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 ties a knot. The Flying Dutchman knows how to ties many different kinds of knots, but he proclaims he cannot tie shoes since he hasn’t worn them in over 5,000 years. He then disappears, and SpongeBob crawls back to his house. He is met by his pet Gary the snail, 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.

Merriwether Williams|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, which means SpongeBob has to do 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 SpongeBob that he 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.

Merriwether Williams|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.-

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. 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.

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.

Merriwether Williams|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 nuclear test.

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 monster 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 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 celebrates Sandy’s catching of the monster; although, she thinks the celebration is for her returning from her vacation.

Doug Lawrence|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 a 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. Krab’s 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.

Merriwether Williams|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 squids. 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 squid 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 squid, 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 squids 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 squids 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.-

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, she goes back to bed. 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 then 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.-

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.-

Merriwether Williams|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.-

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.

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 bill for the night is $100,000. He is emotionally distraught that he spent so much money, and he tells SpongeBob that he couldn’t control himself. He plans on going on another date the next night, and 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. 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.-
