While Sandy and SpongeBob sit down to watch the clouds, she then challenges SpongeBob to a mountain-climbing contest, and she wins after a head start. SpongeBob challenges Sandy to a running race to the Krusty Krab, and he wins by the same means as Sandy. Sandy boasts that land creatures are better than sea creatures, saying that they have way more skills and abilities than any water breathers. SpongeBob and his friends stubbornly reject this allegation and point out things that Sandy can't do. She is angered, and takes off her helmet and her suit. She eventually can't breathe, and uses a pickle jar as a substitute helmet. To settle the issue, she challenges Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward to go above the surface for 1 minute, which they agree to do but almost chicken out at the last minute. Unwilling to let her win, they go up to the surface and find it to be pretty easy until they are attacked by a pair of hungry seagulls. Sandy rushes up to the surface to find her friends in danger, and beats up the seagulls to save her friends. Back on the ocean floor, the two sides come to the realization that everybody, sea and land creatures alike, are great at something, but nobody's great at everything. They then start cheering for being sorry to each other and SpongeBob and Sandy making up with each other. The seagulls are then shown all beaten up and sarcastically saying "Hooray" too.

Synopsis

While Sandy & SpongeBob are peacefully watching the clouds, Sandy then challenges SpongeBob to a mountain-climbing contest, which she wins after a head start. SpongeBob then challenges Sandy to a race to the Krusty Krab, and he wins by the same means as Sandy.

Sandy boasts that land creatures are better than sea creatures, saying that they have way more skills and abilities than any sea creature. SpongeBob & his friends stubbornly reject this allegation and point out things that Sandy can't do, such as breathe underwater. She is quickly intimidated and tears off her suit and her hemlet. She eventually can't breathe, and is forced to use a pickle jar as a makeshift air helmet. 

To settle the issue, she challenges Mr. Krabs, SpongeBob, Patrick, & Squidward to go above water for 1 minute, which they agree to do but almost chicken out at the last minute. Unwilling to let her win, they go up to the surface and find it to be pretty easy; that is, until they are attacked by a pair of hungry seagulls.

Sandy rushes up to the surface to find her friends in danger and beats up the seagulls to save her friends. Back on the ocean floor, the two sides come to the realization that everybody, sea and land creatures alike, are good at something, but nobody's good at everything. They then start cheering for being sorry to each other and SpongeBob & Sandy making up with each other.The seagulls are then shown all beaten up and sarcastically saying "Hooray" too.Template:Section-Expand
