In the kitchen at the burger joint, Lumpy was worried as he felt his nose twitching constantly.
"Oh, my, not again..." he begged as he rubbed his nose with his hand.
"Not again what?" SpongeBob asked.
"I think my allergies are getting-" Lumpy was cut off by his hitching breath.
Three inhales later, he sneezed right onto SpongeBob, spinning him around for a few seconds. SpongeBob then regained his balance, shaking his head as he did so.
"Wow, even my sneezes aren't that strong!"
"Sorry. I can't help it." Lumpy rubbed his nose with his forefinger as it continued to itch. "I'm probably gonna be like this for a while..."
"Oh, that's okay. At least allergies aren't contagious."
Lumpy then proceeded to sneeze again, twice. It was so loud that a couple of items on the shelves came falling down, but none of them were broken. Then he was about to sneeze again, but SpongeBob covered his nose with his hands to stop him from doing so. That didn't work, and Lumpy let out another sneeze that sent SpongeBob flying into the wall. He slid down to the floor, rubbing his head in pain. Lumpy put his forefinger under his nose in embarrassment.
"Where's my burger and fries?! I'm hungry here!" King Dedede complained as he sat and pounded at his table.
"I feel like I haven't eaten since last night's dinner!" Escargoon added as he was also waiting for his lunch.
"I'm afraid we're having some 'tetchanical' difficulties," Kate said. Kate was a waitress who was working part-time at the burger joint, and Kit was a waiter working alongside her.
"But we'll have them ready as soon as possible, we promise," Kit added.
Back in the kitchen, Lumpy inhaled several times as he was going to sneeze, but SpongeBob again covered his nose to stop him. This time, however, he pinched Lumpy's nose shut so that he wouldn't sneeze. Kit and Kate came walking into the kitchen.
"SpongeBob, is Mr. King Dedede and Mr. Escargoon's food ready yet?" Kate asked.
"Oh, I'm sorry, kids, but I've been so distracted by Lumpy's sneezing problem that I haven't even started cooking yet!" SpongeBob said.
Lumpy pulled SpongeBob's hands away and sneezed right at Kit and Kate's faces, blowing them to the floor.
"I think I need to leave..." Lumpy rubbed his nose with his forefinger as he walked out of the kitchen through the back door.
"If he knew he was gonna sneeze that much, maybe he shouldn't have come in the first place," SpongeBob thought to himself as he finally started cooking the burgers and fries for Dedede and Escargoon.
"I hope we don't catch Lumpy's allergies," Kit said as he cleaned himself and Kate off.
"He needs to learn how to keep his sneezes to himself," said Kate.
