Plot[edit]
Plankton is vandalizing Bikini Bottom in order to send a message that Mr. Krabs is a jerk, but ends up getting arrested for this crime. However, when the police officer arrives at the prison as Mr. Krabs tags along, she realizes it's in max capacity and has to let Plankton go. After she says she wishes there was another place in town to put extra prisoners and she's reward that place with cash, Mr. Krabs turns his restaurant into a prison and takes Plankton in.
Mr. Krabs puts Plankton in a cage, but when he tries to trick him in order to escape, he drops Plankton into the inside of SpongeBob's body through his holes as a bigger punishment. The officer comes back and sends more prisoners for Mr. Krabs to handle for more money, so he asks SpongeBob to prison-up the place for the newcomers.
After the place becomes a full-on prison, Mr. Krabs takes Plankton out of SpongeBob and puts him in the secret formula bottle with the formula itself outside of it. After that, SpongeBob gives the mail to all the prisoners. Meanwhile, Mr. Krabs continues giving punishments to Plankton until his sentence his up.
As Plankton walks away, he tells him he hopes the prison is worth what he's paying for it, making him realize all the prisoners are getting pampered by SpongeBob. He takes away all their luxuries, making them throw tomatoes at Mr. Krabs, driving away the customers.
He gets fed up and releases all the prisoners, only for them to come to SpongeBob's place and ask him to put them back into their cells as they were having fun with him. The next day, Mr. Krabs sees that all the prisoners are back, making him angry at SpongeBob as he released them. However, the officer was sitting at a desk nearby, and punishes him by sending him to the Chum Bucket to get punished by Plankton.
