Plot

Squidward is unusually happy until a baby drools on his clarinet, which he was going to use clarinet recital auditions after work. He demands a safe place to put belongings while working at the Krusty Krab. So Mr. Krabs gives him his rusty old locker from the Navy to share with SpongeBob. SpongeBob througholy cleans and redecorates the inside of the locker like a library, but Squidward cannot find his clarinet because the place where the catalog card does not have it there. Soon he finds a stage and behind it, he discovers a world that is made of clarinets. Squidward must find SpongeBob with his stolen clarinet, only to meet the Clarinetland Bird. The bird eats Squidward, and he has to go through a series of events in its stomach, including being inside a SpongeBob-themed pinball game Patrick is playing, to finally get his clarinet and get out. Squidward gets out of the locker and stuffs SpongeBob in it. He throws the locker into a bus going far far away. But when Squidward is auditioning, he opens his clarinet carrying case and SpongeBob pops out. Then Squidward ran away as the episode ends. SpongeBob then holds up Squidward's clarinet and says he just wanted to give it to him.

Trivia/Goofs

The title is a pun on Alice in Wonderland.
When Squidward and SpongeBob go through the locker, through the room of shelves, and into Clarinetland, it is similar to "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe", when the children have to pass through the wardrobe to get into Narnia.
Somehow, only the bird's head is shown, and apparently it is still able to eat Squidward.
Oddly, the episode has little to do with Clarinetland.

The photographer/film director from Picture Day and Model Sponge appears for the third time.
The Clarinetland Bird is just a giant Bald Eagle head sticking out of the ground.
The Clarinetland Bird is a possible spoof of the Red Queen from Alice in Wonderland.
