No Weenies Allowed - Ah, this one's an old favorite of mine. SpongeBob tries to get into the Salty Spittoon, which I assume is a fight club, but Reg says that he can't go in because he's not tough enough. Hilarious antics ensue. Whether it be SpongeBob going to "WEENIE HUT JUNIOR'S?!" as a means to recoup, or Patrick beating himself up - literally! - to get SpongeBob in only for SpongeBob to slip on an ice cube, this one is a constant joy and I always find myself quoting it. (9/10)
Squilliam Returns - Oh, boy... This one hurts. The setup is fantastic. The gags, the scenery, the fact that Squidward is showing Squilliam who's boss, it's all great! So why the low rating? Simple. THE ENDING. I always tune in to this episode, yet often finding myself tabbing away once Squilliam asks SpongeBob for his name, leading to everything crashing down. Maybe he is trying to impress someone by lying to him, but it almost worked! It takes an interesting "what if" scenario and turns it into another gut punch to someone who's constantly getting gut punched. Not necessary, writers. (5/10)
Overall - While the ending of Squilliam Returns does bring this down a bit for me, I still think these two are a fine pair on their own. No Weenies Allowed in particular is one of my favorites of Season 3.
Score: 9 + 5 = 14/20 -> 7/10; Would recommend.
