SpongeBob: [putting the meat on the patty] Easy...
[takes all the condiments and throws them in the air. They all land nicely
stacked on top of the patty] Perfection.
Squidward: Is number five's order ready yet,
SpongeBob?
SpongeBob: Just a second, Squidward. Well, Krabby
Patty, it's time for you to go now. [sniffles, starts to cry] You grew up so
fast, I... [Squidward looks bored] I promised myself I wouldn't do this. [gives
the order to Squidward] Just take it, Squidward, take it away. [cries]
Squidward: Oh, brother. [into microphone] Number 5.
Number 5!
SpongeBob: [shows a slip with the number 5 on it]
That's me! [takes Krabby Patty and eats it] Mmm. My compliments to the chef.
[laughs himself into the kitchen, where he notices something] Hello, what's
this? [gets close to the window of the door where his eyes and Mr. Krabs' eyes
meet]
Mr. Krabs: Come out here, boy.
SpongeBob: [walks outside] Mr. Krabs? Whoa!
Mr. Krabs: [grabs SpongeBob and drags him under the
dumpster] Hush boy, or you'll give away the location of me hidey-hole.
SpongeBob: [whispering] What's a hidey-hole?
Mr. Krabs: It's where I hide me treasure. [pushes the
dumpster aside and throws SpongeBob out of the hole] Whoa! Catch! [throws a
treasure chest at SpongeBob] Let's get that chest to the office, boy, pronto!
SpongeBob: What's in this thing? Treasure?
Mr. Krabs: A treasure trove of sorts. It's me memory
chest from my years in the navy.
SpongeBob: Why'd you dig up your navy chest, sir?
Mr. Krabs: Well, my navy buddies and I are having a
reunion. I wanted to wear me old uniform. [opens chest]
SpongeBob: Wow, look at all your cool navy stuff!
What's that?
Mr. Krabs: Arrgh! [takes out a tattoo] It's me first
tattoo.
SpongeBob: Neat.
Mr. Krabs: And this is me 'Manly Toughness Trophy'.
[shows a trophy with an arm at the top]
SpongeBob: How'd you win that?
Mr. Krabs: By being the toughest of the tough!
SpongeBob: Wow! Ooh, ooh, who are those guys?
[pointing to a picture with 5 sailors in it]
Mr. Krabs: Me shipmates. The toughest bunch to ever
sail the briny deep. There's "'Old Iron Eye," [shows guy with iron
for an eye], and "Mutton Chop," [shows guy holding a wrench], me,
[shows Mr. Krabs in a navy suit], "Torpedo Belly," [shows big guy
with torpedo in his belly], and "Lockjaw Jones." [shows guy with a
big jaw and leaning on an anchor]
SpongeBob: Did you have a cool nickname, Mr. Krabs?
Mr. Krabs: Of course! I was called "Armor Abs
Krabs."
SpongeBob: You were?
Mr. Krabs: What do you mean?
SpongeBob: Well, I guess you were thinner back then.
Mr. Krabs: Oh, really? [takes his navy suit] This is
me navy cadet uniform. Prepare to eat your words 'cause I haven't put on
more... than a couple of... pounds. [rips navy suit while trying to put it on]
Okay, maybe I'm a bit bigger. But I'm still the toughest of the tough. Go
ahead, lad, give 'em a punch.
SpongeBob: You want me to punch you in the stomach?
Mr. Krabs: Not in the stomach, lad! In me armor abs!
SpongeBob: [punches Mr. Krabs in the abs, but his arm
breaks into little pieces] Wow, my entire arm disintegrated!
Mr. Krabs: I still got it. Be a good lad, go get your
station in shipshape. And leave an old sea dog to revel in his memories.
SpongeBob: Aye, aye, sir! [opens kitchen door] All
right! Let's get this place shipshape! You men, stop laying around! [point to
potatoes] To battle stations! [pouring fries into the grease fryer] All hands
on deck! [puts 10 Krabby Patties on the grill] That calls for full flavor!
[turns knob on stove to the right] Ketchup and mustard off the port bow!
[stepping on ketchup and mustard containers] One Krabby Patty ready to set
sail. [holding Krabby Patty up]
Mr. Krabs: No!! [SpongeBob drops his Krabby Patty]
SpongeBob: [gasps] Oh, Mr. Krabs. [knocks once on Mr.
