CDCB

CDCB’s Bikini Bottom Adventures – Mini Short 10 – Story Time SpongeBob and Patrick started down at my dormant body. There I was, fast asleep beneath a coral tree in my front yard, snoring peacefully. “How long do you think he’s been asleep?” asked SpongeBob. Patrick took one thoughtful look right up close in my face. His eyebrows fluttered as my snoring blew a light breeze in his face. “Oh, I dunno…” Patrick pondered. “I’d say about 12 years, 2 months, and 17 days.” SpongeBob stopped awkwardly. “… Well, I didn’t mean anything that specific…” SpongeBob started, but he realized his pink pal was already lost in thought (or a lack thereof) again. “Uhhh, never mind that. Let’s just try to wake him up.” “Wake who up?” Patrick asked dopily. “CDCB!” SpongeBob exclaimed, with a hint of impatience now. “Today’s the day of the big Jellyfishing Expo in Ukulele Bottom!” “Heh heh… Bottom…” Patrick chuckled. SpongeBob just rolled his eyes. “How do you suppose we’re gonna wake him up, buddy?” SpongeBob asked while shaking me slightly to no avail. “I’ve never seen CDCB sleep like this before.” Patrick considered this. He thought for a moment in deep silence, which, granted, was not very deep at all. In the great train of thought, Patrick might as well have only been the caboose. But suddenly an idea came to him, and it seemed to make sense. “I know!” he shouted triumphantly (which didn’t wake me, either). “Why don’t we read CDCB a story?” “Isn’t that usually for when you go to bed?” SpongeBob questioned. “Well, yeah…” Patrick agreed. “But maybe… we could read him a story that’s so exciting, he’ll have to wake up and… and hear what happens next!” SpongeBob was admittedly impressed. “Wow, good idea buddy!” he said, patting his portly pink pal on the back. “Do you know any stories?” “Well,” Patrick reminisced, “There’s that one I told you about the Ugly B—” “No!” SpongeBob interrupted, a small tear escaping his eye. “That won’t help at all.” They were stumped. “Why don’t we just make one up?” SpongeBob suggested cheerfully. “Nobody knows CDCB better than his two best pals! I’m sure we’ll come up with just the story.” SpongeBob gave Patrick a playful jab in the tummy, which jiggled slightly. Patrick couldn’t help but giggle. “I’ll start us off!” SpongeBob cleared his throat, then spoke in a more sophisticated voice. “Once there was a fish named CDCB, who lived in a—” “SOMBRERO!!” Patrick interrupted. “… uhhh, a sombrero,” SpongeBob continued awkwardly. That wasn’t what he had in mind, but he just went with it. “Anyway, CDCB loved to play the--” “ICE CREAM!!” Patrick interrupted again. “Patrick, you can’t play ice cream!” SpongeBob protested. Patrick pulled an ice cream cone out of nowhere and blew on the pointy part at the bottom of the cone. It made a disgusting sound, like some kind of a squishy horn. But SpongeBob had to admit, it did sound vaguely musical. “You were saying?” Patrick challenged nonchalantly. SpongeBob groaned. “Just let me tell a little bit more of the story before you take your turn, okay?” SpongeBob patiently asked. Though his patience was beginning to wear down a little. Patrick nodded compliantly. “So anyway,” SpongeBob said, “CDCB lived in a sombrero and he liked to play ice cream.” Patrick said nothing, so SpongeBob took it as his cue to continue. “CDCB was playing his ice cream one morning when suddenly, a giant sea monster ripped through the wall of his sombrero house and roared,” SpongeBob continued. “CDCB shook in fear, but he wasn’t one to pick a fight. So he took one look at the sea monster and said…” SpongeBob cleared his throat and put on his best impression of me. “’Hey