I just needed a breath of fresh water.

Ah.

[chomping]

[mumbling]

That'll take care of it. .

[mumbling]

Don't do it. Don't do it! Don't do it!

[chomping]

Well, I do'd it.

[laughing]

Time for stronger measures.

[mumbling]

Alright, self, let's see ya get out of that one.

[grunting]

Whoa, SpongeBob, are you okay?

[gasping]

Fred, your nails. They're so... beautiful.

Aw, thanks. I really pride myself on--

My nails!

[laughing]

Must bite nails!

[laughing]

[humming]

Give me the works, Ethel.

Ugh, my nails are in terrible shape.

Ah.

Ooh, that feels good.

[chomping]

E-E-Ethel, you know I like to keep my nails long--

[screaming]

SpongeBob!

[screaming]

Uh, so...

when should we schedule your next appointment?

[growling]

[screaming]

[mumbling]

SpongeBob!

Trying out a new look with your face?

[chomping]

I like it!

Oh, Patrick, I can't stop... biting my fingernails.

Hmm. Mm-hmm. Ha! I know just what you need!

Oh! La, la, la, la, la.

[chattering]

Glove World! makes me forget all my troubles... and my name.

You're right.

I've forgotten all about biting my... nails!

[howling]

Yah!

[grunting]

[screaming]

Hey you, gimme that!

Knuckle 22 to base.

We've got a nail-biter in Pinky Land.

[screaming]

[carnival music playing]

Uh!

[chomping]

I think... I think... I need help.

[chomping]

- Cheeks residence. - Sandy!

[chomping]

Hmm.

[chomping]

Aw.

[chomping]

Don't worry, SpongeBob.

We'll stop your nail-biting habit

quicker than a jet-powered jackrabbit!

This'll keep your fingers out of your kisser.

I sure hope so.

Ah.

Um.

[mumbling]

[mumbling]

Oh. Uh-uh.

Tell me he ain't doing what I think he's doing.

Oh, he's good.

[chomping]

SpongeBob, that's just plain wrong.

Yah!

I guess we're gonna have to watch you

like Mr. Krabs watches his bank account!

[mumbling]

Huh?

[growling]

[snoring]

Huh?

[snoring]

[mumbling]

What, what?! Where'd he go?

[mumbling and chomping]

Hi, Sandy.

It's high time we got you some professional help.

This doctor's the best hypnotherapist

in Bikini Bottom. He'll sort out your bad habit.

The doctor will see you now, Mr. SquarePants.

[chomping]

Oh, please relax, Mr. SquarePants.

[chomping]

Now, what seems to be the trouble?

Doctor, I can't stop...

I can't stop...

I can't stop biting my nails! I don't know what to do!

[chomping]

Well, let us take a peak into your subconscious

and see what is causing your problem.

Keep your eyes on the watch, Mr. SquarePants.

Watch the watch,

- Mr. SquarePants. - Watch the watch...

- Watch the watch... - Watch the watch.

Watch the watch.

What seems to be troubling you, Mr. SquarePants?

I can't stop... biting my... nails.

Why do you want to bite your nails?

Stuck in dead-end job. Work in a grease trap.

Go on.

Tentacles hurt.

Tentacles? Hmm, interesting.

Neighbor... SpongeBob... annoying.

But aren't you SpongeBob, Mr. SquarePants?

No... I am Squidward.

[gasping]

Mr. SquarePants!

Obviously, you have subconsciously internalized

Mr. Squidward's problems as your own.

When I snap my fingers,

you'll realize you are not Squidward.

You are SpongeBob,

and your desire to bite your nails

will poof! Disappear.

[snapping]

[mumbling]

Am I cured?

Yeah, you are cured.

Whoopee! Thanks, Doctor...

Doctor...

Hans?!

[gasping]

Giant, delicious fingernails!
