Why Plankton Never Gave Up

Plankton has spent years trying to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula... ...and somehow, he's still trying. In this Retro Dive Case File, we take a closer look at Bikini Bottom's smallest villain and explore why Plankton became one of the most memorable cartoon characters ever created. From ridiculous inventions and failed master plans to his surprisingly impressive intelligence and endless determination, there's a lot more to Plankton than most of us realised as kids. Maybe his greatest achievement wasn't stealing the formula... Maybe it was never giving up.
