"Doin' Time in Suite 2330" is the 20th episode of the third season of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. After one of the twins gets grounded, London hires Maddie to be Yay Me!'s producer. But determined to win an award, Cody sneaks out and hooks London up with The Cheetah Girls, despite Maddie recently booking Chris Brown.

Story[]

Zack and Cody get in trouble for crashing and totaling a wedding, prompting the enraged attendees to chase and tackle them in the lobby. For this, as well as getting Mr. Moseby injured by the angry bride (mainly off-screen), Carey punishes them and confines them to the suite without any possibility of entertainment as Zack and Cody feel that they are put in jail by the warden. With Cody grounded, Maddie has to take over as producer of London's Internet show. In order to win the Golden Netty Award, Cody sneaks out and gets The Cheetah Girls to guest star for London's show but is shocked when he discovers Maddie has recently booked Chris Brown for the show. Carey, having remained in the suite eating her way through a huge bag of Cheap Charlie's pretzels (small version, due to the large that don't fit in the car), is visited by Mr. Moseby and tells him what great kids they are after Mr. Moseby tells Carey that he is glad that Carey finally puts two sons in lockdown.... and eventually goes berserk upon discovering they set up a recording to fool her and snuck out. Finding them dancing online, she storms the production and confronts her wayward twins for their misbehavior and the damage to the vent that Mr. Moseby mentioned. Zack points out she gets angry and screams at them on a live broadcast, only to be scared out of his wits when she physically grabs him and screams "I DON'T CARE!!" right in his face. As Carey rants about how sick she is of the limitless cycle of breaking rules, grounding and sneaking out, Zack tactlessly suggests she break it by not grounding them this time ("Oh, dude!" is Cody's response). At this, Carey gets angry and becomes fed up as she furiously goes ballistic (to put it gently) and sentences them to be grounded until the sun collapses into a black hole and the tail-end, pathetic remnants of humanity are stuck on a very small spaceship being driven mad by the silence and torment. Brown's comment on her own mental health status prompts Carey to round furiously on him, causing those celebrities to cower where they stand and beg her not to ground them as well with London telling all of them that they are out of time as Carey agrees. Zack, Cody, and Mr. Moseby are then ordered to march out of the suite as London closes the show.

In the last part where Zack and Cody are confined to the suite once again, it turns out Maddie and Cody both win the Golden Netty Award and Carey ends up as the top download of the week as "Ranting-Mom", much to Carey's surprise and London is interviewing Bigfoot on the show.

Quotes[]

Carey: I am so steamed right now, that if I were a mirror, you couldn't see yourself. Zack, what were you thinking?!
- Zack: Well, you see--
- Carey: I don't want to hear it! Cody, what was going through your mind?
- Cody: It's just that--
- Carey: Zip it, mister!
- Zack: We didn't mean to ruin the wedding. It's just that we saw they had those mini hot dogs we love, and I'm weak. I need help.
- Cody: And they had the three kinds of mustard. The jalapeno dijon was fabulous.
- Zack: Really? I thought it was too spicy.
- Cody: Why are you afraid of flavor?
- Zack: I'm not afraid of flavor...
- Carey: GUYS!!! I don't care about the dang dipping sauces! I care that you crashed a wedding!
- Cody: It's not like anyone got hurt.
- Mr. Moseby: I beg to differ! (he comes in, covered with cake's frosting) I don't know what hurt more. This little bride that jabbed me in the kidneys or the real one who kicked me in the shins.
- Carey: I hope you had your fun because your life is gonna be fun-free for the rest of the week. You're grounded.
- Mr. Moseby: Might I suggest 20 years on an island with giant boy-eating birds?
- Carey: You might. Odd, but you might. Boys, go to your room.
- Zack/Cody: (sigh) Yes, ma'am.
- Carey: Mr. Moseby, sit down. I'll clean you off.
- Mr. Moseby: Ow! Here comes the groom.

Carey: Aha! Put those games down. Get out here. Okay. Apparently, your room is too much fun. From now on, you’re grounded in the living room.
- Zack: Okay.
- Carey: (turns off TV) And no TV.
- Zack: Aw, man!
- Cody: Zack, we don't need television and video games to entertain ourselves.
- Carey: And no baking.
- Cody: Aw, man!
- Zack: You heard Mom. Why don't we just sit here and think about what we have done?

