Plot

At the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs calls SpongeBob and tells him they are out of the secret ingredient. SpongeBob retrieves it in a briefcase, but when he opens it he finds that the ingredient is missing and there is a hole in the top of the case. With Patrick's help, SpongeBob questions Plankton, Sandy, Gary, and Squidward who, after the two accuse them, come up with something the complete opposite of their questions. Unsuccessful, the two go back to the Krusty Krab and report their fiasco to Mr. Krabs, who is found with the secret ingredient shortly after. Mr. Krabs is then forced to give out Krabby Patties for free, as a punishment.

Trivia/Goofs

Judge Horace A. Whopper makes his second appearance in this episode. The first was The Krusty Sponge.
The people who were accused, and how they were:
- Plankton: He had his own version of the Krabby Patty, but SpongeBob never explained how he could have stolen it.
- Sandy: She used an invisibility potion and snuck in, and used a time freezing ray, to use a laser to cut a hole in the case and get it. Sandy said that she just bought the Krabby Patties.
- Gary: Gary snuck on to one of the choppers, and when SpongeBob stopped to tighten his socks, he shot acid out of his eyes, and stole the ingredient. It was deemed impossible by both of them.
- Squidward: Gary said Squidward was walking out of the Krusty Krab with a black suitcase. Squidward shows them that the case contained his tap dancing shoes, in which he won 3rd place in a tap dance competition
- SpongeBob: Mr. Krabs thought that he set up a decoy, then swept down when no one was looking and stole it, then went to the Chum Bucket, and sold it to Plankton for a dollar.
- Mr. Krabs: He was the one who stole it, because he didn't want to pay for it.
This is the second time Sandy was invisible. The first was in Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy V, when she tried to sneak up on the villains without being seen.
Water would have flooded Sandy's dome if SpongeBob were to dig a hole to get inside.
It is revealed that Plankton had every ingredient of the Krabby Patty formula figured out except the secret ingredient, implying that the series is almost finished, because Plankton will soon figure it out and try to take over the world again. However, there may be up to hundreds more episodes before the series ends.
This is the first time Mr. Krabs didn't have a lawsuit.
SpongeBob was tending to the cashier, so who was making the krabby patties?
When SpongeBob yelled "Why'd ya do it Gary?!" it had the same animation as the movie.
How can people sneak up on SpongeBob if there's guards around?
