SpongeBob and Patrick decided to pay him a. Their friend lay in the hospital bed, anesthetized, snoring softly. "Thank you," Karen said, her digital voice wavering. "We appreciate it. They had to reset the bone and sew it back together. He won't feel anything now, but once the anesthesia wears off, he'll be in some pain. Your support means a lot to us.” Patrick leaned back, his gaze still locked on Plankton. "How long does he have to stay asleep?" he asked. "Awhile," she said. "It's important for him to rest and recover. Plankton might be a bit...overwhelmed when he wakes up. He might not be able to respond right now but it's the thought that counts." "What's that?" he pointed at the intravenous drip attached to Plankton's arm. "That's the anesthesia, what keeps him asleep during the surgery so he doesn't feel any pain." Patrick's eyes grew wide with wonder. "What's that like?" "Well, it's like being in a deep sleep," she began, "you don't feel anything, and when you wake up, it's like you never left your bed." His chest rises and falls with each gentle snore, a sound that echoes faintly in the quiet room. "Karen, why is he snoring?" "It's his body's way of breathing while asleep. He’s in a deep sleep." The lead doctor came. "We're going to start bringing him out of it now. He'll be coming out of anesthesia soon." SUMMARY^1: Plankton is in the hospital after a leg surgery, with SpongeBob and Patrick visiting. Karen explains the surgery and the necessity of rest post-anesthesia. Patrick questions the intravenous drip and snoring, and Karen informs him it's normal during deep sleep induced by anesthesia. The doctor then enters to start the process of waking Plankton up. Eventually Plankton's eye fluttered open, looking up at them with a glazed expression before his pupil focused. "Wha...where...what happened?" he stuttered, his voice groggy. "Why does everything feel...so...floaty?" he asked, his voice trailing off as he tried to lift his head., and it flopped back down onto the pillow. "Whoa, ship's a-rockin'!" he exclaimed. "Weeeee!" he giggled. "A Krabby Patty...no, a Krabby Patty...no, wait, a Krabby...a Krabby...a Krabby..." His words trailed off into nonsense, and he started to giggle uncontrollably. "He'll be fine, just let him talk it out." "I need...I need...a...a...Krabby...P...P...Patty!" He giggled again, his mind still a bit foggy. "Look, friends! Look at me go!" The doctor and nurse entered the room, checking Plankton's vitals and smiling at his slurred words. "He's coming out of it normally," the doctor assured them. "Just keep talking to him, it'll help him come back to reality." SpongeBob and Patrick exchanged glances. "Krabby Patty, huh?" Sponge Bob said, trying to lighten the mood. "Well, I'm sure we can find you one of those once you're feeling better." Plankton giggled again, his eye drifted to the side. "But for now, let's just focus on getting you well, okay?" SUMMARY^1: Plankton wakes up from surgery, feeling floaty and confused due to the anesthesia. He starts to babble incoherently about Krabby Patties. Sponge Bob and Patrick try to reassure him while the doctor and nurse monitor his condition, confirming this is a normal post-anesthesia reaction. They promise to get him one when he recovers. The doctor nodded. "He'll be in and out of consciousness for a bit. It's perfectly normal." Patrick leaned in closer to Plankton. "You hear that, Plankton? We're here for you, buddy.” He hands him some water. "Ahh," he sighed, his eyes fluttering shut again. "Krabby...Patty...water...good." “You just rest up, and we'll grab you a Krabby Patty when you're all fixed." Plankton's giggles turned into snores again, his eyelid drooping closed. The doctor chuckled. "It's the medication. He'll be in and out like this for a little while. Just keep talking to him, it'll help keep him grounded." The door to the hospital room creaked open, and Mr. Krabs poked his head in, looking around suspiciously. "Sponge Bob! Patrick!" he bellowed. Mr. Krabs' eyes narrowed as he took in the sight of Plankton in the hospital bed. "Heard about the accident," he said gruffly. "Thought I'd check on the little scamp." Plankton's eye snapped open again, his expression shifting from groggy to instantly alert. "Krabs!" he hissed. "What are you doing?" Mr. Krabs waved a dismissive claw. "Just makin' sure my number one competitor is out of commission," he said with a smirk. "But it seems you're in good company." Sponge Bob stepped forward, his smile firmly in place. "Mr. Krabs, we're just here to support Plankton. He's had a rough day." Mr. Krabs' smirk grew. "Ah, yes, the great Plankton, laid low by his own incompetence. Couldn't even steal a Krabby Patty without breaking a leg." SUMMARY^1: Plankton wakes up briefly, still groggy from anesthesia and talks incoherently about Krabby Patties. Mr. Krabs arrives, feigning concern but his true intentions are clear. Sponge Bob stands up to him, emphasizing their purpose is to support Plankton during his recovery. The room grew tense as Plankton's face reddened, his tiny fists balling up the hospital sheets. "It wasn't like that, Krabs," he protested, his voice strained. "It was an accident!" But Mr. Krabs was relentless. "Always an accident with you, isn't it?" He chuckled, his tone mocking. "You're as clumsy as you are small." Sponge Bob took a deep breath, his heart swelling with hope. "Mr. Krabs, maybe now's not the best time to tease him. Plankton's really hurting." The tension in the room grew thicker than a Kelp Shake. Plankton's tiny frame quivered with indignation. The anesthesia, however, was playing tricks on his emotions. He could feel the tears welling up in his eye, and before he knew it, they were spilling over, tracing a salty path down his cheeks. "Ah Don't listen to him, Plankton," Sponge Bob whispered, his own eyes growing misty. "You're not incompetent. It was just an accident." Karen's screen flickered with concern. "Mr. Krabs, please. He's not well." "I don't need your pity, Krabs!" he spat out, his voice filled with embarrassment. Karen's screen flickered again. "Mr. Krabs, he needs space. He'll be in and out of it for a bit longer, but perhaps he'd appreciate the visit when fully conscious." Mr. Krabs then left. Plankton's breathing grew even, and his eye began to droop. "I think he's falling asleep," Patrick whispers. "Alright, he's all set to go home. Just remember, he'll need plenty of rest and care over the next few weeks. No strenuous activity, and keep that leg elevated." They nodded solemnly, eager to get their friend back to his safe haven, the Chum Bucket. Carefully, they helped him into a wheelchair, his sleepy head lolling onto Sponge Bob's shoulder. "Mmm, Krabby Patty," he murmured, his mumbled voice trailing off into a snore. Patrick held the car door open as Sponge Bob gently maneuvered Plankton out of the chair, trying not to jostle him too much. He snored quietly, his body still feeling the after effects of the anesthesia. They buckled him into the back seat, his head lolling to the side as SpongeBob sat by him. The car's gentle vibrations and the soft hum of the engine lulled Plankton further into his anesthesia-induced slumber. His snores grew louder, echoing through the car's cabin. Sponge Bob watched him, his heart aching at the sight of his friend in pain. He reached over and patted his arm reassuringly. "It's okay, Plankton," he whispered. "You're going to be okay." The drive to the Chum Bucket was a quiet one, punctuated only by Plankton's intermittent snoring and the occasional burst of slurred words. "Karen...chum...water... Krabby Patty...friend," he would murmur, his voice a gentle reminder of the person behind the villainous exterior. "Chum...Karen...Krabs...Sponge...Bob...Patrick...Krabby Patty...Karen...chum...chum...chum..." Sponge Bob and Patrick shared a look in the rearview mirror, their expressions a mix of concern and amusement. "It's like he's having a conversation with himself," Patrick whispered, trying not to laugh. "Must be the anesthesia," Sponge Bob said, his voice low so as not to disturb Plankton. "He'll probably remember none of it when he wakes up." Once they arrived at the Chum Bucket, they carefully transferred Plankton to his bed, his snores becoming less frequent and more rhythmic as he slipped into a deeper sleep. They left him with a glass of water and a bowl of chum for when he awoke, feeling a bit of relief knowing he was home and safe. Hours later, Plankton's snoring finally ceased, and he blinked his eye open, feeling a dull ache in his leg. The room was dimly lit, and he squinted to see Sponge Bob and Patrick sitting by his bed in his bedroom. "What...what happened?" he asked, his voice slurred. Sponge Bob gave him a gentle smile. "Yes," Patrick said, his voice filled with the excitement of someone who'd just watched a really good movie. "You were talking in your sleep, and you kept asking for Krabby Patties!" Plankton's frown deepened as he tried to sit up, only to wince in pain. "Krabby Patties?" “You talked about Krabby Patties like they were the holy grail, and you kept calling for Karen. It was like you were having the weirdest, most amazing dream ever!" But Patrick was on a roll. "And the way your one arm kept flailing around, like you were trying to swat a jellyfish!" He couldn't hold in his laughter any longer, and it echoed through the room, making Plankton's cheeks burn even hotter. Sponge Bob's smile grew wider, his laughter bubbling up. "You know, Patrick might be onto something. You really were like a tiny, snoring sea creature in there!" Patrick couldn't contain himself. "And when Mr. Krabs came in, oh boy!" He leaned in closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. "You started crying like a baby seagull begging for food!" Plankton's tiny fists clenched the bedsheets, his embarrassment morphing into anger. "That's not funny, Patrick." he snapped, his voice sharp. But Patrick was undeterred. "Oh, come on, Plankton! You have to admit, it was pretty hilarious!" He mimicked Plankton's snoring, which only made Sponge Bob laugh harder. Plankton glared at him, his one good eye narrowing. "You think this is funny?" he grumbled. "I could've been in serious trouble, and all you can do is laugh about it!" Sponge Bob's laughter subsided, his expression turning solemn. "We're not laughing at you, Plankton," he said, placing a comforting hand on Plankton's shoulder. "We're just happy you're okay. And, well, you have to admit, it was a little bit funny." Plankton's anger dissipated, and he let out a sigh. "I guess I can see the humor in it," he conceded, his voice still a bit gruff. "But I'm serious, I don't want anyone else to know about this." "Don't worry, Plankton," Sponge Bob assured him. "Your Krabby Patty-filled dreams are safe with us." “Dreams? What do you mean, and how would you know if I was dreaming?” Patrick couldn’t resist. “Oh, you were dreaming alright, buddy. You were in Krabby Patty heaven, floating on a cloud made of chum!” Plankton rolled his eye, feeling a bit more like himself. “I was not dreaming of Krabby Patties, you oaf!” Sponge Bob giggled. “But you kept asking for them, Plankton in your sleep!” Plankton huffed, trying to sit up straighter despite the pain. “What? In my sleep?” Patrick nodded, his eyes sparkling with mirth. “Oh yeah, you were talking in your sleep, Plankton; you’re like, 'Krabby Patty...Chum...Karen...Patrick...Sponge Bob...' It was like listening to a sea creature's lullaby!" He tried to mimic Plankton's slurred speech, which only made him giggle more. Plankton rolled his eye, his cheeks burning with embarrassment. "Very funny, Patrick," he said through gritted teeth. "Now tell me what really happened." Sponge Bob wiped a tear from his eye, his laughter subsiding. "Well, you were pretty out of it, Plankton. But we got you home safe and sound." Plankton's expression grew more serious. "And what did I say in the car? Because I’d remember…" Patrick's grin grew wider. "Oh, you don't remember? You were asking for Krabby Patties like you hadn't eaten in weeks!" Sponge Bob couldn't hold back his laughter anymore. "And you kept saying 'chum' over and over again, like it was the password to some secret treasure!" Plankton's eye widened. "No?" But Patrick had to prove Plankton's sleep-talking escapade. “I’ve a group selfie to prove it!” Patrick's laughter was contagious, and even Sponge Bob couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Plankton's dazed expression. Plankton's sleep-addled face, his mouth moving in a slurred chant of "Krabby Patty...chum...chum...chum..." He talked in his sleep. Patrick's laughter grew louder, pointing out Plankton's random hand gestures and the occasional snort that punctuated his words. "You're even drooling!" he exclaimed. Sponge Bob's laughter grew quiet, feeling a twinge of pity for Plankton's embarrassment. "Patrick, maybe we should calm down," he suggested gently. But Patrick was having the time of his life. "Come on, Plankton," he said. "You've got to admit, this is gold!" Sponge Bob's chuckles grew quieter as he watched Plankton's face contorts in embarrassment. "Patrick, we should give him a break." But Patrick was too far gone, his laughter bouncing off the walls of the Chum Bucket's bedroom. "No, no, this is the best part!" Plankton's muffled voice, his slurred words about Krabby Patties and chum sounding even more ridiculous. "Alright, alright," Plankton groaned, his face reddening. "I get it, I talked in my sleep. I don't need to hear the evidence." Patrick, still chuckling, put his phone away. "Sorry, buddy. It's just too good not to share." Plankton's cheeks were now a deep shade of red, his antennae drooping slightly. "Could you two at least get me something to eat?" he asked, his voice a mix of annoyance and defeat. Sponge Bob nodded, eager to change the subject. "Of course, Plankton. What would you like?" "Just...chum," Plankton mumbled, his face still flushed with embarrassment. Patrick's laughter grew louder. "Oh, come on, Plankton. You can't be serious right now!" He pretended to snore loudly, then added in a pitched voice, "Krabby Patty! Krabby Patty!" Sponge Bob couldn't help but chuckle. "Patrick, maybe we should—" But Patrick was in full jesting mode, his voice rising in pitch to mimic Plankton's. "Krabby Patty...chum...Krabby Patty...chum..." Plankton's blush deepened, his eye watering with a mix of embarrassment and pain. "I said, stop it!" he yelled, his voice cracking. Sponge Bob's smile faded as he saw the hurt in his friend's eye. "Patrick, that's enough," he said firmly. "Oh, come on, Plankton," he said, trying to sound casual. But Plankton was not amused. "I said stop!" His voice grew stronger, a rare show of emotion from the usually stoic villain. The room fell silent. Tears welled up in his eye, threatening to spill over. "Why are you laughing at me?" he choked out, his voice cracking. "All you can do is mock me?" Sponge Bob's laughter died in his throat, his expression turning to one of concern. "Plankton, we weren't—" But Plankton cut him off, his voice trembling. "I know you think I'm just a joke, but I'm not!" He couldn't hold it in anymore, and a single tear rolled down his cheek. Sponge Bob's eyes widened in shock. He had never seen Plankton so vulnerable before. "Plankton, we're not laughing at you," he said softly, reaching for his friend's hand. "We're just happy you're okay." But Plankton's grip was firm, jerking away. "No, you're not!" he sobbed. "You think I'm a joke, that everything I do is for your amusement!" His voice grew louder, echoing in the small room. "You think because I'm small and I have one eye that I don't have feelings?" Sponge Bob and Patrick exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of surprise and guilt. They had never seen Plankton like this before, and it was clear that their teasing had gone too far. "Plankton, sorry," Sponge Bob said sincerely, his voice full of emotion. "We didn't mean to make you feel that way. We really do care about you." Patrick looked down at his feet, his cheeks a shade of pink. "Yeah, man, we're just happy you're okay." Plankton's sniffles grew louder, and he turned away from them, hiding his face in the pillow. "I'm not a joke," he mumbled, his voice muffled by the fabric. "I'm not just some...some...someone to laugh at." Sponge Bob's heart clenched at the pain in Plankton's voice. He knew his friend had feelings just like everyone else, but sometimes, in the heat of the moment, it was easy to forget. "We know, Plankton," he said gently. "I’m really sorry." Patrick nodded in agreement, his own face a picture of remorse. "We didn't mean to upset you," he added, his voice much softer than before. "We just wanted to keep things light." Sponge Bob reached over and patted Plankton's shoulder. "We know you're not just a joke," he said. "You're our friend, and we care about you. But you're right, Plankton. We shouldn't have laughed. We just wanted to keep your spirits up." Plankton's sniffling slowed, his shoulders relaxing slightly. "It's ok," he murmured. "I know you meant well Sponge Bob." Patrick shifted uncomfortably, his usual jovial demeanor replaced by an awkward silence. "Look, Plankton," he said, his voice sincere. "I just thought it was funny, you know?" But Plankton's eye was still red with unshed tears, and his grip on the pillow was tight. "It's not funny, Patrick," he said, his voice trembling. "I'm not some sort of circus act for you to laugh at." Patrick's smile disappeared, and he looked at Plankton with a mix of surprise and guilt. "Hey, buddy, I didn't mean it like that," he said, his voice low and sincere. "I just thought it was weird, you know, the stuff you say when you're out of it." But Plankton's anger was not so easily diffused. "Weird?!" he spat, his voice rising. "You think weird?” Sponge Bob's face fell, realizing their joking had hit a nerve. "Patrick, maybe you should apologize," he suggested quietly. Patrick nodded, his smile fading. "Yeah, ok," he mumbled, stepping closer to the bed. "Plankton, man. I didn't mean to make you feel like that." But Plankton was not in a forgiving mood. "Don't you dare call me 'buddy' or 'man'!" he yelled, his tiny fist pounding the bed. "You think you can just come in here and laugh at me?!" Patrick took a step back, his eyes wide with shock. "Plankton, I—" But Plankton wasn't finished. "I've had enough!" he yelled, his voice echoing in the small room. "I'm not your entertainment! I'm not some pathetic excuse for a laugh!" His eye blazed with fury, and his tiny body trembled with the intensity of his emotions. Patrick looked taken aback, his smile fading as he realized the depth of Plankton's hurt. "Plankton, I—" But Plankton's anger was a wave that couldn't be held back. "You think my pain is a joke?" he yelled, his voice echoing off the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. "You think because I'm small and I've only got one eye, I don't feel anything?" Patrick's reaching to him, hand touching on his. "Plankton, no, I didn't mean—" But Plankton jerked, pushing him away, his eye flashing with anger. "Don't touch me!" he spat. "You don't get to act like you care now!" Patrick's hand hovered in the air, looking hurt. "But, Plankton, I do care," he said, his voice small. "I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." Plankton turned away, his antennae drooping. "Just go," he said, his voice muffled by the tears. "Patrick, just leave