{{L|''[The video begins to play, showing SpongeBob crying in the Krusty Krab, in a grocery store, at Mrs. Puff's Boating School, in Jellyfish Fields, in the bathroom, and more like near a bus stop for no reason, in a birthday party.]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[in the video]'' Boo! Hoo! Boohoo! Sob! Whimper!}}
Squidward: SpongeBob, will you stop crying?!
{{L|French Narrator|Thousands of tears later...}}
 
{{L|''[SpongeBob continues to watch himself crying in the video.]''}}

{{L|SpongeBob|Wow, guess I do cry a lot. I promise I won't cry anymore.}}
 
{{L|Squidward|Oh, nonsense! I bet you can't go the rest of the day without crying.}}
Squidward: Krabby Patty nothing! (SpongeBob tries to speak, but Squidward interrupts again) Krabby Patty nothing!!! (SpongeBob tries to speak again, but Squidward interrupts him very loudly) KRABBY PATTY NOTHING!!! (he pants, then SpongeBob whimpers with tears) What now?

{{L|SpongeBob|No, I'm still at work.}}
 
{{L|Patrick|How can I help you?}}

{{L|SpongeBob|Do you think that I could go the rest of the day without crying?}}
 
{{L|Patrick|''[with a mouth full with popcorn]'' Well, of course you can.}}
Squidward: Yes!
{{L|SpongeBob|Okay, great, thanks, Patrick.}}
 
{{L|Patrick|Umm... sure. And did you remember to put that package outside where I told you?}}

{{L|SpongeBob|''[chuckles]'' Okay.}}
 
{{L|Patrick|Yeah, talk to you later.}}
SpongeBob: Oh, Squidward, there's no way I cry that much. There's not that many tears in my brain.
{{L|SpongeBob|All right, see ya. ''[hangs up, then walks back to Squidward]'' Okay, it's a bet!}}
 
{{L|Squidward|''[shakes SpongeBob's hand]'' Fine. If you cry one tear before midnight, you have to... ''[thinks]'' Wash my bike, clean out my rain gutters, and do all my yard work for a year!}}
Squidward: Au contraire. (turns on a TV)
{{L|SpongeBob|Sounds fair to me. And if I make it to midnight ''without'' crying, you'll come to a slumber party at my place! Just you and me! ''[Squidward retches and swallows upon hearing this]'' Ooh, what's the matter?}}
 
{{L|Squidward|Um, nothing, I just threw up a little in my mouth. ''[begins talking in his thoughts]'' No need to worry, Squiddy. You've outdone yourself. ''[smirks]'' He'll be crying in ten minutes. ''[laughs out loud. In the evening, he and SpongeBob are now walking home from work]''}}
SpongeBob: What's this?
{{L|SpongeBob|Thanks again for walking home with me, Squidward.}}

{{L|SpongeBob|''[hears this and starts speaking in his thoughts]'' I am not gonna cry... I am not gonna cry... ''[grunts, he speaks out loud]'' I... can... do this!}}
 
{{L|Squidward|''[smugly]'' Do what? ''[sees something and gasps]'' Oh, my! What a lovely sunset. Take a look, SpongeBob. ''[SpongeBob looks at the sunset and gasps]'' Isn't that beautiful?}}
(the video begins to play, showing SpongeBob crying near Squidward, near Mr. Krabs, near two customers eating Krabby Patties, in the bathroom, near two cops outside the Krusty Krab, near a woman with a baby, the baby cries too, near his mirror back his house, at a psychiatrist's office, where the psychiatrist was already here, on top of some coral, Patrick shows up and starts crying too for no reason)

{{L|''[He walks off, and Squidward scoffs in frustration. Later, they both enter SpongeBob's house.]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|Nice of you to drop in, neighbor.}}
SpongeBob: Wow, guess I do cry a lot. I promise I won't cry anymore.
{{L|Squidward|Nice of you to have me, I-- ''[sees something]'' Oh, look, SpongeBob. Gary's sleeping.}}
 
