• Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob?!
• SpongeBob: Yes, Mr. Krabs?

• SpongeBob: What's this, Mr. Krabs?
• Mr. Krabs: It's me credit card. You use it instead of money.
• SpongeBob: I can buy stuff with just this piece of plastic? I don't need money?
• Mr. Krabs: Exactly.
• SpongeBob: Wow.
• Mr. Krabs: Now remember, nothing's too good for me little Pearl. I wanted to give her nothing, but she's too good for that. Now follow her around and see what she likes. You know, do some detective work.
• SpongeBob: Detective work--I'm going undercover.
• [later at the Bikini Bottom Mall]
• Pearl: So, that's when Marcy told me that Julie said that Angela did like Brad.
• Friend #1: Oh.
• SpongeBob: [peeking through a plant as he writes something down on a notepad] Angela likes Brad.
• Pearl: [holding up a purple, plastic comb] Oh my gosh, this is the greatest thing I have seen in the whole world.
• SpongeBob: [runs up to the cashier] I'd like to buy that piece of plastic with this piece of plastic. [giggles]
• Cashier: [looking at the credit card] Mr Krabs, huh? Quick--how do you spell "Krabs"?
• SpongeBob: Umm...I'm pretty sure it has a 'B' in it.
• Cashier: Close enough. [swipes the credit card through the machine] There you go, kid.
• SpongeBob: That's it? Hmmm, I'll never understand the workings of high finance.
• Pearl: [holding up lip gloss] Wow, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen in the whole world. Glitter gloss!
• SpongeBob: Oh, no, I bought the wrong present.
• Judy: Pearl, you have got to see this.
• Pearl: Coming, Judy.
• Mary: Oh...hmmm... [mirror flips around revealing SpongeBob. He takes the glitter gloss away from the elderly fish and the mirror flips back around]
• SpongeBob: Now this is obviously the greatest present ever.
• Pearl: [squeals] This is the greatest thing in the whole world! [SpongeBob sighs. back at the Krusty Krab where Squidward is nailing down a banner]
• Squidward: The banner's up, Mr. Krabs.
• Mr. Krabs: I've had that since the day she was born. I got it on sale.
• Squidward: I'm sure she'll love it, Mr. Krabs.
• [back at the mall]
• Pearl: This sea pony is the cutest thing ever. Do you want to come home and be my pony? [pony imagines Pearl being on its back] Whee! [pony shakes its head]

• [back at the Krusty Krab]
• Squidward: I finished Pearl's portrait, Mr. Krabs. It's a true masterpiece. [reveals a meat sculpture of Pearl]
• Mr. Krabs: Hey...maybe I should have hired that ice sculptor.
• Squidward: Ice sculptor? Any fool can sculpt in ice. It takes true genius to transform 400 pounds of raw krabby patties into a work of such majesty.
• Mr. Krabs: Yeah. Well, we've got the decor covered. Now how about entertainment? Pearl wants some boy band called 'Boys Who Cry'.
• Squidward: Boys Who Cry? They're my favorite band. They charge a million dollars just to show up. And if you want them to lip-sync, it'll run into real money.
• Mr. Krabs: You're a real fan, huh?
• Squidward: Oh yeah, I know all their songs.
• Mr. Krabs: All their songs?
• [back at the mall where Pearl and friends are gazing at a bunch of things and SpongeBob buys them all, including: a dress, sunglasses, a pair of platform shoes, and other gifts]
• Pearl: Wouldn't it be cool if my dad got me this for my birthday?
• Friend #1: It sure would be. If he was cool, which he's not. [laughs]
• Pearl: Yeah, he probably got me another box of staples.
• [back at the Krusty Krab]
• Mr. Krabs: It's almost time for the party to start!
• SpongeBob: I'm back, Mr. Krabs!
• Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob, what took you so long? And where's Pearl's present?
• SpongeBob: the delivery truck will be here momentarily.
• Squidward: Here she comes, Mr. Krabs.
• Mr. Krabs: Everybody get into position. [Pearl and friends enter]
• All: Happy birthday! [everyone is standing in front of the banner that reads 'IT'S A BOY GIRL']
• Judy: "It's a boy"?! [3 friends laugh]
• Pearl: Daddy! [friends walk over to the popcorn machine and try a bite. All gag & cough up the popcorn]
• Friend #1: Stale popcorn. [friends walk over to the punchbowl and take a sip] It tastes like dishwater.
• Squidward: It is dishwater. [friends cough out the punch]
• Pearl: [notices the sculpture] Is that supposed to be me? [head falls off] It's made out of krabby patties! Gross.
• Mr. Krabs: Who wants cake?
• Pearl: Well, the cake does look good. [all take a bite but spit it right back out] It's made out of cardboard?!
• Mr. Krabs: And frosting.
• Friend #1: Well, Pearl, 16 lame parties in a row. Must be a new record. Let's get out of here.
• Pearl: Wait, don't leave. My dad got Boys Who Cry to play. You did get Boys Who Cry, right?
• Mr. Krabs: Oh, even better sweetie. Hit it. [curtain unfolds as R & B Music beings to play with Squidward standing on the stage]

• Pearl: You ruined everything! You couldn't stop being cheap, even for me. [cries]
• Mr. Krabs: I'll make it up to you somehow, Pearl.
• SpongeBob: That's it. Back it up. Right there. Let 'er go! [dump truck full of presents unloads them all]
• Pearl: You bought me a boat?
• Mr. Krabs: I did? I mean...I did?
• Friends: Wow.
• Pearl: Oh, daddy, I don't know how it could get better than this.
• SpongeBob: Just watch. [signals on his walkie-talkie] Hit it boys! [big present at the top opens up]
