## Cutscenes

### 1st stage (Mr. Krabs)

While SpongeBob and Patrick come back from Sandy's Treedome and arrive at the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs and Squidward explain the invention made by Karen that searches for large amounts of Jellien Goo. When the radar says there is a large amount near them, Squidward thinks that the Invention is "busted", but it's then revealed that The Overlord was on top of them.

The Overlord then summons the entire Jellien Species to the Krusty Krab and they all work together to lift the building up into the air.

Mr. Krabs has had enough and mans the mayonnaise turret that was under the register. He asks Patrick to use the Flamethrower on the tentacles, while Mr. Krabs would protect Patrick's "Poop deck", essentially watching his back, during the onslaught of Jelliens.

The Overlord drops the Krusty Krab and retreats to Rock Bottom. The heroes survive the fall, but the Krusty Krab is destroyed. This proves to be the last straw for Mr. Krabs- who is fuming at The Overlord for taking everything away from him.

They hop on a bus and tell Marty, the driver, to take them to Rock Bottom, but he refuses because of SpongeBob and Patrick's obnoxious behavior. Mr. Krabs then throws poor Marty out of the bus and drives there himself. They go over the cliff and crash into the ground within Rock Bottom.

### 2nd Stage (Squidward)

Squidward now has to has to lead Mr. Krabs and the gang to the Museum. Mr. Krabs tells Squidward that the Clam Cam is the only thing that can protect them from the Alaskan Bull Worm and the Parasitic Worm. This begins Squidward's stage of the level.

They safely make it to the Museum and explore the place, while SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs explore the Museum, they see that the Jelliens have captured Bikini Bottom residents and trapped them within cocoons. Mr. Krabs was in fear until he saw his daughter Pearl, in a cocoon with her head eaten by the Jelliens. The Overlord appears and tries to kill them but Mr. Krabs uses his Minigun on him. However, The Overlord's outer shell is too strong and the mayonnaise doesn't affect him.

SpongeBob remembers the Jelliens' reaction to music. Patrick had a task to do in which he had to get a guitar.

### 3rd Stage (Patrick)

The Overlord throws Patrick into the Art Gallery and the Nerdy Employee appears before he is stomped on by Dennis. Dennis is then crushed by a piano that the Doodles drop on him, and the Squid Drawing is stepped on by Doodle Patrick

Doodle Patrick wants to Erase Patrick to avenge his planet, but DoodleBob defends Patrick, prompting Doodle Patrick to erase DoodleBob. After dumping a jar of Jellien Goo on himself, Doodle Patrick becomes full color and fights Patrick.

After Doodle Patrick is defeated, he cowers on the ground, begging for mercy until Patrick drops his guard. Doodle Patrick strikes at him, and recalls all of the times Patrick was a horrible friend towards SpongeBob, until Patrick spits the gasoline he drank from the Boatmobile's tank in Goo Lagoon all over Doodle Patrick, knocking him down.

After knocking down Doodle Patrick again, Patrick talks about how he's sorry for SpongeBob and how he would rather be dumb than someone who knows everything, he then promptly burns him alongside the pencil.

### Final Stage (SpongeBob)

Patrick walks out of the Art Gallery with the guitar and sees SpongeBob fleeing from The Overlord as he tries to hit him, and Mr. Krabs & Squidward fleeing from Pinkies as Mr. Krabs shoots them with mayonnaise and uses the shelf to block the doors. Mr. Krabs tells Patrick to toss the guitar over to SpongeBob and after doing so SpongeBob plays the guitar which transports them to the Bubble Bowl.

### Post-Final Showdown Cutscene

After the Final Showdown with the Overlord, SpongeBob is knocked down by a loud roar.

Mr. Krabs looks down at SpongeBob, then back at his friends, before finally back at his locket containing an image of Pearl. He knows what he must do.