{{L|''[Gary appears on a stack of newspapers sleeping, snoring and meowing.]''}}
Squidward: Oh, nonsense! I bet you can't go the rest of the day without crying.
{{L|SpongeBob|''[with his hands together, up to his mouth]'' Aww. He looks like an angel!}}
 
{{L|Squidward|That is just so adorable. Almost makes you want to cry.}}
SpongeBob: (realizes something) Excuse me a moment. (he walks up to a rotary telephone and dials it, Patrick appears lazily sitting on his coach when his own phone rings)
{{L|''[Gary begins to drool in his sleep.]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|Yeah... ''[snaps out of it]'' No! There shall be ''no'' tears in this house tonight! ''[walks off into the kitchen, singing a song]'' Lalalalala...}}

{{L|SpongeBob|''[teary-eyed at first]'' Oh... ''[immediately grabs another postcard and snaps out of it]'' ...My subscription to Jellyfishing Monthly's expired. Remind me to renew that, will you, Squidward?}}
 
{{L|Squidward|''[with spite]'' No problem.}}
Patrick: How can I help you?
{{L|''[Later on, SpongeBob and Squidward sit on the couch watching the news.]''}}
 
{{L|Anchor Fish|Welcome back to Bikini Bottom News. Our top story tonight: a series of sad tales.}}
SpongeBob: Do you think that I could go the rest of the day without crying?
{{L|Squidward|Ooh, let's turn it up.}}

Patrick: (mouth full with popcorn) Well, of course you can.
{{L|Snail #13|''[stuck on a coral tree branch]'' Meow.}}
 
{{L|''[SpongeBob gasps and gets ready to cry; Squidward watches.]''}}

{{L|Anchor Fish|However, he ''did'' get down.}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[happily while raising his arms]'' Hooray!}}

{{L|Anchor Fish|Coming up, an interview with a manatee who didn't get what he wanted for his birthday.}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[sad again]'' Oh, no!}}
SpongeBob: Yeah, but I left it in a different spot. Just ask Gary, he knows where it is.
{{L|Anchor Fish|And finally, sad news for Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy fans.}}
 
{{L|''[Squidward excitedly raises up the volume.]''}}
Patrick: Oh, yeah. (laughs with his mouth full) Hey, good one, buddy. You almost had me there.
{{L|SpongeBob|''[voice breaks]'' What, what, what?!}}
 
{{L|Anchor Fish|They will only be showing The Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy Show seven times a day instead of eight—}}
SpongeBob: (chuckles) Okay.
{{L|SpongeBob|''[sweats and frantically changes the channel]'' Let's watch something else Squidward, okay?!}}
 
{{L|Squidward|Fine!}}
Patrick: Yeah, talk to you later.
{{L|''[The channel changes to a show where a dad fish is walking out of his house for work while a kid fish plays with a baseball in the yard.]''}}
 
{{L|Kid Fish|Hey, Dad, how about a game of catch? ''[throws the baseball in front of his bored dad]''}}
SpongeBob: All right, see ya. (hangs up, then walks back up to Squidward) Okay, it's a bet.
{{L|Unnamed father|Sorry, son, I'm late for work.}}
 
{{L|Kid Fish|''[disappointingly]'' Okay, Dad. ''[his dad throws the baseball back]''}}
Squidward: (shakes SpongeBob's hand) Fine. If you cry one tear before midnight, you have to...(thinks) Wash my bike, clean out my rain gutters, and do all my yard work for a year.
{{L|Unnamed father|''[tosses his briefcase]'' I guess I can stay for a few throws.}}
 
{{L|Kid Fish|''[teary-eyed]'' I love you, Dad.}}
SpongeBob: Sounds fair to me. And if I make it to midnight without crying, you'll come to a slumber party at my place. Just you and me. (Squidward retches) Ooh, what's the matter?
{{L|Unnamed father|''[teary-eyed]'' I love you, son.}}
 
