The seahorses charge without warning, and SpongeBob and Patrick are thrown out of the building into an 11th-century Bikini Bottom.
A group of knights surrounds and imprison them with Squidward's ancestor, Squidly the jester. Eventually, Mr. Krabs' ancestor, King Krabs, orders SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidly to the throne room, where they are to be executed for insulting him with a song. However, Princess Pearl reminds King Krabs of the prophecy that two brave knights will be sent by the king to defeat the evil wizard Planktonamor, who terrorizes the kingdom with his dragon jellyfish.
Moments later, Planktonamor's dragon kidnaps Princess Pearl, and King Krabs begs SpongeBob and Patrick to rescue her, who gladly accept along with Squidly. Soon after, the trio approaches Planktonamor's tower, where an ancestor of Sandy Cheeks known as the Dark Knight blocks them. After a karate duel against SpongeBob, the Dark Knight decides to help the group on their quest. At the top of the tower, the group encounters the dragon, who becomes an ally to them after SpongeBob gives it a Krabby Patty. The dragon destroys Planktonamor, and the group returns to the kingdom to celebrate. Once there, the seahorses become aggressive, tossing SpongeBob and Patrick once again. After waking up, the pair find themselves in present-day at the joust, with SpongeBob believing it was all a dream.
