When Squidward leaves the Krusty Krab as its about to close, SpongeBob asks him if he could visit him. Squidward angrily declines, making him upset as he's never visited him and begs him to come for the rest of the day. The next day, SpongeBob asks him again, only for Squidward to tell him he wouldn't leave the comfort of his home to visit him.

SpongeBob asks Patrick at his house if Squidward's ever visited him. He says he came once to take back something he borrowed, and tells SpongeBob he needs to borrow something from Squidward so he'll have to visit him. Later, Squidward is cooking, when he accidentally drops his pepper onto his plant due to SpongeBob doing home renovation. When he goes to get his vacuum, it turns out SpongeBob has "borrowed" it. He calls SpongeBob to ask why he "borrowed" his vacuum cleaner and that he'll be over there in 20 minutes.

He puts his casserole in his oven and walks over to SpongeBob's house. When he enters, it turns out SpongeBob has made his living room look exactly like Squidward's. He tries to find his vacuum, while seeing that SpongeBob has replicated all the rooms in his house. While in the bathroom, when Squidward sees that SpongeBob knew he had rash cream, he suddenly shows up, scaring him and making him slip on the rash cream several times until eventually knocking himself out.

He wakes up downstairs and lies to SpongeBob that he has to use his bathroom again so he can find his vacuum. He finds his vacuum in SpongeBob's replica gallery room in the closet. After retrieving it, he gets out of the house, only to realize his house was burned down caused by him leaving his casserole in the oven too long. SpongeBob invites him to stay at his house, which makes him pass out in shock. At night, Squidward is sleeping at the replica home while SpongeBob and Gary sleep on the floor which used to be Squidward's house.

YMMV / SpongeBob SquarePants: Squid's Visit / To SquarePants Or Not To SquarePants

Edit locked.

• Designated Hero : Assuming we’re supposed to view SpongeBob as the hero in this, his goal amounts to trying to force Squidward to visit him by stealing from him and renovating his entire home to be an exact copy of Squidward’s, which drives the poor octopus to the brink of insanity by the end. He does offer Squidward a place to stay after the latter’s home gets burned to the ground, but that does little to change the fact that SpongeBob in this episode not only comes across as an entitled and inconsiderate Manchild but also a disturbed Stalker without a Crush .
• Nightmare Fuel : "Squid's Visit" has a somewhat creepy premise, with SpongeBob making his entire house look exactly like Squidward's down to every minor detail. But the real creepy parts are when SpongeBob is heavily breathing with a crazed look while staring at Squidward, and at the end when Squid's house burns down, he then gets a very weird looking expression, and then has a fantasy of him having tea with his vacuum and he then says "Yes, I'd love another spot of tea, Mr. Vacuum Cleaner!" and "care for some casserole?" in an eerie tone underscored by unsettling background music, and then he starts laughing insanely with his eye-twitching while the screen zooms in on his face.
• Never Live It Down : Along with the likes of "Choir Boys" and "Boating Buddies", this is one episode that's often brought up by people who insist that SpongeBob is a Designated Hero who solely exists to make Squidward miserable and drive him to the brink.
• Squidward, because, as he comes out from SpongeBob's pineapple house, Squidward found his house vapourized , due to the fire. It was the casserole that was in the oven, and he screamed at SpongeBob for forcing him to stay so long in his house burned down. However, SpongeBob didn't feel guilty about the incident. Then SpongeBob urge Squidward into living at his house until Squidward's house gets rebuilt, this cause Squidward to go into a catatonic state . Suddenly goes into a state of delusion by imagining Squidward having tea with his vaccum , then he crazily laughs while holding the burnt casserole. Squidward began to get light-headed, then faints, causing SpongeBob to shout his name .
• SpongeBob to a lesser extent. For all the trouble he ended up causing, he pretty much only meant it to be one of his usual attempts at getting Squidward to be his friend, sounded genuinely worried when he fainted, and seemed perfectly okay with sleeping out in the burnt remains (even if it's just meant as Rule of Funny ).
• What Do You Mean, It's for Kids? : SpongeBob really wants Squidward to come visit him, but of course Squidward wants nothing to do with him. So SpongeBob "borrows" Squidward's vacuum cleaner so he has no choice but to come visit, and he finds that SpongeBob has redesigned the inside of his house as an exact replica of Squidward's, down to the smallest details. Squidward is understandably freaked out by this, and spends so long looking for his vacuum cleaner that his own house burns down because he left his oven on. Then SpongeBob offers for Squidward to come live with him until his house gets rebuilt, which mentally destroys Squidward. This kind of plot would be perfect for a horror movie or The Twilight Zone , not a children's cartoon show. Though Squidward gets the last laugh in the end, when he forces SpongeBob to sleep in the burnt out wreckage.

