It was a magnificent morning and Maria was just waking up.

Maria: (Yawns) Good morning, Horsea.

Horsea: Good morning Maria.

Maria: Lets go down to the kitchen and get you something to eat.

Maria picked up Horsea and they went down to the kitchen.

Lily: (Offscreen) I can't believe that Krabs did this to me!

Maria: Uh oh.

Me: (Offscreen) I just can't believe he almost pulled it off.

Maria opened the backyard door and she and Horsea found me and Lana scrubbing Lily in a washtub full of tomato juice.

Me: But the real question is how did he get a skunk down to the bottom of the sea in an attempt to get the Krabby Patty Secret Formula?

Lily: That's what really has me stumped. Krabs is now as smart as Plankton but twice as dumb.

Lana: That nudist Krabs is a clever freak.

Maria came over.

Maria: What happened to you Lily?

Lily: I got sprayed by a skunk Krabs brought in while defending the Krabby Patty Secret Formula. Now I know how Leni felt.

Maria: How can Krabs get a skunk down to the sea?

Lily: That's what really stupefies me.

Maria: What happened?

Lily: It all started yesterday.

FLASHBACK

The Flashback opens with the fist falling off the roof of a restaurant called the Crusty Crabnet. The Crusty Crabnet was the worst restaurant in Bikini Bottom and it serves the most disgusting food in all of the 7 seas. It took the place of the Chum Bucket. Krabs walks out on the roof and appears to be covering something in his wagon with an old rag.

Krabs: I'm ready, I'm ready! Ready to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula! Prepare to initiate plan number... hmmm... number. What's the number? Oh well. Who cares?

Krabs pushed the wagon and went down the ramp and went to the Krusty Krab.

Krabs: That formula will be mine!

[Krabs pushes the wagon across the street and into front doors of the Krusty Krab.]

Krabs: [driving through the customers] Out of my way, meatheads! Move it, move it, move it! [rings the bell at Karen's cash register] Hey there, snazola! I have a present for you all. Say hello to... Mr. Stinky!

[Krabs takes of the rag and reveals a skunk named Mr. Stinky. The customers think Mr. Stinky is a cat and look at it in awe.]

Krabs was waiting outside.

Krabs: That's right, everyone. Gather in real close. [pulls out remote] Time to trigger the stench! [pushes button] Yoink!

Lily: What's everyone looking at?

Pearl: That cute kitty that Krabs brought in.

Lily saw the skunk and gasped in sheer horror.

Lily: That's not a cat! THAT'S A SKUNK!

Pearl: What's a Skunk?

Lily: The stinkiest animal in the world! They smell so horrible that it'll make your stomach turn inside out!

[The siren on Mr. Stinky's helmet lights up and the helmet lets in a bumble bee. Mr. Stinky gets really scared and then Lily jumped in front of Mr. Stinky's behind as he sprays fumes of his horrible smell all over Lily and the Krusty Krab. The customers including Squidward and Pearl couldn't take the smell and ran out of the restaurant. The fumes went into the kitchen where Lily's Shadow Clone was flipping Krabby Patties.]

Lily: Huh? [tries to wave away the fumes with her spatula] No, no, no, no, no, no!

[The Krabby Patties get engulfed with the fumes.]

Lily: Not the patties! I'll save you!

[Lily's clone inhales the fumes with her nose. But because the stench smelled so terrible, it teared up and vanished in a puff of smoke. SpongeBob, disturbed by the noise, comes out of his office.]

SpongeBob: What's all the racket out here?

[SpongeBob sniffs the air. But when he smelled the skunk fumes, his eyes turned green and popped like balloons. The customers continue to panic outside as the HAZMAT Unit condemns the restaurant so they can rid the horrible smell. SpongeBob and Lily run out with fumes all over them. A firefighter sprays the fumes off of them with a hose. But Lily still smells horrible.]

Lily: Mr. SquarePants, are you alright? What happened?

SpongeBob: I don't know. My eyes were burning! All I saw was a red body and a pair of pinchers... [pauses] Krabs! [Lily gasps] He's still in there! Alone! With the secret formula! He could be doing anything with it! [grabs Lily] He could be reading it!

Lily: Not if I have anything to say about it Mr. SquarePants!

Lily pulled out a noseplug and put it on her nose.

Lily: (Nasally) Ok, I'm going in!

SpongeBob: Good luck, Lily!

