In **Give It Up**, she sets up Angela and CJ on a date. When she meets up with her boyfriend and Harrison, she is set off by her boyfriend's disrespectful comments, which eventually leads to her confessing JJ's plans to Harrison. In a game of truth or dare, she graciously sits on Jace's lap and dares Harrison to kiss her on the cheek.

In **Communication Breakdown**, she holds Angela back from getting in the middle of JJ beating up Harrison.

In **Nothing Compares 2 U**, she wants to make JJ jealous, so she uses Daynah. Knowing Sebastian will interrupt the process, she asks her sister to distract Sebastian. This later falls apart, but her plan had already been completed. JJ was jealous. But JJ and Daynah get into a physical confrontation. Jenny tries to seperate it, which results in JJ pushing her into a table and giving her a black eye.

Angie convinces her that she doesn't need another boyfriend right now, she just needs to keep busy and get a life, along with some new friends. But when Angie tells her that JJ's friends only like her because they want to do dirty things with her, she is insulted that Angie thinks she is considering these things. The next day, Jenny befriends a girl named Daniela, who tells her secrets about female friendships and how to take advantage of guys lusting over her.

### About JJ and Jenny

When one is looking for their perfect match, they generally look for someone who is a lot like them. This relationship exposed the flaws in that exact philosophy with petty arguements, and aftermaths of these arguements. They both had stopped truly lusting over each other, and were really only staying together because they were so used to being together. It wasn't until Jenny became sick of this toxic relationship that she decided to end it.
