Episodes

Your Shoe's Untied / Squid's Day Off

Your Shoe's Untied Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Patrick purchases shoes and asks SpongeBob to help him tie them. SpongeBob realizes that he forgot how to tie his shoes, because his shoes have been tied as long as he can remember. Patrick is less than impressed. SpongeBob goes to sleep, hoping that he’ll remember how to tie his shoes. The next morning, he tries to go to work, but his shoes are still untied. Because of that, SpongeBob falls down repeatedly on his way to work. Much to his dismay, Patrick is at the Krusty Krab when SpongeBob gets there, and he doesn’t want Patrick to know that he really did forget how to tie his shoes. SpongeBob hopes that he can feel safe in the kitchen if he stands in the same spot all day, but Squidward immediately needs SpongeBob to bring him a customer’s order. SpongeBob repeatedly trips on his way to Squidward, and Krabby Patties are thrown into Squidward’s mouth, in which he eats them all. SpongeBob then breaks down and cries in the kitchen. The customers of the Krusty Krab become impatient and leave. Mr. Krabs tries to convince them not to leave, but his pants fall down since he had just ran from the restroom. SpongeBob then has to admit that he forgot how tie his shoes.

SpongeBob then goes on a rampage to try to find someone to help him tie his shoes. However, nobody else in Bikini Bottom actually wears shoes. The ghostly Flying Dutchman then appears to help SpongeBob tie a knot. The Flying Dutchman knows how to tie many different kinds of knots, but he proclaims he cannot tie shoes since he hasn’t worn them in more than 5,000 years. He then disappears, and SpongeBob crawls back to his house. He is met by his pet Gary, who surprisingly knows how to ties shoes since he wears shoes beneath his shell. Gary then turns on a record that plays a song about tying shoes. SpongeBob then learns how to tie his own shoes.

Notes: Painty the Pirate makes a cameo appearance on this episode, when Spongebob slammed himself into the picture, asking him to tie his shoes.

Squid's Day Off Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Squidward is angered by having to work on a Sunday at the Krusty Krab, and there are no customers. He drops money on the ground, which alerts Mr. Krabs, who rushes to the money's rescue. He takes it to the sink to be washed, but he drops a dime down the drain. He tries to reach in and grab it, but his hand becomes stuck in the drain. Rather than letting go of the dime, he tries to pull his arm out with SpongeBob’s help. However, both of his arms fall off in the struggle, and he is taken to the hospital— leaving Squidward in charge. Immediately after Mr. Krabs leaves, Squidward “promotes” SpongeBob to cashier, meaning SpongeBob has to take orders at the cash register and cook the food. Squidward says he has to run some managerial errands, but this is just a ploy so he can leave.

Squidward then goes home to enjoy the day. However, Squidward is immediately concerned, because he thinks SpongeBob is going to single-handedly destroy the Krusty Krab by either accidentally giving away all the money or by setting the place on fire. Squidward tries to relax, but he keeps having visions of SpongeBob destroying the Krusty Krab. Because of this, Squidward repeatedly runs back and forth from his house to the Krusty Krab to check on SpongeBob, who has been standing at the register the whole time doing nothing. Squidward is unable to relax and keeps running back and forth over and over again— assuring that SpongeBob will mess up something. To prevent himself from going to the Krusty Krab again, he bolts his front door shut and takes a bath. All the while, he is slowly going insane over the safety of the Krusty Krab.

He imagines that SpongeBob is spying on him to see if he really is doing errands, even imaging that SpongeBob is in the bathtub with him. He thinks that SpongeBob caught him, and he rushes back to the Krusty Krab without any clothes on before SpongeBob can tell Mr. Krabs. He bursts through the doors of the Krusty Krab to find SpongeBob standing there. After scolding SpongeBob for apparently appearing outside of his house and in his bathtub, he realizes that he’s gone crazy and turns back to normal. He tells SpongeBob that he’s done with his errands and wants to go back to his cashier duties. Then, SpongeBob realizes that they forgot to change the Closed sign to say Open and says they could’ve had the whole day off.

Something Smells / Bossy Boots

Something Smells Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode SpongeBob decides he wants to make an ice-cream sundae, but he doesn’t have any of the necessary ingredients. He concocts a sundae with leftover ingredients such as ketchup, onions, and peanuts. This produces a very foul smelling sundae, but SpongeBob eats it anyway. This gives SpongeBob horrid smelling breath. Gary the snail is the first to notice SpongeBob’s foul breath. Being SpongeBob’s day off on Sunday, his agenda is to go say "Hi" to everyone in Bikini Bottom, but he is unaware that he has bad breath. Every person he comes across on the street is immediately repulsed by SpongeBob’s breath, and SpongeBob doesn’t realize why everyone is running away from him.

He comes across Patrick on a park bench and tells him that everyone in Bikini Bottom is acting weird. However, Patrick is unaware of SpongeBob’s bad breath since he has no nose. Patrick suggests that maybe everyone is running away from him because he’s ugly. SpongeBob is devastated at his apparent ugliness, but Patrick convinces him to be confident with his appearance. After boosting SpongeBob’s confidence, they decide to go to the movie theater. When they go to sit down in their seats, SpongeBob asks those sitting next to him not to be distracted by his ugliness, but the people run away from his foul breath. SpongeBob then becomes emotional. Patrick gets angry at the moviegoers for running away from SpongeBob’s ugliness. While Patrick forces everyone in the theater to acknowledge SpongeBob’s ugliness, everyone empties the theater. They then decide to go to the snack bar, but the clerk has run away. SpongeBob remembers that he still had some of his sundae in his pocket, and Patrick eats it. He immediately has to run to the restroom with an upset stomach, where the people in the restroom are repulsed by Patrick’s newly acquired bad breath. Unaware of the situation, Patrick thinks he caught “the ugly” from SpongeBob. SpongeBob finds Patrick crying in the restroom, and he is quick to notice Patrick’s bad breath. Realizing that everyone’s running away from their bad breath and not from their ugliness, the two have no problem in simply smelling bad.

Bossy Boots Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Mr. Krabs’ daughter, Pearl, comes to work at the Krusty Krab during her summer vacation, and she has many ideas for improving the restaurant— all to the delight of Mr. Krabs. The first change she has is to change the name of the Krusty Krab to the Kuddly Krab and transform it into a teen-orientated restaurant. SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs are excited by these changes, but Squidward is not, especially after Pearl introduces their new pink uniforms. Squidward then quits after being mistaken for a female. At first, SpongeBob is all for the changes until he realizes that the Krabby Patty was eliminated from the menu in favor of only salads and tea. Pearl even gets rid of SpongeBob’s grill.

