==Transcript==
[Cut to Jim's house where he is getting ready for work]
Jim: [yawning] Another day, another dollar. Time to make some money!
[Jim leaves his house and meets up with his rapping dog, who is wearing a headset microphone, he moves to his restaurant not noticing him.]
Jim stands behind the counter, looking glum. There are no customers in the restaurant.
Sleuth enters the restaurant, wearing a gold chain and a backwards baseball cap.
Sleuth: Yo, what's up Jim?
Jim: Hey Sleuth, what brings you here?
Sleuth: Just wanted to check in on my boy. You lookin' kinda down.
Jim: Yeah, business has been slow lately. I'm barely making enough to keep this place open.
Sleuth: Well, I might have an idea that could help.
Jim: (perking up) Really? What is it?
Sleuth: Yo yo yo, Jim! Ready to flip some houses? You ever hear of flipping houses?
Jim: (surprised) Yeah, I have. But I don't know anything about it.
Sleuth: That's where I come in, my man. I used to work at the Shell Shack as a rapper. I can use my skills to promote our new flipping houses business and attract new customers.
Jim: (excited) That's a great idea! Let's do it.
Jim and Sleuth are inside a run-down house. They are dressed in construction gear and are holding tools.
Sleuth: (looking around) This place is a mess.
Jim: (nodding) Yeah, it needs a lot of work. This place needs a lot of work. We're gonna have to tear down those walls and rebuild from scratch.
Sleuth: But that's the beauty of flipping houses, my man. We buy a house, fix it up, and sell it for a profit.
Jim: (smiling) I like the sound of that.
Sleuth: And we'll use my rhymes to promote our business. We'll have clients lining up to buy our houses.
Jim: (nodding) Let's do it.
Jim and Sleuth are standing in front of a portal.
Sleuth: (gesturing) After this portal, we'll be in the Tidal No Zone. It's a hotspot for potential clients.
Jim: (nodding) Let's do this. You know it, Sleuth Doggy Dogg! Let's make some deals.
They enter the portal and emerge in the Tidal No Zone. There are a lot of fish and sea creatures milling around.
Sleuth: (starting to rap) Yo, listen up all you fish and sea creatures. Jim and Sleuth are here to help you with your flipping house features. We'll buy a house, fix it up, and make it look new. You'll be living in style, it's all thanks to me and my man Jim too!
The fish and sea creatures start to gather around Jim and Sleuth.
Fish #1: (excited) Wow, you guys can really help us?
Jim: (smiling) You bet we can.
Fish #2: (nodding) Count us in.
Jim and Sleuth are sitting across from Mr. Krabs. He is looking at them suspiciously.
Mr. Krabs: So, you want to buy some of my properties, do ya?
Jim: (nodding) Yes, we do. We're in the flipping houses business, and we think your properties would be perfect for our needs.
Mr. Krabs: (leaning back in his chair) And what makes you think I'd sell to you?
Sleuth: (starting to rap) Yo, Mr. Krabs, we ain't here to cause no trouble. We just want to flip some houses.
[As they start working, the Sleuth Doggy Dogg suddenly opens up a portal to the Tidal No Zone]
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: Whoa, check it out! We're in the Multiverse!
Jim: [surprised] What the heck?! How did we get here?
[The scene opens with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Doggg standing in front of a swirling portal]
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: Alright Jim, this is it. The Tidal No Zone. The perfect place to find some new clients for our house-flipping business.
Jim: Wow, this is crazy! How does it work?
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: It's a portal, Jim. I've got some connections on the other side. You just gotta trust me.
[As Sleuth Doggy Doggg steps forward to activate the portal, a figure emerges from the swirling vortex]
ZpongeZob: Hold it right there, fellas! What are you doing here? Welcome to the Multiverse, I'm ZpongeBob. What brings you here?
Jim: We're here to flip some houses! We heard there's a market for it.
ZpongeBob: [skeptical] You're not from around here, are you?
Jim: Nope, we're from Bikini Bottom.
ZpongeBob: Well, let me tell you, it's not easy to sell real estate in the Multiverse. It's a tough market.
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [confidently] Don't worry, we're up for the challenge!
[They start showing ZpongeBob different properties, but he's not impressed]
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: Whoa, calm down, officer! We're just looking for some potential clients in the Tidal No Zone.
ZpongeZob: Yeah, right. I've been searching for my friend, Zatrick Ztar, who's been causing some real estate damage in Bikini Bottom.
