It originally aired on Nickelodeon in the United States on November 10, 2006.
Summary
SpongeBob's "Best Day Ever" fails to turn out as he planned when he is forced to postpone his activities to help his friends with their problems. He wants to work at the Krusty Krab, but it is condemned because of a nematode infestation; he inadvertently lures the nematodes away using his nose as a flute. Then, he plans to practice some karate with Sandy, but she is unable to because there is a leak in her treedome. SpongeBob, believing it to be a trick, fixes it accidentally by stopping the leak with one of his adhesive karate gloves (Sandy had punched him up towards where the leak was when he tried to attack her). Next, he wants to go jellyfishing with Patrick, but Patrick ends up breaking his net, so SpongeBob gives him his old net, which quickly breaks as well. SpongeBob ends up giving Patrick his new high tech net. SpongeBob waits impatiently to use the net, but decides to leave for his next planned activity.
SpongeBob's final activity for the day is to go to Squidward's clarinet recital. However, once he meets up with Squidward, he says that he cannot play in the concert because the reed of his clarinet is shot. Determined not to miss out on this activity as he had done with the other ones, SpongeBob pulls out one of his teeth to replace the reed. SpongeBob attempts to enter the building, but the usher refuses to let him in unless he has a ticket. He tries various methods of sneaking in, but at last he is let in because he is on the VIP list (Mrs. Puff said his name when she found him hiding in her purse in one attempt). He gets in right as the concert ends.
SpongeBob gets upset that everything has gone entirely wrong and takes the stage to give an elaborate speech about how his "Best Day Ever" has been ruined. However, Mr. Krabs, Patrick, Sandy and Squidward tell him about how he helped them with their problems and that his "Best Day Ever" was actually about them. To make it up to him, they hold a production in which SpongeBob performs his song, "Best Day Ever," to complete his day with Patrick, Sandy, Squidward and Mr. Krabs co-starring along in it. A few hours later, SpongeBob is still singing, but his friends are tired and sleepy, and the audience has all disappeared. When Squidward asks Mr. Krabs how long they have to keep up the performance, Mr. Krabs replies, "Just 'til his little heart gives out, Squidward. Just 'til his little heart gives out.

Qualities That Ruined The Best Day
- SpongeBob overreacted a bit in the episode.
- A couple of people pointed out that this episode would not have aged well because they thought this episode was a rating trap, pointing out why some people claimed this episode did not live up to the hype at all, giving the episode a divisive reputation within the SpongeBob community.
- SpongeBob friends can be unlikable sometimes due to the reason:
- Mr. Krabs closed the Krusty Krab due to the nematodes eating the Krusty Krab food.
- Sandy is doing to fix the leaking from the Treedome and she not doing the Karate fight because this problem and she smashed SpongeBob to close the leaking temporarily until Sandy fixed the leak.
- Patrick is a bit of jerk, and he constantly to getting Jellyfishing catcher and broke it over and over, and sadly, he get the newest Jellyfishing net by SpongeBob and after that, SpongeBob just gave up with this.

Trivia
- According to the episode's production code (151–507), this episode was produced during the beginning of the fifth season's production cycle. The reason it was moved to season 4 might have been due to it being completed earlier than intended.
- Similarly, the season 4 episode "Night Light" was produced for this season, but due to being completed outside of the 20 episode order, it was pushed back to the next season.
