# Suicide Squidward

**Suicide Squidward** is a lost SpongeBob SquarePants episode, and was one of the cartoons made only by Andrew Skinner. This cartoon was the first one Andrew made. It was only viewed by Josh (MrJoshGonzales) and a few others. Althought it was made in 2003, Andrew sent it to the Nickelodeon Studios in Burbank in March of 2003, under the name of Madison Richards.

## The Tape

The tape is a VHS Tape labelled "SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS" on the top center. in the center it says "SUICIDE SQUIDWARD". Below the center it says "MADISON RICHARDS, 2003". At the bottom of the tape is labelled "NICK STUDIOS - FLORIDA".

## The Plot

Suicide Squidward begins with a view of the right side of Conch Street. The screen zooms in and then fades to a still image of Squidward's house. Squidward is playing a strange song on his clarinet. Spongebob and Patrick are laughing outside. Squidward reaches the windows and tells them something that is inaudible since his voice is corrupted, not resembling any known human language. He goes back to playing, and the scene fades. After many attempts of cleaning the tape, the next scene shows a blurry image of a dead body, possibly one of Skinner's victims. Painty the Pirate is seen talking, but his voice is heavily distorted. An image of a dead boy flashes and Painty keeps talking. The next scene shows Squidward looking depressed talking to the camera, The scene then jumpcuts to Squidward staring at a creepy demonic Spongebob, and he keeps blankly looking at it. He looks demonic for a second, then looks normal again. The scene swaps to Squidward sleeping, and his eyes spring open. Sandy is seen standing in Squidward's room with realistic eyes, and then the scene switches back to Squidward's face closeup, eyes bulging. The frame is seen again, but without Sandy. The scene cuts over to Squidward strolling down a road. He keeps up until he reaches the Krusty Krab, which when he reaches the front door, the scene swaps to Squidward in Spongebob's kitchen. A strange loud song is in the background. Mr. Krabs is giving a creepy look, eyes red aswell. Squidward appears, realistic blood now running down his face. Mr. Krabs is shown again, and then the tape transitions to Squidward strolling in the other direction. He does this for a short span of time. Suddenly, a creepy image of Patrick pops up, and he has the same eyes Spongebob from earlier did. Squidward stares at him, with the same red eyes, and blood running down his cheeks. Patrick and Squidward are both in turn seen again once more, before a time card reading "Later" appears. A strange noise is in the background. Plankton is on the sand, with his one eye replaced with the hyper realistic eye, and screams can be heard. The same image of Squidward from ten seconds ago appears, and then Plankton returns again for a short while. When the screen flips back to Squidward, he looks wrinkly and decayed slightly. The sleeping scene from earlier appears, and Squidward wakes up again. He is laying on the bed looking all depressed. A frame of the girl flashes and Squidward is now seen from a different angle. This image is actually the one that Andrew later took and edited for the final image of Squidward's Suicide. The girl image flashes yet again, and Squidward sits up, looking depressed while sitting on the side of his bedding. It is unknown what the rest of the contents of the tape is.

## Aftermath

After viewing, the tape was delivered to the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) and started investigating on the case. Substequently, a copy of the tape was found in the back of a black truck in March of 2023. The tape was then given to a man named Erik Welch, against the laws of the Bureau. The FBI is unaware of the existence of a copy of the tape. Erik Welch decided to clean the tape and upload it on the internet when it's perfectly clean. Additionally, another copy of the tape has been given to Mike Stern, an intern who viewed the tape in 2003. He uploaded a cleaning attempt his channel.

## Additional Tapes

Andrew had made other tapes alongside Suicide Squidward:

* Squidward's Suicide | his second cartoon, made and sent to Nick Studios in California in 2004.
* Three Bloody Drops | Andrew's third cartoon, made in Late 2004. It describes the murder of the two kids showed in Squidward's Suicide.
* Red Mist | Andrew's fourth cartoon. It looks like a Redone vesion of Squidward's Suicide with a few major differences. This one is on Sony Betamax and not VHS, supposedly to increase quality.
* Squidward's Homicide | a common nickname of Blood Lane. The episode shows Squidward committing a murder out of frustration.
* Unmarked Video 2000 Tape | Andrew's latest cartoon. A tape that looks like another redone version of Squidward's Suicide. Yet, there are a few differences.
