Synopsis

One day, SpongeBob takes Gary to a snail park where Gary falls in love with a snail named Mary. Then Mary's Ex-boyfriend threatens Gary but Mary ignores him and falls in love with Gary which angers the other snail and tells Gary "When I'm done with you, your doctor won't know where to sow your lips back on." Then SpongeBob comes and tells Gary they're leaving along with Mary's owner. The next day, Gary sneaks out of the house to find Mary. SpongeBob awakes to find a picture of Mary which he thinks is Gary leading them to think that it is a ransom note from a snailnapper, so he sets out to "save" Gary. Meanwhile, Gary stays onto a sidewalk with dozens of snail owners having a stroll. Then he sees Mary's owner going into a pet store and goes in. The clerk thinks he's a stray and puts him on sale. A few seconds later, Mary's Ex- boyfriend and his friends ransack the store so that the clerk can tell him where Gary is. During the ransack, Gary escapes. The other snails see what appears to be Gary, only to find out it's a vicious poodle worm. Gary then sees Mary but sees her in a car and jumps on top of other cars in order to find her. They succeed, but SpongeBob finally finds them, along with the other snail. Then a man from a soap opera Gary was watching in the beginning finds Mary's owner, who turns out to be his lost love. Beside him is a handsome snail which Mary gets together with, which SpongeBob says to Gary, "That's gotta hurt, Gary" and the other snail forgives Gary and becomes friends with him by asking Gary if he wanted to go get seaweed noodle stew with him. The episode ends with SpongeBob saying "they grow up so fast."

Cultural References

When Mary's Ex-boyfriend announces to the giggling snails that they are on 'the list', it is a possible reference to Richard Nixon's infamous enemies list.

Errors

When Gary left the house to look for Mary in one shot, the lights are off then on. It's impossible for that to happen since Gary never had turned on the lights.
When Gary left the house, the house's door is open, but in the next scene, the door is seen closed.
Monica looks different at the end and in the beginning.
