Notes/trivia

 * Jessie's surname is not given in either film.
 * Jessie is a reimagined version of Jessie Bradshaw from the Jonny Quest (1986) episode Deadly Junket, who was meant to be a friend of Jonny's and a recurring character. Jessie Bradshaw is the daughter of a male scientist kidnapped by Dr. Zin; this new Jessie grew up without knowing her father, and she pretends to be the daughter of a mad scientist because Zin has kidnapped her mother. Jade being her mother as the result of short-lived marriage between Jade and Race, was based on the failed attempt at giving Jade a backstory in the aforementioned series (only there was no marriage intended).
 * Jessie is later reimagined as Jessie Bannon in The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest. That version of Jessie has green eyes instead of blue, and her mother is Estella Velasquez instead of Jade.
