Your Shoe's Tied

Your Shoe's Tied is a Season 23 episode of Spongebob Squarepants. In this episode, Spongebob has a srious addiction with tieing his shoes.

Plot
Following the events of Your Shoe's Untied, Spongebob now knows how to tie his shoes, but is addicted to it. Squidward comes to his house one day and tells him he's fat and stupid, so Spongebob tortures Squidward by tieing his shoes.

Squidward is offended at Spongebob's shoe-tieing, so he checks into Best Western and blows up for some reason. Patrick is saddened that Spongebob would cause this. He asks his old buddy if he wanted to go jellyfishing, and he said no. Patrick turned into Squidward and blew up. Gary blew up. Bikini Bottom blew up, and Spongebob was left alone in the rubble. Spongebob's eyes turn hyper-realistic, a picture of Patrick eating a toilet is shown, and then the episode cuts to static.

We then see Nickelodeon Animation Studios, where Paul Tibbitt is trying to make the writing staff make episodes that make sense. Episodes then turn back to normal, and the credits roll.

Critical Reception
Critics hated the episode. Spongebuddy Mania says "the episode was plain disturbing". The New York Times gave it 0 stars, saying "what the heck is this piece of garbage".

The episode did get viewed by 5 million viewers when it premiered. Nickelodeon cut reruns of the episode off its schedule, dissapointed at the Spongebob writers.
