Gary: Meow.
SpongeBob: I know, I know Gary. It'd be a lot easier to serve your snail food if your dish wasn't on the opposite side of the pineapple. (gives Gary snail food)
Gary: Meow.
SpongeBob: I heard that!
(doorbell rings)
SpongeBob: I'll go get that. And eat your snail food! (walks to door, opens it) Hi, wh- (gets hit with a dart, gets dragged away by an evil-looking fish)

(opening scene plays, after done zooms to Sandy's Treedome)
French Narrarator: Ah, the sea. You would think it would be a great place to live, but there are still dangers.......
Sandy: (watching TV) I wonder what's on the news.
Perch Perkins: On Bikini Bottom News, we have urgent information! This day, it was reported by Squidward Tentacles that SpongeBob has been captured by a mysterious fish! He actually seemed happy about it. Let's see what Squidward can help us figure out about the fish.
Squidward: Well, this is your chance to fame, Squiddy! You-
Perch Perkins: You know I have the camera recording you and this is being broadcast live?
Squidward: Oh. Well, he had sunglasses and a hat on, which almost covered his whole face. He wore black pants, and..... well, I don't remember the rest because I was having a party.
Perch Perkins: What party?
Squidward: I have a party every time SpongeBob goes away. I mean....
Sandy: WHAT!? Oh no! I've gotta tell Patrick!
(scene cuts to Patrick sleeping in his rock)
Sandy: (opens rock) PATRICK! SpongeBob was captured by some evil fish!
Patrick: (wakes up) What!? Sandy, don't you know I'm an expert hero? Pffff! I'll save him!
Sandy: Yeah. (rolls eyes) You're an expert hero.
Patrick: I just need to find him. Which way did he go?
Sandy: Why would I know that? Go ask Squidward.
Patrick: Okay. (goes to Squidward's house)
Squidward: (in shower) La da dee da da doo da da dum......
Patrick: (bursts into Squidward's bathroom) Squidward! Do you know which way SpongeBob went when he was captured?
Squidward: I have no idea. Now if you mind......
(zooms out of Squidward's house)
Squidward: GET OUT OF HERE!!!
Patrick: Perhaps Gary could give me a clue. (goes to SpongeBob's house, opens door) Hey cousin Gary, long time no see! Do you know which way SpongeBob went?
Gary: Meow meow meow, meow, meow meow......
Patrick: Gotcha......
Gary: Meow meow meow meow, meow, meow, meow meow meow......
Patrick: Uh huh.....
Gary: Meow meow.
Patrick: So he went to Ukulele Bottom?
Gary: Meow.
Patrick: Thanks, cousin Gary! Bye! (heads torwards the bus, rides it to Ukulele Bottom) Here we are! Now where is SpongeBob?
Sandy: Maybe he's in that apartment.
Patrick: How do you know? And how are you here?
Sandy: I followed you on the bus. Plus, I'm not sure if he's in there. But let's check.
Patrick: Okay.
(montage of Sandy and Patrick checking the apartment for SpongeBob)
Sandy: Hey, we never checked room E9. (opens E9's door) Hey, have you seen a square sponge that laughs really annoyingly?
Fish: No. (slams door in face) That was close.
Patrick: "That was close"? Why did he say that?
Sandy: I think he might have SpongeBob! Let's get in! (tries to open the door, but it is locked) Darn! It's locked! We'll need the key.
Patrick: But how will we get it?
Sandy: We don't. Here's our plan: At night, we break through the window and get the key!
Patrick: That's it? And that doesn't sound safe. Plus, we're on the fifth floor.
Sandy: Trust me, it'll work. But what do we do until night?
Patrick: Eat ice cream at Ukulele Ice Cream!
Sandy: No!
Patrick: Yes!
Sandy: No! C'mon, let's do something else!
Patrick: They have your favorite flavor! Mint..... chocolate..... chip!
Sandy: Patrick.....
Patrick: ....with extra whipped cream!
Sandy: Okay, fine, I'll go! Only because I like that flavor.
Patrick: (at Ukulele Ice Cream) Yay!
Sandy: I can't believe this.
(time card: 10 minutes later)
Sandy: Now that we're done with our ice cream, what do we do?
Patrick: Eat more ice cream!
Sandy: NO!
Patrick: Well, it's no different than what I always do!
Sandy: "Expert heroes" don't eat ice cream.
Patrick: Fine. Can we eat waffles then?
Sandy: No! Can we just find something good to do?
Patrick: What's wrong with ice cream and waffles?
Sandy: I'm glad SpongeBob met me first.
Patrick: Why?
Sandy: Because you're so dumb! Do you seriously eat ice cream and waffles every day?
Patrick: I eat them hourly.
Sandy: No wonder you weigh 367 pounds.
Patrick: You never told me I was morbidly obese!
Sandy: No wonder.
Squidward: Why are you here?
Patrick: I was going to ask that to you.
Squidward: I'm on a little vacation because SpongeBob is away!
Sandy: You do realize he was actually brang here by the fish?
Squidward: WHAT?! C'mon!
Patrick: Do you want to help us free him?
Squidward: What do you think?
Patrick: That you do.
(zooms out of Ukulele Ice Cream)
Squidward: NOOOOOOOOO!!!
Sandy: Ow, my ears!
Patrick: Tell me about it! Hey Squiddy, do you know anything I could do?
Squidward: Maybe you could go to the bookstore. Just keep out of my way, okay?
