The Jading

The Jading is a Season 1 episode of SpongeBob & Sagwa taking place after the events of Pilot.

The Script
(The episode opens with SpongeBob, Sheegwa and Sagwa walking down a street in Bikini Bottom. The episode is set after Pilot.)

Sagwa: So, this is Bikini Bottom, huh? It looks like a very nice town.

SpongeBob: Yep, this is where I live. This is where I have all my friends, my job and of course, every fun thing I love to do!

Sheegwa: Wow! Show us everything!

SpongeBob: Okay! First, let's start off with my neighborhood. I can especially guarantee you two that you'll be delighted to meet my neighbor Squidward.

(The episode pans to the trio approaching Conch Street.)

SpongeBob: This right here, is my house! Doesn't it look beautiful?

Sagwa: (dumbfounded) Your house is a giant pineapple?

SpongeBob: Yep.

Sheegwa: It looks kind of delicious.

Sagwa: But what will happen if your house decays one day? Fruits don't stay fresh forever.

SpongeBob: Well, I... never really thought of that, but... I'm pretty sure that won't ever happen. Anyway, let's go next door.

(The trio walk over to Squidward's house.)

Sagwa: So, who's your neighbor again? I forgot his name.

SpongeBob: Squidward, that's his name. (knocks on Squidward's door) Oh, Squidward! Come on out, I have some new friends I think you'll be glad to meet!

Squidward: Go away, SpongeBob!

SpongeBob: Come on, Squidward.

Squidward: No!

SpongeBob: Please?

Squidward: No!

SpongeBob: Pretty please?

Squidward: (growls, then opens his door) I'm going to say this for the last time! I don't care if you have "new friends" to greet to me and I don't want to deal with you, SpongeBob! Now buzz off! (slams the door on SpongeBob)

Sheegwa: Well, that wasn't very nice.

Sagwa: Looks like this Squidward person we tried to say "hello" to is not the friendly kind of neighbor.

SpongeBob: It's okay, he's probably having a bad day. Let's go over to Patrick's house.

Sagwa: Patrick? Haven't I heard that name before?

SpongeBob: What do you mean, Sagwa?

Sagwa: The name... it reminds me of an adventure we had a long time ago...

SpongeBob: Oh, you mean that adventure in which you and I had to rescue Patrick from those Jade Bats?

Sagwa: Oh yeah! That adventure!

SpongeBob: Yeah, epic times. Alrighty then, let's go see Patrick.

(The trio walk over to Patrick's rock.)

SpongeBob: You just have to open up by lifting the rock.

(SpongeBob grapples the bottom of the rock and begins straining to lift it up, Sagwa and Sheegwa look at him awkwardly.)

Sagwa: Uh, SpongeBob, are you okay?

SpongeBob: (struggling) Don't worry, guys. I almost got it!

(The rock opens up, only to reveal the sight of Patrick sleeping.)

Patrick: (snoring)

Sheegwa: He's sleeping?

SpongeBob: Oh. I didn't expect Patrick to be taking a nap the second I open his house. Oh well. (SpongeBob closes the rock.)

Sagwa: I don't think this is going well so far, SpongeBob.

SpongeBob: Don't worry, Sagwa. We'll get to the fun stuff, I promise.

Sagwa: Okay.

Sheegwa: So where are you going to take us next?

SpongeBob: Hmmmm... oh, I know! I can take you two to the Krusty Krab!

Sagwa: "The Krusty Krab"? What place is that?

SpongeBob: It's where I work as a fry cook, and it's home to Bikini Bottom's finest fast food sandwich, the Krabby Patty. I think you two would love to try some.

Sagwa: Alright, take us there.

SpongeBob: No problem!

(The scene ends with SpongeBob, Sheegwa and Sagwa walking to the left out of the shot. The episode pans over to an underground cave, where the Jade Bats are currently residing.)

Jade Bat #1: Sagwa and SpongeBob have sent our master into banishment ever since his errand boy was rescued by those meddlesome fools!

Jade Bat #2: Yeah! But now's our opportunity to get our sweet revenge on them!

Jade Bat #1: Alright, I'll show you all our key to the master's reawakening. (holds out a rusty-looking amulet with Jade Bat hieroglyphics written on it) Behold, the Bianfu-Wang Amulet of Revival!

Jade Bats: (in unison) Oooooh.

Jade Bat #1: With this, our master shall rise from his eternal slumber once again and we will reincarnate our invasions to continue spreading fear and agony.

Jade Bats: (in unison) Yeah!

Jade Bat #1: Now, let the reanimation begin! (inserts the Amulet of Revival into Bianfu-Wang's imprisonment chamber)

(A bright green light begins to glow from the chamber, some of the Jade Bats get hauled back from the force of the light.)

Jade Bat #3: Mommy!

(The light continues to glow and haul back the Jade Bats, Bianfu-Wang is seen coming out of the chamber as a green wisp before he is completely reanimated to his full body.)

Yu Bianfu-Wang: Who dares yet again to summon me, the malicious Yu Bianfu-Wang?!

Jade Bats: (in unison) Master, we have successfully managed to bring you back to life!

Yu Bianfu-Wang: My loyal and slightly foolish minions! I appreciate your honorable deeds of reawakening me.

Jade Bat #1: You are very welcome, master.

Yu Bianfu-Wang: Ah, I see that my highest-ranking minion is still willing to serve me. (Jade Bat #1's true name is revealed by Bianfu-Wang.) Siren Yu Bianfu (translates to "Private Jade Bat" in English), you will shall continue your legacy!

Jade Bat #4: Aww man. How come we don't get ranked up there with Siren?

Yu Bianfu-Wang: Silence!

Jade Bat #4: S-s-sorry, master. Proceed.

Yu Bianfu-Wang: Now... allow me to hatch my most ingenious, most diabolical plan of all time. Ever since those two wretched fools SpongeBob and Sagwa banished me back to my eternal rest and rescued my former errand boy Patrick, we shall begin a new invasion for the purpose of sweet revenge!

Jade Bat #5: Uhh, master? Sorry to interrupt your speech, but I believe Siren said that right before we, you know, used the Amulet of Revival to bring you back.

Yu Bianfu-Wang: Let me continue! So, as I was saying, I have had a vision while I was still imprisoned in that accursed chamber. I remember when I hypnotized one of the two heroes who were sent to oppose me and take away my former prisoner, which later failed completely. Though, I'm afraid I can't recall who I corrupted, was it the cat or the talking sponge? Eh, whatever, back to my monologue.
