Plot: Plankton is in terrible pain from teething and cannot find comfort anywhere. When Sandy tells him that his pain will ultimately pass, it gives him the idea to build a machine that will move time forward to the point where his teething will have already stopped.

Meanwhile, SpongeBob drives Patrick to his soccer game, where he gets into a fight with another fish who insulted Patrick for his playing ability. He punches the fish, who SpongeBob then realizes is not a man, as he had assumed,but rather a masculine-looking pregnant woman.

SpongeBob is put under house arrest for assult and soon finds that he misses his friends. He decided to build a bar in the basement so that his friends can come visit and hang out with him. It isn't long before the basement becomes a local hot spot. When Sandy discovers this, she's upset, but then she gets a chance to sing on stage before an adoring crowd. As she enjoys the spotlight, SpongeBob becomes increasingly uncomfortable with all the attention she's getting, especially from the male patrons.

Meanwhile, Plankton's time machine plans are discovered, causing him to panic about breach of security. In a clear move to protect the plans, he uses the machine to go back in time before his plans were actually found. But he reverses time as SpongeBob is having an epiphany about how poorly he treats Sandy and seconds before the basment bar goes up in flames. Plankton even manages to back time up to before Patrick's soccer game, successfully avoiding the whole altercation between and the pregnat soccer mom. But, unfortunately, his teething pain is still with him.
