Plot: The episode begins with Patrick being invited to his fellow classmate Barbra with long hair in pigtails at her birthday party. He decides to get a job so as to be able to afford a gift, and becomes a paper boy. Jenkins, and elderly man on Patrick's paper route tries to become friends with him, while making many sexual innuendos. Patrick makes a fool of himself at Barbra's party, concluding "I'm so awkward."
When Patrick is witness to a robbery at a convenience store, he's brought in to finger the criminal. SpongeBob comes in, looking for his friend, and mistakenly shows a picture of Patrick to the criminals in the lineup. When the robber escapes, he declares that he plans to "kill Patrick Star."
The FBI decides to relocate the gang to Bumblescum in the deep South, where each member of the gang find their own challenges fitting in with Southern society. Patrick befriends a child named Sam, until SpongeBob insults the South for questioning their own version of re-enacting the Cilvil War, and Sam's father orders them not to spend time together. Sam kisses Patrick before leaving, thoroughly bewildering him. Patrick then discovers that Sam is a girl. Despite some hesitation, they start to enter a relationship.
Meanwhile, the robber, having tricked the FBI agents into giving away Patrick's new address, reaches the deep South. About to kill Patrick, he is stopped by the newly appointed sheriff, SpongeBob (aka Sheriff T Ho***r). SpongeBob discovers, however, that his gun is empty, and Sam's father comes to the rescue and shoots the criminal.
The gang return to Bikini Bottom, causing a bit of a heartbreak for Patrick and Sam. The gang return to discover 113 messages on their answering machine, all from Jenkins, who wants to know what happened to the paper boy.