{{L|''[The show ends with the two happily playing catch. SpongeBob turns the TV off and madly throws it out of his window screaming in anger, then walks back to the couch panting.]''}}
Squidward: Um, nothing, I just threw up a little in my mouth. (begins talking in his thoughts) No need to worry, Squiddy. You've outdone yourself. He'll be crying in ten minutes. (laughs out loud; in the evening, he and SpongeBob are now walking home from work)
{{L|SpongeBob|''[to Squidward]'' You know what they say about that television. Rots the brain.}}
 
{{L|Patrick|''[from outside]'' Hey, thanks for the TV, SpongeBob! ''[carries the broken-up TV set on his head]'' I'm gonna watch it all night! ''[runs into his rock house with it. SpongeBob and Squidward awkwardly stare at each other, Squidward glances at the cuckoo clock, which says 8:41, then speaks in his thoughts]''}}
SpongeBob: Thanks again for walking with me, Squidward.
{{L|Squidward|It's getting late. I'd better bring out the big guns. ''[out loud]'' Oh, SpongeBob.}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|Yes, Squidward?}}
Squidward: There's a first time for everything. (under his breath) Also, I'd like to win this bet as soon as possible. (chuckles devilishly)
{{L|Squidward|What would you say to a little music? ''[pulls out his clarinet]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[gasps happily]'' I'd say... I'll go get some refreshments. ''[walks off]''}}
SpongeBob: (speaking in his thoughts) I am not gonna cry. I am not gonna cry. (straining, he speaks out loud) I can do this.
{{L|Squidward|Don't be long. My secret weapon is waiting. ''[gets out sheet music titled "Hearts & Flowers (or Some Such Sad Song)," then chuckles]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[appears holding a tray of tea]'' You said something, Squidward?}}
Squidward: (smiling) Do what? (sees something and gasps) Oh, my! What a lovely sunset. Take a look, SpongeBob. (SpongeBob looks at the sunset and gasps) Isn't that beautiful?
{{L|Squidward|Oh, I just said, "Relax and enjoy the song."}}
 
{{L|''[Squidward begins playing the such sad song on his clarinet. SpongeBob goes stifled, trying to fight back tears. Squidward strains hard playing the last single note, then pants; SpongeBob resists the entire time.]''}}
SpongeBob: I've never seen such a beautiful underwater sunset.
{{L|SpongeBob|That's a really sad song, Squidward.}}
 
{{L|Squidward|You're not gonna cry though, are you?}}
Squidward: Really tugs the heartstrings, doesn't it?
{{L|SpongeBob|No. ''[Squidward growls. The scallop cuckoo clock then chirps 9:00]'' Time really does fly when you're having fun. Well, I'd better start getting ready for bed. ''[starts to put the tray of tea down]''}}
 
{{L|Squidward|''[nervously]'' Uh, SpongeBob. No-no-no-no, wait!}}
SpongeBob: (gasps quietly in awe) It's... (the Bikini Bottom Choir drives by singing an angelic note, Squidward chuckles as SpongeBob's eyes begin to twinkle and water)
{{L|SpongeBob|Yes, Squidward?}}
 
{{L|Squidward|How about a bedtime story?}}
Squidward: Is that a tear I see?
{{L|SpongeBob|Now you're talking! ''[later in his room, he lays in bed with Squidward]'' Whatcha gonna read me, Squidward?}}
 
{{L|Squidward|Umm... ''[nervously searches through the pages]'' How 'bout The Little Angler Who Got Lost?}}
(the sunset disappears)
{{L|SpongeBob|That sounds like a very sad story.}}
 
{{L|Squidward|Oh, very sad. Umm... "There once was a little angler ''[the page he's reading is actually of the story Jack and Jill]'' who was, uh, little and sad. ''[SpongeBob whimpers]'' One day the little sad angler was walking through the park. ''[SpongeBob begins to chuckle with joy]''}}
SpongeBob: Oh well, sunset's over. (walks off, Squidward scoffs in frustration; later, they both enter SpongeBob's house) Nice of you to drop in, neighbor.
{{L|SpongeBob|Walking...}}
 
