==Synopsis==
The episode begins with SpongeBob trying to do things for Gary, but has trouble, as Gary cannot tell him what he wants. SpongeBob sees that he can buy a chatterbox collar for Gary in a magazine, so he orders one and the package arrives immediately.
[[File:Chatterbox Gary 059.png|thumb|260px|SpongeBob shows Sandy Gary's new collar.]]
SpongeBob starts asking Gary a couple questions now that he can talk, and afterwards shows several of his friends that Gary is able to talk now such as Patrick and Sandy. Sandy then reveals that she has a nut translator and stated that nuts are nutty. However, when SpongeBob shows Gary to Squidward after he is watching a relaxation program (and the person who is in it tells him to answer the door) he mocks Squidward on many of the things he does. Because of this, Squidward goes into SpongeBob's house at night and makes Gary's collar an irritation to SpongeBob so he will remove it from him.
That night when SpongeBob goes to sleep, Squidward takes out Gary's collar and puts on another collar in which he can talk through using a walkie-talkie. SpongeBob is too half-asleep that he doesn't notice the switch. After a while of making SpongeBob do tasks due to Squidward making Gary supposedly ask him for tasks, he stops doing so when SpongeBob has moved his house faraway.
[[File:Chatterbox Gary 144.png|thumb|260px|SpongeBob moves his house.]]
Unfortunately, SpongeBob's house rolls down the hill he put it in, causing it to roll down Bikini Bottom. After a while, SpongeBob's house falls down an extremely steep cliff, making SpongeBob homeless. Back at where SpongeBob's house used to be, SpongeBob is crying immensely, while Squidward is laughing at him for losing his house. Gary finds out that Squidward has caused all of this, and throws his collar into Squidward's mouth as revenge for treating SpongeBob badly. The episode ends with Squidward only being able to meow and getting mauled by worms, while SpongeBob's house rolls back into position. SpongeBob, all this time unaware of Squidward's meddling, assumes Squidward wants a pet of his own to talk to while Gary meows in his collar's voice.
