This year's
Webicon Web Icon Lifetime Achievement Award recipient:
Carly Shay.
-Whoo! -Step one,
kiss Wes. [kiss]
Step two, smile.
Step three, humbly wave at my fans.
Lifetime achievement award?
[laughs] You're so old.
I'm a dewey 27.
And this award is a big deal.
It's been a hard year,
starting up my channel again all by myself.
All by yourself?
No emotional support or fancy studio in my apartment
or anyone dressing up as a baby for you?
You should probably thank me first.
You're somewhere between God and my manicurist.
And now we get to celebrate you at the new and improved Webicon.
Or I guess the full title is now "Webicon,
sponsored by YesIStillUseChecks.com."
I'm just glad they pivoted from a giant, sweaty convention
to a glamping retreat
for "forward thinkers of the online era."
Plus, a pitch-fest for new tech ventures.
A field full of rich people
who don't know what to do with their money.
And I get to tell 'em.
Well, it better be awesome-- I got Dutch on the music lineup,
and I promised her, because you promised me,
so it's a blockchain promise.
As requested,
useless, nontoxic buy spray.
But let the record show I'm still solidly behind
Harper's idea for mosquito net jumpsuits.
Said that as a joke.
Look, we're headed to an island
with no ferry service and spotty cellular.
I just want to be prepared.
The tree houses have electricity, plumbing,
[laughs]: and an hourly tea ceremony.
My Eagle Scout here wants to bring a generator,
iodine and rations.
Well, at least you let me pack candles,
so in case the power goes out,
I can still see your gorgeous face.
Oh, get a tree house, you two.
Oh, we will. We all will.
We're gonna have the best weekend ever.
Everybody, hands in.
Webicon.
[ALL]: Webicon!
Why don't the trees have houses?
What are we supposed to eat?
Where is everyone?!
Are they all having fun without us? On a yacht?
Harper, speak to the concierge
about getting us an invite to the yacht.
-[SPENCER]: Mm. -Please.
Come on, guys,
we just have to roll with the punches,
and it'll be an adventure.
Webicon!
Yeah, I say we eat her first.
* I know *
* You see *
* Somehow the world will change for me *
* And be so wonderful *
* Live life, breathe air *
* I know somehow we're gonna get there *
* And feel so wonderful *
* It's all for real *
* I'm telling you just how I feel *
* So wake up the members of my nation *
* It's your time to be *
* There's no chance unless you take one *
* And the time to see the brighter side *
* Of every situation *
* Some things are meant to be *
* So give your best and leave the rest to me *
-* Leave it all to me * -* Leave it all to me *
* Leave it all to me *
* Just leave it all to me. *
Never ask how I got this tarp.
Is this hell?
No.
Hell at least has Lil Nas X.
Dutch is the only one from the music lineup who showed.
I guess all the rich people already figured out
what to do with their money-- they used it
to get on the last helicopter out of here.
Don't worry, we're still gonna have a great time.
I'm almost done completing inventory
and formulating a list of tasks.
See? Tasks.
I made this dress for Dutch.
She was gonna sing and dance over a fire,
and then when her fans wanted an encore,
they would scream: "S'more! S'more!"
I guess we'll have to eat it.
All right, here's the deal.
I talked to the person in charge
before she was whisked away by six competing documentarians.
They planned to have luxury tree houses,
a pitch-fest, and a sick music lineup,
but without money, that plan never went beyond:
"Let's have luxury tree houses,
a pitch-fest, and a sick music lineup."
We have a sick music lineup.
-Dutch can still perform. -No.
No, no, they said singing attracts the possums.
Dutch, I'm sorry.
I will sew you a tent out of bark if I have to.
Mm-mm. I will take a hotel room, please, and thank you.
So, are they sending boats?
Helicopters? Amazon drones?
Not until Monday. Hey, where'd you get the tarp?
[grunts gibberish]
What are we gonna do?
Don't worry about it, all right? We have just enough water,
and the festival left us non-FDA-approved protein bars,
but, uh, they are the blueberry flavor.
I'll starve.
I just really need you to take this seriously.
I am. But since you've got survival covered,
there's no reason I can't be in charge of having fun.
Uh, we could go on a sunset hike, make flower crowns,
go skinny-dipping.
Sprained ankle, poison ivy, penis parasites.
I'm just trying to make lemonade out of lemons.
Oh, you brought lemons?
No.
* *
Ah, good luck getting our food, bears!
Wait.
If the bears can't get the food, will they eat us?
Enjoy our food, bears.
[sighs heavily]
I'm so bummed the pitch-fest is canceled.
Do you think this is a sign?
Maybe it's time I hang up my entrepreneurial hat.
If you mean your Rite Aid fedora, then yes.
