## Transcript

SpongeBob narrating: "Previously on SpongeBob UltraPants…"

(Plankton clocks SpongeBob over the head with the skillet.)

SpongeBob: "Ouch!"

Plankton: "Now, I want you to give me the formula or else I’ll have no other choice but to use my secret weapon!"

SpongeBob: "What’s behind that red curtain?"

Plankton: "My newly-built army of...ANGLER ANDROIDS!"

Plankton rose in a giant robot Plankton: "You'll never beat me now!"

Mr. Krabs wearing battling armor: "I can take him!"

Squidward: "No, Eugene!"

SpongeBob: "He's too powerful!"

Mr. Krabs, on his knees, was breathing painfully and spit saliva at the ground his face was hovering over. Plankton put up both of his robot's hands and the lasers on the side of its arms started firing up, then shot a bright red laser outwards, getting bigger and bigger until the picture of this scene was just red! It then faded away, as Plankton was seen leaping out of the giant battle robot, the laser blast took up the remaining of its energy so it shut down, it started tearing apart as a result of Plankton firing the lasers at full blast, and the surrounding land had been decimated into ruins.

Plankton: "Well, Karen... I call that a win!"

(Start of episode.)

The scene opens to a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where all of the buildings and streets are in ruins and colored dark grey and black, as it's all been burnt by the wrath of time. The sky is colored a warm orange. No life. No activity. Absolute silence. Suddenly a circular bright blue colored portal appeared slightly above the ground, and SpongeBob and Squidward were tossed out of it, before it closed and disappeared. SpongeBob and Squidward got up from the ground.

SpongeBob: "What happened?"

Squidward: "SpongeBob… I think we died and went to Hell…"

SpongeBob: "That's impossible. I've done nothing to go to Hell."

Squidward: "But I have…"

Powtrickon, a primitive in evolution looking starfish with magical powers and black eyes, floated from the sky, down in front of SpongeBob and Squidward, holding onto Gary the snail.

Powtrickon: "You're not dead but Hell isn't far from the truth of where you are."

SpongeBob: "Gary?!"

Powtrickon: "Your little friend is safe with me. Him and I wandered the galaxy together for centuries in the Space Agency of Security before he was reborn into the body of a snail."

SpongeBob: "Where are we?"

Squidward: "And who are you?"

Powtrickon: "My name is Powtrickon. I come from a place long since gone, but I carry its memories with me. How I know you two is unimportant, but I traveled back in time to save you and Mr. Krabs seconds before Plankton would have killed you all. This is what the future will be like if Plankton takes over the world."

SpongeBob and Squidward's bodies started glowing a light blue color.

SpongeBob: "Ooo."

Powtrickon: "By the name of Neptune, I have given SpongeBob the powers of enhanced speed, reaction time, stamina and reflexes. Squidward, the abilities of long distance attacks, shooting fire out of his hands, and survival in harsh temperatures. Gary, quiet but strong. Now possesses stealth, combat skills, and the superpower to turn invisible. SpongeBob and Squidward, you two must find Mr. Krabs who was teleported somewhere else here then I'll send you all back to your correct timestamp then you need to fight to prevent Plankton from taking over. This is war now."

Squidward: "Can't you just travel through time again to redirect Mr. Krabs to the place we were teleported?"

Powtrickon: "No. Unfortunately, altering the same event more than once would create a paradox. When you and Mr. Krabs reunite, alert me with either one of these magical watches."

Powtrickon telepathically made two purple colored magic watches float to Squidward and SpongeBob and they each put on on their wrist.

Powtrickon: "Good luck."

A yellow light shined where Powtrickon was floating, then when it was gone, he had disappeared.

The scene cuts to SpongeBob and Squidward walking down a burnt road surrounded by city buildings in ruins.

SpongeBob: "Mr Krabs?"

Squidward: "Eugene?"

SpongeBob: "Mr. Kra-a-abs?"

Squidward: "SpongeBob… Look!"

Squidward pointed at one of the buildings in ruins…

SpongeBob: "My pineapple!"

SpongeBob ran up to his, almost completely destroyed, pineapple house and rubbed his hands on the now squishy rotted exterior of the house. He started crying, looking at what his home had become.

Squidward in a calming voice: "SpongeBob, please… Don't cry…"

Suddenly what's left of the building exploded, pushing SpongeBob and Squidward back!

In front of them, floated an aggressive looking robot, known as a Nefflotonic Android. It had its two hands aimed at SpongeBob and Squidward. On its palms are holes designed to shoot lasers out of. SpongeBob and Squidward looked at it.

Squidward: "What the heck?!"

Nefflotonic Android: "All remaining Earthlings must be destroyed by order of the Nefflotons."

