==Transcript==
(Cold open. Patrick is an open field)
Patrick: where is she? She was supposed to be here 5 minutes ago. (Sigh)
Distant voice: hey, Patrick!
(Patrick sees Sandy running towards him)
Patrick: ah, Sandy! You're here! 
Sandy: did you tell the Feathered Friends you'll be absent?
Patrick: I told them I was wandering or gathering materials or something. I don't know.
Sandy: well, how's the Nitwits?
Patrick: they're doing fine. We made a member of The Rebels go insane so Bubble Bass can relocate to The Cult. I feel he'll do them good.
Sandy: that's great, Patrick! Say, what say you get The Nitwits over here so we can have a planning session?
Patrick: I'll phone em right now.
(A large shadowy figure creeps behind them as Patrick pulls out his phone)
Patrick: ugh, I'm getting a crappy signal. Well, that doesn't matter. We can still-
(Patrick bumps into the shadowy figure and Sandy and Patrick both scream as it engulfs them in a purple shadow. Show a brief shot of Sandy and Patrick dark purple with red eyes.)
(Cold open ends) 
(Episode begins with a fade-in of the Lodge. Squidward is pacing around the room. Fade to Crayon's lab, where Noseward is sitting)
Crayons: so, what are you saying about all these dreams?
Noseward: I dunno. These past few days I've had increasingly nightmarish visions.
Crayons: like what?
Noseward: they keep telling me about some alternate timeline and shit… like a timeline where we were destroyed in a long war. I also had a vision of the future about us getting destroyed.
Crayons: do you think Satan is behind this?
Noseward: i dunno. Could you check somehow?
(Crayons pulls out a large invention)
Crayons: this may pinch a bit.
(Cut to Squidward pacing back and forth as we hear Noseward screams "OW!")
Squidward: (speaking quietly) hmm… If we were to invent a super holy water gun- (Initiator walks in, and when he notices he screams and falls backwards) ow! Don't sneak up on me like that! Where'd you come from anyway?
Initiator: you looked bummed, Brother Squidward.
Squidward: I'm busy contemplating our next big contraption.
Initiator: (Sigh) Squidward, do you ever take a moment to breathe? Why are you always planning something? 
Squidward: we need to be ready! Do you want us to burn in the firey pits of Hell for all eternity?
Initiator: but, Dr Crayons is usually the one to get us ready! Why are you worrying? Take a break. Relax. We beat Satan pretty hard last week. Take a breather for all I care.
Squidward: (long sigh) I guess you're right. (Sits on throne)
Initiator: what's the matter? Why aren't you relaxing?
Squidward: oh, it's just… these past few months, I've been really coming to grip with the morality of my actions.
Initiator: oh, your actions aren't that bad.
Security: (walks in) he caused a mass genocide and ultimately doomed society.
Initiator: well, uh, I'm sure he couldn't do worse!
Security: uh-huh. (Walks off)
Initiator: (under his breath) jackass.
Squidward: I'm starting to think… maybe I deserve to rot in Hell.
(The whole Lodge gasps when they hear that)
Initiator: Squidward, what are you saying???
Squidward: I'm just saying. We've been through a lot these past 2 years. I deserve Hell for what I've done.
Initiator: but if you go to Hell, we lose!
Squidward: well, maybe-
(Suddenly, a strange note hits him in the head)
Squidward: OW! what in the Hell was that??? (He notices the note lodged in his skull, pulls it out) what's this here? (Reading note) "DEAR SQUIDWARD, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME. I FOUND OUT HOW TO WEAKEN SATAN. THE KEY IS…" 
Initiator: well? What's the key?
Squidward: it just ends there.
Initiator: wait, it just ends?
Squidward: yeah! Who couldve sent this? Hmmmmm…
(Cut to Crayon's lab while they're still talking. Crayons ear perks up and he zooms off)
Noseward: where are you going? 
Crayons: oh, I'll be back later!
(Cut back)
(Crayons suddenly runs in)
Crayons: need assistance?
(Squidward screams)
Squidward: dont do that! (Long sigh) I sorta need for you to try to find out where this note comes from. 