me alone." "Plankton," he began, his voice thick with regret. "I'm sorry, okay?" Plankton's body was tense, his antennae quivering. Patrick took another step closer, his eyes sincere. "I just want to give you a hug, buddy," he said, his voice soft. "To show you that I'm sorry." Plankton's eye grew wide with shock. "What?" he squeaked, his body stiffening. "No, no, no, no, no!" Patrick paused, his arms hovering awkwardly in the air. "It's okay, Plankton," he said, his voice gentle. "It's just a hug." Sponge Bob watched the scene unfold, his heart heavy with the weight of the unspoken words hanging in the air. He knew that Plankton didn't often show his vulnerable side, and the sight of his tiny, usually stoic friend so upset was difficult to bear. Patrick, his expression earnest, took another step closer to the bed. His arms remained outstretched, his fingers curling slightly as he reached for Plankton. "Come on, buddy," he said, his voice thick with emotion. "Let me give you a hug. It'll make you feel better." Plankton's eye grew even wider, his body tensing like a bowstring ready to snap. "Don't you dare," he hissed, his voice shaking with anger and embarrassment. But Patrick was unfazed. He took another step closer, his arms still outstretched. "Come on, Plankton," he said, his voice soft and soothing. "I know you're in pain. Let me help." Plankton stared at him, his tiny body trembling with a mix of anger and fear. "Get away from me," he whispered, his voice shaking. But Patrick didn't listen. He leaned in, his massive arms closing around Plankton's frail form. It was a clumsy embrace, one that could've crushed the tiny plankton if he wasn't careful, but there was a tenderness in his movements that spoke volumes. "It's okay," he murmured, his voice gentle. "You're not weird, and you're not a joke. You're our friend, and we're here for you." Plankton's eye grew even wider, his tiny fists balling up the bedsheets. "Get off me!" he yelled, his voice cracking. "I don't need you!" But Patrick's grip remained firm, his arms enveloping Plankton in a bear hug that was both awkward and surprisingly gentle. "You don't have to be tough all the time," he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. "We're here for you, buddy." Plankton struggled against him, his tiny fists pummeling Patrick's chest. "Let me go!" he yelled, his voice raw with pain and humiliation. "I said I don't want your pity!" Sponge Bob watched, his heart racing. He had never seen Plankton like this before, so open and vulnerable. He knew that his friend was hurting, and he didn't know what to do. "Patrick," he said, his voice a warning. "Maybe we should—" But Patrick was not to be deterred. He squeezed Plankton tighter, his voice a gentle rumble. "You don't have to be strong all the time, Plankton," he said. "We're your friends. Let us help you." Plankton's struggling grew weaker, his sobs becoming more pronounced. "I don't want your help," he choked out. But Patrick held on, his eyes squeezed shut as if willing his words to penetrate Plankton's armor of anger. "You do," he said, his voice firm yet gentle. "Everyone needs help sometimes." Plankton's sobs grew louder, his fists slowly unclenching. He didn't know what to do with this newfound vulnerability, this uncharted territory of friendship. His whole life had been about competition and theft, not about sharing his pain with others. Sponge Bob watched the exchange with a mix of worry and hope. He knew that Plankton's pride was as vast as the ocean, and seeing him break down was almost as rare as spotting a ghost in the daylight. "Patrick, maybe we should—" But Plankton's words were drowned out by his own sobs as he buried his face in the pillow. "Just go!" he yelled, his voice muffled by the fabric. "I don't want your pity!" Patrick's eyes filled with concern, but he knew when to push and when to pull back. He took a step away from the bed, his hands dropping to his sides. "Okay, okay," he said, his voice soothing. "I'll go. But let me…” But Plankton was having none of it. "Get out!" he screamed, his voice echoing off the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. "I don’t need your pity or your friendship!" Patrick took a step back, his expression a mix of confusion and hurt. "But Plankton," he began, his voice tentative. "Out!" Plankton shrieked, his tiny body writhing with rage. His antennae shot up straight, and his eye was wet with tears of frustration. Patrick took a step back, his smile fading into a look of genuine concern. "But, Plankton," he protested, his voice gentle despite the yelling. "I just want to make sure you're ok." "I said leave me alone!" Plankton screamed, his one eye flashing with anger. "You think you can just waltz in here and laugh at my misfortune?" Patrick's expression fell, his arms dropping to his sides as he took a step back. "Plankton, I’m just trying to lighten the mood," he said, his voice laced with confusion. But Plankton was beyond consolation. "Get out!" he shrieked again, his voice cracking with emotion. "I don't need your kind of 'help'!" Sponge Bob looked at Patrick, his eyes filled with sadness. He knew that Plankton's outburst was a result of the pain and embarrassment he was feeling. The room was thick with tension, the silence only broken by Plankton's hiccupped sobs. Patrick's face fell, his usual jovial expression replaced with one of genuine concern. "Plankton," he said, his voice low and gentle. But Plankton was too far gone. "I said leave me alone!" he yelled, his voice echoing through the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. Patrick's smile disappeared, replaced by a look of genuine worry. "But Plankton," he said, his voice tentative. "I’m just trying to help." "Help?" Plankton's voice was filled with disdain. "You think mocking me is helping? It’s not, not ok!" He swiped at his tears with his arm, his anger palpable. "Get out!" Patrick looked at Sponge Bob, his expression a mix of confusion and sadness. "But, Plankton, I just trying to—" "I said, leave me alone!" Plankton's voice was a high-pitched screech that pierced the air, his one eye blazing with a fury that seemed to illuminate the dimly lit room. Patrick looked at him, his expression a mix of surprise and concern. "But Sponge Bob, I just wanted to—" Sponge Bob put a hand on his shoulder, his gaze firm. "I know, Patrick," he said. "But I think Plankton needs some space right now." Patrick looked at Plankton, his eyes filled with apology, and then back at Sponge Bob. With a heavy sigh, he nodded. "Okay," he said, his voice subdued. "I'll go. But, Sponge Bob, tell him I'm sorry." Sponge Bob nodded solemnly. "I will, Patrick," he said, his gaze never leaving Plankton's trembling form. Patrick gave a sad nod and turned to leave, his footsteps heavy on the metal floor. As the door clicked shut behind him, Plankton's sobs grew quieter, and the room was once again filled with an awkward silence. Sponge Bob approached the bed, his heart aching for his friend. He knew that Plankton's outburst was not directed at him, but rather at the pain and embarrassment he was feeling. He sat down gently beside the trembling form, his eyes filled with empathy. "Plankton," he said softly, placing a comforting hand on Plankton's bed. "I know you're upset, but we really do care about you." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his body still shaking with the aftermath of his outburst. He didn't look up from the pillow, but his grip on the bedsheets loosened slightly. "I know it's tough," he said, his voice gentle. Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his body still shaking with the aftermath of his outburst. But Sponge Bob's words resonated with him, cutting through the haze of anger and embarrassment. He took a deep breath, his chest heaving with the effort of containing his emotions. "I don't want anyone else here," he murmured, his voice muffled by the pillow. "Just you, and Karen." Sponge Bob's grip on his shoulder tightened slightly, his heart swelling with affection for his troubled friend. "Okay, Plankton," he said softly. "It's just you and me." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his tiny body gradually relaxing under the warmth of Sponge Bob's touch. He knew he could trust Sponge Bob, that his friend's intentions were always pure. Despite their many differences and the occasional misunderstanding, Sponge Bob had always been there for him. Sponge Bob gently rubbed Plankton's back, his movements slow and soothing. "It's okay, Plankton," he murmured. "I'm here for you." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his breathing evening out as he clutched the pillow to his chest. "I'm sorry," he whispered, his voice barely audible. "I didn't mean to snap at you." Sponge Bob leaned in closer, his voice filled with warmth. "Don't worry about it, Plankton," he said. "We all have our moments." Plankton took another shaky breath, his body slowly calming down. "Thanks, Sponge Bob," he murmured, his voice still thick with emotion. Sponge Bob nodded, his hand still rubbing circles on Plankton's back. "It's okay," he said. "We all get overwhelmed sometimes." Plankton's antennae twitched, and he looked up at Sponge Bob with his one, watery eye. Sponge Bob nodded solemnly. "Patrick can be a little clueless sometimes, but he's got a good heart." Plankton's antennae drooped slightly. "I know," he said, his voice still shaking. Sponge Bob gave him a small, comforting smile. "I can talk to him, but only if you want me to," he said. "Make sure he knows not to laugh about it again." Plankton nodded, his tiny frame still trembling with emotion. "Thank you, Sponge Bob," he whispered. Sponge Bob's smile grew a bit, his eyes filled with understanding. "Of course, Plankton," he said. "That's what friends are for."Plankton had an accident and needed surgery on his leg. SpongeBob and Patrick decided to pay him a. Their friend lay in the hospital bed, anesthetized, snoring softly. "Thank you," Karen said, her digital voice wavering. "We appreciate it. They had to reset the bone and sew it back together. He won't feel anything now, but once the anesthesia wears off, he'll be in some pain. Your support means a lot to us.” Patrick leaned back, his gaze still locked on Plankton. "How long does he have to stay asleep?" he asked. "Awhile," she said. "It's important for him to rest and recover. Plankton might be a bit...overwhelmed when he wakes up. He might not be able to respond right now but it's the thought that counts." "What's that?" he pointed at the intravenous drip attached to Plankton's arm. "That's the anesthesia, what keeps him asleep during the surgery so he doesn't feel any pain." Patrick's eyes grew wide with wonder. "What's that like?" "Well, it's like being in a deep sleep," she began, "you don't feel anything, and when you wake up, it's like you never left your bed." His chest rises and falls with each gentle snore, a sound that echoes faintly in the quiet room. "Karen, why is he snoring?" "It's his body's way of breathing while asleep. He’s in a deep sleep." The lead doctor came. "We're going to start bringing him out of it now. He'll be coming out of anesthesia soon." Eventually Plankton's eye fluttered open, looking up at them with a glazed expression before his pupil focused. "Wha...where...what happened?" he stuttered, his voice groggy. "Why does everything feel...so...floaty?" he asked, his voice trailing off as he tried to lift his head., and it flopped back down onto the pillow. "Whoa, ship's a-rockin'!" he exclaimed. "Weeeee!" he giggled. "A Krabby Patty...no, a Krabby Patty...no, wait, a Krabby...a Krabby...a Krabby..." His words trailed off into nonsense, and he started to giggle uncontrollably. "He'll be fine, just let him talk it out." "I need...I need...a...a...Krabby...P...P...Patty!" He giggled again, his mind still a bit foggy. "Look, friends! Look at me go!" The doctor and nurse entered the room, checking Plankton's vitals and smiling at his slurred words. "He's coming out of it normally," the doctor assured them. "Just keep talking to him, it'll help him come back to reality." SpongeBob and Patrick exchanged glances. "Krabby Patty, huh?" Sponge Bob said, trying to lighten the mood. "Well, I'm sure we can find you one of those once you're feeling better." Plankton giggled again, his eye drifted to the side. "But for now, let's just focus on getting you well, okay?" The doctor nodded. "He'll be in and out of consciousness for a bit. It's perfectly normal." Patrick leaned in closer to Plankton. "You hear that, Plankton? We're here for you, buddy.” He hands him some water. "Ahh," he sighed, his eyes fluttering shut again. "Krabby...Patty...water...good." “You just rest up, and we'll grab you a Krabby Patty when you're all fixed." Plankton's giggles turned into snores again, his eyelid drooping closed. The doctor chuckled. "It's the medication. He'll be in and out like this for a little while. Just keep talking to him, it'll help keep him grounded." The door to the hospital room creaked open, and Mr. Krabs poked his head in, looking around suspiciously. "Sponge Bob! Patrick!" he bellowed. Mr. Krabs' eyes narrowed as he took in the sight of Plankton in the hospital bed. "Heard about the accident," he said gruffly. "Thought I'd check on the little scamp." Plankton's eye snapped open again, his expression shifting from groggy to instantly alert. "Krabs!" he hissed. "What are you doing?" Mr. Krabs waved a dismissive claw. "Just makin' sure my number one competitor is out of commission," he said with a smirk. "But it seems you're in good company." Sponge Bob stepped forward, his smile firmly in place. "Mr. Krabs, we're just here to support Plankton. He's had a rough day." Mr. Krabs' smirk grew. "Ah, yes, the great Plankton, laid low by his own incompetence. Couldn't even steal a Krabby Patty without breaking a leg." The room grew tense as Plankton's face reddened, his tiny fists balling up the hospital sheets. "It wasn't like that, Krabs," he protested, his voice strained. "It was an accident!" But Mr. Krabs was relentless. "Always an accident with you, isn't it?" He chuckled, his tone mocking. "You're as clumsy as you are small." Sponge Bob took a deep breath, his heart swelling with hope. "Mr. Krabs, maybe now's not the best time to tease him. Plankton's really hurting." The tension in the room grew thicker than a Kelp Shake. Plankton's tiny frame quivered with indignation. The anesthesia, however, was playing tricks on his emotions. He could feel the tears welling up in his eye, and before he knew it, they were spilling over, tracing a salty path down his cheeks. "Ah Don't listen to him, Plankton," Sponge Bob whispered, his own eyes growing misty. "You're not incompetent. It was just an accident." Karen's screen flickered with concern. "Mr. Krabs, please. He's not well." "I don't need your pity, Krabs!" he spat out, his voice filled with embarrassment. Karen's screen flickered again. "Mr. Krabs, he needs space. He'll be in and out of it for a bit longer, but perhaps he'd appreciate the visit when fully conscious." Mr. Krabs then left. Plankton's breathing grew even, and his eye began to droop. "I think he's falling asleep," Patrick whispers. "Alright, he's all set to go home. Just remember, he'll need plenty of rest and care over the next few weeks. No strenuous activity, and keep that leg elevated." They nodded solemnly, eager to get their friend back to his safe haven, the Chum Bucket. Carefully, they helped him into a wheelchair, his sleepy head lolling onto Sponge Bob's shoulder. "Mmm, Krabby Patty," he murmured, his mumbled voice trailing off into a snore. Patrick held the car door open as Sponge Bob gently maneuvered Plankton out of the chair, trying not to jostle him too much. He snored quietly, his body still feeling the after effects of the anesthesia. They buckled him into the back seat, his head lolling to the side as SpongeBob sat by him. The car's gentle vibrations and the soft hum of the engine lulled Plankton further into his anesthesia-induced slumber. His snores grew louder, echoing through the car's cabin. Sponge Bob watched him, his heart aching at the sight of his friend in pain. He reached over and patted his arm reassuringly. "It's okay, Plankton," he whispered. "You're going to be okay." The drive to the Chum Bucket was a quiet one, punctuated only by Plankton's intermittent snoring and the occasional burst of slurred words. "Karen...chum...water... Krabby Patty...friend," he would murmur, his voice a gentle reminder of the person behind the villainous exterior. "Chum...Karen...Krabs...Sponge...Bob...Patrick...Krabby Patty...Karen...chum...chum...chum..." Sponge Bob and Patrick shared a look in the rearview mirror, their expressions a mix of concern and amusement. "It's like he's having a conversation with himself," Patrick whispered, trying not to laugh. "Must be the anesthesia," Sponge Bob said, his voice low so as not to disturb Plankton. "He'll probably remember none of it when he wakes up." Once they arrived at the Chum Bucket, they carefully transferred Plankton to his bed, his snores becoming less frequent and more rhythmic as he slipped into a deeper sleep. They left him with a glass of water and a bowl of chum for when he awoke, feeling a bit of relief knowing he was home and safe. Hours later, Plankton's snoring finally ceased, and he blinked his eye open, feeling a dull ache in his leg. The room was dimly lit, and he squinted to see Sponge Bob and Patrick sitting by his bed in his bedroom. "What...what happened?" he asked, his voice slurred. Sponge Bob gave him a gentle smile. "Yes," Patrick said, his voice filled with the excitement of someone who'd just watched a really good movie. "You were talking in your sleep, and you kept asking for Krabby Patties!" Plankton's frown deepened as he tried to sit up, only to wince in pain. "Krabby Patties?" “You talked about Krabby Patties like they were the holy grail, and you kept calling for Karen. It was like you were having the weirdest, most amazing dream ever!" But Patrick was on a roll. "And the way your one arm kept flailing around, like you were trying to swat a jellyfish!" He couldn't hold in his laughter any longer, and it echoed through the room, making Plankton's cheeks burn even hotter. Sponge Bob's smile grew wider, his laughter bubbling up. "You know, Patrick might be onto something. You really were like a tiny, snoring sea creature in there!" Patrick couldn't contain himself. "And when Mr. Krabs came in, oh boy!" He leaned in closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. "You started crying like a baby seagull begging for food!" Plankton's tiny fists clenched the bedsheets, his embarrassment morphing into anger. "That's not funny, Patrick." he snapped, his voice sharp. But Patrick was undeterred. "Oh, come on, Plankton! You have to admit, it was pretty hilarious!" He mimicked Plankton's snoring, which only made Sponge Bob laugh harder. Plankton glared at him, his one good eye narrowing. "You think this is funny?" he grumbled. "I could've been in serious trouble, and all you can do is laugh about it!" Sponge Bob's laughter subsided, his expression turning solemn. "We're not laughing at you, Plankton," he said, placing a comforting hand on Plankton's shoulder. "We're just happy you're okay. And, well, you have to admit, it was a little bit funny." Plankton's anger dissipated, and he let out a sigh. "I guess I can see the