Sandy: The bookstore?! Yay!
Patrick: Lame!
Sandy: C'mon, let's go!
(time card: One boring shop for books later....)
Patrick: Promise you'll never do that EVER again.
Sandy: Okay. It's 9 at night. We just need to get back to the apartment.
Patrick: Got it.
Sandy: And then we'll climb along the building and bust through the windo-
Patrick: We've taken so many steps!
Sandy: Patrick, we only took 10 steps.
Patrick: It feels like eleven.
Sandy: Whatever. We're here. Now let's scale the building.
Patrick: How?
Sandy: With this grappling hook! (throws grappling hook through the window of Room E9, climbs up along with Patrick)
Patrick: Where did you get that grappling hook?
Sandy: From the bookstore.
Patrick: Cool, I'll go there sometime.
Sandy: HA! Tricked you! Now let's find SpongeBob, and don't wake up the fish!
Patrick: Okay. Do you think he's in that room that says, "Not where SpongeBob is hidden in"? Nah, it says he's not in there, so-
Sandy: He's in there. (opens door) SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: Help.... me!
Sandy: Who are you, and what are you doing with SpongeBob?
Fish: I'm the leader of the League Of Villians, and I'm using my Evil-O-Matic to make SpongeBob EVIL! Ha ha h-
Patrick: I don't think so! (kicks the fish in the face, punches him in the stomach 3 times, and flips him over)
Sandy: Uh, Patrick, how did you do that?
Patrick: You free SpongeBob while I finish this fish off!
Sandy: Okay! (goes to SpongeBob) How do you get this thing off?
SpongeBob: Turn it to the left 5 times....
Patrick: Hurry, Sandy! (punches the fish 7 times)
SpongeBob: .....to the right 16 times........
Patrick: C'mon! (kicks the fish in the leg)
SpongeBob...... and then left 28 times.......
Patrick: We don't have all day! (hits the fish in the face)
SpongeBob: .......and finally, hit the button in the middle.
Sandy: Got it! (frees SpongeBob)
Patrick: Could you give me a hand here?
SpongeBob: Sure! (spin-kicks the fish in the face, leaving him unconcious on the ground)
Fish: You haven't seen the last.... of...... meeee.....
SpongeBob: Really? (stomps on his stomach)
Sandy: Well, that should do. Now let's get out of here! (runs out of the room) Huh? The window is patched and the door is locked!
Fish: I told you! You HAVEN'T seen the last of me!
Patrick, SpongeBob, And Sandy: Uh-oh.
Patrick: (kicks the fish in the leg again) How's that feel?
Fish: OWWWW! Minions!
(two fish come)
Patrick: You two handle them, and I'll take down this little fish once and for all! (punches the fish repeatedly)
Sandy: (kicks one of the minions, then punches the minion) Hurts? Oh well, too bad. Try being good for a change.
SpongeBob: Using words sometimes helps, and sometimes doesn't! I really suggest that you don't talk to him! (spin-kicks a minion in the face)
Patrick: They're all stunned! Let's get out of here before they regain strength!
Sandy: But we're locked in!
SpongeBob: Not exactly! (grabs Sandy and Patrick, jumps out the window, activates a parachute)
Sandy: Hey Patrick, I got the parachute at the bookstore.
Patrick: Nice try, Sandy.
(fish parachute down to them)
Patrick: Oh boy! Now an aerial attack! (lands parachute on top of a shoe store, fish land there too)
Sandy: Well, these guys won't give up.
Patrick: I've got an idea! We'll try to push them off the building!
Sandy: Yeah!
SpongeBob: (spin-kicks minion in the face, drags him over the edge of the building) Ow, that gotta hurt. Patrick, can we use a less gruesome method?
Sandy: I thought you said, "Don't use your words". (karate chops the minion, drags him off the ledge)
Patrick: Yeah. (punches the fish, yet he doesn't fall down)
SpongeBob: Whatever. (spin-kicks the fish off the shoe store)
Patrick: I did it!
SpongeBob and Sandy: You mean WE did it?
Patrick: Um, yes, that's what I meant to say!
Fish: Oof..... you haven't..... seen...
Sandy:..... the last of us, blah, blah, blah.
(siren rings)
SpongeBob: The police can take it from here.
(scene cuts to SpongeBob's neighborhood)
Patrick: Boy, last night was crazy, wasn't it? I really enjoyed it, and now we've got the town a little safer.
SpongeBob: Yeah!
Patrick: I've been thinking about it.... Since I like it, I've decided to be a hero for living!
SpongeBob: WHAT!?
Patrick: Yep.
Squidward: Oh no, you're here.
SpongeBob: Hey Squidward, guess what Patrick decided to do?
Squidward: I hope he decided to move.
SpongeBob: No, he's a hero now!
Squidward: Oh, wow! Can you make him get you away from me?
SpongeBob: I'm gonna tell Sandy.
(scene cuts to Sandy's treedome)
SpongeBob: Sandy, guess what? Patrick's decided to become a hero for life!
Sandy: Cool! I wish I could be one.
SpongeBob: Anyway, I've got to feed Gary. He must be hungry.
(scene cuts to SpongeBob watching TV with Gary, who is eating snail food)
Perch Perkins: Last night at 9:37 P.M, the mysterious fish along with two other fish were found lying unconcious nearby the Ukulele Bottom Shoe Store. It is unknown why and how this happened.
