SpongeBob and Patrick are eating lunch at the Krusty Krab. While eating they start making ugly faces at each other. Mr. Krabs rushes out of his office to see them making faces at each other and tells them to stop. He then tells them a story about a man (Fred Rechid) who wouldn't stop sticking his tongue out. His face got frozen with his tongue out. Then after it got frozen, it falls off. SpongeBob and Patrick are terrified of this story and vow never to make faces again.
Later that day, SpongeBob and Patrick are seen trying hard not to make faces. However, they start smirking
about their attempts at doing this and eventually start laughing so hard their faces start contorting. They then realize that nothing happened to their faces while doing this and that Mr. Krabs was lying. SpongeBob then suggests they really put Mr. Krabs' myth to the test and they go to places in Bikkini Bottom. Then at the Goo Lagoon, Sandy find them, and say they need help.
Later that night, SpongeBob and Patrick are seen in a tent back outside SpongeBob's house making faces a long with a lot of noise. Squidward's eardrums eventually burst and he starts yelling at them to keep it down. SpongeBob then suggests to Patrick that they try sleeping through the night while holding a face. Patrick agrees and they start doing this.
The next day, SpongeBob and Patrick wake up and realize their faces are frozen and both of them can't move their faces. They start screaming and rush to Sandy's house for help. Sandy then starts giving them a face massage. However, this just makes their faces droop down to their chins. SpongeBob then goes to work at the Krusty Krab anyways.
At the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob causes a lot of ruckus as he tries to make Krabby Patties and keep anyone from looking at his face at the same time. However, eventually, Mr. Krabs finds out about SpongeBob's face freeze and face-pulling because Patrick walked into the Krusty Krab with a contorted frozen face. An angry Mr. Krabs then makes a face and it freezes, then Squidward comes in and laughs at them, he laughs so much that his face froze. The episode end with them laughing and Squidward crying.
Trivia/Goofs

When Mr Krabs and Squidward gets frozen faces, they got fangs.
When Mr. Krabs is telling the story about the fish who had his face frozen, he said, "He couldn't open his mouth for months." That would be impossible to survive, because if you couldn't open your mouth for months, you would not be able to eat or drink anything for months. An average person can survive without water for 3–14 days, and without food for 3–8 weeks. Although it is possible to have an IV filled with a milkshake stuck in the troat for eating.
Although this episode was included in the super-spongey-square games special, it has nothing to do with sports or athletics.
