==Synopsis==
"In a parody of 24, Diego Márquez and Alicia Márquez join forces to sabotage Flats the Flounder and Francis' plan to set off a stink bomb at the Dimmsdale Elementary School bake sale."
==Plot==
Denzel Crocker opens a CTU – Counter Truancy Unit – at Dimmsdale Elementary School with Alicia heading up the operation over Timmy, Lincoln, and Jimmy. When the bullies Flats the Flounder and Francis play truant, Timmy is assigned to spy on them. An expired and highly pungent can of Coral Dew at the Krusty Krab is found to belong to SpongeBob, who is ordered to dispose of it by Mr. Krabs. After failing to persuade Incidental 39 to take it, the soda can falls into the hands of the bullies. SpongeBob then unwittingly gives away Timmy to the bullies, who throw both SpongeBob and Timmy into a dumpster.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Turner had forgotten about the bake sale, and only has a half hour to make her raisin sponge cake. She has to go to the market to buy raisins but there's only one box, which Mrs. Puff refuses to give up. Turner is seen purchasing the raisins as an apparently semiconscious and inflated Mrs. Puff is seen being taken to the hospital by EMTs. At home, to save time, Mrs. Turner drastically increases the oven temperature to 1,200 degrees, burning the cake and making it rock-solid. She attempts to cover it up with pink and white frosting before leaving for the bake sale. She accidentally drops the cake when getting out of the car (which makes it fall onto the car hood, denting it, and eventually the ground). She cannot repair it, so she just pats a bit of the icing flatter. Unsurprisingly, no one shows any interest in her cake.
At Francis' house, the three bullies make a powerful stink bomb from the expired can of Coral Dew (referred as TCBS) (along with other ingredients such as roadkill, burnt hair, Francis' sister's retainer case, six weeks of bottled farts, possum placenta and sweat from a walk-around Chuck-E.-Cheese-suit), and plan on detonating it at the bake sale. After Timmy's failed attempt to track the bullies, Alicia suggests that his brother Diego help them, which he does because it's his day off from work, and he already was at Chuck E. Cheese’s for Tails’ 10th Birthday. Diego breaks in to Francis' house but can't find the roller coaster room. During his investigation, Diego's phone call is accidentally crossed with a call from Jack Bauer of 24 and turns it into a prank call against him. After finding out about the stink bomb, Diego returns to the school to tell Alicia, but is knocked out and captured by Lincoln, who turned out to be the bullies' mole.
At the bake sale, the bullies start the three-minute timer for the bomb. Diego, locked in the ventilation room, contacts Alicia by his video watch and shows her a picture of the stink bomb, telling her to have Denzel Crocker dump the hot dog water and short circuit the ventilation fan. Crocker fills up the room with the water. Running out of air, Diego attempts to swim out, but cannot break through the room's only window. A Incidental 118 tries to shoot through the glass (accidentally aiming at Diego's face each time), but the glass is bulletproof.
Mrs. Turner helps him, breaking the glass by throwing her burnt and incredibly solid cake through the window. Alicia then defuses the bomb (which turns out to have a rather simplistic off switch), saving the bake sale from the stench. However after that, Jack Bauer & several Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) field agents break inside the bake sale, destroying it, and start to arrest Diego for his "annoying prank call". A nuclear bomb then goes off in the distance, but everyone sighs with relief after Bauer reassures them that the nuclear bomb went off at the Chum Bucket.
==Production==
The episode aired alongside the episode "A Bikini Bottom Summer Christmas for Christmas". It was promoted as being the first episode to air on CBS. It is an obvious parody of the TV series, 24, and even contains Jack Bauer and Chloe O'Brian from the TV as guest stars on this episode.
An original idea saw Edgar Stiles from 24 appearing in the episode and being killed, but the concept was dropped due to being 'Too Violent' for SpongeBob.
==Trivia==
* Due to the 40th Anniversary of Chuck E. Cheese Banners at the Chuck E. Cheese, episode is set in the year of 2017.
* This Episode is the only episode of SpongeBob that Doesn't Uses the SpongeBob SquarePants Theme Song.
