The SpongeBob Musical: Live on Stage! (2019) - full transcript

[French narrator]
'Ahh, zee theater!

'A magical place
for all to enjoy,

'so long as we follow
a few simple rules.'

Oh, hi, Squidward!

'In case of emergency,

'always take a moment
to locate your nearest exit.

'And try to find your seat
before the show begins.'

Excuse me.

'Please do not disrupt
the show for others.

'This means no gum-chewing.

'No bouncing.



'No armrest-hogging.

'No jelly-fishing.'

Sorry.

'No hamboning.'

Ooh-ooh-ooh!

'No gargling.

'No play-fighting.'

Sit down and stop ruining
my night off!

'And, of course, no talking.'

Enjoy the musical, Patrick.

Shh! You're talking.

[French narrator]
'Ahh, bonjour, salut,

'and welcome to this quiet
corner of the ocean floor,

'teeming with all the many
kinds of undersea life.



'It is here we find
the sub-marine habitat

'known as...

'...Bikini Bottom.

'Let us observe now

'as the sun rises
on a new nautical day.

'Here, we see an ordinary
cluster of kelp.

'And here...

'...a common clumping of coral.

'And here... a pineapple!

'This fruit is home to one

'of the most fascinating
sea creatures of all.

'Aplysina fistualis.

'The yellow sponge!'

I can't wait
for another fine day

at the finest
eating establishment

ever established for eating.

And here I thought
it was a third-rate greasepot.

The finest third-rate
greasepot,

where I am proud to be
Fry Cook of the Month.

You're the only fry cook!

Well, I, for one, have my sights
set far beyond this place.

I've been developing
a one-man show

starring an as-yet-undiscovered
young, handsome,

and very leggy talent.

I call it...

[♪ Drumroll]

Tentacle Spectacle,
the Musical.

My mother... she always said
I belonged on the stage.

You'd make a great tree.

Now look sharp, boys,

my precious
whale daughter is here.

Pearl!

[Thudding]

Soak it in,
me darlin' daughter.

One day, all this'll be yours.

As soon as you graduate
high school,

I'll start you as manager.

But Da-a-a-a-d!

- I have my own dreams.
- Like what?

Listenin' to that boy band
fourteen hours a day?

They're called
the Electric Skates.

Uh, Mr. Krabs?

If she doesn't want
to be manager,

I know someone who would be
great for the job.

You?

Ha-ha! A fry cook is all
you'll ever be.

You're just
a simple sponge, boy.

And yet, you don't seem
to absorb very much.

Ha! Ka-ka-ka-ka-ka!

[All laugh]

♪ Why can't they see?

♪ I wore my good shoes
and I've got my tie on

♪ Maybe it's me

♪ Am I just a simple sponge
you can't rely on?

♪ All I want is someone
to notice who I am

♪ Do you have make me
say it out loud?

♪ Come on, Mr. Krabs,
this is more than just a job

Oh!

Um... is that something
we should worry about?

Nah.

Breaking news!

That is something
we should worry about!

After today's second
unexplained tremor,

smoke has been sighted
at the top of Mount Humongous,

the long-slumbering
volcano of do-o-o-o-o-m!

Impending disaster.
A special bulletin.

We've just learned that
Bikini Bottom is under threat

from a terrifying
volcano of doom,

And now, a live statement
from the mayor of our town.

Ladies and gentlefish,

if this mountain erupts,
orange rivers of steaming lava

will obliterate
all we know and love!

Don't worry, your government
has everything under control.

I'm starting an initiative
to assemble a committee

to identify a strategy
to evaluate the situation.

In the meantime,

all citizens must report home
and remain indoors.

The threat level
is now Code Orange.

[Panicked chatter]

Aargh!

I don't understand
why everyone is so worried.

Sure, that volcano might
destroy everything.

But on the other hand,
it might not.

When are you gonna learn,
SpongeBob?

The world is a horrible place

filled with fear,
suffering and despair.

Also dashed hopes,
shattered dreams,

broken promises
and abject misery.

But it's our horrible place

with the best
abject misery there is!

They'll see, everything
is under control. Right?

♪ Not a single shark or sole

♪ It's all deranged

♪ No control...

Don't you think you're being
a little negative?

with my clarinet

♪ This could take a while

♪ So I should relax

♪ But the stores
are all closed

- ♪ Out of snacks!

♪ No control!

♪ La la la la la la la la...

SpongeBob, what are you doing
out of your pineapple?

Everyone's supposed
to be inside!

It's going to be fine, Sandy.

The Mayor said she'll handle it.

And everyone knows, you can
always trust the government.

Well... I've got news
hot off the griddle.

I did some calculations,
and that volcano is gonna erupt,

as sure as a rhinestone cowboy
at a disco rodeo.

I figured out when, too.

