(Spongebob walks with Patrick)
Patrick: So, are you gonna join the army?

Patrick: Well, i heard the army gives a lot of money.
Spongebob: I'll think about it.
Patrick: Okay, but first let's grab some ice cream.

(Spongebob and Patrick are in training)
Drill Sergeant: Alright, we will do an obstacle course. Whoever doesn't want to can pack his bags and go home.

Spongebob: Damn, this was harder than i thought.
Patrick: You can say that again.
