13-year-old Carly Shay (Miranda Cosgrove) is accused of digitally altering a photo of her teacher, Ms. Briggs (Mindy Sterling), even though her best friend, Sam (Jennette McCurdy), is the true culprit. As punishment, she is forced to monitor auditions for the school talent show. Carly decides to bring Sam, as well as her next-door neighbor, Freddie (Nathan Kress), who has a crush on Carly. Freddie brings his tech equipment to videotape the auditions. After the auditions, they write a list of people they want to be in the talent show. However, much to Carly's and Sam's distress, Freddie accidentally uploads a clip of Carly and Sam making fun of Ms. Briggs to SplashFace, which quickly goes viral. While they have the video removed, the girls are flattered by comments complimenting their sense of humor. Carly and Sam give Ms. Briggs a DVD of the auditions, only for her to reveal she saw the video and reject their list of recommended acts. Carly is then inspired to make their own webshow in which they can do whatever they want without people stopping it, and with her brother Spencer's (Jerry Trainor) permission, they redecorate the third floor into a makeshift studio for the webshow, named "iCarly" by Freddie. Their first webcast, featuring many of their favorite acts from the auditions, is a huge success.

However, Principal Franklin informs Carly and Sam that it is illegal to solicit money to kids over the internet, so Sam grudgingly gets a job at the Chilli My Bowl restaurant to earn the money and pay them back. Elsewhere, Spencer tries to impress an attractive single mom by helping her daughter sell fudge balls (similar to Girl Scout cookies), but two rude older teen scouts steal Spencer's place at the market. Spencer comes up with the idea to send fudge balls to every iCarly fan who sent them money as he mentions in a law book it is not illegal to solicit money from kids if they provide a product or service in return. Carly and Freddie then hire someone to give the money they earned to Sam in a tip at the restaurant where she is working. Instead of repaying the money to Carly and Freddie, Sam buys a trampoline for Carly's apartment, which Carly and Freddie enjoy with her.

Carly and Sam warn Freddie that his mom is in love with Lewbert, and, much to Freddie's dismay, he finds that this is true. They devise a plan to break up their romantic relationship by having Freddie fake an injury so Mrs. Benson would pay attention to her "injured" son rather than her relationship with Lewbert. Meanwhile, a pesky, disobedient young boy named Chuck (Ryan Ochoa) plays racquetball in the lobby and Spencer gets Chuck's father to ground him for 2 days. Spencer is, in the meantime, filling in for Lewbert as the doorman. During his shifts, while using an old CB Radio, he upsets two truckers named Porkchop and Sledgehammer. Chuck, looking for revenge, gives the truckers his location through the radio while Spencer leaves his desk, and the truckers arrive just as Lewbert takes his job back.

In the first iCarly movie, the trio learn they have been nominated for an iWeb award and win tickets to attend the award ceremony in Japan. Spencer then trades the three first-class tickets for 5 coach tickets when Mrs. Benson refuses to let Freddie go without her. The five later parachute into Japan out of an unsanitary possum-filled cargo plane after the pilot literally makes them fly "over" Japan. A police officer takes them to their hotel after they land in a barren field. At the hotel, they are visited by Kyoko and Yuki, fellow competitors for the same award. Kyoko and Yuki give Spencer and Mrs. Benson tickets to the hotel spa to get seaweed massages by their cousins, while they take Carly, Sam and Freddie shopping. After confessing they are lost, Kyoko and Yuki pretend to get angry at each other and stage a kung fu fight on the sidewalk. They then strand the trio in the middle of nowhere after giving a phony excuse to leave, while Spencer breaks himself and Mrs. Benson free from being wrapped in seaweed after being abandoned by the cousins. Using a locator chip implanted in Freddie's head, Mrs. Benson and Spencer take a taxi to find the lost trio. They reunite and make it to the ceremony but are apprehended by security. Freddie wires his video camera into the main screen while Carly and Sam try to explain to the security officers what happened by acting, since the guards cannot speak English and the girls cannot speak Japanese. Since Freddie hooked up the camera to the big screen, the audience can see their silly acting. Thanks to Freddie, iCarly wins the award show due to their performance. Kyoko and Yuki are arrested for kidnapping, and the iCarly gang return to America on a fishing boat, having refused to go back on the cargo plane.

