The story takes place under the deepblue sea in Bikini Bottom, where SpongeBob resides. SpongeBob, who is ayellow, porous sponge, is your typical happy-go-lucky character, as he isalways cheerful and enjoys making people laugh. Patrick Star, SpongeBob'sneighbor who is a starfish, is your average children's show idiot, as he boastsknowing nothing and is often getting himself into ridiculous situations.Between the homes of these two lies the home of the miserable Squidward, asquid, who is known for being grouchy and playing tricks on SpongeBob andPatrick. Both SpongeBob and Squidward work at the Krusty Krab, a fast foodbusiness run by the greedy money-loving Mr. Krabs, a crab, the arch rival ofthe evil, possibly misunderstood, Plankton. Another neighbor, Sandy Cheeks, anathletic squirrel who normally wears an astronaut's space suit, was introducedin "Tea at the Treedome." She spends most of her time inventing andexperimenting. * * How long do I have to keep this ice cream cone on my nose? * * A bonus drawing of ice creamed nose Spongebob is also included. * Original Production Animated Cel and Drawing Original "rough" animation drawing, in black and red with notations in black and the smeared ice cream is colored in blue.
