Jessie is a Disney Channel original Kid Com series which debuted on September 30, 2011 and ended on October 16, 2015 after four seasons. The series stars Debby Ryan as the title character Jessie Prescott, an 18-year old woman who moves from Fort Hood, Texas to New York City, eager to forge a life of her own against the wishes of her father.Due to an unexpected turn of events, Jessie ends up becoming the nanny for the affluent Ross family, who live in a multi-million-dollar penthouse on the Upper West Side. The family is comprised of a film director, his business mogul wife, their four children — 13-year old Emma (Peyton List), 12-year old Luke (Cameron Boyce), 10-year old Ravi (Karan Brar) and 7-year old Zuri (Skai Jackson), the latter three being adopted — and their pet Mrs. Kipling. The butler Bertram Winkle (Kevin Chamberlin) and the doorman Tony Ciccolini (Chris Galya) help her from time to time.Jessie was created by Pamela Eells O'Connell (The Suite Life of Zack & Cody/On Deck, as well as being an executive producer of The Nanny). It's notable among Disney Channel comedies for having its lead character be in her late teens from the start of the series and progress into marriage in later seasons (both firsts for Disney Channel), as such shows typically center around lead characters of middle/junior high or high school age.The series is extensively linked to the Disney Channel Live-Action Universe through two massive crossover episodes with Austin & Ally (Austin & JESSIE & Ally: All Star New Year airing December 2012) and with Good Luck Charlie (Good Luck Jessie: NYC Christmas airing November 2013). There was also a Christmas-themed crossover episode with Liv and Maddie, albeit partially since it's missing the leads of the other show (Jessie's Aloha Holidays with Parker and Joey), making it the only series to have an unprecedented three live action crossover episodes since the Hannah Montana era (later tying Hannah Montana with the massive "Monstober" crossover event). They even crossed over into Ultimate Spider-Man (2012), teaming up with the Wall Crawler against Morgan le Fey for a Halloween Episode. As it currently stands, it's the most crossed-over show and the show most extensively linked to other shows on Disney Channel.In 2015, the announcement that the series' fourth season would be its last was made in tandem with the announcement that Emma, Ravi & Zuri would get their own spinoff series Bunk'd, which premiered July 31, 2015. Luke was not a part of the show as his actor Cameron Boyce was given his own show on Disney XD, Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything. Upon the show's conclusion after 98 episodes (101 when counting one-hour episodes as two as per production coding), it stands as the second-longest live-action show in network history behind Wizards of Waverly Place, and third overall behind Phineas and Ferb.Not to be confused with Jesse, the 1998–2000 NBC sitcom starring Christina Applegate. | |

Jessie Luke Ravi and Mad Mack all object only to be muzzled by Connie. Tony asks this question while he is officiating Jessie and Brooks's wedding in "There Goes The Bride". Mrs. Chesterfield tries to raise her hand to object, but is restrained by Bertram. Then when it’s time for the vows, Jessie proclaims “I don’t� last minute, double subverting the trope. | |

Title Drop | |
Jessie / int_18d15922 | comment |
An obvious one just like Austin & Ally, since her name is in the title. However, its worth noting that the Theme Song is titled "Hey, Jessie" many characters say "Hey, Jessie" when seeing her, not everyone, and not all the time, but enough to notice. No one will ever say "Yo, Jessie". So along with the regular Title Drop, they also Title Drop the "Do It Yourself" Theme Tune. | |

Voices Are Not Mental: In the "Freaky Friday" Flip episode. Whenever two characters switch bodies with the bell, their voices do not change and stay in the body they switch to. However, the intonations of their voices change (ie. Zuri in Jessie's body speaks in a snarky tone, Emma in Luke's body gets a valley girl tone, and so forth). | |

Paranoia Gambit: This is unintentionally pulled in the episode "A Close Shave". Bertram and Zuri fear that Luke will want revenge on them for accidentally shaving the middle of his head, despite Luke having already forgiven them. They even end up destroying their own things thinking Luke was giving them as a prank. | |

Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: Emma acts this way from time to time and more than the others, especially in the Crossover Episode. In fact, if she wasn't rich and pretty, it would've just been super creepy for Austin and friends to stay the night, not to mention dangerous. But since the Ross family is rich, they all but begged to stay in the penthouse. | |

Good Bad Girl | |
Jessie / int_24c685bf | comment |
There are early signs of this happening to Jessie herself. The writers seem to have become stuck on her having bad relationships with guys and as Season 1 progressed she seemed more and more like a relationship chaser (possibly a Disneyfied Good Bad Girl or Ethical Slut) than a girl with just enough bad experiences to make her play it safe with Tony. As many relationship stories as she's mentioned, it seems like she dated every single guy in her hometown at least once. The stories are becoming more outlandish as well, further implying they might be Flanderizing her. Also, the whole Failure Is the Only Option angle. Jessie started the show being able to fly helicopters and bragging about winning talent shows; in Season 2 she comes off as being lucky if she manages walk down the hallway without being run over. | |

Failure Is the Only Option | |
Jessie / int_260926c3 | comment |
Failure Is the Only Option: All of Jessie's attempts to make it big (trying to get a song recorded, trying to audition for a TV show, trying to get a play produced, trying to get a short story published) have ended in spectacular failure at best. Her most successful attempt so far was in getting cast in Mayan Mayhem...as a stunt double (and subsequently taking quite a beating for her art). She auditioned for an In-Universe show called Worthington Manor. She would've gotten the part, but an injury sustained earlier in the episode (no thanks to Ravi) caused her to lose it This has been averted in season 3, she has starred in an off-Broadway play after the actress got trapped on the terrace and also starred in a kitchen utensil safety video. And finally averted in the Grand Finale when she lands the starring role as a superhero nanny in a new television show in Hollywood. | |

Spiritual Successor | |
Jessie / int_27a42ebc | comment |
Spiritual Successor: To The Nanny, due to the fact (like Fran Fine in that series) the main character is hired as the nanny to a wealthy family through pure happenstance; coincidentally, Jessie creator/executive producer Pamela Eells O'Connell was one of the original writers for The Nanny. There are also overtones of Suite Life in the show as well, which also shares production/cast members (O'Connell as producer and Ryan as star). There is some speculation that the series is the closest we while get to an American Floricienta remake (since Disney has the American rights to the series), but without the Cinderella references...ironically, Jessie does have a stepmother and stepsister Even moreso than The Nanny, Jessie is pretty much the Distaff Counterpart to Charles in Charge (also by Pamela Eells O'Connell). Jessie moving to New York to build her life as an actress is also reminiscent of That Girl | |

There are hints dropped that Jessie herself is a reformed Stalker With A Crush.

Ax-Crazy | |
Jessie / int_2d4fa515 | comment |
Ax-Crazy: While in her first appearance, "Creepy" Connie is much more creepy than crazy, she is full blown Ax-Crazy Stalker with a Crush in her next appearance. The episode deals with her attempting to get the role of Luke's lover in the school play. How does she do this? By taking out her competition, of course! The first girl she pushes down a flight of stairs, putting her in a full body cast, she welds a wrench to the next girl's braces, and attempts to crush the final girl with a sandbag! Connie turns it up to eleven in "Creepy Connie 3: The Creepening" including hiring an actress in order to dupe Luke. In order to avoid paying said actress, Connie kidnaps her. Connie herself confirmed she's had at least one police line-up. And her uncle confirms her multiple(!) restraining orders in "Creepy Connie 3" The kids think Jessie herself is axe crazy in the Halloween episode. | |

In "Diary of a Mad Newswoman", Bryn tricks Emma into reporting a false scoop on the school radio show. Emma finds out and has Ravi record Bryn confess whilst hidden in a locker. In "Jessie's Big Break", McD's flirting with Jessie was recorded on Luke's video camera. Jessie uses this to prove to Shaylee that McD is a Jerkass whom she shouldn't be dating. In "The Rosses Get Real", the family gets rid of a mean reporter by angering her into insulting her bosses on camera. Ravi then steals the memory chip and plays it live. | |