humor in it," he conceded, his voice still a bit gruff. "But I'm serious, I don't want anyone else to know about this." "Don't worry, Plankton," Sponge Bob assured him. "Your Krabby Patty-filled dreams are safe with us." “Dreams? What do you mean, and how would you know if I was dreaming?” Patrick couldn’t resist. “Oh, you were dreaming alright, buddy. You were in Krabby Patty heaven, floating on a cloud made of chum!” Plankton rolled his eye, feeling a bit more like himself. “I was not dreaming of Krabby Patties, you oaf!” Sponge Bob giggled. “But you kept asking for them, Plankton in your sleep!” Plankton huffed, trying to sit up straighter despite the pain. “What? In my sleep?” Patrick nodded, his eyes sparkling with mirth. “Oh yeah, you were talking in your sleep, Plankton; you’re like, 'Krabby Patty...Chum...Karen...Patrick...Sponge Bob...' It was like listening to a sea creature's lullaby!" He tried to mimic Plankton's slurred speech, which only made him giggle more. Plankton rolled his eye, his cheeks burning with embarrassment. "Very funny, Patrick," he said through gritted teeth. "Now tell me what really happened." Sponge Bob wiped a tear from his eye, his laughter subsiding. "Well, you were pretty out of it, Plankton. But we got you home safe and sound." Plankton's expression grew more serious. "And what did I say in the car? Because I’d remember…" Patrick's grin grew wider. "Oh, you don't remember? You were asking for Krabby Patties like you hadn't eaten in weeks!" Sponge Bob couldn't hold back his laughter anymore. "And you kept saying 'chum' over and over again, like it was the password to some secret treasure!" Plankton's eye widened. "No?" But Patrick had to prove Plankton's sleep-talking escapade. “I’ve a group selfie to prove it!” Patrick's laughter was contagious, and even Sponge Bob couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Plankton's dazed expression. Plankton's sleep-addled face, his mouth moving in a slurred chant of "Krabby Patty...chum...chum...chum..." He talked in his sleep. Patrick's laughter grew louder, pointing out Plankton's random hand gestures and the occasional snort that punctuated his words. "You're even drooling!" he exclaimed. Sponge Bob's laughter grew quiet, feeling a twinge of pity for Plankton's embarrassment. "Patrick, maybe we should calm down," he suggested gently. But Patrick was having the time of his life. "Come on, Plankton," he said. "You've got to admit, this is gold!" Sponge Bob's chuckles grew quieter as he watched Plankton's face contorts in embarrassment. "Patrick, we should give him a break." But Patrick was too far gone, his laughter bouncing off the walls of the Chum Bucket's bedroom. "No, no, this is the best part!" Plankton's muffled voice, his slurred words about Krabby Patties and chum sounding even more ridiculous. "Alright, alright," Plankton groaned, his face reddening. "I get it, I talked in my sleep. I don't need to hear the evidence." Patrick, still chuckling, put his phone away. "Sorry, buddy. It's just too good not to share." Plankton's cheeks were now a deep shade of red, his antennae drooping slightly. "Could you two at least get me something to eat?" he asked, his voice a mix of annoyance and defeat. Sponge Bob nodded, eager to change the subject. "Of course, Plankton. What would you like?" "Just...chum," Plankton mumbled, his face still flushed with embarrassment. Patrick's laughter grew louder. "Oh, come on, Plankton. You can't be serious right now!" He pretended to snore loudly, then added in a pitched voice, "Krabby Patty! Krabby Patty!" Sponge Bob couldn't help but chuckle. "Patrick, maybe we should—" But Patrick was in full jesting mode, his voice rising in pitch to mimic Plankton's. "Krabby Patty...chum...Krabby Patty...chum..." Plankton's blush deepened, his eye watering with a mix of embarrassment and pain. "I said, stop it!" he yelled, his voice cracking. Sponge Bob's smile faded as he saw the hurt in his friend's eye. "Patrick, that's enough," he said firmly. "Oh, come on, Plankton," he said, trying to sound casual. But Plankton was not amused. "I said stop!" His voice grew stronger, a rare show of emotion from the usually stoic villain. The room fell silent. Tears welled up in his eye, threatening to spill over. "Why are you laughing at me?" he choked out, his voice cracking. "All you can do is mock me?" Sponge Bob's laughter died in his throat, his expression turning to one of concern. "Plankton, we weren't—" But Plankton cut him off, his voice trembling. "I know you think I'm just a joke, but I'm not!" He couldn't hold it in anymore, and a single tear rolled down his cheek. Sponge Bob's eyes widened in shock. He had never seen Plankton so vulnerable before. "Plankton, we're not laughing at you," he said softly, reaching for his friend's hand. "We're just happy you're okay." But Plankton's grip was firm, jerking away. "No, you're not!" he sobbed. "You think I'm a joke, that everything I do is for your amusement!" His voice grew louder, echoing in the small room. "You think because I'm small and I have one eye that I don't have feelings?" Sponge Bob and Patrick exchanged glances, their expressions a mix of surprise and guilt. They had never seen Plankton like this before, and it was clear that their teasing had gone too far. "Plankton, sorry," Sponge Bob said sincerely, his voice full of emotion. "We didn't mean to make you feel that way. We really do care about you." Patrick looked down at his feet, his cheeks a shade of pink. "Yeah, man, we're just happy you're okay." Plankton's sniffles grew louder, and he turned away from them, hiding his face in the pillow. "I'm not a joke," he mumbled, his voice muffled by the fabric. "I'm not just some...some...someone to laugh at." Sponge Bob's heart clenched at the pain in Plankton's voice. He knew his friend had feelings just like everyone else, but sometimes, in the heat of the moment, it was easy to forget. "We know, Plankton," he said gently. "I’m really sorry." Patrick nodded in agreement, his own face a picture of remorse. "We didn't mean to upset you," he added, his voice much softer than before. "We just wanted to keep things light." Sponge Bob reached over and patted Plankton's shoulder. "We know you're not just a joke," he said. "You're our friend, and we care about you. But you're right, Plankton. We shouldn't have laughed. We just wanted to keep your spirits up." Plankton's sniffling slowed, his shoulders relaxing slightly. "It's ok," he murmured. "I know you meant well Sponge Bob." Patrick shifted uncomfortably, his usual jovial demeanor replaced by an awkward silence. "Look, Plankton," he said, his voice sincere. "I just thought it was funny, you know?" But Plankton's eye was still red with unshed tears, and his grip on the pillow was tight. "It's not funny, Patrick," he said, his voice trembling. "I'm not some sort of circus act for you to laugh at." Patrick's smile disappeared, and he looked at Plankton with a mix of surprise and guilt. "Hey, buddy, I didn't mean it like that," he said, his voice low and sincere. "I just thought it was weird, you know, the stuff you say when you're out of it." But Plankton's anger was not so easily diffused. "Weird?!" he spat, his voice rising. "You think weird?” Sponge Bob's face fell, realizing their joking had hit a nerve. "Patrick, maybe you should apologize," he suggested quietly. Patrick nodded, his smile fading. "Yeah, ok," he mumbled, stepping closer to the bed. "Plankton, man. I didn't mean to make you feel like that." But Plankton was not in a forgiving mood. "Don't you dare call me 'buddy' or 'man'!" he yelled, his tiny fist pounding the bed. "You think you can just come in here and laugh at me?!" Patrick took a step back, his eyes wide with shock. "Plankton, I—" But Plankton wasn't finished. "I've had enough!" he yelled, his voice echoing in the small room. "I'm not your entertainment! I'm not some pathetic excuse for a laugh!" His eye blazed with fury, and his tiny body trembled with the intensity of his emotions. Patrick looked taken aback, his smile fading as he realized the depth of Plankton's hurt. "Plankton, I—" But Plankton's anger was a wave that couldn't be held back. "You think my pain is a joke?" he yelled, his voice echoing off the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. "You think because I'm small and I've only got one eye, I don't feel anything?" Patrick's reaching to him, hand touching on his. "Plankton, no, I didn't mean—" But Plankton jerked, pushing him away, his eye flashing with anger. "Don't touch me!" he spat. "You don't get to act like you care now!" Patrick's hand hovered in the air, looking hurt. "But, Plankton, I do care," he said, his voice small. "I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." Plankton turned away, his antennae drooping. "Just go," he said, his voice muffled by the tears. "Patrick, just leave me alone." "Plankton," he began, his voice thick with regret. "I'm sorry, okay?" Plankton's body was tense, his antennae quivering. Patrick took another step closer, his eyes sincere. "I just want to give you a hug, buddy," he said, his voice soft. "To show you that I'm sorry." Plankton's eye grew wide with shock. "What?" he squeaked, his body stiffening. "No, no, no, no, no!" Patrick paused, his arms hovering awkwardly in the air. "It's okay, Plankton," he said, his voice gentle. "It's just a hug." Sponge Bob watched the scene unfold, his heart heavy with the weight of the unspoken words hanging in the air. He knew that Plankton didn't often show his vulnerable side, and the sight of his tiny, usually stoic friend so upset was difficult to bear. Patrick, his expression earnest, took another step closer to the bed. His arms remained outstretched, his fingers curling slightly as he reached for Plankton. "Come on, buddy," he said, his voice thick with emotion. "Let me give you a hug. It'll make you feel better." Plankton's eye grew even wider, his body tensing like a bowstring ready to snap. "Don't you dare," he hissed, his voice shaking with anger and embarrassment. But Patrick was unfazed. He took another step closer, his arms still outstretched. "Come on, Plankton," he said, his voice soft and soothing. "I know you're in pain. Let me help." Plankton stared at him, his tiny body trembling with a mix of anger and fear. "Get away from me," he whispered, his voice shaking. But Patrick didn't listen. He leaned in, his massive arms closing around Plankton's frail form. It was a clumsy embrace, one that could've crushed the tiny plankton if he wasn't careful, but there was a tenderness in his movements that spoke volumes. "It's okay," he murmured, his voice gentle. "You're not weird, and you're not a joke. You're our friend, and we're here for you." Plankton's eye grew even wider, his tiny fists balling up the bedsheets. "Get off me!" he yelled, his voice cracking. "I don't need you!" But Patrick's grip remained firm, his arms enveloping Plankton in a bear hug that was both awkward and surprisingly gentle. "You don't have to be tough all the time," he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. "We're here for you, buddy." Plankton struggled against him, his tiny fists pummeling Patrick's chest. "Let me go!" he yelled, his voice raw with pain and humiliation. "I said I don't want your pity!" Sponge Bob watched, his heart racing. He had never seen Plankton like this before, so open and vulnerable. He knew that his friend was hurting, and he didn't know what to do. "Patrick," he said, his voice a warning. "Maybe we should—" But Patrick was not to be deterred. He squeezed Plankton tighter, his voice a gentle rumble. "You don't have to be strong all the time, Plankton," he said. "We're your friends. Let us help you." Plankton's struggling grew weaker, his sobs becoming more pronounced. "I don't want your help," he choked out. But Patrick held on, his eyes squeezed shut as if willing his words to penetrate Plankton's armor of anger. "You do," he said, his voice firm yet gentle. "Everyone needs help sometimes." Plankton's sobs grew louder, his fists slowly unclenching. He didn't know what to do with this newfound vulnerability, this uncharted territory of friendship. His whole life had been about competition and theft, not about sharing his pain with others. Sponge Bob watched the exchange with a mix of worry and hope. He knew that Plankton's pride was as vast as the ocean, and seeing him break down was almost as rare as spotting a ghost in the daylight. "Patrick, maybe we should—" But Plankton's words were drowned out by his own sobs as he buried his face in the pillow. "Just go!" he yelled, his voice muffled by the fabric. "I don't want your pity!" Patrick's eyes filled with concern, but he knew when to push and when to pull back. He took a step away from the bed, his hands dropping to his sides. "Okay, okay," he said, his voice soothing. "I'll go. But let me…” But Plankton was having none of it. "Get out!" he screamed, his voice echoing off the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. "I don’t need your pity or your friendship!" Patrick took a step back, his expression a mix of confusion and hurt. "But Plankton," he began, his voice tentative. "Out!" Plankton shrieked, his tiny body writhing with rage. His antennae shot up straight, and his eye was wet with tears of frustration. Patrick took a step back, his smile fading into a look of genuine concern. "But, Plankton," he protested, his voice gentle despite the yelling. "I just want to make sure you're ok." "I said leave me alone!" Plankton screamed, his one eye flashing with anger. "You think you can just waltz in here and laugh at my misfortune?" Patrick's expression fell, his arms dropping to his sides as he took a step back. "Plankton, I’m just trying to lighten the mood," he said, his voice laced with confusion. But Plankton was beyond consolation. "Get out!" he shrieked again, his voice cracking with emotion. "I don't need your kind of 'help'!" Sponge Bob looked at Patrick, his eyes filled with sadness. He knew that Plankton's outburst was a result of the pain and embarrassment he was feeling. The room was thick with tension, the silence only broken by Plankton's hiccupped sobs. Patrick's face fell, his usual jovial expression replaced with one of genuine concern. "Plankton," he said, his voice low and gentle. But Plankton was too far gone. "I said leave me alone!" he yelled, his voice echoing through the metal walls of the Chum Bucket. Patrick's smile disappeared, replaced by a look of genuine worry. "But Plankton," he said, his voice tentative. "I’m just trying to help." "Help?" Plankton's voice was filled with disdain. "You think mocking me is helping? It’s not, not ok!" He swiped at his tears with his arm, his anger palpable. "Get out!" Patrick looked at Sponge Bob, his expression a mix of confusion and sadness. "But, Plankton, I just trying to—" "I said, leave me alone!" Plankton's voice was a high-pitched screech that pierced the air, his one eye blazing with a fury that seemed to illuminate the dimly lit room. Patrick looked at him, his expression a mix of surprise and concern. "But Sponge Bob, I just wanted to—" Sponge Bob put a hand on his shoulder, his gaze firm. "I know, Patrick," he said. "But I think Plankton needs some space right now." Patrick looked at Plankton, his eyes filled with apology, and then back at Sponge Bob. With a heavy sigh, he nodded. "Okay," he said, his voice subdued. "I'll go. But, Sponge Bob, tell him I'm sorry." Sponge Bob nodded solemnly. "I will, Patrick," he said, his gaze never leaving Plankton's trembling form. Patrick gave a sad nod and turned to leave, his footsteps heavy on the metal floor. As the door clicked shut behind him, Plankton's sobs grew quieter, and the room was once again filled with an awkward silence. Sponge Bob approached the bed, his heart aching for his friend. He knew that Plankton's outburst was not directed at him, but rather at the pain and embarrassment he was feeling. He sat down gently beside the trembling form, his eyes filled with empathy. "Plankton," he said softly, placing a comforting hand on Plankton's bed. "I know you're upset, but we really do care about you." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his body still shaking with the aftermath of his outburst. He didn't look up from the pillow, but his grip on the bedsheets loosened slightly. "I know it's tough," he said, his voice gentle. Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his body still shaking with the aftermath of his outburst. But Sponge Bob's words resonated with him, cutting through the haze of anger and embarrassment. He took a deep breath, his chest heaving with the effort of containing his emotions. "I don't want anyone else here," he murmured, his voice muffled by the pillow. "Just you, and Karen." Sponge Bob's grip on his shoulder tightened slightly, his heart swelling with affection for his troubled friend. "Okay, Plankton," he said softly. "It's just you and me." