“He lost Gary.” Sandy said, “Give him some time. “Hey Sandy,” Patrick began, “Don’t you think Spongebob looks….different?” But, something was different about Spongebob. The screen came back, to Spongebob sitting in his house, with Sandy and Patrick with a couple of Krabby Patties. While this happened, the camera panned outside of the hospital. Spongebob begins to yell "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" So loud, that it almost made me go deaf. I’m sorry, Spongebob,” The doctor says in a depressed voice, putting a fin on Spongebob’s shoulder. “The snail food that he congested had rat poison inside of it. “Is Gary alright, doctor?” Spongebob says, trying not to stutter. A fish in a doctor's coat came out and walks to Spongebob. The camera goes back to the waiting room, with Spongebob still sitting with bags under his with a nervous expression. The last part of the flashback scene, was Spongebob running out of his Pineapple house, Gary in his arms. He looked over to where he found Gary, and saw the bowl, upside down, with brown snail food all over the kitchen floor. He gasped and ran to the source of the noise. The episode went into a flashback scene, and showed Spongebob watching TV in his living room. He had bags under his eyes and looks nervous. The camera zooms in on the hospital, and goes to a shot of Spongebob sitting in, what looked like, some kind of waiting room. Beginning “credits” rolled normally, and then it went to a shot of a pet hospital. The episode started out with a title card with a pet bowl with the name “GARY” and above it read “Goodbye,” which read out “GOODBYE GARY.” Sad violin music was playing in the background. I was not ready for what I was about to watch. After he left, I grabbed the DvD off the counter, put it in my DvD player, and sat on my chair in my room to watch the episode. He never mentioned the DvD, mostly because it looked like he was in a hurry. When he got home, he put a DvD on the kitchen counter, and told me that he was running out for a while. Since my dad worked at Nick studios, he would sometimes bring home DvDs of the newer episodes and some that were test episodes, so he could edit them, to see if there were any errors in the episode, or to change anything that seemed wrong.
“Goodbye Gary” was darker than the usual Spongebob standards. My dad works at Nickelodeon studios, and mainly worked on “Spongebob” and “The Loud House,” but sometimes worked on other shows. Have you ever wondered what happens if the creators of Spongebob Squarepants got rid of Gary the Snail? The creators made a test episode called “Goodbye Gary,” an episode not supposed to be released to the public.