Actor Allusion: Various examples (see Shout-Out and Expy) that link Jessie to Bailey. Most notable was when Mr. Moseby himself appeared, and noticed Jessie's resemblance to Bailey, though he didn't tell her. In "Punch-Dumped Love," they outright break the fourth wall by having Cameron Boyce directly ask Adam Sandler about returning for Grown Ups 3. This isn't the first time Cameron Boyce has played someone with the last name of Ross | |

Kiss of Distraction: In "Romancing The Crown", Bertram needs to distract Mrs. Chesterfield so that Jessie and Zuri can sneak into her penthouse and retrieve Christina's tiara. They are nearly caught when Zeus, Mrs. Chesterfield's dog, spots them and barks at them. To prevent Mrs. Chesterfield from seeing Jessie and Zuri, Bertram compliments Rhoda on her breath leading her to kiss him for several minutes, much to Bertram's disgust. This distraction proves enough for Jessie and Zuri to escape. | |

The series beginning and finale also contain a subplot involving a Ross daughter's science project of the solar system and Christina being unable to spend as much time for support. Season 1 ends with Mrs. Kipling giving birth to baby lizards; early on in Season 2, the babies are given away to Mrs. Chesterfield's lizard sanctuary. | |

Friendly Enemy | |
Jessie / int_5aa8d3d8 | comment |
And the kids as a whole. In the first season, they had kind of a Friendly Enemy relationship with Bertram, but now it's to the point where they abuse and admittedly dislike him without remorse (which makes Bertram into the villain in the robot episode because of this). The same with Jessie, whom they thought of as a Magical Nanny in the first season but now freely insult her to her face, refer to her as someone unimportant in their lives, and think she is bad at anything and everything she does. This flips around in Season 4, although the kids prank/manipulate Bertram and Jessie from time to time, the kids show affection for Bertram and Jessie. When Bertram quits, they replace him, but want to get him back because they miss him. Also, although Luke manipulates him to come to a sports collection, they end up having a great time with each other at the end. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: In "What A Steal", Jessie goes on a date with a guy and learns that he has a fear of spiders. After it is revealed that he is actually criminal planning to rob the Rosses' penthouse with the help of his sister whom Ravi befriended at a MENSA meeting, Jessie employs this fear to keep both burglars at bay for the police to arrive. | |

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: In the third season finale, Tony is jealous of Jessie's new relationship with Brooks, Mrs. Chesterfield's son. However, he does hire Brooks as an elevator operator in the building when he was temporarily broke. Tony is just about to tell Jessie how he feels about her, but when Brooks proposes he takes a step back and accepts Jessie's decision to marry him, even volunteering to officiate the wedding. However, this proved to be unnecessary because Jessie and Brooks' engagement breaks off at the altar when Brooks leaves for a new job in Africa. This is followed with a Continuity Nod where Jessie invokes this trope as well after finding out that Brooks has moved on very easily and is currently dating the veterinarian at his animal sanctuary. | |

Plot Hole: It should have long before been figured out that Mr. Kipling was a Mrs. Kipling. Ravi has had him since an egg and even if he didn't understand the difference between male or female, as a pet it is likely Mrs. Kipling has been to the vet at least once - especially before being imported to the U.S. upon Ravi's adoption. Also, in "The Talented Mr. Kipling", it is further implied that Mrs. Kipling is hitting on Jessie when (s)he tail-whips Jessie. | |

Indy Escape: In "Creepy Connie's Curtain' Call", Ravi accidentally knocks a boulder down a hill and it rolls towards Luke. Ironically, Creepy Connie is the one who saved Luke by tackling him out of the way. In "Between The Swoon and New York City", Ravi sets up an Indiana Jones-like booby trap course to stop Luke from stealing the baseball that Ravi caught in a stadium. In fact, the entire scene resembles the opening of Raiders of the Lost Ark. | |

