In "Sandy's Rocket," SpongeBob and Patrick are so enamored by Sandy's claims that she has a rocket ship that they inadvertently break into her treedome to try and see it. After a bit of bickering, the two friends end up sneaking onboard Sandy's rocket ship, which takes off and flies to a mysterious planet. On the planet, they encounter aliens that look strikingly similar to their aquatic friends back in Bikini Bottom. After realizing that the aliens have a similar set-up to their own society, with krabby patty-like burgers and a jellyfish catcher, SpongeBob and Patrick form an instant bond with the aliens. Meanwhile, Sandy realizes that SpongeBob and Patrick have stowed away on her ship, panicking and trying to get them back to Earth. The aliens ultimately provide a ride home for the trio, but when they arrive back home, Sandy gives them a dose of reality and explains that the "aliens" were merely outdated food items that had spoiled during her last mission. The three friends have a laugh and chalk it up to another wild adventure.
In "Squeaky Boots," SpongeBob has a new pair of squeaky boots that quickly become his pride and joy. However, Squidward is immediately annoyed by the squeak and pleads with SpongeBob to remove the boots. The squeak eventually drives Squidward to the point of exhaustion, prompting him to steal the boots and bury them. But when the pirate ghost of a famous bootmaker comes to haunt Squidward, demanding the return of the squeaky boots, things take a spooky turn. Desperate to silence the ghost and put an end to the haunting, Squidward digs up the boots and gives them back to SpongeBob. But even that's not enough to make the squeaking stop - soon, everyone in Bikini Bottom has a pair of squeaky boots and the town devolves into chaos. SpongeBob gets rid of his boots, finally putting an end to the madness.
