[edit] Plot
SpongeBob frantically tumbles out of bed excited about his day, but much to his friendship mishap, he ends up being nothing but a "clumsy pest" called "Idiot Boy". So he decides to pack up and leave Bikini Bottom forever, believing that everyone dislikes him. As he walks away, he takes a nasty fall off a cliff and bonks himself in the head so hard that he loses his memory.
SpongeBob, meanwhile, wanders into New Kelp City, deciding to rename himself is CheeseHead BrownPants. He tries to get a job, but fails to do so because the townspeople dislike his bubble-blowing. He then gets confronted by an angry group of gangsters called "The Bubble Popping Boys". They chase him down the streets until SpongeBob traps them in a bubble. He is then pictured as a hero by the citizens of New Kelp City, who elect him mayor CheeseHead BrownPants.
Meanwhile, Everyone in Bikini Bottom notices SpongeBob's absence. Patrick, Sandy and Mr. Krabs feel bad for hurting SpongeBob's feelings and set off their quest for him. Squidward is very glad to be rid of SpongeBob but reluctantly tags along with them after Mr. Krabs offers him a nice egg as a gift for finding him.
After they finally find SpongeBob in the middle of a speech, Sandy and Patrick try to convince him to come back by getting them to remember them, but he does not remember anything, and states that he is late for a meeting. He then gets into his private car, but the driver turns out to be Squidward (who is desperate to get the egg). He drives the group back to the Krusty Krab, where SpongeBob refuses to be fry cook. Squidward then trips with his new egg, which lands on SpongeBob's head, bringing the return of SpongeBob's memory. As seen on TV, with Perch Perkins as the news reporter, the citizens of New Kelp City are angry at SpongeBob for leaving them, so SpongeBob decides to remain fry cook rather than go back to being mayor. Finding this a disappointment, Squidward puts his brain in the garbage can.
