[edit] Plot

Zack plays sick pranks on Cody and Esteban. First he frightens Cody then he embarasses Esteban with a fart machine. (Presumably he does it to everyone else.) At that point London tells everyone about the ghost of Suite 613. Zack wants to see it but Cody does not want to go along. A skeptical Maddie says there is no ghost but London claims that she saw it. It frightened her so much she dropped her purse there. At that Zack, Cody, London and Maddie go upstairs to find it and the $1000 bill London reputedly left there.

On the 6th floor they hear story of Suite 613 A.K.A The Haunted Suite from Muriel. According to her, a beautiful woman named Irene and her husband checked in the Tipton for their honeymoon night. But her husband betrayed her when he fell in love with an Italian woman and opened up a pizza parlor in Naples, Italy. But one night, angered by her husband,Irene threw her hairbrush at a mirror and it shattered into a thousand pieces. The sharp points of the glass hurtled toward her neck, slitting it and killing her.

The group went into the suite and got scared enough that they felt like leaving. When London discovered her purse, it was empty. Irene had taken her money (of course not realizing what a ghost would need with money). After hearing a story from Mr. Moseby about his encounter with Irene, Zack makes a bet with Cody that he couldn't stay one night at Suite 613. London, Maddie and Esteban come with them.

After entering Suite 613, they get scared when they hear ghost noises and see a strange figure holding and eating a strange object. But it turns out to be Arwin eating a sub. Arwin has a mysterious invention that detects ghosts and their ectoplasmic manifestions. The invention beeps when a ghost is around. They see something dead wrong with a picture of Irene. The painting of Irene's eyeballs and face is moving. Arwin gets so scared that he runs out of the suite, screaming.

Esteban claims the ghost as "ghostie" and also claims he can speak with ghosts. When Esteban attempts to contact the ghost,he says "Hola, ghostie. Welcome to our--Ahh!" and starts making choking noises. Esteban gets possessed by the spirit of Irene. Then Esteban starts saying in Irene's voice "Who dares call me in the afterlife?" They start to get scared and smell pizza. "Does anyone smell pizza?" London asks to the rest of the group. Irene hates pizza and gets angry. Maddie taunts Irene and disappears. Everyone else disappears except Zack. Zack encounters scary things and it all turns out to be a sick prank to get him for the prank he did on Cody, putting itching powder in Arwin's coveralls and making gassy noises come from Esteban and sending London a fake love letter from Orlando Bloom, which was actually done by Maddie. When Cody taunts Zack, he chases him to the hall where they are met by Moseby, their mother, and a guest. Carey is incredulous (and secretly delighted) that Cody played a practical joke on Zack but makes him apologize anyway. When the guest explains that people would pay extra to stay in a haunted room Moseby advertises everything.

Cody wonders where his blanket is. A woman shows up with Cody's blanket and gives it to him. The woman suddenly walks into the picture of Irene. The boys realize it was the real ghost of Irene and runs out of the suite, screaming.

[edit] Goofs

  • Cody is shown sitting by the table with one hand on the table to his left. It is presumably Estebans hand, but on the next shot Esteban's hands are by his sides.
  • Before Arwin enters Suite 613, we can't see his Ghost Detector but we can see his sub amd his flashlight. When he enters the Suite, the detector appears and the sub and flashlight dissapear.
  • When Zack first tries to run out of the room, the knob comes off of the door, however, when Arwin closes the door with special effects, the knob is back.
  • When Moseby enters the suite, Cody runs for London to hold him but he falls, the camera angle changes and Cody stands there like nothing happened.
  • Why did it not occur to Esteban to use a luggage cart to move London's trunk instead of carrying it on his back?
  • They say Arwin lives with his mother but in many other episodes Zack and Cody visit him in his office and in the episode with Tippy the horse, it is shown that Arwin sleeps in his office.

[edit] Trivia

  • When they are in the scene by the elevator there is a corner in the wall and there is a door that has 614 enprinted in the plaque but when they are by the door to suite 613 the door to suite 614 is on the other side of the corner.
  • When Arwin is wearing the welding mask, he quotes and sounds like Darth Vader.
  • This episode reveals that Arwin lives with his mother.
  • 11th appearance of Esteban
  • 11th appearance of Muriel
  • 5th appearance of Arwin
  • It is revealed Mr. Moseby started his job at the Tipton as a bellhop.
  • This episode was aired around Halloween.
  • the scene when Esteban was channeling and possesed was a reference to The Exorcist (film).
  • This episode never aired in the UK.
  • This episode was aired the same night as the DCOM Twitches.
  • 613 is the channel number for Disney Channel UK and Disney Channel +1 Italy.
  • Running gag: Esteban hurts his back carrying heavy luggage on it. It was also the case in A Midsummer's Nightmare and Nurse Zack. For a smart bellboy it never occurs to him to use the luggage carts.
  • Won't Arwin go the other way towards 620 because the next room was 614?
  • This is one out of the few that Zack says "mommy" in a soft voice.
