That one Drake & Josh episode, Josh Is Done, where Josh basically breaks up with Drake because Drake screwed up something in Josh’s life yet again. (It basically ends with a tearful apology from Drake, which Drake Bell definitely put in his acting reel for awhile, before they make up and play ping pong.)

Great show. Hug me brotha.

I think what really highlight how genuinely good that apology was is how the teacher, who we see was a strict man (refused to let Josh do the exam because he was late by like 1-2 minutes, told him he could retake it but with one point automatically taken )asked Josh if he needed a moment to talk with Drake
