[captain laughs heartily]

[piccolo playing]

[Mr. Krabs] , , ,

, ,

... Ow!

[groans forcefully]

[whimpers]

Oh... I split me nail.

Oh, that looks terrible.

Hello?

Guinevere, it's an emergency.

No, I haven't been biting them.

No. Can you just schedule me in?

Now? A manicure

in the middle of the day?

But what if the guys see me?

Yes, I want my nails

to look their best.

I'll be right there.

[rapid footsteps]

[sonar beeps]

[snoring]

-Whoa!

-Ahoy, sir. Where are you going?

Uh... [chuckles]

It's, uh... It's a secret.

[gasps] You have a secret?

Everybody's got a secret. And

mine's going to take minutes.

Maybe if she can

spruce up me cuticles.

Aye-aye, sir.

And who will be in charge

while you're gone?

Eh...

-[snoring]

-Well, not Squidward.

Don't know him. Too lumpy.

[heavenly music plays]

OK, OK. You're in charge.

What?

You're in charge.

For the next minutes.

-I'm in charge?

-Yeah. Sure. Why not?

[hums anxiously]

You OK, boy?

[whines]

[shouts happily]

[triumphant music plays]

I won't let you down, sir.

Ah, sheesh.

I'll be back in minutes.

[snoring]

[clears throat]

-[gasps] Oh, what the...

-Nap time's over, Squidward.

Now, what do you say

we work real hard

until Mr. Krabs comes back, hmm?

Krabs is gone?

Yup. And I'm in charge

for the next minutes.

-Wow.

-[giggles]

Yeah, I'm kind of a big deal

around here.

I guess that's why Krabs

put me in... charge.

Charge.

♪ Charge ♪

Wake me up when I care.

-Do you care now?

-No.

[gasps, chuckles] Everything

is under control, people.

Go back to your Krabby Patties.

Nothing a temporary man

in charge can't handle.

-Squidward?

-[snores, murmurs]

-Squidward.

-[mutters]

Squidward. Squidward.

Squid. Squid.

-Squidward. Squid.

-What?!

Well, it's just that

I'm in charge and...

[growls]

And you interrupted my regularly

scheduled Krusty Krab nap?

Regularly scheduled nap?

This must be important.

Mr. Krabs has never interrupted

one of these before.

-Really?

-But being as you're

the "man in charge,"

you must have your reasons.

-Well, I... um...

-What is it?

Um... Nothing. Carry on.

Boy, there sure is a lot

of procedural-type stuff

I don't know

about the Krusty Krab.

Ha!

-[bell dings]

-Order up, Squidward!

You know, I'll let you serve

this one. My stories are on.

Gosh, I'd love to, but

I've got to cook the patties.

-So, do it when you're done.

-And unclog the sink.

Hmm. Would you like

to hear a secret?

-What kind of secret?

-See that guy over there?

Yes.

He wants to be a fry cook

and you're his hero.

Me?

Why don't you give him

a couple of pointers?

Let him cook his own patty.

And don't take no for an answer.

He's shy.

[laughs] This'll be good.

Hey, buddy.

Yeah, it's me. SpongeBob.

-Fry cook extraordinaire.

-Uh, hello.

I know your secret.

What? Who told you?

Oh, a little cashier told me.

Follow me.

-Yeah, whatever you say, man.

-Moron.

Bet you didn't think

you'd be in here today, did you?

-No.

-First off, this is my grill.

This is where the magic happens.

And this is my actual spatula.

So start frying up some patties.

I'll check on you later,

my little prodigy.

[laughs]

SpongeBob will believe anything.

[laughs]

Order number !

-SpongeBob! What are you doing?

-Taking out an order.

You're serving Krabby Patties

with your hands?

Do you know how filthy

your hands are?

[gasps] They are?

But your feet, however,

are nice and clean.

Think about it.

They've been protected by

your shoes and socks all day.

Oh.

It's all clear to me now.

One Krabby Meal served with

extra-sanitary foot service.

Your hot, steaming,

juicy Krabby Patty

and a large drink.

Enjoy.

Hey, is my food here yet?

Here, you can have mine.

[snores]

-Delivery.

-What?

Here's the supplies you ordered.

-Ow.

-Sign here.

-Hey. My pen.

-Oops. Sorry.

[exclaims]

♪ It's here, it's here

SpongeBob,

what is all this junk?

Now that I'm "in charge,"

I've decided to redecorate

the Krusty Krab.

I'm going to make it all pretty.

Yeah, have fun with that.

Oh, Squidward!

-I'm in charge...

-[grunts]

...so you'll be having

all the fun.

-Doing what?

-Painting, buffing,

sewing, washing windows,

varnishing,

washing the toilets...

oh, you lucky dog!

[growls]

Hey, SpongeBob, do you want to

hear another Krusty Krab secret?

Huh?!

Another Krusty Krab secret?

Yup. Do you want to know how Mr.

Krabs gets all these customers?

Yes.

