The Room: Spongebob Edition Chapter 5: The Most Fail Endurance Challenge Ever, a spongebob squarepants fanfic

Note: I don't own these characters, except for Jimmyfish, Jennyfish, and Ghost.

Note 2: I've recently discovered that there's a show that's actually really similar to this, called Big Brother. I hadn't heard anything about it until yesterday, so this is still totally different (I think).

THE ROOM

Previously, on The Room, a memory challenge followed by a quiz stumped the players, giving the failing Patrick one extra vote against him in the next elimination. Jennyfish, through a random table-standing challenge, won the ability to vote twice, but this did not save her from elimination. She was the next one voted off. Five remain- which one will be the last one to stay in… The Room?

"Welcome back to… The Room!" said Perch. "Let's have an inside look at what the roommates do in their free time…"

"So, how do you think they get the oranges to make the dye in crayons?" said Patrick.

"Are you serious?" said Sandy.

"They don't use actual oranges," said Jimmyfish.

"Yes they do," Patrick replied. "They squeeze it into the mold thing and then add something and cool it and it hardens."

"Patrick, it's just wax with dye," said Spongebob.

" ," said Ghost.

"Wha… no! No! They use orange juice with the wax and stuff!"

"No, orange juice is yellow," said Sandy.

"No! They'd call it yellow juice!"

"Why would someone waste perfectly good oranges on crayons when they could just eat them?" said Spongebob.

"True," said Patrick, nodding.

"Well, they all seem to be having fun," said Perch. "So I'm gonna go mess with them!"

Perch was soon seen to enter the room. "Hello contestants!" he said, cheerily.

"Hey Perch," they all said, monotonously.

"Come on! Can't you show a little bit more enthusiasm?" Perch asked.

"We've been in here for like a week," said Jimmyfish. "And there is nothing to do. Literally."

"Well, you guys just aren't imaginative enough. Have you even seen Big Brother? Them people are all in a house together for like three months," said Perch.

"What are you talking about Perch?" said Sandy.

"Go away, none of us want to do the challenge," said Spongebob.

" , ," said Ghost.

"What? I… fine. I'll go… wait, no! I'm the host! I get to decide when you do the challenges!" Perch shouted, startling the contestants.

"Perch, take a relax pill," said Jimmyfish.

"Come on. We're going outside for your next challenge," said Perch. The contestants collectively groaned.

"Will this ever end?" said Sandy.

"I'm tired of this," said Patrick.

"Who needs a million sand dollars anyway?" said Spongebob.

"We should all just like quit," said Jimmyfish.

" ," said Ghost.

"None of you will be quitting! You're already outside of the room, and…" Perch began. Since the contestants were all outside of the building, they walked away from Perch and down the road. "THIS MEANS THAT NONE OF YOU GET THE MOTHER LOAD OF MONEY!"

This caused all five to stop in their tracks. "Wha?" they all said, rotating in perfect synchronization.

"Don't you want buckets full of money?" Perch asked. All five instantaneously arrived next to Perch.

"WHAT DO WE DO?" they shouted.

"Let me explain…" Perch said. He began to tell them about all the rules of The Room, and then told them of their next challenge. "This is your first and consequentially only endurance challenge. See these five ropes, hanging from the tall tree? See the small platforms on them? You'll have to hold onto the rope to keep yourself from falling off of them. If you let go, you've fallen off and lost. If you're the last one standing, you'll win the ability to vote twice next time, alright?"

"Yeah! Let's start!" said Spongebob

"Wait… there's one more thing." Perch reached behind his back, pulling out three small folders. "Here, we have folder number one, folder number two, and folder number three. The first one to fall will pick one of these folders, as will the second and third. In one of the folders is a gold star. That person will be immune from votes," he explained.

"Yes!" said Patrick.

"One folder has a silver star. That person will get to pick one other contestant, who will get to vote twice. And the last one has a green sick face, which means that the receiver will have to choose between not getting to vote or having one extra vote against them," Perch finished.

"That's deep," said Spongebob.

"I know. Now, lower the platforms!" Perch commanded. The five platforms lowered to levels where the five contestants could sit on them. "Now grab your ropes." They all obeyed. "Are you ready contestants?" he asked. There were a few casual nods. "Ready… UP!" Perch shouted, and the ropes pulled the platforms up, five feet off the ground.

"This is a bit anti-climactic," said Sandy.

"Well, we don't want to have to worry about liability if you fall, because you won't get hurt," Perch said.

" , ," said Ghost.

"Exactly," Perch said.

TIME PASSED… 5 MINUTES

"Ugh, I can't do this!" said Spongebob, barely hanging on. Suddenly, his arms popped off. "DEEEK!" he shouted as he hit the ground.

"Spongebob, come pick a folder," said Perch. Spongebob's arms regenerated, and he walked over to Perch, who held out the aforementioned folders.

"I think I'll go with folder number two," Spongebob said. Perch slowly opened it.

"Spongebob… you got the sick face," said Perch.

"UGH!" Spongebob said, crazily unhappy.

"Well, would you rather not vote or have one vote against you?" Perch asked.

"…Eh, I'll go with one against," Spongebob said.

"Alright, sit over here while you wait to watch everyone else fail," Perch said, pointing to a nearby, soft, cozy chair.

"It feels like heaven," Spongebob said to himself, instantly falling asleep.

… 20 MINUTES

"S-k-r-oo this!" said Jimmyfish. He dropped from the platform, floating over to Perch. "Can I take folder three?" he said. Perch opened it…

"You got the silver star," Perch replied. "Who do you want to have two votes?"

"I choose… Ghost," Jimmyfish said.

" ?" Ghost asked, losing his grip. " !" He plunged to the earth.

"Not to worry, Ghost, you're now immune to votes this next time!" Perch said.

" !" Ghost cheered.

"But now, we have to discover… who will get two votes, and who will let go and get nothing at all whatsoever?" Perch said. "It'll be Patrick. He's gonna lose.

Patrick let go and walked over to Perch. "I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" he said.

"Ugh!" said the others, face-palming.

"You know what? I'm gonna stay here, in the room, with you all," Perch said.

"Why, may I ask?" said Jimmyfish, sarcastically.

"BeCAUSE YOU all have your VOTE now!" Perch said. He turned on the projector that was used in the last vote, and the screen slowly lit up.

Spongebob- One Vote Against

Patrick- No Special Effect

Sandy- Two Votes

Jimmyfish- No Special Effect

Ghost- Immune, Two Votes

"Is Ghost ever going to lose an immunity challenge?" said Patrick. Ghost shook his head.

"Well, take your slips. Sandy, Ghost, take two," said Perch, handing out the papers. After a stressful minute long period, Perch entered the data into the computer program.

Ghost…

Ghost- 0 Votes

" ," said Ghost.

Spongebob…

Spongebob- 3 Votes

"Gack!" Spongebob yelped.

Patrick…

Patrick- 1 Vote

"Yuss!" Patrick shouted.

"This is it. Sandy, or Jimmyfish?" Perch said.

Jimmyfish…

Jimmyfish- 4 Votes

Sandy- 0 Votes

"YES! THANK YOU!" Spongebob cheered.

"Awesome!" said Sandy.

"NOOOOOOO!" said Jimmyfish.

"Well, Jimmyfish, it looks like you won't be getting any money for your stay in… the Room," said Perch, as Jimmyfish dejectedly left the room.

"Good luck, you guys," he said, quickly floating away.

"Well, we're down to the final four! This is, like, one away from the final three!" said Perch. "Please join us next time on… the Room!"
