There we go!
Hey SpongeBob, I got all the leaves rake...
SpongeBob! What are all these leaves doing here?
You said you were going to rake 'em!
I am raking leaves.
But they're still all over the ground!
Sandy, I can't rake any faster!
These are big leaves!
And they keep breaking into more leaves!
Then go scrape the salt lick or somethin'!
We got to get this stuff done before it's too late!
What's the big rush anyway, Sandy?
I told ya, SpongeBob..
I'm hibernating next week!
Hibernating? What's that?
It's when I go to sleep for the whole winter.
Can I do that?
No, silly!
It's a mammalian thing!
Sandy, you may not have noticed...
but I is 100% m-male.
Enough chitter-chatter, SpongeBob.
We don't have much time left!
Why Sandy? When does your...
carburation begin?
In one week!
But Sandy.. that only gives us...
one... two... three...
168 more hours of playtime!
You're tellin' me!
And there's still so much to do!
We got to climb some things.
Climb!
We got to jump off of stuff.
Jump!
We got to ride!
Ride.
I don't wanna go to sleep yet!
I can't burn carbs in my sleep!
Sandy?
What?
Sandy, I'm willing to sacrifice
any of my time that I haven't already sold to Mr. Krabs to you.
Well, I'm glad, SpongeBob
'cause for the next seven days
it's going to be you... me...
and these sweatbands!
Yee-ha...!
Uh... I can explain.
I'm hotter than a hickory-smoked sausage!
Whoo-hoo!
Oop! Bleh...
Maybe, if we sing that song
he'll come to life!
Ready?
Life's as extreme
as you wanna make it!
Whoo!
Maybe we didn't sing it right.
Yeah...
Whew!
What a workout!
I'm going to be feeling this tomorrow. Ow.
I got to say, I'm impressed with you, SpongeBob!
You're makin' this the best pre-hibernation week ever!
Well.. I'd better get home
before Gary chews up the sofa again.
Goodnight, Gary!
Aah...!
Whoo-hoo!
Nothin' like a refreshing morning dip
huh, SpongeBob?
W-w-what h-h-happened to s-s-sleeping?
I'll be asleep all winter!
We only got three days for fun!
Well, hurry now!
The giant clams like to feed at this hour.
Isn't this great?
Yeah! I've never played extreme jacks before!
Okay, SpongeBob, this one's going to be fun!
We just whack each other with these giant ear cleaners
till one of us falls off!
On your mark... get set...
Sandy, are you sure
we're supposed to be standing up here?
Go!
Aah...
Ooh!
Come on, SpongeBob!
We're goin' for a tandem ride through the park.
Gee, that sounds safe.
I mean fun!
Okay, I'm ready.
I thought you said
we were riding through the park, Sandy!
I did, SpongeBob...
the industrial park!
This is where the real action is!
Come on, pedal!
This part gets pretty technical! Yee-haw!
Now for the speed course!
Hang on!
I hope we make it!
Aah... aah...!
I'm havin' fun, too!
Wake up, slowpoke!
We're goin' fly fishin'!
This squirrel's trying to kill me!
Any more of these stunts and I'll be reduced to a puddle!
Wait a minute... I got to talk my way out of this!
Sandy, I need to tell you something...
What is it?
Well, it's just
that I'm feeling sort of...
I just feel like maybe I need to...
Hold that thought, SpongeBob
'cause it's time for a down-home favorite!
Find the hay in the needle stack!
Ow, ow, ow-ow-ow, ooh, ow-ow-ow...
Ouch.
Did ya find it?
Not yet!
Well, I'm going to look over here!
You do that.
Found it, SpongeBob!
Come on! Best two outta three!
Got to hide! G-got to hide!
Home? No! Gary can't keep a secret!
Under a rock?
It's so original!
SpongeBob...?
Where are you, little square dude?
SpongeBob's tie!
And all his other little dressin's!
But... but... he always folds his clothes
before running around in the nude!
Something terrible must have happened to him!
All right! Listen up, y'all!
I'm roundin' up a search party!
SpongeBob's gone missin'!
Man the lifeboats!
Alpha Team, you search uptown!
Gold Team searches downtown.
Any questions?
Gold Team rules!
Now get movin'!
SpongeBob!
Someone look up there!
Here, boy!
Put your dorsal fins into it!
Come on!
He could be anywhere in these sulfur fields!
Hey, SpongeBob?
Well, at least I still have my personality.
Check in this here moist cave!
