[INT. BIKINI BOTTOM - DAY The residents of Bikini Bottom gather around their televisions, eagerly awaiting the latest news. Suddenly, the screen flickers to life, revealing Perch Perkins, the esteemed news anchor of Bikini Bottom News.]
Perch Perkins: This is a Bikini Bottom News Flash! We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming with breaking news! Ladies and gentlemen, I have just received confirmation that Joe Biden has emerged victorious in the election!
[SpongeBob, unable to contain his emotions, starts running frantically in circles, screaming at the top of his lungs.]
SpongeBob: [hysterical] Nooo! This can't be happening! Aaaah!
[SpongeBob, in a state of utter distress, paces back and forth across the room, his frantic footsteps echoing against the walls. His piercing screams reverberate through the house, reaching the ears of his trusted companion, Gary the Snail.]
Gary: [slithering up to SpongeBob] Meow... SpongeBob, calm down! Meow...
[SpongeBob halts his manic run and gazes down at Gary, his eyes filled with tears and frustration.]
SpongeBob: Gary, don't you understand? Our democracy is crumbling! The election was stolen! We're living in a pineapple under a fraudulent regime!
[Gary, surprisingly, lifts his head and narrows his eyes, his snail brain concocting an intriguing theory.]
Gary: Meow... SpongeBob, think about it. Who lives in a pineapple? You do! And who's in power now? That's right, Joe Biden! It's all part of an elaborate plot to undermine you!
[SpongeBob's eyes widen, a glimmer of hope flickering amidst the chaos.]
SpongeBob: [excitedly] You're right, Gary! They're trying to silence me, but I won't let them! I'll become a right-wing commentator, exposing the truth about this underwater conspiracy! Fox News, here I come!
[INT. PATRICK'S ROCK - LIVING ROOM - DAY Patrick, slumped on his couch, stares blankly at the television screen, his teary eyes fixed on a news program of questionable taste. The show, known as "Bikini Bottom's After Dark," provides a sensationalized and often scandalous take on current events. A sultry news anchor appears on the screen, her voice dripping with dramatic flair.]

Patrick: [letting out a gut-wrenching scream]
[The walls of Patrick's rock tremble, the very foundation of his sanity crumbling under the weight of his overwhelming emotions. His breakdown reaches a crescendo, an eruption of despair that transcends all comprehension.]
Patrick: [teary-eyed] If our guy didn't win, what's the point? Goodbye, cruel world!
[A sinister smile creeps across Patrick's face, a dark revelation dawning upon him. With a sudden burst of energy, he springs from the couch, a man possessed by a newfound purpose.]
[INT. PATRICK'S ROCK - SECRET BASEMENT - CONTINUOUS We descend into the depths of Patrick's rock, revealing a secret chamber hidden away from prying eyes. Illuminated by dim red lights, the walls are adorned with newspaper clippings, conspiracy theories, and cryptic symbols. Patrick stands at the center, his teary eyes now gleaming with a distorted determination. He speaks into a hidden microphone, his voice laced with twisted conviction.]
Patrick: If the system fails us, then I shall become its downfall. The world shall tremble in the wake of my wrath. Farewell, Bikini Bottom, for I have chosen a darker path.
[As Patrick dons a cloak of malevolence, his transformation complete, he activates a control panel embedded with buttons marked with names of prominent figures in Bikini Bottom. The room reverberates with an eerie hum, foreshadowing the impending chaos Patrick is about to unleash.]
[INT. SQUIDWARD'S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY Squidward, already teetering on the precipice of sanity, stumbles upon the news of Joe Biden's victory. The TV blares in the background, relaying the earth-shattering news. The camera zooms in on Squidward's face, capturing the flicker of disbelief that transforms into a wicked grin.]
Squidward: [disoriented] No... No! How can this be? Ha! Ha! Ha!
[As if possessed by some unseen force, Squidward's laughter escalates into a maniacal crescendo. He clutches his head, the sound of his own laughter reverberating through his fractured mind.]
Squidward: Ha! Ha! Ha! This world has driven me mad! I belong in a padded cell!
[Squidward's laughter devolves into sobs, the lines between laughter and anguish blurred in his tormented state. He collapses onto the floor, the weight of reality crushing his spirit. Shadows dance around him, an embodiment of his distorted perception.]
