They tell her that they have a big barrel of it, and Cat eagerly exchanges her bike to by the barrel of bibble. She opens it and finds cotton swabs.

#TheBritBrats[1] is the 3rd episode of Sam & Cat.
Plot
Cat comes home from school to find Sam trying to finish an assignment of proof of four monthly hours of community service for online school. Her submission consists of clearly Photo Docked (photoshopped) pictures of herself feeding "homeless animals". Cat doesn't believe that these photos will get her a good mark, but the topic changes to that of a somewhat bland-tasting foreign fruit that Cat bought for Gwen and Ruby, two British girls they will babysit later, and then Sam brings up the fact that British kids like bibble, which makes Cat freak out.
When Gwen and Ruby arrive, Cat gets a text from Nona wanting her to help her set up a bingo game, so Sam goes to Elderly Acres to get Nona to sign her assignment form. However, in order to do so, Sam must actually do community service requirement to get the signature she needs. Nona asks Sam to help her set up a good bingo game because Nona desperately wants people to like it, and makes a deal that in return for Sam's cooperation, she will sign the form. Sam reluctantly obliges.
Dice then visits Cat, selling here a 'spife' (a hybrid of a spoon and a knife) and offers one to Gwen and Ruby. Gwen texts her uncle to see if she can buy one, but Dice sees that the phone is a PearPhone 6, which has not been released yet. They reveal that their father is the PearPhone owner and has all the new PearPhone months before the release for public. Dice asks if he can buy one, and Gwen eventually yes when he proposes to buy 5 phones for $500.

Trivia
- This episode was filmed from February 11, 2013 to February 15, 2013.
- Sophia Grace and Rosie guest star in this episode as Gwen and Ruby.
- Bibble appeared in this episode. [3]
- In one of the transitions, one of the pictures is a photo Mr. Oldmen from The Amanda Show, who gets prank called.
- The fruit which Cat calls "Plum figgels" is actually Dragon fruit.
- Gwen and Ruby break the fourth wall during the credits.
- The PearPhone 6 appeared for the first time in this episode.
- The instrumental that Sam played in Extreme Bingo is a parody of Carly Rae Jepsen song "Tonight I'm Getting Over You".
- When acting out the dialogue with Sam, Cat says "Yag!" and Sam tells her "You're supposed to say 'Yay!'". When Cat says the correct line, Sam mouths "sorry". Her somewhat mediocre way of spelling out words when typing in a hurry was referenced in an episode of iCarly where Sam hurriedly sent Carly a series of texts to tell her what to say to defend her, but the word "girl" in one of the texts was accidentally replaced with "girf".
- The Elder of the Month on the wall of Elderly Acres is Nona.
- The cast shot a video dancing to the Harlem Shake during the production of this episode.[4]
- This is the prequel to #RevengeOfTheBritBrats.
- The program that Sam uses to make the picture of her feeding a donkey is GIMP.
Allusions
- Sitcoms from the 80s and 90s are referenced when the uncle says "Cheers" before leaving Gwen and Ruby, and Sam and Cat reply with "Seinfeld" and "Friends".
- Nona says "You can twit about it on your Tweeter", referring to Twitter and tweeting. However, she mixed up the words. It is unknown if this was intentional as a joke or if it is part of the Sam & Cat universe. In iCarly, tweeting is mentioned, making it likely that Twitter exists in the Sam & Cat universe than the supposed "Tweeter".
- Also, it could be a reference to the Austin & Ally episode Soups & Stars where they use the social network site 'Tweeter' and they post 'twits'.
- Dice saying "The British are coming" is a reference to Paul Revere.
- Cat saying "Shut up and take my money" is a reference to Futurama episode "Attack of the Killer App".
Character revelations
- According to Ruby, the sisters have previously been in jail. The cop asks if they want to end up in jail and the girls reply with "No!" and "Not again!"
Goofs
- Gwen and Ruby are seen riding to Elderly Acres on Cat's bike, but the bike is only for one person.
- Sam ate the "plum figgel", which is a dragon fruit in the real world, by biting directly into it. Dragon fruits aren't meant to have the outer shell eaten.
- In the ending credits, Gwen and Ruby are calling for help in the dumpster, but they would know how to get out since the fake policeman led them in.
- Probably they thought they 'd get arrested if the policeman wouldn't led them out.
Running gags
- Someone referring to the spife.
- Cat's bibble addiction.
Series continuity
- Sam is seen with the same backpack she wore in iCarly.
- Cat still has her bibble addiction from "Tori Goes Platinum".
- Cat smells Ruby's breath after she discovers that Ruby is eating bibble. She did much the same thing to Mason Thornsmith's son in the Victorious episode "Robbie Sells Rex".
- Gwen yells: "All right you ganks, let's play some bingo!" after securing card #54. The word "gank" was often used in the Victorious series. The word was usually said in relation to Jade when she acted in an extremely mean fashion.
- When acting out the dialogue with Sam, Cat says "Yag!" and Sam tells her "You're supposed to say 'Yay!'". When Cat says the correct line, Sam mouths "sorry". Her somewhat mediocre way of spelling out words when typing in a hurry was referenced in an episode of iCarly where Sam hurriedly sent Carly a series of texts to tell her what to say to defend her, but the word "girl" in one of the texts was accidentally replaced with "girf".
- This episode begins the running gag of Dice's hairs.