-Low expectations.

-What's that?

He keeps the place a dump

so the food seems even better

by comparison.

So, if you want to impress Mr.

Krabs, you make it more filthy.

"More filthy"?

Throw trash on the floors,

break furniture,

and never clean anything.

Sounds like the Chum Bucket.

Ah, but you'll be doing it

on purpose.

Oh!

-How's this, Squidward?

-Looking good.

-[slurps]

-You mean, looking bad!

Enjoy our fine decor.

Next time,

I'm picking the restaurant.

One Krusty Krab,

covered in mud and slime.

[slurps] You missed a spot.

Oh.

Got it!

Gum under all tables.

How's that for low expectations?

Lower.

Initiating stage two.

Collateral damage.

-How is that?

-Perfect.

-This place is disgusting.

-Yeah, let's get out of here,

just as soon as I finish

this delicious Krabby Patty.

[customers chatter angrily]

Squidward, all the customers

are leaving.

-What did we talk about?

-Don't touch the material.

If you want the customers

to stay,

you need to provide

some entertainment.

Oh, can-do, Squidward! Can-do!

-Come on, let's go.

-Wait!

You don't want to miss this.

[grunts]

-What's he doing?

-He's dancing!

OK, people,

just back away slowly.

[sighs] There's nothing like

polished pincers

to make you feel like a man.

[cackles]

Let's see how SpongeBob's doing

as acting manager.

What the...? SpongeBob dancing

like a goofball?

And a hey! And a ho!

And a hey and a ho!

And a hey, ho, how-ho,

he-ho, ha, ho!

Me customers cowering in fear?

Help us.

[gasps]

The Krusty Krab a filthy mess?!

Order number

ready for pickup.

And some stranger

cooking Krabby Patties?!

[snores]

Squidward sleeping on the job!

OK, that's actually normal.

SpongeBob! What have you done

to me Krusty Krab?!

I was just following

Squidward's advice, Mr. Krabs.

He told me all your secrets.

All me secrets?

[chuckles]

So is there anything else

I can do for you,

Acting Manager SpongeBob?

Ah! Guinevere!

[snores]

-[phone rings]

-[screams]

[sighs]

-Hello.

-Hey, SpongeBob, how's it going?

Oh, hiya, Sandy.

Hey, I was wondering

if you could come by tonight.

Sure. What's up?

I whipped up a new invention

that I'm gonna unveil tonight,

and I need you

to be my test subject.

I will be there.

You're not gonna forget, are ya?

Of course not.

Have I ever let you down before?

-Hello?

-Just be here!

With Gary as my witness,

I will not let you down,

Miss Cheeks.

I won't let Sandy down.

I won't let Sandy down.

I won't let Sandy down.

I won't let Sandy down.

How the barnacles

do you put this thing together?

I won't let Sandy down.

Morning, Captain.

I won't let Sandy down.

I won't let Sandy down, down.

I won't let Sandy down.

Right after work, I'm going

straight over to Sandy's.

-Boy!

-Yes, sir?

I've got a special assignment

for ya.

This is a build-it-yourself

telescope.

The only problem is

I can't figure out

how to put

the darn thing together.

That's where you come in.

"Telescope assembly manual."

Now read this and be prepared

to put this thing together

at my house tonight.

Tonight?

That's not gonna be a problem,

is it?

-Um, well, actually...

-Excellent!

Because I was looking at your

annual employee report card

and the "Does a Laborious Task

for Supervisor" box

has not been checked.

-[gasps]

-See ya tonight.

Oh, what am I gonna do?

You can do it!

You made the commitments,

you have to honor them.

Both of them.

[Patrick]

Who you talking to, buddy?

[gasps]

Oh, hiya, Patrick.

What are you doing back here?

Well, sorry to disturb you

during work hours,

but I just wanted to remind you

about my birthday.

No need to remind me.

I wouldn't forget

my best buddy's birthday.

Then why aren't you saying

the words?

What words?

Happy birthday.

It's today! My birthday's today!


And you surely must remember

what you're supposed

to bring to my birthday, right?

Uh...

My birthday cake!

You're supposed to bring

my cake!

-Tonight?

-Yes, tonight!

When else am I gonna

celebrate it?!

At least I had the courtesy

to start my party

after my best friend

got off work.

See ya tonight... buddy.

Oh, Neptune! This is worse

than I ever could have imagined!

[whistle blows]

Right! Time to be all I can be!

[all chatting]

Man, these people

sure look sciencey.

Sandy must be pulling out

all the stops for this one.

-Hey, Sandy, whatcha doing?

-Oh, hey, SpongeBob.

Putting the finishing touches

on my new invention.

Thanks for assisting me.

You're such a big help.

No wonder Mr. Krabs

relies on you so heavily.

I gotta help Mr. Krabs!

Hey, uh, Sandy, I gotta run

to the, uh, gent's room.

Now, if I finish up

with Mr. Krabs,

that'll free me up

to assist Sandy.

