When Carly Shay and her best friend Sam Puckett improvise comedy at a school talent show audition, tech-savvy Freddie Benson records it and posts it online without informing them. After seeing the girls' strong chemistry and banter, the online audience clamors for more, and thus they decide to create iCarly. The trio find their normal adolescent lives thrown for a loop when they discover that they have become online sensations as their show – which features talent contests, recipes, problem-solving, and random dancing – garners international accolades. Carly lives in Seattle with her adult brother and guardian Spencer and produces the show in a makeshift third-floor studio loft in their apartment. Their father, Steven Shay, is a United States Air Force officer stationed on a submarine and is often mentioned, but is only seen during the series' finale episode, "iGoodbye".

"iSpeed Date"

After spitting in her crush's eye, Carly becomes humiliated and tries to find a new date for a popular school dance. Sam feels for Carly's frustration, and hatches a plan to get her a date. During the webshow, Sam handcuffs Carly to a chair and duct-tapes her mouth shut while asking boys from the Seattle area to apply for Carly's date. When the gang is overwhelmed by the number of boys who show up at the meeting place (Groovy Smoothies), they set up a speed-dating session. Carly then tells Sam that she must ask Gibby to go to the dance if Carly had to go with a random iCarly fanboy. When Sam goes to invite Gibby to the dance, he surprisingly turns her down. She discovers Gibby has a girlfriend, Tasha. When Carly's pick, Austin, keeps interrupting her every time she speaks, she reaches her breaking point by screaming "shut up" at him multiple times and then telling him to "get out of here", which he does. The episode ends when Sam returns to the Groovy Smoothie and sees Carly and Freddie dancing a slow dance. Upon seeing this, she silently leaves unnoticed. Elsewhere, Spencer tries to exercise daily with the help of a mobile phone application. However, the app continuously goes off at random times, to which he eventually gives up and sits on the couch after it tells him to do sit-ups.

"iEnrage Gibby"

When Freddie helps Gibby's girlfriend, Tasha, find a gift for his birthday party in the iCarly studio, Tasha accidentally falls on Freddie. Gibby then walks in and thinks Freddie "macked on" Tasha, so he challenges Freddie to a fight on iCarly. Freddie learns that Gibby is an amazing kickboxer and is being trained by Sam so that they can fight on the webshow. In the end, Freddie shows Gibby a webcam video (that has been watching a peanut butter sandwich mold) which shows Tasha actually falling on Freddie. Upon seeing the video, Gibby apologizes to Freddie, saying, "I feel like a turd." and they become friends again. Elsewhere, Spencer is mistakenly reported dead because of natural causes in the papers, so he capitalizes on the opportunity to sell his art for more money than if he was living. But then he realizes he doesn't want to be dead anymore, because it's boring sitting in the house. He then tries to tell people he's alive. But this changes when an old love interest visits to offer Carly condolences and wishes he was still here. So he apparently exposes himself and says that he is a twin brother named "Sponcer", to which Carly asks "If you had a twin brother, why would his name need to sound similar to yours?"
