As the main iCarly trio plot continues, Carly and Sam are separated and they do iCarly through "dual location webcasting." The web cast is awful due to the radios poor reception and the girls' unenthusiastic response to their scripted sketch. In school, Carly and Sam continue to disagree, even putting Freddie in the middle of their argument in an attempt to gain leverage over the other. The girls have a near-death experience when they again fight over who should first use the reserved spots outside the Bushwell Plaza building (they shared the same idea to make a video on a window washer's platform). After Sam accidentally hits a button to lower the scaffold, it breaks unexpectedly,and Carly slips off, forcing her to grab onto a pole for dear life. The girls put their differences aside, and Sam saves Carly from falling to her death. When Spencer arrives on the scene, he drops the rope, inadvertently knocking Sam over and almost falling off the scaffold. Carly pulls her up, they tie themselves together, and are pulled up by Spencer, Freddie, Fleck and Dave. The girls, realizing what

could've happened, cry about their mistake and they immediately become friends again. Fleck and Dave do the same, and Freddie and Spencer hugged as well. Then, the iCarly trio, with Fleck, Dave, Spencer and Gibby, make a fake-horror trailer for ahurricane disaster movie called, "The Blowing."

Sub-Plot

Spencer becomes obsessed with winning a boat, but is unable to find a holding place for it after he wins it. He decides to keep it in a parking lot, and Gibby asks to join him on his new boat. Soon, a man voices his displeasure with these conditions, as the boat takes up his parking space, and he enlists the aid of his baseball team, the Pirates, to kick Spencer and Gibby out of the boat. They party on Spencer's boat, and he plots revenge on them, using watermelons and a giant slingshot. With Gibby's help, Spencer is successful in driving the Pirates out of his boat so that he can reclaim it.

Trivia

• During the webshow and Carly and Sam's fight, when Carly has had enough, she says she wants to 'end it', meaning end iCarly (Freddie thinks she just means end the webshow). Freddie responds by saying, "Come on, you guys have never stopped in the middle of a webshow before." However, when Carly and Sam were fighting before in iDon't Want to Fight and doing a webshow, Sam walks out and Carly follows, so they have actually stopped in the middle of a webshow before.
• While various episodes feature the characters in peril to a certain extent, iQuit iCarly is the first episode that has any character in a near-death experience, not counting the episode, iWanna Stay With Spencer, with Spencer's fan of hammers (depending on the angle of the hammer flying, it might have just severely injured Carly). The second is iSaved Your Life, although Freddie's injury was not shown on screen.
• In reality, the platform would've collapsed completely before Spencer had time to pull the up. Carly and Sam were extremely lucky.
• Spencer calling the baseball players "Pirates" is a reference to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
• The pink outfit that Carly wears in this episode is the same one she wore in the season three opening credits.
• According to Dan Schneider's Twitter, this episode was previously called "iFleck & Dave". The name is used in scheduling on the Nickelodeon Website for unknown reasons.
• Two other alternate titles were, "iDiscover Fleck & Dave" and "iSplit Up".
• This is the second TV movie, after iGo To Japan to have more than one villain (The Pirates, who are considered to be the movie's antagonists).
• While on-set preparing, Dan Schneider and Jerry Trainor pulled a prank on Miranda Cosgrove; it can be seen on Schneider's YouTube channel, DanWarp.

• During the trailer for The Blowing, the fire alarm can be heard in a brief scene and sounds the same as in iWanna Stay With Spencer.
• The newspaper hitting Miranda Cosgrove in the face during "The Blowing" was an accident; a blooper in iBloop shows her breaking down laughing afterwards. However, the scene was realistic enough for the editors to keep it in.
• The episode premiered to 8.85 million viewers, making it Nickelodeon's biggest audience of 2009. The 11 AM repeat the following day had 4.39 million viewers, and the 7 PM repeat that same night had 4.59 million.
• In the episode, the show that Spencer is watching asks something about Joe Catania, who is the producer of iCarly.
• "Fleck" is the nickname of Matt Fleckenstein, one of the iCarly writers backstage.
• Carly, Sam, and Freddie all cry in this episode.
• The episode features a large Cam friendship plot.
• There are two scenes from this episode that didn't make it in the final script. The scenes were shown in the promos, but were cut from the final script:
  • A group of girls at school walk up to Carly and Sam. One of the girls asks, "Are you really not doing iCarly anymore?", and Carly responds, "No, we're not." Then the girl screams to the other girls, "I told you guys it was true!"
  • Freddie was asked by Carly and Sam whose side he is on. Freddie couldn't decide, so he randomly said, "Oh look, a freckle on my wrist."
  • The episode would have been reasonable to be the iCarly finale since Nickelodeon series last around 60 episodes.

Goofs

• Before Fleck and Dave's video is shown (just before Freddie says "Playback"), you can hear a laugh in the background.
• While Carly, Sam, Fleck and Dave are sitting in the Groovy Smoothie and T-Bo is explaining he put jalapeño juice in the smoothies, we see another waiter place twoglasses of water on the table then walk away - yet in the next shot all four are holding glasses of water.
• At one point, Sam says to Carly, "More appreciation? You already named the show after yourself." However, it was actually Freddie who came up with the name iCarly in "iPilot". (The fact that in "iWill Date Freddie" Sam even mentions Freddie is responsible for the name worsens this goof).