[Moments later, the scene shifts abruptly. Mental health professionals clad in white coats rush into Squidward's house, their presence a stark contrast to the chaos that surrounds him. With gentle yet firm hands, they carefully lift Squidward from the floor and guide him towards the exit.]
Mental health professional: [softly] Squidward, it's time for us to help you. We're here for your well-being.
[The mental health professionals lead Squidward out of his house]
[INT. SANDY'S TREEHOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY Sandy, her frustration mounting, sits in front of the TV, fixated on a controversial news program called "The Unfiltered Truth." The program's host, a charismatic and polarizing figure, delivers the news of Joe Biden's victory with an audacious spin, igniting a fiery determination within Sandy.]
News anchor: Folks, it's official! Joe Biden's triumph has left us in awe. But for some, this victory remains a bitter pill to swallow. Let's explore the fallout!
[Sandy's eyes narrow, her resolve solidifying amidst the chaos unfolding on the screen. In a swift motion, she rises from her seat, determination etched across her face.]
Sandy: [determined] If this country can't appreciate true greatness, then I'm taking my talents to Bosnia and Herzegovina!
[Sandy storms into her bedroom, a whirlwind of activity. She flings open drawers, tossing clothes and personal items into a suitcase with reckless abandon. Her actions mirror the chaos within her heart, a tempest of emotions driving her forward.]
[Sandy, her suitcase in hand, arrives at the bus station. Without a second thought, she purchases a one-way ticket to Bosnia and Herzegovina. The bus looms before her, its doors invitingly open, ready to whisk her away from the life she once knew.]
[Sandy boards the bus, her departure abrupt and unannounced. She leaves behind only a handwritten note, hastily taped to the door of her treedome. The note reads: "Gone to chase my dreams where they'll be appreciated. Don't worry about me. - Sandy"]
[As the bus pulls away, Sandy gazes out the window, the familiar sight of Bikini Bottom fading into the distance. Her journey to Bosnia and Herzegovina begins, a testament to the power of disillusionment and the unyielding spirit that drives her forward.]
[INT. SPONGEBOB'S PINEAPPLE - LIVING ROOM - DAY SpongeBob, fueled by a mix of determination and fervor, sets his sights on a new path. With a spark of inspiration, he grabs his trusty spatula and positions himself in front of his computer. The room transforms into a makeshift headquarters of political activism, adorned with posters of liberty and flags of patriotism.]
[SpongeBob opens a presentation software and eagerly begins crafting a PowerPoint titled "The Krusty Truth: Unveiling the Deep State of Bikini Bottom." Each slide brims with meticulously researched theories and mind-boggling connections, all aimed at exposing a hidden world lurking beneath the surface.]

SpongeBob's eyes gleam with unwavering conviction as he presents his findings, punctuating each revelation with animated gestures and a charismatic tone.]
SpongeBob: You see, Tucker, jellyfishes are not as innocent as they appear! They are the secret agents of the Illuminati, spreading their mind-controlling tentacles throughout Bikini Bottom. The truth is right under our noses, lurking beneath the currents of the sea!
Tucker Carlson: [raising an eyebrow] Fascinating, SpongeBob. Tell me more about these jellyfish operatives.
[SpongeBob launches into a passionate monologue, drawing intricate webs of conspiracies and connecting dots that only he can perceive. His words echo through the imaginary studio, his enthusiasm infectious.]

[INT. BIKINI BOTTOM - DAY SpongeBob, wearing an expression of anticipation, approaches Patrick's rock. He knocks on the door with enthusiasm, but there is no answer.]
SpongeBob: [excited] Hey, Patrick! Guess what? I've got some exciting news to share!
[Perplexed, SpongeBob tries knocking again, this time with a touch of concern. Still, no response. SpongeBob's next stop is Squidward's house. He walks over and rings the doorbell, waiting expectantly. However, the only sound that greets him is the echo of his own voice.]
SpongeBob: Squidward, my friend, I've got something amazing to tell you! Where are you?
[Undeterred, SpongeBob makes his way to Sandy's treedome. He approaches the door, excitement building within him. He knocks, but there is no answer. He calls out Sandy's name, his voice echoing through the treedome's empty silence.]
