The Krusty Krab: The Years Before Spongebob

[Ron]

Episode 29#: The Band

Bikini Bottom was being overrun with quartets. So, as a result, Tim, Tom, Squidward, and Jim formed The Krusty Krabbers.

ÔÇ£I hate our name!ÔÇØ Squidward complained.

ÔÇ£Deal with it,ÔÇØ Jim said. ÔÇ£We have to write our first song.ÔÇØ

Everyone thought for a moment. It was evening and everyone had gone home. Mr. Krabs had told them to lock up and he left. They were now writing theyÔÇÖre first hit single.

ÔÇ£How about a song called Hot nÔÇÖ Cold?ÔÇØ Jim said. ÔÇ£YaÔÇÖ know? TheyÔÇÖre different.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Na, already been done,ÔÇØ Tom said, swatting away the idea.

ÔÇ£Crack a Bottle?ÔÇØ Tim suggested.

ÔÇ£Already done,ÔÇØ Tom said.

ÔÇ£Papparazzi?ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£Are you guys original at all??ÔÇØ Tom said.

ÔÇ£No. WeÔÇÖre just copying the songs off of Kidz Bop,ÔÇØ Jim confessed.

ÔÇ£I got it! Boom Boom Cow! Boom Boom Cow!ÔÇØ Tim said.

ÔÇ£Brilliant!ÔÇØ Tom said. They instantly wrote the lyrics and soon Boom Boom Cow was everywhere. On T-Shirts, TV, radio, on MooTube, YouTube, Metacafe, and everywhere else!

They then continued to take the music category by storm with hits like Joker Face, Crack a Cradle, Gimme Whore, and other songs.

ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖre bigger than Lady Gaga, Eminem, Ke$ha, and Adam Lambert combined! The freak, the rapper, the dirty pop girl, and the gay guy!ÔÇØ Squidward had been picking on all sorts of stars since they made it to Number 1 on the charts.

ÔÇ£Dude you better shut up. Some big shot it going to walk through that door right now and youÔÇÖre going to be like-

John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Michael Jackson, and Elvis Presley walked through the doors of the Krusty Krab.

ÔÇ£Hello. I would like a Krabby Patty,ÔÇØ Ringo said.

ÔÇ£He He!ÔÇØ Michael said.

ÔÇ£Oh my god. Your dead!ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£Your never dead,ÔÇØ John said.

ÔÇ£If you believe! I can sing in the dead!! Watch!ÔÇØ Michael then started to sing:

[Leona Lewis: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W5dYw1eQuMv]

Leona Lewis then barged in.

ÔÇ£ThatÔÇÖs my song dammit!ÔÇØ She slapped him and ran out.

ÔÇ£DonÔÇÖt make fun of us!ÔÇØ John said.

ÔÇ£Okay. Just donÔÇÖt kill me!ÔÇØ Squidward didnÔÇÖt like The Beatles when they came back to life and told him not to make fun of them.

From then on, The Krusty Krabbers went downhill.

Due to problems, the finale will be posted later than expected.

Episode 30: Luck Be a Fish Tonight! (Viva Fish Vegas)

[Kung Fu Fighting:

ÔÇ£Keep frying them patties, Mr. Jim! We got tons of customers!!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said.

ÔÇ£Ok! Ok! ItÔÇÖs as fast as I can go!ÔÇØ Jim said. He was flipping 30 patties a minute. Mr. Krab then raced back out. Jay and Marly were working the register. Squidward was taking orders and delivering food while Tim and Tom did the same.

Suddenly three business officials entered the restaurant. Everything went silent.

(Kung Fu Panda Ends)

ÔÇ£Yes?ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs asked coming out.

[Christmas Cash:

ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖre from Money Indu$trie$. WeÔÇÖre here to tell you that The Krusty Krab is the first billion dollar restaurant in the world. You, Eugene Krabs, are a billionaire.ÔÇØ

Mr. Krabs was speechless. He suddenly started singing and dancing.

ÔÇ£IÔÇÖM A FREAKIN BILLIONAIRE!!!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Congrats Mr. K,ÔÇØ Jim said coming out of the kitchen.

ÔÇ£And so are you guys!!!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs shouted.

Jim dropped his spatula. He then joined Mr. Krabs in singing and dancing. Everyone else soon joined in and were singing and dancing.

ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖre closed for today!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said. ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖre billionaires!ÔÇØ

~ ~ ~

That night, everyone decided to go on a trip after the excellent news.

ÔÇ£How about Egypt?ÔÇØ Squidward suggested. He had gone on a shopping spree at Kiss Me, IÔÇÖm Rich and gotten tons of things, spending $12,000 which was a little bit to what he had now. He was wearing a spectacle and wore a gold coat.

ÔÇ£Oh the pharaohs!ÔÇØ Marly said. She was wearing a diamond necklace.

ÔÇ£How about France? The place of croissants and art. Les grands magasins ?á Paris!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£What?ÔÇØ Marmaduke asked. He was eating 200 dollar bread.

ÔÇ£Shopping spree in Paris! I would love to go back there!ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£YouÔÇÖve already been there?ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs asked.

ÔÇ£Yes. I speak French,ÔÇØ Marly replied.

ÔÇ£Ah,ÔÇØ Jay said.

ÔÇ£How about Las Vegas?ÔÇØ Jim said.

ÔÇ£ThatÔÇÖs brilliant!ÔÇØ Tom said.

ÔÇ£I love it!ÔÇØ Tim said.

ÔÇ£Ah, good oleÔÇÖ gambling!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said.

ÔÇ£Are we going to Las Vegas? If so, I choose the hotel,ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£Fine. VIVA LAS VEGAS!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs yelled.

~ ~ ~

The following morning, everyone was up and packing. They had bought an enormous RV, which was around 9,000 dollars, and were loading theyÔÇÖre luggage in.

They hired a driver named Marvin and two servants named Bob and Bill.

ÔÇ£LetÔÇÖs get going!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said. Bob and Bill carried each person into the RV until they were all inside.

ÔÇ£Las Vegas or bust!ÔÇØ Squidward was excited.

ÔÇ£Oh I canÔÇÖt wait to stop and take pictures!ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£NOO!ÔÇØ Everyone groaned.

[Perfect Day Plays:

[Perfect Day ends]

It was night.

ÔÇ£Oh please never make us go back there!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Especially the big ball of yarn!ÔÇØ Jay said and shuddered.

ÔÇ£Here we are sir,ÔÇØ Marvin suddenly announced. ÔÇ£Las Vegas.ÔÇØ

All the light shined down at them. It was awesome.