buddy, that’s my wall!’” Patrick cringed in silence. “The sea monster didn’t understand English,” SpongeBob continued. “So he just sat there, and… uhhh… roared some MORE!... and… uhhh…” SpongeBob’s story had stumbled into a dead end, and Patrick couldn’t take this whole patience thing anymore. “Aww, why doesn’t CDCB just throw his ice cream at the sea monster?” Patrick suggested intensely. “Because CDCB would never do that!” SpongeBob declined. “Can’t he aim?” Patrick asked cluelessly. “Not.. really…” SpongeBob murmured confidentially. SpongeBob and Patrick continued bickering back and forth, blissfully unaware that I was finally awaking from my slumber. “Hey guys,” I yawned. “CDCB!” SpongeBob and Patrick cheered in unison, completely forgetting about their argument. “Boy, it feels like I’ve been asleep for 12 years,” I chuckled. “12 years, 2 months, and 17 days,” Patrick interjected. I couldn’t help but laugh. There was Patrick again, just being Patrick. The same ol’ doofus we all knew and loved. “So what have you guys been up to?” I asked, changing the topic. “We were on our way to the Jellyfishing Expo!” SpongeBob reminded me. “Today’s the big day!” “So it is!” I beamed. I stood up and put on my trusty convention hat, with SpongeBob and Patrick following suit. “You guys think Kevin’ll be there?” “You mean that pickle with the funny hat?” Patrick laughed. “Errr… yeah…” SpongeBob confirmed awkwardly. Truthfully, Patrick had gotten some of the details mixed up, but we all knew what he meant. The three of us decided to walk to the convention center instead of taking the bus, preferring to use the extra time to enjoy each other’s company. In all truth, I’d only been taking a short nap and wasn’t really asleep for 12 years. But with how close SpongeBob, Patrick, and I had gotten? It might as well have been. The three of us had grown inseparable since I arrived in Bikini Bottom, and even though Squidward was a bit too grouchy to admit it, my presence made his misadventures with SpongeBob and Patrick a little more bearable. Life in Bikini Bottom was unpredictable. Sometimes things were full of adventure and excitement. Sometimes life could be pretty lackluster and seemed to drag forever. But I’d grown to adapt and embrace my new life under the sea. And while a part of me would have been happy if I ever solved the mystery of my fish transformation and made it back to the surface, I’d learned to be content in the moment and appreciate things as they were right then and there. Perhaps my questions would be answered someday. For now, I was just happy to be alive and hanging with my two best pals.

Make up your own deleted scene from a SpongeBob episode and rate others' imaginary scenes as well. They can be as realistic or as silly as you wish. "Doing Time" - Originally the elderly memoir writer crumpled up his work after it got soaked and threw it at Old Man Jenkins in anger. This was cut for encouraging children to waste paper.

Here's my first spin-off. I worked really hard on it, and episode one is finally finished. I hope you all like it. Sorry if it's a little long--I wrote it in script form. “CDCB’s Bikini Bottom Adventures” – Episode 1 “Pilot” (It’s a bright sunny day. I wake up in bed.) CDCB: (yawn) Guess I’ll go get the paper. (I get up out of bed and, still in my bedtime attire, go to my front door to get the paper) CDCB: (bends down and searches for the paper) Huh? No paper?? It’s 8 in the freaking—OW! (a newspaper hits me in the head) Paperboy: Sorry! (speeds away on his bike) CDCB: Hrrm… (walks inside house, sits down at kitchen table, and lays out the paper to read it) Okay…now where