Upset, SpongeBob confronts Mr. Krabs and tells him that Pearl is ruining the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob that she’s really saving the restaurant until he realizes that these new changes have cost him too much money. He then agrees with SpongeBob and decides Pearl needs to be fired, but Mr. Krabs doesn’t want to have to fire his own daughter. He tells SpongeBob that he should fire Pearl instead, and he reluctantly agrees. When SpongeBob pulls Pearl off to the side, Pearl admits that she wants to be fired since her job is cutting into her social life. It works out for both of them, as SpongeBob fires Pearl with Mr. Krabs listening in the other room. Mr. Krabs’ is upset by seeing Pearl fired, but he knows it’s for the best. Pearl leaves the restaurant and jumps into a car with a bunch of her friends to go to the mall. After that, Mr. Krabs gets his money back by selling all the decorations and other things Pearl has bought to SpongeBob for a whole year's pay.

Big Pink Loser / Bubble Buddy

Big Pink Loser Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode A trophy arrives in the mail at Patrick’s house, and he is overjoyed to receive a trophy. He rushes over to SpongeBob’s house to show him his new trophy, but SpongeBob alerts him to the fact that the trophy has SpongeBob’s name on it and that it was accidently delivered to Patrick. He is distraught that he has no trophies, especially after he opens SpongeBob’s closet and a mountain of trophies fall out. SpongeBob tells him that he must earn a trophy, and the easiest way to do that would be to get a job at the Krusty Krab. Patrick gets a job there, but he is unable to perform even the basic essentials of the job, such as answering the phone and sweeping the floor. All the while, Patrick keeps asking if he’s earned a trophy yet. He gets angrier when a delivery man brings a stack of trophies for SpongeBob. SpongeBob takes Patrick back into the kitchen and gives him a simple job opening jars, but even this is a challenge for Patrick.

Patrick then realizes that if he wants to get as many trophies at SpongeBob, he must copy his every move, including dressing and acting just like him. This angers SpongeBob, and in retaliation, he decides to act like Patrick. While they are arguing with each other outside their houses, a truck drops off a trophy for Patrick— a trophy for doing absolutely nothing longer than anybody else. Patrick is jubilant and goes back inside his house to defend his title by doing absolutely nothing.

Bubble Buddy Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode On Leif Ericson Day— no relation with the real American holiday— SpongeBob wants to celebrate with somebody, but Patrick, and Sandy are all gone and Squidward just doesn't want to. Feeling lonely, SpongeBob creates his own friend, Bubble Buddy, which he creates by blowing a bubble. The duo ventures to the Krusty Krab, where SpongeBob introduces Bubble Buddy to the unenthused Squidward. Mr. Krabs gets excited when SpongeBob orders one of everything on the menu for Bubble Buddy, but Squidward is annoyed by having to serve him, especially when SpongeBob says that Bubble Buddy needs a tremendous amount of accommodations. They leave, and Squidward informs Mr. Krab that Bubble Buddy paid for all the food with “bubble money,” which pops in Squidward’s hand, much to their anger.

The duo then goes to Goo Lagoon, where Bubble Buddy stales the other swimmers by taking two hours in the only changing booth. They then begin angering all the other beachgoers, including Pearl and Larry the Lobster. Squidward and Mr. Krabs catch up with Bubble Buddy on the beach, where they organize a mob with the intent of popping the bubble. SpongeBob protests that they shouldn’t pop his friend, but Squidward proceeds to stab the bubble with a sewing pin. However, Bubble Buddy comes to life at the last second. He says that things are getting too crazy for him, and he catches a "bubble taxi" and leaves to the shock of the beachgoers.

Dying for Pie / Imitation Krabs

Dying for Pie Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Mr. Krabs decides to hold an “Employee Brotherhood Day,” in which employees must exchange homemade gifts. Since SpongeBob and Squidward are in actuality the only employees, they must exchange gifts. SpongeBob’s gift to Squidward is an extremely itchy, homemade sweater made of his own eyelashes. Squidward, who isn’t interested in exchanging gifts, throws the sweater back at the heartbroken SpongeBob. SpongeBob then presents Squidward with a sweater that he just made out of his own tears, and, under pressure from Mr. Krabs, Squidward agrees to make a gift for SpongeBob. He goes back into the kitchen, but he has no idea what to make. He then looks out the window and sees a group of pirates trying to load their booty— a giant bag filled with pies— onto their pirate ship. He goes up to the ship and asks if he can purchase a homemade pie, where one of the shipmates informs him that the pies are really just pie-shaped bombs made in a factory. The ship’s captain (voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) says that they really are pies when Squidward waves money and says he wants to buy one.

Squidward takes the “pie” into Mr. Krabs office to show him that he really did make SpongeBob something. Mr. Krabs wants to taste a small portion of the pie, and he carries it over to a table to get some milk. However, he trips in the process, and the small piece of pie explodes, blowing a hole in the wall and sending Squidward and Mr. Krabs flying out of the building. The two are then shocked when they realize that the pie really is a bomb, and it’s still sitting inside the Krusty Krab. They scramble back into the building to find the pie gone and SpongeBob licking his fingers. They presume that SpongeBob ate the pie, and Mr. Krabs scolds Squidward for giving SpongeBob a bomb. Mr. Krabs informs Squidward that there’s nothing they can do, and that SpongeBob will probably explode by sundown. Squidward then feels remorseful and wants to make SpongeBob’s last day eventful by spending time with him to do fun things. Unfortunately for Squidward, SpongeBob already has a large list of fun things that Squidward feels obligated to do, which includes wearing SpongeBob as a face and dressing in a salmon costume. The last thing on the list is for the two of them to watch the sunset together, and Squidward is extremely nervous since he thinks SpongeBob will explode at any moment. When the sun sets, SpongeBob does not blow up, and he reveals that he did not eat the pie and was saving it for the two of them to eat. Squidward becomes angered that he wasted the whole day with SpongeBob for no reason. SpongeBob then trips, accidentally throwing the pie at Squidward’s face, and it explodes. The ensuing explosion is the actual video footage of the Baker explosion from the Operation Crossroads nuclear test.

Imitation Krabs Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode After another failed attempt to steal the Krabby Patty formula, Plankton builds a robot Mr. Krabs to trick SpongeBob and steal the Krabby Patty secret formula. But unfortunately he has to pass by Mr. Krabs first, so he throws out a penny and Mr. Krabs begins to chase it. His plan almost succeeds, but first he has to follow some rules and before Spongebob gave the robot the secret formula, The "real" Mr. Krabs comes back and they both argue about who is the real Mr. Krabs. So Spongebob gave them couple of questions in order to found out who is the real one but the robot succeeds and Mr. Krabs is thrown out. SpongeBob gives the fake Mr. Krabs the formula until he picks up a penny and puts it into the self-destruct coin slot on the stomach of the robot. Soon, Plankton runs back to the Chum Bucket and then it explodes. Spongebob realizes his mistake and takes the real Mr. Krabs back to the Krusty Krab and apologizes.

