A Nickelodeon Made for TV Movie starring iCarly actors Jennette McCurdy and Jerry Trainor. Trainor is Quincy, the gamer living in his parents' basement. Except his parents are selling the house. Conveniently, his helpful friend Wendell (played by Amir Talai) informs him of a video game tournament with a cash prize. Cash enough for him to buy the house himself. But the heretofore undefeated Quincy meets his match when he comes across a mysterious gamer called "Prodigy" that crushes him mercilessly. Quincy and Wendell set out to discover who this Prodigy is and find his weaknesses. Except, they find, Prodigy is a sixteen year old Chris Sanders (McCurdy). Whose mom thinks Quincy is her internet date... A fairly light-hearted comedy. Also has Janet Varney as the Hot Mom.


"I love her so much I could barf out my heart."

Quincy: "What's the one thing you need to qualify?"
Wendell: "...Hands?"

  • Dark Horse Victory
  • Deadpan Snarker: Chris.
  • Eat the Evidence: Played with in that the evidence is a note that's supposedly from Ash to Chris, asking if she wants to go to the prom. When the note turns out to have been a setup to embarrass Chris with, Sheldon races over and gobbles it down.
  • Face Heel Turn: Sort of. There's no real "good" side or "evil" side here, but Wendell definitely does turn traitor.
  • Gamer Chick: Chris.
  • Moment Killer: Chris, at least once.
    • "Were you guys about to kiss? Gross."
  • On the Money: Subverted. Quincy needs $175,000 to buy his parents' house. The Black Hole tournament offers $175,500.

"I could pay off the house and still have enough money left over for that vibrating gaming chair!"
