Sailor Mouth

"Sailor Mouth" is the first segment of the 38th episode of SpongeBob SquarePants.
==Synopsis==
While taking out the trash at closing time at the Krusty Krab one night, SpongeBob notices the messages people have been writing on the dumpster. While reading them (and even changing one insulting Squidward so that it's now a compliment), he takes particular notice of one message insulting Mr. Krabs, particularly the last word (which the viewer only hears as a dolphin chirp). Patrick then comes by and SpongeBob asks him if he knows what the word means. Patrick says that it is a "sentence enhancer" that supposedly makes any sentence sound fancy. The two friends then start saying the word over and over.
The next day, SpongeBob shows up to work putting the "sentence enhancer" into every sentence he says, with Patrick doing the same, much to the shock of Squidward and all the customers. The disgusted customers all leave the Krusty Krab, and when Mr. Krabs rushes out in panic, Squidward whispers to him what SpongeBob and Patrick were saying. Mr. Krabs angrily calls SpongeBob and Patrick to him, saying he ought to make them paint the whole Krusty Krab for using that word. He tells them that the "sentence enhancer" they've been senselessly repeating is actually "number 11" out of 13 bad words they should never be using ("Don't you mean there are only seven?" "Not if you're a sailor.") and makes them promise to never use that word again.
Later that day, SpongeBob and Patrick play a game of Eels & Escalators. SpongeBob keeps getting "eels" and eventually loses the game, and he gets so mad about this that he screams the curse word again. Patrick, shocked by this, runs off to go tell Mr. Krabs on him, and SpongeBob runs after him. During the chase, Patrick accidentally utters the curse word himself, and SpongeBob starts running faster so he can tattle on Patrick. Patrick briefly overtakes the lead by grabbing onto the back of an ice cream truck, but it drives off in another direction. When SpongeBob and later Patrick make it to the Krusty Krab, they both frantically try to tell Mr. Krabs what happened, but their dialogue becomes indecipherable from all the shouting. Mr. Krabs grabs both of their mouths to silence them, saying that he wants them to calmly say what they're trying to tell him. After he un-silences them, SpongeBob and Patrick tell Mr. Krabs that both of them said the curse word, and he is mortified about them breaking their promise.
Mr. Krabs brings SpongeBob and Patrick outside to punish them. SpongeBob and Patrick, worried about their punishment, apologize to each other for cursing, and they vow to never do so again, with SpongeBob saying they should be good citizens like his boss. Mr. Krabs then returns with buckets of paint, saying he's making them paint the entire Krusty Krab. Just then, however, his foot hits a rock, causing him to start shouting all 13 bad words (all of which are heard as sound effects). SpongeBob and Patrick, after counting the swears, rush off to go tell Mr. Krabs' mother about this, with him desperately trying to stop them. When they arrive at Mama Krabs' house and she answers the door, SpongeBob and Patrick try to tell her about her son's cussing, all the while Mr. Krabs is shouting over them, which soon causes her to seemingly faint. Mr. Krabs reprimands the two for making his mother faint, but she quickly regains consciousness and says they should all be ashamed of themselves for using such language, and she makes them all paint her house as punishment. She then accidentally hits a rock with her foot and appears to scream a curse word herself... but it turns out the car horn sound that everyone heard was actually coming from Old Man Jenkins' car.
