Characters

Plot

SpongeBob constantly annoys Squidward (as usual) when he wants to play a game. When Squidward shouts angrily at SpongeBob he will never play with him, SpongeBob makes a toy Squidward instead. Squidward is happy at first that SpongeBob won't bother him, but the toy Squidward starts to impress people with talents far greater than the original Squidward's. Eventually he takes Squidward's job, dances for the Krusty Krab and is paid $1,000,000 for a dancing act. Squidward is furious and starts to attack Mini-Squidward. Then a man shows up. He takes Mini-Squidward to be a star and it had taken Squidward's dream. At the end of the episode SpongeBob is revealed to have made a puppet of himself, annoying Squidward even more.
