Plankton

Personality:   Plankton is egotistical, aggressive and power-hungry. He is very jealous of Mr. Krabs and his success. His only goal throughout the series is stealing the Krabby Patty secret formula and running Krabs out of business, a desire that has led him to destroy The Krusty Krab on more than one occasion. He is manipulative, as he manipulated SpongeBob into becoming "assertive" in "Walking Small" to drive everyone in the beach away so he could build another Chum Bucket even though SpongeBob would later figure it out. He also manipulated SpongeBob in "F.U.N." by pretending to be his friend to get a Krabby Patty. He is also deceitful, as he is always trying to convince SpongeBob and the others that he can be trusted, only to use their goodwill to get closer to the formula. Either way, he's too busy plotting revenge to interact with most of the characters. Being a villain might be lonely, but Plankton seems to like it that way. He also has an obsession with "world domination" as he is always mentioning that he will rule the world once he steals the Krabby Patty formula and becomes more successful and doesn't really care as he likes to come up with plans to do so. He teamed up with Man Ray in "Super Evil Aquatic Villain Team Up is Go!" and claimed he will rule the world with him, and in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie he enslaved the entirety of Bikini Bottom and created a dictatorship. He has a minuscule size and overcompensates by being evil and manipulative. He has tried everything from constructing an evil robot to hiring an assassin to kill SpongeBob and Patrick, but all his plans end up failing in the long run. Plankton's restaurant, the Chum Bucket, has always been extremely unsuccessful, not only because of competition from the Krusty Krab and Plankton's rude and cruel treatment of the people in Bikini Bottom but also due to the extremely poor quality of the food and Plankton's constant failure to clean the place up. As its name implies, the Chum Bucket serves chum-based foods, all of which are shown to taste terrible. In "Plankton's Regular," the Krusty Krab adds chum to its menu in an attempt to steal Plankton's single regular customer. The customer is disgusted by their chum and says that it is the second foulest thing he has ever tasted. This implies that chum is inherently disgusting, and cannot be made to taste good, although this is shown to be false in the episodes "Greasy Buffoons" and "Chum Fricassee." In the former, Plankton uses excess grease from the Krusty Krab's grease trap that was dumped near the Chum Bucket, to make his sales skyrocket, a goal which he succeeded in. However, his business is lost when the health inspector comes to investigate both the Krusty Krab and the Chum Bucket due to the grease trend. 127 Plankton selling a chum stick. It should be noted that in real life, chum is made of grounded-up fish parts that are inedible to humans, such as heads and guts, and is used as bait for sharks and similar creatures. This would mean that Plankton is killing fish, or at least collecting dead fish, and serving their remains to other fish, thus promoting cannibalism. This has only ever been touched upon in "The Krabby Kronicle," where SpongeBob prints a story claiming this. However, SpongeBob was being tricked by Mr. Krabs into printing absurd lies to appeal to customers, so this story was supposedly false. As mentioned in the episode "Spongicus," Plankton uses many odd things to spice up his chum. Plankton has no regular employees, and runs the Chum Bucket entirely by himself, although he spends most of his time in his laboratory, due to having no customers. Plankton runs the restaurant only when he has potential customers, but is shown to be a failure fast-food owner. Also, when he does have customers, he uses artificially intelligent machines to cover the other positions. Plankton is also highly intelligent and is one of, if not, the smartest citizen in Bikini Bottom, with his intellect being on par with only Sandy. Unfortunately, he often shows himself to be short-sighted and impulsive, and often lacking common sense. This is shown when all his plans of obtaining the Krabby Patty formula often fail, usually due to oversights, and he doesn't think beforehand of what might go wrong. He also seems unaware the biggest barrier to his success is his insistence on serving food nobody wants to eat, rather than serving something appetizing. Despite being a villain, Plankton is shown to have a soft side, as he seems to care deeply about his wife Karen, his pet Spot and his son Chip. In "Plankton's Pet," Plankton adopts an amoeba which he named "Spot" and takes the time to train it, take care of it, etc. and was genuinely sad when it ran