SpongeBob notices that his pal Gary is suffering

from slimotosis, which occurs when the shell
develops a nasty slime and gives off a horrible
odor. His friend Patrick tells him that rubbing
seaweed on the shell is the perfect cure, while
Sandy says that drinking Dr. Kelp will be a better
cure. SpongeBob decides to test this cure by
rubbing Gary with seaweed for 1 week and
having him drink Dr. Kelp. After a week of the
treatment, the slime is gone and Garys shell
smells better.
