Plot
SpongeBob and Patrick are Jellyfishing in Jellyfish fields until Patrick falls into the Brain Coral Fields. SpongeBob sees what is wrong and places Patrick’s head back on and he is the entire sudden smart. This eventually tears their friendship apart because they both want to do different things. Patrick tries to help people such as Sandy and Squidward but Patrick becomes more hated. Eventually, Patrick tells SpongeBob that they have to go separate ways and both are sad...
Then Patrick wants to try to become friends with SpongeBob again by using science. This is unsuccessful and then Patrick tells SpongeBob to tell him when the fun went away. So Patrick jumped off the cliff into Brain Coral fields and duplicates his actions. SpongeBob looks around for Patrick’s head and they find a Brain Coral Field where brain coral lies. SpongeBob gets Patricks real head and Patrick is back to normal!
Trivia/Goofs
- Real brain coral is actually shaped like brains and not cones.
- The first few times this episode was shown, it had scrolling captions. This was later changed.
- Smart Patrick is so upset by not understanding SpongeBob's concept of fun that he makes a solution that makes his hair grow, just so that he can pull it out in his anger. This is ironically the answer to Squidward's dream to have hair.
- Patrick calls SpongeBob "Robert", which indicates that SpongeBob's real name may be SpongeRobert SquarePants (longer version of Bob). However, Robert as his full name is not confirmed by Hillenburg. Also, in the scene where Patrick is in Sandy's Treedome, Patrick calls her "Sandra", which indicates that Sandy's real name may be Sandra Cheeks (longer version of Sandy). However, Sandra as her full name is not confirmed by Hillenburg. Patrick may be calling them by their "full" names just to sound smart, though. If this is true, than SpongeRobert and Sandra have no middle names.
- SpongeBob and Patrick both have a talent for belch-talking.
Reception
This episode received generally positive reviews, and ranked #6 at Best 10 Ever, making it the sixth most well-received episode of SpongeBob SquarePants. It is only behind Ghost Host for the #5 place. It pretty much seems that the idea of Patrick being both unintelligent and intelligent (just like Big Pink Loser) is a good idea for SpongeBob SquarePants.