Wormy / Patty Hype

Wormy Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Sandy Cheeks is going on vacation for a few days and has Patrick and SpongeBob take care of her many pets. They play with Sandy’s pet caterpillar for the rest of the day, and they immediately declare “Wormy” their new best friend. During the night, Wormy morphs into a butterfly. Patrick and SpongeBob run to Sandy’s treedome in the morning, hoping to play with Wormy, but there is a butterfly in the jar instead of the caterpillar. Not knowing what a butterfly is, they presume that it’s a monster that ate Wormy. Afraid, they try to capture the butterfly in fear that it will devour Sandy and the rest of her pets. Although the butterfly is completely harmless, the two are horribly afraid of it and think it might eat them too. SpongeBob then captures the butterfly in a bubble and sets it free from Sandy’s treedome.

Unfortunately, once it leaves the treedome, it floats toward the Krusty Krab. They run and alert Squidward and Mr. Krabs of the monster. They originally laugh at SpongeBob and Patrick for being afraid of this mysterious creature, but they too become scared when they see the butterfly up close. They run off, and SpongeBob thinks that the butterfly ate them. SpongeBob and Patrick then alert the whole town of the approaching monster, and people scatter whenever the butterfly comes near. In the ensuing chaos, the town catches fire and is reduced to rubble. Then, Sandy reappears back from her vacation and says that the town looked like it had been hit by a twister. The butterfly, still in its bubble, floats over to Sandy. She catches the butterfly in a jar to take back home. Immediately, the town jump out of hiding and celebrate Sandy’s catching of the monster; although, she thinks the celebration is a coming home party.

Patty Hype Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Mr. Krabs is confused at why the Krusty Krab hasn’t received a customer in 36 days. The whole restaurant is covered in spider webs, and Mr. Krabs fears he may go out of business. A starving fish crawls up to the door of the Krusty Krab, and SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs are ecstatic to see a customer. Even though the prospective customer is gasping for food and water, he refuses to eat the Krabby Patty, because he said they were boring and that the Krusty Krab had no atmosphere. He then continues to crawl on his way, now gasping for food, water, and atmosphere. Desperate for an idea to draw in customers, Mr. Krabs buries himself in a publicity stunt, but everyone is drawn to another restaurant, the Shell Shack, for its lively atmosphere, which includes a singing dog. Desperate for an idea, Mr. Krabs finally listens to SpongeBob, who had an idea all along. SpongeBob’s idea is that they should sell “Pretty Patties”— colorfully painted versions of the Krabby Patty. At first, Mr. Krabs thinks the green patty is tainted and sets it on fire, but then SpongeBob reveals several different colors on a palette. Mr. Krabs and Squidward find the idea of Pretty Patties highly hilarious and laugh at SpongeBob. Angered, he storms out of the Krusty Krab and says he will open his own restaurant. Then, he meets Patrick, who is also angry, because he can't see his forehead. Then, after SpongeBob tells him that he has an idea, he says, "Me too! Inflatable Pants! What's your idea?" He sets up a makeshift roadside restaurant with Patrick in front of their houses, but they fail to draw in any customers, as SpongeBob is seen in different ages: normal, adulting (sideburns, mustache, and glasses), x-tra-old, and R.I.P. It turns out to be a dream, then someone walks by and asks if they sell food, and the two become overjoyed. SpongeBob says they sell Pretty Patties, and he shows the guy the green patty. He immediately starts laughing at the green patty, and SpongeBob admits that maybe Mr. Krabs was right. The guy then sees that SpongeBob has a purple patty— his favorite color. The guy eats it and proclaims that Pretty Patties are the best idea ever. In no time, SpongeBob and Patrick have thousands of customers, as people are mesmerized by the colorful patties, which now seem to come in all colors (including plaid). Their roadside stand draws in thousands of customers, and Mr. Krabs— whose restaurant is completely covered in dust and spider webs— sees them on the news giving away their money since they have so much of it. Shocked, he rushes to see SpongeBob. He gives SpongeBob the keys to the Krusty Krab in exchange for his roadside stand. The ultimate dream of SpongeBob, he takes the keys as the new owner of the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs then starts selling Pretty Patties. The very next day, however, the customers storm Mr. Krabs and demand a refund. The Pretty Patties apparently caused those who ate them to change to the color of the patties they ate— including one guy who actually turned plaid. Mr. Krabs is chased by a mob of people. When he runs back to the Krusty Krab, he finds himself locked out of the restaurant. It then shows Spongebob rubbing two pickles together resulting in a squeaky noise. Mr Krabs, meanwhile, is being chased by the mob of angry customers in the background.

Grandma's Kisses / Squidville

Grandma's Kisses Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode SpongeBob loves going to his Grandma's house but feels embarrassed after he gets a kiss mark on his forehead and Squidward and everyone else makes fun of him. Next time he goes to Grandma's house, he and Patrick try to show her that they are men. However, after Patrick refuses to be a man after getting cookies and kisses from SpongeBob's Grandma, SpongeBob grows jealous. While walking toward the door, Spongebob cries back to Grandma's house into a river of tears and tells her that he doesn't want to grow and wants to be a baby again and do all the stuff that he had done with Grandma as a baby. But Grandma tells Spongebob that he doesn't have to be a baby to get her love and she gives him a cookie and then a hug. The people of the Krusty Krab are watching Grandma hug Spongebob and all start laughing

Squidville Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode SpongeBob and Patrick are excited to get their new “reef blowers” in the mail, and they immediately go on a spree of destruction, which culminates in the destruction of Squidward’s house. Squidward is finally fed up with their antics and plans to finally move far away. While watching a television from the debris of his own house, he sees a commercial for Tentacle Acres— a gated community exclusively for his own kind. Squidward moves into the community and is overjoyed at being far away from SpongeBob and Patrick, who begin to try to find Squidward and bring him back home.

In his new life, Squidward begins a daily routine of riding his bike, buying “canned bread,” dancing at an interpretive dance academy, and playing in a clarinet quartet. He proclaims the town to be perfect. Of course, every other person in the community looks and acts like Squidward and follows the same daily routine. Over time, Squidward becomes bored with his daily routine and searches for a little excitement. Another person, who was cleaning a public park with a reef blower, leaves his blower behind to go on a break. Squidward is reminded of SpongeBob and Patrick’s antics and begins to play with the reef blower. He starts causing trouble in the park, and the other people look down upon his childish behavior. In spite of the others, he goes on a rampage by sucking up everything.

Meanwhile, Patrick and SpongeBob find the gated community, but their entry is denied by the security guards. However, Patrick had just eaten some fried oyster skins, and the repugnant odor travels through the intercom and causes the guards to pass out and accidentally hit the button to open the gates. SpongeBob and Patrick try to find Squidward but are confused since everyone in the city looks the same. The other townspeople retaliate in protest and corner Squidward with a list of well-organized grievances. Squidward erupts on the others for their lack of excitement, but he is informed that he doesn’t really have to live there. Squidward then blows himself over the community wall with his reef blower, and SpongeBob says that certainly cannot be the real Squidward.

When Santa fails to come, SpongeBob becomes riddled with sorrow, and Squidward revels in remorse. He makes up for mocking SpongeBob's belief in Santa by giving away everything he owns, posing as Santa. The real Santa appears and Squidward questions his sanity.

