Selecting specific cells

Question

$('table.listings td:contains("You")').each(function(){
 $(this).children('td:nth-child(2)').addClass('highlighted');
});

I have multiple table.listings on the page but the one that contains "You" is selected and I want to addClass highlighted to the 2nd cell in each row, but the above code isn't working as I expected.

Thanks
