  • [SpongeBob is sitting inside of his mailbox, happily humming. He checks his watch. Incidental 154 arrives, opens the mailbox, and SpongeBob suddenly pops out.]
  • SpongeBob: Hi, mailman!
  • [Incidental 154 drops his mail, screams in terror, and runs away.]
  • SpongeBob: Okay, [gets out of the mailbox] see you tomorrow!
  • Patrick: [walks up] Hey, the mail's here! What did you get?
  • SpongeBob: Let's see... [looks through the mail] Gary, Gary, Gary, Gary, Gary, Gary, hey! A magazine! [looks at the magazine] That's funny, I don't remember subscribing to Fancy Living Digest.
  • SpongeBob and Patrick: [look inside the magazine] Whoa!
  • SpongeBob: Look at these glossy depictions of a higher standard of living! [a picture of a rich person's swimming pool is shown. It has an inflatable pool floating in the water.] This guy's so rich, he has a swimming pool in his swimming pool!
  • [A picture is shown of an old, rich person surrounded with bags of money.]
  • Patrick: [points at the man's feet] This guy's got shoes!
  • Squidward: Give me that! [takes the magazine out of SpongeBob's hands] Stealing my mail, eh? You're lucky I don't report you to the authorities!
  • SpongeBob: Hey, Squidward, how do the people in that magazine get all that money?
  • Squidward: They're entrepreneurs. They sell things to people.
  • SpongeBob: What kind of things?
  • Squidward: How should I know? Things people want to buy! [walks off] Now keep your paws off my mail.
  • SpongeBob: That's it, Patrick! We gotta become entrepreneurs!
  • Patrick: Is that gonna hurt?
  • SpongeBob: Quick, Patrick, without thinking, if you could have anything in the world right now, what would it be?
  • Patrick: Uh... [sweats] More time for thinking.
  • SpongeBob: No, something real, an item, something you would pay for.
  • Patrick: [pops up behind him] A chocolate bar?
  • SpongeBob: That's a great idea, Pat! We'll become traveling chocolate bar salesmen!
  • [The scene changes to SpongeBob and Patrick exiting the Barg'N-Mart carrying many chocolate bars.]
  • SpongeBob: Fancy living, here we come!
  • Patrick: Make way for a couple of entrepe-nooers!
  • [SpongeBob and Patrick walk up to a house.]
  • SpongeBob: Okay, Patrick, this is it! The first step on our road to living fancy! Just follow my lead.
  • [SpongeBob runs up and knocks on the door. Incidental 6 opens the door.]
  • SpongeBob: Good afternoon, sir, could we interest you in some [holds up a chocolate bar] chocolate?
  • Incidental 6: Chocolate? Did you say, chocolate?
  • Patrick: Yes, sir. [holds up two chocolate bars] With or without nuts?
  • Incidental 6: Chocolate?! [screaming] Chocolate?! Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate!
  • [SpongeBob and Patrick slowly back away, and then run off. Incidental 6 chases them while madly screaming "Chocolate!". The scene cuts to SpongeBob ringing the doorbell of another house.]
  • SpongeBob: Okay, the first guy didn't count. This is our real first step! [Incidental 118C opens the door] Good morning, sir! Would you like to buy some chocolate?
  • Incidental 118C: Chocolate bars, eh?
  • SpongeBob: Yes, sir, we are chocolate bar salesmen!
  • Incidental 118C: Ha! A couple of mediocre salesmen if you ask me. That's no way to carry your merchandise! [Patrick is shown holding many chocolate bars in his pants, and he quickly looks at them] No, no, no, no, wrong. You guys wanna be good salesmen, right?
  • SpongeBob and Patrick: Oh, most certainly, sir!
  • Incidental 118C: Well, [chuckles] no self-respecting candy bar salesman would be caught dead without one of these! [holds up a bright-orange bag]
  • SpongeBob: Wow... what is it?
  • Incidental 118C: It's a candy bar bag, you knucklehead! It's specially designed to cradle each candy bar in velvet-lined comfort!
  • [SpongeBob tries to touch it.]
  • Incidental 118C: [pulls the bag away] But, I'm wasting my time. [walks inside] You don't need these bags.
  • SpongeBob and Patrick: We need 'em! We need 'em!
  • [Incidental 118C grins. The scene changes to Incidental 118C counting money. SpongeBob and Patrick are walking away with armfuls of bags.]
