10	Squidward sees Squilliam, his rival, on a ''House Hunters''-esque ShowWithinAShow called ''House Fancy'', and is very ticked off at how fancy his house is, so he calls the host of the show (voiced by Alton Brown of ''Good Eats'' fame) and tells him his house is fancier than Squilliam's. However, seeing how his house is mostly an average one, he has to fix it up. Then, when he finds [=SpongeBob=] stalking him through his window, he decides to let him help, where things after that go FromBadToWorse...
11
12	...and by that, we mean what is very likely the reason you remember this episode - '''[[SignatureScene that part]]'''. You know very well the one we're talking about. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeUiB783nq8 The part where Squidward gets his toenail ripped off.]] ''[[SchmuckBait Seriously, we strongly advise against watching it on a full stomach.]]''
13
14	!!House Fancy contains examples of:
15	* TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects: The ''House Fancy'' opening sequence.
16	* AgonyOfTheFeet: Squidward's sudden toenail gets ripped out by [=SpongeBob=]'s incompetence.
17	* BrickJoke: [=SpongeBob=] tells Squidward in an early scene that he lent his brain to Patrick for some chocolate bars. Later in the episode, Patrick shows up at Squidward's house to return his brain.
18	* ButtMonkey: Squidward, as usual.
19	* DidntThinkThisThrough: Squidward tells the host of ''House Fancy'' that his house is fancier than Squilliam's without thinking it might lead the host to want to see it for himself.
20	* ExactWords: Squidward tells [=SpongeBob=] to paint a faded spot on his wall. [=SpongeBob=] proceeds to splash blue paint all over Squidward's living room.
21	-->'''Squidward''': I told you just to paint the faded spot!\
22	'''[=SpongeBob=]''': Well, it ''all'' looked kinda faded.
23	* FamilyUnfriendlyViolence: Squidward's toenail is ripped free from his foot in the most graphic manner possible.
24	* HouseInspection: Squidward wants to show up his [[SchoolyardBullyAllGrownUp high school rival Squilliam]] by having his house on a TV show. Naturally, [=SpongeBob=] shows up to help and makes a mess of Squidward's home. Then the show host compliments him on his daring sense of style.
25	* TheLastStraw: Squidward's vacuum cleaner was full to bursting, having sucked up all of the house furniture and [=SpongeBob=]. Then when it sucks up [=SpongeBob=]'s brain, it reaches full capacity and explodes.
26	* PoorCommunicationKills: When [=SpongeBob=] helps Squidward move the sofa, Squidward tells him "Don't move until I say..." but then screams in pain as [=SpongeBob=] pushes the sofa over his foot. [=SpongeBob=] repeatedly crushes Squidward's foot and rips his toenail out because he thinks "OWWWWW!!" is the signal.
27	* PosterPatchup: Squidward notices a hole in his wall and tries to cover it up with a painting...only to discover that there is a faded spot where the painting originally was.
28	* {{Retcon}}: It's implied in "[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS3E8NoWeeniesAllowedSquilliamReturns Squilliam Returns]]" that Squidward knows where his rival lives, but in this episode, he acts like he's seeing Squilliam's house for the first time. Unless Squilliam has had major house improvements since the events of that episode, this could leave viewers confused.
29	* ShoutOut: ''House Fancy'' is one to ''House Hunters''.
30	** The theme song to ''House Fancy'' is a parody of ''Clean House''.
31	* SpecialGuest: Alton Brown as Nick Withers, host of ''House Fancy''.
32	* StalkerWithoutACrush: [=SpongeBob=], who was spying on Squidward through the window of his house. Squidward subsequently threatens to "get the cops down here again," implying it's [[NoodleIncident not the first time SpongeBob has done so]].
33	* SuddenAnatomy: Squidward suddenly has a toenail on one of his feet, just so it can get dislodged horribly.
34	* ThrowTheDogABone: Despite [[ItMakesSenseInContext his house being in ruins]], Squidward ''wins''.

43	Plankton tricks [=SpongeBob=], Patrick and Squidward to help him steal the Krabby Patty formula by convincing them to be in his rock band.
44
45	!!Krabby Road contains examples of:
46
47	* EightiesHair: Plankton has this for the episode after having used it to disguise himself as a prison guard's mustache in order to escape prison.
48	* BaitAndSwitchAccusation:
49	-->'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' Mr. Krabs makes me censor out all the patty ingredients for my lyrics.\
50	'''Plankton:''' Oh, that's terrible! Krabs shouldn't stifle a true artist like you! Go ahead and sing your patty song, uncensored!\
51	'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' ''[gasps]'' I know what you're doing!\
52	'''Plankton:''' What?! Me?! [[BlatantLies I'm not trying to steal the patty formula]].\
53	'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' You want me to join your band!
54	* BandEpisode: In this episode, after having escaped from prison, Plankton forms his own rock band with [=SpongeBob=], Patrick, and Squidward as part of his plan to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula.
55	* BrickJoke: Patrick joins the episode saying he found out where boogers come from. Later on in the episode, [=SpongeBob=] hides Plankton inside his nose as a booger to conceal him from the cops.
56	* CensoredForComedy: Mr. Krabs makes [=SpongeBob=] censor out the Krabby Patty ingredients for his lyrics, so he replaces them with [[SoundEffectBleep funny noises]] and [[SingingSimlish gibberish lyrics]].
57	* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: When Plankton is thrown back in jail, he has a new cell with a window where he's forced to listen and/or "practice" with the other bandmates for 22 years.
58	* DumbAndDrummer: Patrick, of course.
59	* {{Facepalm}}: Plankton's reaction when Patrick pulls out his heart and [=SpongeBob=] asks Plankton if that's what he means by "deepest secrets".
60	* TheGhost: Mr. Krabs is mentioned several times, but doesn't appear physically in this episode.
61	* GlassShatteringSound: When [=SpongeBob=] sees Plankton stealing the Krabby Patty formula, he yells at Plankton through the microphone, causing loud feedback which shatters the bottle that holds the secret formula.
62	* LameRhymeDodge:
63	-->'''Plankton:''' Yes! The Krabby Patty formula is mine...uh, I mean, we'll have a great time!
64	* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: [=SpongeBob=] hides Plankton from the cops by disguising him as a booger. After [=SpongeBob=] blows him out of his nose, Plankton tells him, "You will never speak of this to anyone!"
65	* PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The title of this episode is a reference to the album ''Music/AbbeyRoad'' by Music/TheBeatles. The title card even parodies the album's back cover.
66	* RapidHairGrowth: Patrick is revealed to have this ability, and to make it into different styles.
67	* RealMenWearPink: When Plankton shows [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick the T-shirts he made with the band name printed on them, Patrick asks for a pink one, much to Plankton's annoyance. Because Patrick himself is pink, as he points out, it looks like he has a tattoo on his chest.
68	* {{Sampling}}: The loud guitar sound [=SpongeBob=] makes when he suggests how the first song should go is taken directly from Music/{{Prince}}'s "Endorphinmachine".
69	* TopHeavyGuy: Squidward, of all people, after he goes through an intense training regimen to have his rock-star dream bod.