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his tiny body gradually relaxing under the warmth of Sponge Bob's touch. He knew he could trust Sponge Bob, that his friend's intentions were always pure. Despite their many differences and the occasional misunderstanding, Sponge Bob had always been there for him. Sponge Bob gently rubbed Plankton's back, his movements slow and soothing. "It's okay, Plankton," he murmured. "I'm here for you." Plankton's sobs grew quieter, his breathing evening out as he clutched the pillow to his chest. "I'm sorry," he whispered, his voice barely audible. "I didn't mean to snap at you." Sponge Bob leaned in closer, his voice filled with warmth. "Don't worry about it, Plankton," he said. "We all have our moments." Plankton took another shaky breath, his body slowly calming down. "Thanks, Sponge Bob," he murmured, his voice still thick with emotion. Sponge Bob nodded, his hand still rubbing circles on Plankton's back. "It's okay," he said. "We all get overwhelmed sometimes." Plankton's antennae twitched, and he looked up at Sponge Bob with his one, watery eye. Sponge Bob nodded solemnly. "Patrick can be a little clueless sometimes, but he's got a good heart." Plankton's antennae drooped slightly. "I know," he said, his voice still shaking. Sponge Bob gave him a small, comforting smile. "I can talk to him, but only if you want me to," he said. "Make sure he knows not to laugh about it again." Plankton nodded, his tiny frame still trembling with emotion. "Thank you, Sponge Bob," he whispered. Sponge Bob's smile grew a bit, his eyes filled with understanding. "Of course, Plankton," he said. "That's what friends are for."COMPUTER SENSORS They decide to go to the park, a place Plankton finds calming. The sun is shining, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers. Karen has packed a picnic basket filled with Plankton's favorite low-sensory snacks: crunchy celery sticks, creamy peanut butter, and fresh strawberries. As they sit on the blanket, Plankton's tentacles are loose, and he seems relaxed, the warmth of the sun on his skin soothing him. Suddenly, a boisterous laugh pierces the serene ambiance, and Hanna's gaze snaps up. There's Patrick Star, waving his arms around as he recognizes Plankton. "Plankton!" he bellows, his voice echoing across the park like a foghorn. "Dude, what are you doing here?" Plankton's limbs tighten around his body, his eye snapping open wide. The sudden noise sends a shockwave through him, and his pupil constricts as he tries to process the onslaught of sensory information. The smells of the picnic, the feel of the sun on his skin, even the gentle breeze becomes a cacophony of distraction. "Hey, little buddy!" Patrick exclaims, poking at Plankton's back with enthusiasm. With a sharp intake of breath, Plankton's body tenses, coiling into tight spirals. The sudden jab of pain from the unexpected touch sends a jolt through his system, and he turns to face the intrusion, his eye blazing with a rare fury. "Patrick!" he snaps, his voice a harsh whipcrack that slices through the peacefulness of the park. The joyful grin on the starfish's face falters, caught off guard by the anger. Patrick crouched down by Plankton, his eyes wide with surprise. "Whoa, Plankton, what's the deal? Can I not say Hi to you guys?" "Not like that," Plankton snaps, his tentacles tightening around him defensively. "You can't just barge in here and—" Patrick's eyes widen, his star-shaped body shrinking back slightly. "Whoa, Plankton, calm it down. It's just a poke, Plankton," he says, his voice a blend of confusion and defensiveness. "It's an invasion, and you know it." "Getting dramatic, over nothing.." Patrick says, patting Plankton's head. Plankton's tentacles shoot up, slapping Patrick's hand away. "Nothing?!" he snaps, his voice echoing with anger. "You don't get it, do you?" Patrick's smile is forced, his hand retreating. "Chill, Plankton," he says, his voice a wave of dismissal. "I didn't know you were such a...sensitive guy. I didn't mean to ruin your zen moment," he says, his voice a mix of sarcasm and frustration. "You want me to sit around and feel sorry for you? The world doesn't revolve around you, so what do you want us to do?" "I don't want pity," Plankton spits. "I want you to respect me enough to understand that I can't handle certain things. Is that too much to ask?" Patrick's smile is a forced grimace, his star-shaped body tense. "O, I get it," he says, his voice laced with annoyance. "You're a baby who cannot handle. You are never wrong. You just special, you need all this...care. You expect me to believe how great and special you are." Plankton's with rage, his body vibrating like a tuning fork hit by a sledgehammer. "This isn't about me being special," he hisses, his eye narrowed to a slit. "It's about you being an inconsiderate jerk!" Patrick's forced smile slips, revealing a flash of his own irritation. "Okay, okay," he says, his voice a mix of frustration and incredulity. "So, what? We're supposed to tiptoe around you all the time?" "No," Plankton says, his voice tight with anger. "But you could at least ask before you go poking me like I'm some sort of science experiment." Patrick's smile fades, his star-shaped body stiffening. "What's gotten into you?" he asks, his tone incredulous as he jabs Plankton's ribs. "Stop it!" Plankton roars, his tentacles lashing out, slapping at the air around him. "Just stop!" Patrick mocks him, flapping his hands in the air. "Oh stop!" He mimics Plankton. Plankton's limbs coil tightly around him, his voice a serrated edge of anger. "It's not funny, Patrick. It's my life!" Patrick's eyes widen, his star-shaped body recoiling slightly. "Wow, Plankton," he says, his voice a mix of shock and annoyance. "Woe is me! You're really going there?" Plankton's voice a volatile storm of anger. "Don't patronize me," he snaps. "You think because you're big and loud that you can just do whatever you want?" Patrick's grin falters, his star-shaped body wobbling slightly. "I'm just trying to have a good time," he says, his voice a protest. "You're the one making it a big deal." "It is a big deal!" Plankton shoots back, unfurling in agitation. "You don't get to decide what's important to me!" Patrick's eyes widen, his smile dissolving into a scowl. "Fine," he says, his voice a mix of anger and defensiveness. "You boss us around and make us feel bad for you, Plankton. You burden us with your 'needs' because you're entitled. You're the king of the party." Plankton's tentacles quiver with indignation. "I'm not asking for a parade," he says, his voice tight with anger. "I just want you to think before you act." "Think before I act?" he repeats, his voice a sneer. "You're the one who can't handle a little poking fun." "It's not fun for me!" Plankton snaps, his tentacles flailing. "It's painful and disrespectful!" Patrick's star-shaped body stiffens, his smile vanishing like a popped bubble. "Oh disrespectful? We need to stop having fun because only you matter! I'm aware of your claim discomfort because I'm decent unlike you. So, I'm supposed to cater to your every whim?" he challenges, his voice edged with anger. Plankton's in frustration. "You think this is about fun?" he spits out. "This is about respect. You don't get to decide what I can and cannot handle!" Patrick's face turns a darker shade of pink, his eyes narrowed into slits. "Respect?" he echoes, his voice a sneer. "You're the one who's disrespecting us by turning every little thing into a drama festival!" Plankton's tentacles tighten around him, his voice a whip of fury. "Drama festival? This is my life, Patrick!" he shouts, his voice echoing through the park. "I'm not asking for the world to revolve around me. I just want you to be mindful!" "Mindful? I am more mindful! You're the one throwing a fit over a simple poke!" he retorts, his voice rising to match Plankton's intensity. "You're so wrapped up in your own problems that you can't even see that you're ruining everyone else's good time!" He holds Plankton's arms and lets go, causing Plankton to fall back. "This isn't about me!" Plankton shouts, his tentacles flailing as he tries to regain his balance. "It's about you not understanding!" Patrick's smile is a tight line of frustration. "Understanding what? That you're just grumpy and weak?" Plankton's tentacles quiver with rage. "You're not listening," he growls, his voice a bass rumble. "This isn't about being grumpy or weak. It's about respecting my boundaries!" Patrick's star-shaped body looms over him, his voice a thundercloud of disbelief. "Boundaries? You want boundaries?" he scoffs. "You're the one who can't handle a little playful banter!" "You think this is playful? You think poking someone without their consent is okay?" His voice is a volcano ready to erupt, his frustration palpable in the tension that fills the air. Patrick's star-shaped form looms over him, his smile twisted into a sneer. "Oh, so now it's about consent?" he mocks, his voice a knife slicing through the serenity of the park. "You're just overreacting, Plankton." The words hit Plankton like a tidal wave of noise, his tentacles coiling tightly around his body as he struggles to maintain control. The smells of the picnic, the laughter of children playing in the distance, and the rustle of the leaves all crash over him like a sensory tsunami. "Patrick, please," Karen interjects, her voice a gentle stream trying to quench the fire of their argument. "You need to understand that—" "Plankton's Just Too Stupid To Understand!" The words hang in the air, a toxic cloud that seems to thicken the very atmosphere around them. Plankton's tentacles coil in on themselves, his body retreating into a tight ball of anger and pain. His skin feels like it's on fire, each sensation a sharp jab to his already frayed nerves. The smell of the picnic, the sound of the distant laughter, the feeling of the sun on his back—it's all too much. His tentacles quiver, desperate for relief from the assault on his senses. With a gasp, Plankton's eye rolls back, and he collapses onto the picnic blanket, his body going slack. "Plankton!" Karen cries out, her hand shooting out to catch him. Karen feels the weight of his body, the tension in his limbs gone, leaving them limp and lifeless. Hanna's shocked with horror. "Oh no," she whispers, her voice barely audible. Patrick's star-shaped body jerks back, his eyes widening with shock at the sudden change in Plankton. "What did I do?" he asks, his voice a mix of confusion and concern. Karen's eyes flash with a mix of anger and fear as she cradles Plankton's unresponsive form. "You triggered his sensory overload," she says, her voice a tight coil of accusation. "Now look at him." Patrick's smile fades into a grimace, his star-shaped body sagging. "Is he ok?" he asks, his voice a ripple of regret. "You tell me," Karen says, her voice a knife of accusation. "You're the one who didn't think before poking him!" Patrick's star-shaped form deflates, eyes wide with horror. "I didn't know," he stammers. "I didn't mean to—" "You didn't mean to," Karen repeats, her voice a whip of sarcasm. "That's the problem. You didn't mean to, but you did." Patrick's star-shaped body sags further, his smile gone. "What can I do?" he asks, his voice a mix of worry and guilt. Hanna moves closer, her eyes on Plankton's still form. "Give him space," she murmurs, her voice a soft command. She gently strokes Plankton, feeling the tension ease slightly. "And be quiet ." Patrick's eyes dart to her, then back to Plankton, his smile gone. He opens his mouth, then closes it again, finally nodding. He sits back on his haunches, his star-shaped body quivering slightly. "I'm sorry," he says, his voice a small wave of genuine remorse. "I really didn't know." Karen's gaze remains steely as she holds Plankton's limp form. "Well, now you do," she says, her voice a sharp knife slicing through the tension. "And I hope you'll be more considerate next time." Hanna's filled with a mix of anger and concern. She looks at Patrick, her voice a gentle but firm reminder. "This isn't just about Plankton," she says. "It's about all of us being aware of how we affect each other." Patrick's star-shaped body seems to shrink further, his eyes flicking to Plankton, then back to Hanna and Karen. "What do you mean?" he asks, his voice a soft ripple of curiosity. Hanna takes a deep breath, her hand still resting gently on Plankton. "It means that we all have our limits," she says, her voice a gentle guide. "And we need to be aware of those limits, so we don't hurt each other." Patrick's star-shaped body remains still, his eyes searching Hanna's face. "But I didn't mean to," he says, his voice a soft ripple of confusion. "It was just a joke." "It's not about intent," Karen says, her voice a steady stream of patience. "It's about impact. What you find funny can be incredibly distressing for him." Patrick's star-shaped body stiffens, his eyes darting from Karen to the unconscious Plankton and back. "But, I don't know," he repeats, his voice a wave of dawning realization. "I didn't mean to..." "Intention doesn't always equal impact," Hanna says, her voice a gentle reminder. "It's important to understand that everyone experiences the world differently." Patrick's star-shaped body remains still, his smile gone. He looks from Karen's stern expression to Plankton's unresponsive form, his mind racing. He's never seen his friend like this before, and the realization that he might have been the cause of such distress weighs heavily on him. His eyes are wide with curiosity, searching for any sign that Plankton is ok. "What can I do?" he asks, his voice a gentle ripple of concern. "Just sit with us," she says, her voice a whisper of weariness. "And maybe, just maybe, try to understand." "But what's wrong with Plankton?" Patrick asks Karen. "It's like...imagine if someone shone a flashlight directly into your eyes. You'd be overwhelmed, right?" Patrick's star-shaped body sags, the gravity of the situation finally sinking in. "Oh," he says, his voice a small wave of understanding. "I didn't know." "Well, now you do," Karen says, her voice a firm current of resolve. "And it's about time we all start respecting each other's boundaries." With a sigh, she shifts Plankton gently, laying him down on the picnic blanket. "Plankton," she whispers, her voice a soft breeze that carries a hint of urgency. "Come back to us." Karen's filled with a mix of fear and determination as she gently shakes Plankton's shoulder. He remains still, his eye unresponsive. She tries again, a little louder this time. "Plankton, please wake up." Hanna watches her friend in such distress is like a knife twisting in her gut. She's seen Plankton stressed before, but never like this. Karen's voice is a gentle stream of worry, calling Plankton's name over and over again. She lightly taps him, whispering soothing words that are usually reserved for their quiet moments at home. The park around them seems to hold its breath, the laughter of children and the distant bark of a seagull muffled by the gravity of the situation. Patrick, his star-shaped body a silent sentinel, watches with a mix of fear and regret. His eyes dart from Plankton's unresponsive form to Karen's face, his smile long forgotten. "Is he ok?" he asks, his voice a soft ripple of concern. "I don't know," Karen says, her voice tight with worry. She keeps her voice low, not wanting to add to the chaos Plankton's brain is surely experiencing. "This isn't the first time he's had a sensory overload, but it's never been this bad." "What can we do?" Hanna asks, voice is a gentle lilt, a stark contrast to the tension in her body. "We just have to wait," Karen says, her voice a calm lake in a storm. "And keep the environment as low-stimulus as possible." Patrick nods, his star-shaped body still. "Okay," he says, his voice a ripple of understanding. He looks around the park, his eyes searching for any potential triggers that might exacerbate Plankton's condition. Karen continues her gentle ministrations, her voice a soothing lullaby in the quiet of the afternoon. She whispers Plankton's name, her hand a gentle caress. "Come on, sweetie," she murmurs, her voice a soft breeze. "You can do it." But Plankton remains unresponsive. The minutes stretch into an eternity, the sun dipping lower in the sky, casting long shadows across the picnic area. Karen's gentle calls become more urgent, her voice a siren's wail through the quiet afternoon. She tries different tactics—soft whispers, gentle taps, a light stroking of his tentacles—but Plankton doesn't stir. She needs to wake him up, to bring him back to the present before the world overwhelms him even more. With a tremble in her voice, she calls his name louder, her hand shaking as it rests on his. "Plankton, can you hear me?" she asks, her voice a siren's call through the stillness. But Plankton's body remains a taut wire of tension, his tentacles unmoving. The sounds of the park seem to amplify —the rustle of leaves, the distant squawk of a seagull, the murmur of nearby conversations—each one a potential trigger to send him further into the abyss of his overload. Karen's searching for anything familiar that might help anchor him to reality. "Plankton," she whispers, her voice a gentle breeze. "Look at this." Hanna watches. "May I?" she asks, her voice a whisper. Karen nods, never leaving Plankton's unresponsive form. "Please," she says, her voice a desperate plea. Hanna reaches out tentatively, her hand hovering over Plankton's. She takes a deep breath, then gently squeezes it. "Plankton," she says, her voice a soft melody. "It's Hanna. We're here for you." Patrick watches, his star-shaped body a tense statue. He's never seen his friend like this, and the sight of Plankton's distress is like a punch to the gut. He fidgets, unsure of what to do, his usual jovial demeanor replaced by a look of genuine concern. "What's happening?" Patrick asks, his voice a tremble of fear. "I don't know," Karen replies, her voice tight with anxiety. "This isn't normal for him." Patrick's star-shaped body sags, the gravity of the situation weighing on him like an anchor. "I'm sorry," he murmurs, his voice a soft ripple of regret. "You need to be more careful," she says, her voice a firm current of resolution. "What you find funny can be incredibly distressing for him." Patrick's star-shaped body stills, his smile gone. "But it was just a joke," he says, his voice a soft ripple of defense. "It's not about joking," Karen says, her voice a firm reminder. "It's about respecting his boundaries." Patrick's star-shaped body seems to shrink even further, his smile lost to the gravity of the moment. He nods slowly, his voice a whisper of understanding. "Ok," he says. "I'll try to be more mindful." Karen's gaze turns back to Plankton, her voice a soothing song. "Come on, Plankton," she murmurs, her hand never leaving his. "You can do this." Plankton remains unresponsive. She tries to push down the fear, focusing instead on the task at hand. With a tremble in her voice, she calls out to him again, her words a gentle current of love and determination. "Plankton, sweetie," she says, her voice a soft caress. "You're safe. We're here." Plankton's body remains a tightly wound coil, rigid. Karen feels the weight of his unresponsiveness. She knows she has to be careful—too much stimulation could push him further into the sensory overload. She whispers his name again, her hand lightly tracing patterns on his, hoping for some sign of recognition. "Plankton," Hanna calls, her voice a gentle lilt. "You can come back now." "Wake up, Plankton," Karen whispers, her voice a warm embrace. "You're okay. It's just a bad day." Hanna watches as Karen's hand traces a familiar pattern on Plankton's. It's a calming gesture they've used countless times before to help him through moments of stress. The sun dips lower, casting long shadows over the picnic blanket, the warmth of its rays a stark contrast to the chill of fear that has settled in the air. Karen's voice is a soft, persistent whisper, her words a gentle rain trying to break through the concrete of his overload. "You're ok, Plankton," she repeats, her voice a soothing lullaby. "You' re safe." Plankton twitch the tiniest of movements that sends a spark of hope through Karen. She leans in closer, her voice a soft melody. "You're ok," she whispers, never leaving his unresponsive form. "You're with us." She strokes, her touch as light as a feather's kiss, whispering his name over and over again. The sun dips lower, painting the picnic area in a warm, golden light that seems to wrap around them, a gentle embrace. "Plankton," she says, her voice a gentle current. "You can do this. We're right here." With a tremble in her hand, Karen continues her calming motions, never leaving his unresponsive form. Each stroke of her hand is a silent promise that she'll never let him face the world's chaos alone. She whispers sweet nothings into the quiet, her voice a lullaby in the symphony of the park's sounds. The smell of the sea breeze is a constant reminder of their shared home, a beacon that could guide him back to reality. Hanna watches, feeling a mix of regret and determination to help. She remembers the first time she saw Plankton in the throes of an overload—how lost and scared he looked, and how powerless she felt. Now, with the knowledge of his condition, she's more equipped to offer comfort. She joins Karen, her hand mimicking the gentle patterns on his other tentacle. Together, their touch is a soothing balm, a reminder that he's not alone in this storm. "Come back to us," Hanna whispers, her voice a soft echo of Karen's. Plankton's quiver under their touch, the slightest indication that he's still with them, still fighting. Patrick sits in silent shock, his star-shaped body a stark contrast to the gentle movements of Karen and Hanna. He watches their synchronized strokes, the