Crayons: a note? Lemme see. (grabs it out of Squidward's hand, reads silently) oh my! With this we could possibly fatally weaken Satan! Deciphering where this came from will be my #1 priority! 
Squidward: make it snappy! (Sits on  throne)
Noseward: (walks in) Crayons, what the Hell are you doing? We're supposed to be-
Crayons: we'll finish it later!(zooms off)
Noseward: but- (frustrated sigh)
Initiator: so what were you saying about Hell?
Squidward: I'm just tired of this long fight. I want to just go to Hell to end it all.
(Fade to the outside of the Lodge. Suddenly, Wormy, incased in a bubble. He taps on the window a couple of times, then goes for the front entrance)
Security: bored. (Notices Wormy) huh? What's that? Oh no… is that?!
(shows live action butterfly footage)
Security: THE MONSTER! THE MONSTER! IT'S BACK! OH MY NEPTUNE, IT'S BACK! (Screams at the top of his lungs, running inside)
(Cut to the inside of the Cult)
Squidward: Did you hear screaming?
Noseward: no. 
(Security runs in)
Security: THE MONSTER! IT'S BACK! THE MONSTER IS BACK! HIDE ME! (screams, jumps behind throne)
Squidward: what the hell are you talking about?
Security: (whispering) the monster! It'll eat us whole!
Squidward: you're delusional, man. Take him to the Cage for insane people, Initiator!
(Initiator is nowhere to be seen. Squidward audibly says "oh")
Squidward: uh, then you do it, Noseward.
Noseward: uh, that's full.
Squidward: it is? Huh. 
(Cut to Wormy entering the lodge)
(Cut back)
Squidward: Well, take him to the normal cage then until he snaps out of it.
Noseward: alright, sir. (Tries to pick up Security to no avail) where's our forklift.
Squidward: (notices Wormy in the distance) wait, what's that?
Noseward: (driving forklift) what's what?
Squidward: it looks like… A flying orange thing. Kinda like… oh no. (Flashback to when Squidward saw Wormy's face up close) no, no, Squiddy! Don't jump to conclusions! That monster's gone! (Turns around to face Noseward) Noseward, do you remember the… monster of Bikini Bottom that was going to eat everyone?
Noseward: (picking up Security with forklift) wait, the orange one?
Squidward: yeah. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but- (turns around, and Wormy's right in front of his face. He screams so loud the walls start cracking) IT'S THE MONSTER!!!!!!!!
Noseward: what the Hell are you talking about? There is no- (Wormy lands on his face, and he sees Wormy up close. He screams which makes the forklift tip over, injuring him)
Squidward: ATTENTION, EVERYONE!
(all the cult members look at Squidward)
Squidward: IT'S THE MONSTER!!!
(the Cult members all glance over at Wormy and after 3 seconds of staring at him, they all scream, running frantically in circles)
Squidward: EVERYONE! THROUGH THE FRONT ENTRANCE!
(all the cult members run towards the front, but Wormy flies in their way, so they all run the opposite direction)
Crayons: (walks in) Jeez, what the heck is all that screaming about? It's making it hard to trace this message! 
Squidward: THE MONSTER'S BACK!
Crayons: what monster? Is Satan controlling your minds again? (Wormy lands on his glasses, and he too sees Wormy close up. He screams and hits himself in the face with a fly swatter but Wormy flies away, narrowly avoiding it)
Squidward: Crayons, quit messing around and DO SOMETHING!
Crayons: uh, uh, uh, uh, take THIS! (throws a random object at Wormy, missing him)
Squidward: what the Hell did you throw?
Crayons: oh, just an important part of the machine I was using to trace the note back. (Pauses for 3 seconds) DAMNIT!
Squidward: so is it impossible to trace the message back?
Crayons: I'll have to put the piece back in. That'll take like… a few months. 
Squidward: please just get rid of this monster!
Crayons: I'm not going near that thing!
Squidward: hey, wait, I've got an idea! I'm gonna get Sandy to help! (Takes phone  out, dials Sandy' number)
(Cut to Sandy sleeping in a dark room, badly injured. The room is very messy, with broken jars and equipment everywhere. In Sandy's hand is a broken jar with a label mostly ripped off saying "Y." Sandy's phone begins ringing, but Sandy doesn't answer.)
