"ATTACK!" SpongeBob shouted.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!" everyone shouted.
Odie, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy and Mr Krabs all dove into the mess.
Garfield went over to SpongeBob's bowl.
"Okay, long story short," he said. "I'm sorry; here's your helmet thingy."
Garfield gave SpongeBob a water helmet (or Jon's contact lens).
"Thanks!" said SpongeBob.
He put the helmet on and dove into the crowd.
Garfield watched as the wreck ensued.
Then he glanced at the millions of piles of Krabby Patties lying everywhere.
"Might as well destroy the witnesses," he said.
He licked his lips and dove into the first pile.
Sandy jumped up onto the paper shredder and started throwing all the research down it.
"Stop!" shouted an employee.
He ran to grab Sandy, but all of a sudden, Mr Krabs was on him.
"Catch me if ye can, ye smelly land-lubber!" he shouted.
And he pinched this guy's nose.
Ever been pinched on the nose by a crab?
"YEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW!" he screamed.
Patrick ran up to Odie.
Odie picked him up and tossed him into the air.
Then Odie used his tongue to bat Patrick across the room.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGGH!" Patrick screamed.
Patrick landed SPLAT in the face of a man carrying papers, and knocked him to the ground.
When he recovered, he saw a chubby pink starfish staring at him.
"Hi," said Patrick dopily. "Here for the party?"
The man passed out.
SpongeBob and Sandy found themselves cornered by a bunch of scientists.
They both got sly grins.
"You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?" asked Sandy.
"Kara-tay?" asked SpongeBob.
"You betcha!"
Suddenly, SpongeBob and Sandy were wearing their karate gear, and were immediately flying through the air.
"HHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOIIIIII!" shouted SpongeBob.
"HEEEEEYYYY-YAH!" crowed Sandy.
It was a mess as everyone went down screaming.
"MAD SPONGE! MAD SQUIRREL!" they hollered.
"Take this!" said SpongeBob, punching a guy's tooth out.
"Take that!" said Sandy, tripping somebody else.
"And all of ya, take this!" they shouted.
And they punched everyone else to the ground.
What was Squidward doing during all this?
He was hiding amongst the computers. He wasn't in the mood to attack.
Odie jumped over the computer Squidward was behind, and took a man down, causing a computer to crash to the floor.
Then Mr Krabs cut some cables with his claws.
Patrick spilled a glass of water on a keyboard, causing the computer to flicker, and then shut down.
Garfield watched this all while eating Krabby Patties and simply being a lazy cat.
Then he noticed Squidward hiding behind the computer next to him.
Garfield got a devious grin.
He extended a claw and poked Squidward on the butt.
"YEEEEEEEE-OOOOOOOOWWWW!" shrieked Squidward, who went sailing through the air and landing someone's face.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHH!" the scientist screamed. "SLIMY! SQUISHY! EW! EW!"
He tripped over a cord (bringing down a computer and a fax machine) and Squidward went sailing into the water cooler.
SPLASH!
"Everybody's a critic," Squidward muttered.
SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr Krabs, Sandy and Odie stood in the middle of the room, observing the damage they'd made.
"What happened?" asked Patrick.
"I think we did it!" said MR Krabs.
SpongeBob observed.
Hmmm…
Every single piece of paper was shredded.
Garfield had nearly eaten everything.
All the computers were destroyed.
Everyone was unconscious.
"Yeah, we're good," he said.
"Nice!" shouted Squidward. "NOW GET ME OUT OF HERE!"
"On the contrary, Mr Squidward," said Mr Krabs. "We'll be joining you!"
At once, SpongeBob, Patrick and Mr Krabs dove into the water cooler.
Sandy got her diving suit back on, and got in with them.
"Let's go!" said Garfield.
Odie grabbed the water cooler, and followed Garfield out of the room.
Garfield and Odie ran to the airport, still carrying the cooler.
Everyone was bouncing around inside of it.
"SLOW DOWN!" shouted Squidward.
Suddenly, Patrick landed on his head.
"Hi, Squidward!" he said.
Then Patrick flew off, leaving Squidward with a flat head.
"PLEASE SLOW DOWN!" pleaded Squidward.
Garfield and Odie dove inside and started to search for some carriers.
"Okay," said Garfield. "Despite my better judgment, we need some pet carriers so we can travel to California and drop you off," said Garfield.
"Bark!" said Odie.
Garfield looked around and saw the flight schedule.
"There's a flight for San Diego in fifteen minutes!" he said. "Run, Odie! Run!"
Garfield and Odie jumped into a pet carrier.
Garfield ripped a tag off another suitcase, and placed it on the carrier.
Someone picked up the carrier and placed it on the conveyor belt.
They slid all over the place on various ramps.
"WHEEEEEE!" cheered SpongeBob, Patrick and Odie.
"YEEE-HAW!" whooped Sandy.
"THAR SHE BLOWS!" shouted Mr Krabs.
"MOMMY!" screamed Garfield and Squidward.
Finally, the carrier was tossed into the plan.
And I mean really tossed.
CRASH!
"Ow!" yelled Garfield. "Gentle! We've got passengers!"
"Where are we?" asked Squidward.
Patrick looked around the luggage storage.
