Mr. Krabs is carried to the haunted waters of Dutchman's Triangle, and the other three find themselves stranded on a remote tropical island."
"In order to escape, they must find surf guru Jack Kahuna Laguna. JKL, as he is known, informs them that the only way back to Bikini Bottom is to surf the legendary wave called The Big One, which will arrive in just a matter of days.