[Lily walks back into the restaurant and, using her hand, waves some of the fumes away for her to see where she's going. Mr. Stinky eats the bumble bee and didn't notice Lily sneaking past him. Lily makes it to SpongeBob's office and sees Krabs planting dynamite sticks around the safe.]

Lily: You overgrown sack of meat!

Krabs: I hope you like percussion, Lily. Because these drumsticks really go bongo you stupid girl! [laughs]

[Krabs went away from the safe and ignites the dynamite sticks with a battery on SpongeBob's desk, creating a loud explosion. Lily shields herself. As the smoke clears, the safe opens. But much to Krabs' chargin, there is another safe inside.]

Krabs: What? The old safe in the safe routine?

[Lily grabs Krabs and pins him to the wall.]

Lily: Here's another routine! You're the meat in my knuckle sandwich!

Krabs: I'm not hungry!

[Lily pulverizes Krabs all over the place with a ferocious flurry of fisticuffs until he was a splattered mess all over the wall.]

Lily: Eww. [Throws away claw] Mr. SquarePants!

[SpongeBob comes in with his right arm on the spot where his nose is.]

SpongeBob: Great job Lily. I see the problem.

[SpongeBob regrows his right arm. He and Lily use a pizza spatula to scoop Krabs off of the wall. SpongeBob opens the window and he and Lily fling Krabs out with their spatulas. Meanwhile, the HAZMAT Unit takes Mr. Stinky out of the restaurant, puts him in a basket tied with balloons, and lets him float back up to the surface. However, the wind blows the balloons and makes the basket go the other direction. The basket floats into Bikini Bottom where Mr. Stinky sprays his fumes once more. The Bikini Bottomites frantically scream and run around as the horrible smell drives them crazy. Back in the restaurant, Lily blows the fumes out with a fan.]

Lily: Whew! That was close.

SpongeBob: Whew! That was too close Lily. Great job. Three more safes and he would've had the secret formula.

[SpongeBob unlocks the second safe.]

SpongeBob: Looks like I'm gonna have to beef up security around here.

Lily: How are you gonna do that Mr. SquarePants?

[SpongeBob pushes the buttons on the third safe and opens up, revealing a steel container inside. SpongeBob takes it out and puts it on his desk.]

SpongeBob: I'm gonna need you to do me a big favor Lily.

Lily: What is it sir?

[SpongeBob pushes the buttons on the container and it opens up, revealing the bottle with the secret formula inside.]

SpongeBob: [gives Lily the bottle] Take this home with ya and hide it while I reevaluate my security situation. I'm actually gonna have Krabs think it's at my house.

Lily takes the bottle and winks at SpongeBob.

Lily: Yes sir Mr. SquarePants. But how do you know it will be safe from Krabs at your house?

SpongeBob: Oh I know Krabs is as stupid as Plankton is. He'll think it's still here! His tiny brain is incapable of the kind of abstract thinking that is required for reflection. Or thoughtful reasoning and deduction. He cannot ruminate.

[As SpongeBob talks to Lily, the claw Krabs lost was recording everything and Krabs was listening from outside.]

SpongeBob: [voiceover] He cannot define the hypothesis. He's a tired clown. He'll never know it's in my house!

Krabs: [gets an idea] Oh, you're right, Professor Sponge Cake! I'm much too simple-minded to look there! [laughs]

FLASHBACK ENDS

Lily: I put the Krabby Patty Formula Bottle in the safe after I got home. Now here I am in a washtub full of tomato juice.

Me: That's really clever. He'll be sent on a wild goose chase.

Lana: That is very clever sis.

Maria: It sure is. But I think we need to defend the Krabby Patty Formula as well.

Me: That's a good idea. You better head down to SpongeBob's house and get to helping him.

Maria: Good idea. Horsea, do you want to come with me to visit SpongeBob?

Horsea: Sure.

Maria and Horsea ate breakfast and they headed down to Bikini Bottom.


French Narrator: (French Accent) In the bottom of the sea.


SpongeBob was having breakfast and his doorbell rang. He went to the door and answered it.

SpongeBob: Oh hey Maria.

Maria: Hey, Spongebob. I hope you don't mind me and Horsea being here to defend the formula?

Maria winked at SpongeBob because Lily told her.

SpongeBob: Sure Maria.

Maria: Thanks.

SpongeBob: Now remember, Gary. I'm entrusting you and Maria with the secret formula.

Gary: Meow.

