We cut to the ocean wastelands where we see SpongeBob with a beard continuously looking for clues behind who stole the krabby patty formula and how. He then hears roaring as he looks to see raiju and Otachi on the other side of a sea canyon. SpongeBob tears the bears off revealing it to be a mask and hides behind the rocks as they both speak
Raiju: the plan worked to perfection
Otachi; of course it did! Ghidorah had become an expert planner, with this
She reveals the book of written curses and spells in her claws ripping a blank page clean out
Otachi: we can write in as much destruction as we wish
SpongeBob watches as Otachi rests the book and the page on a rock with the two speaking. SpongeBob then slinks forward like a worm
Otachi: now soon we will gather the rest of the old gang by using the book to create a cave big enough for them to get through
Raiju: and the army coming to apex at California won't even know what hit em!
SpongeBob grabs the page and slithers away as he makes a dash back to bikini bottom only to be met by fini. SpongeBob grabs the page and puts it in his pocket
Fini: SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: fini!
Fini: SpongeBob where have you been?
SpongeBob: looking for clues to what happened to the krabby patty formula, and I think I did!
We see the page in SpongeBob's hands and fini looks at it with shock and grabs it holding it in her hands
Fini: a page from the book of written curses and spells!
We cut back to the two just arriving at bikini bottom to see it in its post apocalyptic state
SpongeBob: oh my arceus!
Fini: we really need to restore order to this reef
The two return to SpongeBob's home superb as they see Patrick slamming his head against his rock
Patrick: [as he smashes his rock with his head] I...need...Krabby Patties!
SpongeBob: [gets up] Patrick, what are you doing?
Patrick: I...need...Krabby Patties! [Stops smashing his rock] Vandalizing stuff.
Fini: Isn't that your house?
Patrick: Hey, what's with all the questions?! Who are you guys?!
SpongeBob: It's me, your best friend, SpongeBob.
Patrick: Oh, yeah. Well, if you're SpongeBob, then what's the secret password?
SpongeBob and fini: Uhh...
Patrick: Correct! It is you! SpongeBob! [dog piles on SpongeBob] SpongeBob.
SpongeBob: Patrick!
Patrick: SpongeBob! Why aren't you at the Krusty Krab making Krabby Patties?
SpongeBob: Well, I'd love to, but the formula's gone.
Fini: and we have a clue
We cut to the krusty krab half destroyed as we see sandy burst in
Sandy: I done figured it out! [everyone gasps as Sandy jumps on a table] We have angered the sandwich gods and only a sacrifice will appease them!
Big Fish: Oh, that sounds reasonable.
Sandy: Soon, our post-apoca-whatchamacallit will be over and Krabby Patties will rain down from above!
Mr. Krabs: Rain down? Well that's no good! How will I get me money?!
Nat: Oh, you don't like that idea? [to Sandy] Then we'll sacrifice you!
the crowd carries Mr. Krabs outside chanting "sacrifice," when SpongeBob Patrick and fini enter the scene
Fini: there will be no sacrifices!
Mr Krabs: SpongeBob me boy! I knew you'd come back! There was never a doubt in my mind
SpongeBob: we found out the resin on how the formula vanished!
Fini: someone has gained access to an ancient book called, the book of written curses and spells, when written in it, strange and bizarre things become reality
Fred: what kind of weird things?
Fini: like this for example
She writes on the page as a skeleton magically appears with muscle and tissue appearing on it until it became a Tyrannosaurus rex with a familiar looking face
Squidward: Squidasaurus Rex!
The squidasaurus roars as it stomps around crushing everything in sight until fini stops it in its tracks
Fini: No! Bad squidasaurus. Bad
The dinosaur then whimpers
Fini: I believe that answers your question
SpongeBob: and we believe that this is the work of the three headed devil ghidorah!
Everyone: (gasps)
SpongeBob: I hear he's using this book to open a portal to somewhere unleashing several bad guy titans to unleash on mankind!
Mr krabs: oh no! He used that book to steal me formular! If he continues to use that book that dragons gonna destroy our world!
SpongeBob: and in the name of all fishood, I am not about to let that happen! They said that their base is a place called apex at California!
Everyone looks to one another in consent
Mr krabs: I doubted me boy-o once, and I am not about to make that mistake again! Okay SpongeBob, [tears off his apocalyptic outfit] lead the way!