• [Setting starts with clouds]
• French Narrator: Ah. Another quiet day in Bikini Bottom. But it wasn't always this way. Once, it was horrible. [Stock footage of natural disasters is shown. Lightning strikes. Arecaceae trees are blowing in the wind. A bridge wobbles. People try to get a pig across in a flood. Cut to SpongeBob's house in rain] The unimaginable happened. One day, SpongeBob SquarePants... changed his pants! [stock footage of a lady screaming in terror is shown] I remember it as if it were yesterday. But, in fact, it happened three days ago. [calendar rewinds to three days ago. SpongeBob carries a load of his pants and puts them in the washing machine. Then walks up to Gary]
• SpongeBob: It's laundry day, Gary! [takes off Gary's shell, revealing his buttocks] Oops. [puts Gary's shell back on then takes it off again, revealing underwear]
• Gary: [angrily crawls off] Meow.
• SpongeBob: [puts the shell in the washer, closes the lid, and turns it on] Now to finish the day's chores. [vacuums, washes dishes, and dusts the TV. The phone rings] Hello?
• Patrick: Hello. Uh, may I speak with SpongeBob, uh, uh... [looks at his hand and reads what's on it] ...Squaaa...re...Paaaaants?
• SpongeBob: Mm, speaking.
• Patrick: Hey, hey. You want to hear how long I can do this for? [monotone spluttering]
• SpongeBob: Actually, Patrick, I'm kind of busy. Can it wait?
• Patrick: [still going] No. [continues. SpongeBob sighs]
• French Narrator: Much later... [We hear Patrick making all the sound effects over phone and SpongeBob being bored. Gary slithers away]
• SpongeBob: Gary, go check on the laundry in the dryer.
• Gary: Meow, meow. [puts his shell back on and starts the dryer, which has all the square pants in it. Gary goes through the pet door]
• French Narrator: Much much later... [SpongeBob's just sitting there on his chair and Patrick is done making all the sound effects]
• Patrick: A pretty long time. Huh?
• SpongeBob: Yeah, Patrick. [goes into the laundry room] Gary? [opens the dryer and gasps. All his pants are tiny] They've shrunk! [puts a pair of pants on each leg, but they're too small] I'm gonna need to get new pants.
• [Bubble transition to the Bikini Bottom Mall]
• Clerk: I'm sorry, Mr. SpongeBob, but we're not expecting another shipment of square pants for months.
• SpongeBob: Oh. [tries on some different pairs of pants] No. Nope. Ew, not these. Uh-uh. [notices a round pair of pants. Tries them on and they are a tight fit] Whoa, these pants hug my body better than my own mother!
• [Bubble transition to SpongeBob going out for a walk. He walks past Patrick]
• SpongeBob: Hey, Patrick! Notice anything different? Pose. Pose. Pose. Pose.
• Patrick: Do I know you?
• SpongeBob: [laughs] It's me, SpongeBob.
• Patrick: SpongeBob? [looks at the drawing on his hand that says 'SquarePants'] No, you're not! SpongeBob has square pants. Now, leave me alone, you mysterious stranger.
• [Bubble transition]
• SpongeBob: Patrick is so full of tartar sauce. I'm still me. It's just a pair of pants. It's not like my friends won't recognize me.
• Sandy: Well, howdy, stranger! I don't recognize you in those newfangled dungarees. [wolf whistles] You must be SpongeBob FancyPants. Clothes really do make the man!
• SpongeBob: Sandy didn't recognize me either. These pants are more powerful than I thought. Course it was just Sandy, and Neptune knows what goes on inside a squirrel's head. [a real squirrel is shown looking left to right] Eww. But I know my best buddy Squidward will recognize me. We have been through so much together.
• [Bubble transition to SpongeBob walking up to Squidward's house, humming a tune]
• Squidward: Oh, no. It's that little yellow freak.
• SpongeBob: Hi, Squidward!
• Squidward: Just ignore him. Maybe he'll go away.
• SpongeBob: Oh, Squidward! Guess who?
• Squidward: Do I know you?
• SpongeBob: Oh, sure you do. It's me, SpongeBob... SquarePants.
• Squidward: Never seen you before in my life.
• SpongeBob: Well, maybe these pictures of us together will jog your memory. [picture of Squidward running away from SpongeBob is shown] Me and you at my birthday party. [picture of Squidward sleeping at work] You and me at work. [picture of Squidward sleeping in his bed] That little slumber party we had last week. [picture of Squidward showering with the curtain closed] I forgot when this was taken.
• Squidward: Is that supposed to be you? [SpongeBob sighs and walks away] I can't believe it. He actually left. [laughs]
• SpongeBob: Squidward didn't know me either. It's like we'd never met. Maybe Patrick is right. [can't get in his door] Oh no, it's locked. [knocks on door] Gary! Hey, Gary! Can you open the door?! I left my keys in my other pants. [Patrick opens the door]
