==Dialogue==
'''French Narrator''': ''Ahh, another peaceful evening in Bikini Bottom. Listen to the tropical tranquility.'' (we see the town of Bikini Bottom; something underground is tunneling and consumes the Bikini Bottom sign) ''Uh-oh.'' (the tunneling thing moves on to the rest of Bikini Bottom; a cop is writing a ticket for a car parked near a fire hydrant; the thing, still invisible, makes eating noises; we then see that the car has disappeared, so the cop picks up the fire hydrant, moves it to the adjacent car, and places the ticket on that car, whistling as he walks away; the thing moves on to SpongeBob’s house; Gary wakes up, sees the thing, and meows in terror; SpongeBob is still fast asleep) 

'''SpongeBob''': (mumbling, half-asleep) Trick-or-treat. Thank you. (the thing takes SpongeBob’s blanket) You keep the change.
(the thing takes SpongeBob’s pillow) What? (wakes up fully and stares fixedly at the thing in terror; cut to show half of the pineapple house’s walls missing. New scene shows SpongeBob talking to a crowd at the Krusty Krab) I saw it! It was big! It was all wiggly! And it ate everything!

'''Patrick''': That’s horrible. (gobbles down a whole tray of food, containers and all)

'''SpongeBob''': It was an Alaskan....Bull....Worm! (each of the three words appears on screen; crowd murmurs worriedly)

'''Fred''': He ate my wheelbarrow! (he has his wheelbarrow with a bite taken out of it)

'''Nancy''': He ate my children’s homework! (her two kids wink simultaneously and give a big thumbs-up)

'''Southwestern Fish''': (has a huge bite taken out of his butt) Do I need to say it?

'''Fish 4''': (crowd murmurs some more) How can we protect ourselves?

'''Mr. Krabs''': I've got it! Let’s all buy a Krabby Patty! (crowd boos and throws ketchup and mustard bottles at him)

'''Fish 5''': We should lock our doors!

'''Fish 6''': We should call my nephew!

'''Fish 7''': We should dig a moat!

'''Patrick''': We should take Bikini Bottom and push it somewhere else! (crowd immediately quiets down)

'''Squidward''': That idea may just be crazy enough... to get us all killed!! (crowd resumes fretting)

'''Fred''': Let’s get someone to go after it!

'''Mr. Krabs''': There ain’t no one fool enough to take on an Alaskan Bull Worm! (a horrible screeching noise is heard; the
crowd cringes. We see a scary-looking old guy in a raincoat with a hook for a hand, scraping it on the window of the
Krusty Krab; he stops. This is a homage to the 1975 film ''Jaws'')

'''Raincoat Fish''': You got a bathroom in this place?

'''Mr. Krabs''': (looks slightly peeved) In the back.

'''Raincoat Fish''': (legs wobble) Thanks. (runs for it)

'''Sandy''': (under a wide-brimmed cowboy hat) I’ll catch your worm for ya, that is, if'n you’re willing to pay! (tips brim up)

'''Mr. Krabs''': No! You’ll never get a cent out of me! (runs to block the cash register with his body) Never! I’d rather
that worm come in here right now and eat you all alive! (begins foaming at the mouth; the crowd looks at him strangely;
he calms down) Sorry.

'''Sandy''': (laughs good-naturedly) Aw shucks. I don’t want your money. I was just playing up the drama of the moment, is all.
(Mr. Krabs chuckles, which gradually turns into crying; Sandy continues) Nope. I’m gonna take that spineless critter down
for nothing, 'cause this is personal. Look. My tail’s gone! (she shows them; crowd gasps) Varmint must've got it while I
had my back turned, the coward! (crowd sympathizes) I am gonna get back what’s mine! (crowd cheers)

'''SpongeBob''': (looks alarmed) What? But Sandy, you don’t know what you’re up against. We’re talking about an ALASKAN...
BULL... WORM!!! (the three words appear on screen)

'''Sandy''': Well, I don’t know nothing about Alaska, but looky here. (pulls out a wallet with pictures) Back in Texas, I
wrangled bulls, and I wrangled worms. (we see pictures of a real-life squirrel with a lasso around a bull, then a lasso
around a worm) Far as I’m concerned, doing 'em both together just saves rope. Now I’m gonna go kick me some worm tail!
Yee-haw! (runs to the doors of the Krusty Krab; the crowd goes wild)

'''SpongeBob''': But Sandy, you don’t know!

'''Sandy''': Don’t worry, SpongeBob. I won’t be long. (leaves)

'''SpongeBob''': (chases after her) Sandy! Sandy!

'''Mr. Krabs''': (amidst the still-cheering crowd) Go get 'em, Sandy! We have the utmost confidence in you! (crowd stops; Mr.
Krabs turns to Patrick) Now, what was that idea of yours?

