Transcript
(We open at a courtroom. Bikini Bottom's district attorney stands at one table, and the Dirty Bubble and his lawyer stand at the other.)

Judge: This case is now dismissed. (bangs gavel)

District attorney: Your honor, if you could please reconsider...

(The judge walks into another room, and the district attorney puts his head in his hands.)

District attorney: (sighs) Not again.

(The Dirty Bubble floats out of the courtroom, where Sal, one of his henchmen, is waiting for him.)

Dirty Bubble: Thanks for bribing the judge for me, Sal.

Sal: No problem, boss. Where to next?

Dirty Bubble: Well, we'll obviously have to teach Mermaid Man a lesson. Where did you see him last?

Sal: He and Man Ray were duking it out on the plaza.

Dirty Bubble: Man Ray?

Sal: Yeah! Don't you read the news anymore?

Dirty Bubble: We don't get the paper in jail.

Sal: Oh, right. Sorry. Man Ray is Mermaid Man's worst enemy.

Dirty Bubble: Really? What makes him so special?

Sal: He's a diabolical villain with no regard for underwater life or property.

Dirty Bubble: Sounds like my kind of guy. How can I get in touch with him?

Sal: He's in jail now.

Dirty Bubble: Well, I can't have that!

Sal: What, you're gonna spring him?

Dirty Bubble: Sure! All this Man Ray needs is direction, and I have direction to spare! Together, we can eliminate Mermaid Boy from the face of the Earth!

(The theme song plays.)

(Cut to Man Ray's jail cell. A guard unlocks the cell and gives Man Ray a slip of paper.)

Man Ray: Huh? What's going on?

Guard: You're free to go.

Man Ray: Really? Just like that?

Guard: Yes. Just go to that address, and there won't be any problems from here on out.

(Man Ray shrugs, reads at the slip of paper, and walks out of the police station.)

(Cut to an abandoned warehouse. Man Ray enters the warehouse and looks around.)

Man Ray: Nice place you got here.

Dirty Bubble: Thank you.

Man Ray: Whoa! Are you...

Dirty Bubble: If you're about to say the Dirty Bubble, then yes.

Man Ray: How did you get me out of the brig?

Dirty Bubble: I have connections all around. Getting you out of jail was easy.

Man Ray: What do you want with me?

Dirty Bubble: I want to make a deal with you.

Man Ray: What kind of deal?

Dirty Bubble: The kind where you get to see Mermaid Man perish before your very eyes.

Man Ray: Sounds exciting.

Dirty Bubble: It will be.

(The Dirty Bubble takes a rolled-up blueprint out from under a couch.)

Dirty Bubble: Now, this is how it's gonna go down...

(Cut to Mermaid Man's house. Mermaid Man is reading a book with the radio on.)

Reporter: (on the radio) Breaking news! Man Ray is standing on the roof of a lighthouse, threatening to drop a baby off it if the baby's parents don't pay a ransom of $100,000!

Mermaid Man: (gasps) Man Ray? Again?

(Cut to the aforementioned lighthouse. Spectators are gathered all around it, pointing to Man Ray at the top, who seems to be holding a baby by the legs.)

Commissioner Johnson: All of you! Get out of the way! My police squad is trying to handle the situation!

(Suddenly, Mermaid Man appears above the lighthouse and lands beside Man Ray.)

Commissioner Johnson: (rolls eyes) Of course.

Mermaid Man: Hand over the baby!

Man Ray: Mermaid Man! You got here sooner than I thought.

(Mermaid Man punches Man Ray, and Man Ray nearly lets go of the baby.)

Man Ray: (wags finger) Ah-ah-ah.

Mermaid Man: Give it to me!

Man Ray: You want it? Take it, then!

(Man Ray turns around and throws the baby, and Mermaid Man chases after it. When he catches it, he realizes that the baby is just a doll.)

Mermaid Man: What the...

(The baby doll explodes, sending Mermaid Man flying back and crashing through one of the lighthouse walls.)

Mermaid Man: What...is going...on?

(Mermaid Man faints.)
