Boi Page #9

(Then he saw SpongeBob's shiny black shoe coming down at him)

Plankton:

Wait a minute, no!

(Plankton tried with all his might to hold up SpongeBob by his shoe, but he just didn't have enough strength. SQUISH!)

(Not realizing what had happened. SpongeBob was still straining to reach the open window)

SpongeBob:

Just a little higher, Plankton.

(Then he realized Plankton wasn't answering him)

SpongeBob:

Plankton?

(When SpongeBob lifted his shoe and looked at its sole, he saw Plankton flattened across it)

Plankton:

Why don't you boost me up instead?

SpongeBob:

Oh, yeah, good thinking.

(SpongeBob lifted his shoe up to the open window and scraped Plankton off. Groaning, Plankton landed on the windsill. Then he jumped through the window into the Chum Bucket)

(INT. CHUM BUCKET — NIGHT. As soon as he hit the floor, he ran to the small door and opened it)

Plankton:

(WHISPERING) Come on, SpongeBob, come on!

(SpongeBob squeezed through the small door and into the restaurant)

SpongeBob:

We're in!

(Then he swung the door closed. SLAM!)

Plankton:

Shh! There's a guard over there.

(Plankton pointed across the room at the guard. It was Patrick, snoring loudly as he slept in a chair by another door)

Plankton:

Let's take the key from around his neck. We're gonna have to be very quiet. Let's walk on the tips of our toes.

(Plankton raised himself up on the tips of his toes—which SpongeBob had never before—and skittered across the floor. There was a high, tinkling sound)

(Patrick stirred in his sleep. Plankton froze, but the high tinkling sound continued. He looked back and saw SpongeBob playing a tiny piano)

Plankton:

Will you stop playing that tiny piano? (WHISPERING) You're gonna get us caught.

(SpongeBob sheepishly put the tiny piano away)

SpongeBob:

Sorry.

(They both tiptoed over to Patrick, who was still snoring. The key was on his chest, hanging on a chain around his neck)

Plankton:

Now just reach over and grab it.

(SpongeBob took a step closer to Patrick and stepped on a floorboard. CREAK!)

Patrick:

Halt! Who goes there? (SNORING)

(But then he fell right back to sleep)

(SpongeBob gently grabbed the key and pulled it down)

Plankton:

Stop! Pull it over his head!

SpongeBob:

Oh.

(He lifed the key up toward Patrick's head, but the chain got caught in the folds of Patrick's fat neck)

Plankton:

Stop, stop, stop!

(SpongeBob let go of the key)

Plankton:

Let me get up there.

(Plankton jumped onto Patrick and climbed up to the key. He yanked the chain free, but then the key slid down Patrick's chest, heading straight for his belly button. Plankton leapt onto the key and rode it like a snowboard)

(He headed into Patrick's belly button. Just as he and the key were about to completely disappear into the depths of Patrick's navel, SpongeBob plucked them out, covered in gross lint))

(They had the key! Success!)

(Except—at that very moment, Patrick woke up)

(When he saw SpongeBob and Plankton, he pulled out a giant whistle and inhaled, ready to blow a mighty blast!)

SpongeBob:

(tackling Patrick) No!

(The two buddies struggled. Patrick kept trying to put his lips on the whistle, but SpongeBob kept stopping him)

SpongeBob:

Plankton, help! (GRUNTS) I'll rock him, you tell him a bedtime story.

(SpongeBob flipped Patrick over onto his lap. Plankton jumped onto Patrick's belly and talked quickly)

Plankton:

(STAMMERS) Once upon a time there was a big fat pink idiot who went to sleep. The end!

Patrick:

Nice try, but it's gonna take more than that to...

(And he fell fast asleep)

(SpongeBob and Plankton lost no time using the key to open the door. They burst through to find...)

(...Karen chained to the wall!)

Karen:

I told you, I don't have the formula, you monsters!

Plankton:

Hey, baby, how are you?

(Karen was thrilled to see her husband)

Karen:

Plankton! My hero! You must need something, otherwise you wouldn't have come back.

SpongeBob:

Plankton has a plan to save Bikini Bottom. (unlocking Karen's chains)

(If Karen could have shaken her head, she would have)

Karen:

It doesn't matter, Plankton. Krabs knows all your plans. He's been through my hard drive looking for the secret formula.

(Plankton hung his head)

Plankton:

Eh, I never had it.

(Then he looked up and smiled)

Plankton:

But we're going to get it. We're gonna go back in time to steal the formula before it disappeared.

Karen:

Time travel! Where are you gonna find a computer that can do that?

(Instantly, her powerful computer brain gave her the answer)

Karen:

Wait a minute!

(EXT. CHUM BUCKET, BIKINI BOTTOM — NIGHT. Outside, SpongeBob and Plankton sneaked away from the Chum Bucket carrying Karen's head)

SpongeBob:

I've never carried a head before.

PLANKTON:

You'll get used to it.

SpongeBob:

It's still warm. (GASPS)

(They left the angry guards behind, still beating the tire)

Fish Guard:

So you won't talk, huh? Let some air out of him.

(INT. TACO HAUS — NIGHT. At an abandoned Mexican-German restaurant called Taco Haus, SpongeBob carefully set Karen's head on the floor)

(SpongeBob looked around at the dusty restaurant)

SPONGEBOB:

Is this where we're gonna build our time machine?

(Plankton nodded)

PLANKTON:

Sure. It's got everything we need. A photo booth. A cuckoo clock. Some day-old chips. Now all we have to do is build it.

(Seeing another opportunity for a song about teamwork, SpongeBob happily pulled out his trusty pitch pipe and blew into it)

Plankton:

Oh, no, you don't! (GRUNTS)

SpongeBob:

Hey, my pitch pipe!

Plankton:

Uh, I need it. For the time machine.

SpongeBob:

Oh. Okay.

(Plankton took the pitch pipe into another room. WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! It sounded as though he was smashing something with a hammer. FLUSH! Then it sounded like he was flushing something down a toilet)

Plankton:

Installed!

(And so, working together, along with Karen's powerful brain, using the crummy materials they found in the abandoned restaurant, Plankton and SpongeBob built a time machine. When they were done, Plankton spun the hands on the cuckoo clock, and an engine roared to like. VRROOM!)

Plankton:

I did it!

SpongeBob:

(correcting him) No, we did it!

Plankton:

Wait. We did do it. As a tee-am.

SpongeBob:

A team.

Plankton:

Whatever.

BOTH:

(SINGING) Working together in harmony

Side by side, we can reach our dreams

'Cause nothing's impossible

When we're a team

(SpongeBob carries Karen into the time machine)

SpongeBob:

Okay, now for the brains!

(INT. PHOTO BOOTH TIME MACHINE — NIGHT. He pushed Karen into the opening and she powers up)

Karen:

Okay, Plankton, this is it. It's gonna take all my processors and energy to power this time machine. So if you have anything you wanna tell me, you better tell me now.

Plankton:

Well, Karen... I know I've taken you for granted all these years, and I, I just wanted to say, I'm glad you're on my tee-am.

Karen:

Oh, Sheldon, that's the sweetest thing you've ever...

(Plankton flips a switch and Karen shuts off and her screen flashes 12:00 AM, Plankton starts to cry)
