Plot

SpongeBob was cleaning the inside of his house. While doing so, he left his pants inside the laundry machine. Meanwhile, Patrick suddenly called and asked SpongeBob if he could guess how long he could keep looling (lool-lool-lool...). Later, SpongeBob asked Gary if he could put his laundry inside the dryer. Much later, Patrick finally stopped looling. And as SpongeBob came to check on his laundry, his square pants shrunk and was forced to buy a new one.

At the mall, there wasn't any square pants available so SpongeBob tried various kinds of pants and picked a circular pants similar to his old ones. On the way home, SpongeBob saw Patrick. SpongeBob approached him but Patrick didn't recognized him with his new pants and SpongeBob was asked by Patrick to be left alone. Meanwhile, Sandy suddenly saw SpongeBob and referred to him as a strange and called him "SpongeBob FancyPants". SpongeBob then decides to go to Squidward's because he was confident that Squidward will remember still him.

As SpongeBob walks towards Squidward's house, Squidward saw him coming and pretended to not know him at all. SpongeBob was disappointed that non of his friends recognizes him. SpongeBob then, heads to his house. The door was locked and forgot the keys in his other pants. SpongeBob tried to call Gary's attention but Patrick was the one who opened the door, and SpongeBob was rejected in his own house. Because of that experience, SpongeBob decided to start a new life.

SpongeBob decided to apply for a job at the Krusty Krab as "SpongeBob RoundPants". SpongeBob asked if Squidward show him how things work at the Krusty Krab and SpongeBob acts as if he hasn't work in that restaurant before. SpongeBob tries to do and jot down what Squidward does. Later, Mr. Krabs spotted SpongeBob and Squidward sleeping. Mr. Krabs could still recognized him and told SpongeBob having circular pants doesn't change who he is. SpongeBob explained that he can't be SpongeBob SquarePants if he is wearing circular pants. Mr. Krabs then asked SpongeBob who gave him that idea and SpongeBob pointed at Patrick while Patrick was about to gulp down a Krabby Patty. Mr. Krabs then advised him to take off his pants if that was the case. So Sandy called him SpongeBob UnderPants.