The Nefflotonic Android's hands got ready to fire at them... Suddenly a muscular fish wearing a light gray hood, red gloves, and black armor, jumped into the air wielding a metal staff! He kicked the Nefflotonic Android, tilting it, making it accidentally fire its lasers into the sky!

Nefflotonic Android: "Defend! Defend!"

The staff guy jumped all around its shoulders as it fired lasers all around the sky! He started beating the Nefflotonic Android's head with his metal staff, leaving big dents! The Nefflotonic Android powered down and fell to the ground! The staff guy landed on his feet and continued beating it with his staff, cursing!

Staff guy: "Take that, you [dolphin noise] piece of [dolphin noise] [dolphin noise], [dolphin noise]."

SpongeBob and Squidward's jaws dropped to the floor.

Staff guy: "You two alright?"

SpongeBob: "I don't know what's going on-"

Staff guy: "Well, are you breathing?"

SpongeBob: "Yeah."

Staff guy: "Let's go!"

SpongeBob and Squidward followed the staff guy as he ran through the city, took a turn into an alley way, then jumped on a dumpster and bounced onto the roof of a city buildings, started leaping from building to building, then swung on an old tree that's seen better days. After swinging, they landed in the middle of a street and stood in front of a manhole cover. He picked it up and jumped into the manhole, followed by Squidward and SpongeBob. They ran through a sewers tunnel, and at the end of it, to SpongeBob and Squidward's surprise, there was a big underground room with weapons, chairs, beds, lights, and computers. Inside the room, were injured civilians recovering, laying in the beds, and an orange colored muscular male fish and a gray colored muscular female fish, both armed with guns on their back and in their pockets, were standing in front of the main computers in the room, watching SpongeBob, Squidward, and the guy with the staff run into the room.

SpongeBob: "Who are you people?"

The gray female fish: "You mean Michael didn't tell you?"

SpongeBob: "Who?"

The staff guy: "How many times must I tell you this? Michael is my old name, call me the Skull Crusher."

The gray female fish: "Again with that attitude."

Skull Crusher: "I don't have an attitude. I'm just sick of-"

"Enough!," said the orange male fish, who then told SpongeBob and Patrick: "This is the headquarters of the Nefflotons Rebellion. We recruit strong soldiers and give a place for innocent bystanders to recover until fully healed, or alternatively, shelter for them to hide in until the coast for them to go is clear. You've already met Michael, the man with the most stubborn pride. I'm the leader. My name is Isaac."

The female fish: "And my name is Ruth."

SpongeBob: "Well, I'm SpongeBob."

Squidward: "And I'm Squidward."

Skull Crusher talking to SpongeBob and Squidward: "So what's your angle in all of this?"

Squidward: "We don't really know… What happened here."

SpongeBob: "We're from the past and came here by accident. We need to find our friend, with big red claws."

A ringtone went off and Isaac looked at a watch on his wrist to read a message.

Isaac: "We have to meet up with a teammate who rescued people with injuries we must bring here."

Ruth: "We can help you two find your friend."

Skull Crusher: "No we can't."

Isaac: "We can, and we will! We're heroes. That's what we do."

Skrull Crusher sighed in frustration.

Isaac: "Let's take the pickle!"

Squidward: "The pickle?"

Isaac: "Yes."

Isaac pressed a button on a car key chain and suddenly an indestructible self driving six wheel van in the shape and color of a giant pickled came crashing through a wall in the underground room, and put on its breaks, besides Isaac.

SpongeBob: "WOAH!"

Isaac grinned and said: "Let's go."

The scene cut to Skull Crusher, Ruth, Isaac, SpongeBob, and Squidward sitting in the pickle van, as it drove itself.

Squidward: "So… What caused this apocalyptic future?"

Ruth sighed, then started saying: "There was a time when the world was all sunshine. Earth used to have the strongest forces in the galaxy and could probably take on any alien threat. Then one day, an evil man named Sheldon Plankton doomed us all. He took control over Earth, then replaced all of our well trained protective forces with robot soldiers designed to work for him, and he thought they could destroy any enemy, but he was wrong. One day, an alien race bent on taking control of every solar system in the universe, called the Nefflotonic, came to Earth and obliterated Plankton's army, took power over the entirety of Earth, and sent out ruthless robots called the Nefflotonic Androids to kill all remaining Earthlings who hadn't already been killed. Nothing's been the same since. Now to survive, you must be able to fend for yourself. So many people couldn't, my family… Ugh… But we're trying to make it a bit easier for people."

Squidward: "That's terrible."

SpongeBob looked saddened, and said quietly to himself: "I hope Gary survived…"

The scene cut to the view outside of the pickle van, as it stopped at a big junkyard on sandy land, and they all got out of the pickle van, walking into the junkyard.