[Waking Up in Vegas plays: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qfo_dmt0tc

ÔÇ£Look! MGM!ÔÇØ Marly shouted.

ÔÇ£Oh my god! Paris Hilton!ÔÇØ Marmaduke said.

ÔÇ£WhatÔÇÖs Paris Hilton doing in Las Vegas?ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs asked.

ÔÇ£Probably at a strip club,ÔÇØ Tim replied.

ÔÇ£Treasure Island,ÔÇØ Tom said.

ÔÇ£I never liked the movie,ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£I read the book,ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said.

ÔÇ£Did you like it?ÔÇØ Jay asked.

ÔÇ£Uggh, no. It was horrible!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said.

ÔÇ£Shamrock Shake! McDonalds! STOP!ÔÇØ Marly said. They then pulled over and bought food in the drive through.

ÔÇ£Tropicana!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs shouted.

ÔÇ£ItÔÇÖs Excalibur!ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£The kingdom of kingdoms,ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£It doesnÔÇÖt beat The Magical Kingdom,ÔÇØ Jay muttered.

ÔÇ£DonÔÇÖt be a baby,ÔÇØ Marly said and laughed.

ÔÇ£The Hilton!ÔÇØ Marmaduke then said.

ÔÇ£Hey, itÔÇÖs mini New York!ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£New York New York,ÔÇØ Tom said.

ÔÇ£Planet Hollywood,ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£Mandalay Bay,ÔÇØ Jim said after awhile.

ÔÇ£Where do you want to stay Squidward?ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs asked.

Squidward thought for a bit. ÔÇ£The Stratosphere.ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£YAY!ÔÇØ Marly said as they rode to the hotel.

[Waking Up in Vegas Ends]

They checked in and then went up to theyÔÇÖre rooms, which were penthouses.

~ ~ ~

Everyone got up the next morning and went down to the casino and had a blast.

[Poker Face starts:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qfo_dmt0tc

ÔÇ£Haha! You lost 50 bucks!ÔÇØ Marly said to Tom when she heard what had happened with him and a slot machine.

ÔÇ£So. You lost 200!ÔÇØ Tom said.

Marly shrugged. She then ran off towards a blackjack dealer.

For the rest of the morning, they ran around the casino and were purely having fun.

ÔÇ£LetÔÇÖs go up and ride the rides!ÔÇØ Marmaduke said.

They then all took the elevator up and rode on the rollercoaster.

ÔÇ£AHHHHH!ÔÇØ Marly screamed.

ÔÇ£Oh, this is freaky!ÔÇØ Jay said.

ÔÇ£WOO HOO!ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs was enjoying the ride. Suddenly it all stopped.

ÔÇ£Hey! What gives?ÔÇØ Tim said.

Suddenly the track abruptly swung off the side of the building and was suspended over Las Vegas below.

ÔÇ£Oh my God!ÔÇØ Tom said who didnÔÇÖt go on the ride.

ÔÇ£WeÔÇÖre going to die!ÔÇØ Jay said.

Marly instantly thought back to the time when Jay and her were on the Farris Wheel and she had almost died.

ÔÇ£Help!ÔÇØ Jim screamed.

ÔÇ£IÔÇÖm too beautiful to die!ÔÇØ Squidward screeched.

Jay suddenly stood up.

ÔÇ£Sit down, Jay!ÔÇØ Marly said.

ÔÇ£IÔÇÖm saving all of you,ÔÇØ Jay says.

ÔÇ£Jay, sit down!ÔÇØ Marly shrieked.

ÔÇ£I love you,ÔÇØ Jay said, and kissed Marly. He then ran to the back of the cars and jumped onto the track. He ran onto the platform and swung a cord over. It attached to the track. Jay swung it over and then got back onto the track. He tied it underneath to secure it.

ÔÇ£Are you okay sweetie?ÔÇØ Marly called.

ÔÇ£Yeah!ÔÇØ Jay finished tying it and then started to walk back to the car. He suddenly slipped off the track and down to the streets below.

ÔÇ£JAY! JAY! NOOO! JAY!!!ÔÇØ Marly stared over and started shrieking and crying.

ÔÇ£Marly, let him go. HeÔÇÖll be with Ms. Flounders. HeÔÇÖll be in a better place,ÔÇØ Mr. Krabs said.

ÔÇ£NO DAMMIT!ÔÇØ Marly whacked Mr. Krabs and he flew against the car wall. In one second, the cord snapped abruptly and Marly and Tim were jerked out of the car.

ÔÇ£Oh my god!ÔÇØ Squidward said looking over.

Episode 31: If U Seek Trident Part 1

Jay had not survived. Marmaduke wasnÔÇÖt sure how to cope with yet another loss. Marly and Tim were okay, with some scratches and broken bones. The gang had left Las Vegas and was now back in the Krusty Krab. The day was clearly slow and Mr. Krabs was lounging around. Marmaduke was trying to hold back the tears. He had tried to commit suicide several times, but his plans were thwarted by his friends.

Suddenly, a carriage pulled by seahorses pulled up in front of the Krusty Krab. Out stepped an enormous figure known by the name of King Neptune. He strolled up to the restaurant and smashed the doors open with his trident.

ÔÇ£Hello! My name is King Neptune!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Hi! IÔÇÖm Marmaduke!ÔÇØ Everyone was surprised by Marmaduke who was suddenly happy.

ÔÇ£Hello,ÔÇØ King Neptune said.

The massive body of the king moved swiftly throughout the restaurant and stopped to gaze at Mr. Krabs. He then heard a voice from behind him and saw the bandaged body of Jay.

"And who is that, Marmaduke?" he asked.

"That's...Jay," Marmaduke said. "We thought he was dead."

"Nah. They let me go," Jay replied.

"So, Kingy. What'll it be?" Mr. Krabs asked. King Neptune suddenly swirled around and glared at Mr. Krabs.

"I...do...not...like..being...called...KINGY!" he howled.

"Whatever floats your boat, Kingy," Mr. Krabs said.

"GARRRRRRHJHA!" King Neptune suddenly yanked out his trident and blasted Mr. Krabs through the roof.

"Where'd he go?ÔÇØ

~ ~ ~

ÔÇ£HeÔÇÖs in space!?ÔÇØ Squidward said.

ÔÇ£WhatÔÇÖd you come for, anyways?ÔÇØ Marmaduke asked.

Becausemy trident was stolen.

ÔÇ£ButÔǪitÔÇÖs right there,ÔÇ Jim said.

