Plot

Squidward is annoyed by SpongeBob and Patrick, and calls "Bikini Bottom Realty" to arrange for his house to be sold, so that he may move out of Bikini Bottom. He is warned that, if his home is surrounded by bad neighbors, the house may not be sold. Squidward is convinced that Spongebob and Patrick may ruin his chances of selling his house.


Squidward tells Spongebob that it is "opposite day" - and that everyone must act differently to what they usually act. Spongebob belives it, and "informs" Patrick, who forces himself to stop breathing, until Spongebob exclaims, "not that sort of opposite!"


Spongebob demolishes his house, and a shocked Squidward cleans up the debris. SpongeBob, Patrick and Gary then start pretending to be Squidward, as Squidward is acting like Spongebob, and immediately ruin his chances of getting his house sold. A furious Squidward shows them how much he hates them by attempting to run them over with a bulldozer.
