Episode begins at The Loud House on a windy and stormy evening.
Johnny Elaine: *announces a Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy marathon* Salutations, heroic devotees! I hope you're securely seated and sufficiently hydrated, because coming up next, it's the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy marathon!
SpongeBob SquarePants: *pulls out a long list from his pocket* We've got to make sure we have the necessary supplies for this marathon.
Lincoln Loud: Let's do this!
Leni Loud: Okay, how are we on snacks?
Patrick Star: Oh, hmm... I don't know. We might be able to pull through... *gestures to a wall stacked with ridiculous amounts of junk food* ...the first hour.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Check. Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy action figures? *grunts, forcing six different action figures out of his craters* Check. Drapes?
Leni Loud: Check.
Patrick Star: *enters from behind purple drapes with Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy on us*
SpongeBob SquarePants: Lampshade?
Lincoln Loud: Check.
Patrick Star: *turns on Mermaid Man lamp*
He's wearing it around his neck.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Thermometer? *spits out Mermaid Man thermometer* Check. Ukulele, throw pillow, screensaver, incense, snail cozy, headgear?
Patrick Star: *with Mermaid Man orthodontic headgear on* Check.
SpongeBob SquarePants: And...
Mermaid Man watch beeps, saying:
Computerized Mermaid Man Watch: It's time. It's time. It's time to fight... *groans* evil!
SpongeBob SquarePants: It's time, guys! I hope we can make do with the few provisions we have…
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: *sits on the couch*
When the program starts, pedestrians scream and flee in fear when the Dirty Bubble appears. The Dirty Bubble eats a citizen.
Johnny Elaine: For sixty-some-odd years, Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy have quadruple-handedly kept the sea crime-free.
The two heroes pop the Dirty Bubble, releasing the citizen.
Johnny Elaine: And in celebration of such longevity, we're kicking off this weekend-long hero fest with the never-before-aired Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Origin Special!
SpongeBob and Patrick's skin peels in excitement.
Leni Loud: This is it, guys.
Johnny Elaine: And now, without further fanfare, *fanfare plays* the Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Origin Spe–
TV turns off unexpectedly.
SpongeBob SquarePants: No…
Crashing, thundering sound and lights go off, then lightning strikes and windows are shattered.
SpongeBob SquarePants: NO!
The Loud House is struck by lightning and ripped apart and thrown into the air, leaving SpongeBob, Patrick, Lincoln and Leni sitting there. A thunder is heard and a lightning bolt is shown again.
SpongeBob SquarePants: No! This is terrible! How will we see the Origin Special now?
The TV is blown by wind and is pulverized against the side of Mr. Grouse's house.
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: *runs to Mr. Grouse’s house and pound on his front door*
Leni Loud: Mr. Grouse! Mr. Grouse! Mr. Grouse, we need your help! There's a storm outside! It's raining and we're missing the Mermaid Man marathon!
Mr. Grouse: No! I've got better things to do than watch grown men prance around in ridiculous outfits.
Mr. Grouse's TV shows a man in a leotard performing ballet; the TV unexpectedly turns off.
Mr. Grouse: Dang it. Circuit must've blown again. *opens the door letting the wind ruin my living room*
SpongeBob, Patrick, Lincoln and Leni are also swept inside.
Leni Loud: Hey, thanks for all your help, Mr. Grouse.
Patrick Star: Yeah, we owe you one!
Mr. Grouse's house is also struck by lightning and ripped apart by the wind and is hurled into the air. A thunder is heard and a lightning bolt is shown again.
Lincoln Loud: What now, guys?
SpongeBob SquarePants: I don't know, Lincoln. All the TVs in Royal Woods are knocked out! We have to find a secure place, some place that can survive this whirlwind. *thinks* Hey, that's it. If we want to see Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy's origin, we'll just go to the source. Follow me, guys.
Leni Loud: Thanks for nothing, Mr. Grouse.
They follow SpongeBob, who is leaving.
Mr. Grouse: So sorry to have put the dishes in your plans! *screams*
He is flung into the air. Slide transition cuts to Bikini Bottom, they are grunting because they are crawling.
