'''Brief summary:''' This April Fools Day, SpongeBob is constantly annoying Squidward with his pranks. Squidward responds by playing a very nasty prank on him, which unfortunately depresses (and injures) SpongeBob. Squidward realizes what he did was too harsh, and that SpongeBob was doing his pranks on others rather than Squidward, so Squidward must apologize to make his conscience clear. It's not easy.

SpongeBob wakes up, and realises that it's April Fools Day. He begins the day with pranking his snail, Gary (who cries because he doesn't know it is April Fools Day), then goes to work. Squidward, annoyed by the laughing, looks at the calendar. He is shocked and surprised that it's April Fools Day, and calls Mr. Krabs saying he's sick. Mr. Krabs says that there's some guy in his office who wants to sell Squidward's art. Squidward immediately rushes to his office, only to find that it was a prank. Squidward resigns, but gets his job back after being persuaded by SpongeBob. SpongeBob is constantly doing pranks with his tongue, and his laughs annoy Squidward. So, Squidward does a prank on him. He gets a blob of mustard in the middle of a lasso. SpongeBob goes to clean it up, and the lasso closes on his leg. Squidward chops a nearby rope, which sends SpongeBob flying around getting seriously hurt. Squidward laughs hard out, while SpongeBob cries and run away. The customers aren't happy with Squidward around, so they leave, one of them yelling, "April Fools, JERK!". Squidward has to apologize, but he can't say he's sorry. He thinks of other ways to apologize to SpongeBob, but all fail until he decides to apologize after remembering what happened.

SpongeBob falls, and Squidward causes SpongeBob to land in a garbage can, which he dumps him out of before gloating "April Fools, you little sausage!"

Mr. Krabs says that there is some person in his office who wants to sell Squidward's art. Squidward immediately rushes to his office, only to find that it was a prank.
