Story

Longg

London at the age of seven in the Tipton Hotel

Cody and Bailey approach their friends to help out with their charity event, but London refuses to give anything. But when her magic talking mirror takes her to her past, present and future, she learns the importance of giving and being a good friend.

Meanwhile, Zack is unable to wake up early, so Mr. Moseby threatened that if he will not wake up early for his job on Christmas morning, Zack will be fired. For these reasons, Zack creates an elaborate robot that operates as quickly as possible.

At the end of the episode, London learns how lonely she will be if she does not give up her selfish ways. With that, London has a change of heart, and buys presents for the orphans and also gives all of her friends presents: Cody gets a plane ticket home to visit his mom, Zack gets a jet-pack, Moseby gets a solid gold Tipton coffee mug, and Bailey gets her closet back (much to her disappointment).