ÔÇ£This is a replica that happens to have electricity. But my real trident was stolen when I returned from Conchtropolis. Whoever stole it currently has power over all of the sea!ÔÇØ King Neptune was in shreds.

Butwhy would you come here? Marly asked.

ÔÇ£Because IÔÇÖve had troubles with Eugene before and it turned out it was an accident. So, I thought he was getting revenge. Apparently not.ÔÇØ

Ok, Squidward said.

ÔÇ£I want you to get it,ÔÇØ the king said abruptly.

ÔÇ£WHAT?ÔÇØ Jay said.

ÔÇ£Huh?ÔÇØ Tim and Tom said.

ÔÇ£ThatÔÇÖs right!ÔÇØ King Neptune said. ÔÇ£Go and retrieve Eugene first and then set out across the blue ocean.ÔÇØ

Umm, Squidward said.

ÔÇ£Well?ÔÇØ Neptune asked. ÔÇ£What are you waiting for?ÔÇØ He pulled out a tiny gray substance and blew into it. It exploded into an enormous space ship. He shoved them all inside and shoved it up.

ÔÇ£AHHHH!ÔÇØ everyone screamed as they blasted off into space.

If U Seek Trident Part 2

The gang set off. They were attempting to find a space ship which could then take them up into space and to the Bikini Bottom Space Station, on which Mr. Krabs had landed on. Everyone was on a bus, heading to New Kelp City where they hoped a former astronaut, Vernon, could help them. As they rounded the corner leading to his street, an explosion suddenly erupted from the bottom of the wheels. The bus careened over the fire hydrant and landed laying across the street in flames.?á

"What the hell?" Marly was scared as the heat wrapped around her like a warm blanket. Smoke billowed up. The bus would soon be filled with smoke and the gang would be dead.?á

"How do we get out?" Squidward was just as scared as Marly was and seeing dead passengers around him didn't make the matter any better.?á

"Is...is that Jay?" Jim pointed to a wheel chair tipped over. Marly crawled over to the location that Jay was pointing to and peered behind the wheel chair. Jay was laying there, bleeding.?á

"Is he dead?" Marmaduke asked. Of course, he thought. My hopes go up, then they ?ágo up, then they go down.?á

"I don't know," Marly replied. She certainly hoped not.?á

"We've got to get out of here," Jim said. "It's filling up with smoke fast."?á

"How?" Squidward looked around and then it dropped on him. "The emergency exits!"?á

"Oh my god!" Jim said. "How could we have been so stupid?!"?á

"Well let's go!" Marmaduke said.?á

"We can't leave Jay!" Marly cried.?á

"Marly, we have to," Squidward said.?á

"We don't have to do anything!"?á

"Thank you, Marmaduke. Now come and help me pick him up," Marly said.?á

Jim suddenly started to choke. "I..can't take it anymore." He suddenly collapsed.

"Jim?" Squidward bent over him.?á

Meanwhile, Marmaduke and Marly continued to tend to Jay. They had managed to lift him up, but lifting him into smoke wasn't good so they decided to drag him which proved to be a challenging task.?á

"Come on, Marmaduke!" The two pulled and pulled and eventually got close enough to the emergency exit that they could see the glowing sun. They lifted Jay out and then crawled out.?á

They say the smiling face of Squidward.?á

"There you are!" Squidward then grabbed Jay and pressed his lips against Jay's.?á

~~~

"Tom! TOM!"?á

Tom woke up and looked into the faces of Mr. Krabs and Jay.?á

"Was that...a dream?"?á

"You tell me," Mr. Krabs said and punched Tom in the face.?á

~~~?á

Marly saw Mr. Krabs and Jay.?á

"Mr. Krabs! We found you!" She looked around the small room, "But where are the others?"?á

"For me to know....and you to find out. Lights out you snooping bitch." Mr. Krabs pulled out a butchers knife.?á

~~~?á

"Those fools," a voice said. "They don't know what hit them."?á

"Please...this doesn't feel right."?á

"You rather argue with me...Jay?"?á

"No," Jay said to..King Neptune. ?á?á

SECOND FESTIVAL EPISODE

[Ron]

It was another normal day at the Krusty Krab. The gang had gotten Mr. Krabs back after the whole mishap and everyone was tired. But what added to their sleepy attitude was that the sun was blazing down on them and it was around one hundred and two degrees.

"Go get the ice, will yah, Jay?" Mr. Krabs said.

"Why don't you?"

"Cause I'm the boss," Mr. Krabs replied.

"Whatever," Jay said and got up. He walked into the freezer and screamed in horror.

To be continued.....

Right now....

"What is it?" Mr. Krabs yelled. Everyone raced in and found Jay standing in front of a body in solid ice.

"That's....Mayor Jones from twenty years ago!!" Marly said.

"How do you know?" Tom asked.

"Because they have a memorial for him every year and last week was the 20th Anniversary. I read about it in the paper," she said.

"Why would he be stuck in a block of ice though?" Marmaduke said.

"Maybe because people gave him the cold shoulder?" Mr. Krabs said, jokingly.

"Well was he murdered?" asked Tim.

"Yup," said Jay. He peeing at the body. "There are three wounds on his side here, probably from a butter knife."

"So we call the cops, right?" Jim said.

"Well we aren't of any use," remarked Mr. Krabs.

"Where's a phone?" Marmaduke walked out back into the front room when he yelled for everyone to come.

"What is it?" Mr. Krabs looked up and saw a swarm of police officers.

"Put your hands up!"

"Ah shoot," Mr. Krabs said, raising his hand.

....

INTERROGATION ROOM

"Well, Mr. Krabs, you have quite the rap sheet," Officer Sully said, pacing back in front of Mr. Krabs. He was twitching in his chair as the officer walked back and forth.

"You stole candy from kids?"

"No....," said Mr. Krabs.

"Mr. Krabs, don't you dare lie to me. I can arrest you right now, so you might as well start spilling," Officer Sully screamed into Mr. Krab's face.

"Fine," Mr. Krabs said, sighing. "It started a few years ago."

~~~

Jay and Marly stood in a room alone together, making out. Marly suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong honey?"

[stop and Stare by OneRepublic plays:

"I don't know...but, Jay," she said. "I don't-

Jay shoved his lips against hers, but Marly pulled away once again.

"Jay-," she said.

"What's wrong?" He was worried.

"Jay," she said. "This year we've been together has been really, really great." She then started to cry.

"Baby, what's wrong?"

"Jay-I don't think is what I'm looking for right now...and..," she started.

