You can tell Max was so glad to be home again, but it was both the confused and curious look on Cody's face, since he was in disbelief to see his 10 year old brother came home looming chubby than he was before, and that made the 15 year old to wonder what did he do wrong? Did he stopped trying after gained 32lbs a couple of years ago, or was it something he was unaware about his brother's surprised summer gain so much?
Whatever it may be, Cody can tell thathis mind had always come to him when he stares at Max's chubby body laying in bed, with his shirt riding up to see his belly sticking out, looking a lot blubber than his former skinny self.

"Umm... sure! I promise I won't tell anyone, so you're secret is safe with me." Cody nodded, as he was getting a little more curious as what kind of secret does Max wants to tell his teen brother about.
"Thanks bro!" Max smiled before he tells his secret to Cody. "Anyway, my secret is that I wanna be..."
