* RunningGagged: This episode is the last one to use the "Cecil doesn't pay Squidward" running gag. It seems to end it by having Cecil finally give him the money... [[SubvertedTrope which turns out to be fake]].

'''Backpay Payback'''
'''Original air date''': 2/24/2023
Granny Tentacles is determined to make Cecil pay back his lifelong debt of newspaper delivery money he's cheated Squidward out of.
!!Backpay Payback contains examples of:
* AnArmAndALeg: Squidward gets all of his body parts dismembered by Cecil slamming the door and window on him. Later, he gets one of his legs bitten off by Tinkle.
* ADayInTheLimelight: This episode mainly focuses on Cecil, Squidward, and Granny Tentacles.
* GaveUpTooSoon: Squidward and Granny Tentacles try to crack open a safe. They hear Cecil calling and run off to him, at which point the safe opens after they've already left the room to reveal the real money inside.
* GretzkyHasTheBall: Patrick throws Squidward and Granny Tentacles into a basketball hoop and yells "Touchdown!"
* LiteralMetaphor: Cecil and [=GrandPat=] literally put their brains together to come up with a plan.
* MandatoryLine: This is one of Patrick's smallest roles in the series, with him only having three lines, none of which have anything to do with the plot.
* RunningGag:
** Granny Tentacles making {{Bait and Switch Comment}}s under her breath.
** Characters spontaneously singing "Ya ta ta ta ta!"
* TriviallyObvious: An early example of Granny Tentacles' tendency to make {{Bait and Switch Comment}}s:
-->'''Granny Tentacles''': Squidward, you're my favorite grandson... ''(grabs his nose tight)'' probably 'cause you're my ''only'' grandson!

* AlliterativeTitle: '''H'''ouse '''H'''unting.
