Synopsis
A crowd of hungry nematodes arrive Bikini Bottom in the middle of the night. They plow through a variety of items, even destroying a boat with the driver still in it. They then make their way to SpongeBob's house. They pull out straws and eat/drink his house. Meanwhile, SpongeBob and Gary are inside, sleeping, as everything starts to shrink. SpongeBob and Gary run outside the house, now reduced to nothing, and see what the nematodes have done.

The next day, after attempting to build a replacement pineapple and failed attempts at sleeping with Squidward and Patrick, SpongeBob finds a small pebble (the only thing left when the nematodes ate/drank his house), and buries it where his house used to be. However, the pebble's actually a seed, and water causes his house to grow back. The house is placed back where it was, crushing Squidward, who was dancing on the remains of SpongeBob's house with joy.
