storytime7 Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 It is definetely underrated. the scenes with Spongebob tryting to open the briefcase was pretty funny. 8.6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Yeah, I agree this one flies under the radar when people praise other S4 eps (like Krusty Towers). Personally, this episode's in my top 30 of all time. I thought it was hilarious. "Poor Gram-Gram!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebobfan29 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I used to Love this episode, but now i only find it to be an average episode. It was funny, but the parts with spongebob struggling to open the case got stale after a while. 7.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjs Goodman Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 One of my favorite Season 4 episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Personally, I don't see what was funny about this episode. :/ In my book, Mr. Krabs, Spongebob, and Plankton don't make a very good primary case (except in cases like The Algae's Always Greener). Just another average episode, in my opinion, and I didn't see how him trying to open up the briefcase was funny at all. I think if he'd maybe gone gorilla on it and started slamming it against the table, and everyone looks at him, I would've laughed, but using a screwdriver and turning into a torpedo has no comedic value to me. I did, however, like how the lawyer himself slipped in puddles, and I chuckled at how it seems there is patches of water all over the Krusty Krab. That itself highlighted Mr. Krab's cheapness, but that's another issue in itself. I wanted to slap Mr. Krabs, especially when he leapt at the money when Spongebob blended it. Then, combined with Squidward's mention of only getting one day off in three years, I just didn't find Mr. Krab's cheapness humorous in this episode. /: 4/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgesheardexpress9 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I have a soft spot for this episode. For one thing, the writers attempted something new and tried to re-invent the wheel in an interesting way. Also, I love the fact that Nick UK used the old NTSC-to-PAL conversion method for this episode, unlike what they did with FoaKB/SoaM... those episodes seemed like they were on heroin or something - what with the sped up voices and whatnot. At least they had realised the error of their ways. All of this, combined with the fact that I watched this episode at a considerably young age (I was around eight years old when this episode premiered in the UK), means that I am very lenient towards this episode, in spite of the fact that it was somewhat lacking in humour. However, for a post-movie episode, it is to be expected, I suppose. I rate this episode an 8 out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMM Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I love this episode. I honestly thought this was a treat for the older watchers of the show, but it was still pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I honestly thought this was a treat for the older watchers of the show This is an interesting comment, and I have to say I agree with it. This episode, contrasting with a lot of SpongeBob episodes, doesn't have a lot of sight gags or slapstick, something that may appeal to younger viewers. The majority of the humour is dialogue-based, and it actually plays out as a semi-serious episode. It's still funny, but I don't think being funny was this episode's primary goal.

WhoBibbles Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 This episode was a great season 4 episodes but some parts were boring in my opinion. I liked the plot and there were some funny moments in this episode like Mr. Krabs' eyes turnining into gold bars, SpongeBob trying to unlock the briefcase, Squidward's cameo and the ending. I recommend this episode. 8/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpongebobViewer64 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I liked how random it was but It made a lot of sense that plankton would fake an injury and try to con krabs over that. Resolution was obvious but I like the fact that the lawyer had the idea. Also mr krabs being cheap was hilarious ere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NegiSpongie Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I thought it was a pretty good episode. SpongeBob makes a pretty good lawyer, and Plankton's gram-gram story was pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt0417 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I wish people would talk about this episode more. It has alot to like. I especially loved the lawyer slipping on the same puddle Plankton did and SpongeBob interrogating a freaking mop. 9/10 GREAT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
