Plot

SpongeBob uses his karate skills to make food when Patrick comes in to ask for a bucket full of cheese. Then, when he sees SponbgeBob doing karate, he wants to learn it, too. SpongeBob teaches Patrick the techniques of karate, but after several tries, SpongeBob tells him that he will never be successful. Angered, Patrick unwittingly chops a cinder block and SpongeBob is impressed. He is even more impressed when Patrick chops down an abandoned boat. SpongeBob tells Patrick that he's mastered karate, but warns him never to harm anyone with his new skill. Later, Patrick puts his chopping skills to the test, but takes it a little too far by unawaringly chopping everything it sees: buildings, an arcade machine, and even in front of an ice cream vendor. SpongeBob tries to stop Patrick from causing mayhem, but his arm seems to have a mind of its own. When Patrick destroys the Barg'n Mart, he blames his arm for crushing his best friend and rips it off. When SpongeBob finally comes to, he is shocked to find his friend's arm missing, but it regenerates back. Patrick then puts the Barg'n Mart back together when another Patrick comes in a karate chops a shopping cart. Patrick says that arms can regenerate bodies. After that, the Barg'n Mart collapses.
