friends were primitive,” observed the Squidwardosaurus rex.
    SpongeBob began to sniff. “Don’t cry, me boy,” Mr. Krabs said. “Everything’s gonna be fine! For us, that is.”
    â€œI’m not crying, Mr. Krabs,” SpongeBob said, sniffing some more. “I smell Krabby Patties!”
    â€œThat’s right,” Mr. Krabs said gently. “Keep thinking happy thoughts.” He turned to Squidward and shouted, “NOW!”
    Squidward swung an ax and cut the rope. The heavystone bun fell! SpongeBob braced himself, waiting to be squished …
    â€¦ but nothing happened!
    Mr. Krabs had jumped onto the altar and caught the stone bun! “The boy’s right!” he announced. “I smell ’em, too! Someone somewhere is cookin’ up one o’ me original-formuler, world-famous Krabby Patties!”
    With a loud grunt, Mr. Krabs tossed the big stone bun aside. Then he ripped off the leather clothes he’d been wearing ever since chaos had engulfed Bikini Bottom. “Okay, SpongeBob—go get it!”
    â€œWait,” Squidward said. “You mean we can just take these uncomfortable clothes OFF?” He ripped off his leather clothes, too.
    â€œGo find the Krabby Patty!” Mr. Krabs said to SpongeBob. “Come on, boy!”
    SpongeBob followed the scent. “Let’s go, everybody!” he said. “I’ve got some Krabby Patty orders to fill!”
    Sniffing the air, he took off across the ocean floor. Mr. Krabs, Sandy, Patrick, Squidward, and the mob followed him.
    â€œIt’s coming from over there!” SpongeBob cried as he led everyone up a hill.
    But when they had almost reached the top of thehill, they all realized that SpongeBob was leading them up to the surface. The mob groaned. Sure, they wanted delicious Krabby Patties, but as sea creatures, they couldn’t leave the water.
    â€œAll right,” the leader of the angry mob said. “All secondary characters, come with me.”
    â€œYeah,” Squidward agreed. “I’m with you guys.” He started to leave with the crowd, but Mr. Krabs stopped him.
    â€œNo way, Squidward. You’re going up there with us.”
    â€œMy feet hurt,” Patrick complained.
    â€œPatrick, you don’t HAVE feet,” SpongeBob pointed out.
    Patrick gasped. “It’s not fair! Sandy has feet! Squidward has feet!”
    â€œActually, I have FOUR feet,” Squidward said.
    Patrick sat down with a grunt. SpongeBob walked up to him and put his hand on his shoulder. “Patrick, it’s not about feet.”
    â€œWhat IS this about, then?” Squidward asked.
    â€œIt’s about being a TEAM and sticking together no matter WHAT!” SpongeBob said. As he was speaking, trying to inspire the others, no one saw Plankton hide inside SpongeBob’s sock.
    Squidward raised his arms in disbelief. “The only way we’re going up there is if some sort of fairy godmothershows up and helps us breathe air!”
    The words were scarcely out of Squidward’s mouth when …
FLASH!
Bubbles the dolphin appeared in a flash of bright light! He floated right in front of them.
    â€œBubbles?” SpongeBob asked.
    â€œYou KNOW this guy?” Squidward asked in disbelief.
    â€œPlease don’t hurt us, Bubbles,” SpongeBob pleaded. “We’re sorry we got you fired!”
    â€œHURT you?” Bubbles exclaimed. “I’ve traveled back through time to THANK you. I’d been stuck in that job for eons. I needed a change, but I was too afraid to go for it.”
    SpongeBob grinned. “Glad we could help!”
    Bubbles said, “And now it is MY turn to help. I can get you safely to the surface. Quick, all of you—jump into my mouth!” He opened his mouth wide.
    â€œCome on, guys!” SpongeBob said enthusiastically. “Let’s go!” He hurried into Bubbles’s mouth.
    But the other four
