## Biography

Cody is just your average, smart, and charming boy with a talent for fixing cars. If not at school, he can be found at his family’s garage, “Castillo Cars & Trucks.” He lives with his grandpa, Mr. Castillo, (his parents are in the military) who influenced him to like 50’s music and cars.

In Mile 1: The Voice In The Shed, he is first shown intently listening to Layne’s speech, but first talks to Layne when she and VIN arrive at his garage. As Cody admires VIN, he gives Layne the number to the shop landline, due to the fact that he doesn’t like cell phones, if they need help with the car.

In Mile 2: Paid to Drive, he is seen singing with a wrench and a record player. Cody then helps Layne and Zora by getting the part that they need, only for them to find out that it costs $350.

In Mile 3: VIN Goes Wild, Cody is seen with his Grandpa, seated in the back row. He then reveled when getting popcorn that his parents are in the military, but makes it work out. After VIN goes rogue and runs out of charge, he agrees to bring it to the shop to get it charged, but starts getting suspicious.

In Mile 4: Changing Laynes, Cody finally snaps and tries to make Layne tell the truth about VIN, but is fed another lie (which he believes). He is then shown eavesdropping on Layne’s challenge, then tries to talk Layne out of it, but fails. When Layne fails at the rock climbing challenge, Cody tries to clear poor Layne up, but to no avail. VIN then arrives, and suddenly, Cody rides and finds out all the secrets about VIN. When VIN leaves the forrest that Zora and Mel were stranded in, Mel sees the rescuer’s helmet in Cody’s hand, leading Mel to believe that it was Cody who rescued him and Zora, and now owes him a life debt.

Mile 5: Road Trip: Cody is seen luging tires when Mel comes along trying to repay his life debt. Cody starts to say that it is all good, but then makes Mel lug the tires when he started badmouthing his cousin Layne. When Mel is finished, Cody (who was singing at the time) wants Mel to leave, but when he refuses, he angrily says “this stupid secret, this talking car”, in Spanish, leading Mel to translate it. When Cody tries to fake a life threatening situation in which only Mel can save him, he gives up when Mel takes too long, and reveals that it was Layne who saved him from the cliff. Mel is oblivious, and tricks Cody into revealing VIN.

Mile 6: Code Orange: Cody helps Layne pass out fliers, while giving advice to Layne to talk to her parents. He also shows up at the dance and vote and sings a song for everyone. In the end, Layne finally reveals that she has a crush on Cody.

Mile 7: On the Run: Cody helps out Layne and Zora by distracting the guard at the parking jail, while Layne and Zora bust VIN out of there. At the end of the episode, Layne tells him that she likes him, but liked it better when they were friends. Cody then walks back to his Grandpa’s truck to tell him that “she just wants to be friends,” when he wanted to tell her that he likes her.

In Mile 8: Helicopter Parents, Cody still feels depressed about what happened, but puts on a brave face when Layne tells him what happened to her parents. Cody then helps them get back VIN from the evil people. In the end, he joins the crew in a celebration for Layne being elected. Meanwhile, Layne feels tortured by not being Cody’s girlfriend.
