Editing Squidward Tentacles (section)

=== Season 2 ===
*'''Squid's Day Off''': When Squidward was put in charge of the Krusty Krab after Mr. Krabs got injured on the job, he lies to SpongeBob about having important errands to run so he can have a real day off and get away from work. However, every time he attempts to relax at home, he suffers hallucinations of SpongeBob wreaking havoc on the restaurant that makes him go into a mental breakdown. In a final attempt to have his day off, he retorts to welding up his front door while being in the brink of insanity. However, his hallucinations get the best of him once again when he believes that SpongeBob left the Krusty Krab to check on him to see if he's actually doing errands. Driven mad with total insanity, Squidward runs out of his house and heads back to the restaurant, completely naked from his bath. By the time the mentally deranged cephalopod arrives, he finds that SpongeBob was "already" there - as he never left all that time. As he slowly winds down and regains his composure, he finally relents that he's finished with his errands, just as the remaining bubbles pop beneath him and leave him naked. SpongeBob gives him his clothes for him to wear. It turns out that Mr. Krabs didn't give a thought of switching the closed sign to open, which was the reason why the restaurant wasn't getting any customers in the first place. SpongeBob laughs at the mistake since it felt like they could've taken a whole day off, but Squidward, on the other hand, is overwhelmed with this revelation as his nose falls off and deflates his head in annoyance.
*'''Bubble Buddy''': To get revenge on SpongeBob for making him provide "excellent service" for Bubble Buddy at the Krusty Krab, he tricks Mr. Krabs into going against SpongeBob and forms an angry mob in order to pop the bubble (aka murder Bubble Buddy). When the townsfolk corner SpongeBob, he tries to get them to change their minds about Bubble Buddy about friendship. But it wasn't enough for them to change their minds as they throw SpongeBob aside and Squidward proceeds to go pop Bubble Buddy so he can go home and play his clarinet. However, much to everybody's surprise, including Squidward himself, Bubble Buddy miraculously comes to life and stops the grouchy cephalopod from popping him. Bubble Buddy leaves SpongeBob in a bubble taxi. The majority of the crowd are satisfied and leave as well. SpongeBob happily cries for his friend blowing up so fast before leaving in a flurry of bubbles. All but one of them pop, and Squidward, left behind in a daze, awkwardly greets it.
*'''Dying for Pie''': On Employee Brotherhood Day, Squidward was assigned to make a special gift for SpongeBob. However, it was a task that was too taxing for the lazy old cephalopod to do. He finds a group of pirates boarding a bag of pies onto their ship. So, he buys a pie from them with the cost of $25, thinking the pastry was harmless. He shows the pie to Mr. Krabs and lets him have a taste. But as he does so, they soon discover the pie's explosive nature when some of it explodes part of his office. Squidward frantically explains the situation to Mr. Krabs and goes to remove the bomb-infested pastry from the restaurant, only to discover that SpongeBob had somehow eaten it. This made Squidward even more worried when Mr. Krabs tells him that when the pie hits SpongeBob's lower intestine, he'll die along with it until sunset. Determined to atone for what he's done to SpongeBob, Squidward decides to come up with a plan to make the little square dude's final hours the most fun he has ever had, and it'll be filled with love. He goes with SpongeBob to do fun things with him but does it with a long list. The activities include greeting everyone in town, greeting everyone in town again with Squidward in a salmon suit, telling knock-knock jokes, and performing open heart surgery. The final activity is watching the sunset with Squidward. Remembering Mr. Krabs' warning about SpongeBob's death, Squidward nervously agrees to participate. As they watch the sunset, Squidward becomes more nervous than ever. Just as the sun passed over the horizon, the bomb explodes and Squidward cries in despair, thankful that he was able to make his last hours meaningful. However, it turns out that SpongeBob didn't die from the supposed explosion as Mr. Krabs predicted. He is still alive and unharmed and was actually blowing bubble bombs. Squidward is bewildered at this. But instead of feeling relieved that he's still alive, he angrily berates SpongeBob that he was supposed to explode after eating the pie. At first, SpongeBob is confused, but then he remembers the pie that he was saving in his back pocket for them to share, while Squidward realizes he did everything for nothing. SpongeBob goes to share the pie, but trips over a rock and slams the pie in Squidward's face, making the bomb inside explode and destroy all of Bikini Bottom. Luckily, he still survived the explosion.
*'''Patty Hype''': He and Mr. Krabs cruelly made fun of SpongeBob's idea of Pretty Patties. But while Mr. Krabs gets his punishment, Squidward did not get his.
*'''Grandma's Kisses:''' Another one of Squidward's most horrible traits is that he gloats and laughs at anyone whom he deems beneath him. And that was also demonstrated in this episode. Squidward and the customers at the Krusty Krab ruthlessly tease SpongeBob for having a kissing mark on his forehead given by his grandmother. At the end of the episode, it is shown that they have been spying on SpongeBob with his grandma through her house's window. (Important message: Kids, don't let this dumb adult (Squidward) fool you. It's perfectly okay to get hugs and kisses from your grandparents.)
