Early Spongebob Squarepants episodes hold a special place in my heart, for better or for worse, and "Scaredy Pants" was one of those episodes that left me with my mouth hanging open thinking, "What. Just. Happened." During the Halloween-themed episode, Spongebob hears a ghost story about the Flying Dutchman, which consequently makes him jump at just about everything in sight, earning him the nickname "Spongebob Scaredypants."
In an attempt to make himself look scary for the upcoming Halloween party and redeem himself, Spongebob asks for Patrick's help in coming up with a costume and takes things way too far when he shaves his head to look rounder, like a ghost, leaving his brain exposed. At the party, Spongebob reveals his new look to everyone at the Krusty Krab, which sends them all running away screaming. Good times, Nickelodeon.
