[first lines of the series]
[Principal Franklin laughs at the paper he is holding, until Ms. Briggs enters the room. He stops and puts the paper down]
Carly, get in here right now. [snaps her fingers, and Carly Shay enters]
Principal FranklinHave a seat. [she does] So... I understand you put some flyers up all over the school.
[to Carly; angrily] Why would you photo dock my head onto the body of a rhinoceros?
Principal Franklin
Rhinoceros? Oh, no, no, no. She made you a hippopotamus.
No, no. She's a rhinoceros. A hippo has fatter thighs and a wider snout.
[screaming gibberish] WHAT DOES IT MATTER? [quietly] I think we should call her father into discuss this.
Um, my dad's stationed in Europe right now.
Principal Franklin
[to Ms. Briggs] He's in the military.
Well, there must be some adult in charge of her.
My older brother, Spencer.
Principal Franklin
Look, we don't need to call her brother in about this. I'm sure that you can come up with a suitable punishment.
Fine. You know, Carly, I am in charge of the talent show this year.
Yeah, you're holding auditions on Saturday.
I will be enjoying my Saturday while you videotape the auditions for me.
No! I'm going to see Cuddlefish play live at the Hawthorne on Saturday.
[sternly] It's what you get for turning me into a hippopotamus.
Principal Franklin
Hello, Sam.
Principal Franklin
[sternly] Sam?
[sarcastically] Good morning, Principal Franklin!
Principal Franklin
[smiles; not understanding Sam's sarcasm] Thank you. Now, what trouble have you gotten in over the past week?
Let's see. I got yelled at by Ms Briggs for getting an "F" on a quiz.
Principal Franklin
Why did you fail the quiz?
I didn't know the answers.
Principal Franklin
Right. Anything else?
Ooh! I got kicked out of the cafeteria for slapping Gibby with a piece of pizza.
Principal Franklin
Why did you slap Gibby with a piece of pizza?
I found it on the floor; I wasn't gonna eat it.
[after catching the students; angrily and confused] A video camera?! Turtles?! Burritos?! What is going on here?!
[hesitantly] The iCarly 50th Web-Show Spectacular? [Sam hesitantly presses 5th button which plays a recording of a cheering crowd; Carly angrily snatches the remote from Sam]
[angrily; stupidly thinking he had won] You're all really in trouble now. I am talking suspension! I am talking expulsion! Deportation! [Principal Franklin appears, but Mr. Howard doesn't notice] And you can all start with 500 push-ups! I don't care what Principal Franklin has to say about it.
Principal Franklin
[sternly] (Oh, really?) You don't?
[angrily] No! I-- [sees Principal Franklin; alarmed] Oh! [embarrassed] Oh, dear. Pr-- Principal Franklin.
Principal Franklin
Well, I was at home, watching the iCarly 50th Web-Show Spectacular. [to Carly and Sam; pleased] Congratulations, by the way. My kids and I love your show.
Principal Franklin
[becomes serious again] While I was watching, I heard Mr. Howard...call me a weak, spineless fool.
(Note: While he did say the first two, he didn’t actually say “fool”; but that could’ve been a bluff)
[horrified] No, no, no! I Said...uh, sweet. Stylish. Cool.
Principal Franklin
[not believing Mr. Howard] (No, you didn't.) In my office.
Principal Franklin
[sternly] Now.
[walks out of detention room; defeated] Why does everything always happen to me?
Principal Franklin
Well, I suppose Mr. Howard has tortured you all enough. Go home.
Okay, we're just about done.
Principal Franklin
And I'm Ted.
Carly And thanks for watching the iCarly 50th Web-Show Spectacular.
Principal Franklin
[Sam almost pushes 5th button; politely] May I?
[politely] Second button from the bottom. [Principal Frank pushes said button]

♪ It's iCarly's 50th Web-Show Spectacular. ♪
CSCarly and Sam
Bye! Keep visiting iCarly.com. Don't forget it.
Principal Franklin
Yes, Gibby, you have a question.
Yes. How many fat cakes are in that tank?
Principal Franklin
Oh, Gibby, there's so much not right about you.
Principal Franklin
Before I announce the winner, I feel compelled to tell you the worst guess, which was 5. [holds up a piece of paper with Gibby's name and the number five on it]
I won?! I won! [starts taking off his shirt]
Principal Franklin
No, Gibby, you didn't win. In fact, your guess was so far off that we're calling your parents and having you tested.
(after Principal Franklin is given his job back)
Okay, you have no idea how psyched we are that you're back.
Principal Franklin
You are in big trouble, Carly! And so are you two! I was very clear yesterday when I told you that I did not want you-(Carly interrupts him) What, what?
Principal Franklin
(long pause) ...I love you guys. (the four start cheering and hi-fiving each other)
(runs into the hall shirtless) YEAH! YEAH, UH-HUH! (the four look at him oddly, and the episode ends as they continue hi-fiving)
