Plot synopsis
 | This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. (March 2010) |
After agreeing to help a pair of kid comedians, Fleck and Dave, make a video, Carly and Sam must choose sides when the comedians begin to fight when Fleck keeps infuriating Dave's abusive dad much to Dave's dismay (Fleck paints dad's car purple, causing Dave's dad to destroy Dave's laptop with a hammer). The girls were eventually influenced by the comedians' complaints about each other when the girls compared their strained lives with each other to Fleck and Dave's and then begin to fight so badly that Sam quits as both co-host and Carly's friend. When things begin to get worse between the two girls, Fleck and Dave felt responsible and both reconcile their differences to bring Carly and Sam back together. After doing a horrible web cast with a pathetic idea, Carly and Sam fight even more violently on a metal block hanging with ropes outside of the Bushwell Plaza. However, this led to a near-death blunder when Carly and Sam are almost killed and nearly fall to death from the metal block. Meanwhile, Spencer becomes obsessed after winning a boat in a contest but a rich baseball player comes and messes with Spencer about taking his parking spot, eventually, he and his baseball team, The Pirates, take over the boat, so he teams up with Gibby and shoots watermelons at the boat, causing them to leave for good and never come back. Spencer catches sight of Carly and Sam in danger of falling, and aids Freddie, Fleck, and Dave to help the two girls. After the rescue is successful, Carly and Sam cry and become friends again with Fleck and Dave becoming friends again too and Spencer and Freddie also hugging. The movie ends with the gang showing the fans on iCarly the new video they made for a web competition called "The Blowing."
