Plot: On December 31, 1999, a costumed man warns SpongeBob about the dangers of Y2K. SpongeBob locks his friends up in a bomb shelter (basement) that evening. A nuclear holocaust occurs at the stroke of midnight, destroying much of Bikini Bottom and mutating or injuring many of the surviving citizens. The gang are free from mutations.
When food runs out, the gang travel to Natick, Sea Massachussetts, in hopes that the Twinke" (spelt "Twinkees" throughout the episode, due to copyright) factory survived. On the way, Plankton is exposed to nuclear waste and later mutates into a octopus-like creature. Upon their arrival at Natick, they establish a town, dubbed New Bikini Bottom, which SpongeBob mismanages into chaos. Octopus Plankton notices that he has put on some weight, and then begins to lay eggs.
SpongeBob is eventually kicked out of the town he founded, and his friends follow him, deciding where they should go next: a Carvel factory in Framingham, Sea Massachusetts. Meanwhile, Plankton's spawn hatch, and begin to kill the New Bikini Bottom citizens.
The episode ends in a live-action parody of a famous episode of Dallas, where Pam Ewing wakes to find her husband Bobby in the shower. She tells him about the episode, which was apparently a dream. This is a parody of the famous Dallas shower scene, where an entire previous season of Dallas was revealed as a dream

==Reception==
Ahsan Haque of IGN rated the episode a 10/10, saying "Overall, this episode easily ranks as one of the best in the series. Almost every joke succeeds, and the far-fetched alternate reality storyline thoroughly entertains. Despite the fact that all of the events in the episode are revealed to be a dream, it doesn't take away from the high degree of amusement provided.