Squidward: wait! You mean we could just take this stuff off?! [tears off apocalyptic outfit]
SpongeBob: Come on, everybody! I've got some Krabby Patty orders to fill!
everyone tears off their apocalyptic outfits, the crowd follows SpongeBob up a hill. Fini places SpongeBob next to her in her shell as they lead the way. everyone follows them through a ship wreck, then through a winter forest, then they're upside down and a customer falls, then they end up on the moon, then riding on an eagle and they're walking up a mountain and up a hill
Fini: come on everyone! It's time to boldly go where no fish has gone before!
They look up to the waves of the surface, but as they remained confident everyone proceeds to throw stuff at them furiously and exhaustfully
Squidward: How do you expect us to go up to the surface?! We won't be able to breathe!
Customer: All right. All secondary characters, come with me.
everybody returns to Bikini Bottom and Squidward follows them
Squidward: Yeah, I'm with you guys. [Mr. Krabs grabs his shirt]
Mr. Krabs: No way, Squidward. [points to the surface] You're going up there with us.
Patrick: My feet hurt.
SpongeBob: Patrick, you don't have feet.
Patrick: [screams] Well, it's not fair. You have feet. Sandy has feet. Squidward has feet.
Squidward: Actually, I have four feet.
Patrick grunts and sits on the floor with his arms crossed
SpongeBob: It's not about feet.
Squidward: What is it about then?
SpongeBob: It's about being a team and sticking together no matter what.
Squidward: The only way we're going up there is if some fairy godmother shows up and helps us breathe air
Fini: that can be arranged
She then scoops everyone up and puts them in her shell closing it up with her on the outside. She then breached out of the water like a mermaid as she shakes her shell around like a milkshake machine rapidly before butt nudges it open releasing everyone and they're converted from 2D hand-drawn characters into CGI three-dimensional animated characters
Fini catches everyone with her she'll as they all land on the beach
Fini: your welcome
SpongeBob: thanks fini!
SpongeBob kisses her cheek making her blush. Sandy takes off her helmet
Sandy: Ah, fresh air. Oh, how I've missed you.
Squidward: Ugh! This place smells awful!
SpongeBob: Come on, guys. Let's get the Krabby Patty formula and save Bikini Bottom. [he and the others trek through the sand among the crowd.] Whoa. What is this place?
Mr. Krabs: I have a bad feeling about this.
Patrick: [walks up to a bare foot] Maybe this guy knows where we are. He looks smart. He's got five heads.
SpongeBob: Uh, Sir? Could you tell us where to find apex? [No response]
Patrick: Hey, my friend's talking to you! [pokes the foot]
SpongeBob: [peeks from behind the foot] What?
he gasps at a sleeping male sunbather.
SpongeBob: A surface alien! ! It's beached! It's suffering. Poor thing.
Fini: guys, those aren't aliens
Mr. Krabs: All hands on deck!
Everyone goes over to SpongeBob
Fini: Oh, brother.
Mr. Krabs: We need to get these guys back in the water!
SpongeBob: Come on, push!
The gang flips the sunbather over to the ocean and Mr. Krabs yells "Heave!" and everyone else yells "Ho!"
Mr. Krabs: Put your back into it!
SpongeBob: Come on, push! [the sleeping sunbather squishes everyone on his back]
Squidward: Well, I guess this is where that horrible smell was coming from.
everyone burrows out from under his back and they run into a shovel, bumping into it. SpongeBob and his friends split up and they pop out of a girl's sand castle and they turn around
Beach girl: [fascinated] Whoa!
SpongeBob: Excuse me, do you know where we can find a place called apex?
Beach boy: [angry] Invaders!
SpongeBob: Uh-oh!
Beach boy: You get off of my sister's sand castle!
He kicks the sandcastle really hard, sending SpongeBob and the others flying
Beach girl: Mom! [runs off]
Patrick lands on an ice cream cone, Mr. Krabs crashed through a window, SpongeBob and sandy land on an umbrella which then spins around, and Squidward lands on a gorgeous sunbather's back.
Patrick: [lifts head up and sees ice cream] Ahh...where have you been all my life?!
Patrick kisses the ice cream passionately, then starts gobbling the soft pink scoop
Squidward: [tries to stand up, but slips on her back due to the oily tanning lotion] Whoa! Whoa!
Female Sunbather: [dazed] Oh Frank... that's so good.
Patrick continues gobbling ice cream. A freckled boy spots Patrick.
Freckled Boy: Gross!
He throws the cone, which hits Squidward off the female sunbather's back.
Squidward lands face-first into the sand, and Patrick pops out of the top of the cone.
Patrick: Oh, hey Squidward.