'''Patrick''': (new scene shows all the citizens trying to push the buildings of Bikini Bottom; screams) PUSH! (cuts back to SpongeBob chasing after Sandy)

'''SpongeBob''': Wait! Sandy!

'''Sandy''': Hey, SpongeBob, you coming to watch?

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy, don’t go!

'''Sandy''': Why not?

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy, I saw it! It’s big... scary... and pink! (each word appears on the screen)

'''Sandy''': So’s Patrick’s belly button, but I ain’t afraid of that neither!

'''SpongeBob''': You’ll get massacred! (collapses into sponge-cubes)

'''Sandy''': SpongeBob, I’m from Texas. What you think is big and what I think is big are two totally different "big"s. Besides, he’s got my tail. I can’t take that sitting down.

'''SpongeBob''': Okay, but what if the worm didn’t take your tail?

'''Sandy''': If that worm ain’t got my tail, who does?

'''SpongeBob''': (unconvincingly) Um, I do?

'''Sandy''': You do? Where?

'''SpongeBob''': Um... in my pocket.

'''Sandy''': Well, why didn’t you just say so? Give it here! Come on! (SpongeBob looks nervous, pulls something from his
pocket, and opens his hand) SpongeBob, that’s a paper clip and a piece of string.

'''SpongeBob''': (shakes head) No, it’s not. This is your tail.

'''Sandy''': (annoyed) SpongeBob!

'''SpongeBob''': (defensively; tearing up) How would you know?! It’s always behind you! Oh, don’t go, don’t go, don’t go! (jumps onto the front of Sandy’s air helmet and hugs it)

'''Sandy''': (pulls him off) SpongeBob, what is the matter with you? Now, I’m gonna go give that legless rascal what-for, and
there ain’t nothing you can say to stop me! (resumes walking)

'''SpongeBob''': Oh yeah? What if I said.... 'blargen fedibble no-hip'?

'''Sandy''': (stops) Well, I gotta admit, that slowed me down, but I’m still going for him! (continues)

'''SpongeBob''': (appears next to Sandy as she strides along) You know, tails are so overrated. Let’s just forget about it and
go home. (Sandy keeps walking; SpongeBob reappears) I've got ice cream! With nuts... (Sandy continues; SpongeBob appears
once more, this time with a goofy squirrel mask on his face) Sandy, this is your pappy speaking, and I forbid you to go
after this worm! Y'all come back here, young lady!

'''Sandy''': You ain’t my pa!

'''SpongeBob''': (stands in front of her with boxing gloves) Sandy, if you want to get to that worm, you’re gonna have to go
through me! (Sandy pushes through his body as if walking through a pair of swinging doors; he grabs her ankles, crying)
Sandy, no! I can’t let you! I’m not gonna let you get killed. If you find him, you’ll get eaten for sure!

'''Sandy''': Ain’t no way some dumb old sea worm’s gonna make a meal of me. I’m too Texas tough!

'''SpongeBob''': (still crying and holding onto her ankles) No, not tough enough. Not tough enough!

'''Sandy''': SpongeBob, quit your worrying. I can take care of myself. After all, who’s the strongest critter in Bikini Bottom?
(she grabs an anchor and pulls a boat down from the surface)

'''SpongeBob''': You are.

'''Sandy''': And who put the hi-yah, hi, ho, "K" in karate? (makes a K shape)

'''SpongeBob''': (makes a U shape) You did.

'''Sandy''': And who saves your yellow backside from certain destruction on a regular basis?

'''SpongeBob''': (his butt has "Property of Sandy Cheeks" printed on it) You do.

'''Sandy''': Right. And I can handle your little bull worm too, 'cause I am the best there is! There ain’t nothin’ too big or
too ornery for me to catch.

'''SpongeBob''': Okay.

'''Sandy''': Say it.

'''SpongeBob''': There isn’t anything...

'''Sandy''': Ain’t nothin'!

'''SpongeBob''': (in a high-pitched voice like Sandy) Ain’t nothin’ (normal voice) too big or too ornery for you to catch.
But... (Sandy cuts him off) But... (cuts him off again) And... (cuts him off again) We... (cuts him off again) I... (cuts
him off again) Yeah but...

'''Sandy''': No!

'''SpongeBob''': You see...

'''Sandy''': No!

'''SpongeBob''': I... (Sandy cuts him off one last time with a frustrated groan)

'''Sandy''': (picks up some sand from the ground as if tracking an animal and sniffs it) Worm sign. (holds a small sign in
her palm that has "WORM" painted on it; looks up) He’s in that cave.

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy, are you sure you...?

