Crazy Steve
[Crazy Steve looks at watch]

It's time! [he steals old man's cane and starts chasing Josh] You ate my enchilada!

Josh

There was no note!

Crazy Steve

You eat my enchilada!

Josh

There was no note!

Audrey
[hears doorbell; talking about Helen and Lula]

Walter, they're here.

Walter

Ooh. [walks before the front door]

Megan

Dad, are you sure about this?

Walter

Yes. And we are doing a very nice thing for a sweet old lady. [Lula breaks the door in]

Lula

Where's the bathroom?!

Audrey

Did you just break our door in?!

Lula

I rang the doorbell, waited 25 seconds, no one answered, what I supposed to do?

Josh

You could've rang the doorbell, again.

Lula
[to Helen]

Who's that boy with a big head that looks like a tooth pick with a cantaloupe on top? [Megan laughs and Josh give her a furious look]

Megan

What, am I going to pretend that wasn't funny?

Helen

That's Josh, [introduces everyone else] That's Drake, I prefer him. That's Megan, that's Audrey, and this is...[forgets who Walter is]

Walter

Walter!

Lula

Great, now where's the bathroom?!

Audrey

Right through that door.

Lula

Well, thank you for finally giving me that information! [walks into bathroom and slams door]

Audrey

Is she always so--

Helen

Buh-bye! [goes away]

Megan

I can't believe that lady is staying in our guest room for a week.

Walter

No, she's staying in your room.

Megan

What?!

Audrey

You'll be staying in the boys' room.

Drake, Josh and Megan

What?!

Josh

This is an outrage!

Drake

What are we gonna stay?

Walter
[to Drake and Josh]

Your room is huge. The three of you will be fine for a week.

Megan

Aw, this is horrible.

Walter

It's not that bad.

Audrey
[Drake arrives home]

Super Bowl's on.

Drake

I don't care.

Josh

Come on, the commercial's up in about two minutes. You gotta watch. It's your song.

Drake

It's not my song. It's horrible bubble-gum pop garbage-y badness. That 50,000,000 people are about to hear. I'll be on the roof.

Josh

Why?

Drake

Because you're not there. [walks away]

Josh

Drake! [runs off to Drake]

Drake
[Drake and Josh reintroduce themselves from the pilot episode]

My name's Drake Parker.

Josh

I'm Josh Nichols.

Drake

I should probably be doing my homework.

Josh

I'm just doing a little homework here.

Drake

You know there's an old song by the stones it you can't always get what you want.

Josh

Drake always get what he wants.

Drake

But I usually get what I want.

Josh

I guess Drake's one of those guys who has a lucky star.

Drake

Josh may think I'm a lucky one but I bet you things start going his way. The one thing that I can always count on.

Josh

But one thing I know for sure.

Drake

Whenever I hang out with Josh.

Josh

Whenever I get mixed up with Drake.

Drake and Josh

Things always turn out.

Drake

Unusual.

Josh

Okay.

Alan
[Alan Kirm plays his auto-tuned made version of Drake's song after tricking Josh into signing away creative rights, the boys are displeased]

What do you think?

Josh

Uh, well....

Drake

I hate it!

Alan
[stops the song playing]

You hate it?

Drake

Yeah, that's not even my song. What'd you do to it?

Alan

Uh, we just had our best mixers and producers work on it 6 days straight. It's great.

Josh

But it's not the song you said you like.

Alan

Yeah, it is. It's just been improved.

Drake

No, it's been ruined!

Josh

Drake...

Drake

Look, don't "Drake" me! They can't do that to my song!

Alan

Sure, we can. We have a signed contract that gives us complete creative control.

Drake

Look, no, you don't! I didn't sign any contract.

Alan

Your manager did.

Drake
[turns to Josh, who realizes his mistake]

You signed a contract?

Josh
[meekly, feeling bad and nervous]

Uh...

Alan

We'll let you guys discuss this privately.

Josh
[Alan and the others leave the room, while an enraged Drake gives a nervous Josh a bitter look]

Don't be mad...

Drake
[furious]

OH, I AM WAY PAST MAD!

Josh

I made a mistake.

Drake

How could you sign away creative control of my song?!

Josh

I was mesmerized by a giant shrimp!

Drake

You didn't read the contract, did you? How could you sign a contract without reading it?!

Josh

He said it was the standard stuff.

Drake

OH my god!

Josh
[stuttering]

M-M-M-Maybe I can fix this, alright? I'll go talk to Alan as your manager.

Drake

No, you won't!

Josh

Look, maybe I could fix--

Drake

No, you're not my manager anymore, alright?! YOU'RE FIRED! I mean it!

Drake
[Without another word, Josh sadly leaves the room, while Drake sits down and sulks]

Man, I have a headache.

Josh
[The boys sleep on the mattress; Drake wakes up to find himself hugging Josh's foot against his face. He yells, and Josh wakes up in alarm]

Why are you screaming?

Drake

'Cause there was a big, hairy foot in my face!

Josh

Stupid big shrimp. This is all your fault! [take 1 shrimp in his mouth, and spits it out] Tell your friends!

Drake

Man, I don't understand. Why would they end up using my version of the song?

Josh

Like you said, bro. Sometimes, when people play dirty, you gotta play dirty back!

Drake

You put fruit flies in Alan Krim's car?

Josh

Better! I switched the CDs.

Mindy
[yells; panicked after crazy Steve goes insane]

Help! Crazy Steve's gone berserk!

Josh & Helen

Crazy Steve!?

Mindy

WHO ELSE!?

Josh

But it's Monday, you can't schedule crazy Steve to work on a Monday!

Helen

Monday's his bad day!

Mindy

Well, no-one TOLD me that!

Crazy Steve

****-CA-DOODLE-DOO, THE COW SAYS MOO!!!

Nick Mateo

Which 1 of you switched the song?

Drake
[feeling bad for being angry and mean to Josh, shares the blame]

I did.

Josh

I did.

Drake

We both did! Okay?

Alan

Well, guess what. There's rules and laws about television broadcasting. We can turn you into the FCC for what you did!

Nick

Yup, you guys could be in a lot of trouble. [smiles] But you're not.

Drake

We're not?

Alan

They're not?

Josh

What are you?

Nick

In the last 24 hours, we've gotten over 30,000 emails and phone calls from fans wanting to buy your song. This morning, we made the song available on the Spin City Website. There were so many downloads, it crashed our server. Drake Parker, I think you're about to have yourself a #1 hit.

Drake
[ending from The Amanda Show]

I want the shrimp.

Josh

I want it.

Drake
[snatches the shrimp]

I want it!