SpongeBob?
Aah...!
Status report!
He's not in the poison sea urchin cove.
Well, look again!
He's not at the leech farm.
Well, look again!
He's not in my thoughts.
Well, think again!
Attention, Bikini Bottom!
The time has come to double... no, triple our efforts!
How about a break?
We've been at it for days!
Think about the children!
That's a good idea!
Use the children to crawl into small places
you couldn't normally reach!
This is a load of barnacles.
I heard that!
No one's going anywhere
till we find SpongeBob!
Uh... oh, wait...
Um, here he is!
That ain't SpongeBob!
SpongeBob is square!
I'm ready! I'm ready!
No, you ain't!
I found SquareBob!
That's just a cereal box!
Besides, he's yellow!
Uh, here he is!
Hey, can I go home now?
Oh, look! He's up in the sky!
He's not... huh?
They must've gone to search some more!
SpongeBob?
Where are you?
You under there?
Nope!
Uh, I can explain.
SpongeBob?
Nope!
SpongeBob, where are you?
Nope... nope... nope...
That squirrel's gone crazy!
But she'll never look under a rock!
You said it!
Sandy'll never find us!
Hey, wait!
You don't understand!
Oh, look, it is I, SpongeBob
out here in the open.
SpongeBob?
Aah...!
Come on! Let me back in!
You don't understand!
Oh, SpongeBob!
I was so worried!
I thought somethin' terrible happened!
Come on! There's just enough time to go atom-smashing!
Sandy, wait!
There's no time to wait!
Hibernation!
Sandy, you got to make time!
This is important!
I... am a man!
Okay Sandy, I... I... I... I...
I can't play with you anymore!
I just can't take the games!
They're... tearing me apart!
There, I said it.
Now just promise we can still be friends.
Please, Sandy?
This isn't easy. I...
Sandy?
I never though I'd say it
but thank Neptune for hibernation!
Who are you people?
And now back to Crustacean Crime Theatre.
Stop! Thief!
Which way did he go?
He went that way!
Let's get 'em, boys!
Curses! Foiled again!
What a no-good eel in the kelp that guy was!
There ain't nothin' worse than a thief!
Thieves need to be locked up forever!
They should all be strung up by their gills
and forced to breathe air!
But Mr. Krabs?
What about all the stuff you stole?
What do you mean?
Like that barrel.
It says "Property of Salty Sea Farms."
Oh! That's where I rent me pickles from!
Are you renting the barrel?
Well... no.
Then you bought it?
Then isn't that stealing?
What about this towel from The Sizzling Spring Sauna?
And this Bikini Bell phone?
And Sandy's hedge clippers?
And Plankton's lawn mower?
Even Mrs. Puff's hair curlers?
That one was a gift. Listen...
All that stuff is, uh... borrowed.
Borrowed? Well, that's a relief.
I thought you took it without permission.
Ah, permission shmermission!
You can borrow anything you want, anytime
as long as you get it back before it's missed!
Everyone knows that! Right?
Okay!
All right then! Hugs?
You put in a hard day's work, boys!
But I don't work here.
See ya later!
Oh, that was a close one.
What do you want to do today?
I don't know.
What do you want to do today?
I don't know.
What do you want to do today?
I don't know.
What do you want to do today?
I don't know.
What do you want to do today?
I know what I want to do today!
I need some money.
Uh...
Oh!
Oh...
I don't have any money.
SpongeBob!
I want a balloon really, really badly!
Really, really badly!
It's okay, Patrick.
There's lots of money
in the First National Bank of SpongeBob!
Follow me...!
Uh-oh. I'm broke, too.
Maybe we can borrow money from Squidward.
Wait! Instead of borrowing the money
why don't we just borrow the balloon?
Yeah, like Mr. Krabs!
It's just borrowing, right?
Yeah! And borrowing is okay
as long as we bring it back, right?
Right!
This is so great!
We're going to have so much fun!
First we can run with the balloon.
Yeah, then we can go to the beach with the balloon!
Then we can take a bike ride with the balloon.
Then we can go to the movies and the arcade and the ice rink and the pizza shop!
And the moon and the sky and under a car and behind a dumpster
And the candy shop
and my backyard
and in a plane
and over a rock
and under a hill
and with a whale.
We love borrowing!
It popped.
Aah...!
How are we going to return it now, SpongeBob?
I've got the pieces!
I found the air!
Hurry, put the pieces on!
We popped the balloon!
