Plot

At Mr. Krabs' house, Pearl is frantically packing for a visit to Squidina's house. Krabs, who has games scheduled with GrandPat, tells her to hurry up. When Pearl arrives, she sees that Patrick's show is already on. GrandPat mocks Krabs for being late, and the family heads inside. Squidina meets up with Pearl, excited to go on the show. She goes on-stage and does a juggling act, but mistakenly picks up Ouchie, who had gotten into her juggling balls. The audience is unimpressed, and Pearl messes up her act, running off-stage and crying. Squidina fails to reassure her, making her cry even harder.

Meanwhile, GrandPat and Mr. Krabs are playing a card game. Krabs brags about his time in the navy while GrandPat tells him about his time in the army. The two compare their cards, and Krabs has won, taking all the items they had bet. GrandPat challenges him to another game, double or nothing. After Patrick performs, Pearl does a rollerblading act to music. Seeing that the audience is bored, she increases her speed, but finds it hard to keep up and fails, going backstage with Squidina again.

GrandPat and Krabs play a game of "Shuffle Stuff," a form of cricket where they knock items into holes. After comparing their war injuries, Krabs wins the game, and GrandPat challenges him to another one. Back on the Patrick Show, Patrick does a basketball act. Pearl walks up, wearing a robe, and starts singing a slow song. The song picks up in tempo, making the audience dance, and Krabs joins in. GrandPat goes atop his house and prepares to catapult a piano at Krabs. However, the rope gets caught on his leg, sending him with it.

GrandPat's piano crashes into the set, creating a crater and injuring the audience. Pearl is worried at first, but it turns out that the audience did like her song, and they cheer for her. Squidina and Patrick compliment Pearl, planning to put her on the show again, and Krabs is proud of her. GrandPat, dazed and with piano keys sticking out of his mouth, tries to challenge Krabs to another game. As the episode ends, Pearl's ventriloquist dummy, which she had used for the song, plays the keys.