The Ross kids: Emma (choleric), Luke (phlegmatic), Zuri (sanguine), Ravi (melancholic). Alternitavely, Emma (sanguine) and Zuri (choleric). Especially in later episodes, Emma is more bubbly, charming and positive than her sister and Zuri has stronger Jerkass tendencies, is insensitive and expects everyone to dance to her tune. Other characters: Burtram (leukine) and Rosie (melancholic). | |

Gilligan Cut: In "Glue Dunnit: A Sticky Situation", Jessie insists to Mrs. Chesterfield that the kids did not prank her with switching her hair gel with glue. Next, we see Jessie interrogating the kids in the penthouse and accusing them of the prank. In "Quitting Cold Koala", Jessie tries to help Luke get over his obsession with his stuffed animal, Kenny the Koala, by confiscating it for three days and making Luke sleep on the couch to get him away from its environment. Luke has trouble trying to sleep without it, but then tries to calm himself down. In "Caught Purple Handed", Luke says he wants no part in the plan to hide the lie about a famous celebrity attending their Wild Teen Party on the roof. He is then seen impersonating the celebrity to entertain the party. | |

Girliness Upgrade:A MAJOR one of these happens to Rosie after befriending Emma. In her first appearance, she appears as a punk tomboy with messy hair, no makeup, and without a care about "girly" interests. After befriending Emma, her appearance and personality drastically changes. In her next appearance, her hair is much neater and styled in French braids, she dresses in a much more "girly" style (More Similar To Emma's Style Of Dressing) than before (She Had Seemed To Have Completely Abandoned Her Former Style), wears makeup and earrings, and acts like a stereotypical "Popular Girl". | |

Maia Mitchell and John DeLuca in Jessie's Big Break, Ross Lynch and Laura Marano in the Austin & Ally crossover, Bridgit Mendler and Jason Dolley in the Good Luck Charlie crossover, Joey Bragg and Tenzig Norgay Trainor in Jessie's Aloha Holidays and Sierra McCormick in the Creepy Connie episodes (along with G Hannelius in the last one).

Jessie is trying to finish a movie for a film festival and in one scene Zuri Ross imagines herself as the mustache twirling villain and Jessie as the Damsel In Distress tied to a railway with a lot of rope. She mentions that she will be saved by her hero (Tony) but Zuri has him too tied to the railroad tracks. The imagination spot then ends after Jessie admits to evil Zuri her plan worked. | |

Stalker with a Crush | |
Jessie / int_8b68d9a7 | comment |
Stalker with a Crush: Connie to Luke, in the episode "Creepy Connie Comes a Callin". There are hints dropped that Jessie herself is a reformed Stalker With A Crush. Grenade to the Heart, the play that takes place in the aforementioned episode starring Connie as an obvious expy of Jessie herself seems to be driving home this point and suggesting that Jessie and Connie aren't so different. In the episode "Caught Purple Handed" it's revealed that Channing Tatum has a restraining order against Jessie Luke seems to come off like one to Jessie at first, given how often he hits on her. Stuart to Zuri, but Zuri decides that Stuart isn't entirely useless. | |

Bouquet Toss: This happens during Jessie's father's wedding. Ironically, the one who ends up catching it is Mrs. Kipling. Jessie also catches the bouquet at Luke and Connie's fake wedding and shouts out: "It's mine! Better not take down those decorations on the terrace cause Jessie's gonna land herself a man!" This foreshadows Jessie's relationship with Brooks. | |

The Killjoy: Bertram fancies himself a responsible adult who puts a damp on the kids and their babysitter's potentially dangerous schemes. In truth, it's more usual for him to spoil their fun just because it annoys him and he can be that petty. Sometimes it's because they've criticized one of his hobbies while in others it's just because they are making too much noise. | |

