IDate Sam & Freddie

iDate Sam & Freddie is the fifteenth episode of Season 4 of iCarly. It is also the second episode of the four-episode storyline stemming off of iOMG. The episode received just over 4.1 million views on its premiere date.

Plot
Sam and Freddie start dating. They have Carly settle numerous disagreements between them. She soon becomes annoyed when Sam and Freddie rely on her to play peacemaker. She eventually stands up to them while they're on a dinner date at Pini's and tells them that they need to learn to work things out by themselves. She then gets up and goes, leaving Sam and Freddie unsure and confused about their relationship, also leaving the episode as a cliffhanger.

Meanwhile, Spencer builds a lawn in the Shay's loft, causing Carly to say to Spencer "You see? This is why I don't like to leave the house!", even though Carly admits that it is nice looking at the fake stars Spencer mounted on the ceiling.

Also, Gibby tries to raise a pet dog with Carly, even though she keeps telling him she doesn't want to. He names the dog Sir-Licks-A-Lot.

Carly: What are you guys fighting about?

Sam: Nothin’

Freddie: Mr. Fracs gave me a ‘B’ on my World History paper and I was mad because I thought I deserved an A.

Sam: That’s right, you told me you were mad at Fracs.

Freddie: That didn’t mean I wanted revenge!

Sam: If he’s gonna give you ‘B's’ why shouldn’t I give him bees?

Carly: Wait — what’d you do?

Sam: I filled his car with bees.

Freddie: I don't need you to fight my battles for me.

Sam: [puts her hand on Freddie's cheek and says in a cute voice] Come on baby, you wrote a good paper.

Freddie: I know, but you can't just go around-

Carly: Alright listen, Sam, Freddie should be able to complain about people to you without worrying that you're gonna put them in a hospital!

Sam: [grumbles] I guess...

Carly: And Freddie, even though it's a little extreme to violate a man with bees, you should least appreciate that Sam did it because she cares about you.

Freddie: [sighs] Yeah, you're right. [turns to Sam and smiles] I'm sorry.

Sam: [smiles too] Give Mama some sugar!

Freddie: Yes...

Sam: Well afterwards, when you were laying there…moaning…with blood coming out your ear--''  Freddie: [smiles]'' Yeah...

Sam: I don't know, I thought you looked...kinda cute.

Freddie: Oh, then it was worth the hearing loss.

Sam: Well yeah. [cheers cups with Freddie]

T-Bo: Ahhh! Don't you kids drink from those medium size smoothies! [takes smoothies away from Sam and Freddie].

Sam: T-Bo?

Freddie: What are you doing? [both Sam and Freddie seem confused]

T-Bo: You two are a couple now, so you get to drink from [pulls out a large smoothie from cart] the "love smoothie"!

[Sam and Freddie chuckle as T-bo places the giantic single "love smoothie" on the table].

T-Bo: And its free!

Sam: [laughs and smiles]

Freddie: Thanks Teeb's!

[Both Sam and Freddie are enjoying and drinking their single smoothie together]

T-Bo​: That's $36.

[Sam and Freddie stop drinking and look up at T-Bo immediately]. Freddie: What? You said it was on the house! [pointing to the smoothie].

T-Bo: Oh, the smoothie's free, but that's a 36 dollar cup.

Sam: Pay the man.

Freddie: No! What cup is worth 36 bucks?!

T-Bo: [In a Jamaican accent; while pointing to the love smoothie] That's Jamaican plastic!

Freddie: Forget it.

Sam: I can't believe you're being so cheap!

Freddie: I can't believe you're being so pushy!

T-bo: I can't believe I still don't have my 36 dollars!

Sam: [turns to Freddie] This is not how boyfriends behave!

Freddie: Uh, yes it is!

Sam: Ok, let's go ask Carly what she thinks!

Freddie: Let's do it! [they both get up and leave the Groovie Smoothie]

T-Bo: Wait, Wait! What about my 36 dollars?

Gibby: Carly? I'm coming in, I got a friend. [holds up a puppy]

Carly: Awwww, a puppy?

Gibby: Yeah, isn't he cute?

Carly: Yeah, he's really cute! [touches the puppy]

Gibby: You hear that little guy? Mommy wuvs you!

Carly: Uh, uh, why did you call me his mommy?

Gibby: Well you know, Sam and Freddie are always hanging out together now,

Carly: Yeah?

Gibby: That means you and I are gonna have more time, just the two of us!

Carly: Yeah?

Gibby: So I figured sharing a dog will give us something to talk about!

Carly: Nooooo...

Gibby: I named him Sir Licks-A-Lot. Carly: That's really cute but it's your dog okay? So don't go thinking I'm gonna have to take-- [Gibby holds up the puppy and the puppy licks her nose] Aaaaaw! Sir does lick a lot!

Freddie: [walks in angrily with Sam behind him] Good! Carly's here! Let's ask her.

Sam: After I get some ham.

Carly: What's going on? Freddie: Some things are more important than ham!

Sam: [pauses and glares at Freddie] Don't you ever say that to me.

Carly: You guys are fighting again?

Freddie: Yeah, and we need your help.

Carly: Why do I always have to be the one--

Sam: 'Cause you're fair and balanced!

Carly: [smiles to herself] Oh... okay... what's the problem?

Freddie: T-Bo gave us a gigantic smoothie then tried to make me pay $36 for it!

Sam: And I say a gentleman should happily treat his chick to a smoothie, no matter how enormous!