[knocking]

SpongeBob! I knew

I wouldn't have to fire ya.

You can rely on me, sir.

I wouldn't want to jeopardize

my employee record.

[laughs nervously]

OK, let's see what we got here.

Oh, it says here on page ,

section C- ,

that you need a right-angled

motorized hex drill.

Really?

Why don't you head into town

and pick up one of those

hex-drill dealies?

-I...

-Or you can sit there

and watch me fill out

your employee report card.

[pants]

Huh?

"Please call again."

Barnacles! Where can I find

a motorized hex drill now?

-Just finishing up here.

-Sandy!

Uh, oh, hey, Patrick.

What are you doing in town?

I was just buying some birthday

hats for my birthday party.

You didn't forget my party,

did you?

Forget? How can I forget my best

buddy's birthday party, huh?

Well, you already forgot

one thing.

[chuckles nervously]

No, I haven't. Have I?

Hello? My birthday cake!

Oh, yeah, that!

I'm just getting to that.

That's why I was here in town,

yeah. Forget your birthday cake.

You're hilarious, Star,

you really are.

Now you just go home

and I'm gonna go get your cake,

you silly guy, you.

-Hi. I need a birthday cake.

-This is what I got.

Can you change it to say,

"Happy Birthday"?

[sighs] Do you want it or not?

I haven't got all night.

Yeah, neither do I.

[pants]

Sandy's drill!

-SpongeBob?!

-Oh, hi!

Just making sure

you have all your hardware.

That's an unusual getup.

Ooh, I thought I'd be

a little festive,

-you know, for the scientists.

-And the birthday cake?

Uh... [laughs nervously]

Greetings,

my distinguished colleagues.

You will witness

an invention so revolutionary

it may change modern science

forever.

To demonstrate,

my assistant here will disrobe

-and enter the machine.

-What?

You may be wondering

why the subject is disrobing.

It's because...

What's under your gown?

Oh, it must be that spicy kelp

I ate earlier.

I gotta use the lavoratory.

I'll be right Pat.

Um, back, back.

I'll be right...

[chuckles] Happy birthday!

You finally made it!

[chuckles nervously]

Big traffic storm.

Well, just leave my present

over on the present table.

Your present?

I'm so excited!

I've been waiting for a year!

I've got it. It's right there.

Ta-da! All wrapped up

and ready to go.

Well, what are you waiting for,

buddy?

Serve up the cake

so I can tear into that present!

The cake!

I must have left it at Sandy's!

You took it to Sandy's?

No! I said, "The bakery

delivers. Isn't that handy?"

I think I hear them outside.

Wait there while I go check.

-SpongeBob!

-Barnacles!

I apologize for the delay.

Now let's continue

the demonstration.

I give you...

the Proto Generator !

This device gives a single

laborer the productivity

of five, six, seven,

up to eight workers.

Great for management, but

it's also a boon for the worker

because they'll always get high

marks on their report cards.

I was just looking

at your employee report card...

The telescope!

Without further delay, I shall

initiate Proto's sequence.

Uh, Sandy, I hate to delay

the proceedings,

but I forgot to mail in

this mail-in rebate,

and I'll be right back.

OK, let's get started,

Mr. Krabs.

What happened to your clothes,

boy?

Uh, sardines. I was att*cked

by a can of wild sardines.

Now let's finish this telescope.

Boy?

Hold on, boy.

You're supposed to be using

that motorized hex drill.

Where is it?

Ah! I left it at Patrick's rock!

Patrick's rock?

What's it doing there?

SpongeBob, wait!

Get back here, boy!

SpongeBob,

why are your clothes invisible?

Can I borrow your present?

No! No! No, you can't borrow

my birthday present!

Not even for a minute?

No, not until they deliver

my birthday cake!

OK, I'll be right back.

Hold on! Where are you going?!

I'm here! [gasps]

Hold it! Where's my little

assistant going this time?

Your little assistant? That's

my assistant you're talking to.

-What's goin' on around here?

-Yeah, I'd like to know also.

What kind of birthday present

is this?

Hey, SpongeBob was supposed

to bring that to me.

That looks like my power drill.

You've got a lot of explaining

to do, mister.

I've got something to say.

I've got something to say.

I have got something to say!

[all gasp]

I know you all had important

things going on tonight.

Mr. Krabs, with your telescope,

Patrick, your birthday,

and Sandy, you have

this big presentation.

I just couldn't say no

to any of you.

Aw, you overextended yourself.

-You should have said something.

-We'd work something out.

Aw, you know,

you guys are right.

It was silly to think I could

be in three places at once.

Nonsense, SpongeBob,

of course you can.

If you'll just step into

the Proto Generator .

First, I close

the Proto chamber.

And finally...

[rumbling, beeping]

As you can see, I've produced

two clones of my subject

which will allow him to honor

all the commitments he's made.

-[all cheer]

-Did you hear that, SpongeBob?

You can be in three places

at once now.
