Drake performs a song called, "Makes Me Happy" for a music deal. While at Spin City Records, they agree to put Drake's song on a commercial that will air during the Super Bowl. In the meantime, Helen's getting married and her grandmother, Lula, comes to stay at Drake and Josh's house for a week, forcing Megan to share the boys' room.
Helen then announces the new assistant manager, who turns out to be Mindy Crenshaw. Josh is very upset that he didn't get the job, and accuses Mindy of constantly trying to one-up him, which she denies. While at the recording studio at Spin City Records, Josh becomes enthralled by giant shrimp ("It's prawn") and fails to carefully read the contract, inadvertently signing away the creativity rights to Drake's song. The producers then make drastic changes to the song and Drake hates it, saying it's ruined. Angry with Josh for his mistake, Drake fires him as manager, then hatches a plan for revenge: fruit flies in the producer's car. He tells Josh that when people play dirty, sometimes, you have to play dirty back. He scorns Josh for always playing by the rules, stating "That's why you'll always be a loser."
Still trying to fix his mistake, Josh returns to Spin City Records. After being told there is no way the company will use Drake's original song, Josh switches the ruined song with the original song as it is being picked up. The plan succeeds, and Drake's version of "Makes Me Happy" plays on the commercial- but with a price. Right after the commercial airs, Josh receives a call from Alan Krim, the producer. By switching the songs, Josh has broken a legally binding contract, and not only is the record company is planning to sue the boys for $5 million, the two could also go to prison.
While at work, Josh realizes that Mindy did not take the job as assistant manager because she needed the extra money; she did it in order to spend time with Josh. Then the boys go to Spin City Records and just as they think they are going to jail, it turns out that instead, Drake's song becomes a number one hit! They celebrate outside the room and Krim is livid. The manager tells him they had to scam them, otherwise Drake wouldn't be popular. They are free of all charges and Alan Krim is fired.
At Helen's wedding, amidst a few small disasters, Josh and Mindy get back together. Mindy has quit her job and Josh becomes the new assistant manager. Drake also rehires him as his manager. Then Drake performs his number one hit song to the whole crowd. Afterwards, Drake and Josh return home to find shrimp sent over from Nick Matteo. Megan and her friends have eaten all but one, which causes Drake and Josh to fight over it, mimicking a similar scene from The Amanda Show, which is shown during the credits
Drake Parker (Bell) and Josh Nichols (Peck)'s parents leave to go on a ten-day cruise, leaving Drake and Josh in charge. But when Drake and Josh accidentally put their little sister Megan (Miranda Cosgrove) on the wrong flight to Los Angeles, when she was supposed to visit her friend in Colorado, Drake and Josh leave to search for her in L.A., Once Drake and Josh figure out that she is okay, they decide to stay in L.A. for a while. But, Josh finds out that his G.O. (an MP3 player) was accidentally replaced with another guy's G.O. When the guy and his companion have a little "talk" with Drake and Josh on the G.O's, Drake and Josh run around L.A in a stolen Viper which happens to be Tony Hawk's.
When they think they have lost them, Drake and Josh get pulled over by the F.B.I. But, the two "cops" happen to be two more guys who work with the other two guys. They kidnap Drake and Josh and take them to a warehouse and lock them away. Back when Drake and Josh were at the airport back in San Diego, Josh watched the news about some crooks who stole a money machine from the U.S Treasury Department three days ago. Josh figures out that they were the crooks. After making $500 million, the crooks decide that they are going to try to drown Drake and Josh in the ocean.
Meanwhile, Megan finds one of the crooks wallet in her hotel room. She has her limousine driver take her to the warehouse, where she finds Drake and Josh. She alerts the police, but the connection goes out. Therefore, she sneaks into the warehouse and cuts on the large fan, which blows around all of the money. In all of the chaos, Drake and Josh finally escape after a large action sequence. The police come and arrest the crooks. Megan uses the money she acquires from the warehouse to help her get to Denver, giving it as a tip to the limo driver. Josh remembers that he met a guy in the hotel bathroom about having Drake to play on TRL. As a reward for capturing the crooks, the police offers to give Drake an escort to Sunset Studios. They drive to TRL using Tony Hawk's Viper, which Tony's manager gives them permission to use because he has two more. They arrive to TRL in time, which Drake performs his new song, "Hollywood Girl". After his performance, Drake and Josh cruise around and enjoy L.A with their dates. Note: It is unknown at the end if the girls stayed in Los Angeles or went with Drake and Josh.
The film starts off with Walter and Audrey as they leave for a tropical vacation. Drake and Megan return home and Josh shows them his snowman air balloon decoration. Megan cuts the string, making the snowman glide away leading to Josh running after it. The scene shifts to Drake and Josh going to the Premiere. Drake tells Josh that he will be throwing a Christmas party on the roof of the Premiere, which Josh doesn't approve of at first because he isn't sure that Helen would allow it. Drake tells him that he has already talked to Helen about it and that its alright as long as she is invited (and if there's churros).
Helen hands Drake a Santa Costume to wear in the mall. Josh is upset because Helen told him that he couldn't be Santa (since he lost weight over the years). Meanwhile Audrey and Walter make it to their island, which turns out to be a disaster. Back at the mall, Drake makes out with a teenage girl. Josh is annoyed and yells at them both which leads to the girl leaving. One of the other people, which happens be to an overweight woman, waiting in line for Santa wants a kiss from Drake, starts chasing him until she gets one. He hides and he meets a little girl named Mary Alice Johansson (Bailee Madison). She says she and her family want the best Christmas ever. He made a Christmas promise he will do so; but it is said in the film that "you can't break a Christmas promise", and Drake doesn't realize he will have to give her family the "best Christmas ever".
