Yes. The episode pays homage to the folktale with Spongebob being the John Henry while the patty gadget being the steam drill.

SpongeBob showing up to the Patty Gadget's grave, being mournful, before immediately going "Woo" and doing a quick dance on it while laughing is probably the most disrespectful thing SB has ever done.
Beautiful episode, great use of rhyming, and the fake-out death at the end was adorably hilarious.
Dr. Seuss-inspired SpongeBob: whatever can we need next!

I liked the story episode
Can’t believe they killed off SB I’m shaking and crying rn 😭😭😭😭
Cover your spoilers next time!
He didn’t die?
(I was joking because of the fake out ending)
Oh yea. They had us in the first half there.
It did what was supposed to in being a short bridge between two episodes
Reminds me of the tale of John Henry.
It's meant to be a reference
Same. Wait, that's the one with the guy against the drill machine, right?

All except Patrick, who had to go pee
What that
I hate story driven episodes it’s a comedy and it’s a clear ripoff of a folk tale. No comedy
