Chapter 3 – Fire Dept. and Police
The next day, Squidward somehow pulled the second Krusty Krab from the making of his Krusty Krab commercial to where the old Krusty Krab was, making business prosper again, and raising Squidward's paycheck by ten cents.
"Oh Spongebob, this Krusty Krab is emptier without you," said Mr. Krabs before walking in the spare Krusty Krab.
Meanwhile, Spongebob looked in the newspaper for a new job while having Kelpo, but then he noticed something.
"Hey Gary, is this Kelpo for the Cheap?" asked Spongebob.
"Meow, meow, meow? Meow!" replied Gary.
"What do you mean we don't have a lot of money, so we have to be cheap? In fact, I found a job right now!" said Spongebob as he left the house.
"Where can I go?" asked Spongebob.
So he walked to somewhere, where he saw another place where he could have a job, the fire department! Inside, he met the firefighters, and began asking them for a job.
"Uh, can I have a job?" asked Spongebob.
"Do you have any firefighting skills?" asked the firefighter who seemed to be in charge.
"Uh, no," replied Spongebob, "But I used to work for the Krusty Krab."
"Perfect! You can be our cook! You will make chili for us," said the firefighter.
"Okay!" said Spongebob as the firefighters left to put out a fire, "How do I make chili?"
From experiences from his life, he was able to start making the chili. However, he needed an ingredient, so he looked in the kitchen cabinet, and saw a small bottle of nitroglycerine. On the bottle was a label that said "DANGER", but Spongebob didn't notice.
"What's nee-tro-glie-ker-ien?" wondered Spongebob as he read the label on the bottle, "Should I put this in chili? I know! I'll ask a cooking expert!"
So Spongebob went to a phone and dialed a number. Patrick, in his rock, answered the phone.
"Hey Patrick!" began Spongebob.
"Oh Spongebob, glad you called. I'm making this chili for my cousin Mel who's coming and I just got this nee-tro-glie-ker-ien and I'm wondering, should I put this in the chili?" asked Patrick.
"Hey! I need to know if you need to put the nee-tro-glie-ker-ien in the chili for the firefighters in the fire department! Besides, you don't have a cousin named Mel!" argued Spongebob.
"Hey! I asked first! And don't you work for the Krusty Krab?" asked Patrick.
Seeing it was useless to argue back, or even continue the conversation, Spongebob hung up. So taking his chances, Spongebob put a drop of nitroglycerine in the chili, and…
BOOM!
Spongebob ran out of the burning fire department when the firefighters returned.
"Spongebob Squarepants, what did you do? Did you destroy the chili?" asked the firefighter who seemed to be in charge.
"Uh, well, I set the fire department on fire while making chili for the fire fighters. Get it? Get the joke? I set the fire department on fire while making chili for the fire fighters!" said Spongebob while laughing, nervously.
"You're fired," said the fire fighter.
"Oh! Good one! I got fired for setting the fire department on fire while making chili for the fire fighters! I think that might be a pun or..." began Spongebob when he saw the firefighter glaring at him, angrily, "I think I'll go find another job now."
Then Spongebob ran off.
"Actually, I find that joke pretty funny," admitted the firefighter as the burning fire department collapsed.
Spongebob was walking down a road, looking for a job.
"Jeez, this isn't working well. I've been rejected from a lot of jobs in these days. What's wrong with me?" wondered Spongebob when he saw something.
The police department, where there was a Help Wanted (Need Cooks) sign, so Spongebob dashed into the police department.
"Can I be a cook?" asked Spongebob.
"Okay, it's lunch shift anyway, so make the chili before the prisoners eat their handcuffs, and we don't want that to happen again, right Officer, uh, what's your name?" asked Officer Nancy.
"It's Gregor! Anyway, go to the kitchen, cook!" ordered Gregor.
So Spongebob made the nitroglycerine-less chili. However, he used Volcano Sauce to make his chili. When the prisoners were eating their chili, they learned thechili with Volcano Sauce was hot enough to burn metal, so the prisoners used the chili to break through their metal restraints, and metal door. Then the prisoners encountered Gregor.
"Hey! Get back in the kitchen!" ordered Gregor.
Then one of the prisoners threw chili at Gregor's eyes.
"AAA! My eyes!" screamed Gregor, covering his eyes in pain as the prisoners ran away.
Spongebob decided to walk away when Officer Nancy grabbed his hand and dragged him into a cell.
"I'm sure you'll enjoy the job of a prisoner," said Officer Nancy as she slammed the metal door.
Will Spongebob get a new job? Will Spongebob get out of jail? Will the prisoners be caught? Will Patrick make the chili for his cousin Mel? Stay tuned to find out!
