[Balloony and Flower walk up to the Palace of Pranks.]

Balloony: Well, Flower, here it is, the Palace of Pranks, the greatest novelty shop in Bikini Bottom. All the greatest pranksters shop here. This is where i got my gag. [the scene shows a close up of the can of Seanut Brittle.] seanut brittle can.

Flower: Oh, boy, Seanut Brittle. Gimmie! [Flower tries to open the can.]

Balloony: Flower, wait, it's a booby trap, remember?

Flower: Nice try, SquarePants, but it's not gonna work this time. i'm gonna have some of your delicious Seanut Brittle! [opens the can and purple tubes pop out of the can] Where's the Seanut Brittle?

Balloony: Aaaa! Oop, there it is, a small case, case-lightning-bulb.

Flower: Tiny lightning bolt? ok. [taps the lightening bolt on the can.]

[Balloony enters the Palace of Pranks and smells the air.]

Balloony: Ah! [Flower enters the scene] Nothing compares to the smell of cheap plastic novelty items. [an aisle is shown] Pranks, gags, and gross-out toys as far as the eye can see! [walks down an aisle] Isn't it everything i said it would be, Flower?

Flower: [in another aisle] Hey, Seanut Brittle! [purple tubes appear popping above the aisle that Flower is in] Oh, darn it, not again! [Balloony walks behind the gags] Quick! Make sure they're all off! He unlocks the room. Plugs them in.

Flower: bah! Another plan! [Balloony reads from his comic book, munching on a Prickly heat flavored popsicle. An old fish named Frank enters the scene.]

Frank: Good to see you, Balloony. How's my number one customer doing?

Balloony: Great, Frank. This is my friend Flower. He wants to become a prankster, too.

Frank: [walks up to Flower] Well, pleasure to meet you, Flower. [shakes Flower's hand, but Frank has a joy buzzer, so it shocks Flower. Flower screams and sucks on his hand. Frank laughs.] That's your first lesson, son, the granddaddy of all pranks. The joy buzzer.

Flower: i don't get it.

Frank: [holding up one hand] Right, Mr. Jackpot. See you tonight.

Frank: Well, this came in just this morning. [shows a package of gum] Have some gum. [Flower chews the gum but then he screams as his head explodes] Ha! Exploding chewing gum. Only $9.95.

Flower: [His head is gone, leaving a neck bone in the shape of a femur and he talks muffled] i don't get it.

Cannon: [shows Flower some fish] i don't get it either. The fish is huge, and there's a sticker on it that says, dangerously, $99.99. Your security guard, is having a discussion with his accountant. His accountant nods and smiles. Your security guard nods. He then walks behind the desk and beats the guy to death with a bat.

Guy: i. i can't believe this is going on. As he leaves.

Balloony: [takes out a dollar.] What can we get for one dollar?

Frank: One dollar will get you this fake gag dollar-- [takes out a fake dollar] fool your friends into thinking you've got a real dollar.

Balloony: What else have you got? [Frank holds up a whoopee cushion.]

Frank: a whoopee cushion.

Balloony: Nah. [Frank holds up fake vomit.]

Frank: Fake vomit.

Balloony: No. [Part of the counter is covered in real vomit.]

Frank: Real vomit?

Balloony: Eww! Don't you have anything good?