Mr. Krabs tells Squidward to use the last of the Mayo in his weapon and cover him with it, Squidward at first protests, but eventually reluctantly complies- there is no other way. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob to toss the guitar to him so that The Overlord goes after him. Mr. Krabs looks back at Squidward and Patrick, he nods before jumping into The Overlord's mouth which kills The Overlord.

### Ending

After an explosion, the gang finds themselves back inside The Museum, also finding Mr. Krabs' broken shell and claw in The Overlord's Goo. The screen fades to black and the credits play.

### Secret/Good Ending (S Rank, all levels aced, all achievements)

After Acing all the levels (finding all the achievements and reaching S Rank), a secret ending is unlocked, and Mr. Krabs' outstretched claw will be holding the secret formula instead of being empty-handed. A cutscene shows the Krusty Krab one year later where almost every character is peacefully eating Krabby Patties and SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward have created a memorial to both Mr. Krabs and his daughter Pearl near his restaurant.

## Level

### Krusty Krab

After the intro cutscene, the player will be thrown into the Krusty Krab to fight four hordes of Jelliens trying to attack Mr. Krabs and Patrick. Each wave gets harder, and after each wave the Overlord pops in to roar, granting time for Krabs to attack him. After the Overlord is defeated, an alpha spawns, slowly snaking around the restaurant to Patrick, with Krabs needing to defeat him. After The Overlord and Alpha's defeats, the segment ends.

### Rock Bottom

Another cutscene, and afterward Squidward spawns in Rock Bottom. They can investigate a little, then Krabs tells him to continue to the museum, it being the Jellien hideout. The player must flash the clam cam to alert them to the presence of the Parasitic Worm, who kills on touch, and the Alaskan Bull Worm, who charges on sight.

### Art Gallery

Another cutscene and a plan are formed, but Patrick is thrown into the museum's art gallery. There, the Nerdy Employee attempts to attack but is scared off and stomped by Dennis. Before he can kill the player, Doodle Patrick crushes him with a piano. They talk, and DoodleBob has a change of heart but is erased. Patrick and Patrick then fight. Doodle Patrick loses, but then tricks Patrick, before berating him. Patrick ends up belching gasoline on him, before lighting the pencil on fire and stabbing him with it. The doodle screams and runs around while on fire and with the pencil still in him, before curling up and burning away.

### Bubble Bowl

SpongeBob goes to fight the Overlord directly, using the Goofy Goober Guitar. The Overlord tries desperately to beat him before finally being temporarily bested. He recovers quickly and trips SpongeBob, before Krabs intervenes by having Squidward cover him in mayonnaise, then jumping into The Overlord's mouth. An explosion is seen, and the gang is back in the museum, with a massive pile of Jellien goo and a broken crab shell lying nearby. The three are all saddened by the loss of Mr. Krabs, but happy the invasion is over.