The gang finds all different things in the box, including Lewbert's male modeling and old birthday photos. The gang also finds a mysterious DVD, dedicated to Lewbert from a woman named Marta Trundel. The DVD shows Lewbert and Marta dating, which gives the iCarly gang an idea. The group calls Marta and sends her to the main lobby of Bushwell Plaza to surprise Lewbert to make Lewbert happy and to put an end to his bad attitude after getting fed up with it. When he angrily spills a bowl of fruit and shoots flare guns, the iCarly gang soon discovers that Marta caused much to go wrong in Lewbert's life such as Lewbert's personality and gross wart. Lewbert explains that he had run away from her by going on a cruise with her and then he jumped overboard, moved to Seattle, and changed his last name. The next night, Carly invites Marta to her apartment to discuss Lewbert. Carly tells Marta that the gang was wrong to call her, which Marta responds, "You skunkbag!"

When the party is over, she traps Carly, Sam, and Freddie in a basement, thinking that they were angels sent to her to change her life and is worried that she will go back to being a nobody once they leave. To make sure that no one knows what happened to them, she cancels their appearance at Webicon and texts their respective families that everything is going fine. After a few failed attempts to escape, Carly gets an idea to make a coded SOS message for Gibby with the hint "Every fourth (Carly). Word (Freddie). Every fourth (Sam). Word (Freddie)".

Sam once again denies being in love with Brad and, frustrated—as she has to admit to herself that Freddie cannot even imagine her being in love with him and still thinks she hates him due to all the things she herself had done to him in the past years—tells Freddie to leave. However, he instead gives her advice about taking a risk with love. Halfway through Freddie giving Sam advice, Sam kisses Freddie, revealing that he is the one she is in love with, as a shocked Carly watches the scene from inside the school through a window.

Guest star: Justin Prentice as Brad, Kyle Goleman as Screaming Boy, Tim Russ as Principal Franklin (voice), Ben Begley as Food Cart Guy, Ethan Munck as Guppy (in ending credits)

Carly is in a brand new relationship with a boy named Steven. Sam goes online to TheSlap.com and sees Steven with another girl by the name of Tori Vega and tries to inform Carly that Steven is cheating on her, but Carly refuses to believe her unless she has proof, saying "everyone is innocent until proven cheaty". The group, including Gibby, decide to drive down to Los Angeles and crash a party at Kenan Thompson's house that Andre, one of Tori's friends, is holding, via a public invite posted by Rex, the puppet of Robbie, another one of Tori's friends, to find out if Steven is really cheating on Carly. But before they arrive at the party, they get professional disguises for the party in case anyone recognizes the iCarly gang (which would cause major distractions). They stop at the house of Moni, who was Spencer's past girlfriend and is also a celebrity makeup artist. Moni, though still angry at Spencer for backing a car over her, transforms them into different looking people. When many people show up to the party and begin to party recklessly thanks to Rex's post, Andre tries to get some people to calm down and/or leave, as he thought there were only supposed to be a few people at this party, though failing, while getting chased by a mysterious man in a panda suit. Kenan arrives and is surprisingly cool with the party, claiming that there are not enough people at the party. However, he is annoyed at the panda, who has stalked him for years, and agrees to help Andre chase him off his property.

Carly catches Steven with Tori, and she sees him giving Tori the same exact charm bracelet that he gave her and telling her, "it's one of a kind, just like you", which he also had told Carly at the beginning of the episode. Tori then tells Steven that she loves him and Steven says "I love you too" making Carly devastated. Tori finds Carly and her friends at the party, now in their normal looks, where Carly reveals that Steven is cheating with both of them. Carly and Tori, together with Sam, Freddie and Kenan, come together with a plan to expose Steven's bad nature live on iCarly in front of a million people in a small closet where Tori and Steven originally planned to have their 100-day kiss. Steven angrily leaves the closet while the iCarly gang party inside.

