This episode has one good segment and one brilliant one.
Jellyfishing (7) Jellyfishing has good pacing, great slapstick, and Spongebob and Patrick are irritating without being unlikable. The visual gags are bombastic and frequently very funny, and Squidward gives as much as he gets, even if I feel a lot more sorry for him now than I did when I watched this as a kid.
Plankton (9) I'm almost tempted to give this episode a 10, but I won't quite. Plankton's introduction is amazing, he's a witty and sinister character with some absolutely incredible one liners and wonderful voice acting. The plot is surreal and slightly disturbing, showing a great contrast between the well meaning yet loyal Spongebob and the cynical and conniving Plankton. Plankton insulting Squidward is definitely. The episode's highlight. The only thing making this not a solid 10 is that it's funny without being hilarious.
