Plot

SpongeBob says that he couldn't wait for the ancient rains. He also brought an umbrella. Sandy tells him that it is the ancient ruins and not rains. They come to a huge sand castle which is the ruins. Sandy takes a picture. Inside, they see the Charted Caverns of Lemuria. Sandy then tells SpongeBob not to touch anything, as it is filled with "delicate artifacts". SpongeBob pulls a sandy toilet plunger. Then a twisted pentagon-shaped entrance appears and they walk in. They both wonder which way is top and bottom. SpongeBob says that the top is behind them. Then they both fall through the hole. They float down onto the floor, though SpongeBob does not stop screaming initially. They come to a holographic projector. Sandy touches it, and a diamond prism comes out. The prism zaps the top of Sandy's tail with a laser, burning its hair and skin off and revealing some bones. A crystal is zapped by the laser and it shines on two diamonds. The diamonds come together in a tube shape. Three balls are shot out. They turn to robots. Two of them zap SpongeBob and Sandy. They float in zap bubbles to a room full of creations, including delicate statues. One of the statues, the "sculpture of the Sphere Laser Dichotomy", literally holds the room together. A robot tells them that they're not the Lemurian civilization itself; they were built by the Lemurias for janitorial needs. However, a disaster struck, killing the entire Lemurian civilization. They were the only ones left, so they built their own civilization. SpongeBob accidentally destroys the sculpture of the Sphere Laser Dichotomy, which causes the room to fall apart; the whole building collapses soon after. Two days later, they get out of the rubble. The robots aren't happy. SpongeBob feels sorry for them. The robots are sitting at a campfire with wieners wondering what to do now. So SpongeBob gives them jobs as janitors at the Krusty Krab, explaining to Mr. Krabs that he wouldn't have to pay them.
