"A Day Without Tears" is an episode from Season 7.

Plot

SpongeBob cries too much for a whole day, even in a sad song, and Squidward makes a bet with him. The bet is that he does not cry for a whole day, until midnight. SpongeBob accepts the bet. Throughout the bet, Squidward wants SpongeBob to cry so he can lose, but he doesn't cry for a whole day. When the midnight arrives, his tears can't hold back anymore and he cries too much in various places: the Bikini Bottom, Mr. Krabs' office and Patrick's house. At the end, Squidward has to spend the night at SpongeBob's house.

Trivia

This is the second appearance of the Bikini Bottom Choir; the first was in Choir Boys.
Somehow, the boat that the choir singers are on moves by itself.
7 times of showing the Mermaid Man & Barnacle Boy show isn't even that big of a deal anyway, so why would SpongeBob almost begin to cry over that?
In the beginning of the episode, SpongeBob slept in his underwear, but if you look closely, you'll see him wearing a pajama hat.
When SpongeBob eats his cereal, he listens to a song called "Sad Song" by Lionel Fishy, a parody of Lionel Richie.
The song Squidward played on his clarinet was called 'Hearts and Flowers', which sounds like a happy song in reality, but was really sad.
This episode is similar to Funny Pants.
When the dad and the son are playing catch, the background house is SpongeBob's Grandma's house.
How can you cry this much in a day?
Why would someone interveiw someone who didn't get what he wanted for his birthday?
Lionel Fishy is a reference to Lionel Richie.