SpongeBob: [concerned] Sandy? Are you there? I've got incredible news, and I can't wait to share it with you!
[As SpongeBob turns to leave Sandy's treedome, he notices a note attached to the door. Curiosity piques his interest, and he reads it with a mix of surprise and understanding.]
SpongeBob: [reading the note aloud] "Gone to chase my dreams where they'll be appreciated. Don't worry about me. - Sandy" [Feeling a mix of sadness and excitement, SpongeBob gazes at the note for a moment, understanding Sandy's decision. He folds it carefully and tucks it into his pocket, assuring himself that Sandy is embarking on a new adventure.]
[With a determined smile, SpongeBob looks around, contemplating his next move. A light bulb moment strikes him, and he sets off towards the Krusty Krab.]
[INT. KRUSTY KRAB - DAY SpongeBob pushes open the doors of the Krusty Krab, his cheerful demeanor momentarily overshadowed by a sense of curiosity mixed with trepidation. To his surprise, he is greeted by a scene of chaos and tension. A group of Joe Biden supporting fish huddle near the counter, their faces contorted with anger.]
FISH #1: [yelling] Mr. Krabs, you greedy capitalist! You're ruining Bikini Bottom!
FISH #2: We won't stand for your oppressive business practices anymore!
[SpongeBob's eyes widen as he observes the heated exchange between the fish and Mr. Krabs, who stands behind the counter, his face twisted in anger.]
Mr. Krabs: [furious] Get out of my restaurant, you mindless sheep! I won't let you ruin me livelihood!
[Suddenly, the confrontation takes a chilling turn. Mr. Krabs, driven to a breaking point, reaches beneath the counter, revealing an assault rifle. With a maniacal glint in his eyes, he opens fire on the fish, chaos erupting in a hail of bullets.]
[The air fills with screams and cries of panic as the restaurant transforms into a battleground. Tables and chairs topple over, shattered by the frenzied gunfire. The fish scramble for cover, their pleas for mercy drowned out by the deafening sound of violence.]
FISH #3: Holy shit! What the fuck is happening? We need to get out of here!
FISH #4: Someone call the police! This is fucking madness!
FISH #5: [crying] I just wanted a fucking Krabby Patty, not a goddamn war zone!
[The restaurant becomes a scene of mayhem and fear. Customers dive behind overturned tables, desperately seeking shelter from the hailstorm of bullets. The once familiar and welcoming space is now a battleground, stained with blood and shattered dreams.]
FISH #6: [yelling] Mr. Krabs has lost his fucking mind! We trusted him!
FISH #7: This is not the Krusty Krab I remember. What the fuck has this place become?
FISH #8: [angry] Fuck this shit! I'm never coming back here again!
FISH #9: [furious] I can't believe I supported this greedy bastard for so long! I'm done with this place!
FISH #10: [yelling] Mr. Krabs, you deluded, money-hungry prick! We're outta here, and we'll never spend a fucking dime at this dump again!
[The fish, seething with resentment, storm out of the Krusty Krab in unison, their departure punctuated by slamming doors and a resounding chorus of profanity-laden insults directed at the bewildered Mr. Krabs.]
Mr. Krabs: Go ahead, ye liberal sheep! Run away! I don't need any of ya! Good riddance, ya bunch of bleeding-heart idiots!
[The scene transitions to the Chum Bucket, which has undergone a remarkable transformation. The once-desolate restaurant now teems with life as former Krusty Krab customers have flocked to Plankton's establishment, now proudly renamed the "Liberal Bucket."]
Plankton: Welcome, welcome, my liberal comrades! Step right into the newly christened Liberal Bucket, where we celebrate progress and compassion! Go Joe, go!
[The customers, wearing smiles of satisfaction, gather around Plankton, enticed by the promise of a different kind of dining experience. Plankton, seizing the opportunity, passionately extols the virtues of Joe Biden and his progressive agenda.]
Plankton: Friends, let us embrace unity and equality! In the spirit of Joe Biden, we offer a menu that satisfies not only your hunger but also your desire for social change! Indulge in the "Biden Burger," a symbol of hope and resilience! Try our "Build Back Better Bowl," a flavorful tribute to progress and prosperity!
[The customers, enthralled by Plankton's impassioned speech, cheer and applaud. They eagerly place their orders, relishing the opportunity to support a restaurant that aligns with their political values.]