{{L|Squidward|But, he was sad, because...because he was lost... he was lost and very sad. And then, he... he started to cry! ''[SpongeBob begins to choke up]'' He cried, and he cried, and he cried even more ''[SpongeBob strains and fights back the tears]'' And he kept crying and crying and crying and crying and... that's right. You can do it.}}
Squidward: Nice of you to have me, I--(sees something) Oh, look SpongeBob. Gary's sleeping.
{{L|SpongeBob|''[struggling not to]'' I'm wondering if it might not be so healthy to hold in all my tears, Squidward.}}
 
{{L|Squidward|You're exactly right, SpongeBob. Let it all out. Don't fight the feel... ''[the second hand on the clock ticks closer to midnight]'' Ten, nine... do it, do it, cry... eight, seven, six, five... come on! ''[SpongeBob resists and groans. The dam inside his brain begins to crack]'' ...four, three, two, one! ''[the dam breaks, and a river of tears rushes out; the clock strikes midnight]'' Midnight! ''[sighs. SpongeBob's body is now wide]'' Well, SpongeBob, it looks like you won the --}}
(Gary appears on a stack of newspapers sleeping and snoring)
{{L|''[SpongeBob's eyes burst with tears, shooting a flood towards Squidward and smacking him against the wall. The tears shoot out the windows, door crack, chimney, and other holes in his house. They spread to Patrick's house, causing an entire waterfall inside.]''}}
 
{{L|Patrick|Wow, what a great show!}}
SpongeBob: (with his hands together, up to his mouth) Aww. He looks like an angel.
{{L|''[The tears flood the Krusty Krab.]''}}
 
{{L|Mr. Krabs|''[standing on his desk, holding a fat stack of money away from the tears]'' Well, at least we're still together, little ones.}}
Squidward: That is just so adorable. Almost makes you want to cry.
{{L|''[The Bikini Bottom Choir drives through the flood holding the angelic note. At SpongeBob's house, the tears continue to spray into Squidward's face, then stop. The cuckoo scallop hits him on the head. Now, SpongeBob and Squidward sit in front of the TV.]''}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[holds out a bowl of popcorn]'' More popcorn, Squidward?}}
(Gary begins to drool in his sleep)
{{L|Squidward|No, no. No, no. Please.}}
 
{{L|SpongeBob|''[eating popcorn]'' Don't be shy now. I made extra. ''[Squidward sniffles and begins to whimper. SpongeBob holds his arms]'' That's all right, let it out. You can cry all you want. ''[rubs his right arm]'' You're among friends here.}}
SpongeBob: Yeah. (snaps out of it) No! There shall be no tears in this house tonight! (walks off into the kitchen) La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la.
{{L|''[Squidward whimpers even harder, then starts bawling hysterically.]''}}
 
(the mail comes in through the mail slot in SpongeBob's door)
 
Squidward: Oh, SpongeBob.
 
SpongeBob: (pouring drinks) Yes?
 
Squidward: Your mail's here. Ooh, oh look, it's a postcard from your dear mother and father so far away.

SpongeBob: Yes, Squidward?
 
Squidward: How about a bedtime story?

(The tears flood the Krusty Krab)
 
Mr. Krabs: (standing on his desk, holding a fat stack of money away from the tears) Well, at least we're still together, little ones.
 
(The Bikini Bottom Choir drives through the flood holding the angelic note; at SpongeBob's house, the tears continue to spray into Squidward's face, then stop, the cuckoo scallop hit him on the head. Now, SpongeBob and Squidward sit in front of the TV)
 
SpongeBob: (holding out a bowl of popcorn) More popcorn, Squidward?
 
Squidward: No, no. No, no. Please.
 
SpongeBob: (eating popcorn) Don't be shy now. I'm made extra. (Squidward begins to cry, SpongeBob rubs his shoulders) That's all right, let it out. You can cry all you want. You're among friends here.
 
(Squidward wails even harder)