Jim: We're not here to cause any trouble, officer. We're just trying to start a legitimate house-flipping business.
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: Yeah, we just want to help people find their dream homes.
ZpongeZob: Hmm, I don't know about this. You two seem a little suspicious.
Jim: Wait, officer, maybe we can help you find your friend. What does he look like?
ZpongeZob: He's a starfish with green visors and a yellow shirt. He's been damaging real estate and framing it on Squidward to devalue various houses, so he can attract 8th dimensional horrors to live in Bikini Bottom.
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: Woah, that's some heavy stuff. But don't worry, officer. We'll keep an eye out for your friend while we're here.
Jim: Yeah, and we'll prove to you that we're legit real estate agents.
ZpongeBob: [unimpressed] Sorry, but these properties are not up to Multiverse standards. I'm afraid I'll have to pass.
Sleuth Doggy Doggg: We'll even give you a cut if we make any sales.
ZpongeZob: Hmm, alright. But if I catch you two causing any trouble, you'll be in big trouble.
Jim: Understood, officer. We'll be on our best behavior.
[The three of them venture into the Tidal No Zone, on the lookout for potential clients and Zatrick Ztar]
Jim: [disappointed] Darn it, we're not having any luck.
[Cut to Zatrick Ztar, who is causing damage to real estate and framing it on Squidward]
Zatrick Ztar: [evil laugh] This will really mess with their business!
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [suspiciously] Something's not right here. I sense trouble.
Jim: [concerned] What do you mean?
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [pointing] Look over there, it's Zatrick Ztar!
Jim: [surprised] Oh no! He's causing damage to the properties we want to sell!
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: We have to stop him!
[They chase Zatrick Ztar, but he manages to escape]
Jim: [frustrated] This is a disaster. How are we ever going to sell any real estate in this place?
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [determined] Don't worry, Jim. We'll find a way.
[Sleuth sees Squidward hiding from Zatrick Ztar in panic, living in a cardboard box]
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: Yo, Squidward, what's up with you, man?
Squidward: Oh, it's you guys! My life is a disaster. I used to have my own art gallery, but everything fell apart when that Zatrick Ztar showed up.
Jim: What did I do, I don't got time for this man. I got some professionally signed burgers to make and houses to flip.
Squidward: It was that pink dimwitted idiot, Patrick Star again, he had wreaked havoc on my art gallery. He turned my beautiful paintings into grotesque caricatures, scared away all my customers, and even made my clarinet disappear! Now, my art career is ruined, and I'm stuck with dealing with the dimensional horrors he had unleashed with no way out of homelessness.
Sleuth Doggy Dog: That ain't right, man, we can't let that Zatrick Ztar get away with ruining your life.
Squidward: Who's Zatrick? I hate my annoying dimwitted neighbors.
[Around the corner, a police officer shows up]
Police Officer: Squidward, you are in violation of causing property damage. You have destoryed tons of our homes in the process allowing for house flippers to make an easy dime.
Patrick: Hi Squidward, I had just helped my best friend SpongeBob renovate some homes for Mr. Krabs.
Squidward: This is not what you think! I'm innocent.
Police Officer: That's what they always say! To the big house you go Squidward!
Patrick: Hey look at the distance, SpongeBob, he looks like you except with a stupid Visor. 
ZpongeZob: I don't know what your deal is Zatrick, but your days of hopping out of our reality and causing crime are going to be over.
SpongeBob: I don't know what your deal is, but we could settle this with a good old friendly chat.
ZpongeZob: You're lucky that I still consider you my friend, or else I will be getting my fellow Tidal Zone Cop pals, but the Bikini Bottom police should be enough to arrest you Zatrick. Apologize for your crimes, evil Starfish.
Patrick: Okay, I am sorry for the time, I've trapped SpongeBob in a wringer. It wasn't my fault. I was just in a bad mood that day.
ZpongeZob: Go on Zatrick, you will explain everything in the big house. The biggest jail for sentient fish in the multiverse.
SpongeBob: I don't know why you want to arrest my best friend, but he's done nothing to harm me as of recently.
ZpongeZob: What a phone call? I am getting some calls about an evil Banana King working with a bad actor connected to the source of the horrors. Sorry Zatrick, I am going to have to transport my rocket ship to travel towards outer space. I will have to interrogate you later.
[Jim and Sleuth look at a Hypercube held by ZpongeZob pull out a rocket ship]
Jim: We better go get to the bottom of this.
