Plot

It starts with Patchy opening the book, 'The Legend of SpongeBob SquarePants'. The story (in the form of a rhyming poem) then follows what happens in the book. SpongeBob happily works in the Krusty Krab kitchen, when Squidward walks in with a large machine made to cook Krabby Patty instantly. Mr. Krabs asks Squidward what the machine is, and Squidward answers, "A miracle, a marvel! It'll cook Krabby Patties at a fabulous pace!" Squidward wanted to trade SpongeBob for the faster and cheaper machine. Mr. Krabs is about to fire SpongeBob, but SpongeBob then burst through the door, challenging the Machine to a cook off. After both have finished their first batch of patties, Squidward broke the machine's lever, causing it to malfunction. SpongeBob got the upper hand, with the Patty Gadget shooting out patties by 2s and by 3s until the machine exploded. As the crowd cheered, SpongeBob fell with exhaustion and he drops his spatula, making it seem like SpongeBob had died. The next scene shows a funeral with Squidward the saddest one there. Surprisingly, SpongeBob walks up to the grave and dances on it. This is when we discover that the funeral was for Squidward's machine, not for SpongeBob. Patchy then closes the book, ending the episode.

Story

• Patchy: "Now, SpongeBob was workin'. His eye on the grill till he heard a sharp sound that gave him a chill."
• SpongeBob: "What's going on? What could it mean?
• Patchy: "Wow, it's a deep-fry patty cook machine. And hiding behind it, who do we see? None other than Squidward and his bad face acne."
• Mr. Krabs: "What's is this contraption you've hauled into me place?"
• Squidward: "A miracle, a marvel. It'll cook Krabby Patties at a fabulous pace."
• Mr. Krabs: "But how are the patties? I mean, how do they taste?"
• Squidward: I'll let you try one. Shove this in your face."
• Mr. Krabs: "I have to admit, that patty was yummy. Though it sits like a rock when it lands in me tummy. But I've already got a fry cook and he's always on time."
• Squidward: "Ah, but this gizmo is faster and won't pay it a dime."
• Mr. Krabs: "Your machine sounds delightful. But how much does it cost?"
• Squidward: "Hmm, just fire SpongeBob and tell him get lost."
• Patchy: "This machine wanted a job to make SpongeBob quit. But SpongeBob didn't like it. No, not one bit. Pushing his grill, SpongeBob burst through the door."
• SpongeBob: "I challenge your gadget; I declare patty war!"
• Patchy: "With 3 little words, Krabs started the show. His flag in the air, he cried-"
• Mr. Krabs: "Ready, set, go!"
• Patchy: "Quick as a flash, Squidward pulled the big lever and then sat back feeling oh, so quite clever. SpongeBob, with spatula held tight with his fist flung twenty patties, not a single one missed. The crowd was VERY impressed. They cheered full of glee. All except Patrick, who had to go pee. A noise and a clatter came from that machine, and out popped the patties in a burst of hot steam. The gadget was fast, its first batch completed, but SpongeBob yelled out-"
• SpongeBob: "I won't be defeated!"
• Patchy: "He took in some air. SpongeBob swelled his physique. And dozens of patties filled up in his cheeks. He strained and he sweated, he summoned his will. And shot Krabby Patties all on the grill."
• Squidward: "Not bad!"
• Patchy: "Yelled out Squidward."
• Squidward: "A really good try. But let's see how you do against my machine set on high."
• Patchy: "The gizmo, it shuddered. It crackled, it shook! And as Squidward laughed:"
• Squidward: "Ha, ha."
• Patchy: "Sandy said:"
• Sandy: "What a schnook."
• Patchy: "But SpongeBob cried out-"
• SpongeBob: "I won't lose to that thing!"
• Patchy: "Then he held up two spatulas and leapt like a spring. His hands were a blur, the patties went flying. He fried up a hundred without even trying. Squidward was worried. SpongeBob couldn't be beat."
• Squidward: "I got one last chance, I'll turn up the heat!"
• Patchy: "He struggled and strained 'til his face turned dark blue. Then the lever moved forward and broke right in two. The gadget buckled and sparked. It cracked like a gun. So Squidward took off, yelling:"
• Squidward: "Let me know if I won!"
• Patchy: "Lightning flew from its maw. It looked ready to burst. But SpongeBob, still standing, yelled..."
• SpongeBob: "Foul beast, do your worst!"
• Patchy: "The patties came flying, by twos and be threes. By dozens, by hundreds, oh, it was something to see. Aye,that machine, it was fast, but SpongeBob was faster. He proved to that thing that he was its master. The gadget blew into bits and died with a boom. The blast was so loud that it woke King Neptune. It was all over, finished and done. With his head held up high, SpongeBob knew he had won. The crowd yelled "Hooray, Squidward's name is now mud!" But as they were cheering, SpongeBob fell with a thud. The service was short. Tears shed with regret. Squidward, it seemed, was the one most upset. What's that? You thought SpongeBob was buried down there? They just buried the gadget. Ha-ha, this I swear."