"It's a corrugated jungle!" he exclaimed. "Hand me my machete, SpongeBob."
SpongeBob stared at him.
"Uh, Patrick, you don't have a machete," he said.
"I don't?"
"No. In fact, you're not even allowed to touch sharp objects anymore."
"Tarter sauce," muttered Patrick.
After a five hour flight, they were released from the plane, and Garfield and Odie got on a bus for the beach.
SpongeBob looked out the window.
"Palm trees! We're nearly home now!" he said happily.
"Good," said Garfield. "Can't wait to get rid of you and your mouth."
"On second thought, maybe I'll stay," said Squidward.
"Oh no," said Garfield. "I don't need anymore of you guys in my house."
The bus pulled up to the beach, and Garfield and Odie took the others to a speed boat.
"Get in," said Garfield.
"Arf!" said Odie, who obeyed.
They put on their lifejackets and started the boat up.
"Off we go!"
The boat pulled away from the dock.
The man who owned the boat yelled as they pulled away.
Finally, the boat arrived at the familiar green island named Bikini Atoll.
"Here we are!" cried SpongeBob. "Bikini Bottom's directly bellow."
"Open it up, boy," said Garfield.
"Bark!"
Odie opened the top on the water cooler and prepared to pour it.
"Wait!" said SpongeBob.
SpongeBob jumped out of the cooler and hugged Odie's nose.
"Thanks for your help, Odie," he said.
Odie smiled and gave SpongeBob a big wet lick.
SLURRRRP!
"See around, boy."
SpongeBob then turned to Garfield.
There was a long awkward pause.
"Um, thanks for the ride," SpongeBob muttered.
"And thanks for the food," said Garfield.
"CAN WE HURRY THIS UP!" demanded Squidward.
"All right, all right. Beam them down, Odie," Garfield ordered.
"Bark."
Odie waved goodbye one last time, and let the water in the cooler pour.
"WATER SLIDE!" cheered Patrick.
Everyone slid down and tumbled back to Bikini Bottom.
SPLOOSH!
Garfield and Odie watched them float away.
"Finally!" groaned Garfield. "I hope I never see or hear from another sponge in my entire life."
Odie nodded, and then steered the boat back to shore.
Back in Bikini Bottom, SpongeBob, Patrick, Sandy, Squidward and Mr Krabs landed on the ocean floor.
"HOME!" cheered SpongeBob, running over to his pineapple house. "Oh, pineapple house! I'm back! We can resume our lives together right now!"
Squidward let out weary sigh.
"Home at last," he muttered. "I'm going to do some serious sleeping."
And with that, he stalked back to his Easter Island house.
"Well, I gotta get home too," said Sandy. "I could use a bit of shuteye."
Sandy turned and went home to her tree dome.
Mr Krabs pat SpongeBob on the shoulder.
"Good job, me boy," he said. "The formula's safe and sound."
"No problem, Mr Krabs," said SpongeBob. "Just one question: what was wrong with everyone on the surface world finding out the Krabby Patty formula? They hardly affect us."
Krabs shrugged.
"I dunno. I just like to keep it secret. Life would be pretty dull without that secret, eh, me boy?"
"Yeah," said SpongeBob. "Maybe too exciting."
"Well, see ya at work tomorrow, SpongeBob," said Krabs, and he skittered away for home.
"Hey, SpongeBob!" said Patrick. "What do now?"
"Gee, I dunno," said SpongeBob. "Nap?"
"Hey, I just realized that that's exactly what I was doing before all this started!"
And Patrick hustled over to his rock and dove underneath it to snore his life away.
SpongeBob sighed and entered his house.
"Gary! I'm home!" he shouted. "And I don't plan on leaving for a long time!"
"Meow!" said Gary.
Back at the Arbuckle household, Garfield and Odie were limping home.
"Finally," Garfield sighed. "Home sweet home."
"Woof," said Odie wearily.
They entered the house and saw Jon sitting at the TV.
"Did you guys here?" he asked. "The Krabby Patty recipe is lost! No one can make Krabby Patties without it!"
"Good!" said Garfield. "No more Krabby Patties for me. From now on, it's just regular burgers for yours truly."
And Garfield and Odie approached Garfield's little bed.
"Phew," he sighed. "Well, Odie, it seems as though you've saved the day."
Odie grinned proudly.
"Yeah, by saving a burger recipe that had intoxicated all of the state."
Odie nodded.
"And I guess I should admit that it was my fault."
Odie nodded again.
"But I won't, because I've decided to go into denial about this whole situation."
Odie stared at him.
"Yep, I've decided that this never happened. We never ate Krabby Patties, I didn't meet SpongeBob, and I didn't spend ten hours in a plane in a carrier with you just to take him and his little pals back to Bikini Bottom, which, as far as I'm concerned, doesn't exist."
Odie shrugged.
"Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to sleep."
Odie nodded and left to sleep on Jon's bed.
Garfield pulled his blue blanket over him, snuggled up to Pooky, and shut his eyes.
Unfortunately, SpongeBob's laughter was stuck in his brain.
So for the entire night, he heard "Dah, ha, ha, ha!" being chanted all through the night.
It would be a long night.
