Synopsis

Sandy heads home from the Nut Barn with a supply of nuts, when she runs into an incomplete marble structure and cracks her helmet. She runs home and takes out her backup helmet, which slips out of her grip from the nut dust. She calls for a new helmet, but they are out and will take six to eight weeks to deliver. Sandy is stuck inside and quickly exhausts all the things she likes to do within an hour.

Sandy sending out a drone.

She is driven insane by being alone and calls her friends, but they are all busy. She decides to visit them using remote security drones. However, Mrs. Puff, Larry, and Mr. Krabs are all doing boring things. Her drone then crashes into the marble structure, which has been fully built by Plankton. She moves closer, but Plankton hits the drone away. She calls SpongeBob, but he is out exploring for mustard mines. She calls Patrick, who agrees and comes to her house. With a camera taped to his head, he goes back to the statue and searches for clues. While Plankton is away, Patrick eats his lunch, then finds a box of plutonium.

Plankton notices Patrick is spying on him.

Sandy fears that Plankton is building an atomic weapon, which is pointed at the Krusty Krab. In preparation, she uses her own laser and aims it at the statue. Plankton sees Patrick and prepares to reveal his invention, which is simply a billboard for his restaurant. Just then, Sandy's laser hits the billboard, making it smash the Krusty Krab. While it is not Plankton's plan, he is satisfied with it anyways.

In the meantime, Sandy holds the Krusty Krab in her dome. Just after her new helmet arrives, it is crushed by a new Krusty Krab delivery. Realizing she will need to stay inside even longer, Sandy loses her sanity.