Lincoln Loud: We made it!
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: *sees a welcome mat in front of the Mermalair secret entrance*
Lincoln Loud: Patrick, get up! We have found the Mermalair!
They proceed, but plunge into a trapdoor underneath the mat. They plunge into a net and drop onto the ground.
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: *exchanges glances* Again!
Barnacle Boy: *spots the four on the ground* Oh, boy.
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: *laughs*
As they are dragged by Mermaid Man to the main control panel of the Mermalair.
SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star, Lincoln and Leni Loud: Again!
Barnacle Boy: Do you mind telling us what you're doing here?
Patrick Star: We wanna watch your TV!
Barnacle Boy: I hate to break it to you kids, but you'll have to go somewhere else. Our power got knocked out in the storm.
Patrick Star: But, but... now how will we ever learn about their secret "gorinin"? *mispronounces "origin"*
SpongeBob SquarePants: Hang on a minute, guys, we've got Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy standing right over here!
Leni Loud: ...Yeah, so?
SpongeBob SquarePants: So, if we want to hear their origin, why don't we just ask them?
Leni Loud: Whoa! You're totes like a brain professor!
SpongeBob SquarePants: Mermaid Man, Barnacle Boy, we wanna know how this all started.
Mermaid Man: You wanna go back to the start of it all, eh? *narrates* Well, you see, in the beginning, the Loud are hanging out at the beach. Lori, Luna and Luan are going swimming. Lynn and Lucy are playing volleyball. Lana and Lily are building sandcastles. While Lynn. Sr, Rita, Lola and Lisa are sunbathing. As for Lincoln and Leni, well......
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Come on Leni! The waters are just fine!
Flashback Leni Loud: I don't wanna go swimming! It's too cold!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Leni it's not even that cold. Why don't you wanna go swimming?
Flashback Lori Loud: Because she literally doesn't know how to swim!
Flashback Leni Loud: *sighs* It's true. I'm 16 years old and I still don't know how to swim. That's why I couldn't get that lifeguard job.
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Well I'll teach you how to swim Leni!
Flashback Leni Loud: WOW!!! YOU CAN DO THAT!!??
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Of course! Anything for you Leni!
Flashback Leni Loud: YAY!!!!!!
Flashback Leni and Lincoln Loud: *gets in the water*
Flashback Leni Loud: immediately jumps in the air* EEEEKKK!!!!!! IT'S FREEZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She lands in the water realizing she absolutely cannot swim. She lands in a spot where none of the family could find her. She immediately starts drowning.
Flashback Leni Loud: HELP!!!!!! I CAN'T SWIM!!!!!!
But due to being where no one can hear her she unfortunately drowns. The Family is getting ready to go home.
Flashback Lynn Loud Sr: Ok it seems like we've got everyone. Wait, it seems like someone's missing. Let's see Lori, Luna, Luan…..
Flashback Lincoln Loud: LENI!!!!!!!
Flashback Lori Loud: Oh no! OH NO!!!!!! Lincoln! Why did you pressure her into going swimm— SHE DROWNED!!!!!!!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: OH MY GOSH!!!!!! I DROWNED LENI!!!!!!!! *starts to bawl his eyes out*
Flashback Lynn Loud Sr.: Son. You didn't do it on purpose. But now one of my girls is gone....... *cries*
Flashback The Loud Family: LENI!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barnacle Boy: *offscreen* What are you talking about?
Mermaid Man: *offscreen* Huh?
Flashback pauses.
Barnacle Boy: You're supposed to be telling the story of how Leni gets the water breathing potion!
Mermaid Man: *facepalms* ...The story. Yes.
Flashback continues, very similar to the first one.
Mermaid Man: *narrates* She was swimming, a 16 year old Loud sister, soaking up underwater in the pool. When suddenly, SpongeBob and Patrick are blowing bubbles.
In Bikini Bottom, SpongeBob and Patrick are blowing bubbles.
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: *makes a giraffe* Patrick! Look! It's a giraffe!
Flashback Patrick Star: Nah SpongeBob. That's a hippo!