Survival of the Idiots / Dumped

Survival of the Idiots Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Patrick and SpongeBob rush to Sandy’s treedome only to find that she just started hibernating. As soon as they enter, a television turns on with a video warning them that they should stay away while she’s hibernating. They ignore the video and enter the treedome anyway, only to find that it is snowing inside the treedome. The water from the snow allows them to stay alive in Sandy's treedome. They go inside Sandy’s tree to find Sandy sleeping. Sandy is extremely overweight, as she stored up food for her long hibernation. While Sandy is sleeping, she’s having dreams of old Western outlaws named Dirty Dan and Pinhead Larry, and she is the sheriff. SpongeBob and Patrick accidentally “wake” up the monstrous Sandy, who, while sleepwalking, believes that they are really the outlaws. They decide to put earmuffs on Sandy so she won't wake up again. They leave her tree and start playing outside in the snow. They pretend that they are Dirty Dan and Pinhead Larry, and their noises outside wake up Sandy again. She comes out of her tree and chases SpongeBob and Patrick, who she still believes are the outlaws.

After suffering a beating at the hands of Sandy, Patrick and SpongeBob try to leave the treedome, but the latch on her door is frozen— trapping them inside. They soon succumb to the cold and must find a way to stay warm through the winter. They go back inside Sandy’s tree, but rather than staying warm in there, they decide they can stay warm outside if they use Sandy’s fur. They strip Sandy of all of her fur and go back outside, preparing to stay warm throughout the winter. At that moment, winter suddenly ends, all the snow melts, and Sandy wakes from her hibernation. However, the door is still frozen, and Sandy— fully alert and back into her normal form— comes outside to greet them. Curious as to why Patrick and SpongeBob are wearing her fur, she looks down to realize that she is completely bald. Angered, Sandy decides to wear Patrick and SpongeBob as "punishment" for taking her fur.

Dumped Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode SpongeBob and his pet snail Gary are playing tag. Patrick shows up and wants to join in the game, and SpongeBob tags him it. Patrick tags Gary and proclaims his victory. Gary then starts crawling all over Patrick to the amusement of Patrick and SpongeBob. This goes on for many hours, and it gets dark outside. SpongeBob takes Gary into his house to go to bed, but Gary sneaks over to Patrick at his house. Patrick recommends that he and Gary have a sleepover, and SpongeBob is happy to see his two best friends getting along. The next morning, SpongeBob cheerfully asks Patrick about their sleepover. SpongeBob sees how much fun the two of them are having, and he wants to join in on the fun. However, Gary is completely ignoring SpongeBob and continues to follow Patrick. SpongeBob begins to wonder why Gary is ignoring him and only playing with Patrick. SpongeBob goes to great length to get Gary’s attention, including pretending to close a window on his head, but nothing works. SpongeBob confronts Gary and questions why he’s being ignored and physically carries Gary back to his house. Patrick intervenes and tells SpongeBob that Gary has the right to chose who he wants to be with. Despite SpongeBob’s cries, Gary goes strait to Patrick, and the two of them go back to Patrick’s house.

Later that night, SpongeBob is crying over apparently losing Gary, and he resolves to simply get another pet. The next day, SpongeBob shows up with a pet worm named Rex. Worms in the show act like dogs, just as jellyfish act like bees and snails act like cats. With Patrick and Gary looking on, SpongeBob proclaims that worms are better and more reliable than snails, but Rex sits there panting and ignores SpongeBob's request for tricks. When SpongeBob turns his back, Rex quickly boards a bus and leave. SpongeBob then gets a new snail named Lary (so that he only has change one letter on Gary's food dish), but this snail is very irritable and mean, refusing to play with SpongeBob and even overtaking his bed at night. SpongeBob realizes that Lary is nothing like Gary, and he begins to break down and cry. At that moment, Patrick and Gary show up at SpongeBob’s house to do laundry. Reminiscing that he and Gary used to do laundry together, SpongeBob begins crying excessively and begs Gary to come home. Nothing seems to work. Then, Patrick takes off his shorts and tosses them into the washing machine, and Gary follows Patrick’s shorts into the washing machine. It turns out that Gary only liked Patrick because he wanted the cookie that was in his back pocket. Gary then goes back to SpongeBob.

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III / Squirrel Jokes

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy III Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy are “bravely” packing for vacation. While they are gone on vacation, they have SpongeBob and Patrick watch their Merma-Lair, but they immediately want to touch everything. Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy forbid them from touching anything, and they leave for the week. While going through the halls of the cave, they stumble upon Man Ray, Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy’s fiercest enemy. However, Man Ray is suspended in frozen tartar sauce. Patrick decides to unfreeze Man Ray, but SpongeBob stops him with only Man Ray’s head unfrozen. Man Ray commands them to release him, but they are hesitant to do so since Man Ray is evil. SpongeBob says that he will only let Man Ray go if he were good and not evil, so Man Ray convinces them that he is good. However, once he is released, he affirms his evil and lunges at the two. Just in time, SpongeBob activates Man Ray’s tickle belt to cause him to laugh uncontrollably. Man Ray tries to trick them into unlocking the belt, and he pretends that he’s tired of being evil and wants to be good. SpongeBob and Patrick take up the challenge of turning Man Ray good, while Man Ray just wants to get rid of the belt.

SpongeBob first tries to make Man Ray good by making him returning Patrick’s wallet that he just dropped on the ground. However, when he goes to give Patrick his wallet back, Patrick doesn’t realize that the wallet is his— even after Man-Ray shows him his ID in the wallet. Man Ray gets furious, and SpongeBob tickles him with the belt. For the next lesson, Man Ray is to help Patrick carry a heavy box, but Patrick repeatedly drops it on Man Ray’s foot. He beats Patrick senseless, even after being tickled. Angered, Patrick takes the controller for the tickle belt and starts tickling Man Ray repeatedly. SpongeBob and Patrick argue over the controller until they break it, which causes the tickle belt to malfunction and increase its speed. Man Ray asks them to take off the belt, and they do so since he said "please." Once he is released from the belt, Man-Ray helps himself to Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy’s arsenal of weapons before he leave the cave— intent on ruling Bikini Bottom. Patrick and SpongeBob pursue him.

The evil Man Ray easily pushes his way through SpongeBob and Patrick and has his eyes set on robbing a bank.

The Secret Box / Band Geeks

The Secret Box Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode SpongeBob wants Patrick to go jelly-fishing with him, but Patrick is distracted by his “secret box”— which Patrick claims has life-altering contents within. This immediately sparks SpongeBob’s curiosity, but Patrick won’t show him what’s inside his box. SpongeBob then starts telling Patrick numerous secrets in an attempt to see the contents of Patrick’s box, but SpongeBob’s secrets consists of menial things such as sleeping with his shoes on and wearing three pairs of underwear at once. Patrick isn’t impressed and doesn’t show SpongeBob what’s in his secret box. Patrick then goes ecstatic while looking at the contents of his own box, and this angers SpongeBob. Patrick becomes extremely defensive when SpongeBob tries to look inside his box. Patrick calls their friendship into question but claims that the secret contents of his box are so irresistible— further tempting SpongeBob.