Sleuth: Yo, Dawg.
[Scene opens up with ZpongeZob on a rocket ship headed towards Banana Planet. He's wearing a pair of sunglasses and jamming out to some groovy tunes]
ZpongeZob: "Oh yeah, this is gonna be epic. Time to confront the Banana King and give him a piece of my mind!"
[The rocket ship lands and ZpongeZob steps out. The Banana King is sitting on a throne made of bananas]
Banana King: "Ah, welcome to Banana Planet. What brings you here, little cop?"
ZpongeZob: "I'm here to tell you that you've been a bad banana, Banana King. Your behavior has been outrageous and you need to change your ways!"
Banana King: "What are you gonna do about it, huh? Peel me? Ha ha!"
ZpongeZob: "I'm serious! You can't just go around causing chaos and expecting no consequences."
Banana King: "My friends have bought houses thanks to Zatrick Ztar."
ZpongeBob: [upset] Banana King, you've been a bad banana. You haven't been enforcing the regulations on real estate.
[Meanwhile, Zatrick Ztar is swimming around Bikini Bottom, feeling angry and betrayed. He spots Anti-Patrick, the blue starfish who has stolen his identity and taken over his job as Tidal Zone Cop]
Zatrick Ztar: "Hey! What are you doing in my uniform?"
Anti-Patrick: "What? This is my uniform, buddy. You're yesterday's news. Now scram!"
[Zatrick Ztar and Anti-Patrick start fighting, but it's interrupted by the sound of a commotion outside. Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg are in the middle of a brawl with a group of underwater gangsters]
Gangster: "Hey, youse guys gotta pay a protection fee if you wanna operate in our territory!"
Jim: "No way, we won't pay a penny!"
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: "Yeah, we'll beat you at your own game!"
[The gangsters attack, but Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg use their wits and teamwork to outsmart them. They trap the gangsters in a giant seaweed net and make their escape]
Jim: "Phew, that was a close one!"
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: "We make a great team, Jim. Who knew rapping could come in handy like this?"
Jim: "Yeah, and we'll need all the help we can get if we're gonna take down Zatrick Ztar and the Banana King!"
[The scene ends with ZpongeZob still trying to reason with the Banana King, who is now wearing a banana suit and dancing to a cheesy disco song]
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [excitedly] Jim, I have an idea!
Jim: [curious] What is it?
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [smiling] We'll go back to Bikini Bottom and sell real estate there.
[Scene opens with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg sitting in their office, looking sad and defeated]
Jim: [sighs] Well, that was a long day. We only got a few customers.
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: Yeah, but at least we convinced them to buy a house with my sick rhymes!
Jim: [smiles weakly] Yeah, thanks for that, Sleuth.
[Suddenly, there's a knock on the door]
Jim: [excitedly] Oh, maybe it's more customers!
[Jim goes to open the door, but it's Mr. Krabs]
Mr. Krabs: [smiling] Well, well, well, if it isn't my favorite rival business owners.
Jim: [confused] Rival? What do you mean?
Mr. Krabs: [chuckles] Don't play dumb with me, boy-o. You're trying to flip houses, and I own half the properties in Bikini Bottom. I'm not going to let you steal my profits.
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [sarcastically] Oh, great. Another obstacle to our success.
Mr. Krabs: [laughs] You betcha. And if you want to buy any of my properties, you'll have to pay top dollar.
Jim: [sighs] Well, we don't have that kind of money.
Mr. Krabs: [smiling] Then I guess you'll have to find another line of work. [exits the room]
Jim: [frustrated] Ugh, we hit a wall. We can't compete with Mr. Krabs.
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [smirks] Don't worry, Jim. We'll find a way to outsmart that greedy crustacean. We'll flip his house!
Jim: [surprised] What? Flip Mr. Krabs' house? How is that going to help us?
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [grinning] Think about it, Jim. If we can show Mr. Krabs how much profit he can make by flipping his own house, he'll have to sell it to us at a fair price.
Jim: [nodding] I like the way you think, Sleuth. Let's do it!
[The scene ends with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg high-fiving each other, determined to succeed]
[Inside a dimly lit jail cell. Squidward Tentacles is sitting on a cold metal bench, looking dejected. He is wearing a striped prisoner uniform and his tentacles are folded across his chest.]
Squidward: [sighs] Well, this is just great. Locked up in jail for a crime I didn't commit. What a perfect ending to my already miserable day.
