  • On August 21, 2020, in honor of the 21st anniversary of this episode, the SpongeBob Twitter page tweeted a picture from this episode with the caption "On this day in 1999: SpongeBob forgot the pickles."[1]
  • It is revealed that the Krusty Krab has a "money back guarantee" written on the Galley Grub, only with a literally microscopic font size.
  • When SpongeBob inadvertently remembers how to make a Krabby Patty before Mr. Krabs, the order of the ingredients mentioned in the beginning is switched around. For example, when making the Crying Johnny, the ketchup and mustard are added immediately following the patty, but when making it before Mr. Krabs, the ketchup and mustard are more towards the top.
  • This is the first of four episodes transcribed as a comic into the Crossover Time/Tokyopop book Krusty Krab Adventures.
  • A clip of the episode was used in the commercial for the Operation Crossover Time edition game.
  • This the second episode where SpongeBob's bed is on the right side of his room and not the left. The first was "Help Wanted."
  • Bubble Bass' order translates to: twenty-four mustard-grilled all-beef patties with double toppings, four extra cheese slices, extra grilled onions, double extra special sauce, all on stacked lightly buttered toast to go.
  • Although SpongeBob lists off the condiments of a Krabby Patty, he does not mention the secret ingredient.
  • Incidental 70 saying, "Hey, SpongeBob's back!" has become a popular Internet meme.
  • The episode's German title is "Gedächtnisverlust," which literally means "Memory Loss."
  • Foreshadowing: Whenever Bubble Bass laughs after claiming SpongeBob forgot the pickles, he has his tongue tucked behind his mouth. This is a clue that he's hiding the pickles under his tongue the whole time.
  • Squidward denying Incidental 5's request for extra salt has also become a meme relating to real life retail employees.
  • The ways SpongeBob messes up the order of ingredients are as follows:
    • Bun, ketchup, mustard.
    • Bun, mustard, ketchup, lettuce, mustard.
    • Bun, mustard, bun.
    • Bun, mustard, bun, ketchup.
    • Bun, mustard, bun, ketchup, shoe, mustard, pan, bun.
  • The order for SpongeBob while trying to go to bed was that he said "Mattress, SpongeBob, mattress, sheet, and pillow," he was close, but the real order was "Mattress, mattress, pillow, SpongeBob, and sheet."
  • This episode marks the first appearance of Bubble Bass, who later becomes a recurring character in the series.
  • Here are the sentences SpongeBob mixes up after his confidence loss and the sentences rearranged next to them.
    • "Mr. Krabs, hello. Do you how do?" ("Hello, Mr. Krabs. How do you do?")
    • "I anything can't do right since because pickles." ("Because I can't do anything right since pickles.")
    • "I think don't ready I'm back to go to work, Mr. Krabs." ("I don't think I'm ready to go back to work, Mr. Krabs.")
    • "I do how do that?" ("How do I do that?")
  • This is the first time "Dancing The Hula" plays. In this episode, it plays in reverse when Mr. Krabs is at SpongeBob's house.
  • Despite SpongeBob says three cheers for Squidward for taking over SpongeBob's duties, they do 4 cheers.
  • In the Polish version of the episode, the customer says "Boo! Squidward stinks!" at the end instead of "Boo! You stink!"[citation needed]
  • The dialogues of Squidward guessing that Bubble Bass would order a tiny, small salad and Bubble Bass stating his order would later be featured as the opening line of the song "Krabby Step," one of the soundtracks of The Crossover Time Movie: Human on the Run.
  • On the November 10, 2006 airing, this episode was paired with "Patty Hype."[2]
  • When SpongeBob is panicking over the "missing" door, the side of the door binding is visible before the camera pans to show Mr. Krabs at it.
  • Five variants of incidentals with alternate color palettes were introduced in this episode, which includes:
    • A purple Candy Person 1 with dark purple striped legs
    • A magenta Candy Person 2 (Chocoberry) with pink melted chocolate until her chest
    • An green Candy Person 13
    • A teal Candy Person 18
    • An Candy Person 26 with a blue bathing suit

Errors[]

  • When SpongeBob is going back to the Krusty Krab, he is seen wearing his hat. When he looks into the spatula, it is gone.
  • When SpongeBob looks into the spatula, it has no slits. However, in the rest of the scene, it does.
  • When SpongeBob says, "I'm right here, Bubble Bass," SpongeBob's footsteps can be heard, even though he does not take any steps at all.
    • This could easily be an added sound effect.
  • When Squidward gets thrown for the first time, he momentarily loses his hat.
  • When SpongeBob opens the Krusty Krab kitchen door, his left eye is colored green.
  • When Mr. Krabs first unrolls the blue mat of Krabby Patty ingredients, the ketchup bottle is significantly smaller than the mustard. After the passage of several days, it is equal to the mustard in size.
    • Mr. Krabs most likely replaced the ketchup bottle.
  • According to a customer, Bubble Bass had someone's car keys under his tongue but however, it was never seen.
  • When SpongeBob says, "I got it!" the onions are replaced with cheese, and in the next scene, the cheese is replaced with onions.
  • The Crying Johnny and the Double Triple Bossy Deluxe have the same burger model, causing confusion.
    • This is because in the next scene after SpongeBob makes the Crying Johnny, it changes its appearance.
  • When Mr. Krabs says "SpongeBob" when he goes to his home, his white undershirt is missing.
  • When Mr. Krabs walks to SpongeBob's house, he does not use his normal walk cycle.
  • When Bubble Bass says, "You lose," Incidental 5 does not have a mouth.
  • In this episode, on the Galley Grub menu, Krabby Patty is incorrectly spelled as "Krabby Pattie."
  • When Bubble Bass runs from the Krusty Krab at the end of the episode, he is panting. However, his mouth is not open.
  • SpongeBob says he cannot make a Double Krabby Patty with the works, but only one patty is used.
  • When Squidward says "Twelve patties on wheat buns!" for a brief second, his neck is layered in front of his mouth.
  • In the credits, Bubble Bass is misspelled as "Bubblebass." This error also occurs on the title card of "Bubble Bass's Tab."
  • During the montage of SpongeBob trying to figure out how to sleep, the ship horn alarm somehow moves its position back and forth between shots on its barrel.
  • When SpongeBob remembers how to make a Krabby Patty, the lighting in the living room repeatedly switches back and forth from day to night.
  • Throughout the episode, whenever the front doors are shown inside the Krusty Krab, the Chum Bucket is missing across the street.
