Scenes with King Neptune
4 scenesLet's hear it for SpongeBob! [realizes everyone ran off] Hello? Where did everybody go? Did I miss something? Did you see my butt?
Later that evening.
About another time to put Plan Z into effect. Starting at the undersea castle of King Neptune.
Oh, right. The royal court is now in session. Bring the prisoner forward.
So, you have confessed to the crime of touching the king's crown?
Yes, but-
BUT WHAT?!
But it's my job, your highness. I'm the royal crown polisher.
Well then, I guess I can't execute you. 20 years in the dungeon, it is.
Daddy! You're free to go.
Bless you, Princess Mindy. [He runs away.]
Mindy, how dare you defy me?
Why do you need to be very mean?
I am the king. I must enforce for the laws of the sea.
Father, I wish you'd try a little love and compassion instead of these harsh punishments.
That would be nice.
Squire! Clear the room. I wish to speak to my daughter alone. [Everyone else leaves.] What's this, Mindy?
Your crown?
And what does this crown do?
Covers your bald spot.
It's not bald, it's thinning. This crown does much more than cover a slightly receding hairline. No, this crown entitles the one who wears it to be in charge of the sea. One day, you will wear this crown.
I'm gonna be bald?
Thinning! Anyway, the point is, you won't wear it until you learn to rule with an iron fist, like your father.
Uh, Dad? Your "crown"?
What the? MY CROWN!!!! AHHHHHH! Someone has stolen the royal crown!
I got it! I got it!
$101 for a Krabby Patty?
With cheese, Mr. Squidward, with cheese.
Greetings, subjects. I seek the one known as Eugene Krabs. May he present himself to me at once.
I am Eugene Krabs, Your Highness. Would you like to order somethin'?
NAY!!! I'm onto you, Krabs! You have stolen the royal crown, you cannot deny! For, clever as you are, you left one damning piece of evidence at the scene of the crime! [shows him a note]
"I stole your crown. Signed, EUGENE KRABS?!
Relinquish the royal crown to me AT ONCE!
B-But, this is crazy! I didn't do it!
Ahoy! This is Eugene Krabs! Leave a message.
Hi, Mr. Krabs, this is Clay, the guy you sold Neptune's crown to? Yeah. I just wanted to say thanks again for sellin' me the crown. Neptune's crown. I sold it to a guy in Shell City and, uh, I just wanted to say thanks again for sellin' the crown. Neptune's crown. Which is now in Shell City. Goodbye.
MY CROWN IS IN THE FORBIDDEN SHELL CITY?! WAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! [Scene cuts to Plankton on the phone]
Plan Z, I love Plan Z.
WAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! Prepare to burn, Krabs! [lights his trident]
Wait, Neptune! Please, I'm beggin' ya! I ain't a crook! Ask anyone, they'll vouch for me!
Very well, then. [extinguishes his trident] Before I turn this conniving crustacean into fish-meal, who here has anything to say about Eugene Krabs?
SpongeBob, me boy, oh, you've come just in time. Please tell King Neptune all about me.
I have worked for Mr. Krabs for... [burps] many years and always thought he was a great boss.
You see? A great boss.
I now realize that he's a great... big... jerk! [Mr. Krabs turns to SpongeBob] I deserved that manager's job! [grabs Mr. Krabs upsettingly] But you didn't give it to me, 'cause you say I'm a kid. Well, I am 100% man! And this... man... has got something to say to you. [takes a deep breath and blows a long raspberry] There, I think I've made my point.
Anyone else? No? Well, then. [fires at Mr. Krabs, causing him to burn his butt]
Ooh! Me pants are on fire! Me underwear's on fire! I'm on fire! [he dives into a bucket of water] Oh, yeah.
And now, Eugene Krabs, [prepares to blast Mr. Krabs again] you... will... [SpongeBob grips onto King Neptune's nose]
Wait! I'm flattered you would do this on my account, but being manager isn't worth killing Mr. Krabs over.
Quiet, fool! Mr. Krabs stole my crown, and now it's in Shell City. That's why he must die.
Doesn't it seem a little harsh to kill someone over a crown?
You don't understand! My crown is a symbol of my king like authority. And, uh, between you and me, my hair is thinning a bit.
Oh, your highness, I'm sure it's not that notice... Baaaald! Bald! Bald! Bald!
Bald! Bald! Bald! Bald!
MY EYES!
Alright, alright.
Uh, King Neptune, sir? Would you spare Mr. Krabs' life if I went to get your crown back?