It's gonna happen
at sundown tomorrow!

Oh!

OK, Sandy,
but I don't think...

I'm serious as a guacamole
shortage at a taco party!

[Ticking]

I determined the timeline
through analysis of...

seismic activity, gas emissions,

geomagnetic and gravimetric
changes.

Over the next 36 hours,

tremors will increase
and boulders will fall,

eventually leading
to a cataclysmic eruption

which will completely
destroy Bikini Bottom!

You have to pull
yourself together.

Breathe in and out.

Eyes here. Eyes!

But you don't understand.

I'm stuck inside and I can't
watch any of my shows,

because there's nothing on TV
but this...

[TV announcer] 'The end
is coming. The end is...'

I get it, buddy.

I get stressed out too
sometimes.

Like when Mr. Krabs says
I'm not manager material.

Manager material?

You mean like polyester?

He says I'll never be more
than a fry cook.

What?

You just want some respect.
I get that.

I got a lot of great ideas, but
no one ever pays attention...

We're getting off topic,
Patrick.

The point is, we're gonna get
through this emergency together.

We don't need television,
as long as we have...

- ...imagination!
- Ice cream... Imagination.

Right!
Because we're B-F-F.

B-F-F.

Bfffffff!

'Find out when
"SpongeBob The Musical

'Live On Stage" continues.'

[Cheers and applause]

All citizens report
to the town square!

[Sirens wailing]

Ladies and gentlefish, we only
have until sundown tomorrow.

But I will lead us
through this crisis

by setting meetings
to encourage dialogue

about drafting proposals
for eventual action.

- So, we're doomed.
- I'm scared!

We need someone to save us!

We need to find whoever's
to blame for all this.

Does anyone have
an actual plan to propose?

Ooh, ooh, I do!
Call on me! Me, me, me, me!

Yes, enthusiastic sea star?

If we all close our eyes,
maybe nothing will happen.

So. Deep.

No, it's not! It's the stupidest
thing I've ever heard.

Hooray! Wait...

I've got it!

We can find a way to halt
the exponential increase

of pyroclastic flow in the
subterranean magma chamber.

Yeah, what she said.
La la la lah!

- What did she say?
- Ha-ha! Science, y'all.

That's the answer!

I have a new scheme, Karen,
my best one yet.

But for it to work,
I need them to stay scared.

What're you talking about?
The end is coming!

This is no time
for one of your schemes.

Oh, yes, it is.

What you said was true,

it would take too long
to hypnotize each of them

into loving my chum burgers.

But when fish are scared,
they school together.

If I get them all in one place,

trapped where there's
nowhere to run,

I can hypnotize them in bulk.

First, though, I need
to shut down that squirrel.

Ahem!

- Excuse me!
- Yes?

- Oh, speak up, tiny citizen.
- Grrr!

Do any of you actually believe
that science can save us?

- Of course we do.
- Oh, come on!

Next she'll tell us
tidal warming is real.

I'm been studyin' Bikini Bottom
for years now.

- If you'd just trust me...
- Why should we trust you?

- You're not even from here.
- Yeah, you're a land mammal.

Since when does that matter?

Things are different now.
Our town is under attack.

You know what they say, folks:
when the going gets tough...

The tough...

...get going!

No!

The tough get lost.

What?
Dude, that is not the saying.

I need to sell them on my plan,
Karen, but it won't be easy.

I'm going to need to do it
in song.

Gimme some music, please, Karen.

Just in time to get us out

And it only costs...

Neptune's Trident!
There aren't enough clams

in all Bikini Bottom
to pay for this!

- I guess we'll have to stay.
- No!

We can, uh...

We can raise the funds.

Before sundown tomorrow?
There's not a chance in kelp.

Yeah, the only way I ever give
money is if a celebrity asks.

It won't be long before we kiss
our Bikini Bottom goodbye!

Oh, wait, everyone!

We can't abandon our home.

We can't just give up.

I have a plan to save the town

- I'm right here, hello.

Well, then,
welcome to the team!

Mr. Star!
Mr. Star!

Were you expecting
all these sardines?

Uh-uh.

You said, "If we close our eyes,
maybe nothing will happen."

And we understood,

it's only by shutting out
the turmoil of the world

that we can find salvation.

Give us more wisdom, O Pink One!
Eeeee!

Um...

Life...

...smells...

...weird.

So. Deep.

Life smells weird!
Life smells weird!

What was that all about?

Finally, someone understands!

The inner machinations
of my mind are an enigma.

Come on, Patrick! We gotta
go get Sandy on the team!

Apocalypse:
a special report.

Just 28 hours left
before the end.

How will you spend them?

I'm gonna do all the living
I should've done before.

Gimme another kelp juice,
Johnny.

Carpe diem!

Who're you calling a carp?