Skull Crusher: "It's this place?"

Two lines(one on each side of the walkway) of fish soldiers that work for the Nefflotons Rebellion ran towards the pickle van, some holding guns, others carrying injured fish to the van.

Isaac talking to Skull Crusher: "Yup."

They walked up to a muscular purple colored male fish, who's also armed with guns.

"Great job, Bob," Isaac said to him.

Bob: "Thank you. I take pride in saving those who must be saved.

Skull Crusher, Isaac, and Ruth started walking back to the pickle van. SpongeBob and Squidward followed behind them, walking next to Bob.

SpongeBob: "So your name is Bob too? I'm SpongeBob! That's funny! What a small world!"

Bob frowned.

Bob: "Bigger than it seems…"

SpongeBob: "So, why are you here? Many survivors of the war against these aliens don't seem to put themselves in the battle intentionally. Why don't you just run the other direction like others do?"

Bob: "I have to put myself in the battle whether I like it or not. I'm trying to find my sweet Karessa… That's what I call my wife."

SpongeBob: "You lost your wife?"

Bob: "When the Nefflotons took over, they separated us. But I'll find her soon."

SpongeBob: "I believe in you. Just don't give up."

Bob's frown turned into a little smile.

Bob: "Thanks, fellow Bob."

SpongeBob: "No problem."

The scene cut to them all back in the pickle van, as it was driving itself again.

"I'm getting a call!," said Skull Crusher, sitting in front of a big screen computer inside the van.

Isaac: "Answer it!"

Skull Crusher pressed a button, answering the call, and the big screen computer showed a Nefflotonic leader, saying: "Hello! Can you see me?"

Skull Crusher said to himself, irritated: "Jersia…"

Jersia, the Neffloton, said: "Ah! Good! It appears I have something that's of value to you."

Jersia pulled at a chain, which pulled Mr. Krabs, wrapped in chains with a sock in his mouth, into the frame of the video call. He was conscious, and had eyes that showed an anxious expression.

Squidward: "Eugene!"

Isaac asked: "That's your friend?"

SpongeBob: "Yes."

Bob: "We'll find him."

Jersia said: "As I'm sure you will. But if you don't come here in under a half hour from now, I'll kill him!"

"I'm getting a location signal!" said Skull Crusher, as he turned off the video call.

Bob: "Good!"

Isaac: "Let's go!"

The scene cut to the outside view of the pickle van, as it quickly turned around and started speeding towards that direction. The scene then cut to inside a big warehouse, where Jersia stood next to Mr. Krabs chained to a chair, and Jersia was holding a gun. Suddenly, the pickle van crashed into the warehouse through a wall, and SpongeBob, Squidward, Skull Crusher, Ruth, Isaac, and a bunch of fish soldiers holding guns got out!

Skull Crusher: "Let him go!"

"Kill them!," yelled Jersia, pointing at them, as an army of Nefflotonic Androids started flying towards them, shooting lasers!

The fish soldiers were firing their guns at the Nefflotonic Androids, killing lots of them!  SpongeBob and Squidward got ready to use their superpowers for the first time, breathing in, and stretching their arms out to their side in slow motion… A Nefflotonic Android shot a laser at SpongeBob, but SpongeBob activated his super speed and ran out of the projectile of the laser shot, and destroyed the Nefflotonic Android extremely quickly! Squidward started shooting fire out of both of his hands at Nefflotonic Androids, making them start to melt and burn to death, as SpongeBob continued using his super speed to avoid lasers being shot at him and to continue quickly destroying Nefflotonic Androids without even being hit! Beside SpongeBob and Squidward, Skull Crusher was using his staff to tear many Nefflotonic Androids into pieces, while dodging lasers like a ninja! Ruth, Isaac, and Bob were also firing guns at the Nefflotonic Androids! And at last, it looked like all of the Nefflotonic Androids were destroyed, so they all stopped fighting them, and Skull Crusher grabbed a gun, then walked up to Jersia, holding it.

Jersia: "Don't shoot! Don't shoo-"

Suddenly, the scene cut away, as a gunshot sound was heard. The scene cut back to the heroes. They were about to unchain Mr. Krabs. Just then, one last remaining Nefflotonic Android shot a laser at Bob's chest!

Bob: "AAAGHH!!!!!!"

Bob fell backwards to the floor! Squidward shot fire at the remaining Nefflotonic Android, killing it.

SpongeBob: "BOB!!!"

SpongeBob ran over to Bob, who was still conscious but laying on the floor!

SpongeBob: "Come on, Bob. We gotta find your sweet Karessa."

Bob: "No! Wait!"

Bob's eyes started tearing up and he pointed to the ceiling.

Bob: "I think I see her."

