Spongebob Squarepants - WHY?

(The story has been fixed.)
Do you know the show "Spongebob Squarepants?" It's an animated sitcom with the main protagonist being Spongebob Squarepants himself. I've discovered some strange episode that I still regret finding to this day.
It was a peaceful night when a friend of mine gave me a DVD. "It's Spongebob," he said. It was 10 PM at the time, thirty minutes past my usual bedtime. I wasn't sure about the DVD, but I went home and slept.
When I woke up, I picked up the DVD and walked into the living room. I placed it in the DVD player, and it played. The intro played, then it went to the title card. It had the same background as "Sandy's Rocket" for some reason. The starting credits played before the first bubble transition of the episode. However, something strange I noticed is that Stephen Hillenburg's name was misspelled as "Stephen Hellenburg" and some credits were missing. At the last screen before the transition, there was a name I didn't recognize, Tyler Jones.
It started with a shot of the Krusty Krab. The narrator started speaking. "Ah, the Krusty Krab. Spongebob's usual working place. He's in the kitchen, flipping patties and serving customers. However, this day will sadly turn for the worse." While the narrator was speaking, the camera zoomed slowly. After he spoke, it faded to a shot of Spongebob humming and flipping patties. Mr. Krabs burst in the door and yelled, "Spongebob, me boy! I have something to tell you and Squidward!" 
The bubble transition played again, and it cut to Squidward and Spongebob in Mr Krab's office. "Mr. Squidward, yer fired. Spongebob, place these flyers-" Mr. Krabs gave Spongebob some papers saying "NEED A NEW CASHIER AT THE KRUSTY KRAB". "-on poles in the streets of Bikini Bottom and tell everyone that we need a new cashier!" Spongebob sighed, "Aye aye, Mr. Krabs." The duo exited the room, though Squidward seemed happier than Spongebob.
The bubble transition played once again, and it cut to Squidward happily skipping to his house. He was singing a song.
"No more Spongebob, no more Spongebob! Don't need to deal with him annoying me! No more Spongebob, no more Spongebob! I am filled with glee!" He laughed and entered his house, slamming the door behind him.  It faded to Spongebob looking sad as he put flyers up. "Why?" he whimpered.
Later, it cut to Squilliam entering Mr. Krabs' office. "Mr. Squidward, I said yer fired!" he barked. Squilliam laughed and said, "Oh, I'm Squilliam Fancyson, not Squidward Tentacles! I'm also here to apply for a job as a cashier." Mr. Krabs stared at him for a few seconds before finally speaking. "Yer hired!"
The bubble transition played for the last time, and it cut to Spongebob standing at the grill, which seemed to be turned off. The thing is, though, Spongebob looked strange. His pupils were dilated and his mouth was quivering, seemingly trying to put on a smile. Eventually, he clutched his spatula as he wore a crazed smile. He walked out of the kitchen and looked at Squilliam.
"Oh, Spongebob! It's going to be a pleasure to work with you!" Squilliam laughed. After a bit of silence, he realized something was wrong. "Spongebob?"
"Why?" Spongebob asked.
"Why... what?"
"WHY WOULD YOU REPLACE SQUIDWARD?!" As Spongebob lunged at Squilliam, the screen cut to Mr. Krabs counting money. Eventually, Squilliam's screams were heard. Mr. Krabs ran out of the door and managed to yell "What the barnacles-" before he stopped and shrieked. The camera cut to Squilliam rocking himself back and forth with cuts and bruises all over his body, while repeating "Why?" softly. 
"Spongebob! What the halibut is wrong with you, boy?" Mr. Krabs barked as Spongebob looked at him with that God-awful stare. 
"YOU REPLACED SQUIDWARD!" the crazed sponge replied with a voice that seemed like Tom Kenny himself was just shouting the line. Spongebob then lunged at Mr. Krabs, and the episode cut to a footage of a real life crab being crushed with its own claw with Mr. Krabs' screams mixed into the scene. Spongebob laughed insanely in the background and asked, "Why did he replace my good ol' Squidward?" The screen faded to black. The end credits played.
I assume that Squilliam survived, while Mr. Krabs died. Although I regret finding and watching the episode, I still can't help but to think that there was some sort of satirical means behind it. A crab video being placed at the end of the episode. The poorly-drawn cuts and bruises on Squilliam. Somehow, I think this was all just a sick joke played by the executives at Nickelodeon.
Almost immediately, I jump onto my computer and describe the episode I see in an email directed at Nickelodeon. I later get a response, but it's not what I expected.Dear Nicholas, 
I'm sorry you had to see that episode. This episode was made as a morbid joke by one of our animators, Tyler Jones. He has recently been let go and, as far as I've heard, he's being investigated by authorities. I haven't heard anything else about him as of recently.
I don't really have much of an explanation for Jones' actions. All I can say is that from the days leading up to his termination from Nickelodeon, he has been acting suspiciously. He was always joking about sensitive topics such as suicide and murder. He was even quoted as of saying "Wouldn't it be funny if a mass shooter just barged in here and killed us all?" 
After terminating his employment, I've received death threats from Jones, and he even sent some of his wife's remains to Nickelodeon Studios. I'm still shaken up by it to this day. I hope Jones gets brought to justice if he hasn't already, and I wish you a speedy recovery from the events you've experienced.
Yours Truly,
Brian Robbins
President of Nickelodeon"I was shocked. No wonder I didn't recognize Tyler's name in the credits. Now that I know the whole truth about why that God-forsaken disc was made, I can rest easy.