(Cut back)
Squidward: Damnit, no response! I guess that means… Weve gotta take measures into our own hands!
Crayons: that's a suicide mission!
Squidward: but if we dont we're all dead to the hands of that monster!
Noseward: what can we do?
Squidward: Crayons, do you have anything else that can ward that monster off?
Crayons: I've got a vacuum cleaner.
(Cut to Crayons attempting to suck Wormy up in a vacuum but failing. Cut to him on the floor injured)
Crayons: ow.
Noseward: oh my god, wheres Initiator?! It ate the Initiator!
Squidward: uh, no, he just disappeared.
Crayons: Okay, i have a plan. On the count of 3, we all tiptoe to the front entrance, and I'll activate the poison gas security system. That'll kill the monster in seconds!
Squidward: wait, we have a poison gas security system? For how long?
Crayons: 2 years.
Squidward: and I'm only finding out about it now. We couldve won so many battles have I had known-
Crayons: now's not the time! We've gotta escape, or it's our lives! On the count of 3, we'll all quietly go towards the door. One… two- (all the cult members trample him in a stampede) OW!
(the Cult members run randomly through the Lodge)
Crayons: HEY, WHAT'RE YOU DOING?! THE DOOR IS THAT WAY!
Brother Squidward: nice going, Crayons. Now it'll be impossible to calm everyone down. (Long sigh, holds a jar of pickles) might as well have one last pickle before I die.
Crayons: wait, what's that?
Brother Squidward: uh, a pickle jar?
Crayons: dude, with that, we can trap the monster!
Brother Squidward: but I'm not done-
(Crayons empties the jar onto the ground)
Squidward: HEY, I WAS GONNA EAT THOSE!
Crayons: follow me! (They run off)
(Fade to them hiding and the rest of the cult behind a box. Crayons is holding a string that is tied to the jar's lid)
Crayons: (whispering) okay, when the monster goes into that jar, I'll pull this string which will make the jar close!
Squidward: how will it go in?
(Cut to a shot of the jar, and it's labeled "FREE MEAT!")
(cut back)
Crayons: it just will. Trust me.
(Crayons notices Wormy flying towards the jar. Crayons has full concentration on the jar as Wormy flutters all around it)
Noseward: uh, it's not going in.
Crayons: give it a minute! 
(Fade to 5 minutes later. Wormy is sitting next to the jar and the cult members are all tired, with Crayons sleeping. Wormy climbs on the top of the jar, and the second he goes on, Crayons suddenly wakes up and pulls the lid, trapping Wormy in the jar. All the cult members cheer in delight)
Crayons: WE DID IT! (picks up the jar) this beast is going on the shelf for further study!
Squidward: say, good work Crayons!
Crayons: thanks, Squidward! Ive got to get back to deciphering the letter we got. Then-
Squidward: but you destroyed it to attack the beast.
Crayons: damnit.
Noseward: but what about my vision therapy?
Crayons: well, Im sure I can do both therapy and rebuilding at once. What's the worst that can happen?
(Suddenly a cannon ball bursts through the wall, missing Squidward by just an inch)
Squidward: WHAT THE HELL?! 
Crayons: are we under attack?!
(3 more cannonballs burst through the wall, and 2 of them hit Lodge members, killing them)
Squidward: is that satan?!
(Cut to a shot of the outside. Squidward glances through the hole, and lets out a worried gasp)
Crayons: well, what is it?
Squidward: it's them.
Crayons: it's who? (Stares out the window and has a shocked look on his face)
(Zoom out to reveal a sea of red marching towards the Lodge, which is revealed to be the Krusty Komrades marching towards them, chanting "KRUSTY KOMRADES!". There are 4 cannons visible. Zoom into Krabs)
Krabs: KOMRADES, LET'S SHOW THESE F(dolphin noise)ERS WHO'S BOSS!
(the komrades all cheer. Cut back to Squidward)
Squidward: well, everyone… Prepare for battle.
