The Wedding is the third episode of the fourth season of Drake & Josh.
Plot
Drake and Josh talk about how unpleasant their great aunt Catherine is and both are in agreement that she is quite unpleasant. They are asked to deliver a wedding cake to their Great Aunt Catherine's wedding on time, in hopes that the family can get her beach house. Drake gives Craig and Eric Josh's laptop case (which not only contains Josh's laptop), but also Josh's cell phone and the keys to their mother's SUV, leaving them with no ride to the wedding. Drake starts to call Craig and Eric, but Josh denies this because neither of them have cell phones and talks about the time Papa Nichols broke Eric's (a reference to The Demonator), and according to Craig's mother, cell phones cause Craig to get ear sores.
Drake and Josh use Trevor's old car (a 1970s Chevrolet El Camino), to try to get to the wedding on time. However, the car breaks down and leaves them stranded without any means of calling for help. When they leave to urinate, two police officers (Kevin Farley and Jesse Burch) give them a parking ticket. Drake and Josh then try to get help off of two male strangers who end up mugging them. Afterwards, a tow truck driver named Leslie (E. E. Bell) offers to help, but Drake insults him for his name, so he abandons them. At the end, Drake and Josh fixed Trevor's old car to get it working. However, they walk away when the car gets caught on fire and the Great Aunt Catherine's cake too.

Trivia
- Walter is absent in this episode, although he was mentioned waiting in the car.
- This episode aired one year after Girl Power.
- The deserted road set/location is reused in the iCarly movie special iGo To Japan.
- Megan only appears at the beginning of the episode and doesn't appear more at all, this takes us back to when Josh only appears at the beginning of the episode The Storm and doesn't appear more at all.
- When Drake hits Josh on the foot with a big rock, it's kind of similar when Drake shoots him with a potato and Josh dropping a barbell on his foot in the episode Paging Dr. Drake.
- This is the second episode featured at night after Two Idiots and a Baby.
- Drake and Josh's bedroom is not featured for the second time just like in the previous episode Vicious Tiberius.
- This is the last episode to be produced in 2005 before Drake Bell got into a car accident and production halted and would resume in March 2006.
Goofs
- Trevor should've gotten the car fixed in the first place so Drake and Josh wouldn't have to waste their time fixing it.
- Drake had a car, as revealed in Drake & Josh Go Hollywood, but they don't even try to use it. However, in My Dinner with Bobo, Drake said that he lost his car, but it's unknown whether this happened before or after this episode or likely he got a new one.
- When Drake talks about how he has to pee, Josh's hands are by his side. Then a camera view changes and Josh is playing with his watch.
- In this episode, Drake accidentally gives Josh's phone to Craig and Eric and Drake says he put his phone in a bowl of soup, causing it to no longer work. In the last episode Vicious Tiberius, Drake flushes Josh's cell phone down the toilet and Mrs. Hayfer's dog destroys Drake's cell phone. They must have gotten new phones after that.
- If Josh left his cell phone in his laptop case, why couldn't he call his cell phone from their house and tell Eric that he needs the keys that are in the case? It is possible that either Josh's cell phone was turned off, and therefore a phone call could not be made, or that Eric and Craig have to get to the observatory and that calling them to give the phone back would waste their time.
- In the episode Movie Job, Drake doesn't seem to like ketchup on hot dogs. In this episode, he is seen about to put ketchup on a hot dog. He may have changed his mind about disliking it.
- After Leslie breaks the window and Drake says, "Well, we could've done THAT!" the camera zooms out and glass is on the ground. Later, when the camera zooms out again, the glass is suddenly gone.
- When Drake and Josh had to go to the bathroom, couldn't they have taken turns waiting by the car in case of any carjackers or just to wait for help?
- Closed-captions spell "Laguna Niguel" as "Laguna Nigel."
- Audrey asks Megan to zip up her dress from the back, but when she is talking to Drake, it can be clearly seen that her dress had no zipper.
- After Drake accidentally breaks Josh's foot with a rock, you can see that afterwards, the rock is nowhere to be seen and Josh is walking perfectly fine.
- When the police car pulls out of the highway, you can see Josh in the far right side, not reacting to the car at all. However, in the very next shot, he and Drake are yelling and running after it.
- Drake and Josh accidentally lock themselves out of the car and leaving the keys in the car but when Drake accidentally shredded Josh's tuxedo shirt through the car motor, Drake comes out of the car but he didn't even lock the door when he came out so it's impossible that the doors would just lock them out without them doing anything.
- After Drake and Josh fix the car motor, they get in the car to test it out and start it but they forgot to close the hood which makes the car catch on fire. In reality, a car could start a fire if you leave the hood open and drive with it open, besides didn't Drake and Josh even notice that they can't see when they're driving with the hood open?
- If you look closely, you could see that the tip of the coat hanger is nowhere near hitting Josh's eye.
