• [The time machine goes back in time and lands behind their younger selves.]
• SpongeBob: Well, it's never too early to start your education, young man! That's why I brought you this. [holds out a miniature spatula for his baby self] Order up, little fella. [Baby SpongeBob starts flipping patties] I'm so proud of him. Okay, your turn, Patrick.
