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 a guy in a panda bear suit). 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 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 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.

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).

 * 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, Miranda 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.
 * Originally, the love interest for Carly and Tori, Steven was originally 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)Iparty_7.jpg
 * Avan Jogia stated in a Clevver TV interview that he had to cover up his tatoo for the hot tub scene.

 * 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.

 * 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.
 * The buttersock 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.

 * 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.

Goofs

 * Carly's blog says STEVEN but in the second sneak peek, the picture on TheSlap.com says STEPHEN 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.
