Story
Zack and Cody are bored from their jobs, but when a spy climbs aboard taking out another spy the night suddenly gets exciting. They try to get away without the spy finding them, but fail. James Smith the spy gets the boys to sign a confidentiality contract and then drinks a week old Prune Wiz, he gets sick and goes rushing into the women's bathroom, while the boys rush off to tell Mr. Moseby about the spy, which Mr. Moseby doesn't believe and just waves them off. Zack then gets a text from Mr. Smith telling them that he is in Zack's room, the text then "explodes" shown by smoke coming from the phone.
Rushing off to see what the spy wants, the boys run into Bailey and London. The boys lie to Bailey and London about what they are doing. Bailey gets mad and demands the truth which makes Cody tell her everything, but she still doesn't believe them.When they reach Zack's room, they find out that Agent Smith is still sick from the Prune Wiz and is confined near the bathroom the rest of the night. He then enlists Zack and Cody for their help and with a little persuading, the boys decide to help. Zack and Cody then sneak into a party looking for a woman named Red Finger named after her red finger, who has possession of the microchip the boys need to get. Bailey, searches for Cody an can't find him. This causes Bailey to become angrier with Cody about how he isn’t telling her the truth. But, even when Cody tells her the truth, she still doesn’t believe him. Later, the boys ask London to read palms so they can find Red Finger.
However, their mission isn’t over when they are captured by opposing spies. Tied to chairs, they try to text Bailey for help, but that fails miserably. Red Finger then comes in and tells them that Agent Smith is a liar. The twins then go off trying to find Agent Smith to take the microchip back from him. They enlist London’s help again, this time to read feet, to get his shoe which has the microchip in it. Zack and Cody then rush off with the chip only to run into Bailey. Bailey is mad at Cody and refuses to talk to him, but finally believes his story when she sees the rope burns on his wrists. Cody gives her the chip to protect it, but he makes her promise not to look at it.
Zack and Cody then meet up with both Red Finger and Agent Smith. They both tell the boys the other is a liar, and each asks for the chip. Bailey then comes in with the chip and loses it to the spies. Mr. Moseby, now believing the boys, takes the chip, not giving it back until he finds out who it belongs to. Bailey says it doesn’t matter anyways, for she found out that it only had a secret mayonnaise recipe on it. The spies were of competing sandwich associations. Red Finger states that she is with the CIA, (Condiment Institute of America) while Agent Smith was with the NSA (National Sandwich Alliance). Bailey ended up giving the recipe to her aunt Myrtle who posted it for the town to see, making it no longer a secret. Cody gets mad at Bailey, for he trusted her, but she betrayed his trust by looking at the microchip. She kisses him on the lips, and he forgives her immediately.
