Face Freeze!

I'm gonna freeze this episode.

**Face Freeze!** is an ULTRA-infamous episode of *SpongeBob SquarePants*. In this episode, SpongeBob and Patrick catch an incurable disease after making too many silly faces.

## Why You Should Freeze This Episode

1. This episode logically makes no sense. Making funny faces won't get your face stuck permanently no matter how hard you try, unless if you have a condition. The episode is also a ripoff of the Jay Jay the Jet Plane episode, “I Love Your Funny Face” as they both have the premise of characters making funny faces, despite being warned and suffer the consequences. However, the latter had a more logical plot, the stuck face is from the planes emoting after they’ve been freshly waxed instead of waiting for the wax to dry.
2. The faces that SpongeBob and Patrick make throughout the episode are over-the-top, disturbing, disgusting, unfunny, and immature. Their faces were so bad that many Bikini Bottomites stayed away from them.
	* The face SpongeBob gets stuck in is identical to the first stage of his snail transformation in Season 1's "I Was a Teenage Gary" (big shock, that is another disturbing episode).
3. The episode is, in fact, an utter rehash of Season 1's "Hooky"; it also bears similarities to the *Simpsons* short "Making Faces" from *The Tracey Ullman Show*.
4. Sandy later shows up and offers to fix their faces, only for them to turn out wrong. It would've been better if they were fixed in a hospital.
5. When SpongeBob brings someone's order he drooled on a tray, he ruins three patties because of his severely disfigured face, which is outright disgusting.
6. **Horrible ending:** When Mr. Krabs confronts SpongeBob and Patrick for disobeying his orders of not making any more silly faces earlier in the episode, he became so angry that his face quickly became severely frozen and disfigured. Squidward then shows up and laughs at their faces hard, causing his face to also get severely frozen and disfigured. SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs then start laughing at Squidward to return the favor, as the episode ends with all three of them laughing at Squidward while remaining in their severely disfigured frozen faces.
	* It also makes no sense because Mr. Krabs and Squidward made only one face each before their faces instantly got stuck, even though SpongeBob and Patrick made way more than one face.
	* This whole ending also makes it look like it's a very happy and funny ending, but it's a disturbing and very unfair ending on Mr. Krabs' and Squidward's part, with the latter because it's the episode's way of punishing them even though did they did absolutely nothing wrong.
7. This episode contains possibly the worst humor to have ever come out of the show.
8. This episode's content makes it feel more like a *SpongeBob* trollfic than an actual episode.

## Redeeming Qualities That You Shouldn’t Freeze

1. Mr. Krabs at least teaches SpongeBob and Patrick a valuable lesson.
2. Despite how hideously horrifying the faces were, you can see that the animators put a lot of effort and imagination into them.
	1. Two of the faces, one for Patrick, and the other for SpongeBob look like they are made of cardboard.
3. Sandy's line: *"You two need help."*
4. The scene where Patrick saying "HEY SPONGEBOB" repeatedly can be funny to some.
5. Patrick's line: **"ALRIGHT WE DID IT!!"** can still be a little funny.
6. "Look at the funny face dodododododo"
7. You can use this episode to troll someone.
