In her iCarly dressing room, Jennette and her mother go through her treat-filled gift baskets. The show has been picked up for a full season, and since being on the show, Jennette has learned that she gets a lot of gift baskets. Her mother attributes the success of the new show to Jennette’s character, Sam Puckett, a violent, wisecracking “tomboy.” Her mother picks through the foods Jennette can or cannot eat, and Jennette discovers a gift basket from her co-star, Miranda Cosgrove. Filled with movie theater candy, it also contains a 100-dollar gift card to a movie theater. Jennette is shocked to see a gift card worth that much. Jennette’s mother tells Jennette that Miranda’s character, Carly, isn’t nearly as good as hers. Jennette thinks about how she has never had another child star be kind to her.

Jennette and her mother seek out a “thank you” gift for Miranda at the mall. Jennette’s mother suggests a stuffed panda and a fuzzy journal, and Jennette privately feels anxiety about the gift not meeting Miranda’s standards. Not only was her gift to Jennette expensive, but Miranda seems cool, independent, and interesting on the set of iCarly, and Jennette wants to be her friend.