quiet determination etched into their faces. It's a dance of comfort, a silent communication that he's never seen before. As the sun dips below the horizon, the park starts to empty. With every whisper of her voice, every gentle stroke of her hand, Karen feels like she's fighting a battle against the unseen enemy of sensory overload. Plankton slowly began to uncoil, his body relaxing by degrees. It's a victory, but it's clear that the battle isn't over. Patrick sits in quiet reflection, his star-shaped body a silent sentinel of regret. He watches the two of them, their bond of care and concern a stark contrast to his own carelessness. His eyes are a pool of realization, the depths of which even he can't fully fathom. "What can I do?" he finally asks, his voice a soft ripple of remorse. "Just stay calm," she says, her voice a firm but gentle current. "And maybe, just maybe, learn from this." Patrick nods, his star-shaped body a silent promise of change. He watches as Karen and Hanna continue to work their magic on Plankton, their hands a silent symphony of care. Hanna's voice joins Karen's, a soft harmony of reassurance. "You're safe, Plankton," she whispers. "We're here." Slowly, Plankton's loosening tension in his body easing like the tide receding. His single eye opens a slit, peeking out at the worried faces above him. The world is a blur of colors and sounds, but their gentle voices cut through the fog. "You're ok," Karen whispers, a beacon of love. "We're here." Plankton slowly uncoil, his breaths shallow but growing steadier. The warmth of their touch and the safety in their voices is a lifeline pulling him back to the surface of consciousness. His eye opens wider, focusing on Karen's concerned gaze. "Where... am I?" he murmurs, his voice a confused whisper. Karen's with relief. "You're here, Plankton," she says, her voice a gentle stream of love. "You're with us." "My head," Plankton groans. "What happened?" "You had a sensory overload," she says, her voice a gentle breeze. "Do you remember anything?" Patrick's star-shaped body shifts uncomfortably, his gaze darting from Plankton to the picnic basket. "I...I didn't mean to," he stammers, his voice a soft ripple of regret. "I didn't know you'd react like that." Plankton's eye narrows slightly, moving sluggishly as he sits up. "What are you talking about?" he asks, his voice a low, confused murmur. Patrick's star-shaped body stiffens, his eyes darting to Karen. She gives him a firm look, nodding slightly. It's time for him to explain. "Remember when we were playing?" he starts, his voice a tentative wave. "I was being a bit... loud, and you got upset?" Plankton's twitch at the memory, the barest hint of irritation crossing his face. "Yes," he says, his voice a gravelly echo of his earlier distress. Patrick swallows hard, his star-shaped body a canvas of anxiety. "I didn't know it would affect you like that," he says, his voice a soft ripple of apology. "I'm sorry, buddy." "Don't call me buddy," he snaps, his voice a sharp crack of anger. "C'mon," Patrick says, his voice a cheerful wave. "Let's hug it out!" But Plankton recoils, withdrawing like a startled octopus. "No," he says firmly, his voice a steely cable of resolve. "I don't want you here." The words hit Patrick like a brick to the chest, his smile faltering. "What?" he asks, his voice a confused ripple. "You don't get it," Plankton says, his voice a harsh wave. "You think everything's a joke, but it's not. It's my life." Patrick's smile falters, his star-shaped body slumping. "But I'm for you," he says, his voice a pitiful ripple. "I didn't mean to—" "Get out!" Plankton yells, his voice a thunderclap in the quiet park. His tentacles flail, the anger and fear coalescing into a storm of movement. "I don't want you!" Patrick recoils, his star-shaped body shrinking before their eyes. "But, Plankton—" "I said get out!" Plankton's voice is a thunderous wave. The intensity of his outburst surprises even Karen and Hanna. Patrick, taken aback by the ferocity of Plankton's reaction, stammers a few times before his star-shaped body finally unfurls from its seated position. He takes a step back, his eyes reflecting a mix of sadness and confusion. "But I just wanted to show you," he says, his voice a small, sad ripple. "I don't care what you want," Plankton spits, his voice a harsh wave of anger. "You never think about me or what I need. Just leave!" Patrick's star-shaped body quivers, his usually bright eyes clouded with a mix of sadness and bewilderment. "But, Plankton, I—" "I said go!" Plankton's voice is a harsh wave crashing against the shore of their friendship. Patrick's star-shaped body sags, the weight of Plankton's words a heavy anchor dragging him down. He takes a few steps back, his eyes never leaving his friend's contorted form. "But I just —" "Please," Plankton says, his voice a gentle wave of exhaustion. "Just leave me the barnacles alone!" Patrick's star-shaped body quivers, his smile gone, replaced by a look of genuine sadness. "But Plankton, I didn't mean—" "No! I'm telling you, to beat it!" Patrick's star-shaped body deflates like a popped balloon, his eyes shimmering with unshed tears. He opens his mouth, but no words come out. The silence between them is a vast ocean, filled with the weight of misunderstanding and regret. Karen watches the exchange, her heart aching for both her husband and her friend. She knows the burden of Plankton's condition, the constant battle to navigate a world that doesn't always understand. And she sees the hurt in Patrick's eyes, the confusion that comes from trying to bridge the gap between his carefree nature and the reality of Plankton's challenges. With a gentle hand, she touches Plankton's shoulder. "It's ok," she says, her voice a soothing current. "You don't have to explain it to him." "Explain What?" Patrick asks, turning to Plankton. Plankton's tighten around his body, his eye narrowing into a slit of frustration. "You don't get it, do you?" he says, his voice a sharp wave of annoyance. "What's to get?" Patrick asks. "It's not your business," Plankton snaps, his voice a sharp wave of anger, as if to keep the painful truth from seeping out. Patrick's star-shaped body recoils, his eyes wide with shock. "But Plankton," he stammers, "I just wanted to—" "Back off, Patrick," Plankton says. Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, the shock of his friend's rejection sending ripples of sadness through him. "But, Plankton," he whispers, his voice a soft current of regret. But Plankton is too lost in the storm of his own emotions to hear the pain in Patrick's voice. He tries to stand, his tentacles trembling with the effort. The world around him sways, a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds that threatens to pull him back under. Karen reaches out, her hand a gentle reminder of the solid ground beneath him. "Take it easy," she whispers, her voice a gentle stream of comfort. "We better go home." Karen helps Plankton to his bed, the softness of the mattress a stark contrast to the harshness of the world outside. Hanna brings a cool cloth, her movements a soft ballet of care. She gently places it on Plankton's forehead. "Breathe," she whispers, her voice a gentle lilt. "In and out." Plankton's twitch, but doesn't push her away. He takes a deep, shuddering breath, his eye fluttering closed. The scent of the ocean fills the room, a comforting presence that seems to soothe his frayed nerves. Karen sits beside him, her hand a gentle pressure on his shoulder, her voice a calming current. "You're ok," she murmurs. "You're home." Hanna stands at the bedside with empathy. She reaches out, her hand hovering over Plankton's, unsure if she should touch him. But then she remembers the pattern from the park, the way his body had responded to their care. She lightly traces the same pattern, her hand moving in a gentle, rhythmic dance. "It's ok," she whispers, her voice a soft echo of Karen's. The tension in Plankton slowly eases, the tight coils loosening. Under the soothing touch of the cool cloth and the gentle whispers of Karen and Hanna, Plankton's breathing evens out as he relaxes. Plankton's chest rises and falls with the steady rhythm of sleep, his tentacles relaxed around the pillow. Karen's hand rests on his shoulder, her thumb tracing small circles, the motion as automatic as breathing. It's a silent promise of comfort, a reminder that she's there. Hanna stands at the bedside taking in the peaceful scene before her. She feels a pang of sadness, mixed with a fierce protectiveness. Plankton, once tight with anger and fear, now lay limp on the bed, occasionally twitching in his sleep. His single eye is closed and his mouth, usually a thin line of tension, is slightly parted. He looks so vulnerable, so unlike the sharp-tongued and often irritable friend she's come to know. "Thank you," Karen says softly, turning to Hanna. "You really helped him today." Hanna nods, a small smile playing. "We all learn from our mistakes," she says, her voice a gentle reminder of their shared growth. "I'm just sorry it had to be at his expense." Karen squeezes Plankton's shoulder, her gaze never leaving him. "It's not your fault," she says, her voice a gentle reassurance. "You've been nothing but amazing today." Hanna nods, still lingering on Plankton. "But we can't ignore the fact that Patrick needs to understand," she says firmly. "It's not just about today. It's about making sure he knows how to be there for Plankton in the future." Karen sighs, her gaze following Hanna's to Plankton's sleeping form. "I know," she says, her voice a soft sigh of resignation. "But Plankton has to be ready to talk to him. And right now, he's just too tired." The room is bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun, the light casting a warm, gentle net over the three of them. Hanna nods, her hand stilling on Plankton's. "Whenever he's ready," she says. "We're all here for him." Karen stands, her hand lingering on Plankton's shoulder for a moment longer before she pulls away. "Let's give him some space," she suggests, her voice a soft current of concern. "We can talk outside." Hanna nods, following Karen out of the room. The door closes with a soft click, leaving Plankton to the sanctuary of his quiet, low-stimulus environment. The tension in the air outside is palpable, a stark contrast to the serenity they've created for him. Plankton's tentacles twitch, the fabric of his reality shifting as he slowly comes to. The world is a blur of colors and shapes, but the voices of his wife and friend are a comforting melody that grounds him. He takes a deep breath, the scent of sea salt and home a gentle nudge back to consciousness. He gathers his strength, his tentacles sliding over the cool sheets before his bare feet touch the floor. The floorboards creak softly under his weight, a gentle symphony that guides him to the living room. The light is dimmer here, the soft glow of the setting sun filtering through the curtains. Karen and Hanna are perched on the couch, their whispers a comforting lullaby that fills the space. SUMMARY^1: Hanna and Karen respect Plankton's need for space, retreating to the living room to continue their discussion. As Plankton gradually awakens, the comfort of their care remains evident in the soothing ambiance they've maintained. The sensory details of his environment, from the light to the whispers of his wife and friend, reinforce the narrative's focus on the importance of creating a calm and accommodating space for those with sensory processing disorders. As he approaches, their conversation stops, their eyes meeting his with a mix of concern and hope. "Hey," Karen says, her voice a gentle ripple. "How are you feeling?" "Better," Plankton says, his voice a low murmur of exhaustion. He sits down heavily on the chair, his tentacles draping over the sides like seaweed in a gentle current. "Thanks for... everything." "Don't mention it," Karen says, her voice a soft breeze of empathy. "But we do need to talk about what happened at the park." Hanna nods, her gaze steady. "We can't ignore it," she says, her voice a clear stream of conviction. "I know," Plankton sighs, his tentacles twisting around the chair's armrests. "But it's just so... frustrating. I can't even enjoy a simple day out without—" "It's not simple for you," Karen says, her voice a gentle reminder. "And it's not fair to expect you to handle it alone." Hanna sits beside Plankton, her hand finding his tentacle, her touch a soft reassurance. "We're in this together," she says, her voice a firm promise. "We'll help you explain to Patrick." Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair's armrests, his eye reflecting a storm of emotions. "I don't know if I can," he admits, his voice a low rumble of doubt. Karen nods, her hand reaching out to cover his tentacle. "We'll do it together," she says, her voice a steady lighthouse in the storm. "We'll explain it to him, and he'll understand ." SUMMARY^1: Plankton expresses his frustration over the park incident, emphasizing the difficulty of managing his disorder. Karen and Hanna reassure him that they're a team and will support him in educating Patrick. Their gentle yet firm approach underscores their commitment to fostering an inclusive environment and ensuring Plankton's voice is heard, despite his apprehension about confronting the situation. SUMMARY^2: After the confrontation, Hanna and Karen respect Plankton's need for space, maintaining a calm environment. They recognize the necessity of educating Patrick and discuss the importance of empathy and respect. Plankton expresses his struggles, and they reassure him of their support in raising awareness, highlighting their unity and care for him. Plankton's tentacles relax slightly, the warmth of her touch seeping into his skin. "But what if he doesn't get it?" he asks, his voice a tentative wave of fear. "What if he never does?" Hanna squeezes his tentacle gently. "We'll make sure he does," she says, her voice a firm promise. "We'll be there to help you." Patrick's star-shaped body appears in the doorway, his eyes wide with concern. "Hey.." Karen looks up from her place beside Plankton, her gaze a soft invitation. "Come in," she says, her voice a gentle tide. "We need to talk." Patrick's star-shaped body fills the doorway, his eyes searching their faces for any signs of anger or hostility. But all he sees is concern and understanding. He takes a tentative step forward, his flippers shuffling against the wooden floor. "How is he?" he asks, his voice a cautious wave. Karen nods towards Plankton, who's sitting in the chair, his tentacles wrapped around the armrests like anchors. "He's better," she says, her voice a calm sea. "But we need to talk." Patrick's star-shaped body slumps, the weight of his own regret pulling him down. He steps into the room, his eyes never leaving Plankton's tentacles. "I'm sorry," he says, his voice a sad ripple. "I didn't mean to..." Plankton's tentacles loosen slightly, his eye opening a slit. "You never mean to," he says, his voice a tired wave of resignation. "But that doesn't change the fact that you did." SUMMARY^1: The conversation about the park incident shifts to include Patrick, who enters with trepidation, sensing the gravity of the situation. Despite his apology, Plankton remains weary, emphasizing the persistent impact of Patrick's actions. The scene underscores the need for those without sensory processing disorders to genuinely understand and accommodate their friends with such challenges. Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his eyes filling with regret. "But Plankton," he says, his voice a pleading ripple. "I didn't know." "It's okay," Karen says, her voice a soothing wave. "We're all here to learn." She pats the couch cushion beside her. "Come sit." Patrick approaches slowly, his star-shaped body hunched with the weight of his apology. He sits down on the couch, his eyes never leaving Plankton's tentacles. "What up?" he asks, his voice a hopeful current. Plankton takes a deep breath, his tentacles unfurling from the chair. "Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of weariness, "I need you to understand something." The starfish's eyes widen, his flippers clenching at his side. "I'm listening," he says, his voice a tentative ripple. Plankton's tentacles sway slightly, his gaze intense. "What happened today was more than just me being upset," he starts, his voice a strong current of determination. Karen and Hanna nod in unison, their eyes reflecting their understanding. "What do you mean?" Patrick's star-shaped body leans forward, his voice a curious wave of innocence. His flippers hang by his sides, twitching slightly as he waits for an answer. SUMMARY^1: As Patrick expresses his regret, Karen invites him to join the discussion, emphasizing the educational nature of the conversation. Plankton starts to explain the depth of his experience, hinting at the complexity of his sensory challenges. The room's atmosphere is one of openness and willingness to learn, with Karen and Hanna providing a supportive backdrop to Plankton's tentative attempt to communicate his needs. Plankton's tentacles tense, his single eye narrowing with apprehension. He's been down this path before, explaining his condition to those who don't understand. "It's... it's like when you're in a quiet room, and suddenly, someone slams a door," he says, his voice a hesitant ripple. "It's not just the sound that bothers me. It's the way it makes me feel." Patrick's star-shaped body nods, his eyes wide with curiosity. "But why?" he asks, his voice a persistent wave of confusion. "I mean, I get scared of jellyfish, but I don't get like that when someone's just... loud." Plankton's tentacles twitch with frustration, his eye flashing. "It's not just about being loud," he says, his voice a wave of exasperation. "It's about... it's about the way everything hits me." "Hits you?" Patrick echoes, his star-shaped body leaning closer. His flippers wave in the air, trying to grasp the invisible concepts. "But you're not, like, physically hit, are you?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his patience waning. "It's not like that, Patrick," he says, his voice a frustrated wave. "It's... it's like my brain can't sort out all the sensory input at once." Patrick's star-shaped body tilts to the side, his flippers waving in a display of confusion. "But you're so smart," he says, his voice a bewildered ripple. "How can something like that be so hard for you?" Plankton's tentacles coil around the chair, his eye narrowing. "It's not about being smart, Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of irritation. "It's about how my brain works. How can you not get that?" "I'm trying," Patrick says, his star-shaped body wobbling. "But I just don't get it." His flippers slap against the couch cushion in frustration. "You're always so... so... intense about everything." Plankton's tentacles coil around the chair, his eye closing in a moment of defeat. "That's because everything is intense for me," he says, his voice a gentle wave of explanation. "It's not something I can just turn off." Patrick's star-shaped body sags, his flippers drooping. "But why?" he asks, his voice a confused ripple. "Why can't you just tell your brain to chill?" Plankton's tentacles thrash in agitation, his eye flashing with irritation. "You wouldn't ask someone to just not be hungry, would you?" he snaps, his voice a sharp wave of frustration. "It's not something I can control!" Patrick's star-shaped body jolts at the harshness of Plankton's tone, his flippers retreating. "But... but I don't get it," he stammers, his voice a confused ripple. "How can you not control it?