Dialogue

(episode begins at The Reef. Squidward is drinking soda loudly. SpongeBob and Patrick walk in, both holding popcorn buckets)

SpongeBob: Hi, Squidward! Bet you can’t guess what movie we’re gonna see. (Squidward continues to drink his soda loudly) That’s OK! I’ll tell ya! It’s Fisher--

Squidward: (interrupts with his drinking before finishing) You may speak.

SpongeBob: Patrick and I are gonna see Fisherman 4!

Squidward: Ha! You two won’t sleep a week tonight if you see that movie.

SpongeBob: Squidward, you are looking at two very grown-up big boys.

Patrick: Yeah, nothing can scare us.

Squidward: (softly) Boo. (SpongeBob and Patrick scream and run off. Laughs nasally. SpongeBob and Patrick stop running and calm down for a bit)

SpongeBob: We’ll show Squidward we’re not afraid of any old movie! (bubble-wipe to them entering the theater’s auditorium. It darkens)

SpongeBob and Patrick: (as theater darkens) Woah!

Patric:k I’m lost.

SpongeBob: I wish I had a flashlight! (a light turns on. Camera zooms out to reveal the light is coming from an anglerfish who works at the theater)

Cinema Anglerfish: Take your seats! (SpongeBob and Patrick scream and jump into two empty seats nearby)

SpongeBob: Seats taken, sir. Ooh, the movie’s starting! (he and Patrick eat popcorn. On the theater screen, as a short dramatic tune plays, a parody of the MPAA’s "green band" card used for trailers appears, stating that the film is rated "S" for "Scary." After a few seconds, the film’s title card appears as the camera zooms in. Lightning strikes, scaring SpongeBob and Patrick. The movie begins with children playing on a playground. Two children are on a seesaw, laughing. Cut back to SpongeBob and Patrick)

SpongeBob: So this isn’t too scary. (cut back to the movie. The fisherman’s hook lowers itself near the mouth of one of the children. Cut back to SpongeBob and Patrick. Offscreen, the child is heard briefly "choking," for lack of a better term, and then screaming, suggesting that the fisherman has caught him. SpongeBob and Patrick scream) The fisherman’s got him!

Patrick: He’ll fry them into fish sticks! I can’t watch! Is the scary part over?

SpongeBob: Hold on, I’ll take a peek. (cut back to the movie. Two teenage fish, an unnamed boy and a girl named Jennifer sit on a bench)

Teenage Boy: Thank you for meeting me, Adrina, at midnight.

SpongeBob: Patrick, it’s OK.

Patrick: You sure? (screams) It’s worse! (cut back to the movie. The boy and Jennifer share a kiss) They’re kissing!

Teenage Boy: I love you, Susie.

Jennifer: Uh, it’s Jennifer.

Teenage Boy: (as he speaks, the fisherman’s hook lowers itself) I’ll never leave you... Jennifer. (hook catches the boy by his pants. The fisherman pulls him toward the surface. Cut to the boy being pulled away as the camera pans upward to follow him) Goodbye, Margaret! (the fisherman, who is seen as a silhouette seated on a boat, pulls the boy out of the ocean)

SpongeBob and Patrick: THE FISHERMAN!

Fish in movie theater: Come on! (annoyed chatter from the audience is heard)

SpongeBob: Sorry, sorry, sorry. (picks up his popcorn bucket. He and Patrick notice something on the screen and scream, then hide in their seats. Time card appears)

French Narrator: Two hours later...

Patrick: Let’s see if it’s safe. (he and SpongeBob peek out of their seats. On the screen, a "THE END" card is shown while a final dramatic tune plays)

SpongeBob: Aw, the movie’s over.

Patrick: Aw, dang! We hardly even saw it!
