Jessie Bradshaw

Jessie Bradshaw is the daughter of Dr. Bradshaw.
Dr. Zin kidnaps her as leverage to force her father to do his bidding, but she escapes and runs into the Quest Team who ultimately help her rescue her father and foil Zin’s scheme.
==History==
Jessie and her father were kidnapped by Dr. Zin and held aboard a junk ship. Dr. Zin forced Jessie's father to do work for him to ensure Jessie's safety. But after three or four weeks, Jessie managed to escape. She happened to swim aboard the Sea Questor where she ran into Race Bannon. Jessie was being pursued, and Race helps her get away.
Jessie tells Race, Jonny, and Hadji about happened and that Dr. Zin was holding her and her father for weeks, and that it has something to do with the missile test. After the missile test malfunctions, the team is able to communicate with Dr. Quest.
Jessie tells them that there's a meeting Zin would be attending at noon, and the Quest Team intervenes, with the kids disguised as Kabuki performers. Zin captures her and the Quest team and holds them aboard his ship. Jessie gets the idea to have Bandit steal the keys from their sleeping guard. They escape with Jessie's father aboard a speedboat.
Afterward, they say their goodbyes aboard the Sea Questor. Jonny admits that he was wrong about her and that she was "really professional." He offers her friendship, and she gives him a kiss on the cheek.
== Quotes ==
Jonny: (while the team is locked up) "Let us handle this, Jessie, we're professionals."
Jessie: "Yeah, you're doing a great job so far."
Jonny: "I was wrong about you, Jessie. You were really something when we needed you. Really... professional."
Jessie: "You weren't so bad yourself."
Jonny: "Friends?"
==Appearances==
* Jonny Quest (1986 TV series)
** 104. Deadly Junket
== Plans for the character ==
Jessie was intended to be a recurring character, as someone who knew Jonny from when they were little from their fathers' association. Neither of these came to fruition, in part because the series was cancelled after thirteen episodes.
From an interview with Mark Young from Cartoon Files Magazine Spotlight on the Jonny Quest Files when the series was still in pre-production:
==Notes/trivia==
* Jessie is capable of doing back-flips.
* Jessie mentions being a frisbee champion.
* Hanna-Barbera didn't forget about their desire to have a red-haired girl named Jessie on the team, resulting two other incarnations of the character: 
** They loosely used the episode she was in as a subplot of the TV film Jonny's Golden Quest, in which a girl named Jessie tricks the Quest team into thinking Dr. Zin has kidnapped her scientist father, who turns out to be a former associate of Zin. Jessie was only doing this because her mother was being manipulated by Zin. This Jessie is the estranged daughter of Race Bannon by Jade Kenyan-Bannon, who's based on the love interest Jade from the 1960's series. This version of Jessie returned in the sequel film Jonny Quest Versus the Cyber Insects.
** Another adaptation, Jessie Bannon, was a regular part of the Quest Team in the TV series revival The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest. However, the Real Adventures season two team (particularly Lance Falk) didn't think Jonny's Golden Quest was faithful to the original series, so they were allowed to create a new backstory for Jessie, having her mother be Estella. Additionally, as stated in the related comic book series, Race always knew he had a daughter.
