About
Your Reward Will Be Great is an exploitable series based on a scene from the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. In the scene, the character King Neptune unveils a reward from a cloud of smoke to the character SpongeBob SquarePants. However, he accidentally unveils something else and quickly apologizes. The moment has been interpreted and edited in a series of images, GIFs and videos.
Origin
On April 1st, 2000, the episode of SpongeBob SquarePants entitled "Neptune's Spatula" aired on Nickelodeon. In the episode, Neptune pushes away a cloud of smoke and says:[1]
"And now, see the fate that may lie ahead. [summons the clouds] For if some minute chance you meet the challenge, your reward will be great. [opens the clouds] Behold! [shows Tom Kenny taking a shower and he screams; Neptune quickly closes the portal and blushes] Hehe. Whoopsie! Now, behold! [opens the clouds again and shows the city of Atlantis] My beloved home of Atlantis. A prize worthy of Apollo. You will reside here in this glorious palace, cook only for me, and be a god!"
Spread
One of the earliest known usages of the moment was published by YouTuber "TheRandom8or" on November 6th, 2010, replacing Tom Kenny with a video of Justin Bieber video. The post (shown below, left) received more than 50,000 views in eight years.
In 2013, the Tumblr blog ruinedchildhood uploaded a GIF of the moment, editing the image of Tom Kenny to footage of a woman twerking. In less than five years, the gif has received more than 35,000 notes.[2]
