[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.

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.
