Drew & Jerry is the thirteenth episode of the second season of Drake & Josh.
Synopsis[]
Josh makes friends with a boy called Drew who looks a lot like Drake. Then, feeling left out of proceedings, Drake befriends a boy called Jerry who looks and acts just like Josh.
Plot[]
In the opening comments, Drake and Josh talk about how they hang out with each other all the time, with Josh being so happy about it while Drake is annoyed by it.
Drake needs more time to himself while Josh begins hanging out with Drew (a teenager who looks and acts like Drake). He gets jealous of Drew, so he finds a new friend named Jerry, (a teenager who looks and acts like Josh), to make Josh jealous. Soon, both opt to start spending more time with their new friends rather than with each other. Josh abandons his plans to see a movie with Drake to see it with Drew instead whereas Drake spends the day deep-sea fishing with Jerry, something Josh has always wanted to do.
Drake and Josh get fed up with each other, so they have Drew and Jerry show off their talents at The Premiere (Jerry shows a magic trick, after that, Drew plays his saxophone and Jerry shows his dance to it), which draws the attention of a television producer, who offers them parts in a show about two brothers (which ends up early which is similar to Drake and Josh). Drake and Josh eventually reconcile and become friends again.
During the end credits, Drew and Jerry end up having their own show together.

Trivia[]
- Jerry says "I have lumbar problems." Josh said the exact same thing in Pilot.
- This episode references to the episode Pool Shark:
- Drake tells Josh that Jerry is the best pool player he has ever seen.
- Josh says, "I thought you meant you were sorry you gambled, and you weren't gonna do it anymore." Drake then says "No, I meant I was sorry that I didn't tell you I was gambling, and I definitely want to do it some more." In Drew and Jerry, Jerry says "But I thought you meant that you were sorry that you cheated on the test, and you weren't gonna do it anymore. Drew then says "No, I'm sorry I got caught and I'm definitely gonna do it some more."
- Also, the opening scene is rather similar to the one of Pool Shark, with Drake complaining about spending time with Josh, who is loving it.
- Josh sometimes says, "Head Aches, you give me Head Aches" to Drake and Jerry says "Stomach Aches, you give me Stomach Aches" to Drew.
- This episode's title is a pun on Drake & Josh (2004 Nickelodeon and TeeNick sitcom) and Tom and Jerry (violent cartoon which made its debut in the theaters in the '40s by Metro-Goldwyn Mayer).
- A show called Canadian Idol is mentioned, which was an actual reality competition.
- Drake and Josh break the fourth wall when they talk about the show Drew and Jerry are going to be on, Drake says "what a dumb idea for a show" and Josh replies "yeah, who would watch it", referring to this same show.
- This episode is similar to the iCarly episode iLook Alike because of the main characters using lookalikes to take someone else's place.
- This episode appears as a flashback on Dr. Phyllis Show.
Goofs[]
- When Drake takes Megan out, she calls him Drew by accident.
- Josh says to Jerry that he plays pool too, however in the episode Pool Shark, after finding Drake's gambling issues, he swore not to play again. It is possible that he probably took up pool after a while.
- Drake asks for some Dr. Fizz but Walter said that Drew got the last of it. Shortly after, Josh walks into the kitchen and a 3/4 of a bottle of Dr. Fizz is on the kitchen counter.
- When Drake gets drinks for both him and Megan at The Premiere, he says he gets a root beer for Megan which she hates and a Dr. Fizz for himself, but if you look really closely, you can tell that the movie theater cups are empty and don't have anything in them.
- Jerry says that he plays a lot of pool at The Premiere and Josh tells him he plays that game too, but the pool table is not seen at The Premiere in this episode or in any other episodes.
