Plot summary

Drake completely forgets about Josh's birthday. At first Josh thinks that Drake is trying to surprise him, as he tells Josh to come to The Premiere for a party. He thinks the party is for him, but finds out it's for Drake's girlfriend, Tabatha, who he has only known for 5 days, and whose birthday is the same as Josh's. Josh leaves the party and Drake sees that Josh's boss, Helen, has a birthday present for Josh. Drake feels so bad about forgetting that he gets Josh tickets for The Oprah Winfrey Show, as Oprah is Josh's idol. Josh is ecstatic until Drake grabs his steering wheel, causing the car to drive into Oprah on the way to the show. They visit the hospital and try to get into her room to apologize, but can't get past the bodyguards in front of her room. They try to distract everyone by saying that Josh has a flesh eating virus, which causes everyone to run out of the area, including the bodyguards. The plan backfires when nurses come to Josh him medical help and give him an involuntary chemical bath. Drake gets distracted and leaves Josh there.

• Apparently, this episode takes place on February 23 and February 24. If today is Josh's birthday and it is Tabitha's birthday and if it is February 23, then that means that Drake met Tabitha on February 19. February 19 takes place on Tuesday in this episode.