  • Incidental 118C: So long, boys! Happy hunting! [laughs when the two aren't looking] Suckers... [walks back inside and closes the door]
  • SpongeBob and Patrick: [singing as they run off] Fancy livin', here we come! La la la la, la!
  • SpongeBob: Let's try next door! [walks up and rings the doorbell with his foot. Incidental 118C comes out]
  • Incidental 118C: Yes?
  • SpongeBob: [suspicious] Huh? Say, weren't you the same guy who sold us these candy bar bags?
  • Incidental 118C: I... don't recall. But it looks to me like you fellas have got a lot of bags there. You two lady killers are too smart to be without one of my patented Candy Bar Bag Carrying Bags. [holds up two large maroon bags]
  • Patrick: We'll take 20!
  • [The scene changes to SpongeBob knocking on the door of a different house. Incidental 49 comes out.]
  • Incidental 49: Oh, what can I do for you two nice young men?
  • SpongeBob: We're selling chocolate bars. Would you like to buy one?
  • Incidental 49: That sounds heavenly! I'll take one.
  • SpongeBob: One chocolate bar, coming up! [opens up a bag, only to find another bag] Huh? Eh... Huh? Huh? Uh, uh, uh... [attempts to pull out a chocolate bar, but keeps pulling more bags, while Patrick is zipping and unzipping his pants]
  • SpongeBob: I know they're in here somewhere!
  • Incidental 49: [looks at her watch] I don't have time for this. [goes back inside, and then suddenly SpongeBob pulls out a chocolate bar]
  • SpongeBob: I've got it! One chocolate bar for the nice— [sees something off camera; it is revealed to be Incidental 6, still screaming]
  • Incidental 6: Chocolate!
  • SpongeBob: —lady.
  • Incidental 6: Chocolate! Chocolate! Chocolate! [He chases SpongeBob and Patrick.]
  • [Bubble transition to SpongeBob and Patrick sitting in a diner.]
  • SpongeBob: We're not doing so well, Patrick. We need a new approach, a new tactic.
  • Patrick: Huh... I got it! Let's get naked!
  • SpongeBob: No, let's save that for when we're selling real estate. There must be something. What was the reason we bought those bags?
  • Patrick: He said we were mediocre...
  • SpongeBob: That's it! He made us feel special!
  • Patrick: Yeah, he did... I'm going back to buy more bags! [runs to the door]
  • SpongeBob: No, wait, Patrick! [Patrick freezes in place] Why don't we try being nice?
  • Patrick: Oh, okay.
  • [The scene changes to SpongeBob and Patrick walking up to a customer's door.]
  • SpongeBob: Remember, Patrick, flatter the customer. Make him feel good.
  • [Patrick knocks on the door. Incidental 60 opens the door.]
  • Incidental 60: Hello?
  • Patrick: I love you.
  • [A harp is heard playing. Incidental 60 stares at SpongeBob and Patrick for a few seconds, then he slams his door shut in disgust; a tuba is heard playing after the slamming.]
  • SpongeBob: I think you laid it on a teensy bit thick there, old pal. Let me try. [rings the doorbell. Incidental 60 opens the door]
  • Incidental 60: Please. G-Go away!
  • SpongeBob: Um, [clears his throat] H-H-How you doin'?
  • Incidental 60: How am I doing?
  • SpongeBob: Wanna buy some chocolate?
  • Patrick: We got him now!
  • Incidental 60: Sorry, chocolate has sugar and sugar turns to bubbling fat. Isn't that right, lover boy?
  • [Patrick's belly is bubbling.]
  • Patrick: Hee hee, it tickles!
  • Incidental 60: As you can see, me and chocolate no longer hang. [holds up a picture of him being obese at age 13] You can keep that for five bucks.
  • Patrick: I'll take ten!
  • [Cut to SpongeBob with a sad look on his face walking. A sad song plays.]
  • SpongeBob: We haven't sold one chocolate bar. I got a feeling that we're too easily distracted.
  • [Cut to Patrick staring at the pictures.]
  • Patrick: Huh?
  • [Far cut.]
  • SpongeBob: [raises his fist] Let's make a pact right now that we will stay focused on selling at the next house.
  • Patrick: [removes the pictures from his face] What?
  • SpongeBob: [holds out his hand] Let's shake on it.
  • Patrick: [looks at SpongeBob confused] Did you say something?
  • [Cut to the other customer's house. SpongeBob and Patrick are seen entering the view.]