I'm gonna find someone
to blame for all this.

What about the squirrel?

That whole "science" thing
is pretty suspicious.

Not only that...
she has lungs.

Yeah!
This is a gill town!

Land Mammals Go Home!

We don't want her kind here.
Let's blame the squirrel!

Blame the squirrel!
Blame the squirrel!

Blame the squirrel!

I guess I was wrong.

'Let us now follow Sandy

'as she takes refuge
in Jellyfish Fields...

'...one of the great wonders
of the undersea world.'

Sandy! Oh!

Oh, we've been looking for you
everywhere!

We have a volcano to beat
and we need you on the team.

Brains, brawn, and though
I don't have any special skills

to bring to the table,
I'm coming too.

This town doesn't want my help,
they want me gone.

- And I can take a hint.
- You can't leave.

- This is your home.
- No, it's not, SpongeBob.

Let's face it,
I never fit in here.

Then again, I never really fit
in Texas either.

I was always the odd rodent out.

No one knew what to make
of a girl squirrel

who was into science
and martial arts.

I've never felt at home
anywhere, really.

And now it's time to dig up
my acorns again and push on.

Oh, that's terrible, Sandy.

But, please, don't leave.

We need you on the team.

Patrick can help us
climb that volcano,

but you have to handle the
stopping-it-from-erupting part.

Because we have no clue how,

and time is running out
really, really fast.

But no pressure.

Pressure! Yes!

I think I have an idea.

Figure 1: Diagram
of a volcanic eruption,

caused by rapid
pressure build-up

in a subterranean magma chamber.

Figure 2: if this pressure
is released,

no eruption will occur.

Ipso facto, I can design
an explosive device.

Figure 3: to drop in the mouth
of the volcano.

Figure 4: with a timer set
to detonate

at the precise moment
of eruption.

Figure 5: unleashing
a deluge of bubbles

that'll release the pressure
and prevent the blast!

You lost me at 1.

The point is, this could work.

I reckon I can have
this bubble device

built by tomorrow morning.

So you'll stay and help us?

Boys, I'm still gonna push on
from this town of yours.

But you're my friends, so I say
we give this idea a shot.

Three heroes to the rescue!

Hey, Squidward, good news.

We're going to save
Bikini Bottom!

What're you talking about?

Explain yourself,
rhombus slacks.

Sandy is going to build
an ingenious bubble device

to stop the volcano.

Then all we have to do is climb
to the top of Mount Humongous

and drop it in.

Ha-ha-ha-ha!
You're kidding, right?

Nobody has ever reached
the top alive.

When you say nobody,

do you mean that
as a figure of speech or...?

I mean nobody ever, period,
full stop, exclamation point.

- [Sniggers]

Don't worry, buddy,
we can do it.

I'll be with you the whole way,
no matter what.

That sponge is the biggest
threat to my plot.

If somehow they do manage
to climb that mountain...

We have to make sure
they don't live long enough

to reach the top.

I like how you're thinking,
Karen.

And I'm so glad you want
to scheme with me again.

It's just like the old days.

I guess it took a little
apocalypse to spice things up.

We got this, boys.

we'll be on that mountain

We should head back to my rock.

[Cheers and applause]

With one hour left
on the Doomsday Clock,

the benefit concert
is about to begin.

Our phone lines are now open.

It's up to you,
our viewers across the ocean.

We need your donations
to pay for the escape pod

and get out before the volcano
blows us to oblivion!

And there,
you can see them now,

the citizens of Bikini Bottom,
led by the Mayor

through the streets
of our beleaguered town,

on the way to the bandshell.

It is a truly historic exodus.

♪ Bikini Tevka

♪ Bikini Tevka

♪ Aaaaaaaaah...

Alright, alright,
that's enough.

Luggage there,
escape pod will go here!

Where's the band?

- They should be here!
- Oh, they quit.

- What?
- Artistic differences.

They left me behind?

But he said
I could go on tour with them!

[Wails]

What?
You were going to run away?

Pearl Krabs!

If we survive,
you are grounded.

I'm sorry if that sounds
cold-blooded, but I am.

We won't survive!

Without the band, we'll never
raise enough money for the pod.

[Rumbling]

Oh, no! Not again!

It's another boulder!

Everyone stay calm!

[Screaming]

No! No!

No!

No! [Sobs]

Nooooo!

Ooh!

Ooh!

Ooh!

[Gasping]

[Audience laughing]

This is the government's fault!

This is the media's fault!

It's your fault!

[Indistinct shouting]

[Narrator] 'Meanwhile,

'high on the treacherous slope
of Mount Humongous,

'SpongeBob and Sandy are
ze only hope for Bikini Bottom.

'Will they reach the top

'before Plankton and Karen
can stop them?

'Zut alors!

'It is a race against time.'