Throw the Dog a Bone | |

Throw the Dog a Bone: In Caught Purple Handed Jessie finally catches a break. She got a starring role for a kitchen utensil safety video, she finally got the kids to clean up their own mess, and she was actually referred to as pretty. Bertram finally gets a happy ending in "Tell-Tale Duck". Bertram pretends to be a successful cat toy mogul with Jessie as his veterinarian girlfriend to show up his high school rival, a successful man who works on Wall Street with an attractive girlfriend at their reunion. During the reunion Luke accidentally reveals the whole thing was a lie. The rival gloats in success only for the kids (who are often less than nice to him) to defend him and telling him how great Bertram's job is making Bertram feel happy with his life. Still not impressed, after his rival insults his girlfriend, she reveals that the rival is really an unemployed loser who got fired by his mother and she's really his cousin who he paid to pretend to be his girlfriend. And as the cherry on top, when Bertram says that the only thing he has that Bertram doesn't is a full head of hair, which the cousin promptly responds to by revealing he's bald. | |

Coincidental Accidental Disguise | |
Jessie / int_bbb94287 | comment |
Coincidental Accidental Disguise: This happens to Jessie in the 2012 Halloween Episode. She goes to check on the kids who are late trick-or-treating, but the kids were told by a creepy old doorman about an evil nanny who lived in the building and happens to look exactly like Jessie's Halloween costume. This, along with Jessie being covered in red punch and having anger tantrums, convinces the kids that Jessie has become possessed by the evil nanny and is out to murder them. | |

Emma and Zuri are both Butterfly Scouts (Emma is a Monarch, First Class, later demoted to Larvae, Third Class for buying her badges without earning them, while Zuri starts the episode at Caterpillar, before being promoted to Butterfly for earning a (non-official) Outwitting an Ostrich badge). | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male | |
Jessie / int_c0e3994b | comment |
Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: Played with, although it's more like sexual harassment. Toward the end of the episode where Jessie gets together with Mrs. Chesterfield's son, she harasses a man she was interested in. While the man seriously considers suing her for it, she laughs it off with a laugh track playing, believing that he's playing hard to get - considering her personality, she is clearly in the wrong about it. | |

Jessie / int_c2cedc1c | comment |
Big "NO!": Ravi does it in "The Secret Life of Mr. Kipling" when he thinks he killed Mrs. Kipling's babies only to find out they're the wrong ones. He screams another as he flees the building to find the egg restaurant where the eggs were sent to. Chris Bosh did this in "Say Yes to the Messy Dress" after his lucky socks was washed. Combined with Skyward Scream. Emma does this in "Quitting Cold Koala" when Stewart wants to have a romantic picnic with her. Emma does it again in "G.I. Jessie" when Jessie tells the kids they aren't being sent to their rooms for breaking the roof as she thought, but they are going with her to Texas. Ravi in "Morning Rush" when he bumps into the door and breaks the rock mask of Luke's face. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Emma fighting off a pack of wild monkeys by herself prior to fixing the radio on their downed private jet and getting a rescue chopper. Justified for happening offscreen, but one wonders how she got rid of the monkeys, did she actually fight them off, or just outsmart them? Either way, considering it's Emma we're talking about, either feat would seem to be nearly impossible and thus awesome. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
Jessie / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: A couple regarding Jessie: In the Austin & Ally Crossover, we're told that Jessie is a horrible songwriter and shown several examples to prove it. This ignores the fact that she wrote a song in "One Day Wonders" and it wasn't really any worse than your average country-pop song. Similarly, in "Badfellas", Luke describes Jessie as a bad singer, but "One Day Wonders" and the aforementioned Crossover demonstrate that her voice is actually quite good. In "Punch Dumped Love", Luke said that his dance with Jessie would be nice if he got a kiss, and Jessie saying "Don't push your luck." Um, then what's the kiss she gave Luke in "Jessie's Big break" then? Jessie is either crazy-talented, abhorrently untalented or barely smart enough to breathe, depending on the episode. Sometimes, all three in the same episode. | |