You can't give up. Let me help.
No. We both agreed that we were lucky our friendship survived
you investing in my first failed start-up.
You are not allowed to give me any more money.
And I won't.
But I bet I can find a different rich idiot
to trick into losing all of their money.
There must be someone here who was too dumb to make it out.
Yeah.
Us.
You're not going to find anyone.
I'm just not cut out for the tech world.
Maybe it's time I find something else.
[SPENCER]: Hey...
Should we tell him he just walked through poison oak?
He'll find out soon enough.
Sorry I got you to bring Double Dutch.
She's a lot.
Hey, she's my boss-- only I'm allowed to say that.
And Wes is quite the survivalist
and very helpful and not at all annoying.
[like Wes]: Hey, don't eat the red berries-- they're poisonous.
Hey!
[chuckles] But that was dead-on.
Wes is just such a planner, and...
I love that, but sometimes he has trouble being spontaneous.
I want to survive, too.
Doesn't mean I can't also have a flower crown.
I'm on a trip with my favorite people
who I promised a great time.
I need to at least try to make that happen.
I don't know how to work this compass.
Oh, uh, try turning it off
-and then back on. -Oh.
I feel bad, but...
I keep thinking about if I were here with my ex-boyfriend,
who shall not be named.
Beau?
Guess we're naming him.
He'd already have, like, four penis parasites.
That guy's fun.
And he's also right there.
Carly!
Oh, fun.
* *
Ooh, this place is amazing!
Is that a bidet in the bathroom?
I'm gonna go check.
You, uh, seem surprised to see me.
Didn't you know I was presenting you
with your lifetime achievement award?
No.
No, I did not.
I guess they thought we make a good pair.
You know, probably since we've always made such a good pair.
Uh, congratulations, by the way.
Webicon Web Icon is a huge deal.
I guess if we'd started a channel together,
I would've just been holding you back.
Or riding my coattails.
Sounds like a fun ride.
How'd you get this place, anyway?
Uh, probably by being the most famous person here.
I don't know, maybe a different reason.
Hey, did you get one of the tarps? Those seem cool.
Oh, yeah.
They're awesome.
We're really just making the most of our time.
The laughs we've had,
you wouldn't believe.
Same. You know, I was gonna bounce,
but then I figured: why not make lemonade out of lemons?
-[door opens] -Exactly.
It's a bidet, all right.
Hell of a bidet.
So you just have all this space for you and your girlfriend?
We, uh, broke up, actually.
-Oh. -And we didn't know?
Don't you usually prefer to dump people on a livestream?
Let me make it up to you. Why don't you all stay here?
I don't know.
I just started seeing someone.
He's an auto mechanic.
Like, a real manly man.
He's probably off building us a better tree house right now.
So no.
You listen to me, Carly Shay. I am a knight in shining armor,
and Dutch is my damsel in distress,
professionally speaking!
So yes.
Please.
[sighs] Fine.
I'll stay in this gorgeous tree house
with the softest towels I've ever felt.
But you owe me.
Millicent, this is perfect. Beau is the investor
of Freddie's dreams.
Positive attitude. Money to burn.
No understanding of business or perhaps even money at all.
But my dad's confidence is at an all-time low.
He's not gonna try and make a sale now.
Which is why we need Beau to come to him.
He'll see it as a sign.
Yes! I haven't done a good scheme in ages.
I hope I'm not rusty.
* *
How cool is it of Beau to let us use his tree house?
Yeah. Very cool.
Except I am a little worried
it's not built to hold eight people.
Sure it is.
They wouldn't have included a blackjack table
if they didn't want you to entertain.
Since we're good on shelter and food and water now,
what should we do?
[chanting]: Flower crowns. Flower crowns.
Yes! And then I heard about an amazing sunset hike.
Oh, uh, before we go spraining our ankles all willy-nilly...
I need to make sure there's actually enough food
and clean water in this tree house for everyone.
There's tons of food.
I don't know how much water there is--
the fridge just does filtered.
It even does pellet ice.
Carly loves pellet ice.
Beau, uh, actually, can you grab us some drinks?
Regular Coke with lime and--
let me guess-- tepid water since the body absorbs it faster.
Oh. Yeah, I know you're mocking me,
but that's actually true, so thanks.
[Carly giggles]
So, this I was not prepared for.
Yeah, it's weird.
But there's absolutely nothing going on
between Beau and me now.
I doubt we have anything in common anymore.
Did somebody say "flower crown"?
* *
Which is why, with Kevin,
you're not taking care of the puppy...
The puppy is taking care...
-of you! -Of you!
Yeah, but don't tell Freddie we told you, okay?
He's got so many investors.
He'd kill us if he knew we told one more person about it.
It's such a good idea.
