Story[]
Jessie tells the kids that their parents have lost their money, so everyone has to find a way to make some more. Meanwhile, Mrs. Chesterfield moves into their apartment while Tony lets Jessie and the kids use his. Later, Jessie tells the kids that the government had made a mistake and that their parents have their money back. Mrs. Chesterfield, who wrongly ends up as a suspect for the Ross Family’s money loss, ends up losing her money after Ravi finds some illegal tax deductions on her computer, so Tony offers to let Mrs. Chesterfield stay at his apartment, much to her disgust.

Trivia[]

- Jessie's phrase "dumb as a doorman" is similar to (and potentially a parody of) the phrase "dead as a doornail"

- This is the first episode Mrs. Chesterfield gets comeuppance for her actions.
- Carolyn Hennesy, who portrays Mrs. Chesterfield, is a real-life trapeze artist, and she demonstrates the skill in character.
Goofs[]
- When Emma asked Jessie about how being a handy-woman is working out for her, she is inside the snack shack. But, on the next cut, we can see that she is standing right next to where Jessie is sitting.
- Mrs. Chesterfield says she's "20-something", though it would be highly concerning if she was, as she's had 6 husbands and Brooks is 25.
- Bertram said he didn't learn how to ride a bike, but in Trashin' Fashion, Zuri taught him how to ride a bike.
- It's possible that Rhoda lied about having husbands and was a former actor or maybe she was just wanting to tease Jessie.
