21. Christmas at the Tipton

Complete story — includes the ending

Everyone's plans for Christmas are cancelled when a snowstorm traps everyone in the Tipton. Carey and the boys are stuck with Kurt. After Cody sees Carey and Kurt hugging, he thinks they are getting back together. Maddie tries to get an expensive present from London by secretly writing her name on all the Secret Santa slips in the basket. In the end though, Maddie is disappointed when London gives her a sweater that she sewed herself, with no hole for the head because there is a third arm instead. Mr. Moseby enlists Arwin's help to keep everyone in the hotel warm by firing up a furnace with ripped-up furniture. While this is happening, a couple named Joseph and Mary (who is pregnant) come to stay at the Tipton on Christmas Eve, and she goes into labor, but can't make it to the hospital because the roads are closed. Finally, Mary gives birth to a beautiful baby girl in the elevator.