You think maybe I could get him to pitch it to me?
-Maybe. -Maybe.
Hey, um, what are the symptoms of Lyme disease?
This place has a real Lyme-y vibe.
You know what doesn't have a Lyme-y vibe? Your app Kevin.
Whoops. I didn't mean to mention it in front of Beau.
But now that the puppy's out of the bag,
why don't you tell him about it.
[sighs] Okay, um, well, the idea was:
match people who need therapy dogs
with people who need dog-sitters, so that...
It sounds awesome.
How about you give me the full pitch tomorrow.
I need to text my dad first.
My dad's my business guy.
Also, I just love him.
Really? Beau, I mean... that would be great.
Men supporting men.
That's what it's all about.
Oh, my God!
Did you see me just manifest that opportunity
out of total thin air?
-Oh, yes. -You did that.
-You did that! -Yes!
Ooh!
* *
Okay, you were right, Wes--
that nontoxic bug spray is useless.
Mm-hmm. Or maybe you're just too sweet.
Here, this is safe
and totally works.
Wow, I'm just, like, the hero of this entire weekend.
-You know what would make it even better? -[HARPER]: Nothing.
Nothing could make this better, because it's great!
Right, Dutch?
No.
A chipmunk looked at me weird.
I was gonna say scary stories.
Oh, like the one about the guy stranded in the forest
with his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend.
Ooh, what's that one?
Yup, no, I got it.
Are we talking scary scary, or "George the Bra" scary?
[laughs] Oh!
[like George]: "I'm going to get you."
-[laughter] -Uh...
George the Bra?
George the Bra that tells ghost stories.
It's a classic iCarly character.
Carly, your marshmallow's on fire.
Oh. [exhales sharply]
We like 'em burnt and crispy.
Then when you put it on the chocolate...
-it melts faster. -It melts faster.
I wasn't talking about the viscosity of your dessert.
I was talking about the increased risk of forest fire.
Wow. You can even take the fun out of roasting marshmallows.
Am I the only one here whose definition of fun
includes not dying?
Oh, man, wait. I bet you wind up dying in some super boring way.
Or maybe I never die, because I make careful decisions.
Okay, let's all relax.
Oh, I think Beau here is plenty relaxed.
Aah! Is this what we've been making s'mores out of?
This is my dress!
This is cannibalism!
Dutch, if we didn't eat it, it was gonna attract bugs.
Then Wes would make us eat those.
You know what? I'm gonna go. I'll be back.
Oh, actually, I was gonna storm off super dramatically, so...
Aah! Aah!
[continues screaming]
[DUTCH]: Okay, you're good.
-Wes, wait. -Look, I'm sorry,
but I just need a minute, okay?
Let's all just cool off and take some space.
[thunder crashing]
And pack ourselves into a shelter
that comfortably sleeps two.
* *
[thunder crashing]
[loud crackling]
Do you think that's FEMA here to save us...
or a serial killer here to end us?
-It was probably just a branch. -Serial killer.
-Dude. -What?
Carly, uh, can we talk?
Uh, yeah.
We should.
[wind whistling]
I'm sorry, Carly, but I'm getting pretty frustrated, okay?
I-I mean, I've been working all weekend
to try and keep us safe, and it's, like, none of that
matters to you because I didn't weave you a flower crown.
You don't weave a flower crown. You tie it off.
[sighs] I'm just trying
to make the best of a bad situation,
and you keep reminding me how bad it is.
Yeah, because it is bad, okay? Not everything is skinny-dipping
and lifetime achievement awards.
Well, not everything is life-or-death.
[thunder crashing, loud crackling]
[screaming]
Hi there.
Oh, crap, wrong arms.
Oh, uh, I-I was just reaching for my phone.
-It's very precious to me. -I... I was...
-I was also doing, like, the same. -Yeah, same.
-[thunder crashing] -[screaming, grunting]
I am my mother's son!
-[thunder crashing] -[screaming]
See? You grabbed Beau, too.
He's just very grab-able.
-Whoa! Whoa! -[screams]
Well...
-at least we still have a roof over our heads. -[wood creaking]
This album is literally rocking my world.
* *
Well, we look amazing.
I wasn't gonna let these outfits go to waste.
My best friend was getting an award.
I rented enough runway to land a plane.
Aw. That's sweet.
You liar.
You packed all these cute clothes
so you could look good for Dutch.
You like her.
How dare you...
read me so accurately.
Okay, yeah, when the tree house was falling,
I reached for Dutch.
But you reached for Beau.
How dare you...
recount true events.
Do you still have feelings for him?
EscÃ¡ndalo.
A week ago I would've told you no,
but Wes and I haven't been on the same page all weekend.
-Mm. -It's like this whole experience
has just made me realize that he and I are really different.