"What? What are you holding back?" Jay started to cry.

"Jay-I'm leaving to Shell City...and I'm not coming back.." said Marly. She started to cry.

"Was it something I said?" Jay said, distraught.

"No," she said. "No. I love you...but I got accepted to Shell City University."

"Well then why do you want to break up..," Jay said, tears falling.

"I just don't think it's what I'm looking for." Marly gave Jay a kiss.

"Goodbye Marly," said Jay.

As the shadows closed on on Marly, Jay smiled about everything that had happened. Jay started to walk the other way when he stopped, looked around, and stared at Marly.

He smiled.

Episode 34: Killer Lady

The wind whipped at the woman's hair. Bikini Bottom was experiencing one of the worst storms they'd ever had. Lightning painted the sky. The lady gazed at the Krusty Krab, hating the building. She slipped her hand into her jacket pocket and wrapped her bony fingers around a small gun. The coldness of the weapon somehow soothed her. Was she crazy? Yes. But was she smart? Yes. The lady then started to walk towards the Krusty Krab, her destination not inside the restaurant. Once she reached the wooden building, she quickly darted towards the side. Thunder boomed overhead, although the lady didn't mind. She welcomed fear, as well as death. Although she despised rain, which is why she was wearing a jet black raincoat. The lady looked up at the sky and closed her eyes. For once, she let the rain drops splatter on her face. The wetness felt great, a feeling she hadn't felt in so long. She then pulled herself back to the mission. She pulled out a small square box, so tiny it was hardly noticeable. She knelt down and set it on the side of the Krusty Krab, almost entirely covered by the dumpster. She turned a dial on it and then melted away into the darkness.

---

"Thanks for being so cool about this, Mr. Krabs," Marly said, taking her things out of her work locker.

"Eh...all me employees will leave at some time," said Mr. Krabs. "Yer time has come."

"Thank you," replied Marly. She stood up peered one more time into her locker. "That's everything." She walked back out to the front of the restaurant where all of her friends stood. "Thank you, everyone. Just for everyone."

They then all embraced each other in a group hug, including a weeping Mr. Krabs.

"Well...," she said. "I probably need to get going. She walked past them all, giving them each an individual hug. When she came to Jay, she looked at him and gave a quick kiss on the cheek. Marly then walked out into the rain and ran to her boatmobile, trying not to get wet. She then pulled out into the street, and departed.

On a hill a few miles from the Krusty Krab, the lady was sprawled on the hill with high tech binoculars in her hands. She watched Marly drive down the street, coming closer to her doom. The woman chucked, watching the boatmobile crawl closer towards her. A few minutes before Marly would cross the lady's path, she stood up and pulled out her gun. She checked to make sure it was loaded and then settled back down in her sprawled-out position. On several other hill surrounding the area were her other comrads, many armed with explosives instead of a small firearm. One of her friends had put a small bombs, lining the street which would be triggered when something passed over it. She laughed at Little Miss Marly getting blown to smithereens. She looked in her binoculars once again and saw that Marly was dangerously close. She checked her gun one more time and aimed it at her car. As she her boatmobile climbed over the horizon, everyone in the group prepared themselves to run. The car then passed down the hills and was around ten feet away from the bombs. All at once, there was a snap as several guns fired, a boom from bazookas, and an enormous explosion that shook the grown. The sky was lit and the lady admired it for a second before it engulfed her in one second.

---

"Oh my god! Oh my god!" Marmaduke yelped as the ground shook.

"Look!" Jim pointed to the bright orange, mushroom cloud a few miles away.

"Marly..," rasped Jay. He suddenly took off into the rain, sprinting towards the explosion.

"JAY!" Marmaduke screeched. "Dammit, Jay." He ran out the door after him.

The two raced towards the cloud of smoke, and soon were forced into a crouch position. Ash covered the ground and thick smoke hung in the air. The smoke stung their eyes, so they relied on their hearing and feel sense only. The two could hardly breath and were constantly coughing. There was no going back-they were stuck in a maze of hell. Jay suddenly felt a piece of hot metal on the ground with his right hand. He tried to tell Marmaduke but he started to choke when he made the attempt. Jay suddenly felt like this mission was hopeless. Was Marly dead? Jay then found the energy to pull through and then felt flesh. He opened his eyes and saw Marly, bleeding and lifeless on the floor. He felt the sting in his eyes-from the tears and from the smoke. He felt for a pulse and felt relieved when he found one.

"Marly," he sputtered. "Marly?!" He examined her body and founder she was bruised, missing skin, stabbed, burned, bleeding, and looked in pain all over. He then noticed her pinkie finger was missing on her left hand. He grabbed her ankle and started to drag her back towards the Krusty Krab, not sure if Marmaduke was following.

---

"I wonder if she's okay," Squidward worried.

Mr. Krabs sobbed. "She was such a good employee."

"I already miss Marly," Tim said, a tear streaming down his cheek.

Suddenly, the door burst open and Jay dragged Marly in. This was when the gang realized the whole outside of the Krusty Krab was wrapped in smoke.

"Is she alright? Is she alive? What happened? What was the explosion from?" The questions flooded Jay's brain. He couldn't answer any of them.

"Everyone shut the hell up. Help me." They swarmed around her, not sure what to do.

"Try and stop the bleeding," Jim said. "And put a wet cloth over the burns." Everyone rushed around trying to do something to help. As they all scrambled around, a man covered in soot walked in and pulled out a machine gun.

"Everyone shut the fuck up and get on the floor," he ordered.

[Ron]

Episode 35: Secrets?

The man eyed Mr. Krabs as he held the the gun straight at Jay.

"Anyone moves, and I'll blow their sorry ass off," the man threatened. No one moved. They sat on the floor, each hoping they would live. Who was this man?

"Wh-who are you?" Marmaduke suddenly spoke up. He then squeezed his eyes shut. The fish looked at Marmaduke, and his jaw popped out. He walked over to him and raised his foot to his face. The blow sent Marmaduke hurling back towards the wall, blood gushing out. He howled in pain, clutching his jaw.

"DON'T FUCKING SPEAK!" the man barked. He then strutted back towards the door and peered out of the window. Ash still fell, but the smoke was less heavy. "Aight, I'm going out. But there are eyes on this building so if anyone moves, you'll be shot dead." He walked out the door and into the smoke and ash.

"What is going on?" Jay asked through clenched teeth.

"I don't know," Squidward replied. They heard a moan and saw Marmaduke in the corner, blood dripping from his mangled face.

