"Sir Urchin and Snail Fail" is a SpongeBob SquarePants episode from season 13. In this episode, SpongeBob and Patrick's favorite comedy duo has a falling out on live television.
SpongeBob and Patrick sit down to watch an episode of The Sir Urchin & Snail Fail Show! In the episode, Snail Fail works at Sir Urchin's house and cleans his priceless works of art. Snail Fail ends up smashing a painting into Sir Urchin, making him furious, as the audience laughs. Snail Fail continues to hit Sir Urchin with other objects, until he grows bored and suddenly gives a dramatic soliloquy about Sir Urchin's catchphrase: "Why, you!" The audience is surprised, and when Sir Urchin gets angry at him for not saying the right lines, Snail Fail declares that he wants to be a more serious actor, and quits his spot on the show.
SpongeBob and Patrick decide to get the two back together. SpongeBob rides his unicycle to Snail Fail's house, while Patrick calls a taxi, only for Sir Urchin to be the driver. Patrick tells Sir Urchin that he is a fan of his show and repeatedly hits him with a hammer, giving Sir Urchin the idea to have Patrick be Snail Fail's replacement.
Meanwhile, SpongeBob arrives at Snail Fail's house through the mail. He refuses to go back to Sir Urchin's show, so SpongeBob sets him up with a performance of Hamlet at Shady Shoals Rest Home, although the audience reacts negatively.
Patrick and Sir Urchin re-enact the show on the street, but between their lack of an audience and Patrick's inability to remember his lines, it does not go over well. Sir Urchin and Snail Fail are both notified of an upcoming talent show, and separately agree to attend.
Backstage, they run into each other, where SpongeBob and Patrick try to get them together. Snail Fail wants to perform with SpongeBob, while Sir Urchin is trying to go first with Patrick. Snail Fail takes Sir Urchin's monocle and smashes it, leading to a major fight between the two on stage. They smash each other with various objects, as they did on their show. At the end, they notice the audience, and Snail Fail says his catchphrase. The audience cheers, and Sir Urchin and Snail Fail agree to go back on the show, with some of Snail Fail's more dramatic acting included.
On the next episode of the show, Snail Fail continues his Hamlet performance. He hits Sir Urchin with the skull he is holding, making the audience laugh again. SpongeBob and Patrick are glad that the show is back, and Sir Urchin and Snail Fail give a personal shout out to them, popping out of the TV screen. However, an old lady from Shady Shoals shows up and yells at them. The episode finishes with a Looney Tunes-esque end card featuring Sir Urchin and Snail Fail reading "THE END!"
