Plot
Carly has been happily dating a boy named Steven Carson, who divides his time between Seattle and Los Angeles because his parents are divorced, for three months. What she doesn't know is that he is also dating Tori Vega when he spends time in Los Angeles. At Hollywood Arts, André is psyched that his uncle sold a house to Kenan Thompson, who allows him to have a "small party" there. Because of Rex tweeting about it, way more people than André expected come (including an irratating guy in a panda bear costume). Kenan Thompson is cool with it, though, because he considers anything less than 500 people a "small" party. After Carly finds a pic of Steven and Tori on TheSlap.com, Sam suspects him of cheating on Carly and the iCarly team decides to go to the party at Kenan Thompson's house to find out the truth. With the help of one of Spencer's ex-girlfriends, a professional make-up artist, they are given heavy prosthetic makeup to help them sneak into the party without being recognized, After Carly sees Tori and Steven kissing, she discusses her course of action with Sam and Freddie when Tori comes in. After telling her about Steven dating both of them, they team up to take revenge on him. With Kenan Thompson's help, they reveal Steven to be a cheater and a liar live on iCarly.

Rex challenges the party guests to rap battles after Robbie wrecks the karaoke machine and defeats everyone, but is eventually beaten by Sam.

Cat has an infection in her throat and uses a headband with a bluetooth speaker and her PearPhone to communicate.

Trina babysits Lane's friend's kids for Lane. She wants to go to the party, so she just takes them with her, but later loses them and Lane finds them asleep by some garbage cans.

Sikowitz, Beck, Jade, and Spencer spend the time in Kenan Thompson's jacuzzi.

At the end, the main cast of both shows sings a mash-up of their theme songs (Leave It All To Me and Make It Shine). The mash-up is titled Leave It All to Shine.

 * This is Dan Schneider's first time combining the entire casts of two series in a single episode since he started writing scripts for television.
 * A promo released on iCarly.com for iGet Pranky featured a blooper from this episode. Jennette McCurdy, Small.pngda Cosgrove and Nathan Kress were filming a scene in which the iCarly gang finds TheSlap.com which is from Hollywood Arts in L.A. However, after the opening line, Jerry Trainor jumped out at them from behind a counter, causing the crew to laugh hysterically and nearly giving Jennette McCurdy a heart attack.20101127193621223.jpg
 * Originally, the love interest for Carly and Tori, Steven was called Kyle and going to be played by Daniel Booko, who played Cort in iHire An Idiot, but Schneider changed it during production.
 * The actor who plays Steven is Cameron. But, only his first name is revealed. It can be seen in the video of Dan; Victorious: Which Cast Member Will You Eat? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyLg7kka5Sk)
 * Avan Jogia stated in a Clevver TV interview that he had to cover up his tatoo for the hot tub scene. But Elizabeth Gillies (the actress who plays Jade) is seen in various episodes of Victorious with a star tatoo on her arm, and on a video on The Slap, Beck Oliver stated that Jade West was getting a new tattoo.
 * Cameron will also be starring in a new episode of Supah Ninjas, playing a guy who steals someone.
 * This episode is not a continuation of iOMG, despite the previous cliffhanger.
 * Much of the footage seen in the previews are from videos from Dan Schneider's YouTube channel.
 * On The Slap website, it says under Fun Facts: "Two things WILL DEFINITELY happen this June: iParty with Victorious will premiere on Nick… and Robbie will be rejected by a female."
 * The episode has been talked about since the month they filmed it (September) but revealed much for the plot.Scene7.jpg
 * This is the second time Spencer drives the iCarly gang to LA, the first time being in iTake on Dingo.

 * A page of 3 pics of the two casts iCarly/Victorious together.