are the funnies? (flipping through sections) Let’s see…Front page…sports…entertainment…people…Ooh! Technology! Hey, there’s an inventors’ convention down at the old museum! I’ve got to check this out. (Camera cuts to me driving in my car, going to the inventors’ convention.) CDCB: I can’t wait to see the cool inventions they have! (I find a parking spot, park the car, and head into the museum for the inventors’ convention.) Ticket Operator: Hold it there, bub! Ticket, please.CDCB: Do you have a ticket?Ticket Operator: I work here. I don’t need a ticket.CDCB: I don’t believe you. Where does it say that? (As the Ticket Operator answers my question, I secretly sneak away into the museum) Ticket Operator: (pulls out a manual) It says that right here. Section 49.3 Dash B, Code 148. (turns around and sees CDCB is gone) Hey! Where’d he go? (shrugs) Oh well. (Inside the museum, I walk around looking at all the inventions in it.) CDCB: Wow! A virtual 5-D movie experience! (I observe as a guy with a huge headset over his face gets electrocuted) Electrocuted Guy: Gaaah!!!!! Too realistic!!!!! CDCB: Ow…poor guy. (turns around) Hey! That’s amazing! (Cut to a guy with a top hat and cane he’s spinning around) Guy 1: Step right up! Be the first to try the new Teleportation Device of Mystery! It doesn’t cost a single cent! It’s free! Absolutely free! Any volunteer can be teleported right before their very eyes! Yes sir! It can do all that! Do I have any volunteers? (I prepare to raise my hand, but before I can do it, everyone else raises their hand) CDCB: (slowly raises hand up) Guy 1: Hey! You! You in the…red shirt! Guy 2: I knew it!! It’s me!!Guy 1: No, not you, stupid! (pointing to CDCB) Him!CDCB: Wha--? Who--? Me???Guy 1: Yes you, sir. Do you want the job or not?CDCB: Yes! Yes! I want it! Guy 1: Good! Good! (indicating the entrance to the teleportation device) Just step right over here and take a seat. CDCB: (follows the instructions and sits down inside the machine) Say, where is this thing taking me, anyway? Guy 1: (snickers) I don’t know! (slams door shut) (Guy 1’s voice can be heard muffled as I speak as we cut to the inside of the machine) CDCB: Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea after all. (Suddenly, a huge yellow flash of light appears) CDCB: Aaah! Too bright! (The machine begins shaking wildly, knocking me all around.) CDCB: Th-Th-This...is…b-b-bumpy! (A blinding flash of light appears, and soon I can feel myself traveling very rapidly, faster than a space ship.) CDCB: Where am I going?! I wanna go home!! (The machine shakes wildly again, and then comes to an abrupt stop.) CDCB: Phew! It’s done. Now where am I? (opens the door, only to have water come into the machine and begin filling it) Aaah! Water?! But…but how?! (tries to close the door but fails) Oh no! I can’t close the door! I’m gonna drown! (Water fills the inside of the teleportation machine to the top and I’m still alive) CDCB: (opens one eye) Am I dead yet? (successfully breathes) Hey, I can breathe! But…how is that possible?! (reading a notice on the machine) ‘WARNING: Machine may cause growth of gills and other various fish parts.’ (sarcastically) Oh boy, how convenient. (after a few seconds) Well, I guess I’d better see where this water is all coming from. (opens door and walks out) Oh…my…gosh. (looking up at the sky) Flower clouds… (looking at the ground) floor of sand... (A jellyfish buzzes by.) CDCB: (watching the jellyfish) Jellyfish?! I don’t believe it! I’m in Bikini Bottom! (Meanwhile, SpongeBob and Patrick are out in Jellyfish Fields…well, jellyfishing, of course.) Patrick: (waving his net around) I’m gonna catch more jellyfish than you, SpongeBob! SpongeBob: (holding his net above his head ever so still) Don’t count on it, Pat! (a jellyfish buzzes into his net) Got one! Patrick: (drops his net and goes up to the net SpongeBob holds with the jellyfish inside) Hey, can I see? (The jellyfish SpongeBob caught flies out and buzzes angrily at Patrick, who runs away as the jellyfish chases him) Patrick: (screams his weird and unique scream) SpongeBob: (laughs) Don’t let him get you, Patrick! (laughs more and turns around, noticing someone he’s never seen before) Hey, Pat! Get a look at this guy. Patrick: (now with a swollen head from the jellyfish stinging him, pokes his head on screen) Where? (Camera shows me sitting down, sighing.) CDCB: I wonder if I’ll ever get home. SpongeBob: (secretly watching CDCB behind some kelp) Poor guy. He looks like he misses his home. Let’s go cheer him up, pal. Patrick: Okay. (SpongeBob and Patrick slowly come up to me. I look up and notice them but then look back down, too sad to care that I’m meeting one of my favorite cartoon characters for the first time.) SpongeBob: Hi, I’m SpongeBob. And this is Patrick. What’s your name? CDCB: (sighs and looks up at SB) I’m…CDCB. Patrick: (to himself, but loud enough for SpongeBob to hear) CDCB? Pssh…that’s a weird name. SpongeBob: (quietly so CDCB doesn’t hear) Patrick!! We’re supposed to cheer him up! Patrick: Oh. Right. SpongeBob: (to CDCB) You okay? You look kinda sad. CDCB: I’m sad because…ah, who am I kidding? You wouldn’t believe me. SpongeBob: Oh come on, now. You can tell us. CDCB: Well… (We see from my perspective when I look at both SpongeBob and Patrick’s goofy smiles. The camera then switches back.) CDCB: (sigh) Okay…fine. I’ll tell you. (sigh) So, back at home, there was this inventors’ convention, see? SpongeBob: Uh huh. CDCB: So, I really wanted to go…and I did. When I got there, I volunteered to test out this teleportation device, and well…(pointing to the empty teleportation device) See that thing over there? Patrick: You mean the sign? CDCB: No. No. The big hunk of metal over there. SpongeBob: Oh yeah! CDCB: Well this thing…teleported me from (pointing up) up there to (pointing down) down here. I was originally a land creature…but that thing turned me into a fish. So now I have no way to get back home. I think the machine is broken. SpongeBob: Oh, not to worry. Sandy knows a lot of things about inventing. Maybe she can help! (SpongeBob and Patrick get up and start to walk away, but notice I’m still where I was before.) SpongeBob: Well, come on! CDCB: Uh…okay. (gets up and follows SpongeBob and Patrick to Sandy’s Treedome) (SpongeBob, Patrick, and I arrive at Sandy’s Treedome.) CDCB: (remains put as SB and Pat walk in with water helmets) SpongeBob: (he and Pat stop) Aren’t you coming? CDCB: I…don’t have a water helmet.Patrick: (walking up to CDCB, holding out water helmet) Here, borrow mine. I’ll wait out here.CDCB: (takes water helmet from Patrick) Thanks, Patrick. (puts on water helmet) SpongeBob: Come on, CDCB. Sandy’s right inside this treedome. (SpongeBob and I walk inside the treedome. As usual, water is drained from it. We walk into the water-free environment. Sandy is right next to her picnic table, enjoying some Texas Tea.) Sandy: Well howdy, SpongeBob. Who’s your friend? SpongeBob: Hi, Sandy. This is CDCB.Sandy: (holding out a hand in front of CDCB) Howdy there, CDCB. (shaking CDCB’s…fin) Don’t ‘member seein’ you ‘round these here parts.CDCB: Well, actually I’m uh…not from here. Sandy: Well, where ya from? New Kelp City? Rock Bottom? CDCB: No, I’m from the…surface. Sandy: The surface? Well, I’ll