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.

Plankton disguises himself as SpongeBob's grandmother; Mr. Krabs uses Gary to find spare change.

SpongeBob is desperate to meet his newest hero, Kenny the Cat; Mr. Krabs tries to scare Squidward into working harder.

SpongeBob house-sits for Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy; SpongeBob is a comedy sensation when he tells mean jokes.

SpongeBob befriends a sentient Krabby Patty whose only wish is to be eaten; Rube hosts an episode of "FUN-Believable! With Rube" where he explores little known oddities and attractions around Bikini Bottom.