Krabs door and it opens] Huh, Mr. Krabs? Hello? [Mr. Krabs is shown head down
on his desk] You all right? Are you sleepy? [pokes Mr. Krabs body knocking it
to the floor, revealing an empty shell] Mr. Krabs! [sniffs his arm] I don't
smell his pulse. [in the background, a fleshy and pink Mr. Krabs rushes past
SpongeBob] What's that? [figure is behind a barrel] Is somebody there?
Mr. Krabs: Don't look at me!
SpongeBob: Mr. Krabs?
Mr. Krabs: Leave me be!
SpongeBob: [throws barrel away] You're alive! And...
naked.
Mr. Krabs: [crying] It's true. I've molted.
SpongeBob: What's molted?
Mr. Krabs: It's when a crab gets too fat-- uh, well--
outgrows his shell. It falls off!
SpongeBob: Wow.
Mr. Krabs: 'Armor Abs Krabs' can't show up at the
reunion like this. All pink and soft and unmanly. I'm all flab and no ab!
[sobs]
SpongeBob: Barnacles!
Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob!
SpongeBob: Sorry about the foul language, Mr. Krabs,
but you're acting like there never was a man in that shell. The Krabs of his
navy days was fearless. He wouldn't let something as insignificant as a missing
shell slow him down.
Mr. Krabs: Yeah.
SpongeBob: Who cares how silly, pink, and fleshy you
look? How non-threatening, limp, and soggy you are... How... [Mr. Krabs sobs]
Oops.
Mr. Krabs: I can't go anywhere ever again. Stupid, no
good... [kicks shell into the wall which ricochets back at SpongeBob. He
screams. The shell lands on his hand and he runs around, screaming. Then he
falls over and goes in his shell]
SpongeBob: Wow, it sure is dark in here. [pokes head
through the shell] Look, Mr. Krabs-- I'm you!
Mr. Krabs: SpongeBob, you're a genius.
SpongeBob: Well, I'm glad you got my point. It's not
about what's on the outside. It's what's on the inside.
Mr. Krabs: No, you barnacle brain. Not your silly
metaphor; you, in me shell. It gives me an idea. You can go to the reunion and
pretend to be me.
SpongeBob: I get to be a navy buddy?
Mr. Krabs: Of course, you'll need some time to
approximate me personality.
SpongeBob: Oh, that'll be a snap. Squidward and I have
been doing it behind your back for years. [laughs]
Mr. Krabs: All right, show me what you got.
SpongeBob: [pulls nose out to look like Mr. Krabs'
then imitates his voice] Look at me, I'm Mr. Krabs. I love money.
Mr. Krabs: [chuckles] Say that ain't half-bad.
SpongeBob: I once won a marathon because someone
dropped a penny at the finish line.
Mr. Krabs: That's me. [laughs]
SpongeBob: Every night, I tuck me wallet in and tell
it a bedtime story. [pulls covers over the wallet] Good night, wallety. [kisses
the wallet]
Mr. Krabs: Yeah, okay, I get the point.
SpongeBob: Oh, what's that you say? Me daughter Pearl
needs an operation? I'll do it me self and save a nickel. [laughs]
Mr. Krabs: That'll do, SpongeBob.
[At the reunion]
SpongeBob: Well, here goes... Wow. I've never seen so
many manly naval men. So tough, so brave, so...clever. And I'm one of them! [at
the reunion, a tough man is shown lifting Nancy on a treasure chest]
Mr. Krabs: [hiding in a coral plant] No you're not.
Don't blow this for me, SpongeBob.
SpongeBob: I won't let you down, sir.
Mutton Chop: Armor Abs Krabs. Come join your old naval
buddies in a toast.
SpongeBob: [high-pitched voice] Coming! [runs over to
the table]
Mr. Krabs: Oh, what have I done?
SpongeBob: Okay, boys, let the S.S. Party drop anchor
right here.
Mr. Krabs: I've created a monster.
Lockjaw Jones: Here's some grog. You still like
pineapple, right?
SpongeBob: Like pineapple? I live in one. [everyone
laughs]
Torpedo Belly: That Old Krabs is as manly as ever.
Mr. Krabs: I don't believe it. SpongeBob is pulling it
off.
Mutton Chop: Hey, Armor Abs, Old Iron Eye here has
been itching to punch your legendary gut.
