The one with "Solitude in E Minor".

The one where we see [=SpongeBob=] fail his driving test for the first time.

* FailedASpotCheck: [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick can't seem to tell each other's voices apart from Squidward's in the bubblegram scene, as they're both unaware that Squidward caused them to fight and dislike each other. Granted, this IS [[SuperGullible [=SpongeBob=]]] and [[TheDitz Patrick]] we're talking about here, but still...

* LaserGuidedKarma: Squidward's attempt to ruin [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick's day ends up with the two bugging him and fighting over him. As a result, they destroy his bass, his art paintings and ultimately his entire house.

* DoWrongRight: When [=SpongeBob=] realizes that he's cheating and starts flipping out, Mrs. Puff begs him to at least cheat his way to the end of the course instead of crashing again.

[=SpongeBob=] and Patrick send messages to each other by whispering into bubbles. Their giggling gets on the nerves of Squidward, and he decides to put a stop to it by imitating their voices and sending messages filled with insults. Squidward's interference causes [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick to fight and eventually end their friedship. Meanwhile, [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick separately perform acts for Squidward that earn his gratitude and 'friendship'. But what's this? The two are fighting over Squidward now?

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Spongebob claims to have no friends outside of Patrick, this was before his circle of friends was expanded and he could easily name 3 friends besides Patrick.

* FailedASpotCheck: [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick can't seem to tell each other's voices apart from Squidward's in the bubblegram scene, as they're both unaware that Squidward caused them to fight and dislike each other. Granted, this IS [[SuperGullible [=SpongeBob=]]] and [[TheDitz Patrick]] we're talking about here, but still.....

-->'''Squidward:''' ''(while pretending to sound like Patrick)'' "If I had a dollar for every brain you don't have, I'd have one dollar."

** When [=SpongeBob=] asks Squidward to "give him an A", he plays A sharp/B flat.

** Squidward's "Solitude in E Minor" is not in E minor. It is impossible to tell what key it is in, as there are only two notes (C and F, respectively).

* HighPressureEmotion: After [=SpongeBob=] smashed the double bass due to Patrick interrupting his song, Squidward is shown to have red in the face and has steam erupting from his head, along with the kettle whistle sound effect, before kicking [=SpongeBob=] out of his house.

* ImpededCommunication: [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick are communicating with bubbles that contain their voices. Squidward, whose house is between theirs, gets annoyed and secretly sabotages their messages by using his own bubbles that let out mean insults to them. This causes Bob & Pat to hate each other for the episode.

Squidward's genius plan worked! While [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick were blowing bubbles to communicate, Squidward interfered by blowing his own insults at them, causing them to fight. Now they're not even friends anymore! Meanwhile, [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick separately perform acts for Squidward that earn his gratitude and 'friendship'. But what's this? The two are fighting over Squidward now?

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: This is the most competent Patrick has been in any episode. He even had to talk [=SpongeBob=] out of being dumb.
** Mrs. Puff speaks in a deep voice whenever she's inflated. Later episodes starting with "No Free Rides" have her aways speak in her normal voice when inflated.
** Mrs. Puff also is much more [[CharacterizationMarchesOn tolerant and friendlier towards [=SpongeBob=]]] in this episode. (However, it could take place during the early days of [=SpongeBob=]'s boating school lessons, before she lost her patience and feared teaching him).

* EvilIsPetty: Squidwfromard becomes antagonistic simply for being annoyed by the duo's antics behind his house, even though they otherwise weren't bothering Squidward at the time.

* DoorSlamOfRage: When Squidward successfully makes [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick mad at each other, [=SpongeBob=] slams the door of his house while Patrick goes back into his rock and closes it with him on it, only to come out like an accordion. Squidward also does this at the end out of frustration his house is completely demolished.
