[edit] Plot
Squidward Tentacles is teaching art class, and can't wait to see his new students. He opens the doors and greets a whole crowd of people, who say "Is this cooking class?" They go to cooking class, and Squidward sees who his real students are. There is only one. SpongeBob SquarePants. Squidward starts off with the basics, and tells him to draw a circle. He draws a perfect circle, and Squidward is shocked. He later tries to teach him how to make marble statues, but it seems that he can do it himself with a bit of encouragement from Squidward. Squidward, out of jealousy, feels sorry for SpongeBob, who goes out of class. SpongeBob feels ashamed of himself and runs away, to a city dump. When the class is over, an art collector called Monty P. Moneybags comes in and says he'll make Squidward famous for the statue (Which SpongeBob actually made). He trips over while transporting it, knocking off its head. He says that Monty will come back tomorrow to get another one that will "really knock your socks off." Squidward rushes down to the dump where SpongeBob went, and gives SpongeBob another chance. However, upon returning to art class, SpongeBob refuses to do anything of decent quality in Squidward's class, and when he constructs a marble statue, his block collapses. Squidward is so angry that he smashes pillars of marble to make a mess. Monty P. Moneybags comes in and says "Who's responsible for this?" Squidward goes to the janitor and says "He is!" He never realized it, but he made a beautiful statue while throwing a fit.
[edit] Quotes
- SpongeBob: Well, first I draw this head, then I erase some of the more detailed features. And 1, 2, 3... A circle!... Thingy.
- Squidward: Okay. First, repeat after me: "I have no talent."
- SpongeBob: "I have no talent."
- Squidward: "Mr. Tentacles has all the talent."
- SpongeBob: "Mr Tentacles has all the talent."
- Squidward: "If I'm lucky, Mr. Tentacle's talent will rub off on me."
- SpongeBob: "If I'm lucky, Mr. Talent...will rub his tentacles...on my...art..." (smiles)
- Squidward: Whatever...
- (At the dump)
- SpongeBob: Really?
- Squidward: Really.
- SpongeBob: Really?
- Squidward: Really.
- SpongeBob: Really?
- Squidward: REALLY!
- Spongebob: Wow!... Really?
- Squidward: (glares at him) Let's go.
- SpongeBob: I got to embrace the marble.
- Squidward: Right!
- SpongeBob: I got to sniff the marble.
- Squidward: Well...okay!
- SpongeBob: I got to lick the marble.
- Squidward: Uhhh............
- SpongeBob: I got to wash the marble, I got to date the marble, I got to '''BE''' the marble!
[edit] Trivia
- The statue in the end is Squidward's greatest work, but told Monty P. Moneybags it wasn't him.
- The statue created by Squidward appears to be better than SpongeBob's, for it looks far more realistic.
- Monty P. Moneybags broke the fourth wall by praising the censorship used on the statue.
- SpongeBob's 'Dump' song is not the first time that Tom Kenny has sung it. It can also heard by Heffer in the "Spring Cleaning" (R-E-C-Y-C-L-E) episode of Rocko's Modern Life.
- SpongeBob's statue is based on Michaelangelo's David.
- It is criticized that the statues have a man partially nude, but covers up the private parts.
- Squidward's hat while bathing in gold and cash had the same pattern as Patrick's pants.
- At first, when SpongeBob is sitting in the desk telling Squidward "Yes Please" (I want to be a good artist), there is only a picture of a hillside on the wall. In another shot a few moments later, a table appears under that picture with other pieces of art on it.
- When Squidward became crazy after SpongeBob not being able to make another statue, you can see the butt of the original statue broken off and bouncing past SpongeBob when he was hiding in his pants.
