[edit] Plot

Zack and Cody miss the school bus, so Zack talks Cody into skipping school and going to the mall. Maddie tells London she heard that her father got remarried. London tells Maddie she wasn’t invited to the wedding because her father doesn’t like to waste money on weddings, because he saves it for divorce attorneys. Once they get there, Zack impersonates his mother and calls the school to say that they are both sick with food poisoning. Cody is worried about getting caught so Zack tells Cody he did this before that they have nothing to worry about.

At the mall, they enter a competition to be in an "Everything Stinks" music video with fake names, Cody entered as "Wing Lee" and 'Zack Martin' as 'Cody Martin'. Bob arrives at the mall after receiving a call from Zack. Mr. Tipton's new wife, Brandi Tipton, arrives at the hotel. Brandi is only a little older than London. Brandi questions why London isn't in school, but Maddie tells her they have the day off. Brandi wants to hang out with London at the spa. London thinks its horrible, but Maddie thinks its great. Brandi tells London she is moving out of the hotel and is going to be moving in with her and her father. London is furious and tells her it will be a cold day "in wherever it is always hot" before she leaves the hotel. Brandi grounds London so London calls her father, but he agrees with Brandi. "Wing Lee" is announced as the winner of the contest. Cody declares that nothing could go wrong with today.

After that, they see their mother at the shops, so they go to great trouble to hide from her. London refuses to talk to Brandi. Maddie finds out they both like shopping and tells them they can bond by doing that together. Maddie decides to skip work when Brandi tells her she will buy her anything she wants. The boys run into a clothing store which their mother decides to enter. They hide in a dressing room. Carey tries to enter the dressing room, but Cody tells her it is occupied. The saleswoman insults Carey about her size of clothing. Just then London enters the store with Maddie and Brandi. The saleswoman finds out that London and Carey know each other and complements Carey on her taste in clothing. As London introduces Brandi to Carey, Bob sneezes. Carey looks, but doesn't see anything. She leaves for the 49 cent store.

Maddie tries to talk London into being nice to Brandi so she can get free stuff. The boys sneak out of the clothing store when Maddie & London's back is turned. Cody meets the director for the Everything Stinks video. He is supposed to be a kid at the mall having a good time. London shows Maddie an outfit and asks if she likes it. Maddie does, but Brandi doesn't because it is too revealing. Maddie then changes her opinion. London tells Brandi that she doesn't need her in her life and she isn't her mother. Brandi tells London that she is going to be around for a long time. London tells her that is what stepmothers 1-3 said and points out the charms representing them on her bracelet. A hurt Brandi leaves.

Bob and Zack spot Carey watching the taping of the music video. Zack tries to alert Cody that she is watching. Cody tries to hide behind a hot dog cart, but accidentally hits two of the dancers. Carey goes in and confronts Cody. Zack and Bob try to make a run for it, but Carey catches both. Bob tries to leave and Carey informs him she will be calling his mother. He leaves to buy her something nice. Cody tells Carey that he learned today what it is like to have fun instead of doing homework all the time. Cody then says "But today, today I had fun, I said what the hey and lived!" As he kissed Matisse and she freezes. Carey tells him that it is nice, but Cody and Zack are not off the hook. London tells Mr. Moseby that she is upset with Brandi because she is trying to tell her what to do. Mr. Moseby tells London at least she is trying to be her friend unlike the other stepmothers. London agrees to give Brandi a chance and makes up with her. Carey tells Zack and Cody there will be no movies, television, or music for one month and Cody isn't allowed to read for fun. London then points out to her stepmother that she never reads for fun.

The music video is shown, as the credits roll.
