Who sticks thorns in you--so you can save the town? Idiot Friends--Idiot Friends--Idiot Friends! Da doot dot doo dat do dot do doo? Idiot Friends! Da doo dot dow dat dow doot dot dee? Idiot Friends! Who helps you pick your pants up off the ground? Idiot Friends! Only an Idiot Friend would do that!

Plot
At the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob discovers that Patrick has a famous relative named Patrick Revere who warned Bikini Bottom that Mollusks are coming. Too bad no one listened to him. Mr. Krabs told the two of his great-grandpappy Krabs, who invented a painful security invention that hurts the fingers of anyone who touches the booby trapped dollar bill. While walking, SpongeBob runs into Sandy who revealed that she has a relative named Rosy Cheeks was the first squirrel to discover oil in Texas. Feeling sorry for SpongeBob, Sandy takes him to the library to "dig around his family tree".SpongeBob learns that he the great-great-great grandson of a western hero, Sheriff SpongeBuck SquarePants. Sandy tells SpongeBob the story of SpongeBuck SquarePants. SpongeBuck arrived to a town named Dead Eye Gulch and goes to the theater/saloon (west Krusty Krab). SpongeBuck gets to be a Sheriff by Mr. Krabs' ancestor. But then a villain Dead Eye Plankton arrives there and SpongeBuck must face him at high noon (12:00 PM). SpongeBuck gets kicked away and Patrick's ancestor meets him. SpongeBuck gets a nickname for him and it's Idiot Friend. Patrick's ancestor tells him to defeat Dead Eye Plankton by smacking him a lot. When they get back to town (via a giant cactus that made SpongeBuck and Patrick's ancestor jump so high they landed in Dead Eye Gulch) SpongeBuck meets Dead Eye Plankton and the two walk towards each other as though it was a western dual. But he steps on him. Like that, Dead Eye is defeated. Then, all of Dead Eye Gulch (now renamed Bikini Bottom) builds a golden statue of SpongeBuck (Squidward's ancestor liked his design better, which was him as a muscled man). SpongeBob soon realizes that the statue is really covered in jellyfish poop, hence the statue's different look. He cleans it up, which disgusts Sandy. After that, Spongebob and Sandy walk away, while SpongeBob is saying that maybe someday people will know the name SpongeBob SquarePants. Then, in the epiloge SpongeBuck and Patrick's ancestor sing a song called "Idiot Friends."