## Trivia

* This level is the only level in the game that doesn't appear in the digital manual, likely to avoid spoilers.
* Using out-of-bounds hacks in the Krusty Krab segment allows you to see and get inside the kitchen, revealing Squidward and SpongeBob in a lewd position with each other.
* During the Rock Bottom segment, there is a very low chance that an easter egg called Yummer will spawn. Flashing the camera at Yummer will unlock a misc. extra, and it will sink into the ground.
	+ Yummer's model and his inclusion as a whole are based on an unused asset from the web game "SpongeBob Saves The Day!". Yummer, who appears to be a humanoid monster with a realistic, smiling mouth and set of eyes, is a 3D-modeled placeholder that can be found on one of Mrs. Puff's sprite sheets in the Krusty Krab as well as another Krusty Krab sprite sheet featuring Mr. Krabs and Incidental 106, the latter of which contains what appears to be an alternate pose for Yummer, indicating that it may have had an animation at one point. In the game's library.json file, Mrs. Puff's first sprite sheet is defined as "t\_tmpYummer". This filename is where the creature's name supposedly comes from.
* There is a glitch where the clam cam icon is still on the Alaskan Bull Worm's game over screen.
* Patrick doesn't remember Dennis, despite encountering him in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.
* When Doodle Patrick is explaining the doodles' demise (including DoodlePants) to Patrick, he mentions some references to the episodes Frankendoodle, Doodle Dimension, and the DS/DSI/3DS/2DS video game, Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition.
	+ Patrick falling asleep and snoring with his mouth wide open during this explanation is a reference to the episode Naughty Nautical Neighbors.
* When Doodle Patrick is degrading Patrick, all the examples he mentions are references to real episodes. Most of the examples are from Seasons 4-8, which is commonly known among the community as the "dark period" of SpongeBob, where the quality of episodes generally went down and characters acted differently than their original personalities in Seasons 1-3. This is what Doodle Patrick is getting at, as in that period Patrick was much dumber and meaner than usual.
	+ The collector's card quote is a reference to the episode The Card.
	+ The Wringer quote is a reference to the episode Stuck in the Wringer.
	+ The temporary royalty quote is a reference to the episode Rule of Dumb.
	+ The poorly-earned license is a reference to the episode Driven to Tears.
	+ The BFF ring Patrick is wearing is the Friendship Ring.
	+ Patrick saying his name isn't Rick is a reference to a quote from the episode The Fry Cook Games.
	+ Doodle Patrick rhetorically asking how there is fire underwater is a reference to a scene in the episode Life of Crime, where Patrick asks the same thing.
* During the fight with The Overlord, a Prowler can be seen watching them fight while eating popcorn.
	+ An Alpha can even be seen chewing on Popcorn as well.
* In the Bubble Bowl segment, all the advertisements on the stadium walls are references to Dave and Padre.
* In the Bubble Bowl segment, by using out-of-bounds hacks, the player can go all around the field, revealing a massive pink rectangle on one side with "TEAM BERRY" on it. And on the other side, revealing a massive green rectangle on another side with "TEAM JELLY" on it.
* Putting the first letter in all 4 sections of the final level spells "Krab", this was just as intentional as the immaturely shaped map as told in one of Jayskibean's Twitch streams.
* As seen in a Twitch stream Padre did, If you go too far off the road in Rock Bottom, a Nestler will appear and kill you.
* Additionally, the Nestler's game over screen will have the game ridicule the player and ask them what they expected to happen.
* The message that appears when selecting this level on the map is different from the generic level select message. It reads "This is it... do you wish to proceed?"
* After Acing all the levels (finding all the achievements and reaching S Rank), a secret ending is unlocked, and Mr. Krabs's outstretched dead claw will be holding the secret formula instead of being empty-handed. A cutscene shows the Krusty Krab one year later where almost every character is peacefully eating Krabby Patties and SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward have created a memorial to both Mr. Krabs and his daughter Pearl near his restaurant.
	+ A second cutscene shows Berry the Bear becoming upset that all the characters have collected all the Goofy Goober Tokens he stole and that Krabs took his bike (but later felt happy that he was dead). Without anything left to do, he disappeared into a non-visible with a sign of confusion, just then he heard a noise and is confronted by an unseen voice that tells Berry to get out.)
		- The text then appears that reads "To Be Continued in Strange Terror from the Deep". This is foreshadowing an update Dave Microwave Games plans for his game: Strange Terror from the Deep, which will feature Berry the Bear and expand upon his story.
			* The character that Berry is arguing with offscreen is Captain Harry, a character from Strange Terror from the Deep. In that game, he hid in the vents to survive the monster that was terrorizing the submersible, thus explaining why he was so quick to defend his personal space after Berry presumably teleported right next to him within the cramped vent.
			* The line Squidward says when he arrives in Rock Bottom "Oh, my aching tentacles." is a reference to the episode Pizza Delivery, where he says the same line at the end of the episode when he realized he had to return to work.
