Added DiffLines:

* TrueCompanions: Patrick manages to get on another bus rather quickly, and is seen riding another one to go get [=SpongeBob=] (who's just gotten home through other means) at the end of the episode. The implication is that he [[{{Determinator}} spent all night trying to find another bus]] so he could save his friend, which puts him firmly in this trope.

* HoardingTheProfits: When [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick begin discussing what they'll do with their shares, Mr. Krabs tries to take all of the treasures for himself, which [=SpongeBob=] protests, as they found it together.

Added DiffLines:

* ExtremeOmnivore: [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick find nothing wrong with chewing the gum they scraped off from the underside of the Krusty Krab's tables. Possibly justified since they're a [[FurryReminder filter feeder and bottom feeder]], respectively.

* AnAesop:
** Make sure you know where you're going and you know what to do in case an emergency happens (like being stranded). It doesn't hurt to have extra food and money with you as well, again in case of emergency.
** Also, never chase a bus. ''(imitating Grandpa [=SquarePants=])'' "[[SpaceWhaleAesop Especially one that's going up at a 90º angle!]]"
** Just because a place is different, doesn't make it dangerous. The first few minutes [=SpongeBob=] spends in Rock Bottom, he's utterly terrified by the dark atmosphere and unusual inhabitants. Eventually he gets used to the dark atmosphere, realizes the inhabitants are really no different in personality from the fish of Bikini Bottom, and overcomes the language barrier (the local accent is blowing a raspberry after every couple of words). He's even able to leave through the help of a local.

Being angry at someone for smacking you with a big fat balloon multiple times isn’t completely wrong. Plus Soongebob did board without paying. The bus driver was not the asshole here.


* {{Jerkass}}[=/=]KarmaHoudini: The bus driver who throws [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick off his bus in Rock Bottom when they need his help to get back home. And this all because he had enough of being hit with [=SpongeBob=]'s balloon and that [=SpongeBob=] didn't have the money.

** In fact there is a theory that it’s the same bus driver who’s getting some kind of revenge on [=SpongeBob=] for his earlier antics on the bus to Rock Bottom and radioed the other drivers to leave [=SpongeBob=] stranded.
