=== Synopsis ===
The episode starts with SpongeBob waking up and ripping a sheet off his calendar to reveal a Monday. SpongeBob is excited to spend a week at work, but as the week progresses, he gets more and more tired. Once his day off, Sunday, comes, he decides to visit Sandy. During the visit, SpongeBob tells Sandy that she has it easy, but Sandy says that she has to do lots of work underwater, such as fixing leaks, writing reports on sea creatures, and inventing various machines. SpongeBob and Sandy both decide to switch lives for a week to prove to the other that their life is harder, SpongeBob living in a dome full of water on Bikini Atoll and Sandy working as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab.
SpongeBob decides to relax for the first day, but a chip of water falls off of the dome, causing the water to leak out of the dome very slowly. This causes him to run out of the dome, screaming, creating a large hole in the side of the dome which the water quickly floods out of.
Meanwhile, at the Krusty Krab, Sandy is reading the secret formula, and Plankton is listening outside the Krusty Krab. Sandy is about to say the secret ingredient, but just before she can say it, Mr Krabs walks in, saying Sandy's name, making Plankton believe that the secret ingredient is sand. Sandy tells Mr Krabs about how SpongeBob and her switched lives, and she then gets on with making krabby patties. She delivers her patty to Incidental 70, but when he tries to eat said patty, it disappears. Sandy explains that she invented a krabby patty that teleports to your stomach as you try to eat it, but then Mr Krabs walks in, telling Sandy to leave inventing out of her krabby patty making.
The next day, Sandy has made another krabby patty, but Plankton, disguised as a ketchup bottle, announced that he's here to steal the formula. Sandy is glad that her job finally has some excitement, but a jar of mayonnaise immediately falls onto Plankton, and Sandy is disappointed she has to go back to doing her dull job.
Meanwhile, on Bikini Atoll, SpongeBob mentions how he wasted yesterday fixing the leak, and that he now must get around to inventing stuff. A montage is shown of him creating his new invention, but it turns out to be a krabby patty, which he eats. He then invents a super sponge, but it absorbs all the water in the dome. SpongeBob gets his water helmet, but the water in the helmet somehow floats into the sponge, meaning SpongeBob must enter a river to get the water he needs.
The next day, SpongeBob tries to interview a squirrel, but it attacks him, ripping off his face, which lands at the other side of his body. He writes some notes down.
After that, a montage is shown of SpongeBob and Sandy doing their respective jobs. SpongeBob invents a robot, but it runs through the side of his dome, creating a leak. When Sandy is chopping up pickle slices, her knife rips her suit, meaning she must run back to her dome for air. When SpongeBob tries again to interview the squirrel, it eats him, leaving only both of his arms, which write down some notes. Sandy tries, and completely fails, to make a krabby patty with karate. SpongeBob tries to make a freeze ray, but it backfires, turning him into a live-action ice cube.
Back under the surface, SpongeBob and Sandy both agree that their respective jobs are hard. SpongeBob hands Sandy his report, which simply says "Squirrels are mean", causing Sandy to chase SpongeBob off, as the episode ends.
