It also gets physical: Jessie instinctively uses James as a body shield from [[May's Skitty]], puts him in a headlock and somehow ends up piggybacking him. | ||

James shouts "No!", imagining a married life in which he is doing chores while Jessie bosses him around. Although he appears to find this vision repulsive, in reality he is quite happy to do domestic tasks for Jessie at other times, for example ironing her contest outfit in ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'' | ||
** Jessie is unimpressed by James’s reaction to the thought of being married to her and further upset when he introduces her as his secretary in an attempt to cover up his being in Team Rocket. She spends most of the rest of the episode wilfully going against James’s request to keep the peace and only becomes supportive again after James has been honest about their identity. | ** Jessie is unimpressed by James’s reaction to the thought of being married to her and further upset when he introduces her as his secretary in an attempt to cover up his being in Team Rocket.

** Having earlier heard that [[May (anime)|May]] may have a crush on [[Drew]], Jessie gazes into the ocean and ponders the concept of first loves alongside Mime Jr., as James and Meowth watch from a distance. In the Latin American Spanish dub, Meowth remarks, "Yo olvidé el amor de verano"; or, "I don't even remember who my summer love was." James muses, "Tal vez no reconocemos la verdad cuando la vemos"; or, "Perhaps we don't know the truth when we see it." | ** Having earlier heard that [[May (anime)|May]] may have a crush on [[Drew]], Jessie gazes into the ocean and ponders the concept of first loves alongside Mime Jr., as James and Meowth watch from a distance.