[EXT. BIKINI BOTTOM - THE KRUSTY KRAB - DAY The air crackles with tension as the Liberal Bucket thrives, drawing the attention of both Plankton's newfound supporters and those loyal to Mr. Krabs. Through the windows of the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs witnesses the success of his rival's establishment. Filled with rage, he clutches his assault rifle tightly, his knuckles turning white.]
Mr. Krabs: [fuming] Those liberal scum think they can steal me customers and me money! Well, I'll show 'em!
[Without hesitation, Mr. Krabs opens fire, his shots shattering the windows of the Krusty Krab. Chaos erupts as Plankton, his customers, and Krusty Krab patrons scramble for cover, shrieks and cries piercing the air.]
Plankton: [defiantly] You thought you could take us down, Krabs? We won't be silenced! We're fighting for a cause!
[Amidst the chaos, Plankton and his customers find refuge behind overturned tables and scattered condiment stations. The sound of gunfire reverberates, punctuated by the occasional crash of shattered glass.]
Mr. Krabs: You think you're the voice of the people, Plankton? Well, I'll shut you up for good!
[As the chaotic scene unfolds with bullets flying and the clash of rivals intensifying, SpongeBob finds himself at the back of the Krusty Krab, his face etched with confusion and concern. He mutters to himself, caught in the throes of his own misguided beliefs.]
SpongeBob: [muttering] This can't be happening! It's all because of Biden! He's dividing the country, I tell ya! Trump won, I know it! [His words blend with the cacophony of chaos, drowned out by the shouts and gunfire that pierce the air.] If only people could see the truth! Biden hasn't even been inaugurated, but he's already causing chaos! Trump would've kept us united! If only they'd listen... if only they'd see what I see. Trump is the answer. He would've made everything right!
[The scene transitions to the Fox News studio, where the notorious Tucker Carlson sits across from SpongeBob, ready to delve into the bewildering events that have unfolded in Bikini Bottom. SpongeBob, his eyes filled with conviction, takes a deep breath before sharing his skewed perspective with the world.]
Tucker Carlson: SpongeBob, it's an honor to have you here tonight. You've witnessed quite a series of events. Tell us, what exactly do you think has caused this turmoil in Bikini Bottom?
SpongeBob: Tucker, it all goes back to the election. Joe Biden's victory has shattered our community. Squidward is now confined to a mental hospital, Sandy has left for Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Patrick... Well, he vanished, leaving us all in shock. It's a direct result of the chaos unleashed by this election. I firmly believe that Joe Biden is not the rightful winner. Trump should have been given the chance to continue leading us towards greatness. The division we see today, the violence between the Krusty Krab and the Liberal Bucket, it all stems from this flawed election process.
[SpongeBob's unwavering loyalty to Trump shines through, despite the distorted reality he has come to embrace. His words resonate with a portion of the audience, fueling their own suspicions and doubts.]
Tucker Carlson: Strong words, SpongeBob. But how do you respond to those who argue that the violence we've seen is a result of deep-rooted issues that extend beyond the election?
SpongeBob: Tucker, it's easy for them to deflect blame, to claim it's about more than just the election. But I've seen firsthand how the fabric of our society has unraveled since that fateful day. Trump's presidency brought us unity, and now we're left with a divided Bikini Bottom.
[The interview with SpongeBob reaches its conclusion, leaving the viewers with a mix of intrigue, disbelief, and perhaps even a hint of concern. Tucker Carlson, ever the master of stirring controversy, wraps up the segment with a thought-provoking statement.]
Tucker Carlson: Thank you, SpongeBob, for sharing your perspective with us tonight. Whether our viewers agree or disagree, your words have certainly ignited a passionate discussion. We'll be sure to follow up on the developments in Bikini Bottom. Stay tuned, folks.
SpongeBob: Thank you, Tucker. I just want the truth to prevail, no matter how unsettling it may be. The future of Bikini Bottom hangs in the balance, and it's up to all of us to seek the truth and reclaim what we've lost.
[The screen fades to black, leaving the audience pondering the consequences of SpongeBob's fervent beliefs and the turbulent events unfolding in Bikini Bottom. The words "To be continued" appear on the screen, signaling that this controversial and divisive episode is far from over.]
