Jenna Marshall is a fictional character created by Sara Shepard for the Pretty Little Liars book series, and later developed for the Freeform television series adaptation by I. Marlene King and portrayed by Tammin Sursok. Jenna is one of the main antagonists in the books and TV show; her blindness is a result of a prank orchestrated by Alison DiLaurentis, making it the Liars' main and most deadly secret. Although in the books Jenna is murdered in Wanted, in the show she is still alive.

Development

Characterization

Toby had described Jenna as "someone who gets whatever she wants".^[1] Although Jenna is resentful towards Alison and her friends, she volunteers to do a speech at Alison's memorial dedication in "Please, Do Talk About Me When I'm Gone". She shares only kind words, mentioning Alison's visit to her in the hospital, claiming that Ali made her stronger and more in touch with her identity.^[2]

Jenna also proves she can be slightly abusive and controlling, as she slaps Toby when he tells her he will "never touch her like that again", and asks who he thinks he's talking to.^[3] Jenna is known to show a much sadder and vulnerable side than she usually does when around people she doesn't know. She has made a beautiful pottery piece, but is frustrated that she cannot see anything, not even the shadows it produces when lit.^[4]

Rivalries and friendships

Jenna is known for her rivalries with Alison DiLaurentis, Spencer Hastings, Toby Cavanaugh, Hanna Marin, Aria Montgomery, and Emily Fields.^[5][6] Alison originally offered Jenna to become a member of her clique, but was rejected, leading Alison and The Liars to blinding Jenna, an event later nicknamed "The Jenna Thing".^[5][1][6] Jenna had romantic feelings for her step-brother Toby Cavanaugh in which she forced herself on him, he however didn't return those feelings which angered her. When Jenna discovers that Toby has romantic feelings for Emily, she reacts very spitefully. When he is arrested during the first season, Jenna discloses to him that she was the one who turned him in to the police so he would come home in hopes of continuing their relationship. In "Wanted: Dead or Alive" is revealed that Jenna and Charlotte DiLaurentis were great friends, for a long time (Mona told the story to the Liars of Jenna and Charlotte when the two were in Radley Sanitarium). For Charlotte, Jenna it was a "celebrity". Jenna knew Charlotte and Archer were together, and, in fact, had helped him develop the Elliott identity and get the hospital job. Jenna had also been helping to look for Charlotte’s birth mother.1.43^[7]

Relationships

Jenna was romantically linked with Garrett Reynolds. The two began a relationship in "For Whom The Bell Tools", as it is shown when Reynolds shows up in Jenna's room and kisses her.^[8] However, it was revealed the two were linked to the N.A.T Club, as they appeared together on the night of Alison DiLaurentis's disappearance. Jenna later dumps Garrett for unknown reasons.

Jenna was also romantically linked to Noel Kahn; the two were seen together on a romantic evening by Noel's ex-girlfriend Mona Vanderwaal and Hanna Marin. They dated for a while and seem to have broken up some point later in the third season.

As revealed in "A dAngerous Game", Jenna and Shana seemed to be in a romantic relationship although it is somewhat ambiguous. Throughout the fourth season they are seen together, although no kissing or explicit declarations of love are shown. Shana is confirmed to have been madly in love with Jenna, and it is made clear in the fifth season that Jenna also had real feelings for Shana.

Novels storylines

Jenna was popularly connected with the fairytale princess Snow White. She had pale skin, long black hair, cherry-colored lips, and soft green eyes. She also was quite tall and had a cute figure. Alison often called her 'Snow' but used the nickname in a mean way. Jenna was known to be very quiet and has a sweet, kind personality. Whenever she takes off her glasses, it can be seen that she has small bruises and cuts reaching from her eyes to her nose. It was said it could be from her stepbrother Toby.

Jenna was often the target of Alison and her crew, with jokes about her likeness to Snow White and pranks such as giving her apples dipped in toilet water. There might have been some resentment among the group about her good looks, since Hanna mentioned she was "pretty in an annoying way."

One evening, Ali convinced the others to support her plan to get revenge on Jenna's stepbrother, Toby Cavanaugh, for spying on them while they were changing. Ali snuck into the Cavanaugh's yard, grabbed one of Toby's fireworks, and accidentally launched it into his tree house. She only meant to set off the firework near it, but she told Spencer she saw Toby molesting Jenna and was so surprised that the firework launched out of her hand before she realized it. As a result, the tree house caught on fire and Jenna was blinded by the explosion of the firework. Ali blackmailed Toby into taking the blame, but no one knew if Jenna saw her as well. Later the girls would come to call the infamous incident "The Jenna Thing." They felt incredibly guilty about what happened, since they agreed that Ali should prank Toby.

However, three years later, Aria Montgomery finds herself taking an art class with Jenna. During a storm and power outage, Jenna reveals that she not only knew Ali set off the firework, but they planned it together as well. Jenna did not want to continue being sexually abused by Toby and told Aria that her parents gave Toby a warning: if he kept setting off fireworks from his tree house, he'd be sent away to boarding school. Though the plan worked, the cost to Jenna was immense; she also left Rosewood Day and attended a school for the blind in Philadelphia. By the time the second "A" wreaks significant havoc in the girls' lives, it becomes clear to Aria that Jenna knows vital information about the culprit. Unfortunately, before Aria can ask her what she knows, Jenna is found dead and stuffed in a ditch in her parents' backyard. In Wanted, it is revealed that she was murdered by the real Alison DiLaurentis.