be! That makes two of us.CDCB: (smiles and laughs nervously) Sandy: So, what can I do fer ya? CDCB: Well, I was hoping you could help fix this teleportation device that brought me here. Sandy: Why, sure I could do that!CDCB: (happily) Really?Sandy: Yup! Inventing’s what I do best. I’ve have that thing fixed faster than a… CDCB: Okay, Sandy…I get it. Thanks. Sandy: Don’t mention it! Just take me to it and I’ll have it ready by say…tomorrow. CDCB: That soon? Man, I don’t know how to thank you, Sandy. Sandy: My pleasure, CDCB. SpongeBob: Well, we’d better get going. Gotta show CDCB around before he leaves. (Cut to an exterior shot of the Krusty Krab. Camera cuts to an interior shot after two seconds. Inside, SpongeBob is showing me around.) SpongeBob: And this is the nail that’s always sticking out like that. (pointing to the order booth) And here’s where we order.CDCB: Cool. (stomach growls) SpongeBob: (in an unnecessarily baby-ish voice) Ohh…did I hear your tummy growl?CDCB: Uh…I think so. SpongeBob: All that trip must’ve made you hungry. I’ll fix us up some Krabby Patties. CDCB: Mmm...okay.SpongeBob: (as he walks into the kitchen) No peeking. (A time card appears on the screen, reading “Later…”) French Narrator: Later… (Cut to SpongeBob poking his head through the order window.) SpongeBob: Order up! (he carries the Krabby Patties to the table where CDCB sits) Here you go! Enjoy your first Krabby Patty!CDCB: (very gradually, to savor the moment, takes his first bite of a Krabby Patty) Wow… I’ve… I’ve… never had a burger like this before.SpongeBob: (overly enthusiastic) You love it??CDCB: Yeah, I do. I had no idea I was missing out! (takes another bite) SpongeBob, thank you for my first Krabby Patty.SpongeBob: You’re welcome. Funny…I can’t help thinking we forgot something...CDCB: (takes another bite of the Krabby Patty) What’s that? (SpongeBob and I think for a moment) SpongeBob: I…don’t know. (Cut to Patrick while he’s still waiting outside Sandy’s Treedome) Patrick: Hello? Is somebody gonna give me back my water helmet?COMMERCIAL BREAK (After the commercial break, the episode resumes. We see SpongeBob and I in Goo Lagoon.) SpongeBob: This is Goo Lagoon, where everyone goes to get a tan…or work out…or just have fun!CDCB: I gotta admit, this place is pretty cool. (stink lines float around CDCB and he smells them) Gaah! ‘Cept for that. What is that stench?!SpongeBob: That’s probably Larry the Lobster working out. CDCB: How much does he work out? SpongeBob: Well… (Just then, Larry comes by and notices SpongeBob and I.) Larry: Well, hey there, SpongeBob. Who’s your friend? SpongeBob: Hi, Larry. Meet CDCB. He’s new around here, so I was just showing him around. Larry: I see. (holds out a claw for CDCB to shake) Put ‘er there!CDCB: Um…not to be rude or anything, but I don’t know if that’s such a good idea…you being a lobster and all. Larry: Aw, nonsense. I don’t bite. C’mon. CDCB: Okay…(puts his fin out to shake Larry’s claw; nothing bad happens) Larry: See? No harm done! CDCB: Yeah, you’re right! So, uh…nice to meet you, Larry. Larry: You too. Say, you wanna catch a couple of waves together? CDCB: Thanks for the offer, Larry, but I don’t know how to surf. Larry: Well c’mon, then. I’ll show you how!CDCB: (smiles) Uh, okay. (Fade to a scene with Larry and I surfing back onto the shore. It is dusk now.) CDCB: Whew! That was quite a workout, Larry. Thanks for showing me how to surf. Larry: Don’t mention it. Well, I’d better close the Lagoon. It’s getting kinda late. See ya, CDCB. CDCB: See ya, Larry. (Larry walks off screen. Suddenly, it hits me.) CDCB: Oh man! (walks over to the volleyball net