hesitated.
    Squidward said, “There’s NO WAY I’m climbing into some dolphin’s mouth!”
    â€œYeah, this guy just wants a free lunch!” Mr. Krabs agreed.
    From inside the dolphin’s mouth, SpongeBob pleaded with his friends. “Guys, if Bubbles has the courage to quithis dead-end, nowhere job and travel back through time to help us, then WE need to have the courage to—”
    But before SpongeBob could finish his stirring speech, Bubbles swallowed the four of them all at once.
    Inside Bubbles’s head, the five friends were jammed together. “I never thought I’d be eaten by a dolphin!” Mr. Krabs groaned.
    â€œNo, if he was EATING us,” SpongeBob corrected him, “he’d be chewing us up and we’d be going down there!” He pointed down the dolphin’s throat. “THIS is what you call riding in style!”
    â€œNot a lot of legroom in here,” Squidward complained.
    â€œWell, maybe if you didn’t have FOUR feet,” Patrick said.
    Without anyone noticing, Plankton peeked out of SpongeBob’s sock. “Note to self,” he muttered quietly. “Never stow away in a gym sock.”
    Above them, Bubbles’s blowhole opened wide. The chamber began to shake. “What’s happening?” Patrick cried. “I feel tingly!”
    Bubbles leapt out of the ocean. Then he blew the five friends out of his blowhole in a magical beam of energy!
    â€œYAAAAAHHHH!” they screamed as they flew through the air.

W HOMP!
SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Squidward, and Sandy hit sand, hard. They had landed on a beach. Magical energy crackled away from their bodies.
    â€œOw! My neck!” Squidward moaned.
    Bubbles floated in the air above them. “I have done all I can. The rest is up to you!”
    â€œThank you very much, Bubbles!” SpongeBob called, waving.
    â€œFarewell, SpongeBob!” Bubbles said. “Now to update my resume!”
    The dolphin rocketed into the sky and dis-appeared through a portal that closed behind him.
    Down on the beach, Sandy took off her helmet and breathed in the fresh air. “Ahhh,” she sighed. “Sweet not-from-a-tank air! Oh, how I’ve missed you!”
    The others took deep breaths through their noses. Squidward wrinkled his. “This place smells awful!”
    â€œI smell a Krabby Patty!” SpongeBob said, sniffing. “It’s coming from over there! Come on, team—let’s go!”
    SpongeBob led the way. They immediately saw that the beach was covered in sweaty human sunbathers. “I have a bad feeling about this place,” Mr. Krabs warned.
    Patrick stopped next to a man’s foot. To Patrick, the foot seemed gigantic—like a whole creature. “Maybe this guy can help us. He looks smart. He’s got FIVE heads!”
    SpongeBob politely addressed the foot. “Sir? Could you tell us where to find a Krabby Patty?”
    No answer. Then they heard a snore. SpongeBob saw the rest of the sleeping man. “A giant hairy porpoise! It’s beached! It’s suffering! Poor thing …”
    Sandy tried to tell the sea creatures about human beings. “Y’all, those aren’t porpoises, they’re—”
    â€œAll hands on deck!” Mr. Krabs cried, ignoring Sandy.
    â€œOh, brother,” she said, giving up.
    â€œWe need to get these guys back in the water!” Mr. Krabs said, waving his claws, directing the others to help him.
    â€œC’mon! PUSH!” SpongeBob said.
    The five teammates lined up along one side of the sleeping sunbather and started to push. “Heave!” shouted Mr. Krabs. “Ho!” cried the others. They managed to flipthe man onto his face.
    â€œHeave!” shouted Mr. Krabs. “Ho!” cried the others. They flipped him onto his back.
    They tried to flip him again, but they were getting tired. The man fell back onto them. From underneath the man, Squidward
