[edit] Plot

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

London starts a rumor that Maddie and Lance the Lifeguard are back together. The story escalates to Maddie and Lance are getting married and moving to vineyard in Las Vegas to become blackjack dealers. In reality, Lance was teaching Maddie CPR. Maddie is so angry with London that she accidentally tells a reporter that London is a hypocrite and keeps a fox fur coat in her closet. London, who was receiving an award from the Animal League for kindness to animals is villified in the press. The supposed fox coat is actually a faux coat; Maddie misunderstood when London had previously pronounced "faux" as "fox". In the end, London recognizes that rumors can be hurtful. She tells everyone the truth about Maddie, so Maddie fakes a scenario in front of the press where London saves the life of a chinchilla. London's reputation is restored.

Mr. Moseby bans both twins from the game room because Zack was stealing free games. Cody is tired of getting in trouble when Zack does something wrong, so he decides he needs to look different than his identical twin. After a failed attempt at hip hop clothing, Cody dyes his hair a honey mist auburn only to discover to his horror that it is bright red (essentially the color of Raggedy Andy). An official from the Week in Washington that Cody applied for comes to interview him. Embarrassed by his hair, Cody gets Zack to pretend to be him. Zack is unable to give coherent answers to the officials questions as he tries to guess Cody's intent who is doing charades to tell him the answers. After Cody's hair returns to normal, he learns he has been accepted to the Week in Washington program - the official was impressed by his unusual sense of humor.
