This is a two-panel edited meme using footage from the SpongeBob SquarePants animated series. In the first panel, Mr. Krabs wears the iconic green cap of Link from The Legend of Zelda video game franchise, holds a shovel and stands next to a gravestone marked #1 Royal Family, with overlaid text reading 'Am I really going to defile this grave for money?'. In the second panel, Mr. Krabs has already begun digging up the grave, throwing treasures onto the ground, with overlaid text reading 'Of course I am!'. The joke combines three core references: Mr. Krabs' canonical extreme obsession with earning money, the common Legend of Zelda player behavior of robbing graves for valuable items while justifying it as the hero, and modern public discourse surrounding the British Royal Family's accumulated wealth.