The whole time this is happening, other events occur, including Spencer with Jade and Beck, friends of Tori, and one of Tori's teachers, Mr. Sikowitz, having an awkward encounter in a hot tub, Trina, Tori's sister, having trouble babysitting two younger children for a friend while attending the party, and Rex having a freestyle rap battle with random people in the audience, though eventually getting beaten by Sam. The episode then closes with the casts of the two shows singing a mashup of their theme songs, "Leave It All to Shine".

In the meantime, a waiter is insulted when the iCarly gang tease him and sabotages their food, which is accidentally passed to the three friends, who later get sick. At the end of the episode, the iCarly gang has a huge spaghetti taco but first they play Jamaican laser tag. Meanwhile, Gibby marries Baggles (a recurring iCarly character), and he gets a job as a bathroom attendant. At the diner, the gang meet a crazy fan called Heather who goes nuts over seeing them.

Special guest stars: Emma Stone as Heather, John Ducey as Darnell Todd Bosley as the weird waiter.

Notes: This is the only episode in the season where T-Bo doesn't appear.
9410"iRescue Carly"Steve HoeferDan Schneider & Matt FleckensteinOctober 27, 2012 (2012-10-27)5093.3[100]

When Sam's longtime friend, Dana, is released from the juvenile detention facility, Carly really wants to meet her, but Sam does not think it is a good idea. Later on, while they are at Groovy Smoothie, Dana invites Carly to her party at an abandoned house, and Carly could not be any happier, but Sam knows that Dana is up to something. When Carly arrives at the party, she finds herself overwhelmed and frightened at how dangerous it is. Meanwhile, Spencer has some fun with a pair of night-vision goggles that he found. At Dana's party, Freddie and Gibby arrive in order to help Carly, but instead end up getting tied up and tortured. In the end, Sam arrives just in time to rescue them and beats everyone in the party with her butter sock while wearing night vision goggles.

Guest stars: BooG!e as T-Bo
9511"iLost My Head in Vegas"Jerry TrainorDan Schneider & Jake FarrowNovember 3, 2012 (2012-11-03)5083.5[102]

Sam learns that her mother is being held in a Las Vegas jail after she disrupted a Celine Dion concert and her bail is $2,500. The iCarly gang asks Spencer to borrow Socko's RV and drive them to Las Vegas. Spencer tells them to bring anything worth big money to sell for cash at a pawn shop. Eighteen hours later, they arrive at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, where they try to sell a Texas-shaped potato chip (that Chumlee eats), a vintage Pear computer (which blows up when Big Hoss turns it on), and a half-empty bottle of Wahoo Punch that Michelle Obama drank from and autographed. Rick agrees to pay them $2,500 for the bottle, and the gang heads to the jail to bail out Pam. When they get there, they realize they have left Gibby back at the pawn shop with the money. They return to the pawn shop and find that Gibby has been robbed of the money. A Japanese customer offers $10,000 for Gibby's rubber head, but Gibby refuses to sell it. Sam knocks him out and sells the head. Afterwards, they get ready to get to the jail on time but Spencer is taking a shower in the RV.

Special guest stars: Rick Harrison, Corey "Big Hoss" Harrison and Austin "Chumlee" Russell as themselves.[101]

Guest stars: BooG!e as T-Bo

Note: This was the next and final episode to be directed by an actor on the show.
9612"iBust a Thief"Steve HoeferMatt FleckensteinNovember 10, 2012 (2012-11-10)5133.4[103]

