Plot

At the Krusty Krab , Mr. Krabs is holding a meeting, saying that Pearl is going to be working at the Krusty Krab during her Summer vacation, has lots of new ideas to help improve profits.Pearl immediately arrives, and Mr. Krabs goes out to greet her. Squidward does not like the idea of being told what to do by a teenager, and he and SpongeBob agree to stand up to her to protect their jobs, but SpongeBob quickly falls through on this, and loves the flamboyant new uniform that Pearl gives them. After exchanging many ideas, Pearl and SpongeBob agree to turn the Krusty Krab into the "Kuddly Krab", and a teen hangout cafe.

The Kuddly Krab quickly becomes a hit, but when SpongeBob is told to make a salad, which he has never heard of, he makes a Krabby Patty and shows it to Pearl. She tells him to take off the buns and the patty, leaving only tomatoes and lettuce. Upon returning to the kitchen, SpongeBob is horrified to see that his stove is gone. Pearl explains to him that Krabby Patties are no longer "hip", and that they now serve only tea and salad. She then gives Squidward the new job of wearing the mascot costume outside, which he rips his costumes off leaving him naked, while two spouses on a car surprised and a police officer making a note and puting it on Squidward as a loincloth.

SpongeBob goes into Mr. Krabs' office to complain, and Mr. Krabs admits that they are indeed causing the restaurant to lose money. He says that Pearl has to be fired, but cannot bring himself to fire his own daughter, and asks SpongeBob to fire her. ("It's okay if she hates you!") When SpongeBob calls Pearl into the kitchen to fire her, Pearl begins to be happy, and explains to him that she was only pretending to like her job and has been trying to get fired from the beginning. However, she cannot let her father know this, and she and SpongeBob stage her being fired. Mr. Krabs hears this from his office, and has a heart attack upon hearing Pearl being fired. After firing Pearl, SpongeBob enters his office to report his success, and sees Mr. Krabs in a coma on the floor. He revives him with a twenty dollar bill, and convinces him that his daughter is happy with her life outside of the family business. However, Mr. Krabs does not know how to get his money back for the Kuddly Krab's decorations, and SpongeBob buys it all for one year's salary.