SpongeBob: Well, if you think you're man enough...
Mr. Krabs: Uh-oh, this could be bad.
SpongeBob: Fire the torpedo. [Iron Eye punches
SpongeBob. He bounces around in the shell then comes up dizzy]
Mutton Chop: What do you say, Krabs? Just like old
times. [SpongeBob spits out a tooth]
Lockjaw Jones: A tooth?
[SpongeBob spits out two more teeth]
Torpedo Belly: Teeth. Now, that's manly.
[SpongeBob coughs out his skeleton and everyone gasps
then cheers]
Mr. Krabs: He did it.
Captain: All right, me swabbies, it's time to award
the trophy of manly toughness to a man who's toughness has stood the test of
time. That man is Eugene Armor Abs Krabs! Hey, come up here, Krabs.
Mr. Krabs: This is the best night of my life. Me naval
buddies still think I'm manly. And I didn't have to shame myself.
Naval Buddies: Armor Abs! Armor Abs! Armor Abs!
SpongeBob: Thanks for the trophy, everybody. [laughs]
Naval Buddies: Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!
SpongeBob: I... I...
Mr. Krabs: Say something.
SpongeBob: Let me spin you a manly yarn.
Mr. Krabs: Attaboy.
SpongeBob: So there I was, in Jellyfish Fields...
Mr. Krabs: I'm doomed.
SpongeBob: Me supply of bubble soap was dangerously
low. And as I blew my last bubble...
Mutton Chop: Did he say Jellyfish Fields?
Iron Eye: Blowing bubbles?
Mutton Chop: Uh, what were you doing in Jellyfish
Fields?
SpongeBob: Why, jellyfishing, of course.
Naval Buddies: Huh?!
Mr. Krabs: Uh.. uh, phone call for Mr. Krabs!
[SpongeBob is confused] [quietly yelling] Get off the stage.
SpongeBob: Oh, uh, well, I gotta go. Thanks. [runs off
the stage]
Torpedo Belly: Where do you think you're going?
Everybody knows there's two things Old Armor Abs Krabs would never do.
Mr. Krabs: Oh, no.
Lockjaw Jones: Number one, is spend a penny.
Torpedo Belly: And the other one is leave without
giving Old Torpedo Belly one of your world-famous steely belly butts. '[laughs]
SpongeBob: [normal voice] Oh, I thought you'd see
through my ruse. [Mr. Krabs' voice] I mean, arrgh! You didn't think I was just
gonna collect this here trophy of manly toughness without reminding you
silly-livers why you give it to me in the first place? Let's have at it. No
holding back. Give it your all.
Mr. Krabs: I can't watch. [SpongeBob and Torpedo Belly
butt each other in the belly and sends SpongeBob flying]
Torpedo Belly: Armor Abs? [SpongeBob flies into a sign
and then back into Torpedo Belly breaking the shell. SpongeBob is revealed and
everyone gets angry]
SpongeBob: Well, uh, I-I-I-I-I-I, I guess I'll just
take my manly toughness trophy and head home now. Uh... see you around
Manville, boys... men.
Mr. Krabs: No!! He's not Eugene Krabs. I am. [everyone
gasps] All right, lads. Take a good look. This is who I am. I've molted me
shell and I'm... vulnerable. [cries] But I'm certainly no bubble-blowing
jellyfisher. No offense, SpongeBob.
SpongeBob: None taken, Mr. Krabs.
Mr. Krabs: Come on, lad, let's go home.
Mutton Chop: Wait a minute! You've forgotten
something. [hands trophy to Mr. Krabs]
Mr. Krabs: I don't understand.
Mutton Chop: Admitting you lost your shell was the
toughest thing I've ever seen. And, uh, I have a confession. [rips off
sideburns] These are fake! What?! Wha...?! [SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs gasp]
Torpedo Belly: Over here.
Mr. Krabs: You, too, Torpedo Belly?
Torpedo Belly: Actually, I had my torpedo removed long
ago.
Lockjaw Jones: And these aren't the same choppers that
I had in the navy.
Iron Eye: My iron eye is actually made of Formica.
[everyone laughs]
SpongeBob: Look at that, Mr. Krabs. Your navy buddies
all had something to hide.
Mr. Krabs: Yeah, poor suckers. At least my shell will grow back. [both laugh]
