"this doesn't change what she did in iCan't Take It..." "Carly was the reason, Carly "spilled the beans," intended to end the romantic relationship of her two best friends" To me, this looks like accusing Carly. And Carly did this only after taking extreme pressure from all the characters who were troubled because of Sam and Freddie dating and what she herself had suffered from them in the previous episode. Also, throwing the above starting with "To be fair...", it's like pointing the finger to Carly, justifying all the negativity against her- which I attack to in my original comment.

What Carly did was preventing Freddie breaking up with Sam. This is we (me and other people who defend Carly from baseless and slanderous attacks) pretending that Carly did something noble? Well, it is noble. Because, unlike Sam in iSaved Your Life, Carly was overwhelmed with guilt (something not new to Carly, as we saw in iPromise Not to Tell) and as a true friend, put her friends happiness above her.

I'm not claiming that Carly is a flawless, perfect character and a permanent good-doer. Nobody's perfect. Everyone has flaws and makes mistakes. The difference is, some acknowledge their mistakes and try to "fix" them or repent for them (I don't necessarily mean that what Carly did was a mistake- Freddie at least had the right to know, don't you think?).

Well, whether Freddie would break up with Sam or not had Carly not intervened, I'll provide some dialogue from the episode:

Carly: Freddie, you can't break up with Sam over this

(...)

She did it before she liked you

Freddie: She ruined my chance...

(...)

Carly: Look, having Sam in your life ... tons of fun."

Freddie: I know, but she...

Freddie arguing with Carly about not breaking up with Sam. Pretty self-explanatory to me.

Delaying the inevitable doesn't mean just postponing something that is going to happen eventually, no matter what? If I am correct, Sam and Freddie did break up eventually while in iCan't Take It, this didn't happen though it was more than close. In iLove You, they tried sharing interests and hobbies in a last ditch effort to keep their problematic relationship going. It didn't work out (not surprisingly, I'd say) and thus... they broke up. It was one-way. Anyway, I'm not going to say something else about this part, it's pretty much expended.
