When he finds that they do not have a tape recorder, he goes inside the box and starts observing their activities to see how they play. He gives up on it and then hears what sounds like a space rocket launching coming from the box and thinks that the two are using a tape recorder to make all the noises, so he goes inside to find out. He watches TV to get his mind off of boxes, only for all the programming to be box-related including a boxing match where literally two boxes are wrestling. Still feeling angry, Squidward kicks his small box across his yard and SpongeBob and Patrick take it. After kicking one of his boxes in frustration, he hears police sirens outside and initially assumes they have come to arrest him for kicking the box, but the sounds turn out to just be coming from SpongeBob and Patrick in their box. Squidward goes back to his house and tries to find a box to do what SpongeBob and Patrick are doing, but is unable to find one big enough.

He opens the box to see if the two are alright, only for them to have just been imagining themselves mountain climbing. When Squidward gets annoyed by the two playing loudly with each other, he kicks the box, only to cause what sounds like an avalanche inside. Squidward drags the TV to his house with SpongeBob's permission, while the other two play Mountain Climbing Adventure in the box. He asks the two why they are playing in the box instead of using the TV, and they say that with imagination, they can do anything they want to do. He is shocked that they ordered such a large TV, only for them to toss the TV into the trash bin and use the box by itself.

The episode starts with Squidward coming outside his house to see a TV getting delivered to SpongeBob and Patrick in a box.
