yeah, for the fireman!

• Squidward : But I have a theory. People talk loud when they wanna act smart, right?

  Plankton : CORRECT!

  Squidward : So if we play loud, people might think we're good! Everybody ready?

  [band gets ready] 

  Squidward : And a one, and a two, and a one, two, three, four.

  [band plays loudly, glass breaks] 

  Squidward : [baton breaks]  Okay, new theory. Maybe we should play so quietly, no-one can hear us.
