One Krabby Patty combo.

Hmm.

The soda is flat,
the fries are oily,

and the Krabby Patty is bland.

with you, boyo?

- Aw, I'm bad luck, Mr. Krabs.

Bad luck.

- Bad luck?

The restaurant
business runs on luck.

If bad luck sets in,
the Krusty Krab is doomed.

Everyone out!

Out, out, out, out, out.

I got to burn some
dried kelp and cleanse

this joint of any bad mojo.

Take the day off.

No!

I hope my good luck went

SpongeBob's good luck.

- Hey, Patrick.
- Hey, SpongeBob!

You OK?

- I lost my lucky tie clip.

I am now the unluckiest
person alive.

Can I have a hug?

- No, thank you.

I wouldn't touch you
with a 10-foot pole.

I don't want your bad luck
to rub off on me.

- Oh, what am I going to do?

- Hmm.

Why don't you find
a new lucky charm?

- Great idea.

Thanks, Patrick.

I'd do without you,

my lucky 11-foot pole.

Oh, a four-leaf kelp.

They're really lucky.

A new freeway?

That's not lucky.

Ow, ow.

A sea bunny's foot.

They're extra lucky.

attached to the sea bunny.

My tie clip?

I had it with me all day?

Huh, it was just
like Squidward said.

Hey, Squidward, you were right.

Luck was all just in my head.

I don't need this solid
gold lucky tie clip.

[whistles]

But it never hurts
to be on the safe side.

Hey, Squidward,
my good luck is back.

Back in my head.

No.

I didn't want to do this,

- Hi, Squidward.

- Patrick, what could
you possibly want

at this hour of the night?

I need to hear your life story.

- Just as I thought,
an idiotic--

what?

You need to hear my life story?

- Yep.

- Well, it's such short notice.

I don't have anything prepared,

except this rough manuscript.

I call it "Tentacles:
Eight Legs, Eight Lives."

- But you only have four legs.

- And two arms.

- Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that makes eight.

I'm just getting bored.

Well, at least
my pipe works for him.

If I'm not sleepy,

I'll just have
to tire myself out.

I've got you now,
you little old man.

a picture of my grandkids?

- Uh, hi, Patrick.

Still not sleeping, huh?

- How can you tell?

- Just a hunch.
[laughs]

Looks like you need
a visit from the Sandman.

He'd blow a little
sand in your eyes,

and you'd be out like a light.

- A Sandman.
[laughs]

Eyes, out like a light!

[maniacal laughter]

- OK.
See you later.

- [laughing]

Me make Sandman.

[laughter]

[spooky music]

OK, Mr. Sandman.

Now blow sand in my eyes
and put me to sleep.

What's wrong?

You need more sand?

Gah!

- Get back here!

- Ooh, you'll have
to catch me first.

- Whee!

[car alarm blaring]

- Hey, cool, a raving lunatic.

- I'll chase you to the ends
of the ocean, Sandman!

Gah!

- Finally.

Oh, oh, that's it.

Keep it coming.

Oh, where are you going?

- Come on.
More!

Where are you going?

Better.
But I need more!

- Ooh-hoo!

[blows raspberry]

- Sandman, your stupid
sleep sand doesn't work!

- Patrick, stop!

That's no Sandman.

That's Squidward.

- Ay, ay.

[groaning]

- Oops.

- [groaning]

Hmph.

Another misadventure
for my memoir.

- It's no use, SpongeBob.

All the Sandman's sand
couldn't make me sleepy.

I guess I'll just be awake
for the rest of my life.

- Oh, aha.

If you're going
to be awake forever,

then you might as well
put that to good use.

- [laughs]

SpongeBob, you were right.

My "awakeyness"
makes me the perfect

all-night long-haul trucker.

[horn honks]

- 10-4, good buddy.

- All right,
keep your rubber side down

and the bugs off your glass.

I'll catch you on the flip.
