Shane

Shane is Freddie Benson's "nerd" friend in the Season 2 Premiere "iSaw Him First". At first, Carly and Sam believe he's a nerd because he's is an member of the AV club with Freddie, but when they find out that he's somewhat attractive, they compete for his affection, but things go haywire, resulting in Carly and Sam getting into an argument, and then Shane falls down the elevator and is now afraid to talk to girls with the name "Carly" and "Sam".

Shane is played by James Maslow, who is also known for being in Nickelodeon's new show Big Time Rush.

Since Carly and Sam both saw him first at the exact same time, they decide that whoever kisses him first gets to date him. They both eventually start fighting, and Shane begins to like neither.
