Ep 9. SpongeBob Week Game 1

In Double Dare season 5 episode 9, titled "SpongeBob Week Game 1," the beloved Nickelodeon character SpongeBob SquarePants takes over the show for a week-long special event.

The episode begins with host Liza Koshy introducing the teams: the "Squidward Squad" consisting of Julian and Demetrius and the "Patrick Elites" made up of sisters Emma and Chloe. The teams are dressed in bright yellow and pink outfits, respectively, adorned with SpongeBob imagery.

The first challenge is "Bikini Bottom Trivia," where the teams must answer questions about the show for points. Questions range from identifying SpongeBob's occupation to naming the town he lives in. The teams show off their knowledge of the show, but ultimately, the Patrick Elites come out on top with a score of 90 points to the Squidward Squad's 80 points.

Next up is "Jellyfish Jam," where the teams must use a giant spatula to scoop up jellyfish and transfer them into a tub on the other side of the stage. The catch? One team member is blindfolded, and the other must guide them with verbal cues. The Squidward Squad is quick to take the lead, but the Patrick Elites catch up and ultimately win with a time of 36 seconds to the Squidward Squad's 47 seconds.

In the third challenge, "Krabbie Pattie Flip," the teams must flip hamburger patties onto a bun and catch them with a griddle. The twist? They are standing on balance boards, making it extra difficult to keep their footing. The Squidward Squad dominates this challenge, winning with a score of 5 to 2.

Next, it's time for the "Sponge Squirter" challenge. Here, the teams must fill up a sponge with water and use it to squirt it into a bucket across the stage. Again, one team member is blindfolded, and the other must guide them verbally. This challenge proves to be much more difficult than anticipated, with both teams struggling to hit their target. In the end, the Squidward Squad wins with a score of 4 to 3.

The final challenge of the episode is the "Sandy's Treedome Maze." The teams must navigate through a maze while wearing giant Sandy Cheeks suits and collecting golden spatulas along the way. It's a high stakes challenge, as the team with the most spatulas at the end of the game will win the episode. Both teams struggle with the cumbersome suits, making it difficult to move around and find the spatulas. But ultimately, the Squidward Squad pulls ahead and wins with a score of 8 to 6.

The episode ends with Liza Koshy congratulating the Squidward Squad on their win and sending the Patrick Elites off with a "Good try, guys!" Both teams receive a trophy, but the Squidward Squad earns the right to compete in the next episode of SpongeBob Week.

Overall, "SpongeBob Week Game 1" is a fun-filled episode that is sure to delight fans of the iconic cartoon. The challenges are creative and entertaining, and the teams bring a lot of energy to the show. It's a great way to kick off the special event and get viewers excited for what's to come.