Next they're at Drake's Christmas party on the roof of the Premiere at the party, Mindy has to leave to go and visit her grandparent's leaving Josh upset. Crazy Steve shows up in front of Drake and Josh, and shows them a wood chipper called Sally on his cell phone. Craig and Eric come and tell Drake that the last song was great and he should perform it in the Christmas parade, but Drake says that he is going to Las Vegas for Christmas to hear a band play, and Josh gets upset. Later on, a few party crashers come to the party, wrecking the tables and food bowls. When Josh calls the police, they inadvertently mistake him for one of the party crashers and arrest him. Not watching Drake, Josh falls off the roof and lands in the back of a pickup truck. The truck drivers drive off with the cops on their tail (in the truck, the Miranda Cosgrove song Christmas Wrapping plays).
When the truck drivers drive around an intersection, Josh flies out, making the cops grab him. After Josh is arrested and sent to jail, he meets his prison roommate, Bludge (Kimbo Slice). At first, Bludge tries to beat him up, until Josh entertains Bludge with magic tricks. This makes Bludge change his mind about Josh. However, he says he claims he has to beat him up, so he can protect his reputation in jail. Bludge and Josh bang on the walls with Josh pretending to shout in pain, to get others to believe Josh is getting beat up.
Mary Alice brings up a story of how she has a sick foster mom and a busy foster dad, Once she finishes her story. Drake knowing he has to fulfill that promise, attempts to break Josh out to help him. But Drake is caught immediately after, landing both Drake and Josh in trouble. Drake and Josh are sent to court. Helen comes in as their lawyer. Helen tells Judge Newman (Henry Winkler) that Drake has made a promise to Mary Alice that he'd give her the best Christmas ever. Then the judge says that he won't send them to jail as long as they fulfill that promise.
They meet the cruel and embittered Officer Perry Gilbert, who says that he will take a vote from Mary Alice's family on Christmas asking them if they had the best Christmas ever. If one of them says no they must go to jail for a long time. The duo soon meet Mary Alice's foster family, which include Lily and Violet (Camille and Cosette Goldstein), two consist pounding-on-each-other twins, Zigfee (David Gore)a foreign guy who speaks an unknown language, Trey (Daven Wilson),a know-it-all, and Luke (Devon Graye) a grumpy teenager who is often lonely. They find many ways to give Mary Alice's family the best Christmas ever, but their attempts are foiled by much interference from Officer Gilbert. Drake and Josh confront their sister, Megan, asking her to sabotage Officer Gilbert's doings by bribing her with a rare vintage oboe. However, after hearing that the oboe does not exist, Megan gives up her promise to Drake and Josh. At the Christmas parade, Officer Gilbert tricks Crazy Steve (who arrives in a DeLorean with the license plate CRAZY 1) into "reminding" the two in front of Mary Alice that they were only being kind to her so that they wouldn't go to prison. Mary Alice and her family leave and threaten to vote "no" when the courthouse asks them to vote, thinking jail as punishment for Drake and Josh for tricking the family. Crazy Steve then left in his DeLorean, and as he did, his licence plate fell off and spun around before falling down flat on the road, which was a reference to the movie Back to the Future.
Josh goes to visit Officer Gilbert's mother and claims he must hate him and Drake somehow for making his life miserable. His mother remarks Officer Gilbert does not hate them; he hates Christmas. Then, she tells Josh how Officer Gilbert always wanted a pet monkey for Christmas when he was eight, how on Christmas morning, in a cage, a monkey is sitting there right by the tree, how the monkey goes berserk after he lets the monkey out, how it attacks him, smashes the presents, knocks down the tree, destroying the ornaments, and pees on him, and how he has hated Christmas ever since. Drake and Josh realize since Christmas was ruined for him, he wants to ruin it for everyone else.
So the duo sends Officer Gilbert a sweet baby monkey as a Christmas present, completely changing him in personality. They try to use Crazy Steve's wood chipper, Sally, to make it snow in front of Mary Alice's house. The wood chipper shoots large chunks of ice through the neighborhood where Mary Alice lives and causes more trouble as it destroys everything and nearly kills Mary Alice and her family. The chipper knocks out Drake and Josh and the now-kind Officer Gilbert and other officers take them home. The next morning, Officer Gilbert explained to Mary Alice and her family what really happened, and that Drake and Josh weren't really trying to use them to stay out of prison.
They have Officer Gilbert and other officers arrest them and bring them to the living room, where Mary Alice's family and other people surprised them. They then have the vote on whether they all had the best Christmas ever or not, and everyone votes "yes". Josh's former cell mate Bludge comes dressed as Santa Claus to deliver gifts to Mary Alice's family, including a Smith Royal oboe for Megan. Then Mindy arrives too. Crazy Steve gets "Sally" to make snow by using 7 thousand pounds of "hard cheese" and Mary Alice and her family and all the other people enjoyed it. Drake and Josh's parents then arrive home from their troubled vacation at their "bungalow", which blew away in a tropical storm. As everybody plays in the "cheese snow", the movie ends with the camera backing up and entire scenery becomes a snowglobe showing the words "The End".
