==Plot==
SpongeBob and Patrick pack their bags after witnessing everything go to shit.
==Script==
Narrator: Previously on NKC… Everything went to shit. And now, the exciting season 2 finale:
(Fade to SpongeBob and Patrick in the middle of town square; there are bodies lining the streets, fires in the city, and many arrests being made)
Squidward: I WANT MY PHONE CALL!
Police: You’ll get your phone call in Jail!
Plankton: Will we have to share a cell?
Police: Yes, now get in!
Krabs: What about me? Can I get a pass? I have a get-out-of-jail free card.
Police: No, you killed our best officer with your demented necrophilia, you get in the car too.
Krabs: Crap.
(The police officer shove Plankton and Squidward in the car; Elsewhere, Rex is getting carried by his therapist)
Rex: Where am I going…
Therapist: You’re going back to rehab, Rex. You sniffed the stuff again.
Rex: Oh god, not rehab again…
(Camera cuts back to SpongeBob and Patrick)
Patrick: Holy hell. I didn’t expect things to go to shit like this.
SpongeBob: Yeah, neither did I. I expected it to be at least a few years from now.
Patrick: So… what now?
SpongeBob: Yeah, I think I’m gonna pack my bags to get ready to move out of this stupid town.
Patrick: What? Why?
SpongeBob: Because, all of our friends who came here with us were either arrested or are now in rehab. We’re just by ourselves now.
Patrick: But, I can’t go back; my old place got sold!
SpongeBob: I can fix that. Take this.
(Patrick is shocked when SpongeBob places a shotgun in his hands)
Patrick: What the fuck am I gonna do with this?
SpongeBob: Let me demonstrate:
(cut to Patrick approaching his house; he knocks on the door, and the owner comes outside)
Owner: Yes?
Patrick: (pointing shotgun to owner’s head) YOU GOT 5 FUCKING SECONDS TO GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS HOUSE! THIS HOUSE IS MINE NOW!
Owner: WHAT?! WHO ARE YOU?!
Patrick: FIVE. FOUR.
(The owner runs away in fear. Patrick shoots him in the back anyways, and hops in his rock; cut back to present)
Patrick: SpongeBob, that’s a terrible idea.
SpongeBob: Do you want your house back or not?
Patrick: Dude, I obviously do, but I wouldn’t fucking murder a man for it.
SpongeBob: You’re such a wimp, Patrick.
Patrick: NOBODY CALLS ME A FUCKING WIMP! (Punches SpongeBob in the head; screen suddenly goes black)
(Screen fades back to SpongeBob in his apartment, packing bags with Patrick. SpongeBob has a bandage on his head)
SpongeBob: Thanks for helping me pack, Patrick.
Patrick: Anytime, SpongeBob. And, uh, I hope there aren’t any hard feelings between us for punching you so hard.
SpongeBob: To be honest, I have a few. But, I’m too afraid of being punched again, so I will just keep my mouth shut.
Patrick: So… are we gonna be moving the others' shit out too?
SpongeBob: Hmmm… Well, for one, I refuse to go anywhere near Krabs' apartment. I am fairly certain there's still a corpse in there. And as for Squidward and Rexs' places, I am just too lazy in general.
Patrick: Wow, lazy ass.
SpongeBob: Fuck you, Patrick.
(Patrick suddenly hits SpongeBob in the face again as the screen goes black; fade into SpongeBob laying on the floor)
SpongeBob: God damnit, Patrick, how long was I out?
Patrick: An hour.
SpongeBob: Think about how much time got wasted that we could’ve used for cleaning.
Patrick: What? Oh, I got my packing done by that time. The moving truck’s already here.
(Patrick enters the moving truck and drives off)
Patrick: (distantly) See you in Bikini Bottom!
SpongeBob: God damnit, Patrick, you’re such a fucking asshole. (Long, deep sigh) Guess I gotta pack my own shit now.
(SpongeBob starts packing up, and afterwards driving back to Bikini Bottom; At home, SpongeBob is walking to the Krusty Krab, but the door’s locked)
SpongeBob: Why isn’t this open- (realizes, facepalms) God damnit, I forgot Krabs went to jail. 
(Patrick is seen walking to the doors of the Krusty Krab)
Patrick: Hello, Spo-(Walks right into the door) What the Hell?! Why can’t I enter?
SpongeBob: Krabs was arrested, remember?
Patrick: So, no Krabby Patties? For how long?
SpongeBob: I dunno. I wasn’t -
(SpongeBob’s phone begins ringing)
SpongeBob: Oh, that’s mine. (Answers phone) Hello?
Krabs: (on the other line) SpongeBob, I am in jail!
SpongeBob: Yeah, I know. How long was your sentence?
Krabs: 5 years.
SpongeBob: What the fuck?! That’s ludicrous!
Krabs: I know!
SpongeBob: So, how are Squidward and Plankton?
Krabs: Oh, they got life sentences.
SpongeBob: Really?
Krabs: Yup, wish it weren’t so. But that means I get out before those fuckers do!
SpongeBob: Please, Krabs, promise you won’t fuck any more corpses. Please.
Krabs: Yeah, they’re sending me to attend annual Necrophile Anonymous meetings
SpongeBob: Those exist?
Krabs: I guess so. 
SpongeBob: Krabs, I have a question.
Krabs: I only have a minute on the phone left. Make it quick.
SpongeBob: Is the Krusty Krab closed?
Krabs: Until I get back, yeah. But at least the Chum Bucket will rot! Oh, gotta go - my time’s up.
SpongeBob: That was not one minute.
Krabs: Yeah, but they really don’t like me here, so - 
(Krabs suddenly hangs up)
Patrick: Uh, so, how long did he say the Krusty Krab would be closed?
SpongeBob: 5 years.
(Patrick yells in anger, then punches SpongeBob in the face again; Screen fades to a news report)
News Anchor: Breaking news; local millionaire Squilliam Fancyson has been the subject of much controversy, following a series of racially insensitive tweets. When asked about the tweets, Squilliam had this to say:
(Cut to Squilliam outside his mansion, being interviewed)
Squilliam: Listen, I realize what I tweeted wasn’t exactly of the best taste, but it’s ridiculous that I am being put under such fire for simply making a single tweet. And I’m not even racist! I have several black butlers. 
(Cut back to the news anchor)
Anchor: Ironically, it appears that this statement has only furthered the controversy. Squilliam has stated that if this were to continue getting worse, he’d abandon the public life for good. More on this, in season 3 of NKC. I mean, more on this as the story develops.
(The episode cuts to black)