Artistic License | |
Jessie / int_dd6ce5db | comment |
Artistic License: In real life it's highly unlikely a wealthy family in New York would hire someone as young and inexperienced as Jessie as a full time nanny. She might be able to get a part time job as a nanny for perhaps a middle class family. But not as a primary caregiver as Jessie is. Actually, the parents might have been desperate since the kids keep chasing away their other nannies. Also, it's perfectly legal so long as she has a high school diploma and background check. She could technically work in a daycare in many states as well. I think the main point here is that it's what Zuri wanted and so Christina gave in to Zuri's wishes once she made sure Jessie met the minimal requirements. Not to mention Jessie is desperately trying to make it big and she is working for a famous couple. She knows that if she does a bad job, she'll crush any chance of breaking into showbiz. That said, Jessie seems to be doing a good job of ruining her chances on her own, but she probably dreaming of the day when one of the Ross's get a job in the industry. Which they more than likely won't do since they seem to like her as a nanny and would rather not try replace her, while Morgan Ross can easily cast someone more talented at acting than Jessie. In "GI Jessie" Jessie's dad and his female CO plan to get married. This is a bit problematic where the armed forces are concerned. Military personnel are not supposed to be engaged in romantic relationships within the same chain of command. During the first Christmas special, it's a big plot point that Ravi's never heard of Santa Claus. Not only is Christmas a state holiday in India, to the point that even non-religious schools have Christmas parties, Santa Claus, sometimes called "Christmas Baba," is part of the celebrations. While it's possible that Ravi never celebrated Christmas before, it's extremely unlikely that Ravi even never heard of Santa Claus. | |

Expy | |
Jessie / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: An in-universe example: In "Creepy Connie's Curtain Call", "Josie" is obviously an expy of Jessie herself. Jessie herself is such an expy of Bailey that most fans consider them the exact same character. It's lampshaded when Jessie runs into Mr. Moseby himself, who was tipped off by her resemblance to Bailey, and decided to tell Cody. Most of the cast is somewhat expys of The Nanny characters- Jessie is Fran, Emma is Maggie, Luke is Brighton, Zuri (and Ravi, to a degree) is Gracie, Bertram is Niles, and Mrs. Chesterfield is C.C. Emma has a thing or two in common with London Tipton. It's even shown that like London, she also likes Arturo Vitalli. The theater teacher from "Acting With the Frenemy" probably wishes he instead taught at Hollywood Arts. | |

Flanderization | |
Jessie / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: There are early signs of this happening to Jessie herself. The writers seem to have become stuck on her having bad relationships with guys and as Season 1 progressed she seemed more and more like a relationship chaser (possibly a Disneyfied Good Bad Girl or Ethical Slut) than a girl with just enough bad experiences to make her play it safe with Tony. As many relationship stories as she's mentioned, it seems like she dated every single guy in her hometown at least once. The stories are becoming more outlandish as well, further implying they might be Flanderizing her. Also, the whole Failure Is the Only Option angle. Jessie started the show being able to fly helicopters and bragging about winning talent shows; in Season 2 she comes off as being lucky if she manages walk down the hallway without being run over. Zuri's showing some signs of it. In season 1 she was kind of snarky but genuinely playful and nice. In season 2 she started acting a lot greedier and brattier. In season 3 it's hard to find 1 scene she's not insulting someone (Ghost Bummers doesn't count as it was a dream) And the kids as a whole. In the first season, they had kind of a Friendly Enemy relationship with Bertram, but now it's to the point where they abuse and admittedly dislike him without remorse (which makes Bertram into the villain in the robot episode because of this). The same with Jessie, whom they thought of as a Magical Nanny in the first season but now freely insult her to her face, refer to her as someone unimportant in their lives, and think she is bad at anything and everything she does. This flips around in Season 4, although the kids prank/manipulate Bertram and Jessie from time to time, the kids show affection for Bertram and Jessie. When Bertram quits, they replace him, but want to get him back because they miss him. Also, although Luke manipulates him to come to a sports collection, they end up having a great time with each other at the end. Emma. In Season 1, she was often ditzy but otherwise a regular teenage girl. In following seasons, especially the third, her common sense is almost nonexistent and she’s just a stereotypical Dumb Blonde. Ravi's social life. At first it seemed he had some friends though not a lot. In Season 2, he seemed to be lonelier, but a lot of it seemed to be by choice. Jump to season 3 where Ravi has become desperate for friends and admits to being a lonely social outcast and many more jokes are made about this. | |

