Plot

After another attempt to steal the formula is foiled by Mr. Krabs, Plankton creates a gas that turns people into babies.

He sets a trap for Mr. Krabs, who he sprays turns into a baby. Plankton steals the Krusty Krab key from him, but cannot reach the lock on the door. He asks SpongeBob to do this for him, and while Spongebob unlocks the door Plankton states his plan out loud. Spongebob calls the police, and Plankton is arrested, but escapes easily.

Plankton later returns, this time turning Spongebob into a baby, but at the same time sprays baby Mr. Krabs again, turning him back into an adult. Plankton is unable to turn them both at the babies at the same time, and is foiled once again. Plankton now realizes that a second dose of the gas reverses its effects.

Plankton next creates a gas that makes people old, and uses it on Spongebob and Mr. Krabs, rendering them helpless while he makes off with a Krabby Patty. However, they begin knitting a net, which Plankton is caught in and is subsequently beaten by a mob of old people.

Plankton returns yet again, this time turning everyone in the Krusty Krab into babies. Plankton easily takes the formula from the helpless Baby Krabs. However, Baby SpongeBob begins playing with the gas and causes it to blow up in the air and land on Plankton, who as a baby becomes microscopic, with ameoba floating around him.