 * When Steven and Tori are watching the iCarly webcast, Carly and Sam are quoting lyrics from "I Will Survive" ("Go on, now go/walk out the door/just turn around now/'cuz you're not welcome anymore"), a song made famous by Gloria Gaynor in 1978 and covered by Cake and Chantay Savage in 1996 and by Tejano superstar Selena (as part of a disco medley) in 1995.
 * The butter-sock from iTake on Dingo returns when Sam recommends using it to defeat Steven. This is the second time it appears.
 * Kenan complains that half the original cast of All That always borrowed money from him; All That was Dan Schneider's first TV series for Nickelodeon, and Kenan Thompson was part of the original cast. Tori herself comments that she used to love that show.
 * Without being moralistic, the plot shows it's important to do the right thing. Dan Schneider says people love it when a group of characters on his shows work together to achieve a common goal. The plot CatsHeadband_iCarly.jpges to mention topics pertinent to teens such as: children of divorce, dating, cheating, and the importance of true friendship.
 * Cat's Speaker headband, some of the radios from Spencer's sculpture and Carly's charm bracelet will be given away as part of a prop giveway by Dan Schneider.
 * One of the people in the audience calls Robbie "Samberg." This is a reference to the running gag in Victorious when people in the show compare the appearance of Andy Samberg to Robbie.
 * Andy Samberg is also referenced when Kenan Thompson states a list of people who tried to borrow money from him.
 * The above is also an indirect reference to Kenan Thompson's work on Saturday Night Live.
 * Spencer apparently dated the make-up artist 6 years before the events of this movie. That was before iCarly even began, and she still hasn't gotten over the break-up.Scene10.jpg
 * One of the songs playing at the party is the same one played during the prank montage in iGet Pranky. It also included songs from iFix a Pop Star, iTwins, Freak the Freak Out, and ones that were briefly heard in Victorious episodes like The Bird Scene and The Birthweek Song. It's by Niki Watkins and titled "The Joke is on You".

 * The term "skunkbag" is used again, which has been said in a few episodes of Dan's shows in the past (like iWill Date Freddie).Scene11.jpg

 * 30 people e-mailed in correct answers to all Seven Questions.
 * This is the second time the title of the episode is introduced. The first time was in iGo to Japan


 * Running gags:
 * Andy Samberg: Someone repeatedly calls Robbie "Andy Samberg." Later, KTrina,jade,and_carly.jpg Thompson mentions that Andy Samberg always borrows money from him.
 * Tori's cheekbones: Freddie finds Tori attractive because of her cheekbones. Kenan Thompson notes that her cheekbones are like "perfect little sugar plums." This is also a running gag in Victorious.
 * Carly correcting Sam


 * Because Nickelodeon could only have a slot for a 1 hours and 30 minute movie, several scenes were removed. These included scenes such as Beck and Jade eating corn dogs and Spencer getting splashed while in the hot tub. These scenes will be restored to the film in an extended edition of the episode that will be released in August.
 * After iPilot, iCarly Saves TV, iSaw Him First and iSaved Your Life, this is the fifth episode to get an extended edition.
 * iParty With Victorious is the second episode (after iSaved Your Life) to be extended by a third of its original length.
 * The episode got 7.316 million viewers
 * "Ducks Playing Poker" is a spoof of C.M. Coolidge's 16 oil paintings of "Dogs Playing Poker."
 * Since Mrs. Benson hasn't had a date since Seinfeld got cancelled, this implies that she divorced Freddie's father sometime in the 1990's, as that's when Freddie was born.
 * Early in the episode, Carly says "Boombah" in a manner similar to when, in an earlier episode, she said "Oongah."
 * When André mentions that he's having a party at Kenan's house, Rex says "What up with dat? What up with dat?" This is part of the theme for a sketch on Saturday Night Live Kenan Thompson is part of.
 * Carl Cortez of 'AssignmentX.com' gave the episode a B- grade.

Goofs

 * Carly's blog says STEVEN but in the second sneak peek, the picture on TheSlap.com says STEPHEN Carson. But in the episode when they see the TheSlap.com is written STEVEN CARSON.
 * Daniella Monet who plays Trina Vega sings in the song "Leave It All To Shine", but Trina (the character) herself has no good vocal abilities whatsoever. Daniella Monet is, in fact, a professional singer.
 * Beck said that nothing scared him, but in "Jade Dumps Beck", he was freaked out when a Rottweiler dog was attacking his dad.
 * In the background you can hear "Give it Up", a song Jade and Cat sing at a karaoke restaurant, but it is the version being sung by Jade and Cat themselves.
 * Unless Sam raided Kenan Thompson's refrigerator for cold butter (which has not been determined - though most likely not, because Kenan had not yet moved in), her butter sock would otherwise be rendered useless because it would have melted by the time she retrieved it from her backpack.
 * When Freddie goes to find more pics of Tori, he finds a picture of her performance from the episode Beggin' on Your Knees. Beggin' on Your Knees had not occured yet since Jade's hair is still brown and this was filmed shortly after the first season, before Jade's hair was dyed black.
 * Trina called André "André". Mostly she calls him, "Andrew" or "Andy" or even sometimes "Tori's friend."
 * In the scene when Carly and Sam are caught texting with their PearPhones, they were holding black, but in the scene change it was blue (same as Victorious Updates).
 * Tori updated her TheSlap status with a blue PearPhone although for the whole movie everyone only has a black PearPhone.
