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.
Mr. Krabs' customers abandon him when SpongeBob starts cooking at home; when Plankton gets kicked out of the house, SpongeBob must teach him how to win his computer wife back.
SpongeBob and Patrick take Squidward jellyfishing; SpongeBob is a victim of Plankton's scheme.
After a misunderstanding, SpongeBob and Patrick try to prove their life insurance protects them from any danger; when SpongeBob blows himself a bubble boat, everyone in town starts to want one.