'''Sandy''': Course I am! I’m going in, and I ain’t coming out 'til I got me a big heaping plate of wormy stew. (she walks into
the cave; SpongeBob hides behind a rock and shudders; we hear Sandy inside the cave) Aha! There you are, you tail-nabbin’
varmint! Hi-yah! (we hear karate noises; Sandy peeks out of the cave) I’m winnin', SpongeBob! (resumes fighting)

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy, that’s not...! (more fighting noises; Sandy peeks out again)

'''Sandy''': This shouldn’t take long. (resumes fighting)

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy, that’s not...!

'''Sandy''': Almost done!

'''SpongeBob''': Sandy!

'''Sandy''': Yee-haw! (comes out riding a pink segmented thing) I got him, SpongeBob! (makes a giant knot and stands on it
proudly)

'''SpongeBob''': (still uneasy) Sandy...?

'''Sandy''': Boy, howdy. This critter put up some sort of fight. But I’m from Texas, and as you can see, no wormy is a match for
me. I even found my tail! (we see that she has tied the fur to the small remainder of her tail)

'''SpongeBob''': That’s not the worm.

'''Sandy''': Pardon?

'''SpongeBob''': That’s not the worm. That’s his tongue. (camera zooms out to show that SpongeBob is right; the opening of the
cave is actually the worm’s open mouth; his eyes make a squishy blinking noise)

'''Sandy''': Ohhhh. This is the tongue, and... (trailing off) the whole thing... is the... worm. (freaks out) '''RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!''' (they sprint away; the worm growls angrily, chomps down, and chases after them)

'''SpongeBob''': So what’s the plan, Sandy? (they look back and see that the worm is approaching faster)

'''Sandy''': Move faster!!

'''SpongeBob''': I could've thought of that. Hey, wait a minute! I was right, wasn’t I?!

'''Sandy''': Later!

'''SpongeBob''': Ah, he is too big for you, isn’t he?

'''Sandy''': Not now, SpongeBob!

'''SpongeBob''': I wanna hear you say it!

'''Sandy''': Can we talk about this another time?

'''SpongeBob''': Say it!

'''Sandy''': SpongeBob!

'''SpongeBob''': Say it, or I’ll trip you! (he continues running on one foot, the other poised to trip Sandy)

'''Sandy''': No!

'''SpongeBob''': Say it!

'''Sandy''': Not now!

'''SpongeBob''': Say it!

'''Sandy''': Okay! You were right, and I was wrong. I was wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong! Are you happy now?

'''SpongeBob''': (devilishly) I knew it. (the worm emits another huge growl, prompting the two to move even faster; they run up
and down a sand mound, which the worm plows right through. They run past Fish 3, who is leaning over under his car’s
hood; his butt is bandaged up. The worm passes by and takes another bite out of him)

'''Southwestern Fish''': Not again!

'''SpongeBob''': Uh, Sandy?

'''Sandy''': Yeah?

'''SpongeBob''': What do we do now?

'''Sandy''': (panting and sweating; the worm growls again. Sees the seemingly endless coral trees in front of them)
I've got it! SpongeBob, you still got that paper clip and that string?

'''SpongeBob''': I’m way ahead of you, Sandy. (fashions a necklace out of them) Look, it’s a necklace! S for "SpongeBob" or S
for "Sandy"! That way they can identify our bodies.

'''Sandy''': No, silly! How about S for "save our skins"? (takes the string and uses the hook of the paper clip to wrap the
string around one of the coral trees; she grabs SpongeBob and swings them up and over the branch onto the worm back) Yee-haw! Now this is what I call a rodeo! We’ll be nice and safe up here. (the worm starts to plow off a cliff like a
runaway train; Sandy and SpongeBob realize this, scream, and begin running toward the end of the worm to the safety of the
plateau. They jump off safely as the worm falls off the cliff) We did it!

'''SpongeBob''': Yay! He’ll never get out of there!

'''Sandy''': We saved the town!

'''SpongeBob''': Yay! Let’s go tell everybody! (new scene shows all the citizens still trying to push Bikini Bottom to safety;
the city is now in the valley at the bottom of the cliff)

'''Patrick''': PUSH! (screams) PUSH!

'''Citizens''': Hooray!! (the worm, which is still falling, lands on the city and smashes it to bits)

'''Worm''': Ouch.....

==Dialogue==
'''(SpongeBob is happily watching sea-creatures on TV in his armchair in his pineapple) 

'''Gary''': Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Gary! (changes channel to a football game) Uhh, I was just looking for the sports channel, Gary. (knock on door) Come in! (Gets up to meet Patrick at the door) 

'''Patrick:''' Hey SpongeBob, wanna see my new shoes? (shows blue tennis shoes) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Wow! Those are great, Patrick! Let’s see what they look like on your feet. 

