My favorite episode of the series!! Its hilarious, has a great story and a great atmosphere. Patrick was extremely hilarious here. Using his ice cream cone as "a sign of authority", screaming at the maniac picture countless times when the police showed it to him, him freaking out at the maniac (Spongebob) down the street, defenitly one of his funniest episodes. Spongebob was great here too. He's so enthusiastic about doing the right thing here but he ends up screwing up badly. Him directing traffic, him being the "open window maniac", screaming in the mailbox, defenitly one of his funniest episodes as well. VERY UNDERATED GEM of the series.
