Characters[]

Synopsis[]

In the beginning of the episode, Patrick is running around in Bikini Bottom, until a stranger with a briefcase yells at him telling him to "get out of town," causing Patrick to run away scared. The stranger then tells another fish to get out of town, and hands him a flyer for a luxury vacation at a modest price to Sunny Shore Resorts. Patrick, unaware of this, runs to SpongeBob and tells him about it. SpongeBob is shocked by the briefcase and tells Patrick he might be a paid assassin. Patrick becomes convinced that he is in danger, and tells SpongeBob he is going to move.

He starts to pack his things, which are actually SpongeBob's, and is ready to leave. But SpongeBob is not ready to let him go, and asks who will perform his daily activities on a list with him, all of which include Patrick. He also asks who will be going to attend the next Jellyfisherman's Expo with him. Patrick says that he has to do them with one of his other friends, and SpongeBob continues crying.

SpongeBob comes up with a few ideas of changing Patrick's identity. First, he tries giving Patrick glasses, but he is frightened and runs into the wall. Larry, who is passing by, recognizes him and Patrick is ready to give up and walks past SpongeBob, instead saying goodbye to various objects. However, SpongeBob does not give up. He takes the seaweed that Patrick said goodbye to and puts it on Patrick's head. As SpongeBob is about to suggest something, Patrick interrupts him, saying he could be Mr. Seaweed Monster Man. SpongeBob points out that there already is a Mr. Seaweed Monster Man in Bikini Bottom. Patrick is upset, and SpongeBob says that, though he can't be a monster, the vegetation on his head gives him an idea.

"Patricia."

The scene cuts to a store. Patrick comes out of a dressing room in a blonde wig and green bikini. As they walk around town, a fish notices Patrick and tips his hat to him. SpongeBob tells Patrick that the plan is working, and refers to him as Patricia. As they giggle at their success, Larry walks up to the pair. He refers to Patricia as SpongeBob's girlfriend, to which SpongeBob denies, walking away in annoyance with Patricia. They then encounter Mr. Krabs, who angrily tells SpongeBob it's time for work. He then takes notice of Patricia, who he becomes smitten with and promptly hires.

In the Krusty Krab, Squidward glances up from his newspaper and promptly takes notice of Patricia. He starts flirting with her and, as Mr. Krabs introduces Patricia to Squidward, it soon becomes a competition between the two. Mr. Krabs and Squidward start flirting with Patricia repeatedly, to which she is initially oblivious about. The two continuously ask her on a date, Patricia turning them down each time, getting increasingly annoyed after each request.

That's No Lady 64

Patrick naked.

Patrick feels that he can't take it anymore and is tired of pretending to be someone he's not. SpongeBob says he can't reveal himself or he'll have to leave town, but Patrick chooses to anyway. Just as he is about to announce to everyone his true identity, he sees the stranger that told him to get out of town and panics. He warns SpongeBob about the stranger, who asks Patricia to take his order. He goes over to him nervously and takes his order. Unfortunately, the fish recognizes him. SpongeBob sees this and confronts the stranger while protecting Patrick. SpongeBob tells the stranger that he'll have to go through him if he wants to run "Patrick" out of town, shocking Mr. Krabs and Squidward at the reveal of Patricia actually being Patrick.

SpongeBob then finds out the fish was just trying to sell Patrick a luxury vacation at a modest price. Patrick, relieved by the clarification, proceeds to rip off his disguise, revealing him to be completely naked. Squidward is disgusted by the news and Mr. Krabs fires Patrick due to not being a woman. Mr. Krabs then proceeds to go to his office in disappointment. SpongeBob and Patrick then run out of the Krusty Krab, eager to do everything they planned to do on their list.