  • Patrick: Oof! [moves his eyes around] Nice place you got in here.
  • [Bubble transition to the next scene. Patrick is eating a chocolate bar.]
  • SpongeBob: I can't understand what we're doing wrong.
  • Patrick: I can't understand anything.
  • SpongeBob: There must be something to this selling game that we're just not getting. Other people do it, I mean look at that!
  • [Cut to the sign.]
  • Patrick: [reading the sign] Eat Barnacle Chips, they're delicious.
  • SpongeBob: They are most certainly not delicious!
  • Patrick: [smiling] Not the way I use 'em!
  • SpongeBob: Yet they sell millions of bags a day!
  • Patrick: Well, maybe if they didn't stretch the truth, they wouldn't sell as many.
  • SpongeBob: [happily] That's it, Patrick! We've gotta stretch the truth!
  • Incidental 6: Chocolate!
  • [SpongeBob and Patrick run off. Cut to another house.]
  • SpongeBob: We'll work as a team. Let me get this customer warmed up, and then you come in for the kill!

  • [Cut to Incidental 87.]
  • Mary: Mom!
  • Baby Prunes: [enters from the right side of the house in a wheelchair. She is seen shriveled up to the point where she appears to be merely a head and a spine] What, what, what's all the yelling?
  • [Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick who have stunned looks on their faces. Cut back to mom.]
  • Baby Prunes: You just can't wait for me to die, can you?
  • [Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick.]

  • Incidental 87: Chocolates!
  • Baby Prunes: What?
  • Incidental 87: Chocolates!
  • Baby Prunes: I can't hear you!
  • Incidental 87: They're selling chocolates!
  • Baby Prunes: They're selling chocolate?
  • Incidental 87: Yeah!
  • [Cut to a close-up of mom smiling.]
  • Baby Prunes: Chocolate. I remember when they first invented chocolate. Sweet, sweet chocolate.

  • Baby Prunes: I always hated it!
  • [Cut to SpongeBob sweating.]

  • Incidental 87: [looks at SpongeBob and Patrick angrily] I hate you. [slams the door. Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick]
  • SpongeBob: If we keep exaggerating the truth, we'll be fancy living in no time!
  • Patrick: [raises his fist] Hooray for lying!
  • [Bubbles transition to SpongeBob and Patrick. Patrick is seen with a look that was about to make him laugh.]
  • SpongeBob: It'll make your hair grow.
  • [Cut to Fred.]
  • Fred: Great! My wife's trying to grow a beard!
  • [Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick. Patrick has a sad face this time.]
  • SpongeBob: They'll make you sound smart.
  • [Cut to the customer holding money.]
  • Customer: [southern accent] I'll take 20!
  • [Cut to Patrick.]
  • Patrick: It'll keep your face from getting any uglier.

  • [A "customer" opens the door slightly.]
  • Incidental 118C: What can I do for you boys?
  • [Cut to SpongeBob.]
  • SpongeBob: Hello, sir. Would you like to buy a chocolate bar? We need an operation.
  • Incidental 118C: Really?
  • [Cut to the "customer", who apparently is in a cast covering his entire body. He limps out of the door at his doorstep.]
  • Incidental 118C: Small world. What's the matter with you guys?
  • [Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick, who are completely stunned.]
  • SpongeBob: [nervously] Uh... We've got some head trauma and eternal bleeding.
  • [Cut to the "customer".]
  • Incidental 118C: Ah, some guys have all the luck.
  • [A violin begins playing.]
  • Incidental 118C: I was born with glass bones and paper skin. Every morning, I break my legs, and every afternoon, I break my arms.
  • [Cut to SpongeBob and Patrick. They both have faces meaning that they were about to cry.]
  • Incidental 118C: At night, [as SpongeBob looks up sadly, a tear runs down his face] I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep.
  • [Cut to the "customer", the wires snap.]
  • Incidental 118C: [about to fall] Oh, no!
  • [A glass breaking sound is heard while the customer grunts while hitting the steps.]

  • [Cut to the "customer".]
  • Incidental 118C: There is one thing... as you can well imagine, my medical bills are extremely high, but luckily, I am able to keep myself alive by selling... chocolate bars. [gestures his head over to a massive stack of chocolate bar boxes.]
  • [Bubble transition to the next scene. Cut to the "customer" looking out his window as SpongeBob and Patrick walk by]

Ha ha ha!
  • Cut to the street.]
  • SpongeBob: [grunting] Don't get me wrong, Patrick. It's great that we helped that guy out, but there's no one left in town to sell chocolate bars to. [He trips up on a rock and falls.] Whoa! [makes another grunting noise. Cut to him with a box flat on his face] Let's face it, Patrick. We're failures.
  • Patrick: [walks in from the left, carrying a box] I can live with that. [places his box on SpongeBob's box and sits on it, making a small squeaking sound]
  • SpongeBob: Let's change our names to Why and Bother.
  • [Incidental 6 appears behind the box.]
