* When Squidward gets his second wind, he bites one of the Patricks crawling on him in half. We never see him spit the other half out. Hopefully, he destroyed the nerve cluster with that bite...

** While his behavior in the epilogue is subject to a lot of AlternateCharacterInterpretation, two possibilities are equally as chilling. Either he CameBackWrong due to the sheer agony of his split up state ([[NotSoDifferent making him much like the Tortured One]])... or he was ''always'' TheSociopath, tricking his friends for ''years''.

* The epilogue: [=SpongeBob=] gave his own best friend the undercooked Krabby Patty on purpose and orchestrated everything; the Tortured One's rampage and the deaths of Krabs and Plankton; all so he could take out his rivals and his stint as the hero of the town would ensure that the citizens of Bikini Bottom would be none the wiser when he had the town within the palm of his hand.

* A small group of survivors have found refuge under Bubble Bass's leadership. He assures them that, despite the ground shaking, they are safe inside the building. And then the Tortured One breaks through the roof. It consumes almost everyone inside, and then reaches for a mother and her child. The little girl clings to her mom, shouting that she's scared. The only thing her mother can do is tell her to not look. AdultFear at its finest.

* [=SpongeBob's=] return is very cool — until you realize that he was somehow able to lift the Tortured One's arm off the ground. That is strength he never had before since in the original show, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErZhd3qvPYs he could barely do one rep with a dumbbell that uses]] ''plushies'' as weights. Compare that to the last two panels of [[https://stillinthesimulation.com/untitled-comic/chapter-16-memories/ this comic where he's lifting the Tortured One's arm, which probably weights millions, if not, tens or hundreds of millions of times his body weight]], and it's clear that this sudden boost of strength is the first indication that he has CameBackWrong.

* We now see the [[TorturedMonster Tortured]] [[AnimalisticAbomination One]] — the source of all those hands, and the tunnel itself. The sea floor around the Krusty Krab breaks apart, and from beneath rises ''the'' Patrick. The final boss. A starfish so big, each of its arms ''dwarf'' Squidward's kraken form. At its smallest, the Tortured One is at least 8 feet in diameter. In other words, ''it's a starfish large enough to swallow an adult human whole''. Makes you wonder if the Wiki/SCPFoundation would make a [=SpongeBob=]-themed SCP out of Patrick and the Tortured One should they stumble onto Bikini Bottom.

* [[IronicEcho Porifera decides to repay the lesson Patrick gave [=SpongeBob=] on marine biology]]...by sucking up all the Patricks and eating them in the way sea sponges eat anything. We see Patricks being dragged into too-small holes on Porifera's body, then turned inside out by the suction. The "waste" billows from Porifera's back in a cloud of ''[[OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank red]]''.

* Porifera rips one of the Tortured One's arms in half down the length — so the Tortured One ''rips his face off''. Lot of that going around lately.

* It's confirmed that Mermaid Man died after the Patrick-Mask ripped his face off. He and Barnacle Boy have been partners for most of their lives. BB watched his partner, mayhaps his only friend, bleed out in their lair.

* Flashback to before the comic began; in a rather expected jerk move, Squidward told [=SpongeBob=] that he didn't want to go jellyfishing. Then he took it further by emphasizing that they were ''not'' friends. Shortly after, Patrick knocks on his door. Or rather, ''a'' Patrick, as the horror has begun. Squidward barely manages to escape being eaten, and runs outside to find Patricks devouring his neighbors. And on the ground next to a net, a familiar set of square pants. [=SpongeBob=] is dead, and the last thing Squidward told him was that they weren't friends.

* After capturing Sandy, the cultist Patricks show her the hole containing the Tortured One... but all Sandy sees is a swirl of stars and color. From this, [=SpongeBob=] emerges, and encourages Sandy to join him.\\
Then we see the ''real'' hole, where Patricks are seemingly '''melting''' into the bottom, which is nothing but a black void. And Sandy seems about to give in...

