Plot

Scooter visits the Krusty Krab and is curious of what he will be able to eat there. Squidward tells him that he hates everything on the menu. SpongeBob encourages him to try Coral Bits, and Scooter decides to choose it. He pulls out a dollar, and then Mr. Krabs goes really crazy and throws balloons and party-like behavior at the Krusty Krab. Soon, Mr. Krabs kicks everyone and Scooter out of the Krusty Krab. Then, he tells SpongeBob and Squidward that he will take them on a trip.

Squidward believes it is Bikini Bottom Folk Village, Fancy Springs, and Pamper Island. Soon, they realize they are going Clam Fishing. Squidward just wants to read his magazine. SpongeBob, however, is happily absent-mindedly grabbing things with his fishing hook to go Clam Fishing. First, it is Squidward's chair and magazine. Then he pulls the flag, Rescue Boat Inner Tube, and finally Mr. Krabs' 1 millionth dollar. Mr. Krabs begs SpongeBob to real the dollar back before the Clam comes.

The Giant Clam comes by and swallows Mr. Krabs' dollar. Mr. Krabs is now extremely sad, and cries like a baby. He sucks his tears, blubbers, and his eyes are faucets, until Squidward and SpongeBob decide to help Mr. Krabs get his dollar back. Mr. Krabs then says: "This is where Clam Fishing gets serious!" and they look out for three whole days without anything to eat. SpongeBob, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs grow beards, get sunburned, have darker color, get old faster, and Gary eats the sofa because he hasn't eaten anything in 3 days.

Soon, Squidward decides to give Mr. Krabs a dollar, and soon the three are happy again, until Mr. Krabs now realizes that the dollar is covered with a Coral Blue #3 Semi-Color Lipstick. Mr. Krabs continues crying, and uses SpongeBob and Squidward as bait using a Jaws like music. The Giant Clam appears, and then Mr. Krabs closes the music, and jumps onto the mouth of the Giant Clam. The Music Orchestra doors reopen again, entrapping Mr. Krabs. SpongeBob and Squidward cry because SpongeBob wishes he was taken, and Squidward cries because he is tied to SpongeBob and wishes it was SpongeBob who was taken away. Then Mr. Krabs shows up and tells them he made a deal by selling parts of his body to get the dollar back.
