Synopsis[]
Maddie and the high school prom committee prepare for the big dance at the Tipton. Maddie has a crush on an upperclassman, and needs London to book a famous rock band as the entertainment. Zack teaches Maddie how to dance and he thinks that she likes him when she says that there is a "three-year age difference". When the prom begins, Zack finds out that Maddie liked a different guy and becomes really depressed. But when the band doesn't show up at the Tipton, Zack gets a band of carnival freaks, the Cirque de Fantastique, to come to show up at the prom. Maddie is really excited when they show up, only to be depressed again when she discovers that the guy she likes has a girlfriend. Zack says he will dance with her if Maddie will go to his first prom with him. Meanwhile, Cody tries to become a mime, but ends up ruining a famous mime's career.
