The episode starts out when two customers park at the Chum Bucket. Plankton thinks they want to eat there, but they couldn't find parking at the Krusty Krab. Karen then suggests that Plankton should advertise his product. Plankton then hangs a sign that says CHUM IS METABOLIC FUEL! Patrick comes along and tries to read the sign, but his head starts smoking from the strain of trying to understand what the words are. After his head is put out, Patrick then rearranges the letters so the sign reads CHUM IS FUM! The new slogan starts to attract customers. Plankton hires Patrick as his slogan manager. Meanwhile back at the Krusty Krab, Mr. Krabs believes Plankton has stolen the secret formula, and comes up with a plan to steal the formula back. Plankton sees through their disguise and they realize that it was the slogan that brought in the customers, despite the fact the chum tastes awful.Then he goes back to Patrick and sees what he does and allhe does is Chum is Fum n a thound different ways. Plankton then gets mad and cools down cause of Patrick doing a good gob. Later people are getting bored of the slogan, so three days later, Patrick changes it to FUM IS CHUM. This brings back Plankton's customers, much to the upsetment of Mr. Krabs. Business is so large Plankton gets into the resturant magazines and even a hockey teams shows up to eat. Patrick then decides the resign. Plankton then accidentaly insults his customers over the intercom and causes him to get beaten up by a hockey team. Then everyone sees the Krusty Krab's new slogan, KRABBY PATTIES ARE FUM! and everyone returns to the Krusty Krab.
