Con Man

"Heh! A couple of mediocre salesmen if ya ask me."

The Con Man is a devious fish seen in the episode Chocolate With Nuts. He cons SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star three times in the episode. In his first encounter with them, the Con Man sold SpongeBob and Patrick candy bar bags, in which they bought lots. At the next house, the Con Man was back again and sold them "candy bar bag carrying bags" in which they bought 20, but only 2 were seen. It was worthless but the Con Man got even more money. Then when SpongeBob and Patrick were pretending to be seriously injured, they go to a house in which the Con Man also lives in. He opens the door and tells the boys about his injuries. He claims that he has Glass Bones, Paper Skin and his heart attacks put him asleep, these are all untrue, and he gets SpongeBob and Patrick to buy all of his Chocolate Bars. After SpongeBob and Patrick leave, he takes off all of the technical equipment and suits and he is fully victorious in conning them.

The Con Man makes another appearance in 20,000 Patties Under the Sea. In this episode he was seen with a woman, probably his wife. Once again, he tricked them without even trying. SpongeBob and Patrick paid the Con Man to buy Krabby Patties, he doesn't like potatoes on his Krabby Patty.
