* ArduousDescentToTerraFirma: Due to an accident involving the fall of a Krabby Patty [=SpongeBob=] intended to retrieve from the roof of the Krusty Krab (plus Mr. Krabs' anger due to [=SpongeBob=]'s fall also resulting in nearby people being filled with ketchup), he develops a fear of heights and becomes unable to come back down. Patrick and Sandy employ different methods to attempt to help him return to the ground but fail miserably. [=SpongeBob=] spends much of the night yearning for his good moments with friends. He later builds a new dining room (which attracts the customers placed below), but a rainstorm occurs and many people get blown off of the roof. He builds a new Krusty Krab on top of the old one to give shelter to the customers and entertains those getting bored with [[ChekhovsSkill a dance he learned earlier in the episode]]. Finally, due to a massive erosion caused by the rain, the floor sinks the old Krusty Krab and lowers the new one to level ground, effectively allowing [=SpongeBob=] and company to leave the old building's roof (as it ''is'' level ground now).
