Top 10 Episode Ideas for the SpongeBob Series Finale
I am no trying to make you sad, but SpongeBob is not going to last forever. All good things come to an end at sometime. In fact, there have been rumors that SpongeBob is going to end around 2019 (does not mean it will be in 2019). For this reason, I decided to come up with a list of ideas for the SpongeBob series finale. You'll like some of the ideas listed below, and you won't like some of the other ideas.If you do not like any of the ideas on this list, then I'm sorry.
For the finale, I think SpongeBob should finally get his boating license. Plankton could give up trying to steal the formula, and he and Mr. Krabs could become friends again. They could then work together at the Krusty Krab and create chummy patties, which everyone likes.
SpongeBob could have another birthday episode, but better. In this version, he finally quits his job after realizing how horribly Mr. Krabs treats him. SpongeBob could then expose Mr. Krabs for his secret ingredient: Krab cannibalism! In the end, Plankton finally gets the Krusty Krab's secret formula for real.
Nice! That would be emotional and awesome! Maybe the end could even have everyone walking to the sunset to watch it. This reminds me of the Season 1 finale of NWR Origins made by Thomas1Edward2Henry3.
Yeah, this is a great idea! I'm surprised they haven't made this one yet.
The upcoming movie explains that. It takes place in a summer camp.
SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward could reflect on the fun times they've had. Afterward, they could all go to college together.
Plankton successfully steals the Krabby Patty formula, and the Chum Bucket starts selling Krabby Patties for real. Mr. Krabs doesn't notice at first because he's too busy. Eventually, he realizes that the Chum Bucket has just as many customers as the Krusty Krab. After reflecting on how selfish and mean he's been to Plankton, Mr. Krabs decides to leave Plankton alone.
This could be a cool ending because everyone wins in the end, especially Plankton.
SpongeBob gets his boating license for real and never loses it because his driving skills have drastically improved. Mrs. Puff would then become proud of SpongeBob.
The entire SpongeBob SquarePants series was just a book written by Mrs. SquarePants (SpongeBob's mom). The characters and stories were all fictional. The episode would start like a regular SpongeBob episode, but in the last five minutes, we learn that it was all just a story from SpongeBob's mom's book.
Actually, in Season 12, it already happened. It was great.
I think SpongeBob dying is a good way to end the series.
It would be pretty cool if it all came full circle. SpongeBob starts his journey by getting a job at the Krusty Krab, and the series ends with Mr. Krabs retiring. But maybe instead of SpongeBob taking over, the Krusty Krab could close down, and everyone would just move on now that that chapter of their lives is over.
That does happen in the movie. I was surprised it didn't stick.
That did happen, but it's only a play, and I'll never tell ya. - Peter Griffin
I actually have an idea of how this would play out:
Mr. Krabs: Everyone, I have something to tell you. I believe you're ready to learn... the Krabby Patty secret formula.
Everyone: *gasps*
Plankton: Yes! *everyone looks at him* What? It's just natural curiosity.
Mr. Krabs: Anyway, the Krabby Patty secret formula is... nothing.
Plankton: WHAT?! I failed millions of times, only to find out that it doesn't exist?
This would be a 44-minute long special where Plankton attacks Bikini Bottom, similar to Battle for Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob would then unite all the popular Nickelodeon shows (e.g., Invader Zim, CatDog, The Fairly OddParents, Penguins of Madagascar, etc.) to stop Plankton. After a long battle, SpongeBob wins, and Plankton is arrested. To prevent Plankton from attacking again, the judge sentences him to death row.
On the day of his execution, Plankton is crushed to death by Mr. Krabs' safe. After Plankton's death, Karen is forced into a factory reset, making her forget everything about her time with Plankton. I know it sounds morbid, but a series usually ends with the main antagonist dead.
Following Plankton's death, a montage shows all the main characters living happier lives now that Plankton is no longer terrorizing them. SpongeBob marries Sandy and finally gets his driver's license. Squidward becomes famous for his music. Mr. Krabs finally becomes the richest man in Bikini Bottom due to his successful restaurant. Pearl becomes the most popular girl in high school. Patrick and SpongeBob become jellyfishing champions. Mrs. Puff is relieved that SpongeBob finally passed his driving exam. Gary and Spot become friends, and Karen marries an ATM like E.M.I.L.P. predicted in Single Cell Anniversary.
I've heard a couple of theories about Pearl's mom, but they would be inappropriate for an episode. Instead, I think Pearl's mom lost her daughter in a tragic accident but believes Pearl didn't survive. Pearl, however, was found and sent to the Bikini Bottom Nursery Home. Mr. Krabs, wanting someone to take over his business when he retires, visits the nursery home, where he finds a cute little baby whale. He chooses her and names her Pearl.
In the present day, Pearl's biological mom discovers that her daughter is still alive and begins searching for her. She eventually finds Pearl and introduces herself to Mr. Krabs. Pearl's mom wants to adopt Pearl, but the decision is ultimately up to Pearl. Pearl decides to leave, thinking Mr. Krabs loves money more than her and knowing she's next in line to run the Krusty Krab.
Both Krabs and Pearl have flashbacks of the times they shared, like when Krabs taught her how to ride a bike. Pearl has a change of heart and wants to stay with Krabs, but her biological mom won't allow it. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob what happened, and SpongeBob and the gang do everything they can to help get Pearl back. It works, and Pearl and Mr. Krabs share a touching reunion. Mr. Krabs grants Pearl's mom visitation rights, and they all live happily ever after.
This could work for a spinoff, but not as the ending. Do you really want Mr. Krabs as a tyrannical crony capitalist to close out the show?
It turns out Mr. Krabs was the villain all along, and Plankton teams up with SpongeBob to stop him.
No. This trope is one of the worst imaginable in television, and I would hate to see SpongeBob suddenly wake up saying, "Oh thank gosh it was all a dream!" That would possibly be the most disappointing ending ever.
SpongeBob wakes up and finds that he, along with all the other characters, is actually human.
No! We are not having another series finale where the characters are killed off, like the finale of Dinosaurs!
Karen gets tired of Plankton's repeated failures to steal the formula, so she decides to steal it herself. But before doing so, Plankton would have to shrink her.
