Help Wanted/Reef Blower/Tea at the Treedome Brief Reviews

Help Wanted: 7/10 Good Episode. I like the jokes and the montage. Not the best from Season 1 but I enjoyed it. Reef Blower: 5/10 This was okay, I guess. I just didn't find this episode funny. Since this was so short I can't really say it was an outright bad episode, but I didn't care for it. Tea at the Treedome: 8/10 This was great. This had some great jokes like SpongeBob saying "I NEED IT!" And I found this to be a great introduction episode for Sandy.
