Plot

The Chimpanzee beneficiaries of Sandy’s undersea Treedome are paying a visit to see what progress she has made with her inventions. But Sandy doesn’t think any of her work will satisfy the chimps, and if they don’t like what she’s invented Sandy could lose her funding forcing her to leave Bikini Bottom. She is really sad because all of her new inventions are unsuccessful. SpongeBob and Patrick decide to help their distraught friend by taking over her work and finishing her inventions. They think of ideas to make inventions and the goof is that Patrick is making up things that have already been invented. What SpongeBob and Patrick invent is a back- scratching, hair-cutting, ukulele-tuning, nose-picking machine. One of the chimps enter it and it is working well Until It goes wrong and Sandy nearly leaves. The chimps are angry until one of the chimps sees a machine that was supposed to crack nuts. It actually was a banana-peeling nutcracker that won her 20 years of funding. So this made Sandy so excited and happy.
