"I'm ready! I'm ready!" cried Spongebob as he ran alongside his best friend Patrick. He knew that somehow, Pat would become as devoted as he was to finding the stolen wallet. Nothing could stop them now, except…..
"Ice cream!" screamed Patrick. "Ooh! I want some. Can we get some, Spongebob? Please? I'll never ask for anything else, ever again! I promise."
Of course Spongebob knew that Pat's promise wouldn't last for long. As soon as they reached a chocolate machine, Patrick would want some. When they reached a soda machine, Pat would want some. And when they passed the Krusty Krab, Patrick would want one. They would go in, pat would take forever to order, then he would eat, and the journey would begin again.
"Oh, all right Pat. Let's get some ice cream. This is the only stop we're going to make until lunch, so get what you want, but hurry up."
"Okay Spongebob," said Patrick, "I'll hurry. Um, hi. Can I get a ten scoop mint chip waffle cone with three cherries, a chocolate dip, and rainbow sprinkles? Don't forget the cookie crumbs! Thanks!"
Surprisingly, Patrick ate rather quickly, so the journey was up and running within twenty minutes. The two friends walked side by side, hoping the police would recognize Spongebob's thief description and give them some information. Pat and Spongebob turned the corner only to find themselves face to face with Bubblebass!
