A square yellow sponge named SpongeBob SquarePants lives in a pineapple with his pet snail, Gary, in the city of Bikini Bottom on the floor of the Pacific Ocean. He works as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab. During his time off, SpongeBob has a knack for attracting trouble with his starfish best friend, Patrick. Arrogant octopus Squidward Tentacles, SpongeBob's neighbor, dislikes SpongeBob because of his childlike behavior.

SpongeBob and Patrick go to see a horror film; SpongeBob holds a séance at the Krusty Krab to learn a long-lost sandwich recipe.

SpongeBob can't drive, but he learns one does not need a license to operate a self-driving car; Patrick thinks he is an old man, so SpongeBob tries to remind him how much fun being a child can be.

Plankton joins the League of E.V.I.L.; SpongeBob and Patrick take Squidward on a plane to a tropical resort.

The Flying Dutchman takes up residence at SpongeBob's house; the beneficiaries of Sandy's treedome pay her a visit.
