Synopsis

In the beginning, Template:Data:Links starts blowing up balloons. SpongeBob blows up so many balloons, that his lungs become exhaled on the floor. He figures he could use help blowing them up. First, he tries using Patrick who is slow at blowing them. Next, he tries Sandy but she can't blow them because of her air helmet. After that, SpongeBob asks Gary if he can help blow up the balloons. However, Gary is scared of this and dashes away. Finally, he calls Squidward on the phone, in which he becomes very angry at SpongeBob for calling him, but SpongeBob thinks he was helping him blow them by putting the balloon on the phone and having it blow by itself.
