Freddie's dream job of working at the new Pear store becomes a nightmare when Sam is also hired, and becomes his boss.
Meanwhile, Carly befriends a nerdy boy and tries to get him asked out, and Spencer spends the night at the local firehouse.
Tropes:
- Big Brother Instinct: When Trey is chasing Carly around the apartment for a kiss, Spencer responds to her call for help and throws the guy out.
- Disproportionate Retribution: The fire department refuses to come back to the Shay's apartment forever more simply because of Spencer starting one too many fires.
- End-of-Series Awareness: The fire department refusing to come back to the Shay's apartment ever again gives the hint the series itself is ending soon.
- Everyone Has Standards: Sam may have taken a job at the Pear Store to annoy Freddie. However, even she thought that his boss’s actions at the end of the episode were too much and quit in response.