London: Cody! Come on. We have to get ready for the next fabulous episode of the webshow that's sweeping the nation Yay Me! starring London Tipton.
- Carey: They can't go. They're being punished.
- London: Well, I need Cody to produce Yay Me! starring London.
- Carey: Stop that!
- London: So, Cody, you're officially un-punished.
- Carey: London, you can't do that he's my son.
- London: Oh, I get it. I get it. How much do want for him?
- Zack: Ooh, buy me, too.
- London: Okey-dokey. I'll take them both. But, I wanna deal for the second one.
- Carey: London, you can't buy my sons. (Zack belches) We talking cash?
- London: Uh-huh.
- Carey: (refuses to accept the offer) No, no.
- London: Okay, fine. I'll rent them. I'll... (Carey closes the down on London)

Cody: What are you doing?
- Zack: You can make your toes look like little tiny people. This one's name is Pinky, and this one's name is Mr. Zimmelman.
- Cody: Yeah? Well, maybe Mr. Zimmelman can find a way for me to get The Cheetah Girls without leaving the suite, which is a grounding violation.
- Zack: You sicken me. And Mr. Z. Can't leave the suite. What a joke. Oh! I wonder what'll happen if I do this? Whoa! Nothing happened. I'm in. I'm out. I'm in. I'm out. Now my right arm's in, and now my right arm's out.
- Cody: If you hokey pokey, I'm gonna slap you all about.
- Zack: Come on, Cody. Take a risk. One that doesn't involve using a new brand (in high voice) of fabric softener.
- Cody: Good point.

Cody: (on recording) Zack, do you have any nines?
- Zack: (on recording) Nope. Go fish. Do you have any twos?
- Cody: Nope. Go fish. Do you have any jokers?
- Zack: Oh! All right, take them out, and let's start over.

Cody: You know, it's funny, we've been crawling around in these vents for years without any problems and these things are only meant to carry air.
- Zack: And we're bigger than we used to be.
- Cody: And if you think about it, I'm amazed that these things can hold us up.
- Zack: Well, chalk it up to good old American craftsmanship. (as the vent creaks)
- Zack/Cody: Uh-oh!

Carey: Wow, I'm thirsty. (knocking on a door) Come in. Oh, hey, Mr. Moseby. What brings you up here? Hotel too quiet now that the boys are in lockdown?
- Mr. Moseby: Well, that is actually why I came up. I have often said that you are a terrible mother.
- Carey: You have?
- Mr. Moseby: Mostly to other people. But I must admit, this time you have really laid down the law.
- Carey: Thank you, Mr. Moseby.

Carey: (sternly) Boys, I am so disappointed in you two. You deliberately disobeyed me!
- Mr. Moseby: And broke my vent!
- Zack: Uh, just a heads up, Mom. You’re yelling at us on an international broadcast.
- Carey: Oh, really? I didn’t realize. (becomes extremely angry) I DON'T CARE!!! I am so sick of this constant cycle of breaking the rules, getting grounded, sneaking out, getting grounded, breaking the rules...
- Zack: Well, maybe you can break the cycle his time by not grounding us.
- Cody: Oh, dude!
- Carey: (to Zack & Cody furiously) Oh, that is it! You are beyond grounded. The next time you see sunlight. Oh, actually, no! You're never going to see sunlight again. Because by the time your punishment is over, the sun will have burnt out, collapsed into a black hole, and the last remnants of mankind will be living on a rusty little spaceship as the cold silence of space slowly drives them MAAAAAAD!!!
- Chris Brown: I think she's halfway there.
- The Cheetah Girls: (laugh)
- Carey: I HEARD THAT!!!
- (Chris Brown and The Cheetah Girls cower)
- Adrienne Bailon: We're not laughing at you, we're laughing with you!
- Kiely Williams: Please don't ground us.
- Sabrina Bryan: We have a concert tonight. We are playing at the…
- London: Well, it looks like we’re out of time.
- Carey: Oh, you said it. March!
- Mr. Moseby: Just going to get Chris Brown‘s autograph for my...
- Carey: MARCH!!!
- Mr. Moseby: Okay.

London: (reading the questions off a card) So, do you enjoy living in the vast forest of the great northwest?
- Chris Brown: I live in a loft in New York.
- London: Interesting, interesting. (reads the next question) Do you have trouble finding shoes with such big feet?
- Chris Brown: I only wear size 11.
- Maddie: London, those are the questions for Bigfoot!
- Chris Brown: Bigfoot's on the show?

Maddie: We need someone that no one's ever done before!
- London: Oh, I know! Bigfoot!
- Maddie: London, Bigfoot is a legend.
- London: Which makes him perfect!

Carey: No laughing in the big house.
- Zack: Um, do I get a last meal?
- Carey: Yes, and I'm cooking it.
- Zack: Aren't I being punished enough?
- Maddie: Guess what? We won the Golden Netty. (both cheering)
- Zack: So what put you over the top? Chris Brown or The Cheetah Girls?
- Maddie: Neither. They loved "Ranting Mom". It was the top download of the week!
- Carey: I was the top download of the week?!
- Maddie: Yeah! And they have all these cool remixes where lightning bolts come out of your eyes and smoke comes out of your ears.
- Carey: Shut up!
- Maddie: I know!
