Jessie season 3 episode 1, titled "The Whining," follows the story of Jessie, a young nanny who takes care of four children in New York City. Jessie prepares herself to go on a date with her new boyfriend Tony, but she faces a problem when none of the kids want to be left alone with Bertram, the grumpy butler.
Emma, the eldest of the four children, fakes a sore throat to stay home and avoid going on a family outing to the museum with Bertram. Meanwhile, Ravi, Luke, and Zuri plot to sabotage Jessie's date with Tony by making her forget about it. They try to sneakily delete the reminder from Jessie's phone and feed her false information about the time and place of the date.
As things start to get out of hand, Jessie grows increasingly frustrated and upset. She worries about losing her chance with Tony and wonders if the kids respect her as their nanny. She also feels guilty about leaving Bertram with the kids, knowing that they dislike him and that he has his own personal struggles.

Emma tries to convince Bertram to let her stay home, Ravi and Luke argue over their different visions for their pranks, and Zuri struggles with her loyalty to both her siblings and Jessie.
In the end, Jessie confronts the kids about their behavior and teaches them a valuable lesson about honesty and trust. She also comes to appreciate Bertram's help and acknowledges his hard work and dedication to the family. The episode ends on a heartwarming note as Jessie and Tony reconcile and the whole family gathers together for a movie night.
Overall, "The Whining" is a fun, lighthearted episode that explores themes of love, family, and communication. It showcases the comedic talents of the cast and proves why Jessie is one of Disney's most beloved TV shows.
