Synopsis
The episode starts off with Plankton pampering Karen and giving her a mud bath. As Plankton and Karen are about to kiss, Karen's screen turns off and is replaced with a call from Plankton's grandmother. It turns out that Plankton promised to own the Krusty Krab by her 90th birthday, and her birthday is tomorrow and she is coming to visit the Krusty Krab. Because of this, Plankton has to lie and keep the lie going when she visits. Plankton explains to SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs the situation, and after explaining it in a sincere way, SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs agree to give the Krusty Krab a Plankton-themed makeover.
The next day, Plankton's grandma visits the now-Plankton-themed Krusty Krab to take a look. While Plankton is trying to force SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs, and Squidward into the scheme, Grandma Plankton starts to develop a crush on Squidward. Grandma Plankton introduces herself as Lily and wants to have a Plankton Patty, so SpongeBob makes on for Lily and forces Squidward to chew it for her.
The scheme finally works out until Lily wants a picture with the Secret Formula. Plankton does his sincere face and Mr. Krabs hands over Lily the formula. As they start to take a picture, Lily flies away with a jetpack. Mr. Krabs gets angry at Plankton for creating a plan to steal the formula, but Plankton didn't knew a thing about this; however Plankton thinking he won, thinks he can rule the fast food industry with Grandma, but Lily states she's not sharing the formula and drops Plankton and flies away to the retirement home.
Finally winning, Lily daydreams her idea of forcing Squidward to be her ally while the other citizens (including Plankton) has to fight over the patties Lily throws. However, before she can open the bottle, Lily goes to sleep, so Mr. Krabs get the formula back and Plankton gives Lily prune juice, wishing Lily happy birthday, ending the episode after Lily slaps Plankton with her purse.
