In Chum Bucket List, SpongeBob says that Squidward never got married, but Squidward instantly starts stroking the clarinet, and telling her that she's beautiful the way she is. In When Death Comes Knocking, Squidward has 24 hours to live, and all he cares about is making sure that his clarinet is left in good hands. Throughout the episode, he frequently states that her name is Claire. And when he only has 10 minutes to live, he claims that he's glad to spend it with his "favorite woman" (his clarinet). This angers Sandy, who is another possible love interest.