'''Patrick:''' Uhh, wouldn’t you rather see them on my hands? (puts shoes on his hands) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ok. (puts white gloves on his feet) And we can wear gloves on our feet... (puts hat on his back) and hats on our
captain’s quarters, too! 

'''Patrick:''' Uhh, actually, I have a confession to make. (whispers in his ear) I don’t know how to tie my shoelaces. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (laughs) Do you know how lucky you are to have a friend like me? 

'''Patrick:''' Yes. (SpongeBob places one foot on the chair) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Look at this knot. Have you ever seen a more perfectly executed shoe-fastening bow? 

'''Patrick:''' Gosh, probably not. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I learned when I was just a boy, Patrick, and I’m going to let that up. Go sit over there and let an old pro show you how to do it. (Patrick sits down on the couch and SpongeBob sets his foot on the couch arm) Pay close attention, Patrick. (unties his laces) Well, you start by taking one lace per hand. (grabs both laces) And then you...ubhh, you gotta...loop the...tuhh... 

'''Patrick:''' Are you sure you know how to do it? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Patrick, please! Shoe-tying requires peace and quiet! Okay, where was I? 

'''Patrick:''' Your shoes are still untied. (SpongeBob takes his shoe off the couch) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Well, I guess you don’t want me to show you how to do it. 

'''Patrick:''' I’m sorry! (covers his mouth with his shoes) I won’t interrupt anymore! 

'''SpongeBob:''' I've got it! The first rule of shoe-tying is always start with your right foot. Now the lesson will officially begin. (sets his right foot on the couch arm and unties his laces. Ties his laces but they come undone. SpongeBob laughs nervously and tries again but the laces untie themselves once more) That’s "knot" right. (laughs) Get it? Knot...right? 

'''Patrick:''' No. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, no more fooling around! (tries to tie the laces again) I've got it! (lifts up hands to show them tied in a lot of knots) 

'''Patrick:''' What was that? Are you okay, SpongeBob?

'''SpongeBob:''' Patrick, aren’t you late for something? 

'''Patrick:''' Oh, poop deck! You’re right! We’ll have to do this lesson later! Bye SpongeBob! (Hurridly runs out the door) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I can’t believe I've forgotten how to tie my shoes. They've been tied as long as I can remember. (flashbacks to being a baby with legs and shoes only) Well, I’ll remember after a good night’s sleep. (when morning arrives, SpongeBob looks at his shoes and they are still untied) No big deal. I’ll remember sooner or later. (opens the front door) 'Cause I’m ready! I’m rea... (takes a step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...doy! (continues until SpongeBob arrives at the Krusty Krab)

(Patrick, who is eating a Krabby Patty, notices SpongeBob) 

'''Patrick:''' Well hiya, SpongeBob. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (gasps) Oh, no. I can’t let Pat see I still haven’t tied my shoes. (stands up and puts two holes through the floor with his feet) 

'''Patrick:''' Hey SpongeBob, you’re shorter. Have you been dieting? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Well, a sponge has to look his spongiest. (walks to the kitchen putting a line of holes in the floor with his feet)
Well, I've gotta get to work. (opens kitchen door and plops on the floor, face first) Oh, barnacles, maybe I should just lay here. 

'''Squidward:''' (peeks his head through the order window) Those patties aren’t gonna cook themselves, SpongeBob! 

'''SpongeBob:''' He’s right! Got to make... Krabby Patties! (he holds out a spatula and gets up) Laces or no laces! (crawls over to
the grill) I just have to stand in this one spot. (makes a Krabby Patty) Ta-da! (makes 3 more Krabby Patties) Ta-da! A perfect patty. 

'''Squidward:''' Alright, SpongeBob, hand it over. Well? (SpongeBob takes a deep breath. Then imagines his shoe laces as snakes who squeeze him then the hallucination goes away) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hey, Squidward! I've got an idea! How about you come get it? 

'''Squidward:''' Oh gee, SpongeBob, that’s a great idea! And maybe I should cook the patties, and do the dishes, and wear square pants, and live in a pineapple... while you wait in the unemployment line! 

'''SpongeBob:''' No! 

'''Squidward:''' Then bring that patty here now! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, Squidward. Here I come. I’m coming over. (scoots his shoes across the floor inch by inch) I’m bringing the patty to you. Here comes the patty. No problem. I’m walking...the Krabby Patty...over to Squidward. All right, Squidward! I’m giving you the patty...for the hungry customer. So they can eat it when I give it to you. Which is right...now! (holds out the patty but the scene zooms out to show that SpongeBob never moved) 

'''Squidward:''' Uhh, SpongeBob. I’m over here, now move! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, Squidward! (looks down at his pants) Just slowly move your leg.

