Badfellas is the seventeenth episode of the first season of Jessie. It first aired on April 27, 2012 to 3.07 million viewers.
Plot
Emma has a huge crush on a bad boy named Vincent. When Jessie meets the boy with a bad reputation, she thinks he is a bad influence on Emma and tells him to leave. However, Emma doesn't listen to Jessie as she invited him over while she away. Unfortunately, Vincent brought a bunch of people over to the penthouse for a party. Seeing Ravi stuck in the piano, Luke being used as a seat cushion and Bertram being taken away by the guests, Emma realized that Jessie was right about Vincent and calls her back home for help. After Jessie arrives, Emma apologizes for the party and tells her that she was right about Vincent as he's her T-Bob (one of Jessie's ex-boyfriends) and she doesn't want a T-Bob. Hearing this, Jessie agrees to help as she tells the guests that the party is over. When Vincent insults Jessie, Emma stands up for her but she uses a move her dad taught her on him. Emma decided to be the one to use the move on Vincent as Jessie teaches her the move, which makes her proud. Once the guests have left, Emma apologizes to Jessie for not listening to her. Although she forgives her and is proud of her for her mature choice to call her for help, Jessie still grounds Emma for disobeying her and throwing an unauthorized party. Meanwhile, Zuri plants a new tree in Central Park and can't let go of it, causing Jessie to ask Zuri what's it gonna take to bring her back home. Zuri had Jessie agree to bring the tree back with them to the penthouse in order to get Zuri to come back home. In the end, Jessie, Emma, Luke and Ravi had to pull Bertram out of the dumbwaiter as the guests at the party put him there, after they swept him away.

Goofs
- Bertram is surprised that Jessie is either still single or still alive although she was currently dating Tony. Though this episode could have taken place before the previous episodes and they might've not gone out as a couple yet.
- Jessie says even if she was dating, but she is dating Tony.
- When Vincent and Emma walk to their table in the cafeteria, Vincent only held his cup and not the tray, yet nothing falls on the ground.
- When Emma and Jessie left the park, they left Zuri all by herself.
- Luke says that Vincent gets people faster out of a room than Jessie on karaoke night but Jessie actually is a good singer.
- It’s weird that Morgan and Christina didn’t send the kids to a private or fancier school. Cristina being a supermodel and Morgan being a movie director the kids shouldn’t have to deal with public school.