YOU, go to Shell City?! [laughs] No one who's gone to Shell City has ever returned! What makes you think you could? You're just a kid. [throws SpongeBob to the floor]
Run along. I have a crab to cook. [lights his trident]
No!
Very well, then. I'll have to fry you both!
Daddy, stop it! Can't you get through one day without executing someone?
Mindy? I told you to stay in the carriage!
Where's your love and compassion? [holds up SpongeBob] Look at this little guy! He's willing to risk his life to find your crown and save his boss.
But, daughter, I...
Please, Father, at least let him try... What have you got to lose? Might I remind you of your... special problem? [removes the paper bag, once again revealing the shiny bald spot]
Bald! Bald! Bald! Bald! Bald!
Bald!
Very well, Mindy. I'll give him a chance. But when your little champion fails to return, I get to splatter this crab all over the walls!
Huh?
And as for you, be back here with my crown in exactly ten days.
Eight.
Seven.
Six.
Patrick! [they tackle him]
Six it is, then.
Patrick, shush!
Until then, the crab shall remain frozen where he now stands.
No, wait, I'm beggin' ya! [King Neptune freezes him]
Who turned on the AC? Ah! Mr. Krabs! Oh, no, this is terrible! Who's gonna sign my paycheck?
Come along, Mindy.
Listen, you guys, the road to Shell City is really dangerous. There's crooks, killers, and monsters everywhere! And what's worse, there's a giant Cyclops who guards the outskirts of the city, and preys on innocent sea creatures! Don't let him catch you, because if he does, he'll take you back to his lair, and you'll never be seen again!
She's pretty, SpongeBob.
Here, take this.
What's in here? [opens the bag and wind blows into his face]
It's a magical bag of winds. I stole them from my father.
You're hot.
Once you find the crown, open the bag of winds, and you'll be blown back home.
Hooray for Hasselhoff! Nothing can stop us now!
Huh? Unidentified object off the hindquarters.
It looks like... Bigger boot. But how? AAHH! DENNIS!
Did you miss me?
This is the best seat in the house. Alright, Neptune, let's get it on!
Eugene Krabs, your six day reprieve is up, and it is time for you to die.
Please, I didn't do it!
There is nothing else I can do.
You can give SpongeBob and Patrick a little more time.
Except give SpongeBob and Patrick a little more ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-time---- WHAT? Mindy, will you butt out? I won't have you stalling this execution.
Stalling? I'm not stalling anything.
Yes, you are.
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are. You're doing it right now.
I'm stalling?
Yes.
Stalling?
Stalling!
Stalling.
Stalling!
Oh, boy.
Now, where were we?
Patrick, run!
No! I'm tired of running. If we run now, we'll never stop- [Dennis knocks him away] Run, SpongeBob!
Ahhhhhh! [He slides down David's rear, but Dennis stabs it with his knife]
Ooh! Take it easy back there, fellas.
SpongeBob, be careful!
Come on, kid, give it up. Dennis always gets his man.
NEVER!!!!!!!!!! [jumps to Hasselhoff's other leg] Yeah, I did it!
You got guts, kid. Too bad I gotta rip 'em outta ya.
Uh, I don't know what Plankton's paying you, but if you let us go, I can make it worth your while. [presents a stack of Goober Dollars]
Uh, that, sir, is 5 Goober Dollars. Legal tender at any participating Goofy Goober - [Dennis furiously grabs him by the shirt] I got bubbles. Fun at parties. [Blows them at Dennis's face]
My eyes!
I got you, SpongeBob!
Thanks, buddy. Yeah, thanks a lot.
See ya.
No! No! No! Oh, SpongeBob, wherever you are, you better hurry.
OK, fellas, this is where you get off. Bikini Bottom is directly below.
But we'll never be able to float down in time.
Who said anything about floating?
Initiating launch sequence.
What the...?
The control.
All hands on deck!
10 seconds to liftoff. 10, 9, 8...
Eugene Krabs, the time has come... [lights his trident]
No.
Yes.
...7, 6, 5...
...for you...
No.
Yes.
...4, 3, 2...
...to fry.
No.
Yes.
...1.
No!
You've done good, Hasselhoff. You've done... [the ray of light zaps him] Ow.
Hooray! We made it!
We made it!
My crown! My beautiful crown! [kisses it]
SpongeBob, Patrick? [hugs them] I knew you could do it!
Sorry to rain on your parade, Plankton.
Oh, don't worry about me. My parade shall be quite dry under my umbrella!
Umbrella?
