El argumento gira en torno a Bob Esponja y sus inseparables amigos del mar, como son Patricio y la ardilla Arenita, y otros personajes de la serie en la que se basa, como Calamardo y Don Cangrejo. En esta ocasión Bob Esponja y cía se embarcan en una aventura en la que deberán encontrar una receta robada, lo que llevará a los personajes de Fondo Bikini hasta nuestra dimensión.

"The majority of my 8-mm works were made for the three-minute "Personal Focus" film special put on in Fukuoka. This film is an animation of photographs I had taken on a regular basis as a sort of diary, and was made to have a rough feel to it." - Takashi Ito
Dranem performs "Five O'Clock Tea" for Alice Guy.
"I turned my gaze to the various events in daily life and made this filmic diary in a manner as if confessing my feelings. Of course, since I was making the film, I wanted to depict these feelings and events with tricky techniques. I used various methods to shoot photographs of a relative’s wedding, the landscape I see from window of my house, commemorative travel photographs and the like frame-by-frame." - Takashi Ito
