Ep 12. The Gary Grill

In Drake & Josh season 2 episode 12, titled "The Gary Grill," the titular characters embark on a mission to open a burger joint in their backyard. They call it "The Gary Grill" and put up all the necessary equipment, including a grill, refrigerator, and tables. However, things quickly spiral out of control when they realize they have no actual burgers to serve - they forgot to buy them!

While trying to figure out how to procure the necessary meat, Drake and Josh also have to contend with a series of setbacks and mishaps. For one, their grill keeps malfunctioning and causing fires. They also have to deal with pesky neighborhood kids who keep trying to sneak onto their property to steal food. Plus, they have to try and keep their entrepreneurial endeavor a secret from their parents, who are out of town for the weekend.

To make matters worse, Drake and Josh run into an old rival from their school, who challenges them to a basketball game. If they lose, they have to give him all the food from The Gary Grill. Determined not to give up their hard-earned profits, Drake and Josh train tirelessly for the game. But when the day of the game arrives, they quickly realize they're no match for their opponent, who is much taller and more skilled than they are.

Desperate to win, the boys come up with a sneaky plan involving a trampoline and some clever misdirection. It works, and they manage to secure a hard-fought victory. However, their victory is short-lived when they realize that their grill has caused a massive fire that's sweeping through their backyard and threatening to burn down the entire neighborhood.

In a panic, Drake and Josh try to extinguish the flames with a garden hose, but it's not enough. Just when all seems lost, their parents return home and manage to put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. Relieved and grateful, Drake and Josh learn an important lesson about the dangers of backyard barbecuing and the importance of proper safety precautions. They also realize that sometimes, it's better to just stick to ordering burgers from a restaurant rather than trying to make them yourself.

Overall, "The Gary Grill" is a hilarious and action-packed episode that showcases the unique comedic dynamic between Drake and Josh. With its fast-paced plot, zany hijinks, and memorable characters, it's a must-watch for fans of the show and anyone looking for a fun and entertaining sitcom.