Squidward: [groans]
Fini finds SpongeBob and sandy as she scoops them up and carries them to solid ground as Patrick and squidward walk up to them
Patrick: SpongeBob, you would not believe the size of the ice creams here. [Squidward strides up] I wonder what other giant snacks they have
SpongeBob: where's mr krabs??
They look to where he flew and went toward the broken window. We see mr krabs regain consciousness as he looks around in horror to see himself in the kitchen of a French seafood restaurant!
He then hides as he look to see a French cook with a bowl of fish
Cool: Les poissons, les poissons
How I love les poissons
(Cut fish head off)
Love to chop and to serve little fish
First I cut of their heads
(Rips slime clean off)
Zen I pull out their bones
(Mr krabs holds sarge to barf)
Ah mais oui, ça see'est toujours delish
Les poissons, les poissons
Hee hee hee, haw haw haw
(Mr krabs rushes through cutting table)
With the cleaver I hack them in two
I pull out what's inside
And I serve it up fried
God, I love little fishes, don't you?
(Mr krabs hides under Lettuce leaf)
Here's something for tempting the palate
Prepared in the classic technique
First you pound the fish flat with a mallet
Then you slash through the skin
Give the the belly a slice
Then you rub some salt in
'Cause that makes it taste nice
SpongeBob and company find me krabs and he reveals himself to group and to the cook
Cook: Zut alors! I have missed one
The cook grabs mr krabs who plays dead
SpongeBob: mr Krabs!
Cook: Sacre bleu, what is zis?
How on earth could I miss
Such a sweet, little succulent crab?
Quelle dommage! What a loss
Here we go, in the sauce
(Throws him in sauce)
And some flour, I think just a dab
(Throws flour on mr krabs who sneezes)
Then I stuff you with bread
It don't hurt, 'cause you're dead
(Stuffs mr krabs mouth with salad)
And you're certainly lucky, you are
'Cause it's gonna be hot
In my big silver pot
(Throws mr krabs toward pot)
Tout à l'heure, mon poisson!
Au revoir!
Squidward grabs mr krabs before he lands in the boiling water and they all make a break for it to the window before the cook even had a chance to notice. The group then are at the boardwalk as a cotton candy cart pulls up next to them
Mr krabs: thanks for pulling me outta that nightmare. One more minuet and I would've been served with a side with melted butter
Patrick looks up at the cotton candy cart and he gasps
Patrick: Cotton candy?!
SpongeBob fini and Patrick jump on the cotton candy cart and look inside
SpongeBob: wow
Fini: man. That's a lot of cotton candy. If you ate all that, you'd have enough energy to run around the whole world.
SpongeBob and Patrick jump into the cotton candy machine and they eat some then they go into a sugar rush and they laugh as they travel around the world until the camera zooms out to reveal them standing in front of a postcard rack and Sandy takes them off the rack
Squidward: [annoyed by their laughing] Ugh! When is the sugar gonna wear off?
SpongeBob and Patrick fall on their faces, much to Squidward's relief, and SpongeBob gets up and he sniffs around as he climbs the postcard rack
SpongeBob: Hey guys. I smell Krabby Patties! [jumps down] I think it's this way!
SpongeBob and the others dodge bike riders all over the sidewalk. They run to the side, but Squidward gets caught in the fray. Sandy picks him up and carries him in her arms to safety
Fini: Now what?
Squidward: We're never gonna make it!
Patrick bumps his head on a bike pedal and SpongeBob gets an idea.
The scene changes to SpongeBob and Patrick jumping on the pedals as fini is in the basket keeping Watch and the others steer. SpongeBob says "Heave," and Patrick says "Ho."
SpongeBob: We're doing it guys!
a skateboarder notices them working the bike and hits a light post then they come towards a stroller
Sandy: Hold on!
Mr. Krabs hits the bike bell and yells in shock
Baby: SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: Huh? Lean!
they steer the bike away from the stroller and ride up a surfing board like a ramp, they fall off the bike into a wagon. They all look up to see they have made it
Fini: there it is guys
They look up to see a massive pyramid made of metal with the apex logo on it
Fini; time for us to save bikini bottom
______
Authors note: yay! We cut back to SpongeBob and company. This is one I've been waiting for since the teaser. Although the mr krabs but had to go through some rewrites as it was originally gonna be the slash deleted scenes from sponge out of water, to this because considering how crabs are served up steamed with melted butter on the side, why not have this scene in where he has a near death experience?
Now back to seeing Tembo and his friends as they celebrate tembo's victory and headed off to war as they push the enemy off their territory to the Himalayan mountains. Whatever you guys loved about this part, I'm delighted to hear your input