'''SpongeBob: ''' Move It Move It Move It (tries to take a step but trips himself and sends the patty flying through the air at Squidward) D'oh! 

'''Squidward:''' SpongeBob! (the patty lands in his mouth) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m sorry, I tried to move! 

Squidward: (chewing the patty) SpongeBob! 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’ll just make another. (makes another patty but trips again throwing the patty towards Squidward) 

'''Squidward:''' Sponge... (patty enters his mouth) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hold it! (makes another patty and trips again sending the patty into Squidward’s mouth again) Let me just... (makes
another patty) D'oh! (he trips again and launches another patty. This continues for a while. Pretty soon, Squid is extremely huge. A group of customers is standing at the register. An old man pokes him) 

'''Customer:''' What’s the holdup? (Squidward turns around and burps really loudly) 

'''Squidward''': I think my heart just stopped. (customers complain) It’s Sponge... (burps) ...Bob’s fault! ('SpongeBob’s fault' echoes in SpongeBob’s head) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I've failed. My career is over. I’m sorry, spatula. (puts down the spatula and takes his hat off) I’m sorry, hat. (puts it back on) I’m sorry, floor. (hugs a box of patties) I am sorry, Krabby Patties. (lies in a puddle of tears and absorbs it while Mr. Krabs is working on a crossword puzzle) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Let’s see, a five-letter word for happiness. Money. (laughs) 
Customer: This is the worst service we've ever had! We’re going to the Chum Bucket! (Mr. Krabs opens the bathroom door to see what the problem is) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Wait, wait! Don’t go! (his pants are undone since he’s Princess Peach) 

'''Customer:''' Oh yeah, we are definitely out of here. (Mr. Krabs runs over to the door) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Wait, wait! Don’t go! That’s me money walking out the door! What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Squidward? 

'''Squidward:''' It’s SpongeBob’s fault. (Mr. Krabs gets upset. His eyes turn into steamboat whistles) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' SpongeBob, get out here! (peeks out the kitchen door) More. (SpongeBob peeks out a little more) More. (SpongeBob stretches himself partially through the door) All the way, boy! (SpongeBob falls to the ground completely out the door) What be the matter, SpongeBob? I ought to make you walk the plank for this. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m sorry Mr. Krabs, it’s just that I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Yes? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I...I...I...I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Yes? Yes? Yes? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I...I...I...I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Out with it, boy! What is it? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I forgot how to tie my shoes. 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' (laughs) That’s all? 

'''SpongeBob:''' So you’ll show me how? 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' I don’t wear shoes. (SpongeBob gasps then runs over to [[Tom]]) 

SpongeBob: Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Tom:''' Uhh, fins? (points to his feet. SpongeBob runs to another customer) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Eel:''' Well I would but, sadly, I am only an eel. (wiggles her tail in front of SpongeBob’s face. SpongeBob runs to Jellyfish Fields) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Could any of you show me how to tie my laces? (jellyfish sting him. scene cuts to SpongeBob looking under a rock of leeches) Could you, you, you, you, or you show me how to tie a knot? (leaches run off. Scene cuts to SpongeBob looking into a cave) Could you show me how to tie a simple knot? (pair of eyes become multiple eyes and the monster eats SpongeBob. He notices a fisherman skeleton inside its mouth) Could you show me how to tie my shoes? (monster spits him out of its blow hole and onto the painting of Painty the Pirate) Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Painty:''' Arr, I be just a painting of a head. 

'''SpongeBob:''' '''DOESN'T ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TIE A KNOT?!!!!!!!!!''' (lightning appears as well as the Flying Dutchman) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Did somebody say knot? 

'''SpongeBob:''' (eyes grow large) I did. 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' So, you wanna tie knots, do ya? Well, do ya? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Yes, please, Mr. Flying Dutchman, sir. 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Then you've come to the right flying ghost, kid. You’re looking at the first place winner in the fancy
knottin’ contest for the last 3,000 years! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hooray! (floats up into the air and into a heart) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' (grabs SpongeBob) You’re gonna have to not do that. And stop staring at me with them big old eyes! (SpongeBob’s eyes shrink) Now, stand back and watch me be knotty. (laughs and pulls out a rope) Haha! Behold! (rope is in pretzel shape) The pretzel knot! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ohh. (Flying Dutchman makes the rope into 2 diamonds) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' The double-diamond knot! (holds the rope, now in the shape of a square, in front of SpongeBob) The square knot! (rope slithers over and squeezes SpongeBob) The constrictor. (Grabs SpongeBob and pulls him apart revealing a knot that looks like intestines) The gut knot! (Flying Dutchman makes a knot in the shape of a pillow) The pillow knot. (turns the knot over where SpongeBob is sleeping. Then he makes the knot into a butterfly) The butterfly knot. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ohh... 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Wait! There’s more. (SpongeBob takes out a pen and paper and his glasses) The monkey chain! (shows the rope as a chain) The monkey’s fist! (shows the rope into a ball) The monkey! (shows the rope as a monkey) 

'''Monkey:''' Ohh, ohh! 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' This one here’s a loop knot, otherwise known as the 'poop loop'. (pulls the rope) 

'''Rope:''' Pooooooop! 