Ga-hee...!
We can't return it!
Wha-guh...!
We're thieves!
Hi-yo-hoo...!
We have to confess!
Confess?
Are you out of your mind?
Do you have any idea
what they do to people like us?
We're not talking about
some dumb mail fraud scheme
or hijacking here.
We stole a balloon!
They're going to lock us up forever!
You're right!
We've just got to keep our heads!
Act normal.
Wow! Street performers!
It's not working!
Aah...!
Hi there!
Aah...
Hey! Don't you want a free balloon?
It's National Free Balloon Day!
He's on to us!
It's not safe in Bikini Bottom anymore!
We've got to move fast and cover our tracks!
I'm on it, SpongeBob!
Take a last look, Patrick.
We can never go back.
Goodbye, Bikini Bottom.
We've only got ourselves and what we can carry on our backs.
Yup.
We're going to have to travel lighter.
I want to go home.
We can never go home, Pat.
We're wanted men.
We'll spend the rest of our lives running... running...
but at least it's warm around the fire.
Hey, if we're underwater, how can there be a...
I'm scared, SpongeBob!
No more nice warm beds.
Huh?
No more Krabby Patties.
Oh!
No more getting mail!
No more Gary!
No more movies!
No more Squidward!
No more Sandy or Pearl or Mr. Krabs!
No more anything!
I want ice cream!
But it doesn't have to be all bad, right?
I mean... at least we have each other.
Yeah!
And all that running
is good for your buns and thighs.
Ja! Buns and thighs.
And the bitter cold?
It's bracing, isn't it!
Yeah! Maybe being a felon could be... fun!
We can loosen our ties.
Yeah!
And we can fly!
Yeah!
Aah...!
Okay... we still can't do that!
But we don't have to shave.
I'm way ahead of you, buddy!
And you get to talk tough!
This town ain't big enough for the two of us.
Let me try!
Uh... hey punk... heh-heh!
And the best part is...
now that we're felons
we don't have to return anything we borrow!
Yeah!
And we owe it all to you!
What are you talking about?
Taking the balloon was your evil plan.
Oh, I'm nothing but a lot of talk!
You're the one with the sticky fingers.
Aw, Patrick...
you're the best bad influence ever!
You, too!
I wish we had something to eat, though.
Look what I've got!
Rectangles!
Not just any rectangles...
candy bars!
Oh...!
All we have to do is make them last the rest of our lives!
Thanks, SpongeBob!
I think I'll eat it now!
Ah...
I think I'll eat it now.
Ow! Who...?
Where did my candy bar go?
I must have dropped it!
You just ate it, Pat.
It's all over your face.
Where did it go?
I'm going to starve!
Where did it go?
I can't find it!
Where could it possibly be?
Aha!
What?
You stole my candy bar!
No, I didn't.
Oh, so that's how it is, huh?
Once a thief, always a thief.
You ate yours.
This is mine!
You took my only food.
Now I'm going to starve.
Here, Patrick, just take half of mine.
Yours? You mean mine!
Do you want it or what?
I don't want it unless you admit you took it.
This is my candy bar!
Liar liar, plants for hire.
It's pants on fire, Patrick.
Well, you would know... liar.
Well, if you're going to be that way... I'll eat it myself.
You'd better not.
I'm warning you!
Ah...
Don't!
Ah...
Stop it!
Don't!
Oh!
Mmm...
Argh...!
Uhm... mmm... mmm...
Argh...!
Uhm... uhm...
Aah...!
Mm-hmm...
You're a crazy person!
I should have expected this
after the way you stole that balloon!
Did I, Patrick, did I?
Or did your criminal mind hypnotize me to steal it?
Ohh...!
That's it!
Aah... oh-ho...!
First the balloon, now my candy bar...
you're out of control!
I'm...
I'm telling on you.
Not if I tell on you first!
I'll beat you there!
You're going to get in trouble!
No, you... you are!
And the, and the... uh, uh... boom... I...
What can I do for you, boys?
We stole a balloon!
I'm no good.
We stole a balloon!
What's the problem?
It appears these two stole a balloon.
What are you going to do to us?
Okay, follow me.
If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
Okay, time's up.
Now get out!
B... but we stole a balloon!
Yeah... on Free Balloon Day.
How about some lollipops for the road, boys?
Let's vow never to borrow anything
without permission again.
You said it!
All right... which one of you flatfoots stole my lollipop?
Oh brother!
I mean it.