• Patrick: Hello. Can I help you?
• SpongeBob: Patrick, it's me, SpongeBob.
• Patrick: Oh, right. You're that round pants fellow.
• SpongeBob: Patrick, what are you doing in my house?
• Patrick: Your house? This house belongs to SpongeBob SquarePants. At least it did before he left us. [blows nose] I wish I could see him one last time. [closes the door]
• SpongeBob: Oh, barnacles! I guess I'm not 'SpongeBob SquarePants' anymore. I'll have to start all over again.
• [Bubble transition to the Krusty Krab, where SpongeBob is talking to Squidward]
• SpongeBob: Hello, sir. I'd like an application, please. My name is SpongeBob Sq... [coughs and grunts] Sorry, I'm a little... [coughs more] I'm a little... [grunts] Sorry, I'm a little nervous. My name is SpongeBob... Round Pants. And I would like to seek employment from this eating establishment. [Squidward punches himself] Oh, dear! Are you okay, Mr. Cashier? Ooh! [picks up a stack of papers] Here are the applications.
• [Bubble transition to SpongeBob filling out these applications.]
• SpongeBob: Let's see here. "Name." [writes] SpongeBob RoundPants. Well, this is going well. [to Squidward] Hey, Mr. Cashier, looks like we're gonna be coworkers! [Squidward groans] Question two. "Have you ever been convicted of a felony?" Hmm, what's a felony?
• Squidward: Being too darn happy all the time!
• SpongeBob: Oh, yeah! Lots and lots of felonies.
• Squidward: Heh. Moron.
• Mr. Krabs: What's going on here?!
• SpongeBob: I'm filling out an application.
• Mr. Krabs: Get to work.
• SpongeBob: [gasps] Then I got the job?!
• Mr. Krabs: [annoyed] Oh boy.
• SpongeBob: My first day on the job. I am so excited. Woo-hoo!
• Squidward: Whatever.
• SpongeBob: [panting] You've worked here a long time. Why don't you show this rookie the ropes?
• Squidward: Oh, I'd love to.
• SpongeBob: Yayyy! [grabs Squidward]
• Squidward: What...no! Don't... [gets dragged into the kitchen]
• SpongeBob: So what do I do first? [pen and notepad in hand]
• Squidward: [groans] Fine. Take a Krabby Patty and put it on the grill. [does so]
• SpongeBob: Shouldn't you watch it?
• Squidward: Why? I don't think it's going anywhere.
• SpongeBob: Ooh, very zen. [Krabby Patty burns] What next, oh, oracle of Krabby wisdom?
• Squidward: I'm going to the bathroom.
• SpongeBob: Hmm, I'll go, too. [walks into the stall next to Squidward] How's it going in there, boss?
• Squidward: Um... fine.
• SpongeBob: [writes] Going fine. [Squidward starts snoring] Oh, Mr. Squidward... [under Squidward's stall. Squidward screams] Whatcha reading? [Squidward walks out of the bathroom and SpongeBob follows, writing stuff down] Bathroom break. Check.
• Squidward: Here's the slop you ordered. [tosses tray of food down on customer's table] Enjoy. If you can choke it down. [laughs]
• SpongeBob: [writes] Be rude to customers and insult food. Nasally laugh.
• [Bubble transition to Squidward throwing a bag of trash at the dumpster out back. He breaks the bag open. SpongeBob does the same. Squidward pats SpongeBob on the head. Bubble transition]
• Customer: Can I get a Krabby Patty Combo?
• Squidward: No.
• Customer: How about a Double Krabby?
• SpongeBob: No.
• Customer: Can I get a Triple Patty with cheese?
• SpongeBob: [nudging Squidward] Oh I think you've had way too many of those. [both laugh like Squidward as the customer walks off angry. Cut to another trash bag broken being thrown at the dumpster. SpongeBob tosses a tray on a customers table, spilling the drinks on the floor]
• Squidward: Taught him everything he knows. [more bags of trash being broken and customers getting burnt food or food thrown at them. SpongeBob and Squidward are snoring the bathroom while customers are waiting to use the stalls. Customers are clamoring in line while SpongeBob and Squidward are snoring at the cash register as Mr. Krabs enters]
• Mr. Krabs: [angry] What are you two doing?! Get to work! I'm used to Squidward sleeping on the job, but I expect more from you, Mr. SquarePants.
• SpongeBob: I am not SpongeBob SquarePants, Mr. Krabs.
• Mr. Krabs: What in the name of Davy Jones are you talking about?
• SpongeBob: I mean, do these pants look square to you? They're round.
• Mr. Krabs: Yeah, so?
• SpongeBob: I can't be SpongeBob SquarePants with round pants.
• Mr. Krabs: Who told you that?
• SpongeBob: Patrick. [cuts to Patrick about to eat but puts his Krabby Patty down as he realizes his error.]
• Mr. Krabs: Well, why don't you just take them off?
• [Bubble transition to SpongeBob bringing out a Krabby Patty in his underwear.]
• SpongeBob: Order up, Squidward!
• Sandy: Well well, if it isn't SpongeBob UnderPants! [chuckles. SpongeBob notices he's in his underwear and screams as the episode ends.]