'''SpongeBob:''' (laughs) Those are great, Mr. Flying Dutchman, sir! Now can you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' (laughs) I don’t know how to tie me shoes. I haven’t worn shoes for over 5,000 years! (holds a sock with two
blue stripes up) But sometimes I like to wear this little sock over me ghostly tail. (laughs as he flies off. Scene cuts to SpongeBob crawling into his pineapple) 

'''Gary:''' Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Not now, Gary. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m not in the mood, Gary. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (crawls into bed) Just leave me and me untied shoes alone, Gary. (Gary roars knocking SpongeBob off the bed and onto the
floor) Okay, Gary. You have my attention. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. (ties SpongeBobs shoes) 

'''SpongeBob:''' (gasps) Gary! Well, I’ll be. You can tie shoes! (Gary shows hes wearing shoes under his shell) Hoppin’ clams! How
did you learn to do that? 

'''Song:''' "[[Loop dee Loop!]]"'''
Wanna learn how to tie your shoe?
It’s a very easy thing to do.
Just sit on down and I’ll give you the scoop,
What’s that? It’s called the loop-dee-loop.

You gotta take a lace in each hand,
You go over and under again,
You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool.

You go over and back, left to right,
Loop-dee-loop and you pull 'em tight,
Like bunny ears or a Christmas bow,
Lace 'em up and you’re ready to go.

You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool.

You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool!

'''SpongeBob:''' Yeah Cool!

==Dialogue==
'''(SpongeBob is happily watching sea-creatures on TV in his armchair in his pineapple) 

'''Gary''': Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Gary! (changes channel to a football game) Uhh, I was just looking for the sports channel, Gary. (knock on door) Come in! (Gets up to meet Patrick at the door) 

'''Patrick:''' Hey SpongeBob, wanna see my new shoes? (shows blue tennis shoes) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Wow! Those are great, Patrick! Let’s see what they look like on your feet. 

'''Patrick:''' Uhh, wouldn’t you rather see them on my hands? (puts shoes on his hands) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ok. (puts white gloves on his feet) And we can wear gloves on our feet... (puts hat on his back) and hats on our
captain’s quarters, too! 

'''Patrick:''' Uhh, actually, I have a confession to make. (whispers in his ear) I don’t know how to tie my shoelaces. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (laughs) Do you know how lucky you are to have a friend like me? 

'''Patrick:''' Yes. (SpongeBob places one foot on the chair) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Look at this knot. Have you ever seen a more perfectly executed shoe-fastening bow? 

'''Patrick:''' Gosh, probably not. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I learned when I was just a boy, Patrick, and I’m going to let that up. Go sit over there and let an old pro show you how to do it. (Patrick sits down on the couch and SpongeBob sets his foot on the couch arm) Pay close attention, Patrick. (unties his laces) Well, you start by taking one lace per hand. (grabs both laces) And then you...ubhh, you gotta...loop the...tuhh... 

'''Patrick:''' Are you sure you know how to do it? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Patrick, please! Shoe-tying requires peace and quiet! Okay, where was I? 

'''Patrick:''' Your shoes are still untied. (SpongeBob takes his shoe off the couch) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Well, I guess you don’t want me to show you how to do it. 

'''Patrick:''' I’m sorry! (covers his mouth with his shoes) I won’t interrupt anymore! 

'''SpongeBob:''' I've got it! The first rule of shoe-tying is always start with your right foot. Now the lesson will officially begin. (sets his right foot on the couch arm and unties his laces. Ties his laces but they come undone. SpongeBob laughs nervously and tries again but the laces untie themselves once more) That’s "knot" right. (laughs) Get it? Knot...right? 

'''Patrick:''' No. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, no more fooling around! (tries to tie the laces again) I've got it! (lifts up hands to show them tied in a lot of knots) 

'''Patrick:''' What was that? Are you okay, SpongeBob?

'''SpongeBob:''' Patrick, aren’t you late for something? 

