When Jess spoke to Joey during the cocktail party, she joked about how she could already envision himself being a part of his family and having sisters for the first time.
"She has this sweetness about her... and a love for life inside of her. She's someone I could see building a life with, 100 percent," Joey told The Bachelor cameras before kissing her.

It only took one conversation for Jess to think that she was already "falling in love."
Jess shared in a confessional, "I have literally never in my life felt like this. I think I just had my first kiss with my future husband. I just want to scoop him up and talk to him again!"
Jess did just that, which rubbed her fellow bachelorettes the wrong way. Jess also announced to the entire group of Night 1 women that she had received "a smoochy poo" from The Bachelor star.
Some of the women thought Jess' announcement was rude, disrespectful and arrogant, but Jess boasted to the cameras how everyone should just go home because she was going to walk away with Joey in the end.
Is Jess going to redeem herself and get along with Joey's remaining bachelorettes, or will she continue to stir the pot and maybe even become a villain on The Bachelor this season?