*'''Christmas Who?''': After Sandy told SpongeBob the joys of Christmas, he decides to spread some of the holiday cheer all over Bikini Bottom. Everyone including Mr. Krabs, Patrick, Plankton, and Gary are moved by this. All except for the grinchy, Ebenezer Scrooge-like cephalopod, Squidward. The grumpy cephalopod thought SpongeBob was going around spreading lies and hoaxes about the glorious day when all he was doing was spreading joy and holiday cheer to everybody. On Christmas Eve, SpongeBob and the townsfolk gathered and waited for Santa to come. However, he did not arrive the following morning, much to everyone's disappointment (probably because Sandy forgot to mention that Santa only comes when everyone is asleep). Squidward comes out to cruelly humiliate the depressed SpongeBob and laugh in his face. However, in the midst of his shame, SpongeBob still gives Squidward a thoughtful gift: a wooden clarinet so he wouldn't feel left out in the holidays. Squidward is touched by this kind gesture and starts to feel bad for the way he treated SpongeBob. It began to dawn on him that SpongeBob was only trying to spread some cheer to people and realized that his grouchy attitude had ruined Christmas for everyone. To atone for his nasty behavior, Squidward dresses up as Santa Claus and generously gives away his possessions to other people to make SpongeBob happy, bringing the Christmas spirit back to Bikini Bottom in the process.
*'''Pressure''': He joins SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs into mocking Sandy just to prove that Sea Creatures are more superior than Land Creatures. However, when they were challenged into going up on land, karma comes to them when they were attacked by seagulls. Luckily, they were all saved by Sandy, and they made amends with her in the end.
*'''Graveyard Shift''': He cruelly plays a nasty joke on SpongeBob by telling a scary story of the Hash-Slinging Slasher in order to get him to stop annoying him. Luckily, as the night shift goes on, the joke backfires on him as everything he said in his story is played out for real. He literally becomes scared when the supposedly real Hash-Slinging Slasher comes in and approaches the cash register. But it turns out to be a regular customer who is looking for a job application. And the spatula, whom they thought was a replacement for his supposed severed hand, was just a regular spatula being held by his fully intact hand under his sleeve. The phone call he made was actually him, but he hung up due to his nervousness.
*'''Artist Unknown''': Another one of Squidward's worst traits ever is that he stupidly and obnoxiously denigrates somebody else's talents. He does it mostly out of jealousy and envy when his own talents are deemed inferior. Throughout this episode while being hired as an art teacher, he rudely denigrates SpongeBob's artistic talents and views them as childish nonsense. When SpongeBob makes a sculpture that's more beautiful, Squidward is amazed at first. But out of jealousy, he scoffs at SpongeBob's masterpiece and refuses to acknowledge his talent. SpongeBob is emotionally hurt and throws himself in the dumpster in disappointment. This narcissistic attitude Squidward demonstrated in this whole episode clearly shows how much he completely lacks the humility in his soul. Soon, a famous art collector named Monty P. Moneybags came to collect some rare art pieces for his collection in the Bikini Bottom Museum. He was amazed by SpongeBob's sculpture and demands to know who's the artist. Squidward, seeing the perfect opportunity for fame and glory, selfishly takes the credit for SpongeBob's work and declares himself to be responsible. They attempt to take the sculpture to the museum, but accidentally shatter the head piece. Monty assures him that he can make another one and they will come back the following day. Squidward, desperate to have SpongeBob create another sculpture, rushes to the dump and convinces the depressed SpongeBob to return. However, much to Squidward's chagrin, SpongeBob has taken his prior lessons far too literally and fails to create anything of decent quality. When he tries to create another sculpture, it only reduces to a pile of rubble. This causes Squidward to go insane with anger and frustration. He then destroys the art classroom and ravages many of the art pieces in a fit of rage. SpongeBob concluded that his artistic "triumph" was too much for Squidward to handle and rushes back to the dump. As Squidward is about to stomp out, Monty arrives and sees the mess. He asks who's responsible for the mess, which Squidward retorts by passing the blame onto the janitor. He angrily quits his job as an art teacher and leaves. But unknown to Squidward, he created a much beautiful and bigger sculpture than SpongeBob's, leaving Monty to praise the janitor for his "artistic work." (which he didn't do)
*'''Squid on Strike''': Fed up with Mr. Krabs' greedy, cheapskate behavior, Squidward decides to go on strike and manages to convince SpongeBob to do the same. However, there isn't much wrong here as his actions were justified when Squidward was exercising his rights and trying to bring to light something he sees as an injustice. However, his ultimate downfall and chagrin is when he finally gets SpongeBob to literally embrace the strike. Inspired by Squidward's dedication, SpongeBob goes and dismantle the Krusty Krab entirely overnight right when they two employees were about to have their demands met. Squidward has no one to blame but himself for having SpongeBob cause the dismantlement of the Krusty Krab. All because he made a huge mistake in letting his speech flow through the chipper, yellow sponge's head and for getting him to embrace their so-called strike. So, Squidward's strike in an attempt to have their demands met by Mr. Krabs were all but in vain.
