Synopsis

In the beginning of the short, 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 the 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 was extremely shallow, as the short ends.

 *On [[the Pilot a Mini-Movie and the Square Shorts]] DVD, this short is known as "Swim Lessons."
-*This is probably a parody of the scene where SpongeBob and Patrick drowned in "[[SpongeGuard on Duty]] as it features both Mr. Krabs/Patrick slowly drowning in the ocean and SpongeBob/Plankton went in the water to save them. The difference though is SpongeBob drowned too in the progress while Plankton was perfectly fine.
