[edit] Plot synopsis

When their parents leave for Los Angeles for the weekend, Drake, Josh, and Megan are left home alone, and the boys are in charge. Drake irresponsibly spends all of the $200 that they were given to buy food, and they have to find a way to get more money. The boys decide to pretend that their home is a bed-and-breakfast. This pays well when one couple spends the night there, but then Drake brings 75 college students to the house. Things get worse; Megan finds out, and MTV sets up cameras at the house and broadcasts the party on TV. Josh desperately gets his boss Helen to come and end the party, but she finds herself as part of it.

Meanwhile, their parents are in Los Angeles, flipping through the TV channels, when they come across MTV, and notice the studio looks familiar. They call home and say they are coming. Drake and Josh enlist Megan's help to get the college students to leave. They come up with the idea that "monoxopuff gas", a fictional gas which makes one's eyes bleed, exists in the house. They pump green dye from the brothers' room through the ventilation system. Drake and Josh run down to the living room and tell the guests about the "monoxopuff" and points to a vent, where the green dye was being emitted. The people leave in a panic, and Drake, Josh, and Megan get the house cleaned up before their parents get home. Unfortunately, after Drake, Josh, and Megan head upstairs to turn off the "monoxopuff", the police arrive and arrest the parents for hosting a televised event in their home without a license. Drake, Josh, and Megan get back downstairs after the police take the parents down to the police station and wonder where they are.
