• SpongeBob: [Shakes around tennis racket] Who's there? Stay back, I'm armed. [Slips on a toy fire truck] Whoa! Whoa! [Falls down stairs]
• SpongeBob: Ha, hey! [Flicks on the light switch. Novelty teeth chattering] Ah Ha! Wind-Up novelty teeth. How did you wind up down here [laughs]. [Fancy boot runs in circles]
• SpongeBob: What the heck is going on with my fancy boot? [Goes over to fancy boot] Hey, knock it off! [Boot goes in circles faster]
• SpongeBob: Alright, I warned you! [Whacks boot. The racket comes back around and hits SpongeBob in the face] You're a dirty fighter! Hmm, I gotcha now! Hi ya! [Karate chops boot. Gary bounces out]

• Gary: Moooooooowww.
• SpongeBob: Of course it's a shell! [Gary looks at SpongeBob sternly] Oh, c'mon, don't look at me like that. [The slime on Gary's back covers the pants and the wet pants go soggy].
• Gary: Moooowww.

DA-HA-HA-DA-HA-HA. [takes off helmet] I bet this'll look great. [Puffy skin swirls up inside helmet]. Eeewww. I can see why snail shells aren't clear. [Takes helmet from Gary] Hmmmm.
• Gary: Mooowww.

This stylish, fully insulated, dual coat ceramic shell comes with automatic restroom facilities standard, and for the affordable price of $9,595.95! Isn't there a place I can get a quality shell without spending a fortune!?
• Gary: Mooowww.
• SpongeBob: Commercial? What commercial? [TV is on]
• Commercial Voice: Uh-Oh! Now look what you've done, you've broke your snail's shell again. [Man sweeping up snail shell pieces]
• Man: Yeah. Now what do I do?

• SpongeBob: Oh, sorry, Angry Jack, eh, Gary here needs a new shell, and we knew you would help us find one. Hey, shouldn't you be yelling at me right now?
• Angry Jack: Nah, I just do that to make my commercials louder. And louder, is the same as better! Now, let's see if I can't get you into a new shell. Hmmm. [starts scanning shelves] There she is. [Takes the same shell as Gary's old one] There ya go, little guy.

• SpongeBob: Now, it... really looks like the old one, eh, buddy?
• Gary: [Angry tone of voice] Meowwweeooowww!
• Angry Jack: Hey, accidents'll happen. Why don't we try this one? [Picks up yellow shell with orange patches]
• SpongeBob: Oooohh, that's nice, love the pattern. We'll take it, but first I gotta make sure it's battened down. We don't want this one slippin' off, eh, buddy? [SpongeBob pushes down shell so hard it cracks and breaks. Angry Jack looks at SpongeBob angrily]
• SpongeBob: Oops. Hey, what about that one? [Walks to a shell with purple and orange stripes on it. Turns around to take to Gary, but whacks it on Angry Jack]
• SpongeBob: Oops, sorry, Jack. Hey, how much is that one? [Picks up shades of pink stripes. Trips over lace and drops shell]
• Angry Jack: Why don't you just hold your snail? I'll take care of the shells.
• SpongeBob: Good idea, Angry.
• Angry Jack: So, how do ya like this one? [Puts on very bright-lighted shell]
• SpongeBob: Well it... certainly is shiny.
• Angry Jack: It's our most reflective model.
• SpongeBob: Ah, that is bright. Can't... see! OW, what was that!? [Bashes into shell shelves and knocks them over one by one. Shelves knock each other over like dominoes. Some shell shelves spell 'oops']
• SpongeBob: Why... can't... I... stop... break-ing... shells!? [Screams and falls off shelf he was running along. View from outside Angry Jack's store]
• SpongeBob: Whoops. Hey, Jack, I don't suppose you have any more to show me?
• Angry Jack: I do have one more available. It's the only certified indestructible shell I've ever seen, but I'm sure you'll find a way.
• SpongeBob: Wait, wait, wait! Before we do the hand-off, let me make some precautionary measures. Okay, first, [shoes pop from under shell bits] shoes are tied, hands are de-ry [pronounced dry] and now, a thick layer of bubble wrap. [starts wrapping shell in bubble wrap. Picks up shell, but the actual shell falls out of the bubble wrap layer and breaks]
• SpongeBob: You, er... sure you don't have any more in the back?
• Angry Jack: The back? There is no back anymore.
• SpongeBob: Well, look on the bright side, I reduced your inventory for ya.
• Angry Jack: Reduced? You destroyed everything! AND NOW, YOU’RE GONNA HAVE TO PAY!
• SpongeBob: Are you really angry or ya just trying to sound louder?
• Angry Jack: I'm really angry!
• Commercial Voice: Blistering Fury!
• Angry Jack: And I demand immediate payment!
• SpongeBob: [Takes about 40 cents out his pocket] Take it, it's all my savings.
• Angry Jack: This? This isn't enough to repay my fortune! I'm gonna need more!
• SpongeBob: Sorry, that's all I got, honest.
• Angry Jack: No, it's not! You've got two arms and two legs, don't ya?
• SpongeBob: Yeah.
• Angry Jack: Give me one of each!
• SpongeBob: Okay. [Takes off one arm and one leg and gives them to Angry Jack]
• Angry Jack: I'll also need some internal organs. [SpongeBob takes out his heart and gives it to Angry Jack] And an eyeball! [SpongeBob hands over an eyeball] And your clothes. [SpongeBob refuses and walks away fully formed again]
• SpongeBob: [sadly] Oh, Gary. How I wish your shell could grow back like my appendages. [sees box] Hey, I've got an idea! [SpongeBob draws a shell pattern on the box]
• Gary: [angry tone] Meow.
• SpongeBob: Oh, Gary, it's not that bad! Square looks good on anybody!

• Mr. Krabs: Well, I just, uh, well never mind that, boy. What's your problem?
• SpongeBob: I destroyed Gary's shell, and now I can't find a replacement... So I guess he'll just spend the rest of his days as a lowly slug! [bawling]
• Gary: Mwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaa!
• Mr. Krabs: There, there, boy. There, there. It's not that bad. I'm sure you'll thinka something.
• SpongeBob: [looks at Mr. Krabs' shiny shell and has an idea] Mr. Krabs, perhaps you can help me find a new shell for Gary.
• Mr. Krabs: Well, I'd be honored to help you and your snivelin' snail during such desperate times. I love helping others. Like helping meself. Now, how much ya got?
• SpongeBob: Nothing, Mr. Krabs. I'm broke.
• Mr. Krabs: Oh. I see [walks away disappointed]
• SpongeBob: Wait, Mr. Krabs! If you help me get Gary a shell, I'll, work for free for the rest of the year.
• Mr. Krabs: Only if I get to cut your health benefit for ya.
• SpongeBob: Deal! [Cut to SpongeBob's house, he has the same nightmare from the beginning, and woke up again] Oh, another bad dream. [Screams, He shines a flashlight at Gary] Mr. Krabs?
• Gary: Meow.
• SpongeBob: Oh, sorry, Gary, I'm not used to your new shell. [Mr. Krabs comes in]
• Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob, me boy, I need to borrow a blanket.
• SpongeBob: There ya go, Mr. Krabs.
• Mr. Krabs: Thanks, boy-o. Now I'm all toasty.
• SpongeBob: [sighs] I guess "All's shell that ends shell. Huh, Gary? [he laughs as Gary goes furious and crawls back, Gary slams the door locking SpongeBob out] Gary? Gary? [Gary turns off the bedroom light] Gary?!