* [=SpongeBob=] is back! Or is he?\\
After being eaten by Patrick, he's able to regenerate. But he's also clearly not the same goofball we all love. He's serious, vengeful...\\
And he's not done regenerating. Pieces of sponge are scattered across Bikini Bottom, across all the Patricks. Now they come together, growing bigger and bigger. Until they form a massive gorilla-like beast that can match the Tortured One.\\

* At some point, a small Patrick disguised itself as the face mask of Bikini Bottom's favorite hero, Mermaid Man. When Barnacle Boy comes calling about the army of Patricks, the small one reveals himself... and ''rips Mermaid Man's face off.''\\
Thanks to the evolving art style, every gory detail is shown, even the blood spattering on Barnacle Boy's horrified expression.

'''''Down in the deep dark sea.'''''

* Sandy thankfully manages to overcome the Tortured One's mind games and make a stand against the Patricks. But then, small grabbing hands erupt out of the ground. They ''tear'' the cultist Patricks apart and clearly intend to do the same to Sandy. The only way she survives is by shedding her outer suit and running, but even the tunnel is full of hands

''The Bikini Bottom Horror'' is a DarkFic on Patrick losing his mind and going on a massacre. As such, this webcomic is ''rife'' with it.

* By far the worst thing in this chapter is how Patrick acts. No longer like a monster. Instead, he seems more like a {{Slasher}} villain. Smug, intelligent, and cruel. He's ''enjoying'' torturing his former friends.

As this is the primary reason for the series ''existing'', this page is '''full'''.

[[caption-width-right:350:Do you know how Sea Stars feed? ''Let me show you.'']]

** And of course, him murdering his (former) best friend Spongebob by impaling the little guy with his sucker-like stomach proboscis, then eating his dissolving flesh. [[ToThePain Whilst explaining the process.]]

* One of the Patricks drags Sandy out of the Krusty Krab to fate unknown... but probably to be eaten alive. Mr. Krabs begins to beg, calling Patrick evil- and then the ''other'' Patrick suddenly appears [[StealthHiBye behind him]].

* The reveal that the secret ingredient in the Krabby Patty secret formula is ''Patrick''. His flesh, harvested from a regenerated clone kept restrained and fed by Mr. Krabs. The main Patrick has been eating his own meat for years, to say nothing of how the rest of Bikini Bottom has been packing away the Patties.
** Patrick only discovered this when he happened to consume an under-cooked Krabby Patty. The regenerating cells inside passed his clone's memories on to him- years of being cut apart, force fed, regrowing, only to be cut again; all in an endless loop. No wonder Patrick snapped.
** If Patrick hadn't ate the undercooked patty, Krabs would've continued that disgusting practice for the rest of his life. And possibly beyond, if he finally passed on the secret in his old age. And it could've gotten even worse if the Krusty Krab ever became a franchise restaurant...

* We get to see the Patricks feasting on the citizens of Bikini Bottom, reducing them to skeletons. As seen in the page image.
* Squidward brutally rips out one of the Patricks' brain, claiming the starfish never used it.

* Mr. Krabs survived his dismemberment. But it turns out that was just the beginning of his suffering. The Patricks fed him a ''raw'' Krabby Patty. It regenerated inside him- and a miniature Patrick explodes out like a [[Franchise/{{Alien}} chest-burster]].

* By far the worst thing in this chapter is how Patrick acts. No longer like a monster. Instead, he seems more like a Slasher villain. Smug, intelligent, and cruel. He's ''enjoying'' torturing his former friends.

* In order to save Sandy, Squidward taps into his hidden potential, and transforms into a Kraken. He's bigger than the Krusty Krab and has a secondary beak-mouth (radula) hidden inside his tentacles. He ''rips'' through the Patricks with ease.
** During this, Squidward points out the escalation that just happened- Bikini Bottom is tiny; the majority of the citizens are less than 4 inches tall. But his transformation is bigger than a lobster trap, which puts him at around 3 or 4 feet in size. In other words, what previously effected only the whimsical inhabitants of the underwater city may soon begin affecting the ''human'' world.