where SpongeBob is) Hey, SpongeBob! I just thought of something.SpongeBob: Yeah? CDCB: Where am I going to sleep tonight? SpongeBob: Oooh. Hadn’t thought of that. Hmm…Oh I know! You could stay with me! It’ll be just like a slumber party! CDCB: I don’t know… SpongeBob: Come on. I’ll let you sleep in my bed if you like. CDCB: (unable to resist the offer) Well, uh, okay. Thanks. (Cut to SpongeBob’s Pineapple from the outside. Cut again to the inside of SpongeBob’s bedroom. While I rest in SpongeBob’s bed, SpongeBob is saying goodnight to me.) SpongeBob: Goodnight, CDCB. If you need anything, just give a holler. CDCB: Okay. Thanks again, SpongeBob. SpongeBob: (closes the door) See ya in the morning. (SpongeBob walks down the stairs and into the TV room where Gary rests. He has a blanket set up on his couch.) SpongeBob: Ahhh, isn’t he nice, Gary? It’s too bad he has to go home tomorrow. I kinda like the guy.Gary: (meows)SpongeBob: Well, we’d better get some sleep. Good night, Gare Bear. (falls asleep instantly and starts snoring)Gary: (meows) (Cut to Bikini Bottom shot. A scallop chirps like a rooster. Cut again to me in bed. I wake up.) SpongeBob: Good morning, sleepyhead! CDCB: (yawning, still half asleep) Good morning, mommy.SpongeBob: Mommy? (laughs) No, silly. It’s SpongeBob.CDCB: (half asleep) No…please…don’t make me go to school! SpongeBob: Tell ya what. I’ll go fix us some breakfast and let you wake up a little.CDCB: (half asleep) My dog ate my homework, Ma’am. (SpongeBob leaves and goes into his kitchen.) SpongeBob: (sigh) I’m sure going to miss him when he leaves. (Cut to me wide awake at SpongeBob’s table, eating a bowl of Kelpo. SpongeBob is still laughing about some of the things I said earlier.) SpongeBob: Oh…nothing. (changing the subject) Well, today’s the day you go home. I’m going to miss you. CDCB: (about to eat a spoonful of Kelpo, hearing SpongeBob’s words, places the spoon in the bowl, gets up, and places his hand on SpongeBob’s shoulder) SpongeBob, I’ll miss you too. You’ve been a really good friend to me and…well, I like y— (Suddenly, SpongeBob’s shell phone rings, interrupting my words.) SpongeBob: I’ll get it. (he walks over to the phone and answers it) Hello? Sandy: (heard over the phone) SpongeBob? SpongeBob: Hey, Sandy! What’s up? Sandy: (heard over the phone) Not CDCB, I’m afraid. SpongeBob: What? (Cut to Sandy’s treedome where we see her struggling with the teleportation machine which she now has taken into her treedome, while frantically holding her phone at the same time.) Sandy: I tried to fix the Teleportation machine and…I…I couldn’t! SpongeBob: (heard over the phone) You…what? Sandy: You see, I had to replace all the broken parts, but one of those parts is one that I’m completely unfamiliar with. I looked everywhere for a replacement, but nobody had that exact part that I needed. I asked why, and they said that it’s a discontinued part. I don’t think y’all can count on me getting’ my hands on one of those, so it looks like CDCB is…stuck here. (Cut to SpongeBob on the phone.) SpongeBob: (notices CDCB smiling as he fantasizes about being back home) Oh no. Sandy: (heard over the phone) Be extra careful when telling CDCB the bad news. He may take it hard. SpongeBob: I will. Bye, Sandy. (hangs up the phone) Oh, barnacles! (Cut to CDCB in the kitchen eating some Kelpo.) SpongeBob: Say, uh, CDCB? CDCB: Yeah, SpongeBob? Something you want to tell me? SpongeBob: Yeah. Listen, I— (The doorbell rings.) SpongeBob: …will get that. (walks over to the door and answers it) (Patrick is at the door.) SpongeBob: (whispering) Hey, Pat, this isn’t a good time. Could you come back