Jes' roadtrip hook had the judges inspired for a road trip, and so she took to the co-write with Melissa and Amber. The finished song, "Home for Me" didn't give the girls the win, but it did result in Jes writing in the backseat of a car with a keyboard across her lap, which was worth it now wasn't it?

When the songwriters were challenged to write a love song, Jes had plenty of inspiration -- her budding relationship with Johnny. After her hook netted her in the top tier she got a little love sick, or just sick. Jes struggled through her co-writing session with Melissa, and the judges lamented the finished product, "It's You" was rather forgettable. But lyrics like, "Assaulting all of my senses from your smell to your sentences," kept Jes safe from elimination.

Jes' "Save Yourself" had Los Angeles pedestrians hooked, and the finished song -- written with troublemaker Nick -- left her safe for another week.