After a webcast, Sam notices her laptop is missing. Freddie remotely activates the webcam with the laptop's serial number, and they see an old lady in front of it. After watching her for eleven hours, they figure out where she lives and go to her apartment, breaking down the door. However, once there, they find out that Sam gave them a wrong serial number and now think that Sam's laptop is gone forever. When they get home, Sam goes to the fridge to get food and finds her laptop in a pizza carton. She leaves and takes the carton with her without telling anyone. Meanwhile, Spencer finds his old lunchbox filled with Funk E. Festers tickets, his favorite arcade, he collected when he was ten years old to win a plush dolphin, after he misplaced it. However, when he gets there, he finds out they are worthless since the arcade switched to electronic points. Since adults are not allowed to enter without a child, he takes Guppy with him to get in. After spending the entire day at the arcade, he manages to get the 1,000 points he needs just before it closes and wins his plush dolphin.

Guest stars: Ethan Munck as Guppy, BooG!e as T-Bo and Jean Sincere as Gloria.

Notes: Funk E. Festers is a parody of Chuck E. Cheese's. The animation in the cartoon that was shown in the opening scene parodies South Park.

Final Appearance: Ethan Munck as Guppy
9713"iGoodbye"Steve HoeferDan SchneiderNovember 23, 2012 (2012-11-23)514–5156.4[104]

Carly awaits her father's arrival in Seattle to escort her to the Father-Daughter Air Force Dance, but she gets a message saying he is unable to come. To comfort Carly, Spencer asks to take Carly to the dance, and she accepts. Shortly before the dance, Spencer becomes sick after Lewbert sneezes on him and is unable to escort Carly. Carly is very upset because she's been unable to attend the last four years due to her father's overseas posting, and this is the last year she is eligible to attend. Sam convinces Freddie and Gibby to take Spencer's place, but this just upsets Carly more. Surprisingly, Colonel Shay arrives and escorts Carly to the dance after all. After the dance, Colonel Shay informs everyone that he has to return to his base in Italy, and invites Carly to move with him. Despite Carly's initial reluctance, Carly receives supportive encouragement from everyone and accepts the offer. The gang heads upstairs to the studio to stream their last iCarly webcast together, with Colonel Shay present. Carly and Freddie are alone in the studio and kiss for the last time before she departs and Sam gives Carly the remote from the webshow as a keepsake of their friendship. Elsewhere, Sam and Spencer work together to fix a motorcycle for Socko, but Sam gets to keep it after he no longer needs it, Freddie gets a phone that is twice the size of a regular phone constantly getting teased by everyone for it, and Gibby gets his head stuck in a machine when he gets a new head to make up for the one he lost in Las Vegas. The episode and series concludes with Carly, Sam, Freddie, Spencer, and Gibby all reflecting on the many ups and downs they have shared over the years while Carly watches archived highlights of various iCarly webshows before the plane takes off. Elsewhere, Sam takes her new motorcycle for a ride out of Seattle, leading to the events of Sam & Cat.

Special guest stars: Dan Schneider as Meekalito and David Chisum as Colonel Steven Shay.

Guest stars: Lisa Lillien as Mrs. Benson's friend, Mindy Sterling as Ms. Briggs, Jeremy Rowley as Lewbert, BooG!e as T-Bo, and Mary Scheer as Mrs. Benson.

Notes: This is the series finale. It is a one-hour episode, but was originally planned as two half-hour episodes. It is the third hour-long episode to be produced as two episodes (the 99th and 100th) but broadcast as a single episode. It is the only episode in which Carly and Spencer's father appears. References to the series pilot, "iPilot", include Carly and Sam making fun of Ms. Briggs' "pointy boobs"; a flashback to Carly, Sam, and Freddie brainstorming ideas for their first webcast; and an appearance by Spencer's video camera squirrel sculpture, the last one to catch fire on the show. Before Carly logs into iCarly.com on the airplane, the screen shows Dan Schneider's Twitter page and you can see his tweets. Freddie's phone "Samsun" is a parody of "Samsung".

Continuity: Events in this episode are mentioned by Sam Puckett (Jennette McCurdy) in the first episode of the Nickelodeon show Sam & Cat, also produced by Dan Schneider.
