When Ravi tells the story when he first arrived in the United States, he tells Jessie that they thought Mr. Kipling was supposed to be a baby because his room was decorated as a nursery. Jessie accidently blurts out that Morgan and Christina were probably expecting a baby. Ravi gets incredibly upset; Christina gets infuriated with Jessie. The huge reveal almost ruins "Gotcha Day". Later on, Morgan and Christina tells them that his birth certificate had a typo and instead of Ravi being born in the year 2001, it said 2011, so that is why the Ross' were expecting a baby. In the end, Ravi forgives Morgan and Christina, and they give Zuri a zebra as a "Gotcha Day" present.
