'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' (''impersonating Mr. Krabs'') Argh, it's true, Mr. Squidward. Now get back to work!

* DumbassHasAPoint: Patrick telling Squidward that not only do you need a fort during a snowball fight, the fort the latter made was too small, which [=SpongeBob=] even agrees with. Needless to say, then were right.

-->'''Mr. Krabs''': Oh no. I've seen this on the late show. You ghoulish fiends hold me down and take turns nibbling on my innards. Then you eat my brain and leave my body for the buzzards!\\

* IdiotBall: Squidward actually grabs it. He tells Patrick to think of him as [=SpongeBob=], to teach him how to have a snowball fight (while [=SpongeBob=] asks to be Mr Krabs). Squidward throws a snowball at Patrick and says, "Now, what are you going to do?" Patrick throws a snowball back at Squidward, who had said not five seconds ago to think of him as [=SpongeBob=]. Squidward asks why Patrick didn't throw it at [=SpongeBob=].

'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' (''Impersonating Mr Krabs'') Argh, it's true, Mr. Squidward. Now get back to work!

* EvenEvilHasStandards: PlayedForLaughs, of course. Smitty Werbenjägermanjensen may be willing to threaten Krabs with bodily harm to get his hat back, but even he's disgusted by Krabs' notion that he and his army are going to ''[[IAmAHumanitarian eat]]'' Mr Krabs.

* AccidentallyRealFakeAddress: Mr. Krabs tries to scare Spongebob out of a priceless soda-drinking hat by [[ScoobyDooHoax posing as the ghost]] of "Smitty Werbenjaegermanjensen". Approximately one nanosecond later, Spongebob announces he's gone and put the hat in the ''actual'' Werbenjaegermanjensen's grave.

* AccidentalTruth: Mr. Krabs sells a soda drink hat to [=SpongeBob=], and then, after finding out that it's apparently worth a million dollars, attempts to scare it off [=SpongeBob=] by telling him the hat is cursed and unless he returns it to the grave of its previous owner, Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen, he himself will be cursed. Imagine his surprise when he finds out that not only is Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen real, but the hat really was his when he was alive.
* AffablyEvil: Smitty Werbenjegermanjensen. He may be willing to sick the entire army of the living dead on Mr. Krabs, but really, all he just wants is his hat back. If Krabs had just given him the hat back, he would've left him alone.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: PlayedForLaughs, of course. Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen may be willing to threaten Krabs with bodily harm to get his hat back, but even he's disgusted by Krabs' notion that he and his army are going to ''[[IAmAHumanitarian eat]]'' Mr Krabs.
--> '''Smitty:''' That's disgusting! We just want the hat back.

* OffscreenTeleportation: Before Mr. Krabs has even finished his ruse to scare [=SpongeBob=] into returning the hat, [=SpongeBob=] walks in behind him, having already buried the hat with Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen. Mr. Krabs is more than a little confused by this.

* RealJokeName: Krabs thinks Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen is a name he just made up on the spot, and is shocked to find out that there really was someone with that name.
* RobbingTheDead: Mr. Krabs is fully prepared to dig up Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen's body and steal the soda drink hat back for $1 million.

* UnpronounceableAlias: [[OverlyLongName Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen]]. It's pronounced "Smitty Werben-yaygrrr-man-jensen".

* TruthInTelevision: Finds of old warehouses/storage units filled with boxes of a 'rare item' have happened before, and usually destroys the value it has in collectors circles.

* DumbassHasAPoint: Patrick telling Squidward that not only do you need a fort during a snowball fight, the fort the latter made was too small, swhich [=SpongeBob=] even agrees with. Needless to say, then were right.

-->'''Mr. Krabs''': Ah, forget it! (''sprints off, then returns'') And you're not beautiful either! (''sprints off again'')\\

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: One of the snow sculptures in the prologue is a mermaid who is topless and flat-chested. Nearby are two fish children each holding a snowball with a grin on their faces.

* InsultBackfire: In a strategy to manipulate [=SpongeBob=] into giving back the hat, Mr. Krabs insults [=SpongeBob=] that hat makes him [[DudeLooksLikeALady look like a girl]]. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint [=SpongeBob=] takes that as a compliment]].

-->'''Mr. Krabs''': Ah, forget it! (''sprits off, then returns'') And you're not beautiful either! (''sprints off again'')\\

--> '''Smitty:''' That's disgusting. We just want the hat back.

* InsultBackfire: In a strategy to manipulate [=SpongeBob=] into giving back the hat, Mr. Krabs insults [=SpongeBob=] that hat makes him look like a girl. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint [=SpongeBob=] takes that as a compliment]].

'''[=SpongeBob=]''': (''close to tears'') I'm not?

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Patrick attempts to make a snowball and keeps failing; eventually making a ''snow double helix''.

** Also, Patrick shows just barely enough knowledge to create a snowblock, a snowpyramid, and even a snowhelix - but not a ''snowball''. He uses snowblocks in his snowball fight.
