Spongebob is brushing Gary when he hears a strange noise. He goes outside to investigate only to find out that its Squidward breathing. Squidward then tells Spongebob that he will pay him five dollars if he goes away. However Spongebob doesn't go away so Squidward begins walking away. He then finds out that Spongebob is following him so he starts running and he jumps into his boat. However he can't find the key and Spongebob arrives at Squidward's boat. Squidward then becomes furious, only to find out that Spongebob wanted to give him his keys. Squidward then drives away and crashes into a stop sign. He then gets pulled over by a cop, telling him that he needs to do boating school. Then the scene changes to Squidward walking up to Mrs.Puffs boating school and when he opens the door, he see's Spongebob and then starts to cry. During class, Squidward is forced to sit next to Spongebob. Then Mrs. Puff asks Squidward why he is in-roll in Boating School, so he tells everyone. Then Mrs.Puff tells Spongebob to illustrate his side of the story, but Spongebob just draws on the chalkboard a picture with him and Squidward saying "Spongebob And Squidward, Best Boating Buddies Forever". Then it is lunchtime and Squidward tries to avoid Spongebob. He then decides to eat in the bathroom, where he gets beat up. Then he arrives back to class with Spongebob and Mrs.Puff tells him that he has to drive with Spongebob for a test. So they get inside a boat and Spongebob is the driver. However, he drives out of control and ends up n a research lab. There, he, Squidward, and Mrs.Puff shrink and get washed down the drain. Spongebob and Mrs.Puff end up in a water fountain back at Mrs.Puffs boating school, while Squidward ends up in the bathroom and gets beat up again. Then the scene changes to everyone back in class. Mrs.Puff explains that everyone is going to do a test. But when SpongeBob tries to help him, Squidward snaps at him that they weren't "Boating Buddies" and he never wanted helped from him ever again. However Squidward can't do the test because he can't pick up the pencil. So he asks for SpongeBob for help; when the young sponge reminds him of what he said, Squidward denies it, only for his voice to be recorded by another student. Finally, when Squidward admits that he and SpongeBob were "Boating Buddies", SpongeBob cheers. But time runs out and Squidward asks Mrs.Puff what to do. She then says that he needs to come back the next week. Then Squidward finds out that Spongebob also failed the test and he has to come back the next week too. So Squidward screams and the episode ends.
