    It was cool to see how Sam changed the grade of Carly. She was in the principals office and saw the password for the students grades. So she changed Carly's grade because she didn't receive a a plus, because she used the wrong kind of paper.Carly was freaking out because Spencer bought her a big screen TV. She felt guilty all the time. When the principal almost found out they gave him a microwave and Freddie tried to change Carly grade back and take the fall for her. But Sam told the principal she did it. So she got detention. And adjusted her detention time. This episode was one of the best in the 1 st season but still this isn't the best example to do things. In real life you could probably get expelled.moreless

    carly gets a "B" on her paper for history, even though the teacher said it was flawless, he just hated the paper she used. this upsets carly because she wanted an A so she would have all A's. Sam switches her grade to an A and Carly starts to feel guilty. Will the truth about what has happened come out?

    great episode, i thought it was very funny and it had an interesting and entertaining plot, a strong episode from season one that definitely will get an A+ from me as a grade, simply a great episode from the showmoreless

    I loved this episode because it was so exciting & nerve-wracking! I loved the B plot how Spencer says "hobos can't afford cable" Also I love when Carly was going crazy & freaking out. I also loved the end when Sam confesses, she looks so serious. I also liked how she says about the 42 inch TV. I also liked it when Ted & the CIA were over at their house & they gave Ted the microwave. My favorite part is when Carly pretended to faint 100 times. This is one of the best episodes of season 2 & probably the series in my opinion.moreless

    This episode was pretty great. I liked it because it showed something that is really typical Sam. Sam broke into the computer system and changed Carly's and Freddie's and even her own grades. Actually, she did that to help out her friends. And like I said, its typical of Sam to pull off a stunt like that.

    I liked how Carly couldn't handle the pressure and felt that she just HAD to tell. But she deserved that grade anyway. And the quote "hobos can't afford cable" was hilarious. I just think Carly was worrying way to much though. But either way, it was a great episode.moreless

    • At the beginning of the episode where Carly tells Spencer about her report, there are no holes on the side of the paper. Later, when she gets her report back from her teacher, the paper has three holes in it.

    • It is discovered that Carly is in the Honors History class.

    • It is discovered that Principal Franklin's name is Ted.

    • Principal Franklin's login information is: Username- Bigteddy Password- Corncake21

    • In this episode, Spencer asks Carly if she needs a ride to school. However, in the episode, "iPromote Techfoots," Spencer does not have a vehicle.

    • The computers being used in Carly and Freddie's classroom were the previous generation iMac by Apple. The laptop Freddie used to try and change back the grades was a black MacBook, also by Apple. Both computers' Apple logos were covered up by pears, which is used for Mac laptops in most shows produced by Dan Schneider. (iCarly, Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, etc.)

    • When CSA broke into Carly and Spencer's house, they didn't show any form of written legal consent or permission. This makes them breaking in and searching through their things completely illegal and Spencer could sue them.

    • The web show iCarly was done on only 1 scene throughout the episode.
