This episode is really confusing. I had a hard time to have a clear opinion on the episode. During the first two thirds of the episode, not much really happens: they watch the movie and they're worried about The Fisherman. That's pretty much what happened before Squidward decided to disguise himself as The Fisherman to give them a scare. Most of the episode has SpongeBob and Patrick screaming, which isn't always pleasant to the ears, but here I don't mind it very much. That last part, in my opinion, saved the episode from being very forgettable. It has some funny moments, and also nice facial expressions. And the use of "Fight, Fight, Fight" as a background music wasn't expected. Squidward's comeuppance went a little too far, but at least he did something to deserve it instead of "he did nothing so let's annoy him". I also like the spooky feeling this episode has, which makes sense considering its airdate being close to Halloween. The last section, as well as the nice drawings and some jokes thrown out occasionally, definitely got my attention enough to consider it a decent episode. But if I want to see an episode with a good plot, I'd pass through from this one because not much happens.

This is it, my least favorite episode from the post-second movie era of 2015. That doesn't mean I think it's a bad one: it's actually a good one in my opinion. It makes some good things and some bad things. Let's start with the bad things: first of all, I don't mind Mr. Krabs' cheapness, I'd expect that from him and it's in line with it's line with his character. Squidward's annoyance in this episode isn't bothering him that much in this episode, so I consider it as a minor problem. But this episode, compared with the other episodes aired in 2015, is not that interesting: it's fine and nice, but it hasn't a story I'd check out over and over. It's another Plankton episode (kind of); and we've seen that a lot already but I'll come back to that. I question Mr. Krabs' behavior in this episode, he doesn't look like the guy who would easily give up and going to Plankton's picnic just like that. The twist is also kinda weird and implies that Squidward was riding a seadragon corpse, or eating disgusting chum, or that Plankton was driving a broken bus... but they needed a twist in the story, so it's cool. My last complain is that it ends quite abruptly, maybe too abruptly. About the things I liked, I liked the beginning (aside from the burning eye part), some of the jokes were funny and it has cool drawings like the face SpongeBob makes at the end of the slow-motion part, or "The best company picnic ever!". I also liked every other aspects of the plot and Plankton's plan feels... a bit more original than the other ones I've seen previously, I guess. Nice episode, and while still being relatively worse than the other ones surrounding it, it's still a rather satisfying experience.
