Suited Prowler

### Behaviour

Laughs before rushing the player, retreats when flashed by the Clam Cam. When flashed by clam cam, he will become faster and also will reveal some prowlers.

### Enemy Type

Jellien (disguised)

**The Suited Prowler**, also known simply as **The Suit**, is the main antagonist of the Goofy Goobers level, stalking the player as they attempt to fill the Jellien hives with mayonnaise. It is a Prowler disguised in the Goofy Goober costume that was left abandoned in the Goofy Goober parlor after the Jellien invasion began.

## Appearance

The Suited Prowler's costume is a large, bright tan peanut wearing a red bowtie, with a large gaping mouth with one tooth, and bright red cheeks, it has white gloves and a yellow hat. Since it is a Prowler wearing a costume that was made for a fish, the costume does not fit right, causing the Prowler to be unable to fit both its eyes into the costume's eye sockets, leaving one socket blank, causing it to look more disturbing. Its arms are also purple since it's a Prowler.

## Pattern

The Suited Prowler activates SpongeBob talks to the Bartender and begins constantly wandering the interior of the parlor but remains invisible until catching sight of the player. Upon seeing the player, the costumed Prowler will make a loud screeching sound, and charge towards them. If they make contact, the player will immediately die. If hit with a light on the Clam Cam, he will retreat into the darkness, remaining concealed until he's close enough to strike again.

Once the Suited Prowler gets within a certain range of the player, it'll make a chuckling sound. Like most other enemies, the Suited Prowler must first reach the player before springing to attack and will interact with any doors or curtains that obstruct his path to do so. Forcing it to open any that are nearby will provide an additional audio cue to signal its arrival, making its ambushes slightly more predictable.

The Suited Prowler is constantly moving towards the player in between reveals and will do so more quickly each time it retreats from the flash. Despite this, he will consistently begin approaching from the front door, meaning that the player can avoid encountering him immediately after sending him back if they avoid the main lobby.

## Plot

Before SpongeBob and others enter the parlor, a Prowler is seen finding the abandoned Goofy Goober costume left in the parlor, presumably putting it on soon after.

Once SpongeBob does enter, the Suited Prowler is seen chasing off Squidward soon after he arrives with Patrick. He apparently gave up chasing Squidward in order to pursue SpongeBob and Patrick as they filled the Jelliens' hives with mayonnaise.

Before Patrick defeats an Alpha, the Jellien hive within the parlor explodes and all Jelliens within retreat through the glass window above, the Prowler exits the Goofy Goober costume in order to escape the parlor with its fellow Jelliens.

Later in ??? a drawing of the Suited Prowler can be seen while Doodle Patrick is explaining the Doodles' backstory. The Suited Prowler presumably died with its fellow Jelliens sometime after the demise of The Overlord.

## Trivia

* While the Prowler itself is not the Goofy Goober, the fact that his signature costume was left unattended likely means that the real Goofy Goober is either captured, cloned, or dead.