'''Patrick:''' Oh, poop deck! You’re right! We’ll have to do this lesson later! Bye SpongeBob! (Hurridly runs out the door) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I can’t believe I've forgotten how to tie my shoes. They've been tied as long as I can remember. (flashbacks to being a baby with legs and shoes only) Well, I’ll remember after a good night’s sleep. (when morning arrives, SpongeBob looks at his shoes and they are still untied) No big deal. I’ll remember sooner or later. (opens the front door) 'Cause I’m ready! I’m rea... (takes a step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...dy! (stands up) I’m rea... (takes another step and trips) ...doy! (continues until SpongeBob arrives at the Krusty Krab)

(Patrick, who is eating a Krabby Patty, notices SpongeBob) 

'''Patrick:''' Well hiya, SpongeBob. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (gasps) Oh, no. I can’t let Pat see I still haven’t tied my shoes. (stands up and puts two holes through the floor with his feet) 

'''Patrick:''' Hey SpongeBob, you’re shorter. Have you been dieting? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Well, a sponge has to look his spongiest. (walks to the kitchen putting a line of holes in the floor with his feet)
Well, I've gotta get to work. (opens kitchen door and plops on the floor, face first) Oh, barnacles, maybe I should just lay here. 

'''Squidward:''' (peeks his head through the order window) Those patties aren’t gonna cook themselves, SpongeBob! 

'''SpongeBob:''' He’s right! Got to make... Krabby Patties! (he holds out a spatula and gets up) Laces or no laces! (crawls over to
the grill) I just have to stand in this one spot. (makes a Krabby Patty) Ta-da! (makes 3 more Krabby Patties) Ta-da! A perfect patty. 

'''Squidward:''' Alright, SpongeBob, hand it over. Well? (SpongeBob takes a deep breath. Then imagines his shoe laces as snakes who squeeze him then the hallucination goes away) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hey, Squidward! I've got an idea! How about you come get it? 

'''Squidward:''' Oh gee, SpongeBob, that’s a great idea! And maybe I should cook the patties, and do the dishes, and wear square pants, and live in a pineapple... while you wait in the unemployment line! 

'''SpongeBob:''' No! 

'''Squidward:''' Then bring that patty here now! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, Squidward. Here I come. I’m coming over. (scoots his shoes across the floor inch by inch) I’m bringing the patty to you. Here comes the patty. No problem. I’m walking...the Krabby Patty...over to Squidward. All right, Squidward! I’m giving you the patty...for the hungry customer. So they can eat it when I give it to you. Which is right...now! (holds out the patty but the scene zooms out to show that SpongeBob never moved) 

'''Squidward:''' Uhh, SpongeBob. I’m over here, now move! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Okay, Squidward! (looks down at his pants) Just slowly move your leg.

'''SpongeBob: ''' Move It Move It Move It (tries to take a step but trips himself and sends the patty flying through the air at Squidward) D'oh! 

'''Squidward:''' SpongeBob! (the patty lands in his mouth) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m sorry,I tried to move Squidward! 

Squidward: (chewing the patty) SpongeBob! 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’ll just make another. (makes another patty but trips again throwing the patty towards Squidward) 

'''Squidward:''' Sponge... (patty enters his mouth) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hold it! (makes another patty and trips again sending the patty into Squidward’s mouth again) Let me just... (makes
another patty) D'oh! (he trips again and launches another patty. This continues for a while. Pretty soon, Squid is extremely huge. A group of customers is standing at the register. An old man pokes him) 

'''Customer:''' What’s the holdup? (Squidward turns around and burps really loudly) 

'''Squidward''': I think my heart just stopped. (customers complain) It’s Sponge... (burps) ...Bob’s fault! ('SpongeBob’s fault' echoes in SpongeBob’s head) 

'''SpongeBob:''' I've failed. My career is over. I’m sorry, spatula. (puts down the spatula and takes his hat off) I’m sorry, hat. (puts it back on) I’m sorry, floor. (hugs a box of patties) I am sorry, Krabby Patties. (lies in a puddle of tears and absorbs it while Mr. Krabs is working on a crossword puzzle) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Let’s see, a five-letter word for happiness. Money. (laughs) 
Customer: This is the worst service we've ever had! We’re going to the Chum Bucket! (Mr. Krabs opens the bathroom door to see what the problem is) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Wait, wait! Don’t go! (his pants are undone since he’s Princess Peach) 

'''Customer:''' Oh yeah, we are definitely out of here. (Mr. Krabs runs over to the door) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Wait, wait! Don’t go! That’s me money walking out the door! What’s the meaning of this, Mr. Squidward? 

'''Squidward:''' It’s SpongeBob’s fault. (Mr. Krabs gets upset. His eyes turn into steamboat whistles) 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' SpongeBob, get out here! (peeks out the kitchen door) More. (SpongeBob peeks out a little more) More. (SpongeBob stretches himself partially through the door) All the way, boy! (SpongeBob falls to the ground completely out the door) What be the matter, SpongeBob? I ought to make you walk the plank for this. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m sorry Mr. Krabs, it’s just that I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Yes? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I...I...I...I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Yes? Yes? Yes? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I...I...I...I...I... 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' Out with it, boy! What is it? 