away, only to be reunited with it later thanks to SpongeBob. Plankton has an expansive history of deception and committing misdemeanors, all while attempting to obtain the Krabby Patty recipe and do away with Mr. Krabs' business as a part of his plan. He has been arrested five times: in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, "Krabby Road," "Sweet and Sour Squid," "Fiasco!," and "Call the Cops." Plankton's personality traits and actions that came from those include, but are not limited to: Deception: Plankton has engaged in many unusual acts of kindness in the name of personal gain not really caring, just caring to steal the formula as he sometimes likes to deceive characters in order to do so: In "F.U.N.," Plankton pretends to be in a friendship with SpongeBob to obtain the formula from him. In "Walking Small," Plankton deceives SpongeBob in believing that berating the beach attendants is done with kindness so he can make an unauthorized development to the property. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Plankton acts disloyally to the king of Bikini Bottom by stealing his crown and eventually enslaving him with a mind-control helmet. Additionally, he betrays the town of Bikini Bottom by renaming it to suit himself and making the city revolve purely around him. In "Krabs vs. Plankton," Plankton fakes his injuries in an attempt to sue Krabs. In "New Leaf," Plankton claims he's changed his ways and showcases that by turning the Chum Bucket into a gift shop, but this was just a way of deceiving Mr. Krabs. In "Krabby Road," Plankton forms a band with SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward with the intent to obtain the secret formula. Plankton has used many people's identities to steal the formula, namely, Krabs in "Imitation Krabs," Sandy in "Someone's in the Kitchen with Sandy," SpongeBob's great grandmother in "Gramma's Secret Recipe," and Gary in "Shellback Shenanigans." As a means of deception, Plankton has posed under many job titles without having the license required or official permission to hold such occupations; he impersonates a therapist in "Fear of a Krabby Patty," a salesman in "Shellback Shenanigans," and a Girl Scout in "Pineapple Invasion." Plankton has disguised himself under many fake identities to deceive others and obtain the formula; he uses the identity "robot game show host" in "Imitation Krabs" and "Cashina" in "Married to Money." Taking advantage of others: When Plankton enslaves Bikini Bottom in the first movie, he forces Gary to pull a several-ton block of stone. In "Walking Small" Plankton uses SpongeBob for unauthorized land development and manipulates him into following his orders, deceiving him in believing that they are acts of kindness. The need for power: As well as wanting the Krabby Patty secret formula, Plankton had a personality based on wanting power over others. In the video game Battle for Bikini Bottom, Plankton creates a spade of robots to vandalize and threaten Bikini Bottom to increase his possibility of stealing the formula. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Plankton brainwashes the citizens into worshiping him; once SpongeBob frees all the citizens from the bucket helmets, the police discover his motive and deal with him. In "Chum Caverns," Plankton enslaves a group of cave dwellers. In "Jailbreak!" his chum is used by criminals as knockout gas and disguises, both for robbery. In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, to prevent SpongeBob and Patrick from making it to Shell City, Plankton hires an agent by the name of Dennis to deal with the duo. Dennis is eventually hit by a boat. In "Spongicus," Plankton arranges for Patrick to be eaten by a group of lions for the entertainment of others. Getting what he wants no matter what: Plankton breaks into SpongeBob's house in "Plankton!" to enter his brain. He also invades Patrick's house in "Salsa Imbecilicus" to get a copy of his DNA. Plankton escapes from jail in the episodes "Krabby Road" and "Jailbreak!" In The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, he finally gets a hold on the Krabby Patty formula. He also steals Sandy's fur pelt in "Someone's in the Kitchen with Sandy" and—albeit unintentionally—a piece of famous art in "Fiasco!," the latter instance of which lands him in jail with Squidward. Cutting corners: Plankton has poisoned his customers with his chum in numerous episodes, such as in "Plankton's Regular," "Spongicus," and "For Here or to Go." In "Friend or Foe" he and Mr. Krabs poisoned Old Man Jenkins with their Plabs Burger. Disturbing the peace: In "Sweet and Sour Squid," Plankton is arrested for playing clarinet that caused a disturbance throughout the town, even though it is Squidward's fault.
