Plot

While trying to impress her friend Darla in Texas, Jessie borrows some of Christina's jewels - including a million dollar Tiffany Diamond tiara. While recording the video, Jessie accidentally drops the tiara into Mrs. Chesterfield's hot tub. When Jessie and Zuri try to get it back, Mrs. Chesterfield refuses to return it, so Jessie and Zuri turn to Bertram, their only option. They convince him to ask Mrs. Chesterfield on a date with him - so that they can recover the tiara before Mrs. Ross notices it’s missing. However, they get locked outside of her apartment when Mrs. Chesterfield's beloved chihuahua tries to run away. Meanwhile, Emma, Luke, and Ravi try to make Mr. Kipling an internet sensation lizard.

Goofs

• Jessie doesn't seem to mind everyone seeing the video of her wearing the tiara, and dropping it, however, it never dawns on her or anyone for that matter, what if Christina saw it?
• Since Mrs. Chesterfield refused to return the tiara to Jessie, she has the authority to do something about it other than sneak into her apartment and take it back, since it's stealing.