Later that night, SpongeBob continues to dwell over and question what could possibly be in the secret box, including an embarrassing snapshot of him at the Christmas party. He then plots to break into Patrick’s house that night to sneak a peak at the contents. However, in the process, every little move SpongeBob makes causes a lot of noise, and Patrick wakes up. Patrick scolds SpongeBob for trying to see inside his secret box, but he eventually allows him to have a look anyway. As it turns out, the secret box just contains a piece of “secret string.” SpongeBob laughs off the situation and leaves Patrick’s house. Patrick then looks at the string inside his box and pulls it, revealing a secret compartment that contains an embarrassing picture of SpongeBob from the Christmas party.

Band Geeks Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Squidward receives a phone call from his old high school band rival Squilliam Fancyson, who is living out Squidward’s dreams of success. Squilliam says he was supposed to play at the big Bubble Bowl next week but cannot attend. Knowing Squidward has no band, he asks him if his band could perform in his absence. Squilliam then makes fun of Squidward’s lack of success. Squidward, not wanting to admit that he works at a fast food restaurant, says that he does have a band and that they would be glad to play at the Bubble Bowl. Of course, Squidward has no band.

He posts fliers around Bikini Bottom for people to join his marching band in preparation for the Bubble Bowl. He attracts a large group of people, which consists of SpongeBob, Patrick, Plankton, Pearl, Mr. Krabs, Larry the Lobster, Mrs. Puff, Sandy, and many others. Things start off badly when Squidward finds out that nobody in the group really knows how to play any instruments. Squidward himself has minimal music skills. Their rehearsals are unproductive and out of control, and the Bubble Bowl is only days away. The band is very terrible and shows no progress. The day before the Bubble Bowl, Squidward yells at the band for being terrible. This causes the band to turn on itself with their instruments, and a brawl ensues until practice is over. Then, they all calmly leave. Squidward sadly tells them not to show up tomorrow for the Bubble Bowl because of their lack of progress, and he leaves. SpongeBob tells the group they should continue practicing, as to not disappoint Squidward.

The next day, Squidward enters the stadium for the Bubble Bowl, and he is ready to tell Squilliam a lame excuse as to why his band is not there. Squilliam is standing at the entrance waiting (even though he said he could not attend). Squidward tells him he has no band, but unfortunately for him, all of the band members show up and are standing right behind him ready to play. They enter into a glass dome and are lifted up into a realistic football field to perform for a halftime show in front of live humans, making Squidward feel even more worried that he might embarrass himself in front of Squilliam and the humans. Fearing that he may never show his face in public again, Squidward worryingly gives the cue to start playing. Conversely, the band’s introduction is magnificent, and Squidward is shocked. He takes credit for their success when Squilliam appears next to the stage. Squilliam, equally shocked, is transported out of the stadium on a stretcher. The highly-choreographed band plays “Sweet Victory” with SpongeBob (now voiced by David Glen Eisley) singing the lead.

First appearances: Squilliam

Krusty Love / Graveyard Shift

Graveyard Shift Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

Late at night, Squidward is anxiously waiting to leave the Krusty Krab at closing time, but a customer comes up the door and proceeds to order food— despite Squidward pointing out the closing sign. The customer then complains that they must not want his money. Mr. Krabs drops from the ceiling and proclaims the Krusty Krab to now be open 24 hours a day, although Mr. Krabs promptly leaves. SpongeBob is excited to never get to leave work, while Squidward is less then enthused. However, SpongeBob is soon scared by having to take out the trash at nighttime, and Squidward tries to scare SpongeBob into not liking the nightshift anymore. He then proceeds to tell a bogus scary story about the “Hash-Slinging Slasher”— a former Krusty Krab fry cook who accidentally chopped off his own hand while cutting hamburger patties, replaced his hand with a rusty spatula, got hit by a bus, and was fired at his funeral. Squidward says that this person comes back to the Krusty Krab every Tuesday night (the night they are working) to seek revenge. He tells of the three signs signaling the Hash-Slinging Slasher’s arrival: the lights will flicker on and off, the phone will ring with nobody there, and his arrival in the ghost of the bus that ran him over. The story scares SpongeBob incredibly, but he begins laughing when Squidward tells him it was a joke.

Soon, all the late-night customers leave, and Squidward is bored out of his mind, while SpongeBob mops the ceiling with his extra time. Squidward is still mad that the Krusty Krab is open with no business (Open 24 hours a day - what a stupid idea! Who wants a Krabby Patty at 3 in the morning?). Then the lights start flickering on and off, and he blames SpongeBob, who is not responsible. Squidward shrugs it off as not being built to run 24 hours a day. The phone then rings, but nobody is there. At that point, Squidward gets scared and starts to believe his own story. A mysterious bus then stops in front of the Krusty Krab and drops off a shadowy figure— someone they believe is the Hash-Slinging Slasher. They are both very scared, yelling at the person to go away. However, when the person steps into the light, it is just a nerd-being coming in to get a job application. He happened to be carrying his own spatula. He said he called earlier but hung up since he was too nervous. Squidward then wonders who it was that was turning the lights on and off. They all look over to see that lights were being turned on and off by the real life Nosferatu— in reality, Count Orlok played by Max Schreck in the 1922 silent film.

Krusty Love Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Mr. Krabs is sitting in his office at the Krusty Krab when he senses that something is wrong with Squidward’s cash register. The amount in the register is $49.08 and says that its a penny short, and he proceeds to cry. When SpongeBob tells Mr. Krabs that a penny is not that important, Mr. Krabs goes on a rant and explains how money makes the world go around. He then notices Mrs. Puff, SpongeBob’s driving instructor, and he is immediately smitten but too self-conscious to go and talk to her. SpongeBob convinces him to do so, but Mr. Krabs is so nervous that his speech is nothing but incomprehensible babble. SpongeBob translates for Mr. Krabs, and he asks Mrs. Puff if she’d like to go on a date with Mr. Krabs. She agrees.

That night, Mr. Krabs and Mrs. Puff go on a date to the fanciest restaurant in town— an undersea ship in a bottle, complete with masseurs and imported music (a real life human in a scuba suit playing the piano). Mr. Krabs spares no expense on the date, even paying people to carry Mrs. Puff so that she doesn’t have to walk. In the end, Mr. Krabs first bill for the night (the wrong bill) is $100.00 it turns out that his real total on the correct bill is $100,000. He is emotionally distraught that he spent so much money, and he tells SpongeBob that he couldn’t control himself. He's got another date first thing in the morning, So Mr. Krabs' puts SpongeBob in charge of his money so that he won’t spend any. The next day, the two of them go to Mrs. Puff’s house, and SpongeBob has vowed not to give Mr. Krabs any money. However, even before Mrs. Puff answers the door, Mr. Krabs yells at SpongeBob to go buy her flowers. When SpongeBob returns with the flowers, Mr. Krabs yells at him for spending his money. Mr. Krabs cannot control his spending, and he tells SpongeBob that he needs to buy Mrs. Puff many expensive things, such as chocolates, a fur coat, a bedroom furniture set, fine jewelry, and even a washing machine— even before they leave Mrs. Puff’s front yard. The whole time, SpongeBob is trying to save Mr. Krabs money, but Mr. Krabs begs him to buy Mrs. Puff many things that she doesn't need. Then, he yells at SpongeBob every time he returns with the items that Mr. Krabs originally requested.