Maria: You got it SpongeBob! (Salutes)

Horsea: You can count on us sir.

Spongebob: Gary, you be good to Maria and Horsea while I'm gone.

Gary: Meow.

SpongeBob: Stay sharp, Gary. Don't let anyone inside.

Gary: Meow.

Maria: Yes sir!

SpongeBob: Bye, Gary! Bye Maria! Bye Horsea.

[Krabs is behind a rock, watching SpongeBob, Maria, Horsea and Gary.

Krabs: Oh man. I didn't expect Maria and Horsea to be with SpongeBob. Oh well. I'll stick with my original plan.

[He sees SpongeBob leave his home to work at the Krusty Krab. Krabs laughs and comes up with a plan. Inside SpongeBob's house, Gary, Maria and Horsea guards the door until they hears a knock.]

Gary: Meow.

Maria: I have a feeling I know who that is.

[Gary answers the door and they sees Krabs in the disguise as a salesman. Krabs gently pets Gary, but Gary growls angrily at him.]

Krabs: Why, hey there, little fella! Is SpongeBob.. [clears throat] I mean your master at home? Eh, perhaps I could just come inside for a minute and demonstrate our fine snail products.

[Krabs opens his case and shows snail care products.]

Krabs: Shell polish, slime deodorant, chew toys...

Gary: Meow!

Maria: Hi-YAH! [Maria kicks Krabs in the stomach and sends him flying and she slams the door.] Nice try Krab-cakes.

Gary meow laughs.

French Narrator: Moments later...

[Maria, Horsea and Gary are seen reading the paper on SpongeBob's couch, until they hears the doorbell ringing.]

Gary: Meow?

Horsea: That's probably Krabs again.

[Gary answers the door and they see Krabs disguise as a girl scout selling cookies.]

Krabs: Hello, good people! I'm selling Sweetie Patrol cookies! We have a lovely assortment of fungi and algae flavors. [holds out a list.] How many delicious boxes can I put you down for? If you order ten boxes, I'll qualify for my bottom-dweller badge. If you order a hundred boxes, I'll get my bling-bling badge. You know, you should hide these from your roommate. She'll eat all of them. [regular voice] If you show me your best hiding place, I'd be happy to help.

[It's soon shown that the sofa was pushed outside of the house with Krabs on it.]

Maria: Seriously? I used to be Meta Human criminal. How stupid do you think I am?

[Gary slams the door. Krabs got so mad, he threw the cookie box on the ground and the box exploded.]

KRABOOOM!

They heard the explosion inside the house.

Maria: He must've put nitroglycerin in those cookies.

Horsea: Sounds like it.

Krabs: [dazed] Note to self: Nitroglycerin is not a substitute for vanilla extract. [his claws are blown to dust and he faints]

French Narrator: More moments later...

[Gary is seen growling at the window where he spots Krabs making faces at him. Gary comes out of the house.]

Gary: Meow?

Maria: Gary, no! It's a trap!

In Spongebob's house, Maria took off her outer clothes and was in her aqua blue one piece swimsuit.

Maria (to Gary and Horsea): You two are wondering why I'm in my swimsuit right now. Well, I'm about to do some gymnastics and my swimsuit is close to a leotard.

Horsea: Okay.

Outside, Maria did some awesome acrobatic and gymnastic moves. She did all kinds of cartwheels, jumping jacks, vault jumps and even handstands.

Horsea: Nice gymnastic moves, Maria!

Maria: Thanks Horsea.

Then they heard a crash.

Maria: What was that?

Horsea: Krabs must've gotten inside.

Gary: Meow!

[As Gary slithered by his litter box, Krabs was hiding in the ceiling. Gary looked suspiciously at his litter box, but continues looking for Krabs.]

Krabs: [Jumps down from the ceiling] Now, where is that secret formula?

[Krabs runs into the living room]

Krabs: Where is it? Where is it? Gotta be here somewhere.

[Krabs knocks down a table with a plant.]

Krabs: Nothin' in there. [sees one of the hooks on SpongeBob's decoration] Ooh, look at that.

[Krabs grabs the hook and pops SpongeBob's chair. He knocks over the table and looks in the shellphone.]

Krabs: Hello!

[His voice echoes. Krabs jumps on the wall and rips the wallpaper off.]

Krabs: Where the barnacles is it?

[Krabs rips the floor and sees nothing underneath.]

