Doctor: You’ve been mumbling about that fella throughout your coma, you’re lucky Plankton saved your life.
SpongeBob: Plankton?
[Plankton walks in]
Plankton: Yeah, a robot knocked you out, so before they could kill you, I luckily shot them all and got you to our underground base where they sent you here.
SpongeBob: Is the war still going on?
Doctor: Actually it ended weeks ago, and our, side was, slaughtered… there are barely any of us left..
SpongeBob: Plankton, do you know where Patrick is?
Plankton: Couldn’t find him, he’s most likely dead.

[SpongeBob wakes up, drenched in sweat]

SpongeBob: So, i’m all alone, no allies, and I need to find my best friend who I lost in the war, and I have no weapons. (sigh) How will I ever find him?!
Fish: Get weapons, friends and a map.
SpongeBob: That’s a GREAT idea!
[SpongeBob goes to the Map store]
Map Store Clerk: What can i get ya for?
SpongeBob: I’m looking for a map
Map Store Clerk: Ya know we’re one of the last living beings on this planet ya know?
SpongeBob: Really?
Map Store Clerk: Yeah, the president seems to have a plan to kill us all so it’s his perfect robotic being world where nothing can go wrong.
SpongeBob: That monster!
Map Store Clerk: Our population has been in the hundreds… dark times are coming.
SpongeBob: Anyways, I need a map

Map Store Clerk: Oh, well good luck with that!
[SpongeBob exits the store with a map, and walks down the street until he sees a gun store, and enters]
Gun Store Clerk: Welp, ya need a gun?
SpongeBob: Well, I need a few guns, grenades, and rocket launchers.
Gun Store Clerk: Here ya go
SpongeBob: Whoa really?
Gun Store Clerk: Yeah, ever since World War III, no waiting for a gun or rocket launcher, since the only people that can get the stuff are living beings like us, robots are banned from owning any guns.
SpongeBob: Wow, what a life we live in.
[At the same time, a fish goes up to SpongeBob and gives him a letter]
SpongeBob: What’s this?
[the fish leaves, SpongeBob sees that it’s Patrick’s handwriting, so he starts opening up the letter, and reads it, he drops it, and runs out]