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye a slit of annoyance. "It's not something you can get, Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of exasperation. "It's just how I am." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers reaching out as if to touch Plankton's tentacles but stopping just short. "But why do you get so upset?" he asks, his voice a puzzled ripple. "Can't you just tell your body it's okay?" Plankton's tentacles quiver with the effort of holding back his frustration. "It's not that simple," he says, his voice a strained wave of patience. "Imagine if every time you saw a jellyfish, your body just... reacted without you being able to stop it." Patrick's star-shaped body quivers at the mention of jellyfish, his flippers retreating. "But jellyfish can sting me," he protests, his voice a defensive ripple. "That's different." "For you, maybe," Plankton says, his voice a gentle wave of resignation. "But for me, it's like that all the time. The sounds, the lights, the touches. They all just... overwhelm me." Patrick's star-shaped body quivers, his flippers twitching as he tries to comprehend. "But why?" he asks again, his voice a persistent ripple of curiosity. "What makes it so hard?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye a storm of emotions. "It's just how I'm," he says, his voice a wave of frustration. "My brain can't filter things like yours can." Patrick's star-shaped body sways slightly, his flippers moving in a contemplative pattern. "But what if we could, like, get over it?" he asks, his voice a hopeful ripple. "Or, I don't know, like learn?" Plankton's tentacles loosen their grip on the chair, his eye softening with a mix of pity and irritation. "Patrick," he says, his voice a sigh of patience. "It's not something you get over. It's part of me." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers moving in a nervous dance. "But what if you tried?" he suggests, his voice a hopeful wave. Plankton's tentacles coil around his body, his eye closing in a brief moment of resignation. "I've tried," he says, his voice a tired murmur. "I've spent my whole life trying." Patrick's star-shaped form jolts at the admission, his flippers hovering in the air as he tries to process the depth of Plankton's struggle. "But... but what can we do?" he asks, his voice a hopeful ripple. "We can't just ignore your stubbornness." Plankton's tentacles thrash in irritation, his eye flashing. "It's not stubbornness, Patrick," he says, his voice a sharp wave of frustration. "It's a disorder." Patrick's star-shaped body recoils at the sharpness of Plankton's tone, his flippers retreating. "A... a what?" he asks, his voice a confused ripple. "A sensory processing disorder," Karen says, her voice a calm sea. "It's like your brain's filter is clogged, it's not something you can just wash away." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers flapping in a flurry of confusion. "But... but why?" he asks again, his voice a persistent ripple. "Why can't you just tell to work better?" Plankton's tentacles coil around the chair, his patience wearing thin. "Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of exasperation. "You can't just tell your body not to be afraid of jellyfish stings, can you?" Patrick's star-shaped body flinches at the mention of jellyfish, his flippers retreating. "But that's different," he protests, his voice a defensive ripple. "They're dangerous." Plankton's tentacles quiver with the effort to remain calm. "I know they are to you," he says, his voice a gentle wave of understanding. "But for me, it's like every little thing is a jellyfish sting." Patrick's star-shaped body sags, his flippers drooping. "But... but that's no way to live," he says, his voice a sad ripple. "You gotta be so... so difficult Plankton?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye narrowing with annoyance. "It's not about being difficult," he says, his voice a firm wave. "It's about my survival." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers moving in a confused dance. "Survival?" he echoes, his voice a ripple of doubt. "But we're in your house, Plankton. You're safe here." Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye closing in a long blink. "It's not just about safety," he explains, his voice a wave of weariness. "It's about comfort. Being able to be ... me." Patrick's star-shaped body tilts to the side, his flippers waving in a gesture of confusion. "But so an inconvenience," he says, his voice a puzzled ripple. "Why can't you just, I dunno, deal with it?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his single eye opening wide with disbelief. "You don't understand," he says, his voice a wave of frustration. "It's not just an inconvenience. It's like... it's like being in a room that's too bright, too loud, and too crowded all at once, without any way to escape." Patrick's star-shaped body quivers, his flippers moving in a pattern that seems to mimic Plankton's agitation. "But you're so strong," he protests, his voice a ripple of confusion. "Why can't you just, you know, handle it?" Plankton's tentacles coil around the chair, his eye flashing with a mix of frustration and sadness. "It's not about strength, Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of patience. "It's about... it's about my brain not being able to handle certain things without getting overwhelmed." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers moving in a contemplative pattern. "But you're so smart," he says, his voice a hopeful ripple. "Why can't your brain just... just fix itself?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye closing briefly in a silent plea for understanding. "It's not about being smart, Patrick," he says, his voice a gentle wave of exasperation. "It's about... it's about the way my brain processes things." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers twitching with curiosity. "But... but why?" he asks, his voice a persistent ripple. "Why does your brain work differently?" Plankton's tentacles quiver with the effort of explaining. "It's not something I can change." Patrick's star-shaped body tilts, his flippers waving in the air. "Not with that attitude" he asks, his voice a persistent ripple of curiosity. Plankton's tentacles coil around the chair tightly, his eye flashing. "It's not about attitude, Patrick," he says, his voice a wave of frustration. "It's called neurodisability." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers reaching out as if to grasp the concept. "But, but what does that mean?" he asks, his voice a confused ripple. "How come you have it?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye closing in a long blink of resignation. "I was born with it," he says, his voice a wave of acceptance. Patrick's star-shaped body sags, his flippers dropping to his side. "But... but Plankton," he says, his voice a sad ripple. "You can't just be born with something like that." "It's true," Karen says, her voice a gentle wave of confirmation. "During Plankton's birth caused some issues with oxygen and blood flow to his head." Karen explains, her voice a calm sea of knowledge. "And in Plankton's case, restriction affected the part of his brain that handles sensory input." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers moving in a pattern of realization. "So... so that's why you get so upset?" he asks, his voice a ripple of empathy. Plankton's tentacles loosen slightly around the chair, his eye opening to meet Patrick's gaze. "Yes," he says, his voice a wave of relief. "It's not something I can control." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers reaching out tentatively. "But, but Plankton," he says, his voice a hopeful ripple. "Can't we do something? Like, I don't know, practice?" Plankton's tentacles tighten around the chair, his eye a storm of emotions. "Practice?" he echoes, his voice a skeptical wave. "You don't just practice away a neurological disorder, Patrick." Patrick's star-shaped body sags, his flippers drooping. "But, but I want to help," he says, his voice a sad ripple. "I don't want to keep making it hard for you." Karen's eyes are a soft sea of gratitude as she looks at Patrick. "That's really kind of you," she says, her voice a gentle wave of appreciation. "But it's not about fixing Plankton. It's about understanding and accommodating him." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles, his flippers moving in a pattern of thought. "But I don't get it," he says, his voice a confused ripple. "What do we do?" Hanna's tentacle reaches out, patting his flippers in a gesture of reassurance. "We learn, Patrick," she says, her voice a soothing wave. "We learn about Plankton's needs and we make sure to respect them." Patrick's star-shaped body nods, his flippers still. "Ok," he says, his voice a tentative ripple. "But how?" Karen's gaze is a calm sea of patience as she looks at him. "It's about paying attention to his cues," she says, her voice a gentle wave of guidance. "When he's getting overwhelmed, he'll start to withdraw or get tense." Patrick's star-shaped body nods slowly, his flippers still. "I see," he says, his voice a ripple of understanding. "So, I should, like, turn down the volume?" "Exactly," Karen says, her voice a warm sea of approval. "And maybe avoid jumping out to prod him." Patrick's star-shaped body wobbles with embarrassment, his flippers slapping his forehead. "Right," he mumbles, his voice a chastised ripple. "No more surprise jellyfish." Karen chuckles, her tentacles rippling with the sound. "Exactly," she says, her voice a comforting wave. "We all have our limits." Patrick's star-shaped body straightens, his flippers moving in a determined pattern. "But, but I want to be a good friend," he says, his voice a hopeful ripple. "I don't want to keep messing up." Hanna's tentacle wraps around his arm, offering a squeeze of support. "You are, Patrick," she says, her voice a warm wave. "You're here, you're listening, and you're trying to understand. That's all anyone can ask for."Today was the day of the dreaded appointment— Plankton's visit to the oral surgeon. The dentist will do a minor procedure to remove his wisdom teeth. He gripped Karen's hand tightly as they waited for the oral surgeon, Dr. McFinnigan, to enter the room. Dr. McFinnigan walked in with a friendly smile, a man who'd performed countless such procedures. He reviewed the X-rays with a quick nod, explaining that Plankton's wisdom teeth were needed to be removed. Karen squeezed her husband's hand reassuringly. Plankton took a deep breath, his heart pounding in his chest. The nurse, a kind-faced woman named Alice, began prepping Plankton for surgery. First, she gently placed a mouth prop into his mouth, which was shaped like a small, curved piece of plastic. She instructed him to bite down on it, and he did so. She then inserted an IV into his hand with a gentle touch and started the flow of anesthesia. As the room grew fuzzy around the edges, Plankton's grip on Karen's hand loosens as he drifted into oblivious sleep. The last thing he heard was Karen's voice, a beacon of calm in the sea of his fears, whispering, "You'll be ok." "You can stay with him during the procedure," Alice says to Karen, who nods. As Plankton lies unconscious, Karen watches the team of medical professionals with a mix of awe and anxiety. She's seen his teeth before, of course, but now, with the bright lights of the surgery room highlighting every detail, they seem alien and vulnerable. The nurse swabs his gums with a cold, minty solution, and Plankton's face relaxes even further. The anesthetic begins to take effect, and Dr. McFinnigan inserts a needle to numb the area around the wisdom teeth. Karen winces at the sight but Plankton doesn't flinch, lost to the world of anesthesia. The doctor's voice is a comforting murmur in the background as he explains the process to her. The numbing agent spreads through Plankton's gums, turning his mouth into a cottony, sensationless void. Once the area is fully numb, Dr. McFinnigan starts the procedure. Karen can't help but feel a twinge of empathy for her husband's vulnerable state, even though he's blissfully unaware of it. The surgery proceeds smoothly, with the only sounds in the room being the muffled noises of the medical tools and the occasional instruction from Dr. McFinnigan. Karen watches as they manipulate Plankton's mouth, his jaws slack with sleep, his breaths deep and regular. They manage his sleeping mouth like skilled puppeteers, moving his tongue aside, placing instruments with precision. The sight is both fascinating and slightly disturbing, but she knows it's all for his own good. A few moments later, Dr. McFinnigan starts the extraction, his movements swift and confident. Plankton's chest rises and falls in a peaceful slumber. Karen's eyes remain glued to her husband's serene expression. Dr. McFinnigan's hands move with practiced ease, guiding the instrument into Plankton's mouth, the whirring a strange lullaby in the sterile environment. The scent of antiseptic fills the air as the tooth is gradually exposed, the gum line peeling back to reveal the white enamel beneath. Karen feels a strange fascination with the process, despite the tension coiled in her stomach. The doctor's grip tightens around the tooth, and with a quick tug, it's out. Plankton's body jolts slightly, but he remains asleep. The nurse, Alice, gives Karen a reassuring smile. "Just a reflex," she says. The tooth, once a source of pain and anxiety, now rests in a metal tray, looking surprisingly small and harmless. Dr. McFinnigan repeats the process for the other three teeth, each extraction a silent victory. The nurse continues to clean and irrigate Plankton's mouth. As the last tooth is removed, Dr. McFinnigan sighs in satisfaction and steps back, allowing Alice to take over. She carefully stitches up the gum line, her movements methodical and precise. The sutures are tiny, almost invisible, but Karen knows they're there, a silent guardian against infection and pain. The doctor pats her husband's cheek gently, a signal that the worst is over. The nurse applies a gauze pad to the wounds, pressing down firmly to encourage the clotting process. Plankton's face is a mask of peace, oblivious to the battle just fought. Plankton's mouth, no longer in the firm grip of the prop, relaxes, and a stream of saliva starts to trickle from the corner of his mouth. Karen's eyes widen as she watches the drool pool on the pillow below his head. She's never seen him like this, so utterly defenseless. Her urge to laugh is swiftly overridden by a sudden surge of tenderness. Reaching for a tissue, she carefully wipes the drool away, leaving a faint trail of dampness on his skin. The nurse, Alice, notices and offers a knowing smile. "It's normal." Karen nods, trying to keep the worry from her voice. "I know, but I hate seeing him like this." Alice finishes her work and checks the monitors. "He's doing great. The anesthesia will wear off soon, and he'll be groggy but okay." The doctor nods in agreement. "Remember, he'll be quite loopy when he wakes up. Try not to let him talk too much or eat anything solid for the next few hours." Karen nods, her eyes never leaving her husband's face. She's heard this before, but the reality of seeing him in this state makes the instructions feel more urgent. As if on cue, the door to the surgery room swings open, and in waddles a familiar figure in a square-shaped body and yellow sponge attire— SpongeBob. "Surprise, Plankton!" he exclaims, his voice high-pitched and cheerful. Karen told only the doctors that Spongebob was going to record by putting his recording phone in his pocket to get Plankton on film.. It's such a typical Sponge Bob move, turning up unannounced to spread joy in the most unexpected of places. While Sponge Bob's intentions are pure, his curiosity about the surgery aftermath is a bit much for Karen's nervous stomach. He leans over the recovery chair, peering into Plankton's open mouth, his eyes wide with wonder. "Wow, Plankton!" The nurse, Alice, chuckles softly. "Careful now, Sponge Bob, he's still asleep." But Sponge Bob is undeterred, his curiosity about whatever happens next piqued. "What will Plankton say when he wakes up?" Sponge Bob whispers, his eyes alight with excitement. Karen can't help but chuckle at his childlike enthusiasm. "I'm not sure," she says, shaking her head, "but he's probably going to be pretty out of it." Sponge Bob's eyes light up with curiosity. "Out of it? What's that like?" Karen, trying to keep a straight face, explains, "Well, he'll be groggy, his mouth will be numb, and he might not make much sense for a bit." Sponge Bob nods, his curiosity piqued. "Will he talk funny?" Karen laughs quietly. "Yeah, probably. Yet we don't want to startle him when he wakes up." Sponge Bob nods solemnly, taking his role as the designated comforter to heart. He squeezes Plankton's arm gently. "Don't worry, buddy," he whispers to the sleeping Plankton, "I'll be here to make sure nothing bad happens!" Karen watches, amusement warring with anxiety. The sight of her husband, usually so sharp and cunning, laid out and defenseless, is a stark contrast to the usual image of him scheming in his lab. Sponge Bob, on the other hand, seems to be in his element, eager to explore every nook and cranny of the situation. "What happens next?" he whispers, his eyes glued to the nurse's movements as she carefully dresses the wounds. Karen glances over at the doctor, who seems unfazed by Sponge Bob's presence. "Well, we'll get him into recovery. He'll wake up in a bit." The nurse, Alice, gives her a nod, and they start to move Plankton to the recovery room. Sponge Bob trails behind, his eyes still wide with interest. The room is filled with a soft beeping from the monitors, the only sound piercing the quiet hush of the post-surgery calm. Karen holds the hand with the iv while spongebob holds his other hand. She gently pats Plankton's shoulder. "You're okay, honey. The surgery's over," she whispers. Slowly, Plankton's eye flutter open, the anesthesia clouding his vision. He tries to focus on Karen's face, but her features blur together like a watercolor painting left in the rain. "Wha...whewe am I?" His speech is slurred, looking around the unfamiliar surroundings of the recovery room. His eye met Karen's, and he tries to form words around his swollen mouth. "Wha..." he mumbles, his voice slurred and indistinct. Karen, sitting by the bedside, stifles a laugh at the sight of her husband's confused expression. "Wha...what...?" Plankton mumbles, his voice slurred. Sponge Bob claps his hands together. "You're awake!" Plankton squints at the brightly colored sponge in front of him. "Spongemah-" His voice is a garbled mess, and his mouth feels like it's been stuffed with cotton balls. Sponge Bob, ever the eager conversationalist, jumps in, "Yeah, Plankton, buddy! I'm here to make sure you're okay!" Karen can't help but chuckle at the absurdity of the situation. Plankton's eye widen, and she can almost see the gears turning in his mind as he tries to make sense of Sponge Bob's sudden