Finally, SpongeBob explodes on Mr. Krabs for his contradicting nature. Mr. Krabs then blames SpongeBob for being loose with his money, and SpongeBob gives him a verbal scalding before storming off. Mr. Krabs is shocked, and Mrs. Puff says that she cannot accept all of Mr. Krabs gifts. She then requests that she would really like to “go Dutch” on their date.

Procrastination / I'm With Stupid

Procrastination Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

SpongeBob is sitting in Mrs. Puff’s class, and he is excited to hear that they are getting an essay assignment. The assignment is an 800-word essay on what not to do at a stoplight. SpongeBob rushes home to immediately start writing his essay, even though it is a beautiful day outside. He pulls up a chair at his desk and prepares to write what he says will be the greatest essay ever written. All he writes is his name and title, but three hours pass and SpongeBob is still staring at the piece of paper— encountering a major case of writer's block.

He then looks out the window to see everybody is having fun, and Patrick encourages him to come outside and enjoy the day. Unfortunately, he must stay inside and write his essay. He says he has plenty of time since it’s only six o’clock, but he has no idea what to write. In order to boost his energy, he starts exercising but soon gets easily distracted, even by the rhythmic squeaking of his chair. Gary the snail then comes in the room, and SpongeBob is very persistent in feeding Gary to take up time, even though he says he’s not hungry. After Gary eats, SpongeBob says that he can’t write his essay with a dirty kitchen, and he proceeds to clean the entire kitchen— even his dirty garbage can. After that’s done, he is shocked to see that it is now ten o’clock, and his essay hasn’t even been started. He then begins writing his whole essay, but in actuality, all he writes is the word “the” and then says it’s time for a break with only 799 words to go on his essay. He takes a break to call Patrick who is sleeping, but Patrick says that he knows that he was just called as a distraction so SpongeBob wouldn’t have to write his essay. Every little thing distracts SpongeBob from writing his essay, including the eraser shavings on his paper and his sudden hunger. Although it’s late at night, a package is delivered, and SpongeBob proceeds to talk to the mail carrier, who then asks if SpongeBob should be writing his paper. SpongeBob walks by the TV to see that his procrastination has made the news, and he destroys his TV.

He then starts hallucinating as midnight approaches. He imagines that his pants have run away, and he locks himself out of his house, with his house burning down— his house yelling at SpongeBob for wasting time and not writing his paper. SpongeBob suddenly wakes up to see that it’s nine o’clock the following morning, and class starts in five minutes. He then gets a surge of ideas for his essay on what not to do at a stoplight, such as feeding your snail, making a sandwich, and all the other things he did that night instead of writing his essay. He rushes to class to excitingly give his essay to Mrs. Puff, but the class is empty. Mrs. Puff arrives to say that class was cancelled for the day and so was the assignment— stating that they were just going to take a field trip to a stoplight instead. SpongeBob rips his paper in half, as well as ripping himself in half just like his paper.

• Second appearance of Boating Students.

I'm with Stupid Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode Patrick is frantically cleaning his house when SpongeBob arrives. He questions Patrick’s sudden home improvements, and Patrick yells at him for not having any responsibilities. He then proceeds to cry, but SpongeBob doesn’t know why— thinking he just forgot how to eat again. Patrick then shows SpongeBob a letter he got from his parents saying that they are coming for a visit. Patrick says that his parents think he is very dumb, and he said that he is going to let his parents down again. SpongeBob agrees to help out Patrick by pretending to be dumber than him when his parents arrive. The next day, his parents arrive, and they are happy to know that Patrick at least recognized them. They start to treat Patrick like a child, even helping him back inside his house in case he forgot where the inside of his house was. His dad is even happy to see that Patrick actually put the drinks in a glass this time.

Then, the doorbell rings, and it is SpongeBob— only this time he is acting incredibly dumb and wearing a protective helmet (in actuality, his karate helmet). SpongeBob tries to shake hands with Patrick’s dad, but SpongeBob stares blankly and acts as though he doesn’t know how to shake his dad’s hand. All the while, Patrick is encouraging SpongeBob to act dumb and invites him to stay for dinner. SpongeBob constantly makes nonsense noises and bounces around Patrick’s house to the amusement of his parents. Patrick then starts to make fun of SpongeBob’s normal appearance, including his attire, physique, and apparent use of eye liner. SpongeBob then calls out Patrick’s name in disgust and tells Patrick he wants to talk to him in the kitchen. All the while, Patrick is overexploiting SpongeBob’s fictional stupidity to his parents in order to make it seem like he is smarter. In the other room, SpongeBob tries to reassure Patrick that it is just a rouse and part of the plan, but Patrick is taking it too seriously. SpongeBob takes off his helmet and approaches Patrick’s parents as his normal self. He tells them that he is not stupid and that it was just an act. However, Patrick’s parents believe that Patrick was behind SpongeBob’s sudden intellect. SpongeBob gets annoyed and starts to demonstrate his intelligence, but Patrick’s parents give full credit to Patrick for teaching SpongeBob. They all begin laughing excessively at SpongeBob to the point where he can’t take it anymore, and he busts out of Patrick’s house.

Patrick’s dad then says that he has newfound appreciation of Patrick after seeing how dumb SpongeBob was. Patrick’s parents then call each other by name, and Patrick suddenly realizes that these two are not his parents. At that moment, Squidward rings the doorbell and presents Patrick with two more starfish who are Patrick’s real parents. The newly revealed fake parents then realize that they never had a son, and they nonchalantly walk away. Patrick decides to just act like his normal (dumb) self to his real parents, and they all start laughing.

Sailor Mouth / Artist Unknown

Sailor Mouth Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

It’s closing time at the Krusty Krab — the worst time of the day according to Mr. Krabs. Before he lets SpongeBob leave, he tells him to take out the garbage. At the dumpster, SpongeBob is amused by “dumpster writing.” He reads all the things written on the dumpster and comes across one that says “Krabs is a…” He doesn’t understand what the last word is, but it is continuously bleeped out with dolphin chirps. Patrick tells SpongeBob that the word is a "sentence enhancer" that makes people sound fancy. The two then begin saying the word a lot. The next day, SpongeBob goes to work and tells the customers that it's a nice ******* day. He gets on the intercom and tells the customers the daily specials while continuously saying the word. When Squidward comes in, SpongeBob ask him “How the ***** are you?” All of the customers are disgusted, and they promptly leave. Squidward tells Mr. Krabs that all of the customers were scared away by SpongeBob’s new word. Mr. Krabs is outraged and tells them the word they are using is a "bad word." Knowing that they just said a bad word, the two apologize and leave. They promise not to say the word anymore.