"Marmaduke?" whispered Jim. "Marmaduke?"

No response. But they knew he was alive...he just didn't have the balls to tell them that.

Suddenly their was a boom and the front doors of the Krusty Krab exploded as wind blew against their faces along with glass. The friends shut their eyes. Smoke filled up the Krusty Krab and everyone started to cough.

"We have to get Marly and Marmaduke out of here!" Squidward yelped. There was another series of explosions that shook the building so much that the roof collapsed. Pieces of wood flew everywhere as everyone tried to dive under tables. There was a roar and the sound of glass shattering.

"What's going on?!" Marmaduke asked, finally speaking.

"I don't know," Squidward whispered.

"Into the kitchen!" Mr. Krabs hollered.

"Come on," Squidward said. He dragged Marmaduke into the kitchen where everyone else already was.

"What do we do?" Squidward yelped. Suddenly there was an enormous explosion that engulfed the gang. The fire wrapped around them like a blanket, burning them badly.

"Oh..my-" Jim coughed. Gunfire sounded outside of the building. More smoke found it's way into their lungs.

"You-" Mr. Krabs started. Another explosion washed over them. Wood from the Krusty Krab crashed onto them.

"I'm getting out of this hell hole," Tom said. He crawled out of the wreckage and saw the air was full of smoke, fire, and chaos.

"GET HIM!" a voice roared. Tom suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest and then warmness. He collapsed onto the heap of rubble, close to death.

"H-help m-m-me," he muttered. He heard rushing feet and saw a police officer standing over him. "Help me," he managed."

"Shh," she said. A bullet whizzed over her head, inches from her blond hair. She pulled out her gun and shot the shooter and then dragged Ex behind a SWAT car where SWAT and police fired at the other side of villains.

"FUCK YOU ALL!!" a fish roared. He pushed a button and a series of explosions blew up around them and around Bikini Bottom.

There was a scream as the SWAT car flew up into the air from a bomb. Tom was flung a few feet away and hit his head hard on a rock. He was out cold as blood gushed from his cranium.

----

"He knows," the lady whispered to him as the dirt was lifted up from their bombs.

"Knows what?"

"Our secrets, our plans-and she knows as well."

"Then we kill them. Come on." The two arose as fire flew around them and walked towards the ruins of the Krusty Krab.

Episode 36: The Truth

The two crept down on the floor, trying to avoid all bullets streaming above their heads.

"Move!" the man rasped. They got up and darted towards the rubble that was the Krusty Krab. "He's there!" They grabbed Mr. Krabs who was unconscious and dragged him towards a car that was a few feet a way. They dumped him in the trunk and drove away. They stopped around fifteen miles away and gulped the fresh air.

"Smell that, Lin? That's the smell of freedom!" the man explained.

"Get him, Roddy," the lady said, not smiling. "Now."

"Fine, fine." Roddy got out of the car and opened the trunk. Mr. Krabs was still out cold but something was odd-he was glowing yellow. "Hey, uh, Lin! Do crabs glow yellow?"

"What are you talking about?" Lin got out of the car and headed towards Roddy. She looked down at Mr. Krabs and saw he was in fact glowing yellow. "Er...how the hell did that happen?"

"I don't know! I checked on him like ya' said," Roddy exclaimed.

Lin bit her lip. "Get in the car."

"But I want to-"

"GET in the car," she yelled. He winced and got into the car, slamming the door. Lin closed her eyes and continued to bite her lip. She suddenly heard gunfire and ducked as around twenty bullets pelted the car with a loud BANG. She looked around and couldn't see anything in the dense fog. She slowly rounded around towards the car and got in.

"FLOOR IT!" she yelled. The car took off, going around 89 MPH. In the trunk, Mr. Krabs opened his eyes and screamed. He felt his way around the small space and the claustrophobia took over.

"HELP! HELP!! HELLLLLLLLLLPPPPP!!" he yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Shut that bastard up," Lin said to Roddy. He braked and got out with a tranquilizer gun. He shot Mr. Krabs once, slammed the trunk hood down, and then got in the car.

"When do we interrogate him?" Roddy asked.

"Soon," replied Lin. "Soon enough." Roddy nodded and slammed his foot on the pedal. They jerked ahead, and zoomed down the road.

----

"TELL ME THE TRUTH!!" Lin screamed at Mr. Krabs. They were interrogating him. "NOW!" She slapped him another time. Mr. Krabs didn't look like the man everyone knew and...well, I guess no one really loved him.

"Fine....I'm...I'm...I did it," Mr. Krabs wept.

Lin smiled at her victory.

[Ron]

Episode 37: The Real Truth

Lin and Roddy stared at Mr. Krabs who was bound and duct taped.

"Why did you do, Eugene?" Lin whispered. She ripped the duct tape off of his mouth and he howled in pain.

"Why did you do it?" Roddy snapped.

"I had...I had no-o other choice."

"Yes," Lin said, her eyes growing wide. "Yes, you did. You had so many chances, it makes me sick that you chose to do what you did."

"I'm sorry," Mr. Krabs whispered. "It was by accident."

"MURDER," she screamed, "IS NOT DONE BY ACCIDENT, YOU SON OF A BITCH! SAYING SORRY WILL NOT BRING MY MOTHER BACK!"

"I didn't murder your mother."

"You fucking ran her over with your fucking bulldozer on purpose. ADMIT THAT!" Lin screeched.

"I AIN'T GOING TO ADMIT A DAMN LIE," Mr. Krabs yelled.

Lin's eyes burned with fierce hatred, her fins balled tightly in fists. "Give me a gun." When there was no response she turned to Roddy. "GIVE ME A GUN!"

"Killing him won't make anything better," Roddy said.

Lin turned around and stared at Roddy. She then socked him in the nose and he collapsed on the ground. She pounced on him and pulled the gun out of his holster. She then got back up and aimed at Mr. Krabs.

"You...will not feel the pain my mother felt. I am Lin Flounders, daughter of who you call "Ms. Flounders."" Lin pressed the trigger and a bullet exploded from the gun, entering Mr. Krabs.

----

"Help," Marmaduke croaked. "Help!" He tried moving some of the wreckage on top of him, but failed. "HELP!" Suddenly, two cops appeared and pulled Marmaduke up.

"You're safe," one police officer said. "Can you walk?"

"No," Marmaduke said. The officer nodded and then the two carried Marmaduke towards a series of police cars.

"Do you know what the hell happened?" the second officer asked once they reached the safety of the nest of officers.