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: *looks at my watch* OH SHRIMP!!!!! I'm late for work! I'll see ya later Patrick!
Flashback Patrick Star: Yup! Have fun at work! *goes to my rock to take a nap and falls asleep*
Flashback pauses.
Mermaid Man: *falls asleep also*
Barnacle Boy: Wake up, you old coot. Finish the story.
Mermaid Man: *wakes up after being nudged by Barnacle Boy* Huh?
SpongeBob SquarePants: *excitedly* Yeah, Mermaid Man, what about Barnacle Boy?
Patrick Star: Yeah, how'd you two meet?
Mermaid Man: *slaps my temples* Oh, sorry, guys…
Flashback continues.
Mermaid Man: *narrates* There she was in the ocean, the only human who could breathe underwater. All of a sudden a human lands and breaks through Patrick's rock waking him up. It's Leni.
Flashback Leni Loud: Ugh. What happened? HUH!!?? AM I IN HEAVEN!!??
Flashback Patrick Star: Oh no! It's the clamburglar!
Flashback Leni Loud: Where!? Where!?
Flashback Patrick Star: Wait, you're not the clamburglar!?
Flashback Leni Loud: *hands on hips* Uh no! I'm not a burglar!
Flashback Patrick Star: Oh!
Leni suddenly starts getting red in the face. She's running low on air breathing.
Flashback Patrick Star: Oh no, Leni's in trouble! I've got to get the water breathing potion or she'll drown.
Flashback Leni Loud: OMGOSH. I NEED THE WATER BREATHING POTION!!!
Flashback Patrick Star: *goes to get the water breathing Potion and puts water breathing potion on Leni's mouth*
Flashback Leni Loud: *drinks water breathing potion* OMGosh! I can breathe water and air! Thank you so much! *hugs him*
Flashback Patrick Star: *hugs her back* Hey, it's no problem!
Flashback Leni Loud: Last thing I remember was going to the beach and attempting to swim but then I drowned. Where am I?
Flashback Patrick Star: Bikini Bottom.
Flashback Leni Loud: Yaayy!! I only wear a bikini when I go swimming! Which I technically am now! Hahaha! But why is your town called Bikini Bottom?
Flashback Patrick Star: Uhhhhhhh……...I dunno?
Flashback Leni Loud: My name is Leni Loud. What's your name?
Flashback Patrick Star: I'm Patrick Star! Why don't I show you around town!
Flashback Leni Loud: Oooh! Sounds fun!
Flashback Patrick Star and Leni Loud: *arrives at Squidward's house*
Flashback Squidward Tentacles: What is it Patrick!?
Flashback Patrick Star: I want you to meet my new friend Leni!
Flashback Leni Loud: Hey!
Flashback Squidward Tentacles: *slams the door*
Flashback Leni Loud: Ugh! How rude!
They take a trip to the Krusty Krab.
Flashback Squidward Tentacles: Oh boy, not you two again!
Flashback Leni Loud: Hey why are you so grumpy!?
Flashback Patrick Star: Two Krabby Patties Squidward!
Flashback Squidward Tentacles: Whatever! SpongeBob! Two Krabby Patties!
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: Two Krabby Patties comin up! *delivers the patties to Leni and Patrick's table* Hey Patrick! Who's this!?
Flashback Patrick Star: SpongeBob, this is my new friend Leni!
Flashback Leni Loud: Hi SpongeBob!
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: Hi Leni! Enjoy your first Krabby Patty!
Flashback Leni Loud: *takes a bite of the patty* Mmmmmm…..This tastes just like my dad's burgers!
Then Leni starts to miss home.
Flashback Leni Loud: *starts to cry* I WANNA GO HOME!!!!!!!
Flashback pauses.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Ohhhh, so that's how we go underwater.
Barnacle Boy: Sounds great.
Mermaid Man: Oh... yeah.
Barnacle Boy: Anyway, from that day forward, we became
Johnny Elaine: Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, superhero crime fighters!
A new flashback begins, an alarm is clanging while people are shouting.
Flashback Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy: A crime in progress!