Bob plopped his hand down and closed his eyes. SpongeBob looked taken back in shock by what he heard and saw.

Squidward: "SpongeBob, we can still save them both if we prevent any of this from happening in the first place."

SpongeBob stood up.

SpongeBob: "You're right."

They all walked over to Mr. Krabs, and Ruth shot a gun at the chains on Mr. Krabs, freeing him! Mr. Krabs got up from the chair, with a limp.

Squidward: "Easy, Mr. Krabs."

Mr. Krabs' legs gave out on him and he fell forward, being held back up by Squidward's arms.

Mr. Krabs: "Me boys, at least I'm still alive, but I won't be able to fight anyone after this. Imagine me from now on as… Just a guy in a chair."

SpongeBob: "You're more than that, Mr. Krabs! You represent the good in both of us!"

Squidward: "As much as I hate to agree with SpongeBob, he's right. You're the reason we're here."

SpongeBob: "Now let's kick Plankton's booty."

SpongeBob and Squidward pressed a button on their magic watches, alerting Powtrickon, who then appeared right in front of them.

Powtrickon: "Good job, boys! Now let's send you back home…"

A yellow light flashed where Powtrickon was floating, and where SpongeBob, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs were standing, then they all disappeared. The scene cut back to the present (non-post-apocalyptic) day. Plankton was leading his army of Angler Androids towards the mayor of Bikini Bottom's house.

Plankton: "March, my robotic minions! This way, onto the mayor who sleepeth now until we break into his house and kill him! HAHAHA!!!!"

"Not so fast, Plankton!," yelled SpongeBob, as he and Squidward then appeared in front of Plankton and his Angler Androids!

Plankton: "SpongeBob and Squidward?! I thought I killed you!"

Squidward: "Think again!"

Plankton: "Well, I'll make sure to this time!"

Plankton's Angler Androids started running towards SpongeBob and Squidward, as Plankton laughed maniacally! Since they don't carry guns, the Angler Androids were getting ready to punch SpongeBob and Squidward, though Squidward was shooting fire at some of them, and SpongeBob was using his super speed to destroy lots of them in rows all at once!

Squidward said to SpongeBob: "We're winning!"

Plankton: "NOOO!"

Plankton held out a red button and pressed it.

Plankton: "BRING ON THE BIG GUY!"

Five of the Angler Androids came together to morph into a really tall and round shaped Angler Android with huge fists! Squidward tried to shoot fire at it, but couldn't aim at it because three normal sized Angler Androids pushed up against Squidward, holding him back, as he struggled to break free! SpongeBob tried to run at the giant Angler Android, but despite his super speed, the giant Angler Android somehow saw him coming and put out it's giant sized palm, stopping SpongeBob in his place, and pickled him up in it's fist!

SpongeBob: "NOOOO!!!"

Squidward: "GAAH!!!!"

Plankton: "HAHAHAHA!!!!"

"MEOW!!!," yelled Gary, who then appeared, turning from invisible to visible, and jumped onto the giant Angler Androids and with his sharp teeth, tore it to shreds!

SpongeBob and Squidward, with Gary's help, destroyed the rest of the Angler Androids! They stood smuggly, in front of Plankton.

Plankton: "NOOO!!! IT'S NOT FAIR!!! FINE!!! WE'LL FIGHT AGAIN, SOMEDAY!!! SO LONG, HEROES!!! MWUHAHAHAHHA!!!!!"

Plankton set off in a jetpack, into the sky, and SpongeBob and Squidward couldn't catch him! The scene cut to inside SpongeBob's house, which SpongeBob and Squidward turned into their base, with new iron walls, lots of computers, and highly advanced technology, now the house is almost unrecognizable to how it looked like in the past. Mr. Krabs was sitting in a wheelchair, in a room with tons of computers. SpongeBob and Squidward entered the room.

Mr. Krabs: "You two made me proud today."

Squidward: "We saved the day and beat Plankton, but we got a glimpse of what the future would be like if we lost."

SpongeBob: "At least now we know what we're fighting for… To prevent a future where Plankton would be the leader of Earth and unable to defend the planet against an invasion of a race of blood thirsty aliens called the Nefflotons. I'm sure we'll have to encounter them one day… But it'd be better if we fight them than if Plankton does, because he wouldn't win. So we must keep making sure to thwart all of Plankton's attempts to take power of the Earth."

Suddenly, a yellow light flashed in the room, then Powtrickon appeared, floating in front of SpongeBob and Squidward.

SpongeBob: "Powtrickon?!"

Powtrickon: "Quick! I must introduce you and Squidward to someone I know! A few people actually!"

Squidward: "Who?!"

Powtrickon: "No time to explain! It's urgent! Come on!"

The three of them ran out of the room.
