* NarmCharm: [=SpongeBob=]'s harangue about how he doesn't want to be an adult anymore, listing off all of the fun "baby" things he wished he could still do before collapsing on the floor, kicking and screaming as he bawls his eyes out. Silly, yes. But at the same time, the acting by Creator/TomKenny makes it sound so genuine and the simple desire of wanting to continue bonding with his Grandma can be very relatable that it's impossible not to feel the heartstrings tugged for the sponge.

* NeverLiveItDown: Squidward's relentless and cruel teasing of [=SpongeBob=]. Believe it or not, some have said that, after seeing the way he’s portrayed here, they completely understand why his treatment has become disproportionately unfair in later seasons.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Was the police officer who confronted Squidward just being condescending when he told him there was nothing forcing him to stay there? Or was he subtly trying to convince Squidward to leave so he wouldn't cause any more trouble in Tentacle Acres?

Here, it's clearly meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but later episodes overuse the joke of the nameless bit players all being sadistic jerks until it's too mean to be funny.
