Is it okay for me to list SpongeBob as a villain in this particular episode. While universally far from being a villain, this is regarded as the episode that made SpongeBob go from being a likable character to an antagonist in later episodes. In this episode, he committed robbery when he took a nudibranch from a woman without paying for it, when the nudibranch (a sea slug) tried to kill Gary, SpongeBob berated Gary for "bullying" the sea slug, whom he named Puffy Fluffy even though it was painfully clear that the slug was trying to kill Gary. Later on, when SpongeBob was about to be eaten by Puffy Fluffy, Gary rescues him and sends the nudibranch packing. However, SpongeBob still berates Gary for scaring him off even though he should've known that he was in trouble. Overall, this is the episode that many people believed that SpongeBob went from an innocent character, to an antagonist who is hard to look at. What do you think?
