Brent Antonello spoke with Cinemablend about his role in "Organized Crime" and how the gunshot wound affected his character.
When Antonello found out that he was going to be shot, he thought he would be written off the show. "Reading that you're like, 'Oh, my God, no.' I thought I would get word that I would be let go from the show," Antonello recounted his panic. "But fortunately, it just hit my SpongeBob tattoo..." The way that he trailed off indicated that he had no idea where the SpongeBob tattoo came from. He'd never been informed that his character had one, so it felt like it came out of left field.
"I have a feeling that's going to come back to me somehow," Antonello continued. "I was asking Sean [Jablonski], the showrunner. I think that's going to come back. It wasn't just placed in there for no reason. So we'll see what happens with that. I'm very interested to know the backstory as well." After all, it would be weird to emphasize how his SpongeBob tattoo — a tattoo that viewers did not know about — was ruined if fans never learn the story behind the ink.
Needless to say, fans eagerly await the history of how the SpongeBob tattoo came to be before its inevitable demise.
