Synopsis

The episode begins with Squidward waiting on the bus stop, seeing a dead fish sitting on a bench, becoming decomposed to dust. While the bus has arrived, the bus driver is not having a good mood. So after the the bus ride, Squidward and the bus driver started an argument. Mr. Krabs stops the argument by switching their places so they can feel which job is harder as a bus driver or a cashier.

Squidward started enjoying his switch to a bus driver. He stopped at the bus stop to pick up Mable, until SpongeBob shows up waiting at the next bus stop. Squidward stops at the bus stop to pick up SpongeBob and hugs him. Squidward says, "Get off of Me and pay fare!" SpongeBob carried a lot of pennies in his wallet, and inserting a bunch of pennies and Squidward swats the wallet away.

Squidward starts the bus. As SpongeBob starts making weird noises, Squidward loses concentration on the road, causing the bus to turn left and right and flying off the highway, which crashes into a billboard. Squidward says "Don't help me drive" and SpongeBob lets go the steering, which causes the bus to tip over, and Squidward grabs the invisible steering and set the bus back up.

Squidward looks at the mirror to see SpongeBob seating in the back and continues to drive. But when Squidward checks at the mirror SpongeBob is sitting at another seat, waving at Squidward, and scares Squidward when he's in the mirror. SpongeBob continues to help Squidward, so he put a pillow under the brakes for soft braking. Squidward tries to use the brakes, but it wouldn't stop so starts speeding, and throws at Frank which it causes the Bikini Bottom to have a pillow fight.

Squidward asks SpongeBob to tell him that where is his stop, SpongeBob steps on other people's heads while heading to the drivers seat and Squidward lays his head. Until Patrick waving on the bus stop, which makes Squidward passes the bus stop, and Patrick appears inside the bus. Patrick begins to join SpongeBob's bus riding day, but Squidward is not having a good time.

Patrick is looking for bus money so he checked his pants and grabs SpongeBob and found his wallet but he think he left wallet in his other wallet, Until SpongeBob uses his bag of coins and Patrick starts licking three coins. Later Squidward starts humming while driving until his peace ends SpongeBob and Patrick starts shaking the bus while swinging on the bus straps, until chaos starts in the bus. Squidward cannot take it anymore and gets mad until he cannot find Patrick. SpongeBob explains where he is, that being the bathroom to get out from the exit door, until the bus gets out of control and lands on crash county.

They are about to be crushed to death, and getting sprayed by water. SpongeBob sees someone in the street who is the Grim Reaper, Squidward screams in terror and drives passes him, and the Grim Reaper throws his scythe in anger which makes Squidward continues to drive. Squidward doesn't know where he's going so SpongeBob decides to help Squidward by using his map. SpongeBob tells Squidward the directions which is taking a left nine time the map blocks the window, which makes Squidward can't see. Squidward thinks that SpongeBob's map is upside-down. So SpongeBob pulls back the lever which makes the bus flips over, landed on a geyser, and erupts the bus out of Crush County.

Later in the Krusty Krab the bus driver is trying to figure it out how to work with the cash register which makes the customer and Mr. Krabs mad. Later the bus landed on the Krusty Krab which makes the bus driver quit, SpongeBob and Squidward going back to work. So everything is back to normal until they heard a toilet flushing which is Patrick, and remarks that they are out of toilet paper as the episode ends.
