- Are you ready
for a bedtime story, Gary?



- [meowing, yawns]

- [groans]

[embellished accent]
Good evening, Gary,

and welcome
to Patstarpiece Theatre.

- Hot, hot, hot!

- Hmm, would you like
to hear an exciting story

about brave Sir Patrick
and the fire-breathing dragon?

[dragon roaring]

- [meows]
- [grunts]

Or perhaps a thrilling tale
of Explorer Patrick

on safari in the jungle?

- [roaring]
- [screaming]

[breathing heavily]

- [meows]

- Ah!

This is a good one!
"Swamp Mates,"

a story of two buffoons
in a bog!

[laughter]

[cringes]

Once upon a time,

there was a saucy superhero

with a pugnacious posterior

and they called him,
"Bubble Bass."

[alarm blaring, screaming]

- [laughs menacingly]

- Stop, thief!

- Hmm.

Hmm.

- [laughing]

- Excellent job capturing
Man Ray last week, Bubble Bass.

- Thank you, Anchor Man.

He was no match
for my mighty hiney.

- Hmm.

- [clears throat]
I call this meeting

of the Guild of Obsessive Fans,
AKA G.O.O.F's,

to order! Fellow heroes,

let us welcome our
newest member, Wonder Whale!

- Hmm?

- [clicks tongue]

It would appear
Wonder Whale is late!

[beeping] - Heroes!

- It's the chief!

- Wonder Whale isn't late.

She's been kidnapped

by the nefarious ne'er-dowell,

HooDoo GooRoo
the VooDoo Villain!

[all gasping]

- [yelps]

- [grunts] Don't worry, Chief.

We'll rescue Wonder Whale...

[banging] - Bubble Bass!

- Mother?

- Ah! Your mother! [whimpers]

- [groans]

- Why don't you go outside
and make some real friends?

- Mother, you know direct
sunlight gives me gas.

[belches]
Besides, I'm busy looking

for my Wonder Whale
action figure.

- I knew you'd say
something like that,

so your mother has scheduled
a play date for you.

- I'm not 23 anymore, Mother.

You'll just have to cancel it.
- It's too late!

Your new friend is already here.

Have fun!

- Huh?
- Hi ya, buddy!

Ready for our play date?

- I will not associate

with such a dimwitted doofus.

- Aw, you're just saying that.

- [grunts]

[grunts, gasps]

What! - [laughing]

- Put those down.

My poor little things.

Don't worry,
Daddy will protect you.

- [chomping]

- [grunts]

You've completely chewed up
my limited edition Anchor Man!

[growls]

- Sorry, I'm teething.

So, what do you wanna
do for our play date?

- Hmph, I have no time
for a cretin like you.

I must find my
Wonder Whale action figure!

- Oh! Oh, I'll help you look.

- Stop it, you clod.

Do not touch any of my property.

- That's okay.
We can play with my game!

[grunting] Let's play Swamp!

- [squeals] Wait, stop!

What are you doing? [shouts]

No!

[crying]

My precious babies.

- No problem, I'll fix it.

My Wonder Whale!

[panting]

- I got it! [groans]

[dramatic music]

[wailing]

- [grunting]

[shouting]

- [gasps]

Wonder Whale, where are you?

Help! I... require...

assistance.

- I've got you,
play date partner.

Uh, whoa.

Whoa... [nervous grumbling]

- [coughing]

Where am I?

[distant animal shriek]

By the enchanted spatula
of Suburban Dad.

We're in a real swamp!

Ew!

Why am I wearing
this collar of shame?

- I think it looks good on you.

- [grunting]

Ugh, I despise nature.

- Aw, you just haven't
given it a chance.

Smell that swamp air.

[inhales]

[gasping]

[sneezes]

- [gasping] My tongue!

Water, give me water.

Ew!

Where did you get
this disgusting liquid?

Whew. Slimy and refreshing.

- This can't be happening.

This place is a nightmare!

I'll never find
my Wonder Whale action figure.

- [menacing laughter]

- What is that?
- [shudders]

- [laughing menacingly]

- My Wonder Whale!

That crook stole
my precious possession!

Get him!

- Are we playing tag?
I love tag!

Whoa-oh-oh! [grunts]
- Where'd he go?

- Perhaps he's in that
dilapidated dwelling.

- I doubt it.

Maybe he's in that shack?

[banjo music]

[machine hisses]

- Huh.
It's just some uncouth natives.

- Hello!

[both grunt]

- I caught these two
a peepin' through the window.

- They're thieves!
Trying to steal

our illegal hot sauce.

- Illegal?

- Our swamp sauce is so spicy

it can blow your head clean off.

- I assure you
we are not interested

in your disgusting hot sauce.

- Then what's he doing?

- [gulping]

[muffled shouting]

[panting]

You'll swing for this,
you ruffian!

- I am afraid you are
the ones who will swing.

[laughing]

You ignoramuses fell
right into my trap!

- Technically, I'm a doofus.

- HooDoo Guru
the Voodoo Villain!

He's real!

- That's right, Bubble Bass,

and your precious
Wonder Whale is all mine!

- I dread to think
what horrific ritual

you will use it for.

- Huh? Ritual, shmitual!

I just needed it
to complete my collection!

- Stealing from
a fellow collector?

That's despicable!

I will thrash you, sir!

[grunting]

Can't break out. [bell dings]

- You're probably weak
from hunger.

Here, try some
of this spaghetti.

- [slurping]

Mmm! Glorious caloric intake!

Wherever did you find it?

- We're sitting on it!

[slurping]

[both shriek, grunt]

- Ouch.
- [gasps]

Ha ha! Evil never triumphs

against a truly obsessive fan!

- Yeah! Evil never triumphs

over a oscillating fan!

- [groans] Hm?

Not so fast, Bubble Bass.

I've got one more trick
up my sleeve.

Or should I say, up my glove!

[screaming] [laughs menacingly]

- A Patrick Star action figure?

Ha! No collector would

touch such trash.

- Plus, it's a choking hazard.

- [grunts]

- What's going on?

- That fiend, HooDoo,
is using his magic

Voodoo doll powers.

- [laughing]

[grunts]

- [choking]
- Sorry.

- I'll take that. [laughs]

[laughing]

[both shouting]

- Stop! I'm allergic

to centrifugal force!

Uh-oh.

to its rightful owner.

Me. - Well done, pal.

Hi, Fred.

I got a magic trick
that's gonna dazzle you.

my leg in half,

or make it disappear,
or pull a rabbit out of it?

I'm washing my thighs tonight.

My leg!
