Synopsis[]

At the city hall, the mayor is holding a ceremony for a time capsule designed by Sandy, and the citizens donate their items. SpongeBob leaves a happy message by laughing into it, Patrick mistakes it for a trash can, a fish who is annoyed by Squidward's clarinet throws it into the capsule, and Krabs donates a Krabby Patty with the hope of it being more valuable in the future. Plankton comes in on a rocket to steal the patty, with Krabs dismissively shutting him in, locking him into it for around 2000 years. Nobody notices that Plankton is trapped inside, except Karen, who ignores him.

About 2000 years later, the time capsule re-emerges and opens up. Plankton notices that everything in town is made of chrome, and goes exploring, coming across the Chrome Bucket. Karen, who has evolved into a chrome orb, comes outside. Plankton tries to get into the Chrome Bucket for tools to take over the world, but Karen tells him the whole world is different now, and takes him around town to show him.

They stop by Squidward's house, which is now a museum. Squidward's music has become appreciated in the future, although his success only started the day after he died. Patrick has become a shapeshifting liquid metal Terminator, who chews Plankton up, is disappointed by his taste, and goes back to sleep. SpongeBob is a now a solid chrome box cube on a wheel, whose laugh still annoys Plankton. The Kromey Krab is out of business because everyone knows the secret formula and can summon Krabby Patties themselves. Plankton is frustrated and wants to return back to his time, so Karen takes him to Sandy's treedome, which is not made of chrome.

Plankton goes inside and sees Sandy's Kamp Koral self, who had been traveling across time and space since the end of camp. Sandy agrees to take Plankton 2000 years in the past, after which Karen reveals she is now dating a muscular future version of Plankton. When Plankton returns to his regular time, Sandy erases his memories so he forgets the secret formula, says goodbye, and leaves. Plankton stumbles around until he finds Mr. Krabs about to put the Krabby Patty in the time capsule, so he goes after it just like he did the first time around. He suddenly feels deja-vu before Krabs locks him in again.

Trivia[]

General[]

• This episode, alongside "Squidiot Box," "Blood is Thicker Than Grease," its sister episode, "Mooned!," "Hysterical History," and "Kreepaway Kamp" serve as this season's 25th anniversary specials.
  • Additionally, it and "Blood is Thicker Than Grease" both star Plankton, and are both in season 14, and both episodes premiered in July of 2024.
• The half-hour this episode is packaged into marks the 300th special episode in the series.
  • Additionally, it also marks the first 300th-half-hour of any Nicktoon.
  • This is another episode where a character travels into the future. In this case, it's Plankton. Squidward had done the same thing 13 seasons earlier in "SB-129," way back in season 1.
• The title card of the episode also resembles the one from "SB-129", although it doesn't have a voiceover narrating the title, and the title itself does not levitate around space, with the credits also rolling on a standard underwater background instead of the title card's one.
• This episode marks the first involvement with Mikros Animation in SpongeBob SquarePants, who provided the 3D animation for "Kamp Koral" Sandy.
  • This is also the first episode in the main series to have "Kamp Koral" Sandy and "SpongeBob SquarePants" Sandy in the same episode, and is also the first episode in the franchise in general to have "Kamp Koral" Sandy and "SpongeBob SquarePants" Sandy in it in three years, following the Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years season 1 episode "Kitchen Sponge." In addition, unlike "Kitchen Sponge," "Kamp Koral" Sandy and "SpongeBob SquarePants" Sandy do not interact with each other at all in "PL-1413" nor do they appear on-screen together.
• This is the first episode Brian Morante has storyboard directed for the main show since "Escape from Beneath Glove World."
• This episode was paired up with "Blood is Thicker Than Grease" during the original American airing.
• This episode takes place in an infinite loop, ending right where it began.

Episode references[]

• This episode's title and plot reference that of season 1's "SB-129."
  • In its press listing, this is listed as a "sequel episode."
  • Additionally, both episodes' titles reference their respective production codes. In the case of PL-1413, "PL" stands for Plankton, and it is the 13th segment produced for season 14, hence "1413."
