.
, at St. Joseph's Hospital in Seattle, Washington at 6:30 on a Saturday. The year of his birth is not clear. In The Suite Life on Deck episode, "Das Boots", it is said to be 1993. However, in the The Suite Life of Zack & Cody episode, "Poor Little Rich Girl", a baby video of him and his brother is date-stamped September 23, 1992. He is typically the insecure, unstudious, outgoing and often lazy twin, who usually dresses in skater clothes. Zack also bullies his brother due to him feeling intimidated by his more intellectual twin brother, Cody. At school, he is a straight "D" student. Although he does not do well in school, Zack loves wood shop (a class in which he actually does well). In an episode of The Suite Life on Deck
, it is shown that he and Cody have ancestors from Sweden.
Although he mocks his brother often (most notably for being intellectual, showing emotion to their mother and for being bacillophobic
), Zack is himself a momma's boy. In "Ghost of Suite 613" after being frightened he ran to his mother for comfort. On another occasion he was seen refusing to let go of his mother before attending Seven Seas High - a moment which Cody used to his advantage in an e-mail to their friends.
Zack also frequently gets into trouble sometimes along with Cody. He also is the lazier of the two, often bossing Cody around. He is the charming, cool, funny, and greedy twin, but can also have a soft spot, and caring spot, for example in the episode: "Election" the two brothers run for president, and Zack almost beats him unfairly, but then helps Cody win. Also in the On Deck episode "Shipnotized" Zack stands up for Cody after Harvard's dean of admissions makes him cry, telling him he'd be lucky to get into clown college. Zack is also known to put Cody down a lot, though he is quick to stand up for him when other people do it. Most of the time he receives no retaliation for these actions although he seems to be intimidated by Cody when Cody stands up to him. Zack also can usually be found eating food, like chocolate, more often so than Cody, as evident in the episode "Health & Fitness" where Zack attempts to stop eating too much candy. Zack also has no stage fright unlike Cody as seen in "The Suite Life Goes Hollywood
." Zack does not have as much knowledge but has as much common sense as his brother. Cody sometimes believes Zack doesn't care about the things he does, but this is disproved when Zack went to see his brother's speech instead of going to a Black Eyed Peas concert with his "friend" Theo. Rarely seen is Zack's emotional side, but when we do it is usually Cody or Maddie who's brought it on. Although he and Cody are often shown arguing and even fighting, they both share a close platonic
relationship with each other. In "Cody Goes To Camp", Zack misses Cody so badly that he convinces London to drive him to Camp Knock-A-Number where Cody is having a great time with other nerds. When Cody realizes Zack is lonely without his brother, he sends everybody away so the brothers can have a private talk about their relationship.
He and Cody are both huge fans of the Boston Celtics
and the Boston Red Sox
. Some of Zack's hobbies include skateboarding
, basketball
, and soccer, all of which he excels. He is always playing pranks on his twin brother and is a lot messier than Cody is.
Zack did not pass 8th grade English, which caused him to go to summer school. In summer school, his intellectual side is shown, making him not so popular and occasionally getting a wedgie
. Although he is the braver of the twins, he has been frightened before by a horror film called "Zombie Mom," which he was not allowed to see, and eventually gets punished for seeing it anyway. After seeing it, he gets combined nightmares and sleepwalking, putting furniture in front of the front door of the hotel to keep out the zombies imagined by him.
Despite Zack not doing well in school, he is equally as intelligent and clever as his brother. In "Prom Story", his grades suddenly improve when he learns that Maddie likes smart guys. In "Aptitude", Zack's math skills drastically improve when the numbers have dollar signs in front. Zack knows how to manipulate others for his personal gains. He can create ingenious plots and schemes to try to get himself and his brother in or out of trouble. Cody always imagines Zack in jail. This came true in "Boston Holiday" and in the Suite Life on Deck episode "Parrot Island", however the latter also had Cody being imprisoned.
Zack may sometimes be the obnoxious twin, but he is more aware of events than Cody, in "To Catch a Thief", when the twins overhear the jewel thieves in the ballroom, when Zack asked "Did you hear that?", Cody replied with, "Yeah, the jewel thief wants mom's job." Another example is in "Have A Nice Trip," when they see Harry dancing while they're in the vent, Zack told Cody that his back was fine, but Cody, after he heard Holly con Mr. Moseby, he said, "Not that, I ordered a dozen of those Marshmallow Mushies." In "Hotel Inspector," Mr. Moseby offers the twins free Red Sox tickets. Cody jumps at the offer, but Zack knows Mr. Moseby really wants the twins out of the hotel for the inspection, so he bargains for dinner money too. Cody then catches on and bargains for lobster dinner.
One of Zack's skills is his musical ability. He was the lead singer of the band Rock Squared and won an airband contest with Woody, singing a parody of "November Rain
" by Guns N Roses. This was possibly inherited from his father.
In the season one episode "Splash and Trash", Zack states that he weighs 98 pounds. He and Cody's voices get much deeper in the second season and in addition. Zack also has talent in painting as shown by the intricate art piece he drew in "Kitchen Casannova". Zack has been dating Maya, a waitress. She breaks up with him in the series finale because the long distance between them wouldn't be fair for either of them.