"Not a clue," Marmaduke said, trying to rack his brain. "They just told us to shut up and then they blew the building. I think the target was Marly."

"Marly?"

"My friend and a former waitress at the Krusty Krab-she quit this morning."

"Get in a police car. We need all witnesses safe."

-----

"Pissed off? Well too bad." The muscular fish sat across from Marly in a dark room with a single light.

"How did you find me?" Marly asked.

"Ways, bitch."

"I'm not a bad person," said Marly, looking up. "I've been a criminal for too long."

"I can see that," the fish said, leaning in, so close that Marly could smell his minty fresh breath. "But hey sis...you shouldn't have killed my dad-your fucking step-dad. You have no fucking clue what he had to put up with." The fish started to cry and got up, towering over Marly. "YOU FUCKING BITCH!" He socked Marly in the face and stormed out of the room.

[Ron]

Episode 38: The Liar

Mr. Krabs fell back in the chair, bleeding.

ÔÇ£Goodbye Roddy,ÔÇØ Lin said. She turned around and shot the crumpled Roddy who was already bleeding once in the chest. Lin then calmly walked out to the car and drove away.

----

The day was over. The smoke had eventually lifted and all the hostiles had fled. The police then discovered Marly bound and duct taped to a chair inside a bathroom outside of The Krusty Krab. The Krusty Krab had been destroyed for the second time. But this time completely.

ÔÇ£Marly? Marly?ÔÇØ Jay said. He had run in towards her. He had unbound her. But she did NOT look good.

ÔÇ£Sir, step aside,ÔÇØ a police officer said, walking up. He picked Marly up and jogged over to an ambulance. Jay stared as the ambulance rushed away to the Bikini Bottom Hospital. He then realized that Marly had broken up with him just before this horrific ordeal. Jay walked away and saw Squidward and Tom sitting together. Tim was speaking to a doctor who was attending to a customer who was inside the restaurant at the time of the explosion. But where was Mr. Krabs? Jay walked surveyed the aftermath and saw that he wasnÔÇÖt there.

ÔÇ£Hey Jim,ÔÇØ he said, walking up to him.

ÔÇ£WhatÔÇÖs up?ÔÇØ Jim replied.

ÔÇ£I canÔÇÖt find Mr. Krabs,ÔÇØ he said.

ÔÇ£What do you mean? The doctors are probably attending to him,ÔÇØ said Jim.

ÔÇ£No, I checked everywhere. HeÔÇÖs not here,ÔÇØ replied Jay.

ÔÇ£Hmm,ÔÇØ Jim said, thinking. ÔÇ£LetÔÇÖs go find him.ÔÇØ He got up and followed Jay away from the Krusty Krab lot.

ÔÇ£Tracks,ÔÇØ Jim suddenly said. He gestured to the ground where tire tracks had been made in the sand.

ÔÇ£Cars arenÔÇÖt allowed behind here,ÔÇØ Jay said.

ÔÇ£Then where was this car boatmobile going?ÔÇØ Jim asked. They followed the tracks for about an hour before they arrived at a house.

ÔÇ£LetÔÇÖs go in,ÔÇØ Jay said excitedly.

ÔÇ£Hello?ÔÇØ Jim called at the house.

Hellpp..pp, a weak voice said.

ÔÇ£Hello?ÔÇØ Jay said. They walked into the house and saw Mr. Krabs tied to a chair on the floor bleeding.

ÔÇ£Help,ÔÇØ he said.

ÔÇ£Mr. Krabs!ÔÇØ Jim exclaimed. They untied him and helped him up.

ÔÇ£She shot me,ÔÇØ he said. ÔÇ£SheÔÇÖs the leader! SheÔÇÖs the leader!ÔÇØ

ÔÇ£Who? Who is the leader?ÔÇØ Jim asked.

Mr. Krabs looked at him, a look of terror and exhaustion mixed onto his face. ÔÇ£Marly.ÔÇØ

----

Suddenly, cops sprung out of nowhere in the hospital room.

ÔÇ£Excuse me, but this patient was-

ÔÇ£This patient is on the FBIÔÇÖs Top 10 Most Wanted list,ÔÇØ an officer said. They picked her up and cuffed her.

ÔÇ£Marly Mantoya, youÔÇÖre under arrest for the murders of Lin Flounders and Stephen Gerald.ÔÇØ

----

[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF_6vubbyW8&feature=related plays]

Jay was confused. He did not know Mr. Krabs met. Had Marly been a murderer? He wouldnÔÇÖt have cared. Jay loved Marly, even if she didnÔÇÖt love him back. He then thought of all the time heÔÇÖd spent with her.

----

It rained that night. As everyone thought about the last 48 hours, a sponge moved into a pineapple on Conch street. Squidward stared out the window, watching the yellow sponge. It then walked away. It walked to the Krusty Krab and stared at it. He cried. He was going to apply for a job. His name was Spongebob.

[Ron]

Episode 39: Answered

It was all over. The whole mess was finally over. Lin and the rest of her team had simply wanted revenge on Mr. Krabs for killing her mother...they didn't know it had been accidental. But now the gang faced another problem...facing the fact that Marly was a criminal.

(them song plays)

Marly sat in her jail cell. There had been no trial. They had had enough evidence to convict her on the spot. The prison she was being held in terrible...cold and smelly. She had killed her stepfather, Stephen Gerald. But not Lin. She didn't even know Lin was dead. A loud CLANK yanked her from her thoughts. Jay entered.

"Hi," he said, smiling.

"Hi," she said, returning the smile.

"I know you didn't kill Lin," he said.

"It doesn't matter. I'll be in here for life anyway."

"But being known for killing one person instead of two is better," said Jay. "I can help you get out of-

"JAY!" Marly snapped. "I don't want to get out of here. I deserve this. I killed my stepfather!"

Jay didn't say anything. He just hung his head. "Alright," he finally said. "Bye."

"Goodbye," she said. Jay got up and left the prison.

-----

"Mr. Krabs?" Tom asked, walking into his hospital room.

"Yes?" he said weakly.

"Hi," he said, walking in and sitting down next to him. "How are you doing?"

"Meh," Mr. Krabs grunted. "There ain't one thing this ole' krab can't take!"

Tom smiled. "Er...what will happen to us? The Krusty Krab? It's in ashes!"

"Aye," said Mr. Krabs. "I don't know. It'll cost me millions to rebuild it! I already spent a bunch rebuilding after the Carly incident!"

"But...where else are we going to get jobs?" Tom asked.