* After capturing Sandy, the cultist Patricks show her the hole containing the Tortured One... but all Sandy sees is a swirl of stars and color. From this, Spongebob emerges, and encourages Sandy to join him.\\

* One of the Patricks accuses Squidward of helping Mr. Krabs profit off the Tortured One. Only for Squidward to remind him that Krabs was greedy and paranoid and wouldn't reveal the secret formula to ''anyone''. Not even his most trusted employees. Cue the mother of all MyGodWhatHaveIDone moments as that Patrick realizes that he murdered his best friend and so many others, for ''nothing''.

* Sandy thankfully manages to overcome the Tortured One's mind games and make a stand against the Patricks. But then, small grabbing hands erupt out of the ground. They ''tear'' the cultist Patricks apart and clearly intend to do the same to Sandy. The only way she survies is by shedding her outer suit and running, but even the tunnel is full of hands...

[[folder:Chapter 10, The Tortured One]]
* We now see the Tortured One- the source of all those hands, and the tunnel itself. The sea floor around the Krusty Krab breaks apart, and from beneath rises ''the'' Patrick. The final boss. A starfish so big, each of its arms ''dwarf'' Squidward's kraken form. At its smallest, the Tortured One is at least 8 feet across. In other words, ''it is a starfish large enough to eat a human being''.

* A small group of survivors have found refuge under Bubble Bass' leadership. He assures them that, despite the ground shaking, they are safe inside the building.\\

* Mrs. Puff is leading another group of survivors, and they seem to have adapted to the apocalypse a little... ''too'' well. They've already put together a caravan of armored boats (based on Film/MadMaxFuryRoad, complete with a Doof Warrior and cries of, "Witness me!") and somehow acquired a large number of guns. It's worth noting that at this point, Sandy barely bothers questioning this new element of insanity in her life.

* The Tortured One tries its hypnosis trick again, this time on Squidward. He sees all of the Patricks' victims asking him to play them a song on his clarinet. We're treated to a ''lovely'' image of Spongebob and Larry holding out the instrument... While their skin is cracking and melting off their bodies. It's quite possibly the most outright ''disgusting'' panel in the comic so far.

* Plankton seems to be doing well, using his robot to go all Film/PacificRim on the Tortured One. But then the small Patrick returns, and kills Plankton- by ''popping'' him.

* After Karen's self destruct, Squidward lands on the Krusty Krab sign and is impaled through the heart.

* Flashback to before the comic began; in a rather expected jerk move, Squidward told Spongebob that he didn't want to go Jelly Fishing. Then he took it further by emphasizing that they were ''not'' friends.\\
Shortly after, Patrick knocks on his door. Or rather, ''a'' Patrick, as the horror has begun. Squidward barely manages to escape being eaten, and runs outside to find Patricks devouring his neighbors. And on the ground next to a net, a familiar set of square pants. Spongebob is dead, and the last thing Squidward told him was that they weren't friends.
* The Tortured One speaks for the first time, in order to justify the slaughter of innocents. When Guilty Patrick asks why they should die if they never knew the truth about Krabby Patties, The Tortured One says:\\

* When Squidward gets his second wind, he bites one of the Patricks crawling on him in half. We never see him spit the other half out. Hopefully he destroyed the nerve cluster with that bite...
* [[spoiler: Spongebob's]] return is very cool- until you realize that he was somehow able to lift the Tortured One's arm off the ground. That is strength he never had before, and the first indication that he has ComeBackWrong.

* Spongebob is back! Or is he?\\

---> '''''F''' is for '''F'''riendship, it can't last forever''\\

* Porifera decides to repay the lesson Patrick gave Spongebob on marine biology. By sucking up all the Patricks and eating them in the way sea sponges eat anything. We see Patricks being dragged into too-small holes on Porifera's body, then turned inside out by the suction. The "waste" billows from Porifera's back in a cloud of ''red''.
** For that thought, Porifera's design is certain to trigger nightmares in anyone who suffers Trypophopia.

*** And for ''that'' thought, the fact that Porifera/Spongebob seems to have been conscious within all the different sponge parts throughout the whole comic. Most certainly a FateWorseThanDeath.
