It’s their reminder that Patrick and Sandy are his dearest friends and wouldn’t even think about not rescuing him that snaps him out of it.

Actually, since he admitted he got careless, it's not really "never my fault".


* NeverMyFault: [=SpongeBob=] blames being outside in general for his accident and not at all [[note]]except at least once he admitted he was careless after checking out of the hospital[[/note]] on his failure to watch where he was going. Granted, he was ultimately convinced of this because he believed he couldn't afford another accident like it again, and had witnessed in rapid succession several things where it could possibly happen.

By selling [=SpongeBob=]'s soul to the Dutchman for a mere 62 cents without hesitation; this was such a bad move that Squidward, who ''hates'' [=SpongeBob=], is absolutely disgusted with Krabs and gives him a scathing WhatTheHellHero over it.

* LiteralMetaphor: "Going to Davy Jones' Locker" is an old nautical phrase that simply means drowning from being lost at sea or by shipwreck. In the [=SpongeBob=] universe, it's a literal gym locker and appears to serve as their version of Hell. It's also full of Davy Jones' used socks, which let out a foul smell.
