Hmm?

Ooh, a quarter!

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme.

Whew, come back here, you!

Hey, hey, where are you going?

Whew.

Eh?

Yah!

Huh?

Ooh, this quarter is

[clinks]

Huh?
Hey, get back here!

Ugh!

[grunting]

- Greetings, stranger.
- Ahh!

Welcome to my
Emporium of Wonders.

Can I interest you
in a traditional

Klopnodian Spladunker?

Or perhaps a lightly
used Flooner?

No thanks, old timer.

I just want me quarter.

It seems to have hopped
into your pay phone here.

Oh, I see.

Well I have no power
to retrieve your coin,

but I can let you
have the payphone

for the low, low price of...

free.

Free?
I'll take it!

But be warned, that
payphone comes with a curse.

[thunder booms]
[woman screams]

Really?
How much does the curse cost?

What?
No, the curse is free.

It comes with the phone.

Well then!

I'll take the curse, too!

- [chuckling]
- Heed my Kapritzka!

Beware the call of the porch!

Beware!

Ah, forget it.

[grunting]

Listen up, happy Krustomers!

For the low price of
a quarter, now you, too,

can make that important call

while you're eating
a Krabby Patty!

[ringing]

Ahoy, there. Krusty Krab.

Eugene Krabs,
proprietor, speaking.

[evil laughter]

Give away your
Krabby Patties!

Give them all away!

[gasps] What kind of obscene
phone call is this?

When I find out who you are,
I'm gonna--

Oh!

Hey!

[line trilling]

Must give patties away.

[cash register dings]

[all exclaim]
No money.

Patties free!

Free patties?

Oh, Mr. Krabs!

You finally found
your inner generosity.

Hooray!

Krabby Patties for everyone!

Wha! Yow!

The Krab is picking up the tab!

[all hooting and hollering]

All free.

[all cheering]

[all munching]

[evil laughter]

[blubbering]

Huh? What just happened?

Oh, boy! A quarter!

I knew this thing
would pay off!

- Patties here!
- [yelps]

Free patties!

Get your patties
while they're hot!

Get 'em while they're free!

Free?
[woman screams]

[grunts]

SpongeBob! There's no free
lunches at the Krusty Krab!

[all clamoring]
Have you gone insane?

Get back in the kitchen
and stitch

these patty halves
back together

so we can sell 'em again.

[sign poofs]

[groans]
It was too good to last.

[ringing]

Krusty Krab, Eugene--
[groans]

[evil laughter]
Now give away your money!

Every last cent!

Must give away money.

[panting]

[whistle blares]

[all cheering]

Give away all money, Boy-O!

But you just said that--

Oh, I knew you were
only kidding, Mr. Krabs!

You really are generous!
[chuckles]

[muttering]

[chuckles]
Another quarter!

I love this phone!
[cash register dings]

- [all clamoring]
- Whoo! [laughing]

Whee!
[all cheering]

SpongeBob!

What are you doing
with me money?

Well, I thought you
told me to, Mr. Krabs.

I--oh, I don't understand.

[phone ringing]

- Uh! Ooh!
- And now, Krabs,

give away the Krusty Krab!

[evil laughter]

[grunting]

Yes!
With this laser cannon,

I can finally blast Krabs!

Huh?

Homina-wha?

Here his deed to Krusty Krab.

She's all yours.

Something doesn't
seem right here.

But like Granny Plankton
always says,

never look a gift snail
under the shell!

I win!

I'm the greatest!

Huh?
[clank]

Uh-oh.

[hypnotic music]

Ooh!

Huh?

Ohh, what the--
where's me quarter?

Perhaps generosity
is its own reward?

- Never!

[grunts, laughs]

Huh? Ooh.

Uh--

[both growling]

Huh?

[laughing]

Hey, what's the big idea?

And where is that quarter
you owe--

I'm free!
Ha-ha!

[muttering] Um--

Hey kid, lend me
a quarter for the bus?

Sure thing, Mr. Demon!

I'm finally free!

[laughs]

[phone ringing]

Well, this ain't so bad.

Steady work,
and plenty of quarters!

A crab could get used to this!

Hey! What's going on?

Hey, Squidward,

out of here, would you?

Come on.

Only costs a quarter.
