In "What's Eating Patrick?," it is Founders Day. Mr. Krabs is overjoyed. SpongeBob asks why, and he replies that he is excited for the Krabby Patty Eating Contest that will give him a lot of money. A news flash then appears on television. An unbeatable challenger named Oswald McNulty has won every Krabby Patty eating contest, and beaten every single city champion except Bikini Bottom. Things take an even darker turn because the Bikini Bottom champion has retired. Mr. Krabs is devastated by the news, and believes he isn't going to get any revenue until he sees Patrick, who comes in to order 40 Krabby Patties as a light lunch. Mr. Krabs then proposes that Patrick becomes the next Krabby Patty eating champion, and Patrick agrees. Mr. Krabs then begins Patrick's training by making him eat Krabby Patties. The contest is about to start, the crowd is outside of the Krusty Krab and two guards carry Oswald, who is sitting on a chair being lifted by the guards, then the crowd starts booing, including the boy with a broken foot and his father.
The contest is shortly going to start, SpongeBob asks the competitors if they are ready, Patrick says he does not want to do it, SpongeBob says "Well then don't do it, I'm sure Mr. Krabs will understand." then Mr. Krabs hears then gives Patrick a bill, saying that the patties Patrick ate for training, have just become plain eating patties, and Mr. Krabs says if he does the contest he will not have to pay the bill, then Mr. Krabs points to the crowd cheering for Patrick and the boy with a broken foot is in the crowd, saying his foot hurts, Patrick then says he'll do it, for the boy with a broken foot, and then Mr. Krabs tears up the bill. The contest begins, and Oswald is eating the patties already, but Patrick is struggling, and is barely eating any of the patties, Patrick looks in the crowd, seeing the boy with the broken foot cheering Patrick on, Patrick becomes encouraged by that, and then eats a whole entire plate of patties, Oswald starts eating faster, both of them start eating faster, all until they have one last patty to consume to win, but both stop. Oswald falls from his chair. Patrick tells SpongeBob he cannot continue, but SpongeBob reminds Patrick about the taste, then Patrick gets encouraged to eat the last Krabby Patty to win, then points to the boy with a broken foot, and the boy gives Patrick the last patty, Patrick eats the patty, then wins the contest.