appearance. "W-wis...wisdom teeth?" he finally manages to say. The nurse, Alice, nods and smiles. "All done, Mr. Plankton. You're in recovery now." "How... did I get fwom the firsh woom and move to thish woom?" he slurs, his mouth feeling heavy and foreign. Karen's laughter subsides into a gentle smile. "You went to sleep, sweetie, and they brought you here. You're in recovery now." She squeezes his hand gently, her thumb brushing against his knuckles. Sponge Bob nods enthusiastically. "Yeah, I helped! I watched the whole thing!" Plankton blinks, his eyes glazed. "Whath... you watched?" Karen nods, her smile never faltering. "Sponge Bob was here to keep me company. He said he wanted to make sure you were okay." Sponge Bob's grin is uncontainable. "And now you are! No more wisdom teeth woes for you!" Plankton's eyes dart around the room, still not fully comprehending. His mouth feels like a swollen, useless appendage. "W-whath...whath are those?" He points to the gauze pads in his mouth. Alice, the nurse, chuckles and explains, "Those are to help stop the bleeding. You had some teeth removed, remember?" Plankton's eyes widen in understanding, and he nods slightly, his hand moving to touch the gauze. The pain is muted, thanks to the anesthesia, but he can feel the emptiness where his teeth used to be. "Mmph," he murmurs, his voice muffled by the gauze. Sponge Bob, noticing his friend's discomfort, leans in closer, his eyes shining with concern. "You okay, Plankton?" The latter attempts to respond, but all that comes out is a series of random words that make no sense. "Bubble... squidward... jellyfish..." Karen's smile grows wider as she tries to interpret Plankton's jumbled speech. "It's okay, the anesthesia can make you say funny things," she soothes him, stroking his forehead gently. The nurse, Alice, nods in agreement. "It's normal. The medication can loosen up the tongue. Sometimes patients say the most peculiar things." She winks at Karen, who can't help but chuckle. Plankton, seemingly unfazed by his nonsensical speech, continues to mumble a string of words that make even less sense as the minutes tick by—"Bikini... bottom... Krabby Patty... secret formula..." Karen's eyes widen slightly at the mention of the secret formula, but she knows he's not in his right mind. Sponge Bob nods along, as if Plankton's words are the most profound statements he's ever heard. "Oh, yes, the secret formula! It's a secret, right?" Plankton's eyes roll back in his head for a moment before focusing on Sponge Bob. "Mmph, yesh... secret... formulash..." He smiles sleepily, his speech still slurred. The doctor, Dr. McFinnigan, checks the monitors. "Looks like he's coming around nicely," he says, turning to Karen with a nod. "You can take him home. Just remember, no strenuous activity and soft foods only." Karen nods, her heart swelling with gratitude. "Thank you, doctor." The nurse, Alice, helps Plankton sit up, carefully supporting his head. His eye still glazed over, but he seems to be coming around. "Can I... can I go hone now-ow?" he mumbles, his voice still thick with anesthesia. "Yes, you can," Karen says, smiling as she stands up. "But I'll have to drive us home." The nurse, Alice, nods. "It's best if someone else drives for the first few hours after anesthesia." Karen nods and looks at the doctor gratefully before turning to Sponge Bob. "Can you help me get him to the car?" Sponge Bob's eyes light up at the challenge. "Of course, Karen!" He puffs out his chest and gently lifts Plankton by the shoulders, his own face a mask of concentration. Plankton, still groggy, leans heavily on Sponge Bob. "One...two...three!" Karen counts, and together, they manage to get him to his wobbly feet. Plankton's legs seem to have forgotten their purpose, and he stumbles between them like a newborn foal. His speech is still a slurred mess, but he seems to find the whole situation hilarious. "Heehee, I'm wobbly," he giggles, his laughter sounding more like a muffle through a pillow. Sponge Bob, ever the good sport, plays along, holding onto Plankton's arm as if they're all just playing a game of Twister. "You got this, buddy," he encourages, his yellow sponge hand wrapped around Plankton for support. "Just like a merry-go-round, right?" Karen shakes her head, trying to keep a straight face. "Not quite, Sponge Bob, but thank you for your help." She gently takes Plankton's other arm, the two of them guiding him down the hospital corridor like a tipsy pirate. The walk to the car is a slow, awkward dance, with Plankton's wobbly legs and slurred speech providing a surprisingly entertaining soundtrack. "Walketh the plank... to the ca--" he giggles, his feet barely cooperating. Karen opens the passenger door with a sigh of relief, guiding Plankton into the seat like he's a toddler learning to climb into his high chair. He fumbles with the seatbelt, his fingers too thick and clumsy to manage the buckle. Sponge Bob, ever eager, leaps into action. "Let me help!" he says, his voice high-pitched and full of energy. The nurse, Alice, watches from the hospital entrance, her smile warm and amused. "He's going to be fine," she says, patting Karen on the back as she hands her a small bag of ice. "Just keep that on his cheek to reduce swelling." Sponge Bob nods eagerly. "I'll make sure he doesn't do anything crazy!" He winks at the nurse, who laughs and waves them off. Plankton, caught between confusion and amusement, starts to drool as Karen drives out of the parking lot. "It's okay, sweetie," Karen says. Plankton nods, his eyes droopy. "I feel...I feel wike a babby," he slurs, his speech still a mess from the anesthesia. Sponge Bob's delighted by this unexpected turn of events. "Like a what?" "Wike a babby," Plankton repeats, his words still jumbled. Sponge Bob's eyes light up. "Oh, you mean like a little baby?" He asks, which only makes Plankton giggle more. "Yesh, like a babby," Plankton manages, his head lolling against the seat. Sponge Bob nods with understanding. "You need that drool wiped up before it makes the car seat messy.." Karen, still smiling, pulls out a pack of wipes from the bag the nurse had given her. "Here," she says, handing one to Sponge Bob. "You can be in charge of keeping him clean." Sponge Bob takes the wipe with the seriousness of a knight receiving a quest from a king. "I'm on it!" He says, leaning over to gently wipe the drool from Plankton's chin. Plankton giggles. "Wook at me," he slurs, "I'm a wittle tea pot, uh how's it go?" He waves his arms in the air. Karen's eyes dart from the road to the rearview mirror, taking in the absurd sight of her husband acting like a toddler. "You're doing great," she says with a laugh. "Wook at me, I'm a wooky monster!" he says, his voice still thick with anesthesia. Karen chuckles, her grip tight on the steering wheel as she navigates the streets of Bikini Bottom. "You're more like a sleepy puppy, Plankton." Sponge Bob nods in agreement, his eyes darting from the road to his friend. "Yeah, Plankton, you're gonna end up being mortified after your naps," he says, patting Plankton's shoulder. Plankton giggles again, his head lolling against the car seat. "Mmph, nap," he mumbles. Sponge Bob, delighted by his friend's loopy state, starts to hum a lullaby. "Hush little Plankton, don't say a word, mama's gonna buy you a Krabby Patty herd." "Okay SpongeBob," Karen says with an amused warning look. Sponge Bob, unfazed, keeps humming. "Hush little Plankton, don't you cry, Plankton's gonna sleep the whole day through..." Plankton's eyelid growing heavier with each passing second. He snuggles into the seat, his body slack against the belt. "Mmph, I'm tiwed," he mumbles, his words barely coherent. Sponge Bob, ever the attentive friend, notices Plankton's eye drooping. "Looks like someone's ready for a nap," he says with a chuckle, patting Plankton's shoulder gently. Karen nods, her eyes still on the road. "Just don't let him drool all over you, Sponge Bob. Or the phone that's definitely not filming.." She winks. Sponge Bob laughs. "I'll keep an eye on it!" He says, holding the phone up. "And I'll keep an eye on you too, Plankton," he adds, turning to the phone to his friend, who's now dozed off and leaning heavily against him. Plankton's snores are quiet but persistent, his mouth still slightly open, and the gauze in his mouth bobbing slightly with each breath. The car ride home is a mix of Karen's soft humming and the occasional giggle from Sponge Bob as he watches Plankton sleep. His body sags against Sponge Bob, who does his best to keep him upright. Plankton's arm flops over the side, his hand brushing against the car door. Sponge Bob gently lifts it back onto his lap. "Looks like someone's out cold," he whispers to Karen while giving a thumbs up to the recording phone. Karen laughs softly. "Plankton if you're watching, don't destroy us." Sponge Bob adjusts Plankton's body, shifting him into a more comfortable position against the car seat. "Don't worry, Karen," he whispers, "I've got him." Plankton's snores grow louder, echoing gently through the car. Plankton's head lolls to the side, his mouth gaping open, and a string of drool connecting to Sponge Bob's shoulder. "It's okay, buddy," he whispers. "You just rest." "Mmph, I'm gonna get it, gimme," Plankton mutters, his voice a mixture of a sleep-talking toddler's and his usual villainous tone. Karen, trying not to laugh too hard, keeps her eyes on the road. "It's just sleep talk. It's common after anesthesia." The snores from Plankton's open mouth are peaceful, a stark contrast to his usual sharp and cunning demeanor. Each snore fills the car with a gentle rhythm that almost lulls Karen into a sense of calm. The surgery went well, and the worst is over. She can't help but feel a little relieved. They pull up at the chum bucket. Karen glances at him in the rearview mirror, her eyes still smiling. "Well, we'll get him into bed. He'll probably sleep the rest of the day." The car comes to a gentle stop in front of the Chum Bucket. Plankton's eye flutter open at the sound of the engine dying. "Whath...whath happening?" He mumbles, his voice still thick and slurred. "We're home," Karen says, turning to smile at him. "Time to get you into bed." Sponge Bob nods, his own energy seemingly unaffected by the events of the day. "I'll help you get him inside," he says, already reaching for the door handle. They manage to wake Plankton enough to get him out of the car, his legs moving in a clumsy shuffle as they guide him into the Chum Bucket. The dim light of the living room does little to help his dazed state. "Hone sweed hone," he slurs, his voice barely audible. Sponge Bob, ever the eager assistant, opens the fridge. "What can we get you, Plankton?" He asks, peering into the cold abyss filled with various jars of chum. "No...no food," Plankton mumbles, his mouth still half-numb. Karen nods, gently steering him towards the bedroom. "Just some ice and water, for now," she says to Sponge Bob, who nods understandingly and fetches a cup from the kitchen. In the bedroom, Karen helps Plankton into bed, carefully removing the gauze from his mouth and placing it on the bedside table. He giggles to himself, his cheeks flushing with the excitement of his anesthesia-induced delirium. "Would you like some ice chips?" Sponge Bob offers, holding the cup out to him. Plankton nods, his eyes still glazed. "Yesh, please," he slurs, his voice a soft, needy whisper. Sponge Bob eagerly brings over the cup of ice chips, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Here you go, Plankton," he says, his voice gentle and soothing. "Just take a few at a time." Plankton's eye light up with childlike glee. "Tank you, Spongy," he says, reaching for the cup with a shaky hand. The ice clinks against his teeth, sending a jolt of cold through his mouth. He giggles, the sensation strange and oddly delightful. "You're welcome, Plankton," Sponge Bob says, his voice filled with warmth. Plankton nods, his eye half-closed. "Mmph, yesh," he says, taking another tentative sip. "You know, Spongy, I think I could get used to thish, having a friend...like you." He reaches out and pats Sponge Bob's hand with a tenderness that catches both of them off guard. Sponge Bob's eyes widen, unsure of how to respond to this sudden outpour of affection from the usually reserved Plankton. "Youw wike...my bestest fwiend in the whole wide shea." He tries to pat Sponge Bob's hand again, but his coordination is still off, and his hand misses the mark. Sponge Bob laughs gently. "Well, Plankton, you're pretty great too," he says, taking the cup of ice chips from Plankton's hand and setting it aside. "Now, let's get you nice and comfortable." Plankton nods, his head lolling on the pillow. "I don't wanth to be wobbly." Sponge Bob chuckles, his eyes crinkling with affection. "You won't be, buddy. Just rest." He carefully arranges the pillows around Plankton's head, ensuring his mouth stays elevated. Plankton's eye close, his breathing shallow and even. "Mmph, I'm gonna miss you when I'm asweep," he murmurs, his words barely audible. Sponge Bob's heart swells. "Don't worry, Plankton, I'll be right here when you wake up," he says, his voice gentle and reassuring. Plankton finally falls asleep and SpongeBob ends the film. When Plankton next wakes up, any trace of anesthesia is gone. He's in his bedroom, and SpongeBob is there. Plankton's eye flutter open, and he blinks several times, trying to bring the room into focus. The first thing he sees is the ceiling of his own room, which is a comfort, but the second is Sponge Bob, which is... peculiar. "What in Neptune's name are you doing here!" Plankton asks. Sponge Bob jumps slightly, his eyes wide. "Oh, you're awake!" He says cheerfully, his voice a stark contrast to the confusion in Plankton's tone. Plankton tries to sit up, but the pain shoots through his jaw, making him groan. "Whath's..." He mumbles, his hand reaching for his mouth. Karen rushes into the room, her face a mix of concern and amusement. "Take it easy, honey," she says, pushing him gently back down. "You just had your wisdom teeth out." Ah yes, his dentist appointment. He remembered going in the room and holding Karen's hand, and being woken up. But nothing else. "You had a little bit of an anesthesia-induced nap, Plankton," Karen says, her voice soothing. "You were talking nonsense, but it was cute." She says with a smile. Plankton blinks, trying to process her words. His mouth feels swollen and alien, his tongue probing at the empty sockets where his teeth used to be. "Wha...what did I shay?" He demands, his voice barely a whisper. Both Karen and SpongeBob smile, seeing Plankton back to being himself. "You said a lot of things," Sponge Bob starts, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "But the most important part was that you called me your bestest fwiend in the whole wide shea." He says, his voice filled with mock seriousness. Plankton's cheeks flush, his eye widening. "I said what!" He exclaims, his voice a mix of horror and embarrassment. "I doubt it, SquarePants; if so then it's hallucinations." Sponge Bob laughs, his cheeks puffing out with mirth. "Nope, you really said it," he confirms, holding up his phone. "And it's all recorded, and I sent the proof to Karen.." Karen snatches the phone, her eyes scanning the screen with a knowing smile. "Let's not make this a permanent memory just yet, shall we?" She says. Plankton's eye opens wide with indignation. "Give me that phone!" He snaps, trying to sit up again, but the pain in his jaw stops him. Sponge Bob holds the phone just out of reach, his smile widening. "Now, Plankton, it's not nice to demand things, especially after you've had surgery." Plankton's eye narrows, his voice stronger despite the pain. "Give. Me. That. Phone." He says, his voice a low growl. Sponge Bob, unfazed by the threat, holds the phone higher. "Now, now, Plankton," he says, his voice teasing. "You know the drill. No strenuous activity for at least 24 hours. But I can air-drop it onto the television so we all can watch it on the big screen!" Karen's smile widens, and she nods. "That's a great idea, Sponge Bob. It'll be like a home movie!" Sponge Bob's grin stretches from ear to ear as he taps away on his phone, the video transferring to the TV. "Just a little slice of our day, Plankton," he says, his voice filled with innocence. Karen, sitting on the edge of the bed, suppresses a laugh. "It's for your own good, Plankton," she says, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "You'll thank us later." "Oh boy," he murmurs, his cheeks growing red. The film plays out on the television, showing Plankton's mouth gaping open, as Spongebob behind the camera says "Surprise, Plankton!" playing back. The video starts with Plankton lying on the hospital bed, his eye shut. "Careful now SpongeBob, he's still asleep," says nurse Alice in the film. Sponge Bob's eager face appears in the frame, his eyes wide with excitement. "Oh boy, I can't wait to show him!" He whispers to the camera. Meanwhile as he watches himself, Plankton's mortified. "This is humiliating," he mumbles. On the screen, Plankton is shown waking up. "All done, Mr. Plankton. You're in recovery now." "How... did I get fwom the firsh woom and move to thish woom?" "You had to be wheeled," Karen's voice says from the video, trying to keep a straight face. Plankton watches himself, his face twisted in confusion and pain, as he tries to navigate the world without his usual sharp wit. His words are slurred and incoherent, his actions clumsy and uncoordinated. It's a stark contrast to the clever, cunning Plankton they know, and both Karen and Sponge Bob can't help but laugh at his expense. On the video, Plankton's eye open wider as he sees himself in the car, his head lolling against the seat. "I'm a wittle tea pot," he slurs, his arms waving in the air. Sponge Bob's laughter fills the room, echoing from the TV and the live audience. "Remember, Plankton," Sponge Bob says, patting his shoulder, "no strenuous activity." Plankton's cheeks burn with embarrassment as the video plays on, capturing his every awkward moment. He watches as he falls asleep against Sponge Bob in the car, his snores filling the small space. The sight of him drooling on Sponge Bob's shoulder makes Karen snort with laughter, and even Sponge Bob can't hold back a giggle. The video shows their arrival at the Chum Bucket, with Plankton's wobbly steps and slurred speech. He tries to protest as Karen helps him into bed, but the pain in his mouth silences him. The memory of his delirious confession hangs in the air, a secret only they know. On the screen, Plankton's eye flutters open as he takes the ice chips from Sponge Bob. His words, though garbled, hold a tenderness that none of them have ever heard from him before. "You're my bestest fwiend," he says, his voice thick with anesthesia. The video ends, and the room falls silent as the three of them watch the TV. Plankton's eye darts back and forth between Sponge Bob and the screen, his face a mask of shock and horror. "I can't believe I said that," he murmurs, his cheeks burning with embarrassment. Sponge Bob's grin is unwavering. "Aw, Plankton, it's okay," he says, his tone light. "It was just the anesthesia talking." Karen wipes a tear from her eye, her laughter subsiding. "You know, Plankton," she says, her voice gentle, "it's kind of sweet to see this side of you." Plankton's eye narrows, his embarrassment