==Synopsis==
At the [[Krusty Krab]], Mr. Krabs holds a meeting with his employees, informing them that his daughter Pearl is going to be working at the Krusty Krab during her summer vacation and that she has lots of new ideas to improve the restaurant. Squidward does not like the idea of being told what to do by a teenager, and he and SpongeBob agree to stand up to her to protect their jobs.
Pearl soon arrives and SpongeBob's resolution quickly crumbles, adoring the flamboyant new [[Kuddly Krab uniform|uniform]] Pearl gives them. After exchanging many ideas, Pearl and SpongeBob agree to turn the Krusty Krab into the "[[Kuddly Krab]]," and re-purpose the restaurant into a hip café, all with Mr. Krabs' blessing.
'''Time/Date:'''
Squidward remains the only holdout and shakes the newly designed sign in frustration. Two passersby are disappointed the Krusty Krab is seemingly gone and, thinking Squidward is a woman, ask him where a place to eat is. Enraged, Squidward quits on the spot and rips off his costume.

[[File:Bossy Boots 097.png|thumb|200px|"But where are the Krabby Patties?"]]
The Kuddly Krab quickly becomes a hit with the teenage crowd. SpongeBob is told to make a salad, which he never heard of, so he makes a Krabby Patty and shows it to Pearl. Disgusted, she orders him to take off the buns and the patty, leaving only tomatoes and lettuce. Upon returning to the kitchen, SpongeBob is horrified to see that his grill is gone. Pearl explains to him that [[Krabby Patties]] are no longer "hip," and that they now serve only [[tea]] and [[salad]]. SpongeBob is then given a humiliating mascot costume to wear out front, and this is the final straw for him. He goes to Mr. Krabs' office to complain.
'''Characters Present:'''
Despite putting on a brave face, Mr. Krabs agrees with SpongeBob's complaints and admits that Pearl's renovations are losing them money. Though Mr. Krabs knows that Pearl needs to go, he can't bring himself to fire his own daughter, so he makes SpongeBob be the one to fire her. SpongeBob calls Pearl into the kitchen, dreading what he has to do. Before he can even say anything, however, Pearl breaks down crying and reveals to SpongeBob that she's really been trying to get herself fired since the beginning and hates working at the restaurant, only taking the job and pretending to like it to please her dad and doesn't want to risk disappointing him by quitting. After hearing all this, SpongeBob comes up with a plan to stage Pearl being fired outside of her dad's office.
As Mr. Krabs listens in to the exchange, he debates with himself whether he should allow it to happen. The sight of his empty safe with a spider web finally prompts him to yell to SpongeBob to get on with it, but with the words, "Pearl, you're fired," the strain on Mr. Krabs' heart knocks him out cold. Pearl thanks SpongeBob for letting her go and kisses him on the cheek before dashing off to the mall with her friends.

SpongeBob enters Mr. Krabs' office to report his success, only to find him passed out on the floor. After being revived with a $20 bill, Mr. Krabs laments what's been done to Pearl—but SpongeBob assures his boss that Pearl's fine, claiming that she's off to bigger and better things. While he's glad that the situation is resolved, Mr. Krabs wonders how he'll get his money back for all of Kuddly Krabs' decorations/merchandise. SpongeBob buys all of them, costing him one year's salary, and puts them in his [[SpongeBob SquarePants' house|house]] for his enjoyment, much to Gary's chagrin.

==Plot==
===Errors===
At the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs is holding a meeting. He says that Pearl has lots of new ideas to help improve profits, and is therefore going to work in the Krusty Krab during her summer vacation. Squidward does not like being told what to do by a teenager, and teams up with SpongeBob to protect their jobs. SpongeBob would rather prefer new spatulas, but tolerates Pearl's strange ideas. She issues the employees new pink floral uniforms. She also changes the name to the '[[Kuddly Krab]]', and changes the whole place into a teen hangout (it looks more like a childcare centre though). SpongeBob is told to make a salad, but he has never heard of it and pronounces it wrong. He then makes a Krabby Patty and shows it to Pearl. She tells him to take off the buns and the patty, leaving only tomatoes and lettuce. The menu's changed, and there's only two things: salad and tea. Mr. Krabs tells SpongeBob that the new ideas are actually causing a loss, and Pearl has to be fired. He does not want to do it, so he asks SpongeBob to fire her. ("It's OK if she hates ''you!''") When SpongeBob calls Pearl in the kitchen and is on the brink of firing her, Pearl tells him that she actually wanted to be fired, and she gets fired. However, Mr. Krabs does not know how to get the spent money back. SpongeBob finds a solution to this problem by buying everything in the Krusty Krab (it cost him one year's salary.)