Krabs: Where is it? Where is it? I know you're in here! You're not foolin' anybody! I went to college!

[Krabs runs into the kitchen, opens the fridge, and jumps up and down to find the formula. He climbs on the stove and knocks over the fridge. Then he knocks over the stove, walks through the pipe and went into the cupboards.]

Krabs: Nope, nope, nope.

[As he is searching, he throws some dishes, kitchen appliances, and a huge trash can. He comes out with a turkey baster. Krabs thought that the baster could come in handy and puts it in his pocket. Gary is napping in SpongeBob's room until he hears the commotion from downstairs.]

[He goes to see what's making the noise. Krabs manages to hide himself from Gary. Once the coast is clear, he runs upstairs to SpongeBob's room. Maria, Horsea and Gary spot Krabs going upstairs and shutting the door. Krabs searches through SpongeBob's room to find the formula.]

Maria: He's inside and is in SpongeBob's room.

[A light bulb pops out from Gary's eye and lights up, giving Gary an idea on how to catch Krabs.]

Horsea knew Gary had an idea.

[Krabs comes out of SpongeBob's room and heads downstairs. On his way down, he slips on Gary's slime, lands and bounces off a mattress and gets flown into the ceiling fan. The fan spins him around and throws him through the basketball net. Krabs falls through the pipe and lands on a record player. Maria, Horsea and Gary snicker as they caught Krabs into their trap. The player spins Krabs around until he gets extremely dizzy. The player flies Krabs onto a board and he lands on a puddle of glue where he gets stuck. The bowling ball on the stool rolls down and board, lands on Krabs head and he shatters into a thousand pieces, which rolls across the floor, and hits ten flower pots like knocking down bowling pins. Then a small vacuum cleaner comes out, sucks up the dirt and broken pottery, and traps crabs inside. Krabs pops out of the vacuum gasping for air.]

Krabs: Alright, Snail! Let's go! Just you and me!

Gary: Meow!

Krabs: Put 'em up! Put 'em up!

[Gary fights Krabs with his eye stalks. During the fight, Krabs notices an opening in Gary's shell.]

Krabs: Of course! What a fool I've been!

Maria: (sees Krabs reaching into Gary's shell) What the hell do you think you're doing? Are you trying to molest Gary?!

Maria punches Krabs in the face and kicks him in the crotch and then she and Horsea and Gary pulverized Mr. Krabs all over the place with ferocious fury.

[It wasn't long until SpongeBob returned home from work.]

SpongeBob: Gary, I'm home!

[SpongeBob gasps in shock to see that his house is completely demolished.]

SpongeBob: What happened here? [gasps] My first Krabby Patty! I had it bronzed! Oh, and I was gonna give that to my grandchildren! [gasps] My Mermaid Man collectible underpants! Oh, I could've worn them a thousand more times! [gasps] My glass of water! [teary] I was gonna drink that!

Maria: Hey SpongeBob. Krabs here got inside and he fell for our trap.

SpongeBob: Good work Maria. You, Horsea and Maria did a great job.

Maria: This is probably the first time that I've defeated a bad guy by myself.

SpongeBob: It sure is.

Gary: Meow.

Horsea: You were awesome Maria.

Krabs was a broken, battered and completely mangled up mess.

Maria: To quote a friend of mine, Krabs, you have failed this city!

They laughed.

Patrick came in.

Patrick: Hey SpongeBob what's with all the ruckus?

SpongeBob: Krabs here broke in.

Patrick: That sweaty former boss of yours!?

Maria: No this is a different version of Krabs.

Maria picked him up and threw him right back towards the Crusty Crabnet.

Maria: Our wild goose chase worked SpongeBob.

SpongeBob: It sure did. You all did a great job.

Maria: Thanks SpongeBob.

Horsea: This was so awesome.

Patrick: (To the Viewers) Uhh. I got nothing.


Back home, Maria and Horsea told us what went down.

Lily: Our little wild goose chase paid off.

Maria: It sure did and Krabs never suspected a thing.

Horsea: He fell for it every step of the way.

Maria: He sure did.

William: Had a good time at Spongebob's, Maria?

Maria: I sure did. Krabs should learn that he can't fool a former villain. Especially one that was a Metahuman.

William: True. So, what Shen Gong Wu do you think we'll find next?

Maria: We'll have to wait and see. And something tells me that there are some people searching for the Wu as well.

We then see in the sky a large dragon flying through the clouds with 4 people riding on it.
