SpongeBob and Patrick are very bored and have nothing to do. While they are walking, they find some signs introducing something. They follow the signs to a newly opened [[Toy Barrel]]. At first it isn't there, but it
appears soon afterward, courtesy of a crane. They spend the entire day singing songs. To their disappointment, the Toy Barrel closes just after they finish singing. Patrick formulates a plan to hide in the dollhouses when the police check the toy store so they can have the Toy Barrel all to themselves. They become jolly until the lights turn off, which scares the duo. Soon, they see a shadow coming, so SpongeBob decides to fight back, but that does them no good. It was just Patrick's old wind-up robot. Just as the store is about to open, the two rush outside. The episode ends with Patrick saying “Hey! It’s open! I love toys!!"