While Jessie is talking to Creepy Connie, she accidentally reveals that Luke sleeps with a stuffed animal. In "Make New Friends But Hide The Old", Bertram denies writing Justin Bieber fanfic. | |

Pacifism Backfire: Parodied in the pilot episode when Emma and Luke are fighting and Ravi is trying to stop themnote which might be a parody of Gandhi | |

Jessie / int_e6b5d22f | comment |
Catchphrase: Mrs. Chesterfield always calls Zuri "strange little girl". Emma's high-pitched shriek (and "idiot"). Bertram's "it's just so far". | |

Jessie / int_ea85d6ea | comment |
All Just a Dream: "To Be or Not to Be" is all Kipling's daydream. "Ghost Bummers" was all Jessie's dream. "The Jessie-nator" was just a Daydream Surprise about what might happen if Luke pranks Bertram once too much. Most of "Spaced Out" is Ravi's dream. | |

Acquaintance Denial | |
Jessie / int_ea8fd9af | comment |
Acquaintance Denial: In "Are You Cooler Than a 5th Grader?", Ravi goes to Luke's school for the first time and tries acting cool to get along with his brother's friends. But due to being more embarrassing than cool, Luke denies knowing Ravi, saying he is just his "dad's friend's cousin's dog's neighbor". | |

Jessie / int_eb7c34cf | comment |
Similarly, in "Badfellas", Luke describes Jessie as a bad singer, but "One Day Wonders" and the aforementioned Crossover demonstrate that her voice is actually quite good. | |

Alternitavely, Emma (sanguine) and Zuri (choleric). Especially in later episodes, Emma is more bubbly, charming and positive than her sister and Zuri has stronger Jerkass tendencies, is insensitive and expects everyone to dance to her tune. | |

Vomit Discretion Shot: Zuri vomits in a grocery bag in "One Day Wonders". Jessie vomits in a trash can in "Beauty and the Beasts". In "Take the A-Train� I Think?", Emma shows Jessie a picture of Ravi vomiting, but we never actually see the picture. | |

Malicious Misnaming: Mrs. Chesterfield calls Jessie "Bessie", her friend Darla "Marla" and Emma "Jemma". She most likely does this on purpose. Also, Bertram's highschool rival calls him "Bertram Stinkle". | |

Bad Review Threat: A rare heroic example is shown in "World Wide Web of Lies"; After Agatha takes over the local playground by threatening to expose the other nannies' indiscretions over the Internet, Christina turns the tables by threatening to use her celebrity influence to destroy Agatha's reputation via a single negative post. | |

Bad "Bad Acting" | |
Jessie / int_f19e8a55 | comment |
Bad "Bad Acting": Jessie and Petey's improv in "Green-Eyed Monsters". It's even lampshaded by Emma. Zuri's "Oh no! The lizard ate my homework!" in "Make New Friends but Hide the Old". Luke's "Oh no! They (Chris Bosh 's lucky socks) have been washed" in "Say Yes to the Messy Dress". Jessie's "call from the president" in "Quitting Cold Koala". | |

Jessie / int_f3d5d15f | comment |
Creepy Child: Zuri is this in-universe, according to the landlady. "Creepy" Connie Thompson as well. That nickname is well-deserved. Not to mention Madeline from "What A Steal". Even before she reveals her true colors to be those of a young hardened criminal in the making, a very bad vibe has already become apparent in the way she's dressed. | |

Zuri once took down both Jessie and Luke in about as many seconds. Took down Ravi by technicality when he surrendered himself to the floor. | |
