Plot

Mr. Krabs decides to have SpongeBob and Patrick do some real work by painting the interior of his house. He tells them not to get the permanent paint on anything except the walls or else he will chop their butts off and hang them on the wall.

Fearful of dripping paint on Mr. Krabs' numerous valuables, SpongeBob and Patrick spend many hours "in mental preparation". SpongeBob then attempts to paint the wall, and uses a hairdryer to keep paint drops from touching the floor. This forms a large paint bubble, which Patrick inflates until it bursts. The bubble sends paint to every section of the wall, painting the entire house and avoiding all of Krabs' artifacts--except for his "most prized possession", his framed first dollar.

SpongeBob and Patrick are unsuccessful at cleaning, replacing, or disguising the stained dollar, and Mr. Krabs returns. Krabs feigns anger about the soiled money, then licks the dollar clean. It turns out that saliva acts as the paint's solvent, and that he told SpongeBob and Patrick otherwise as a joke, which angers them. Krabs laughs heartily at his own jest, spraying spittle around and ruining the paint job.

Trivia/Goofs

This episode breaks the fourth wall due to the fact that Patrick was the one using the time cards.
When Mr. Krabs gets rid of the pictures hanging on the walls, the viewer can see a picture of Painty the Pirate (the pirate captain that sings the theme song).
Mr. Krabs keeps a vending machine in his house.
SpongeBob had five chances to fix the problem about ruining Mr. Krabs' first dollar. They were:
- Patrick should have used the computer to print out a picture of a dollar and paste it on the frame (Which is illegal). Patrick instead devastated the computer preventing this solution.
- The dollar Patrick got out from his wallet, SpongeBob should have grabbed it by force instead of yelling and hoping he does what he tells him.
- They should have licked it.
- They should have looked for money in the house if Mr.Krabs is wealthy.
- They shoud rush to the bank to borrow a dollar instead of wasting time at Mr. Krab's house.
- They Would Just Flip The Dollar!
When the giant paint bubble explode the paint made a puzzle from the fourth wall.
