Hey guys, guess what? Plagiarism is THEFT! In Africa, you could have your hand chopped off.
Do you really want to be hypothetically handless?

This one is for Maddi, because who doesn't love lost Russian duchess musicals and a kid's webshow?
Spencer Shay walked into his apartment, which he shared with his little sister, Carly. Carly was sitting at the breakfast bar with her friends- more like inseparable roommates- Sam and Freddy. A huge amount of post-it notes was spread out over the counter.
"Hey, whatcha guys doing?" Spencer asked.
"Just deciding ideas for the next iCarly." Freddy replied.
"I still think we should go with the man who eats bricks," Sam said, shoving a forkful of potato salad in her mouth.
"Hey, is that our potato salad?" Spencer knew it was pointless to ask, but he figured he might as well check.
"Yeah, why?"
"Is it good?"
"Yeah." Sam paused. "Why?"
"Oh, because it expired two days ago." Spencer said. He had meant to throw it out, but right as he was about to put it in the trashcan, he was inspired for a new sculpture. And so the potato salad stayed.
"Two days?" Carly said incredulously.
"Well, you see, I was… never mind. So Sam, you should probably stop eating that now."
"Oh please. One time, my mom fed me cheese that had expired a month before." She said, wolfing down the rest.
"That's disgusting!" Freddy exclaimed.
"Isn't that when you were sick for like, a month?" Carly asked.
Sam looked at her. "Maaaayyybe."
"Alright, well I think that the lost Russian duchess is way more exciting than the man who eats bricks," Carly said, knowing that trying to convince Sam that she was wrong was a moot point.
"Wait, are you talking about Anastasia?" Spencer asked.
"Yup," Sam said. "A frilly princess girl who will probably give us makeup tips. Brick-eating dude is much cooler."
Ignoring Sam, Spencer asked, "How did you get Anastasia?"
"Well," said Freddy. "You know how my grandfather was in the circus?"
"Oh, yeah, the Fencin' Bensons," Spencer recalled.
"Well Anastasia's boyfriend, Dimitri, worked on the crew for awhile. My mom saw him in the paper the other day and gave him a call. He said Anastasia loves iCarly!"
"Wow, that's so cool!" Spencer said.
"Yeah! And do you know how many Russians would tune in?" Carly asked.
"How many?" Sam replied.
"Well… I don't know. But a lot!" Carly replied.
"But… the guy… he eats bricks!" Sam protested.
"He's a hobo that lives down the street! He can be on anytime!" Carly responded indignantly.
"Well… fine." Sam gave in.
"Then it's official. Anastasia is on the next iCarly." Freddy confirmed.