Flashback Bank Robber: *laughs maniacally*
As he is stealing bags of cash from the First Nautical Bank.
Flashback Banker: Stop! Thief!
Flashback Barnacle Boy: See if you think this is funny, evildoer. *rapidly spits barnacles at the robber, knocking him down* Who's laughing now, thieving scum?
Flashback Banker: *shakes Mermaid Man's hand* Thank you, sir. And to whom do I owe this debt of gratitude?
Flashback Mermaid Man: You can thank me, Mermaid Man.
Barnacle Boy is seen shaking in indignity in the background.
A new flashback begins, Man Ray has the upper hand in a duel against Barnacle Boy. He laughs.
Flashback Man Ray: You're mine!
Flashback Barnacle Boy: *shoots web a web of cheese-like material that binds and gags Man Ray* How'd you like to taste my tentacle zapper, Man Ray?
Flashback Mermaid Man: *dials a pay phone* Hello... *indistinct response* So? What are you wearing? *indistinct response* Oh. In that case, can I get a large pepperoni pizza, extra cheese? Thanks.
Flashback Barnacle Boy: *slaps my head in disgust*
Flashback has ended.
Mermaid Man: That didn't happen!
Barnacle Boy: Oh, yes, it did!
Mermaid Man: Oh no, it didn't!
Barnacle Boy: Oh, ha ha, like you remember. You don't even remember where you live.
Mermaid Man: It didn't happen!
Flashback continues.
Mermaid Man: *narrates* Meanwhile in Royal Woods Lincoln is bawling his eyes out because he thinks Leni is dead.
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Oh Leni. I miss you. I should've never told you to go swimming. You know what, I'm not leaving her body in the water. I gotta go get her! *goes into my closet to get water breathing potion*
He runs as fast as he can to get to the beach. It takes him like an hour to reach the beach while running. He searches all over the beach. After about an hour he gives up and gets ready to go home until he finds Leni's shades floating in the water. He dives straight in where her glasses are. Back in Bikini Bottom at SpongeBob's Pineapple Patrick, Leni and him are planning a way to get Leni back up to the surface.
Flashback Leni Loud: Oh I know! How about– Ugh I can't remember!
Flashback Patrick Star: I know! We could shoot you out of a canon!
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: That probably wouldn't shoot her all the way back to the surface!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: *starts swimming*
Until he reaches Bikini Bottom. He starts heading towards Conch Street in front of SpongeBob's Pineapple. He knocks on the door.
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: *answers it* Hello!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Hi my sister Leni drowned around this spot. I was wondering if you could help me locate her.
Flashback Leni Loud: Hey my name's Len........ LINKY!!!!!!!!!!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: Wait? LENI!!!!!!!!!!
They hug each other tightly.
Flashback Lincoln Loud: I missed you so much! I can't believe you're alive!
Flashback Leni Loud: Oh I'm fine and well Lincoln! Oh boys this is my brother Lincoln!
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star: Hi Lincoln!
Flashback Lincoln Loud: I'm sorry for pressuring you to go swimming!
Flashback Leni Loud: No need to apologize, Linky. I'm doing just fine. But how are we gonna get home!?
Flashback SpongeBob SquarePants: Hmmm...... I KNOW!!!!!
They arrive at Sandy’s treedome where she has her rocket ready to go.
Flashback Sandy Cheeks: Ready you two?
Flashback Lincoln and Leni Loud: Ready!
Flashback Leni Loud: Wait I forgot something! *looks at SpongeBob and Patrick* Thank you so much for helping me! Especially you Patrick! If it weren't for you I might have died!
Flashback Patrick Star: Anytime!
The group hugs. Squidward is seen behind a corner crying.
Flashback Squidward Tentacles: Hey who left these bowls of onions here!?
The End graphic appears on the TV, flashback ends.
Barnacle Boy: Oh, feels just like yesterday, doesn't it, Mermaid Man?
Mermaid Man: ...No, not really.
Barnacle Boy: Hmm... Oh, so what do you boys think? Boys? *realizes SpongeBob, Patrick, Lincoln and Leni have left*
