Plot

SpongeBob has a dream that he is in a hot rod and he got his driver's license. Mrs. Puff also appears in this dream and tears out SpongeBob's license, and right after he is somehow 'propelled' out of his own dream cloud, he sees his real self. He realizes that he has no dream to go to, until he sees Gary's dream cloud. He jumps in, frightening Gary. He is in a vast library, and Gary appears to be humanoid and can speak English. SpongeBob goes out of Gary's dream cloud and into Patrick's. He is on a kiddie ride that costs 25 cents per ride. SpongeBob explains to him that in a dream, he can do whatever he wants. He demonstrates by turning into a skyscraper and making a million identical copies of himself. Patrick says he is already satisfied, and SpongeBob goes out of Patrick's dream cloud. Patrick then complains that he has run out of quarters. (This could be a hint towards Patrick's empty-mindedness.) Next, he goes to Squidward's dream cloud and sees what is going on. He is performing a clarinet solo in a theater, set in the 1700s because of the theme. He distracts the king and Squidward stops, and the king growls at him for not playing. After this happens several times, Squidward gets angry and snaps his clarinet, but SpongeBob saves him by turning into a clarinet. It produces no sound, but SpongeBob just sings, and everybody applauds. SpongeBob goes to a different dream, this time Sandy's. They are skydiving, and they have to land on a painted target. SpongeBob asks if it is safe, and Sandy says it is safe so long as he has a parachute. However, SpongeBob misinterprets this, and Sandy lands hard in a truck. SpongeBob decides to stop invading other's dreams. He goes to what he thinks is Mr. Krabs' dream, but actually is Pearl's dream. After realizing this, he immediately goes to Mr. Krabs' dream, where he's fishing money. SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs manage to catch Moby Dollar, but it escapes and SpongeBob is shot out of Mr. Krabs' dream cloud and into Plankton's. Plankton, in his dream, is bigger than the buildings and has laser-eyes. SpongeBob, misinterpreting this to be a nightmare, pokes him with a pin and Plankton deflates, and wakes up. SpongeBob then goes back to his own dream cloud, where everyone's angry faces appear and start spinning around him. When he wakes up, everyone is in his house complaining that he has ruined all of their dreams, until Patrick comes up and asks "Does anyone have a quarter?" because of his dream. standing at a pathetic 8 inches tall, you realize your the size of Sarah's baby alive doll. Looking up you see Sarah smiling evilly over you, and her giant arms reach to pick you up. You run for all your worth towards the other room, but only half way there you feel yourself being picked up. "Now. Lets play house. You be the baby and we'll be your mommies. First we need to get you dressed." With a vice grip on you, Sarah carries you to her doll changing table and lays you down. You try to get up but she holds you down with one hand. "Mommy Milly, will you hold the baby so I can dress him? Mommy Sally will you get the baby's bottle ready?" Sally leaves and you feel Milly hold you down as Sarah rips your clothes off of you. "Such a tiny baby!" Your sister coos at you. "woah!" suddenly something cold hits your butt and you groan as you realize its baby cream. Next comes the baby powder and you realize that you must now smell like a baby. The diaper is off your sisters baby alive doll,bulky around your hips. As she fastens your new diaper on Milly lets go for a second and comes back with a bonnet, booties and a bib, all a baby blue color and off the baby alive doll. Sarah smiles and puts your new wardrobe on. When the eight year old mommies are done, they hold you up and admire their work. "He's the cutest baby doll ever!" Milly squealed "And he's all ours! Forever and ever!" You feel the room spin as she says this, FOREVER?! "One more thing!" Sarah reaches over and grabs a plastic pacifier, and before you can protest shoves it into your face. "There. Now time for a baby's bottle," Sarah said.

Sarah then got one out. She filled it with a white liquid. Then they put the nipple to your lips.

You put your lips around the nipple as you were a bit hungry. You started to drink the liquid. It turned out the liquid was.
