For the first episode segment, if ANYONE was wondering where "The Patrick Star Show" got all its weird ideas from; they LITERALLY get it from Idea Bricks, pumped out of a weird machine! Everything is fine until the machine seems to be UNABLE to make more bricks! Desperate, Patrick and Squidina TRY to make a brick on their own! Patrick's first attempt involves using a Necronomicon, but all it does, is make a brick that is LITERALLY a BAD idea; as it causes Patrick to have the BAD idea of tormenting a poor old lady! Once he recovers, Patrick and Squidina make a brick the way it's SUPPOSED to be made; with LITERALLY a FOOT of sand! But the idea comes to life, and ends up running INTO the machine! Patrick and Squidina go into the machine, and they find out that it connects to RANDOMLAND!!!! I think this was a very genius idea, as neither Patrick nor Squidina have visited Randomland yet, and while Patrick can handle it just fine; POOR Squidina is having a HARD time with her RATIONAL brain trying to make sense of such an IRRATIONAL place! Eventually, they find that their sentient brick has run to a mechanical bird that is LITERALLY laying a bunch of idea bricks! Naturally, Squidina figures that if they can catch it; they might NEVER run out of ideas again! The problem is, the bird FEEDS on ideas; so anytime Squidina TRIES to think of one, the bird LITERALLY eats it! It falls to Patrick to TRY to come up with an idea, but since he has trouble coming up with ANY sort of idea, it actually works to Patrick and Squidina's advantage; as when the bird TRIES to eat Patrick's ideas, it ends up becoming weak enough for Patrick and Squidina to capture it! Satisfied, Patrick and Squidina take it back home. But since there's an audience watching, the bird is able to RECOVER with NEW knowledge, and it forces Patrick to chase after it for its valuable idea bricks! I give this episode segment a 10 out of 10! /

I think "A Fool Schooled" is a way of letting people know that NO, it's not their imagination; Patrick HASN'T been schooled properly! Specifically, he's NEVER finished "Behavioral Training" in Kindergarten! Thankfully, in a "Surprisingly Realistic Outcome", instead of being FORCED to go to an ACTUAL Kindergarten classroom; since Patrick is too big and old, his family instead decides to home school him! Cecil does the house basics of living, Bunny decides to teach cafeteria etiquette with the help of Granny Tentacles, GrandPat decides to teach Patrick how to act around others like senior citizens, while Squidina decides to let Patrick have some social interactions with recess! Although Patrick manages to get an F in recess, that's ACTUALLY his BEST grade! Patrick is SO awful at all the other things he has tried, he ACTUALLY managed to get a Z in those grades! Having tried everything they could, and with no alternative; the family decide to dump the wild Patrick in the sea woods! But when they get back, who should they find except Patrick, now DRESSED like a Gentleman, and able to do ALL of his behavior activities right! Satisfied with the results, Patrick gets straight A's on all his activities! As it turns out, the recess for his success is that a family of sea wolves took Patrick in, and taught him everything they know. As it turns out, one of those things DOES turn out to be getting NAKED and howling on top of the roof at the moon; but compared to how Patrick was acting before, that's ACTUALLY an improvement! I'll give this episode segment a 9.9 out of 10, only because I felt the episode segment could've done better if this episode segment was longer, and devoted some more time to showing just HOW the sea wolves teaching Patrick could've resulted in such a change! Enough said, true believers!
