[[File:Allergy Attack! 040.png|thumb|200px|SpongeBob catches a rash.]]
SpongeBob is prepared to cook his one kazillionth Krabby Patty, with a large audience spectating. Perch Perkins narrates the process, although Bubble Bass and Squidward are unenthused. After SpongeBob picks out a patty and puts it on the grill, he breaks out in a rash and sneezes. He tries to work through his allergies to finish the patty, but becomes so badly ill that the patty ends up messy and unsanitary. When he tries to serve it to Bubble Bass, he refuses to eat it, and the crowd leaves. Krabs kicks SpongeBob back home, where he suddenly notices that the rash is gone. He heads back to work, but suddenly swells up with allergies again. Since his allergies only activate when he is in the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs tells him to leave after several attempts to enter the restaurant. SpongeBob tries to say goodbye to a Krabby Patty, he begins to sneeze around it. This makes Squidward believe SpongeBob is allergic to Krabby Patties.

A group of allergists believe SpongeBob's long exposure to Krabby Patties has caused him become allergic to them and want to help, but upon seeing how dangerous their methods are, Sandy interrupts and gives SpongeBob treatment herself. She gives him her giant, bulky diver suit to avoid patty particles. SpongeBob accidentally injures Squidward repeatedly when trying to operate the suit's arms. Krabs notices that SpongeBob is stuck in the suit, and he cannot get out, so he stays in the kitchen. Sandy brings him some of his items from home, including Gary.

[[File:Allergy Attack! 142.png|thumb|200px|All the customers getting allergies.]]
Several days later, SpongeBob has become accustomed to living in his suit. When Squidward serves Krabby Patties to the customers, they suddenly swell up with allergies. Believing they have the allergy to Krabby Patties as well, SpongeBob sucks them all up into his suit to keep them safe, which makes their symptoms disappear. Squidward gets Krabs' attention and they go into the kitchen. When SpongeBob explains the customers were also allergic to Krabby Patties, Mr. Krabs doesn't believe this, but suddenly gets a rash. SpongeBob sucks him into the suit, and the rash is cured.

SpongeBob wants to protect Squidward and tries to get him into the suit. Squidward then runs away, but slips on a Krabby Patty and SpongeBob captures him. Sandy arrives and asks SpongeBob if the customers are okay. Squidward is bothered by the smell and sprays some cologne into the suit, which triggers the allergies of everyone except him. This makes Sandy realize they are truly allergic to [[Squidward's cologne]], not Krabby Patties. Offended, Squidward denies this and sprays more cologne, but this causes everyone inside to swell up more, pushing the suit past capacity and making it burst.

Synopsis

File:Allergy Attack! 040.png
SpongeBob catches a rash.

SpongeBob is prepared to cook his one kazillionth Krabby Patty, with a large audience spectating. Perch Perkins narrates the process, although Bubble Bass and Squidward are unenthused. After SpongeBob picks out a patty and puts it on the grill, he breaks out in a rash and sneezes. He tries to work through his allergies to finish the patty, but becomes so badly ill that the patty ends up messy and unsanitary. When he tries to serve it to Bubble Bass, he refuses to eat it, and the crowd leaves. Krabs kicks SpongeBob back home, where he suddenly notices that the rash is gone. He heads back to work, but suddenly swells up with allergies again. Since his allergies only activate when he is in the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs tells him to leave after several attempts to enter the restaurant. SpongeBob tries to say goodbye to a Krabby Patty, he begins to sneeze around it. This makes Squidward believe SpongeBob is allergic to Krabby Patties.

A group of allergists believe SpongeBob's long exposure to Krabby Patties has caused him become allergic to them and want to help, but upon seeing how dangerous their methods are, Sandy interrupts and gives SpongeBob treatment herself. She gives him her giant, bulky diver suit to avoid patty particles. SpongeBob accidentally injures Squidward repeatedly when trying to operate the suit's arms. Krabs notices that SpongeBob is stuck in the suit, and he cannot get out, so he stays in the kitchen. Sandy brings him some of his items from home, including Gary.

Several days later, SpongeBob has become accustomed to living in his suit. When Squidward serves Krabby Patties to the customers, they suddenly swell up with allergies. Believing they have the allergy to Krabby Patties as well, SpongeBob sucks them all up into his suit to keep them safe, which makes their symptoms disappear.
