The episode started with benson deciding to stop setting he tab;e for breakfast becaue the tates never sat down for it anyway. denis philips was revealed to be jody's lover. danny started trying to kill burt. I didn't hear about 4 children.

Mary had two children, Danny and Jody, and Burt had two children, Peter and Chuck. Peter died after Chester knocked a flower pot on his head.
Jessica had three children, Billy and Eunice who are her children with Chester, and Corrine who is later revealed to be Jessica and Chester's neice. -

I've just been watching season 3, and in episode 16 Jessica and Corinne are drinking coffee in the Tate kitchen. Corinne said how difficult it is to date with a child - that men seem to run the other way. Jessica then replies 'Tell me about it - I've had 4', and Corinne then says, 'but, Ma - all of your children are grown up now.'
Eunice and Billy are both hers, and Corinne was adopted, meaning there is still one unaccounted for. I've read the producers had a 5-season plot line in mind, so perhaps we would have seen her 4th child in S5 if the show has survived beyond S4.
The main thing, of course, is that you're not crazy. -

I think they would have done something with a fourth child if they had not cancelled it. I hated the cancellation. The way it ended was stupid. If they wanted to cancel it, they should have let them wrap it up better.

I just saw an ep. where she said that. It was during season 3. Corrine was complaining about it being hard to have a social life(i.e. get laid)when you have a baby. Jessica said "I know I have four of them."
I think it might have been the ep where Eunice left. -

Thanks for narrowing it down. I have all 4 seasons in MP4 form so I was able to find it once I had some sort of reference point.
It's in Season 03 Episode 16. Corrine is in the kitchen making lunch for her baby when Jessica walks in and they chat. Corrine complains that it's difficult dating with a kid and Jessica says she knows because she has "4", Corrine then tells her that it's different because Jessica's children are all grown. Billy then enters to say how sick of Leslie he has become.
It could have been a slip of the tongue, a plot twist they never visited, or her father that was like a child but certainly then not in the "all grown up" category. -

Well Happy Days and Family Matters both introduced a sibling that later disappeared without any explanation. Why not mention a character that is never shown?

By coincidence I have just read on Soap Wikipedia entry that a storyline that Jessica had a long lost son was wrote for the show but was cancelled. So it is possible that she mentioned 4 children as they prepared for a new story.
