Suddenly, [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown Gary walks in on SB]], who panics and changes the channel to a [[UsefulNotes/AmericanFootball football]] game, unconvincingly stammering, "I-I-I-I was just looking for the sports channel, Gary..."
15	* "[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS2E13ShanghaiedGaryTakesABath Gary Takes a Bath]]" has two such scenes, which both contributed to the episode being [[BannedInChina banned in the UK for several years]]:

17	** Another scene has [=SpongeBob=] [[SuicideAsComedy intentionally strap a bomb to himself]] in a desperate attempt to get Gary to take a bath.
18	--->'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' '''''GARY! THERE'S A BOMB STRAPPED TO MY CHEST! IT'S GONNA EXPLODE IN THREE SECONDS UNLESS YOU TAKE A BATH!''''' ''(Gary doesn't move an inch, clearly unfazed and unamused)'' ...Pleeaase? ''(explosion)''

27	* In "[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS4E15SquidtasticVoyageThatsNoLady Squidtastic Voyage]]", Squidward accidentally swallows his clarinet. [=SpongeBob=] tries to help him and we get a shot of a mother and son walking past Squidward's house.
