"Twins at the Tipton" is the 11th episode of the second season of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. After Mr. Moseby hosts a twin convention, Zack and Cody go out with beautiful English twin girls, but Zack is kicked aside when Cody's emotions break down. Maddie and London go on a double date with fraternal twins, and Maddie is repulsed by her date while London gets the "good" one.
Story[]
The Tipton hosts a "Twins" convention. Zack gets excited when he talks two beautiful twin girls from England into going out with him and Cody. Reluctantly, Cody agrees to go along for Zack's sake, feeling miserable the entire evening, since his girlfriend had just dumped him the day before. The twin sisters feel sympathy for Cody (even remembering old relationships of theirs that ended badly), so both attach themselves to him, leaving Zack out in the cold.
As he always does in a situation like this, Zack complains to his mom how his brother's ultra-sensitivity had fumbled his plans with a girl again. But much to Zack's dismay, Carey ends up siding with Cody, pointing out that what happened to Zack was karma -- Zack, out of selfishness, tried pushing Cody into something when he clearly wasn't ready for it, and explains that it will probably be a little while before Cody will feel ready to start dating again. But ironically, just after after Carey says that, Cody finally comes back home with the English twin sisters, he's happy and completely over what happened between him and his previous girlfriend.
Meanwhile, Maddie and London go on a double date with twin brothers Dirk and Kirk. Both fall for and fight over the good-looking Kirk, who offers for one of them to instead date his more intelligent twin. Maddie hastily accepts on the assumption that the two are identical, but in fact they are fraternal twins. She is horrified to discover that Dirk is a gawky nerd. Although the four try to have a good date, Dirk drives everyone crazy by constantly bringing up disgusting and disturbing scientific facts. Maddie eventually cannot handle his behavior anymore and tells London she wants to leave. Dirk walks in and admits that he knows he is neither handsome nor charming, but Maddie reassures him that there is still hope. He also seems to imply that he wants a second chance with Maddie, and she accepts his offer. However, he is actually talking about London, only wanting Maddie to help him steal her from Kirk. Offended, Maddie dumps a pitcher of water on his head and storms off.
