Plot[]
After Jessie's dad cleans out his bomb shelter, Jessie gives Zuri her favorite childhood doll, called Military Mary. Jessie tells Zuri that the doll has sentimental value to Jessie. However, when Zuri trades it with a toy collector for a far less impressive toy, her, Jessie, and Ravi must find a way to get the doll back. Meanwhile, Bertram is entering a Salsa dancing contest to win his crush’s heart. However, he has no experience in Salsa dancing because he thought it would be about the sauce instead of the dance, so Luke and Emma work together to teach Bertram to dance.

- This is Bertram's third love interest in the series, even though he never loved Mrs. Chesterfield.