And sometimes very different people
-make great couples. -Yeah, but...
then there's Beau.
I mean, he makes everything so easy.
Mm.
When we broke up, that was, like,
the third fight we've ever had.
Well, I guess the question is,
do you want someone who's like you,
or do you want someone who complements you?
And I guess the second question is,
are you willing to risk your dream career
for your dream girl?
Mm.
You know what I wish?
That we jumped into each other's arms.
'Cause then it would've been like,
"Aw, they're so cute. They're best friends."
[laughs] So cute!
But we didn't.
So it was the one failed start-up.
It was the two failed marriages.
He's tanking.
[loud, awkward giggling]
Spencer, you know what you have to do.
Damn it.
And, I mean, you learn by failing, right?
-What is happening? -H-Hi!
My name is Bandit, and I'm a terrier.
[Irish accent]: An Irish terrier.
And I was ne-u-tered!
Not because I wanted to be,
but because it's the socially responsible thing to do.
Now, who wants to scratch me belly?!
-No one! -Me!
[rhythmic grunting]
Wow. I mean, that was the best pitch I've ever heard.
I'm so bummed I can't invest.
[SPENCER]: What?
[Irish accent]: But I was ne-u-tered.
Yeah, my dad thinks dogs are just a fad. But...
hey, good luck.
Not that you'll need it.
Spencer and Millicent told me how many investors
you have lined up.
Congratulations.
Huh.
So you set this up.
What, just so I could squeeze in one last failure before
-I give up entirely, or...? -You can't give up.
You have every reason to believe in this.
You're talented. It's a great idea.
The world needs it.
In fact...
It's only $13.
It's all I have liquid.
I'm in.
Wow. [chuckles] Thank you.
This means more to me than any big investment ever could.
Well, I want to make a big investment.
Okay, thunder stealer.
* *
Dutch?
Are you in there?
[DUTCH]: No.
All right. Well, if you see Dutch,
tell her that tarp is not her color.
How dare you.
I look gorgeous in this.
You do.
Look, I love working for you.
And we click creatively, and I really admire you.
But I think that some of those feelings
might be crossing the line, and...
I think you feel it, too.
Yeah, I do.
Both of my hearts are beating out of my chest.
I have two hearts.
But we work together, and this is my dream job.
You're my dream stylist,
and it's really helping me push myself creatively.
I think we need to put that first.
Me, too.
[laughs] So we agree.
We're just gonna close our eyes,
turn off our feelings for the sake of professionalism.
I really love your boundaries.
[trembles]: Uh-huh.
Okay.
Erase.
[chuckles nervously]
Erase.
Zip! They're gone. All right.
[laughs]
Well, I'm so glad that worked.
[laughs]
There you are.
I've been looking everywhere for you.
First place I checked was in Beau's arms.
Next time we're in a collapsing tree house,
I promise I will jump on you.
Wes, I'm sorry.
And I really appreciate everything you've done for us.
Well, hopefully you'll appreciate this, too.
Come with me.
* *
[whooping, cheering]
Oh, my God, what is all this?
[WES]: It's your stage,
for you to accept your award.
[clapping, whooping]
I don't deserve all this.
-Carly... -We are gathered here today
to celebrate the life of Carly Shay.
[WES]: Actually, as the person
who made the podium and the award, I...
Pretty sure this is the award.
I had it flown in this morning.
Does that mean you could have had us flown out?
I wanted to stay,
'cause I have something to tell you, Carly.
Uh, this feels like it's in the arena of what I wanted to say,
so if I could just go first, I'll be real quick.
-I think we should go in alphabetical order. -Eh...
-I love you. -I love you.
Duly noted.
Carly, breaking up with you was
the second biggest mistake of my life.
Do you remember when I bought that pizza with Bitcoin?
Okay, I would never make either of those mistakes,
because I love you, and I actually do still use checks.
These are all great points. Very compelling.
A lot of pros, lot of cons.
Okay, so what are you gonna do?
Wait to see if she says it back.
Not you, dude. Carly.
I'd like to thank God
and my brother Spencer
and my manicurist Leslie.
I love you.
Leslie.
And...
[helicopter approaching]
-Hey! Hey! -Down here!
We're here!
See?
That's why I thank God first.
I looked death straight in the eyes and said,
"Not today, Carly. Not today."
I drank from a bidet.
What happens at Webicon stays at Webicon.
So we left those feelings at Webicon.
Why? Did she say something about me?
Yeah, I feel good about where I landed.
I mean, the heart wants what the heart wants.
Until it doesn't.
And then does again.
And sometimes you get rescued
before you even have to make a decision,
and then you end up on a helicopter
with two guys just staring at you the whole time.
But yeah, everything's great.
I got a penis parasite.