'''SpongeBob:''' I forgot how to tie my shoes. 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' (laughs) That’s all? 

'''SpongeBob:''' So you’ll show me how? 

'''Mr. Krabs:''' I don’t wear shoes. (SpongeBob gasps then runs over to [[Tom]]) 

SpongeBob: Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Tom:''' Uhh, fins? (points to his feet. SpongeBob runs to another customer) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Eel:''' Well I would but, sadly, I am only an eel. (wiggles her tail in front of SpongeBob’s face. SpongeBob runs to Jellyfish Fields) 

'''SpongeBob:''' Could any of you show me how to tie my laces? (jellyfish sting him. scene cuts to SpongeBob looking under a rock of leeches) Could you, you, you, you, or you show me how to tie a knot? (leaches run off. Scene cuts to SpongeBob looking into a cave) Could you show me how to tie a simple knot? (pair of eyes become multiple eyes and the monster eats SpongeBob. He notices a fisherman skeleton inside its mouth) Could you show me how to tie my shoes? (monster spits him out of its blow hole and onto the painting of Painty the Pirate) Could you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Painty:''' Arr, I be just a painting of a head. 

'''SpongeBob:''' '''DOESN'T ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TIE A KNOT?!!!!!!!!!''' (lightning appears as well as the Flying Dutchman) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Did somebody say knot? 

'''SpongeBob:''' (eyes grow large) I did. 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' So, you wanna tie knots, do ya? Well, do ya? 

'''SpongeBob:''' Yes, please, Mr. Flying Dutchman, sir. 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Then you've come to the right flying ghost, kid. You’re looking at the first place winner in the fancy
knottin’ contest for the last 3,000 years! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Hooray! (floats up into the air and into a heart) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' (grabs SpongeBob) You’re gonna have to not do that. And stop staring at me with them big old eyes! (SpongeBob’s eyes shrink) Now, stand back and watch me be knotty. (laughs and pulls out a rope) Haha! Behold! (rope is in pretzel shape) The pretzel knot! 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ohh. (Flying Dutchman makes the rope into 2 diamonds) 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' The double-diamond knot! (holds the rope, now in the shape of a square, in front of SpongeBob) The square knot! (rope slithers over and squeezes SpongeBob) The constrictor. (Grabs SpongeBob and pulls him apart revealing a knot that looks like intestines) The gut knot! (Flying Dutchman makes a knot in the shape of a pillow) The pillow knot. (turns the knot over where SpongeBob is sleeping. Then he makes the knot into a butterfly) The butterfly knot. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Ohh... 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' Wait! There’s more. (SpongeBob takes out a pen and paper and his glasses) The monkey chain! (shows the rope as a chain) The monkey’s fist! (shows the rope into a ball) The monkey! (shows the rope as a monkey) 

'''Monkey:''' Ohh, ohh! 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' This one here’s a loop knot, otherwise known as the 'poop loop'. (pulls the rope) 

'''Rope:''' Pooooooop! 

'''SpongeBob:''' (laughs) Those are great, Mr. Flying Dutchman, sir! Now can you show me how to tie my shoes? 

'''Flying Dutchman:''' (laughs) I don’t know how to tie me shoes. I haven’t worn shoes for over 5,000 years! (holds a sock with two
blue stripes up) But sometimes I like to wear this little sock over me ghostly tail. (laughs as he flies off. Scene cuts to SpongeBob crawling into his pineapple) 

'''Gary:''' Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' Not now, Gary. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' I’m not in the mood, Gary. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. Meow. 

'''SpongeBob:''' (crawls into bed) Just leave me and me untied shoes alone, Gary. (Gary roars knocking SpongeBob off the bed and onto the
floor) Okay, Gary. You have my attention. 

'''Gary:''' Meow. (ties SpongeBobs shoes) 

'''SpongeBob:''' (gasps) Gary! Well, I’ll be. You can tie shoes! (Gary shows hes wearing shoes under his shell) Hoppin’ clams! How
did you learn to do that? 

'''Song:''' "[[Loop dee Loop!]]"'''
Wanna learn how to tie your shoe?
It’s a very easy thing to do.
Just sit on down and I’ll give you the scoop,
What’s that? It’s called the loop-dee-loop.

You gotta take a lace in each hand,
You go over and under again,
You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool.

You go over and back, left to right,
Loop-dee-loop and you pull 'em tight,
Like bunny ears or a Christmas bow,
Lace 'em up and you’re ready to go.

You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool.

You make a loop-dee-loop and pull,
And your shoes are lookin’ cool!

'''SpongeBob:''' Yeah Cool!