Later that day, they are playing a game of “Eels and escalators,” similar to Snakes and ladders. Patrick is winning by continuously rolling escalators with the dice, while SpongeBob keeps rolling eels— coming ever closer to losing. In his final roll before losing, he rolls escalators, but the dice suddenly roll to reveal eels. Angered, SpongeBob shouts the "bad word" (dolphin chirping). Patrick says he’s going to run and tell Mr. Krabs, but he accidentally says the word that they weren’t supposed to say. They both race to the Krusty Krab to tell on each other. SpongeBob gets there first but is hesitant to say the word they just said to Mr. Krabs. In arguing to Mr. Krabs, they blurt out the word, and Mr. Krabs punishes them by making them paint the Krusty Krab. When he brings them the painting supplies, he stubs his toe on a rock and begins cursing excessively while saying all 13 bad words. Because of that, Patrick and SpongeBob run to tell Mr. Krabs’ mother, Mama Krabs. The three of them arrive at Mama Krabs’ door, and they all start cursing the words that they just said, in addition to many more. Shocked, Mama Krabs faints. Mr. Krab's says that they should be ashamed for "making an old lady faint with your sailor talk!" Mama Krabs finally wakes up and is ashamed and says, "If you're going to talk like sailors, then you're going to work like sailors!" and she makes them paint her house as a punishment. While walking back into her house, she stubs her toe on a rock, and a horn sounds to censor her foul language. However, she wasn’t really cursing. It was the horn of Old Man Jenkins, who happened to be driving by in his jalopy.

Artist Unknown Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

Squidward is excited to be teaching a new art class at the local recreation center, and he views it as an incredibly honor for the people of Bikini Bottom. Squidward believes that he will someday go down in history as a spectacular artist— although it is a running gag in the show that Squidward really has no talent. Unfortunately, for Squidward, SpongeBob is his only student, but Squidward agrees to teach him anyway. He tells SpongeBob that being an artist is a lot of work, and he assures SpongeBob that he has no talent and that Squidward has all the talent. Squidward starts by drawing an awkward circle on the chalkboard, but SpongeBob shows him up by drawing a perfect circle on his paper. Squidward is shocked and demands to see SpongeBob’s techniques. SpongeBob is completely unaware that he actually possesses amazing artistic skills. SpongeBob also displays advanced origami skills and puzzle creation. Squidward shifts his focus toward sculpting, and the two go in front of their own block of marble. However, when Squidward so much as touches the block with his chisel, the whole thing disintegrates into a pile a dust. SpongeBob does the same thing, but his block turns into an exact replica of Michelangelo’s David statue. Envious, Squidward yells at SpongeBob for his hastily made sculpture— proclaiming that it can’t be considered art unless it took more time to make. Squidward says that SpongeBob did not have the nose right on the statue either, and he attaches a nose similar to his own on the statue.

SpongeBob breaks down and apologizes for arrogantly shunning Squidward’s lessons. Crying, he proceeds to leave the room but the door suddenly flies open, knocking SpongeBob out of the window and into a garbage truck on its way to the dump. The person entering the door is Monty P. Moneybanks— a world famous art collector. Ecstatic, Squidward shows off his own art to a disgusted Moneybanks, who laughs at Squidward’s art. He then sees the statue that SpongeBob had just created, and he proclaims it to be the greatest piece of art in the world (except for the nose that Squidward had added). He said that he will bestow fame and fortune upon the artist responsible, and Squidward takes credit. Moneybanks says he will make Squidward immortal, and Squidward attempts to carry the statue out to Moneybanks’ car. However, the statue is too tall to fit through the door, and Squidward accidentally knocks the statue’s head off, where it shatters to dust. Moneybanks says it shouldn’t be a problem for Squidward to make another statue. Moneybanks agrees to come back tomorrow, and Squidward must desperately find SpongeBob at the dump (where some of Squidward’s art is found).

Squidward convinces SpongeBob to give art another chance, but SpongeBob believes he is a disgrace. He then decides to follow art “by the book,” and he loses all of his innate talents; he can’t even draw a circle anymore. Squidward tells him to forget about the book, but SpongeBob’s talents are lost. When SpongeBob tries to sculpt a new statue, his block of marble is reduced to a pile of dust with one strike of the chisel, and he adds a Squidward nose to the dust and proclaims it art— much to the dismay of Squidward. Squidward then loses his sanity and starts to destroy the room. SpongeBob then retreats back to the dump. In the process of destroying everything, Moneybanks arrives again. He shockingly asks, “Who is responsible for this?” Squidward says that the janitor is responsible and then storms out of the room. Unbeknownst to Squidward, while he was destroying several blocks of marble, he inadvertently recreated SpongeBob’s version of David without even knowing it. After passing down credit to the janitor, Moneybanks proclaims the janitor to be the greatest artist who has ever lived.

Jellyfish Hunter / The Fry Cook Games

Jellyfish Hunter Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

SpongeBob is hunting in Jellyfish Fields, trying to catch and name every jellyfish. In addition to that, he likes collecting jellyfish jelly (similar to honeybee’s honey). He comes across a blue jellyfish— the only such colored jellyfish— which he has never been able to catch. Therefore, he refers to the elusive jellyfish as “No Name.” He tries hard to catch the jellyfish, but it escapes every time. The next day at the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob is taking his lunch break, and he brought with him a jar of jellyfish jelly to put on a Krabby Patty. Another customer overhears SpongeBob enjoying his sandwich and asks to try some of the jelly on his hamburger. The customer is so ecstatic about how great it tastes that he breaks out into a song and dance and gives all the other customers jelly on their hamburgers. All of the customers love the jelly. Mr. Krabs sees it as a way to make lots of money by selling the “Jelly Patty.” He convinces SpongeBob to catch jellyfish to harvest their jelly. He wants so much jelly for the new sandwich that SpongeBob eventually captures every jellyfish in the now-deserted Jellyfish Field— except No Name.

Later that night, No Name, who is the only remaining jellyfish, follows SpongeBob home. In scary movie fashion, No Name makes a prank phone call and cuts the electricity in SpongeBob’s house, and he gets scared. To calm his nerves, he goes to the kitchen to see a Jelly Patty with blue jelly. Realizing that the blue jelly must’ve came from No Name, he reveals himself and catches SpongeBob by putting him in a glass jar. He carries SpongeBob to a factory operated by Mr. Krabs. In this factory, Mr. Krabs is torturing the jelly out of the jellyfish for his own profit. Outraged, SpongeBob and No Name break in and demand that Mr. Krabs cease operation of the factory and let the jellyfish go. Mr. Krabs accidentally releases the jellyfish from their chamber, and they proceed to electrocute Mr. Krabs, who foolishly tries to escape on an exercise bike. The jellyfish then retreat out of the factory, and the badly burned Mr. Krabs says he will take the Jelly Patty off of the menu. At that point, No Name allows SpongeBob to capture him, and he renames the blue jellyfish “Friend.”