[Just then, the cell door creaks open, and Mr. Krabs sneaks in, wearing a black and white striped prison outfit and carrying a file in his claw.]
Mr. Krabs: Psst! Squidward, me boy! I've come to bust ya out!
Squidward: Mr. Krabs? What are you doing here?
Mr. Krabs: I heard about your predicament, Squidward, and I couldn't just leave you in jail! We gotta get you outta here!
Squidward: [grinning] Well, I never thought I'd see the day when Mr. Krabs would come to my rescue.
Mr. Krabs: [smirking] Aye, well, don't get used to it, lad. This is strictly business. Now, hold still, I've got a plan.
[Mr. Krabs starts using the file to pick the lock of the cell door. Squidward watches with anticipation, trying to keep an eye out for any approaching guards.]
Squidward: [whispering] Hurry up, Mr. Krabs! I don't want to spend another minute in this dreadful place.
Mr. Krabs: [grunting] Almost there, Squidward. Just a few more turns...
[The lock finally clicks open, and Mr. Krabs swings the door open, gesturing for Squidward to follow him.]
Mr. Krabs: Quick, Squidward, follow me! We gotta be stealthy if we want to make it out of here.
[Squidward and Mr. Krabs tiptoe through the dark corridors of the jail, avoiding guards and security cameras along the way. They use their wit and cunning to evade capture, utilizing Mr. Krabs' knowledge of the jail's layout and Squidward's quick thinking.]
Squidward: [whispering] This way, Mr. Krabs. The exit should be just around the corner.
Mr. Krabs: [nodding] Right behind ya, Squidward.
[They finally reach the exit, but just as they are about to make a run for it, a guard spots them and sounds the alarm.]
Guard: Intruders! Stop right there!
[Squidward and Mr. Krabs sprint towards the exit, dodging obstacles and narrowly avoiding capture. They burst through the doors and into the open air, breathing heavily.]
Squidward: We made it! We're free!
[We open with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg in a meeting with potential clients]
Jim: "Thank you for considering our real estate services. We promise-"
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [interrupting] "Hold up, hold up! Before we go any further, I gotta lay down a sick rap for y'all."
Client 1: "Uh, sure."
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: [starts rapping] "Yo, yo, yo, it's Sleuth Doggy Doggg and Jim, flipping houses like we're Eminem. Our skills are mad, our deals are tight, we'll find you the perfect house day or night!"
Client 2: "Wow, that was... something."
Jim: "Uh, yes, thank you, Sleuth. As I was saying-"
[They are suddenly interrupted by ZpongeZob bursting into the room]
ZpongeZob: "Jim! Sleuth! You gotta come with me to Banana Planet! The Banana King's been acting bananas and I need your help to set him straight!"
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: "Bananas on Banana Planet acting bananas? Sounds like my kind of party!"
Jim: "I don't know, ZpongeZob. We're kind of in the middle of something here."
ZpongeZob: "Oh come on, what's more important than helping a friend in need?"
[Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg reluctantly agree and follow ZpongeZob to Banana Planet. While they are gone, Zatrick Ztar shows up and confronts Anti-Patrick for stealing his identity]
Zatrick Ztar: "What are you doing in my job, blue boy?"
Anti-Patrick: "I'm Anti-Patrick! I took your identity fair and square!"
Zatrick Ztar: "That's it, I'm taking you down!"
[They engage in a silly, over-the-top fight scene, complete with sound effects and cartoonish movements]
[Cut back to Jim, Sleuth Doggy Dogg, and ZpongeZob on Banana Planet]
ZpongeZob: "Alright, here's the plan. We sneak into the Banana King's palace and-"
[Suddenly, they are interrupted by Mr. Krabs and his henchmen]
Mr. Krabs: "What are you all doing here? This is my territory!"
Jim: "We're just trying to do some real estate business. Is that so wrong?"
Mr. Krabs: "It is when you're trying to steal my properties!"
[They engage in a ridiculous fight scene, with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg using everyday objects as weapons]
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: "Take that, you shellfish scum! And that, you crustacean cheapskate!"
[Eventually, they defeat Mr. Krabs and his henchmen and acquire the properties they need]
Jim: "Well, that was certainly... something. But we did it! We got the properties we need to start our business!"
Sleuth Doggy Dogg: "And we did it all with style, baby! I'm gonna write a rap about this!"
[The episode ends with Jim and Sleuth Doggy Dogg celebrating their victory, but with a hint of worry about the enemies they've made along the way]
