Gary Can't Reach

Gary Can't Reach is episode 2a of Life of Gary.

Synopsis
Gary is hungry, so he walks outside to see if Patrick has left any food scraps. He finds some, but PatrIck gets to them first. He then checks Squidward's kelp garden, but later remembers that he ate that yesterday. He then goes back to the pineapple and sees a high cupboard open, with a mountain of Snail Bites. Gary feels he is in heaven, until when he tries to get them he can't reach. To get up he jumps, then tightropes, barrel rolls, uses a snake to grab, uses a shark to grab, uses a lasso, tries to blow a bubble gum bubble up, uses a hair dryer to dry it out, which disintegrates it. He cries until SpongeBob gets home with a new bag.

Trivia/Goofs

 * This episode was the first appearance of Patrick.
 * At the lasso scene, you can see a pink dot on the screen for a frame if you look close enough,
 * This episode was actually the first episode to air in the UK because of a broadcasting error. Thus, Gary Home Alone aired on it's airdate.
 * The running gag of the episode is that Gary's shell keeps breaking.
