==Plot==
SpongeBob meets a stranger. After calling the police on the stranger for littering, Squidward says that the stranger is, in fact, the Tattle-Tale Strangler. Seconds later, the Strangler escapes, looking for SpongeBob. SpongeBob looks for a bodyguard for protection, but no one would take the job when they found out the Strangler was after him. The Strangler later finds out and takes the job to kill him.  He dons a disguise (a fake, 5-cent Moustache) and finds SpongeBob.  Spongebob says that he just hopes the strangler's hands aren't dirty, which then shows the strangler looking at his disgusting hands and laughing.

He then realizes he needs a quiet place to strangle him, but SpongeBob needs to run some errands first. They are faced by every possible delay, and they finally get to SpongeBob's house. SpongeBob realizes he lost his key and looks for it in his pockets for 20 minutes. The Strangler decides to get though a window a bit high up and asks SpongeBob to climb on his shoulders. SpongeBob, now with sharp cleats on his shoes, attempts to jump on his shoulders, instead landing directly in his eyes. He struggles to pull them out for 6 straight hours, finally pulling them out and then putting bandages on his damaged corneas.

The lights then turn on, revealing a "100% on-time average" surprise party. Spongebob acts surprised, asking how they knew, with Patrick saying that they just did what the invitations told them to do.  The party goes on for a considerable length of time. The Strangler then attempts to choke him again, but the guests come back for a birthday party for SpongeBob. Finally alone, he tries again, but then Patrick shows up for some odd reason. The Strangler tries to get rid of him, saying:"He could be the Strangler in disguise". Patrick then runs off, breaking through the wall and leaving a hole the shape of a star so he can turn himself in thinking he was the Strangler.

The Strangler says "Oh, it's a fake, you idiot! I bought it at the party store!"

The Strangler says "At least I'm safe from that yellow idiot!" Soon after, the Strangler finds Patrick (who still thinks he's the strangler) in his cell, who asks, "Hey mac, what're ya in for?". Once again the Strangler is stuck with another idiot, but a much dumber one.

[edit] Plot

SpongeBob meets a stranger. After calling the police on the stranger for littering, Squidward says that the stranger is, in fact, the Tattle-Tale Strangler. Seconds later, the Strangler escapes, looking for SpongeBob. SpongeBob looks for a bodyguard for protection, but no one would take the job when they found out the Strangler was after him. The Strangler later finds out and takes the job to kill him. He dons a disguise (a fake, 5-cent Moustache) and finds SpongeBob. SpongeBob says that he just hopes the strangler's hands aren't dirty, which then shows the strangler looking at his disgusting hands and laughing.

He then realizes he needs a quiet place to strangle him, but SpongeBob needs to run some errands first. They are faced by every possible delay, and they finally get to SpongeBob's house. SpongeBob realizes he lost his key and looks for it in his pockets for 20 minutes. The Strangler decides to get though a window a bit high up and asks SpongeBob to climb on his shoulders. SpongeBob, now with sharp cleats on his shoes, attempts to jump on his shoulders, instead landing directly in his eyes. He struggles to pull them out for 6 straight hours, finally pulling them out and then putting bandages on his damaged corneas.

After that SpongeBob says he has a key under the mat he has almost forgot about. The Strangler then locks the doors and starts to choke SpongeBob. The lights then turn on, revealing a "100% on-time average" surprise party. SpongeBob acts surprised, asking how they knew, with Patrick saying that they just did what the invitations told them to do. The party goes on for a considerable length of time. The Strangler then attempts to choke him again, but the guests come back for a birthday party for SpongeBob. Finally alone, he tries again, but then Patrick shows up for some odd reason. The Strangler tries to get rid of him, saying:"He could be the Strangler in disguise". Patrick then runs off, breaking through the wall and leaving a hole the shape of a star so he can turn himself in thinking he was the Strangler.

The real Strangler, enraged, reveals Patrick isn't the Strangler, he is, and reveals himself (by taking off his fake mustache), but SpongeBob still doesn't resist, finding out that Patrick isn't the strangler and is amazed how he has ripped off his Mustache without shaving cream.