"I'm sorry," Mr. Krabs said. "But I'm sure what I'm going to do."

-----

Jim and Squidward ventured back to the stack of ashes that was The Krusty Krab.

"You realize it'll take us almost a year or two to rebuild this thing by ourselves, right?" said Squidward.

"Yes," nodded Jim.

"And that it will cost us a lot of money?"

"Yes."

"I can't help you out with the money. I have no money as of now," Squidward said.

"Hmm," said Jim. "Alright, let's clear out this ash."

The two got their shovels and bags and started hauling the ash into the trash bags. They filled up about twenty trash bags before realizing they were out of the bags.

"I'll go to the market," said Squidward. He got into the boatmobile they arrived in and drove to the Bargain Mart.

------

Knock, knock, knock. Patrick Star knocked on the door of Spongebob Squarepant's door. The two had been best friends and they were now living next to each other after going their separate ways after college.

"Patrick!" gasped Spongebob, opening the door. "I can't believe you're here!"

"Yup," smiled Patrick. "I just moved here from Conch City!"

"YAY!" shouted Spongebob. "Wanna go get ice cream from Goofy Goobers?"

"SURE!" The two raced off, ecstatic to be reunited.

-------

Squidward arrived at the Bargain Mart and bought more bags. He then drove back to the ruins where Jim was waiting. They finished cleaning the ashes up when Marmaduke came running up.

"You guys!" he panted. "Marly escaped from prison! The cops are after all of us!"

[Ron]

Episode 40: The Krusty Krab Bids Marly Farewell! (short episode)

Marly only made it a mile into Bikini Bottom before the cops caught up with her. They brought her back to the prison.

"God," she muttered as she was thrown back into her cell. She knew she'd be in there for life. Two murders and an escape from prison.

-----

The Krusty Krab had been rebuilt. Jim and Squidward had given up and hired a company to rebuild. It was done in two days.

"Alright crew," said Mr. Krabs, standing in front of his crew. Tim, Tom, Jim, Squidward, Marmaduke, and Jay stood in front of him. "We need a replacement for-"

"I quit," said Jay. He threw his Krusty Krab hat on the ground and walked out the door.

"We need a replacement for Jay and Marly? Any ideas?"

"Hmm...Marina?"

"Marina?"

"That girl that used to work here but drove off because we broke into her store."

"I doubt she'll want to work here again," said Mr. Krabs.

"It's worth a shot."

The crew drove to Marina's house and asked her.

"Sure," she said. "I forgive you guys for what you did." She smiled and followed them back to The Krusty Krab.

"So what's happened since I left?" asked Marina. The crew eyed each other and explained the events. "But it's over now?"

"Yes," replied Tom. "It's over."

"Okay, good," said Marina. "Because I don't want to die working."

----

The next few days were quiet. Everyone was still coping from Marly but that didn't stop business. They were busy as ever. Apparently, people had been quite angry with their absence.

----

Patrick and Spongebob sat in front of the giant pineapple blowing bubbles just as Squidward walked up his driveway.

"Um...who are you?" he asked.

"Spongebob and Patrick!" they said together, beaming. "WE'RE YOUR NEIGHBORS!"

At that moment, Squidward knew his life was already tangled with Spongebob and Patrick's. Squidward ignored his response and walked into his house.

"I think he likes us," said Patrick.

Episode 41: Throw in the Towel!

"...Teenage...dream! The way you turn me on! I can't...sleep..so take a chance and don't ever look back, don't ever look back!"

"What are you singing, Marina?" It was around lunchtime and Marina was singing "Teenage Dream" by Fishy Perry. Jim was wondering why.

"It peps up the mood. It's so damn dull in here," said Marina, serving a customer.

"Yeah, I come here for food, not half assed singing," the grumpy customer said. He got up and left.

"MARINA!! DON'T MAKE ME CUSTOMERS LEAVE!" Mr. Krabs suddenly popped out of the floorboards.

"How the hell did you do that?!" said Jim.

"What the hell was that, Mr. Krabs?!" said Marina.

"Me new electric floorboards. Now ya see me," he said, sliding under. A layer of floorboard slid out. "Now ya don't." He then slid back up. "Now then...NO SINGING."

"But...I think we could really give customers entertainment if we did singing and dancing!" said Marina.

"No!" said Mr. Krabs. "And that's me final answer!"

"But you could charge extra money for dinner theater!" Marina cried.

"Fine, we'll do it. Get started immediately."

-----

"Everybody to their positions! Now, now!"

Marina stood by a light panel, controlling the stage lights. She peered out from behind the curtain and saw that customers were crowding around tables, eating Krabby Patties. She dimmed the lights...and the play started. Marmaduke stepped out.

"To be....or be to not...," he said. He then realized his mistake and started over. "Be to....or to not be." He then uttered a curse word. Marina circled her arms, signaling Go on! Then Squidward scampered out.

"Foolish mortal! I am to be!" Squidward then pulled out a fake gun and shot confetti at Marmaduke. He stepped backward.

"Dying I am," he said. He stumbled and fell off the stage. "OW DAMMIT!"

"Who else dare challenge me!?" said Squidward.

"Oh that's me!" Tim said from behind the curtain.

"No, that's me!" said Tom.

"Me!"

"ME!"

The two were then fighting. They rolled over the curtain. It fell, the rod hitting Squidward in the head. Jim then ran out and helped Squidward, who was unconscious.

"Oh god," said Marina, facepalming.

----

The wreckage from the play the previous night was still there the next morning.

"Our biggest blunder yet!" exclaimed Marmaduke. "I'm a terrible actor."

"No, we were just short on time. I didn't even know the plot of our play and I'm the director, writer, and producer!" said Marina.

"Lesson learned here is to not trust Marina," said Mr. Krabs.

"Yup," said Tom.

"Exactly," replied Tim.

"Yes," agreed Jim.

"You got that right," nodded Squidward.

"Sure thing," winked Marmaduke.

"Pssh!" said Marina. "That's the last time I hire you assholes in my play."

----

Just so you guys know, this is the length Years Before Spongebob will usually be. They won't be nearly as long as Down Under episodes.

[Ron]

Episode 42: Mexican Krusty Krab!

It was a sunny day in Bikini Bottom. Inside the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs sat in his office. He was examining a list of restaurants in Bikini Bottom and their profits. He discovered a restaurant, Tacos!, which was earning way more than The Krusty Krab.

"Look at this! Look at it!" Mr. Krabs roared, coming out.

