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.

In prehistoric Bikini Bottom, SpongeGar, Patar, and Squog discover fire.

SpongeBob gets embarrassed when his grandmother kisses him in public; Squidward leaves Bikini Bottom.

While in prison, Plankton teams up with his fellow inmates to break out of jail and steal the secret Krabby Patty formula; SpongeBob replaces his broken spatula with one from Plankton.

Frustrated that he's seen as cute instead of evil, Plankton builds a robot to punish anyone who says "aww!"; Patrick crushes the mailman, so he and SpongeBob deliver the mail around Bikini Bottom.
