Plot

SpongeBob is playing a game of friendly tag with Gary. The Patrick comes along and gets introduced to Gary to Patrick. The game continues until Gary starts traveling around Patrick. And they have a sleep-over together. The next morning, Gary does not want to leave Patrick and SpongeBob wants to earn Gary's respect but it does not work.

Out of jealousy, SpongeBob gets a new pet, just to show to Gary that he does not mind Gary not being with him. SpongeBob tries to earn him back by giving him things like a ball, snail nip and other things although it does not work. At first, he gets Rex, a worm. He also leaves him while SpongeBob was blabber mouthing. Next, he gets Lary, who is very rude and arrogant and always yelled and bossed SpongeBob around. For example: he made SpongeBob sleep on the floor and did not have a sense of humor. He also leaves him. Then SpongeBob compares Lary and Gary and then he compares Lary and Gary to Jerry, who was a real garden snail! That is kept in his pocket.

Later, when Patrick does his laundry, at SpongeBob's house, SpongeBob cries and tries to earn back Gary's respect. But then Gary crawls in to the washing machine and Patrick thinks that Gary liked him for his shorts, but SpongeBob finds out that Gary only wanted the cookie that was inside Patrick's pocket. As SpongeBob and Gary, now reunited, go outside for a walk, a heartbroken Patrick stares after them and shouts, "Gary? I thought what we had was special!"