Freddie: [turns to Sam] For $36 I could buy you a whole ham!

Sam: [looks at Freddie expecting a ham] ... I'm waiting!

Freddie: Sam, I'm not buying you a ham! I said, I could [starts arguing with Sam]

Gibby: Come on! ''[puts his arm around Carly's shoulder] Not in front of our baby.  Carly: [takes Gibby's hand off her shoulder] ''He's not our baby! [to Sam & Freddie] You guys!

Sam & Freddie: What?

Carly: If a guy really likes a girl, and they're dating, I think it's nice for the guy to give an enormous smoothie every now and then.

Sam: [punches her fist in the air] Boom!

Carly: But nice girls don't demand things from guys they're dating.

Freddie: [punches his fist in the air too] Boom! ... [sees Sam's disapproving face, now less enthusiastic] boom.

Carly: [to Sam] So maybe you need to be a little more polite and patient, [to Freddie] and maybe you need to be a little less stingy with your boy wallet.

Freddie: [turns around; looks at Sam] ... I think that's fair.

Sam: ... [smiles] Diddeo. [kisses Freddie]

Freddie: [takes both of Sam's hands and smiles] Let's go get you that ham.

Sam: [smiles lovingly at Freddie and says in a cute voice] Awww, baby.

Freddie: Alright. [he and Sam leave, still holding hands]

Spencer: [OS] AHHWHH! OH MY GOD! [comes into the kitchen from the back door, covered in smoke and ash]

Carly: ... What happened to you?

Spencer: You guys... realize how flammable gasoline is? It's really flammable!

Freddie: [smiles] Hey, how great does Sam's hair look?

Sam: [smiles and puts her hand on his shoulder] He brushed it for me.

Freddie: [picks up a blue hairbrush] With one of these.

Sam: [to Carly] Hey, you're having dinner with us tomorrow night.

Carly: I am?

Freddie: Yeah, [puts his arm around Sam's shoulder] Sam and I love Italian food, so we made a reservation at Pini's.

Gibby: I love Pini's! [others give him a strange look]

Sam: Gibbys are not invited.

Gibby: Then no corn juice for you. [drinking his cup of corn juice]

Carly: Don't you guys wanna go to dinner by yourselves? You know, like, just the two of you?

Sam: Nah, everytime we're alone for an hour, we fight about something.

Freddie: So, we want you to come with us, 'cause you always come up with smarts ways for us to compromise.

Sam: And anyway, have you ever had the lasagna at Pini's?

Carly: No, it's good?

Freddie: Good? [walks to his cart]

Sam: Uh, it is so good that when I die, please bury me naked in a bathtub full of Pini's lasagna!

Carly: [annoyed] I'm just supposed to sit here and wait for you guys to have a fight, so I can settle it?

Sam: [nods as she looks back at Carly] Pretty much!

Freddie: We'd really appreciate that. [nods and goes back to eating]

Sam: [with a mouthful of lasagna] Ohh, what do they put in this lasagna to make it so incredible?!

Freddie: Uh, I don't wanna start an argument, but you might wanna finish chewing before you talk...

Sam: [with a mouthful of lasagna] What is this, "Pick on Puckett" night?

Freddie: [slams his fork down on the table; annoyed] I said I don't wanna start an argument!

Sam: [with a mouthful of lasagna] Well you done it!

Freddie: [looks to Carly] Carly, is it wrong to tell a person that it's not polite to talk with their mouth full of lasagna?

Sam: [looks to Carly and scoffs] Is it wrong for a person to pick on every little thing I do?

Carly: [frustrated as she slams her fork down and, gets up] Yes. And yes! You both should be furious with each other! [walks over to their table and pushes Sam over hard]

Freddie: Well, I wouldn't say I'm furious.

Carly: Well, you should be furious! What guy wants to go on a date and watch a girl go: [mocking Sam's table manners] "Bleh! I'm Sam Puckett! Bleh! Wa-wa-wa."

Sam: [looks hurt, sad, and offended]

Freddie: ...Ew.

Carly: [to Sam] And how can you sit there and listen to that whiny nub go: [mocking Freddie nitpicking at Sam] "Bleh! Too much Parmesan! Bleh! Don't chew with your mouth open! Bleh!" Seriously! Why don't you two just pick up your forks, and use them to jab each other in the eyes?! [slams fork down on the table].

Freddie [looking confused to Carly] Okay, what are you doing? Sam: [looking confused to Carly] You're supposed to be helping solve our problems!

Carly: No, you two should be solving your own problems. Not expecting me to be your 24/7 Couple's Counselor. Paul {random guy who has been pestering Carly}: [walks up next to Carly] I'm also a photographer.

Carly: This close to callin' the cops! [Guy walks away] You think I wanna sit at a table by myself having to fix every stupid little problem you guys have? I could be home right now eating moist chicken with Spencer and the icky chick from the hardware store! If you two can't solve your problems on your own... then... you shouldn't be dating at all. [gets up from the table, and walks away, leaving Sam and Freddie alone; upset and confused, then walks back and grabs their plates] I deserve this lasagna. [walks away again]

Carly: Those stars you put on the ceiling look so cool.

Spencer: Good. 'Cause it wasn't easy getting 'em up there.

Carly: What about that moon?

Spencer: Even harder. That thing weighs like 60 pounds.

Carly: Wow.

Spencer: Yeah. Had to use a bunch of big long screws, and a steel cable to stur—

[Decorative fake moon and stars come crashing down on Spencer and Carly]

Spencer and Carly: [groan]
