Characters

Synopsis

It is a normal day at the Krusty Krab where Old Man Jenkins is making an order until Jim, the original Krusty Krab fry cook, arrives in his golden limousine. Mr. Krabs and Squidward remember back when the Krusty Krab had "class." Squidward had long hair and Jim was the fry cook. Jim makes a Krabby Patty and SpongeBob eats it and loves it. He wants to cook like Jim, and Jim says not to step on the patty since the customers run over a Krabby Patty made by SpongeBob when headed to greet Jim.

Jim makes the perfect Krabby Patty.

Jim then gives SpongeBob lessons on how to make his Krabby Patties better, but the latter cannot meet the former's standards, so SpongeBob decides to resign and give his job back to Jim. Jim tells SpongeBob he quit because he wanted to do bigger things with his fry cook career and also because Mr. Krabs laughed at him when he asked for a raise, thinking it was a big joke. Mr. Krabs reveals that SpongeBob has one thing Jim does not have: he is cheap (SpongeBob doesn't care of the raise). Jim tells SpongeBob he's a great fry cook and that he could be an even greater fry cook, but only if he leaves the Krusty Krab which he calls a dump, in which SpongeBob says that it's not a dump. Mr. Krabs says insists that it is a dump, but that it's his dump, as the episode ends.

  • When SpongeBob runs out of the stall crying, Incidental 37B looks inside, sees the flood, and exclaims "Aw man!" This is a reference to "The Bully," when Incidental 37B goes inside the restroom stall, sees a sponge in the toilet, and says, "Oh that's real nice."