The Fry Cook Games Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode At the Fast Food Coliseum, the Fry Cook Games commence— a reference to the Summer Olympics. The main event is a bitter rivalry between Mr. Krabs and Plankton— fast food competitors and former Fry Cook Games athletes. However, at this year’s event, SpongeBob is now representing the Krusty Krab at the games. While getting warmed up, Patrick approaches and is excited when SpongeBob says he’s training for the games. Patrick wants to play, but he can’t since he doesn’t work at a restaurant. SpongeBob tells Patrick to go home after he makes fun of SpongeBob’s profession as a fry cook. They start arguing, and the argument culminats in making fun of each other’s color— SpongeBob being yellow and Patrick pink. Patrick vows to get a job as a fry cook and beat SpongeBob in the games. Plankton arrives at the stadium and introduces a new representative for the Chum Bucket. As it turns out, Plankton introduces Patrick as the new fry cook for the Chum Bucket, and Patrick is now able to compete in the games. Plankton and Mr. Krabs try to convince their respective competitors that they are really not friends with each other in order to motivate them for the games and turn them against each other.

The first event is the deep-fry pole vault over a vat of grease. The next event is the chocolate high-dive, in which they imitate a form of ice cream by diving into a vat of chocolate. The two are equally skilled in these events. Many more events are followed, but the score is tied going into the final event: bun wrestling. The two are wrestling in a ring on top of a giant hamburger bun, and they both reveal incredibly muscular bodies beneath their wrestling robs. The fight culminates with the two grappling with each other, repeatedly yelling how much they hate each other. When they begin struggling too much, they both rip their pants. Patrick turns out to be wearing yellow underwear, and SpongeBob is wearing pink underwear. Realizing that the color of their underwear matches the other’s color, they realize that they really do care about each other. The both walk out of the ring, ending the match much to the dismay of Plankton and Mr. Krabs, who wanted to see them kill each other. As they are walking out to scores of boos from the audience, Patrick says that his yellow underwear was white when he bought them.

He scolds Squidward for giving a customer change and even yells at him for wasting time breathing. Mr. Krab then gives Squidward and SpongeBob their paychecks. However, Squidward is immediately angered to see deductions in his salary, which includes a $2 charge for simply existing, among others. SpongeBob goes along with Mr. Krabs scheme, and he attempts to give his money back to Mr. Krabs. Squidward convinces SpongeBob that the two of them should go on strike in order to get better benefits and treatment. SpongeBob is happy to go on strike, but he doesn’t even know what that means. He approaches Mr. Krabs and happily tells him that they are going on strike. However, they end up fired instead, and SpongeBob is crying excessively while they stand outside of the Krusty Krab.

Squidward angrily tells SpongeBob that they need to go on strike to get their jobs back. Squidward tries to teach SpongeBob how to strike. First, he tells him to throw his hat on the ground and stomp on it, but SpongeBob can’t since the hat is his friend. Squidward says he threw his hat on the ground, but he ends up getting a ticket for littering. Squidward then tries to show SpongeBob how to make a picket sign, but SpongeBob keeps getting it wrong. His first attempt at making a picket sign turns out to resemble a picket fence, and his second one shows a person picking his nose. He then makes a sign that inadvertently says “Krusty Krab is funfair” instead of unfair, and a slew of customers run inside for the Krusty Krab funfair. Squidward tells SpongeBob that he’s a terrible striker, and he tells SpongeBob to go stand behind a telephone pole. He gets on a megaphone and harangues an approaching crowd on the misdeeds of the Krusty Krab, but the audience doesn’t really know what he’s talking about. The crowd decides that their support is making them hungry, and they go eat at the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs arrives on the scene to tell them that he is actually getting more business with the two of them on strike, and this turns SpongeBob against him.

SpongeBob is brainwashed by Squidward into the striking cause, but he takes things too far. SpongeBob tells Mr. Krab that they will strike forever, but the thought of being united with SpongeBob forever frightens Squidward. He realizes he has to end the strike in order to get rid of his alliance with SpongeBob. He goes to rush to the Krusty Krab, but Mr. Krabs is already at Squidward’s door begging him to take his job back since the teenagers he hired to replace them are driving him crazy. Realizing he has the upper-hand, Squidward begins the negotiations with Mr. Krabs late into the night. However, SpongeBob feels the need to impress Squidward by destroying the Krusty Krab— reducing it to a pile of rubble. The next morning, Squidward and Mr. Krabs approach the now demolished Krusty Krab with SpongeBob still there, but Mr. Krabs doesn’t even realize that the building is destroyed until he makes his way to where his office used to be. In order to pay off the damages to the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs tells them they will now be working for him forever, and Squidward is again frightened to have to be working with SpongeBob forever. SpongeBob, of course, is incredibly happy. Note: A running gag in the episode is that whenever Squidward hears the word "forever", he is "hypnotized."

Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm Template:Infobox SpongeBob episode

SpongeBob is sound asleep at night when a giant creature rumbles toward him and devours half of his house. When he wakes up, he is frightened to see that he was just attacked by a fictional Alaskan bull worm, and he alerts the town the next morning. The bull worm is a giant pink worm that has an insatiable appetite toward eating everything. When yelling out suggestions on how to get rid of the worm, Patrick says they should push the whole town to another location, but Squidward says that’s a terrible idea. Sandy Cheeks appears and tells the townspeople that she will capture the bull worm, because it ate her tail when she had her back turned. Calling the bull worm a coward, she says she will seek revenge. However, SpongeBob is fearful of Sandy’s safety, and he tries to talk her out of it while the rest of the town cheers for her. In the meantime, they take up Patrick’s idea and move the whole town by simply pushing it.

Sandy tells SpongeBob that she’s too tough since she’s from Texas and that SpongeBob is just scared. She insists that she’s going to catch the bull worm, and she pushes her way through a protesting SpongeBob. She soon comes across the bull worm in a cave, and in rodeo-fashion, she tries to wrangle the bull worm. She goes into what she thinks is a cave where the bull worm is, and a fight ensues off-screen. Sandy is cheerful that she’s winning, but SpongeBob is trying to tell her that the creature she’s wrangling is really just the worm’s tongue. She subdues the tongue but looks up to see the rest of the massive bull worm hovering over her. The Alaskan bull worm starts to chase Sandy and SpongeBob, but SpongeBob is arguing for Sandy to admit that he was right all along, even though they’re inches away from being devoured. She admits that she was wrong, and the two of them manage to jump on top of the chasing bull worm. They continue riding the bull worm in triumph until they realize that it’s headed right off of a cliff. They manage to jump off of the bull worm just in time before it plunges over the cliff. However, at the bottom of the cliff, the townspeople finally rest the town in its new location after pushing. Just as they do that, the bull worm crushes the newly located town.