It's a race against time,
SpongeBob!

Remember what I told ya:

don't stop till you drop.

Yeah,
let's definitely not drop.

We got this.

Eyes on the prize.

Is it just me or is it getting
kinda toasty up here?

I'm sweatin' like a snowman
in a steam room.

We're almost at the top,
come on!

Alright, now's our chance.

Let's do this. Goodbye.

- Ready.
- Aim.

Fire!

Sandy, do you hear that?

It's an avalanche!

Ooh!

Uh! Ooh! Uh...!

I'm slipping!

I've got you!

Uh... Ooh! Ooh!

I think this is goodbye, Sandy.

These are my last words.

No, SpongeBob, please!

Look over there!

Those are your last words?

No! It's Patrick!

And he has your jetpack!

I'll save you!

- SpooooongeBoooooob!
- Paaaaaaaatriiiiiiiiiiiiick!

You came back!

Of course I did.

I hope it's OK
I borrowed your invention.

Mi jetpack es su jetpack.

Aw! I don't know
what that means.

I realized something today,
buddy.

The total devotion of adoring
masses is pretty awesome,

but they're not really
there for me.

Not like you are.

Hey, we're BFFs.

Being there for each other
is what we do.

We're best friends
and this is the friend dance!

We're best friends and this is
the friend dance!

- We're best friends...
- This is real sweet,

but the town's gonna be toast
if we don't hurry up.

Alright.

Team, let's move!

[Explosion, hissing]

Boys, we have a problem.

We do?

Oh, you mean

this giant unclimbable
volcano mouth of doom.

No way can I fit
through those squeezes.

Oh, me neither.

But I bet you could,
SpongeBob.

Done gone it, that's right!

You can squeeze
through anything.

Look at that thing!

I can't do this.

Mr. Krabs was right:

- I'm just a simple sponge.
- No!

Remember when we were
stuck inside

- and there was nothing on TV?
- Yeah?

I thought it was
an epic life-ending disaster,

but you got me through it.
You always see the bright side.

And you never give up.

When I was ready
to bail on y'all,

you kept me going.

That's what you bring
to the team, SpongeBob.

Management skills.

- Really?
- You are manager material.

And you can do this.

Give me the Erupter Interrupter.

And it's really, really hot.

- Throw it in!
- On the count of three.

- One, two...
- Wait!

on three or after three?

I don't get the question.

Like, "One, two, three,"
or "One, two, three, uh!"

One, two, three, uh,
right?

Yeah.
One, two, three, uh!

Got it.

One, two, three, uh!

[Falling whistle]

Now we wait until sundown
and hope that it works.

"Hope"?

What do you mean, "hope"?

I think my calculations
are right,

but as they say in Texas,
the proof is in the cowpie.

I love pie.

We'll know for sure
in ten minutes.

[Distant screaming]

Hey, what's that sound?

It's coming from down there.

They're all attacking
each other!

That was the Krusty Krab!

[Sandy] Volcano or not,

Bikini Bottom's
gonna destroy itself.

[Narrator] 'It's a big finale
of "SpongeBob the Musical",

'live on stage. Next!'

[SpongeBob]
If we don't stop this,

Bikini Bottom's not going
to last ten more minutes.

But it'll take hours
to climb down.

Guys, I have an idea.

We could roll down.
It might hurt a little.

- I have an idea.
- If we tuck in our heads...

Pay attention to me!

This jetpack,
it has a parachute.

- Of course!
- See?

My ideas are worth
listening to.

You can say that again.

- See? My ideas are...
- OK, boys!

Let's do this thing!

Us, go!

Stoooooooop!

What are you doing?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Quick, everyone!

Those fools perished
in an avalanche!

We have to get
into the escape pod now.

Honey.
They're alive.

- They are?
- [SpongeBob] Yes, we are.

But thanks for worrying
about our safety, Plankton.

Seems you're the only one
with some decency left.

We made it to the top

and dropped the bubble device
into the volcano.

In seven minutes,
we'll know if we saved the town.

But if you keep going like this,
it won't matter either way.

There won't be anything left
to save!

Deep thoughts, SpongeBob,
but...

I'm not finiiiiiished!

At a time like this,
we should be coming together.

Instead, you're all looking
for someone to blame

or to follow...

to exploit or control.

You're all so scared
for yourselves

that you're turning
against each other.

That's just as dangerous
as any volcano.

It doesn't have to be like this.

We might only have
seven minutes left,

but we could make them
the best seven minutes ever.

How?

The whole town is in ruins!

Like I said before, SpongeBob:

the world's a horrible place

filled with fear,
suffering and despair.

And you didn't believe me.

I still don't.

Just look at the sun.

It's still shining.

Look at the kelp.

It's still...

kelp-y.

Look at us.

We still have each other.