"What now, Mr. Krabs?" Marina moaned. Mr. Krabs had been unusually grouchy the past week and Marina was getting annoyed.

"Tacos! is earning way more than us? WHY?" shouted Mr. Krabs.

"Maybe they like Mexican food better," said Jim. "I don't know."

"Hmm," grunted Mr. Krabs. "Come up with suggestions!" He stormed back into his office.

"Jeez!" sighed Tim. "How many times is he going to get angry like that?"

"I don't know," replied Tom. "So...suggestions?"

"Give this place a make over?" said Marina. "This place does need a fix-er-upper."

"But Mr. Krabs wants something Mexican related, right?" said Marmaduke.

"We give it a Mexican feel," said Jim.

"Mr. Krabs doesn't like spending money though. It'll cost loads to fix this place up," Marina reminded them.

"Well how else is he going to steal back customers? He has to spend money no matter what," said Marmaduke.

"Alright," everyone agreed.

TWO DAYS LATER

The Krusty Krab had gone Mexican. Mr. Krabs had agreed to the remodel, despite the cost. Mexican decorations hung everywhere. Marina had re-painted the Menu to make it look more Mexican.

"Now we wait for the customers to role it," Mr. Krabs said. He put a lawn chair beside the register.

TIME CARD: 2 Hours Later

The Krusty Krab was filled with customers. Marina, Tim, Tom, Marmaduke, and Jim bustled around, trying to serve all of the customers. But it was of no use. There was just to many. Outside, Tacos! executives were peering in.

"They stole our customers!" one executive exclaimed.

"We must steal them back," a fat cat said, clenching his fist.

"Fire?"

"No, we can get sued." The three executives thought for a second before entering the restaurant.

"Hey," one of the executives said to a customer. "Buy me a taco. Here's the money." The customers nodded and bought the executive the taco. The fat cat then rubbed the taco all over the ground and spit on it.

"HELLO!" he screamed. The restaurant was quiet. "LOOK WHAT YOU'RE-"

Suddenly, a little green plankton on a rope landed on the man's shoulder, he knocked the taco out his hands and started punching the fat cat. The fat cat fell through the window and sprinted away. Plankton then sprung away, not wanting to show his face.

----

The Krusty Crew just finished cleaning up the mess. They were back to their regular selves. Tacos! had gone out of business; Italian food was the new thing.

"Please don't tell me we're turning into an Italian bakery?" Marmaduke said.

"Nope," said Mr. Krabs. "We're going Chinese!"

"Oh god!"

[Ron]

Episode 43#: Marina's First Thanksgiving

It was Thanksgiving day in Bikini Bottom. Everyone was inside their houses, eating turkey and spending time with loved ones. Marina walked the streets of Bikini Bottom, sad and lonely. She eventually made her way to the vacant Krusty Krab. She opened the door and was instantly greeted by confetti, blow-horns, and other party instruments. Mr. Krab, Jim, Tim, Tom, and Marmaduke all face her, grins on their faces.

"Happy Thanksgiving, Marina!" they cried.

"Um...what is up?" she said awkwardly. "How come it's so desolate outside?"

"It's Thanksgiving! Everyone is eating," replied Tim.

"Thanks....giving?" Marina said. Everyone stared at her, incredulous.

"Thanksgiving," Jim said, nodding. "You don't know what Thanksgiving is? Black Friday?"

"No...," Marina said, feeling as if she should know what Thanksgiving was.

"It's the time in the year to give thanks for everything you have," Mr. Krabs said.

"You get to eat turkey, yams, pumpkin pie, stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy," Marmaduke said, rubbing his stomach and drooling.

"Sounds pretty good," nodded Marina. "I've heard of pumpkin pie."

"We're going to have a Thanksgiving feast here," Mr. Krabs said. "Join us, aight?"

"Sure!" Marina walked over to the table hidden behind the group. She sat down and started eating some stuffing.

"No, no, no," Mr. Krabs said, reaching over and brushing her hand off. "We must say grace first."

"Oh, I gotcha," Marina winked. They all sat down and held hands.

"Dear Neptune," Jim said. Marina then unhooked her hands from Marmaduke and Mr. Krabs, the two she was sitting in between, and shoved a pumpkin pie in her face. She gobbled and gobbled, munched and munched.

"Marina!" Mr. Krabs said. "The prayer isn't over yet!"

"OH, I gotcha," Marina winked. They resumed saying grace.

"Dear Neptune," Jim said. "Thank you for us all being gathered here today to eat such wonderful food Mr. Krabs bought from the market."

Marina opened her eye and eyed the turkey. She silently unhooked her hand with Marmaduke and started eating the turkey. Once she finished with that, Marmaduke opened his eyes and saw what Marly was doing. He attacked more food.

"...and in Neptune's name, ahmen." Everyone opened their eyes to discover Marmaduke and Marina eating the food.

"Oh jeez," facepalmed Squidward.

"This is why my mom didn't show me Thanksgiving," Marina said, bits of food spitting out. "I do this. I try to stay away from Thanksgiving but I just couldn't resist this time."

"Never have Thanksgiving with Marina, again, Mr. Krabs," Squidward said. "Seriously."

"Aye, Mr. Squidward," agreed Mr. Krabs, watching their Thanksgiving feast being eaten by his employee. "Well, I'm going to go by another feast."

"I'll come," Squidward volunteered. They drove to the Barg'n'Mart.

"Let's see," Mr. Krabs said, scanning the aisles. "Where's the Thanksgiving Dinner/Lunch/Breakfast/Brunch Deluxe?"

"Here," Squidward said, pointing to an enormous kit filled with turkey, jelly, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. "It's $503."

"WHAT?!" Mr. Krabs screeched. "IT WAS $10 YESTERDAY!"

"Oh," said Squidward.

"*dolphin noises* MARINA!!" Mr. Krabs screamed.

"Sir, we're going to have to ask you to leave the store," a bored looking cashier said, walking up.

"*dolphin noises*YOU," Mr. Krab fumed.

"Yeah," said the cashier. "I don't like your *dolphin noises* language."

"YEAH? *dolphin noises* I will *dolphin noises* up, so stop being a *dolphin noises, dolphin noises, dolphin noises* with soup while *dolphin noises, dolphin noises, dolphin noises, dolphin noises, dolphin noises* and Disneyland *dolphin noises*!"

"Come back tomorrow on Black Friday. The price will be down."

BLACK FRIDAY, THE NEXT DAY

The gang had Thanksgiving on Black Friday, enjoying the feast. Marina watched from outside, eating a drum stick from KFC.
