Synopsis

Young Mr. Krabs and young Plankton are at the beach. Mr. Krabs tells Plankton that he does not know how to swim. However, Plankton reminds Mr. Krabs that nothing can go wrong as long as they use their inner-tubes. Mr. Krabs then accidentally pops his inner-tube with his claw. Plankton jumps inside the inner-tube hole to plug it up, but the air pressure blasts him out. Mr. Krabs screams and starts waving his arms.

After his tube deflates, Mr. Krabs thinks he is swimming, but Plankton tells him he is just standing, as the water is extremely shallow.
