Plot

Spongebob finds a magazine called "Fancy Living Digest" in his mail, which depicts the lifestyles of the extremely wealthy. Squidward shows up and takes the magazine, which was actually for him, and Spongebob and Patrick ask him how people can get so rich. He explains to SpongeBob and Patrick that they are entrepreneurs who sell things to people. This inspires Spongebob and Patrick to go door-to-door selling chocolate bars to raise money in hopes of achieving the fancy lifestyle.

However, no one initially wants to buy any. The first person they visit goes berserk upon hearing the word "chocolate", and begins chasing them while madly screaming "CHOCOLATE!!!!" He stalks them throughout the episode, appearing and causing them to run away at several points.

Along the way, Spongebob and Patrick are also convinced to purchase candy bar carrying bags by a con artist, who later scams them again, selling them "candy bar bag carrying bags". Eventually, after seeing an advertisement for "Barnacle Chips", Spongebob and Patrick decide to increase the appeal of their product by "stretching" the truth. The first customers they use this tactic on are an old lady and her EXTREMELY old mother. They claim that the chocolate will make one immortal by rubbing it on their skin, which the extremely old mother is delighted by.

The duo continue this strategy, making several absurd promises about the chocolate. Their lies culminate in them dressing in bandages and pretending to be badly injured and in need of an operation. However, the customer they go to is himself in far worse shape than they claim to be, and must sell chocolate to pay his medical bills. Feeling extreme sympathy for the man, Spongebob and Patrick buy a huge amount of chocolate from him with all the money they had just made. However, the man is then revealed to be the same con artist who had scammed them twice before.

Spongebob and Patrick are soon attacked by the insane man, who catches them off guard and makes them fall down and drop their chocolate. He says that he has been trying to catch them all day, and seems intent on killing them before saying that he would simply like to buy all their chocolate, which leaves Spongebob and Patrick speechless. Spongebob and Patrick make a fortune from him, which they use to rent out a fancy restaurant on a double date with the old lady and her mother.