later? I’m trying to tell CDCB that he’s stuck here forever. Patrick: (extremely loudly) What?! CDCB is stuck here forever?! CDCB: (off screen) SpongeBob? Did Patrick just say I was…stuck here forever? Patrick: (extremely loudly)You bet I did!!! You’re stuck here forever!!! There, that got it all taken care of, SpongeBob. SpongeBob: Patrick!! I wanted to tell it to him nice and easy!! Patrick: Oops. (I come into view looking shocked and extremely sad.) CDCB: So it’s true…I’m stuck here forever…I’m never coming home? (SpongeBob and Patrick nod.) CDCB: (groan) I just don’t know what to say…I…I (sigh) SpongeBob: Cheer up, CDCB. You can still have fun with us and everyone else in Bikini Bottom. Why, I’ll bet there’s a whole new set of adventures out there waiting for us. CDCB: (sigh) I guess you’re right. I can learn to live my life as a Bikini Bottomite. I can get a job, earn a living, and do all kinds of things. Just because I’m a fish instead of a human doesn’t keep me from doing the things I enjoy. SpongeBob: Yeah! And you can enjoy brand new things, too! CDCB: (smiling) Thanks for cheering me up, SpongeBob. You know, sometimes you may be annoying, SpongeBob, but in truth, you really are a good friend. SpongeBob: (in an awkward voice) Aww…thanks. CDCB: Don’t mention it, SpongeBob. Don’t mention it. (Fade to me inside SpongeBob’s pineapple. SpongeBob and Patrick have blindfolded me. SpongeBob and Patrick are inside guiding me around since I obviously can’t see.) CDCB: Come on, guys. What…what are we doing? SpongeBob: (snickers) It’s a surprise… Patrick: Yeah! We’re going to— SpongeBob: (quickly covering Patrick’s mouth) –tell you later. (laughs nervously) CDCB: (shrugs) Uh, okay.SpongeBob: C’mon! Let’s go. (Cut to SpongeBob, Patrick, and I leaving SpongeBob’s Pineapple. SpongeBob and Patrick each hold one of my fins.) CDCB: Are you sure you can’t tell me what’s going on? SpongeBob: Sorry. No can do. Just wait and see. CDCB: (sigh) Ah…okay. (Cut to the exterior of the Krusty Krab. SpongeBob and Patrick continue to guide me there.) SpongeBob: Almost there…and…we made it! CDCB: Okay, can I look now? SpongeBob: Not yet… CDCB: What?! But you said we’re here! SpongeBob: The surprise is inside. CDCB: (sigh) Fine… (SpongeBob and Patrick guide me inside the Krusty Krab. Camera cuts to Krusty Krab interior. Inside the building, everyone in Bikini Bottom, not including Plankton, can be seen. This includes some new friends I haven’t met yet. The Krusty Krab is decorated with streamers, ribbons, and a banner that reads “Welcome CDCB!”) SpongeBob: Okay…you can look now! (slowly takes off the blindfold) Everyone but CDCB: Surprise!!! Welcome to Bikini Bottom, CDCB!!! CDCB: (stunned) I’m so surprised...I…I don’t know what to say… SpongeBob: We wanted to throw you a welcome party. It’s our way of saying, ‘Welcome to our side of the ocean!’ CDCB: Gee, thanks everyone. I really appreciate it. Sandy: Hey, that’s what friends are for! Mr. Krabs: Enough chatter! Who wants some Krabby Patties? (The whole crowed roars out of excitement...not literally. Camera cuts to SpongeBob, Patrick, and I sitting at one table, eating our Krabby Patties.) CDCB: (to SpongeBob and Patrick) You know what? I may have lost my family, friends and everyone in my previous life, but to be honest, life here in Bikini Bottom isn’t so bad. I could get used to this. SpongeBob: That’s the spirit, CDCB! We have all kinds of adventures in Bikini Bottom! I just know there are some waiting right here for us! Patrick: Yeah! CDCB: Yes, and I can’t wait to see what kinds of adventures this new life brings about. (sigh) I think I’m gonna like it here.
