Where to start... A heist ep with brutal revenge? Sign me up! A cute dog and brainless rabbit and drunk otter crew? Double win!

This episode grew on me so much, especially because of that amazing heist ending.

Gaspar being the conman he is easily reels in Whiskers like a pirahna. Just give me more antagonists like this, rather than just generic "take over the world" idiots.

So whiskers teams up with a drunk otter and comes up with a plan to steal his poster back. The failed attempts are everything about Brandy and Mr Whiskers being the god of all shows, get off the stage everyone else, this is comedy!

Since Brandy is the best she obviously bails the boys out of metaphorical jail, plans a big heist and busts the poster out of Gaspar's jail. It's amazing how a minute can make an episode number 4.

Best trio ep too because come on, slippery beer wins everything.

Since my brain is on fire just thinking of what to say this is easily a 10/10.

Underrated

This episode plays as one of the most unique in the series, especially coming from a show that doesn't deal with these types of "tough" subjects, this one being about loss and scamming. And for that reason, it's one of my favorites.

From the plot alone, this episode is fun all throughout. From the funny scams to basically a better Squidward (Brandy) helping SpongeBob and Patrick (Whiskers and Ed) is handled in a very tolerable way it feels like an actual follow up to episodes like "The Monkey's Paw" as here she is less hesitant to goof off with them.

This episode has a lot of funny moments mixed in with the scamming including Ed as Carl Le Fong and some of Gaspar's funny lines spread across the episode. One of this show's best attributes is how it adds comedy in serious moments. In most cases, you have to choose one or the other, otherwise you'll end up with something like "A Grave Mistake" from "The Loud House".

However, there is one thing I'd like to mention, relating to this episode and others like another one of my favorites, "What Price Dignity?! (Cheap!)". Something throughout this episode is Whiskers' attitude. How his Sugartoad poster was important to him, and how he made a bad trade that he can't reverse. The poster is now Gaspar's for him to do whatever with. But, after Brandy, Whiskers, and Ed steal it in a short sequence that felt like a sequel to "The Monkey's Paw", the poster gets destroyed in what I can only assume is clever foreshadowing. Whiskers got scammed from a meteor forcefield device and his poster gets ruined by a meteor. Now, this may look really bad, but Whiskers honestly deserved this as he stole something that technically isn't his. He got his poster back... but in the wrong way, so he got what was coming to him. It includes an obvious "don't steal" moral within the staying safe from scams moral (as if kids from the 2000s were paying attention to that). The fact that Brandy helps him in the end is also very sweet and could be considered as more character development.

Which plays into the main moral mentioned above, I find it really relatable. Especially to someone like me who has played a ton of trading games when she was younger such as "Animal Jam". That moral being that you can't always have what you want and to be smart around scams, which this episode handles importantly in an enjoyable manner.

I find this one of the best episodes in show. Pure gold, 10/10.