giving way to a hint of annoyance. "What side?" He asks, his voice still a bit slurred. "The side where you're not trying to take over the world," Karen says, her tone teasing. Plankton's eye narrows even further. "That was not me," he insists, his voice still weak. "It was... I'm not...not amused," he says, his voice tight. Sponge Bob's smile doesn't fade. "Aw, come on, Plankton," he says, his tone light. "It's not every day you get to see someone be so...so..." He searches for the right word. "Vulnerable!" Karen giggles, patting Plankton's hand. "Don't worry, honey," she says. "It's just between us." Plankton's face relaxes slightly, but he can't shake the feeling of embarrassment. "I just want to sleep," he mumbles, turning away from them and closing his eye. Sponge Bob's expression softens. "Of course," he says, turning off the TV and dimming the lights. "We'll let you rest." Karen leans in to kiss Plankton's forehead. "You're going to be fine, sweetie," she whispers. "Just rest." Sponge Bob nods, his own energy seemingly unaffected by the day's events. "We'll be right outside if you need anything," he says. As they leave the room, Karen whispers to Sponge Bob, "Thanks for being here. You've made this so much easier for him." "It's what best fwends do.." Sponge Bob whispers back, his smile never fading. Despite his protests, Plankton can't help but feel a warmth spread through his chest at the memory of Sponge Bob's care. His usual contempt for the yellow sponge was replaced with a strange sense of... affection? The room falls silent except for the distant sounds of the TV playing in the other room. Plankton's mind races with thoughts of his vulnerable state, and the humiliating video that now exists. He's never felt this exposed, not even in front of his own wife. Sponge Bob's words echo in his head. "It's what best fwends do." He's heard that phrase before, but it's never been directed at him. It's a feeling that's foreign, and it stirs something deep inside him. With a sigh, Plankton turns over, the pain in his jaw a constant reminder of his newfound vulnerability. His thoughts drift to his usual life, filled with schemes and plots to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula. It seems so trivial now, so... unimportant compared to the genuine care he's just experienced. As the minutes tick by, the painkillers kick in, and his thoughts start to drift into a hazy fog. The warmth from the bed and the gentle hum of the TV in the other room lull him into a fitful sleep. He's jolted awake by a knock at the door. "Mr. Krabs is on the line," Sponge Bob calls through the crack, his voice filled with excitement. Plankton groans, his mouth feeling like it's been stuffed with seaweed. "I'll get it," Karen says, leaving the room to answer the call. Sponge Bob lingers in the doorway, his eyes on Plankton. "You okay?" He asks, his expression one of genuine concern. Plankton nods, his hand moving to his mouth. "Yeah, just..." He winces. "Just the mouth." "Oh, I know," Sponge Bob says sympathetically. "Remember, ice for the swelling." He holds up a bag of frozen peas, waving it like a magic wand. "And painkillers." Plankton nods, his hand reaching for the bag of peas. "Thank you," he says, his voice a mere whisper. The cold feels good against his swollen jaw, and he lets out a content sigh. Sponge Bob watches him for a moment before speaking. "Hey, Plankton," he says, his voice serious. "If you ever need anything, you know you can count on me, right?" Plankton's eye widens slightly. "Yeah," he mumbles, his mouth still numb. "Thank you, Sponge Bob." It's a rare moment of genuine appreciation from the tiny villain, and Sponge Bob feels his heart swell. The phone conversation outside is a mix of Karen's soothing tones and Mr. Krabs' loud, concerned squawks. Plankton's thoughts drift to the Krabby Patty, his lifelong obsession. He's always seen Sponge Bob as a nuisance, a constant thorn in his side, but now, in his weakened state, he can't help but feel a strange kinship with the sponge who has been there for him today. The door creaks open, and Karen peeks in, a worried look on her face. "Mr. Krabs wants to FaceTime you, Plankton," she says gently. Plankton nods, his eye half-open. "Okay," he says, his voice muffled by the bag of peas, which he removes so as to look strong in front of his business rival. Karen hands him the phone with a knowing smile, and Plankton takes it with a nod of thanks. His eye narrows as Mr. Krabs' face fills the screen, the crab's eyes bulging with a mix of curiosity and concern. "Plankton! What happened?" Mr. Krabs bellowed, his voice piercing through the speaker. Plankton cleared his throat, trying to sound as intimidating as possible. "Just a little... dental procedure," he said, his voice a mix of pride and pain. Mr. Krabs' expression softened, his eyes narrowing in concern. "You okay, little buddy?" He asked, his tone surprisingly gentle. Plankton rolled his eye, trying to maintain his usual bravado. "Never better," he lied, his voice strained. "Just a few wisdom teeth out, no big deal." Mr. Krabs' face scrunched up in a rare display of empathy. "Ouch! That's gotta sting like a jellyfish," he said. "I remember when in the navy, I had to have me wisdom teeth pulled... all they gave us was a pebble to bite on for pain while they used tweezers, wide awake and felt it as I watched them work on me! What about you, did you get pain killers to numb or..." Sponge Bob nodded from the background, eager to contribute. "Yes, sir! He went to slumber party land!" He exclaimed, his hands mimicking a sleeping pose. Mr. Krabs' expression shifted from concern to confusion. "What are you blabbering about, SpongeBob?" He asked, his eyes flicking between the screen and Plankton's now flabbergasted face. "Oh he just means we're having a sleepover tonight!" Plankton lies. Mr. Krabs' face relaxes a bit, but his confusion remains. "A sleepover?" He repeats. Spongebob laughs. "No, Mr. Krabs, Plankton actually was sleeping like a baby. I've never seen him snore or drool so much!" Plankton's cheek's flush with embarrassment. "I did no such thing," he hissed to Sponge Bob. "Well, you were out of it, so you don't remember," SpongeBob says as Mr. Krabs smiles with curiosity. Mr. Krabs nods, his curiosity piqued. "Out of it, you say?" He says, his eyes glinting. "I'm gonna pretend I've a lunch to go to," Plankton says quickly, his cheeks flushing even more. "Oops; I've a lunch to go to. Bye!" He hangs up. "Bullet dodged." Karen walks in with a tray of soup and crackers. "Some food for you, dear," she says, setting it on his nightstand. Plankton nods gratefully, his eye still glued to the phone. "Thanks, Karen," he says, his voice still a bit slurred. "But I've got to get back to the lab," he insists, trying to sit up again. The pain stops him, and he lets out a low groan. "Not so fast," Karen says, placing a firm hand on his shoulder. "Doctor's orders. You need to rest and recover." Sponge Bob nods in agreement, his eyes wide with concern. "Yeah, Plankton," he says. "You've gotta take it easy for a bit." Plankton's face contorts into a scowl. "Fine," he grumbles, collapsing back onto the pillows. "But just for a little while." He actually wanted to, deep down. Karen nods, a knowing smile playing on her lips. "That's the spirit," she says, placing the soup and crackers within his reach. "Now, we'll let you get some rest. The food's right here." The room falls quiet once more, and Plankton's eye closes again. A few minutes later, they hear a knock at the door, and Sponge Bob jumps up. "I'll get it!" He whispers to Karen, his enthusiasm bubbling over. Karen nods, a hint of amusement in her voice. "Just make sure not to wake him up." Sponge Bob tiptoes out of the room, his spongy steps barely making a sound. Plankton's antennae twitches in his sleep, but he remains oblivious to the world around him. Sponge Bob opens the door, and Mr. Krabs waddles in, his eyes wide with curiosity. "Is he okay?" He asks, peering into the bedroom. "He's just resting," Karen whispers, leading Mr. Krabs into the room. "The surgery went well, but he's still in a bit of pain." Mr. Krabs nods solemnly, his usual stern expression replaced with a look of genuine concern. He tiptoes closer to the bed, peering down at his rival. Plankton's chest rises and falls in a deep, rhythmic pattern, his face peaceful in sleep. Despite their long-standing feud, Mr. Krabs can't help but feel a twinge of pity for Plankton as he snores softly. "They had to remove all four at once. We've a video too." Mr. Krabs' eyes bulge. "Video?!" In his sleep, Plankton stirs slightly, murmuring incoherently. Karen's eyes widen, and she quickly shushes them. Plankton's snores fill the air again. Sponge Bob nods, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Yep! It's a real knee-slapper!" He says, his voice a hushed whisper as they step out the door. Sponge Bob and Mr. Krabs exchange a look, and Sponge Bob raises his eyebrows. "Should we play it?" He whispers, holding up his phone. Mr. Krabs nods, his curiosity getting the better of him. "Show me," he whispers, leaning in. Sponge Bob grins and pulls out his phone, swiping through the videos. "Here it is," he says, pressing play. The video starts with Plankton lying in the hospital bed, mouth agape and drooling. The camera wobbles slightly as Sponge Bob giggles, trying to keep the shot steady. "Look, Mr. Krabs," Sponge Bob whispers, his eyes glued to the screen. "Here's where he thinks he's a teapot!" Mr. Krabs' laugh echoes through the room as Plankton's slurred words fill their ears. "I'm a wittle tea pot!" Later, when Plankton wakes up, Mr. Krabs has just seen the entire video. Plankton decides to eavesdrop on their conversation about. With the door cracked open just enough to hear, Plankton listens to the two of them laugh over his misfortune. Anger bubbles up inside him, and he grips the bag of peas tighter, trying to ignore the pain. He's not a wittle tea pot! Mr. Krabs audibly tries stifling his laughter. "Oh, Plankton," he says, wiping a tear from his eye from laughing. Sponge Bob chuckles, his laughter barely contained. "It was like he was trying to win a snoring contest." Karen nods, her eyes glued to the screen. "And when he said 'You're my best fwend'?" She giggles, covering her mouth. "I couldn't believe it!" Mr. Krabs laughs even harder, his whole body shaking. "I never knew he had it in him!" He says, his voice cracking with mirth. Sponge Bob nods, his eyes still glued to the screen. "It was really something else," he says, his voice filled with amusement. Plankton's grip tightens on the peas. "Best fw...?" He whispers to himself. "Look at him, he's so helpless!" Mr. Krabs guffaws. Plankton's antennae shoot up. Through the crack in the door, he sees them huddled around. Mr. Krabs' laughter booms like a foghorn through the quiet room. "Look at him," he says, slapping his knee. "He's like a baby!" Plankton keeps listening to their conversation. "You know what?" Sponge Bob says, his voice muffled by the closed door. "I actually felt bad for him. He was so...so out of it." Mr. Krabs snickers. "I know, right? It's like someone finally took the wind out of his sails. He's a wittle tea pot!" Mr. Krabs exclaims, his voice thick with laughter. Imagine that," he says, his tone mocking. "The great Plankton, reduced to a babbling mess by a simple dental procedure." Sponge Bob sighs. "But he's still Plankton, you know?" Mr. Krabs stops laughing, looking at Sponge Bob with a flicker of confusion. "What do you mean?" Sponge Bob's expression turns thoughtful. "Well, even though he's our enemy, he's still someone who deserves respect and care," he says, his voice earnest. Mr. Krabs looks at him, his eyes narrowing slightly. "You're right," he says, his voice still filled with mirth. "But that doesn't mean we can't enjoy a good laugh at his expense!" He starts to mimic Plankton's slurred speech, his own voice high and whiny. "I'm a wittle tea pot, Sponge Bob!" He says, wobbling his legs like he's about to topple over. Sponge Bob giggles, but his laughter fades as he watches Mr. Krabs' performance. "Mr. Krabs," he says, his voice a little softer. "Maybe we should go easy on him. He's not feeling well." Mr. Krabs waves a dismissive claw. "Ah, Sponge Bob," he says, his voice still filled with laughter. "He'll be fine. It's just a little fun at his expense." But the laughter in the room feels hollow to Plankton, lying in his bed. He feels a strange mix of anger and sadness, the words "wittle tea pot" echoing in his mind. It's one thing to be the butt of their jokes when he's at full strength, but now? When he's at his weakest? It stings more than the surgery ever did. He hears the door creak open and pretends to be asleep, not wanting to face them. But the footsteps approach his bed. "How's the big bad Plankton?" Mr. Krabs says, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Feeling like a wittle baby?" Plankton's antennae twitch with irritation. "Mr. Krabs, that's enough," SpongeBob's voice is firm, but Mr. Krabs just chuckles. "What? He's just a wittle tea pot," Mr. Krabs says, his laughter bouncing off the walls of the small room. "Look at him, sweeping wike a baby," he adds, poking Plankton's swollen cheek playfully. He just only squeezes his eye shut more tightly in pain. Sponge Bob winces, his laughter dying down. "Mr. Krabs, maybe we should..." He starts, but his words are cut off by another round of Mr. Krabs' laughter. Mr. Krabs doesn't seem to notice the shift in tone. "Look at him, all snuggled up with his ice pack," he says, poking Plankton again. "It's like he's made a new fwiend!" Sponge Bob's smile falters, and he shoots Mr. Krabs a look. "Mr. Krabs," he says, a hint of warning in his voice. But Mr. Krabs is on a roll, his laughter bouncing off the walls like a yo-yo. "And remember when he called you his best fw...fw...fw..." He stammers, unable to hold back his giggles. Sponge Bob's expression turns serious, his eyes meeting Karen's over Mr. Krabs' shoulder. She nods almost imperceptibly, and Sponge Bob knows what she's thinking. It's time to put an end to this. He steps in front of Mr. Krabs, blocking his view of the bed. "Mr. Krabs," he says, his voice firm. "I think we've had enough fun for now." Mr. Krabs' laughter trails off, his eyes narrowing at Sponge Bob's sudden seriousness. "What's gotten into you?" He asks, his tone still playful. But Sponge Bob doesn't budge. "He's healing from wisdom tooth removal, Mr. Krabs," he says, his voice firm. "And we need to be there for him." Mr. Krabs' claw hovers in the air, the playfulness draining from his face. "But... but he's Plankton!" He sputters. "He's also in pain," Karen says firmly, placing a hand on Mr. Krabs' shoulder. "And we need to respect that." Mr. Krabs looks at Plankton, who's still feigned sleep. "Come on, Mr. Krabs," Sponge Bob says, his voice a gentle reminder. "Let's let him rest." But Mr. Krabs's laughter turns into a cackle. "Look at him, he's so pitiful," Mr. Krabs says, his laugh turning into a snicker. He pokes Plankton's cheek again, but harder, not noticing the shift in the room's atmosphere. But Plankton's had enough and starts coughing, then Mr. Krabs' eyes widen in horror as he sees a drop of blood seep through the sutures. "Oh no, I didn't mean to..." Mr. Krabs starts to apologize, his voice trailing off as he realizes the gravity of the situation. Sponge Bob and Karen rush to Plankton's side, their laughter replaced with worry. "Plankton, are you okay?" Sponge Bob asks, his hand on Plankton's shoulder. Plankton's eye snaps open, glaring at Mr. Krabs. "What have you done?" He hisses through gritted teeth, his voice strained with pain. Mr. Krabs recoils, his expression a mix of shock and guilt. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." Karen quickly assesses the situation, her professional instincts kicking in. "It's okay, Plankton," she says calmly, her hand on his forehead to check his temperature. "It's normal for a little bleeding after a surgery like this, but Mr. Krabs..." Mr. Krabs' face pales at the sight of blood. "I didn't know!" He stammers, looking genuinely concerned. "I'm sorry!" She turns her attention back to Plankton, her eyes assessing the damage. "Let's get some gauze on that," she says, her voice calm and steady. She moves with the confidence of someone who's seen it all before. Sponge Bob nods, his smile replaced with a look of concern. He watches as Karen carefully places a piece of gauze over the bleeding socket, pressing it gently but firmly. The pressure sends a shock of pain through Plankton's body, and he flinches. "Easy, easy," she soothes, her hand steady as she holds the gauze in place. "Just keep it here for a bit." The pain is intense, but he refuses to let Krabs see just how much it's getting to him. Mr. Krabs, now visibly distressed, steps back, his claw over his mouth. "Oh, Plankton, I didn't mean to..." His voice trails off as he realizes he's gone too far. Plankton's eye narrows as he looks at Mr. Krabs, the pain momentarily forgotten. "You've made your point, Krabs," he says, his voice still muffled by the gauze. "I'm weak, you win." Mr. Krabs' expression shifts from amusement to shock, then to something else, something Plankton can't quite identify. It's almost... remorse? "Plankton," he says, his voice serious. "I didn't mean to..." But Plankton cuts him off, his voice still muffled by the gauze. "It's fine, Krabs," he says, his tone surprisingly calm. "Just go." Mr. Krabs nods, his laughter forgotten. "I'm sorry," he says, his eyes meeting Plankton's. "I'll..." But Plankton's already turned away, his eye closing again. "It's fine," he mumbles, his voice barely above a whisper. Mr. Krabs stands there for a moment, his claw hovering in the air, before he nods, his expression unreadable. "Take care of him," he says to Sponge Bob and Karen before shuffling out of the room, his laughter gone. Sponge Bob looks at Karen, his eyes wide with shock. "Is he okay?" He asks, his voice filled with worry. Karen nods, her professional demeanor unwavering. "It's normal post-op bleeding," she says, her voice calm. "But let's keep an eye on it." Sponge Bob nods, his laughter replaced with a look of genuine concern. He watches as Karen continues to care for Plankton, his thoughts racing. What had started as a day of fun and games had turned serious so quickly. He couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt for not stopping Mr. Krabs sooner. Karen's eyes meet his, and she gives him a small nod of understanding. "Let's get him comfortable," she says, her voice firm but kind. Together, they help Plankton sit up, propping extra pillows behind him to support his head. Sponge Bob's heart squeezes. "Is there anything else we can do?" He asks, his voice filled with genuine concern. "Just make sure he gets plenty of rest," Karen instructs, her eyes never leaving her patient. "And keep the gauze in place for a bit longer." Sponge Bob nods solemnly, his usual cheeriness now replaced with a sense of responsibility. "I will," he promises, his eyes never leaving Plankton's face. Plankton's eye opens a crack, watching Sponge Bob with a newfound appreciation. Despite their rivalry, there's something comforting about the sponge's presence. "Thank you," he says, his voice still muffled by the gauze. Sponge Bob nods, his smile tentative. "It's what friends do, Plankton," he says, his voice gentle.
