ONE
Lunchtime at the Krusty Krab.
TWO
The French narrator explains how nice it is. Suddenly the lighting goes red and all the fish panic. Krabs at the cash register calls up to Squidward who’s in a crow’s nest (lol — wut?) with a spyglass.
Ah, it’s a Plankton episode! He’s stealing a Krabby Patty. With a laser he cuts a tiny hole in the wall and escapes outside. Little robot arms from a backpack carry the patty as Plankton says, “I win!”
THREE
The KK crew stands around. He got away. But, no. Spongebob rips off his skin to reveal another Spongebob skin. He’s a superhero to the rescue. Through town he chases the rogue patty.
FOUR
Outside of a Magic Shop Spongebob confronts a patty in disguise with moustache and glasses. (Wut — lol?) Plankton gives up, returning the patty, and laying out a sob story about the Chum Bucket, which will never be as good as the KK.
Okay, weirdness. Spongebob seems sympathetic, but then all the townspeople arrive and call Plankton, as he mopes away, a loser. Spongebob is given a donut-ring trophy (wut?) and cheered. He still feels sorry, though.
At the Chum Bucket, Spongebob arrives, determined to be Plankton’s friend. Now it’s getting funny. Plankton would rather have a customer.
SWITCH
Karen the Computer Wife advises Plankton to “Befriend the Spongebob” and take the formula.
FIVE
They go jellyfishing. Plankton wants to know when they eat the jellyfish. “We throw them back, but watch out for the stingers.” “Stingers?” He envisions city-wide mayhem. Ah, Plankton.
Spongebob breaks out the “FUN” song. Plankton adds his own version.
Hahaha! F is for fire, U is for uranium, N is for no survivors. His miniature evilness cracks me up.
Spongebob dances Plankton like a puppet and suddenly he’s overcome. “I feel all tingly inside.” Montage of a joyful song.
Insert Mr. Krabs with the spyglass. A happy Plankton bothers him.
Bubble-wipe to the Chum Bucket. Inside Plankton changes behind a screen, cheerfully saying he frolicked through the flowers. Karen brings him back to reality. “You’re going native. Look at yourself.”
SIX
He wears overlarge square pants.
The power of The Spongebob and his gear is the mirror, apparently.
SEVEN
Cut to Krabs looking in the kitchen window at Spongebob cooking. Where’s Plankton? Scheming. But maybe he’s changed! Aha! Photo evidence of Spongebob and Plankton dancing together!
Krabs’ refusal to believe that Plankton can change is the decision moment.
EIGHT
Plankton comes through the door. “Yoohoo!” So funny.
Krabs, putting a steamy Krabby Patty on the table, takes Spongebob away to speak in private. As Plankton resists, Krabs pushes the plate closer and even puts a fan on it to blow the delicious steam at him. Spongebob takes Plankton away from such distrustful degradation. They have plans to go to the movies.
After they leave the Krabby Patty on the table falls over, revealing it’s only a cut-out prop. Aha! Krabs chases after them.
At the theater they eat popcorn. Krabs takes over the projector, telling everyone to check their companion’s pockets. There is indeed a large Krabby Patty in Plankton’s tiny pocket.
Spongebob cries. Plankton cries. And then he runs off with the patty.
But he ran behind the movie screen, which is just a drape over a concrete wall. Plankton is splat. Krabs and Spongebob leave together to go enjoy a fresh Krabby Patty.
NINE
Plankton, flicked away, lands among a handful of jelly beans. His kidney-shaped little body blends in perfectly. It’s a dash to not get eaten.