Television storylines

In October 2008, Jenna moved to Rosewood after her mother married Toby's father and quickly became popular at Rosewood High School. Alison invited her to join her group of friends but she declined. This led to a long-term rivalry between the two. Jenna is a very aggressive and manipulative person. She forced her step-brother, Toby, into a sexual relationship with her and threatened to accuse him of forcing himself on her. After being blinded by Alison and her friends, Jenna developed a hatred and grudge against all of them. Jenna seems to have been involved with the N.A.T. Club before Alison went missing. She was not sorry for Alison's passing and has continued to keep the Liars on her radar to keep them from revealing her secrets.

Season 1

In the pilot episode, Jenna is seen being guided into Alison DiLaurentis' funeral by her step-brother Toby, much to the surprise of everyone. She is later led out to a car by Toby moments later.^[9] In "The Jenna Thing", she appears in the beginning of the episode walking into the Apple Rose Grille while the liars are there.^[5] When she sits down, they silently get up and leave. Jenna later appears in the School Cafeteria when Aria Montgomery invites her to sit with the Liars.^[5] It is an awkward lunch, as Jenna makes the girls nervous and makes reference to the group's changed dynamic since Alison's absence.^[5] Jenna tells them that Alison came to visit her while she was in the hospital.^[5] She says that everyone misunderstood Alison but that she knew exactly who Alison was.^[5] The girls are silent as they flashback to the fateful events of the night they blinded her. At one point, Jenna breaks the silence by picking up Spencer's beeping phone, when she receives a text, with Spencer paranoid to receive a text from "A" with Jenna in such close proximity.^[5] Obviously, no one found out about "The Jenna Thing," but with Toby knowing, they could never be sure about when the secret was going to slip and if "A" would ever play that card.^[5] She also appears sitting on a bench during Spencer's run, when Jenna is seen using a phone for the blind and says "Send text now," turns, and looks at where Spencer is standing.^[5] In "To Kill a Mocking Girl", Jenna is seen walking down the hallway with Toby while the girls are whispering to each other. She makes a comment such as "Whisper, whisper, whisper.^[10] Almost feels like Alison's still here." Later when Emily Fields comes to thank Toby for helping her with Ben, Jenna is present, unknown to Emily. After Emily leaves Jenna questions Toby about the reason why Emily is thanking him but he tells her it isn't what she's thinking.^[10] In "Reality Bites Me", Jenna is seen by Hanna Marin on her way to work at Dr Ackard's office. Jenna enters the elevator and puts on her lipstick. She asks Hanna if she likes the color (which is believed to be Jungle Red, which is Alison's color). It is unknown if Jenna knew she was talking to Hanna.^[11]

In "There's No Place Like Homecoming", Jenna (and her seeing eye dog Shadow) visits Emily at her home after homecoming. Emily is home from being hospitalized. She comes under the guise of being sympathetic to Emily's plight, bringing cookies to bed-ridden Emily (which Emily does sample, despite Spencer's distrust towards them later). She knows that Toby's psychological profile is missing because the cops went looking for it, and knows that the Liars have the file, having overheard them talking about it at Homecoming. She wants Emily to return the file to her, so that she can protect her secret of having forced her step-brother into a sexual relationship. Emily is open to fulfilling Jenna's request, as she feels partially responsible for Jenna's accident, something Jenna does not fail to mention repeatedly. Emily tries to get the file back, but cannot contact the girls while her mother is around. Aria later throws the file into the river. (It seems the file makes its way into "A's" hands anyway, when a figure is seen gingerly retrieving the pages from the water.) When Jenna asks for the file after Emily is back at Rosewood High, Emily vaguely tells her that the file is gone, and Jenna is put off, being put in the position where she is forced to trust Emily.^[12] In "Please, Do Talk About Me When I'm Gone", although Jenna is resentful towards Alison and her memory, Jenna volunteers a speech at Alison's memorial dedication. She shares only kind words, mentioning Alison's visit to her in the hospital, claiming that Alison made her stronger and more in touch with her identity.^[2] In the episode "The New Normal", after Toby's house arrest bracelet is to be removed, she hails a taxi cab, so the two can ride there together. She is very upset when he declines her offer, choosing to go with Spencer in her car, rather than with her.^[13] In "The Badass Seed", Jenna offers to play flute for the school play, "The Bad Seed" and tells Mr. Fitz that she is fascinated with the play and its theme, the nature of evil.^[14] She is seen talking to Ian in the episode by a similar name, taking a "Neuman's" shopping bag from him, the contents not revealed.^[14] With Mr. Fitz as her guide, Jenna writes an essay to be submitted to an essay contest with vague references to the event that blinded her.^[14] The essay centers around a blind girl that senses more than seeing people do.^[14] It seems from the essay that the incident that blinded her was not an accident, although it leads Mr. Fitz to believe her brother is guilty, not the girls.^[14] Ezra is fascinated by the story and believes it has a winning chance.^[14] At the end of the episode, Aria confides to Mr. Fitz about who the real perpetrators were.^[14] Jenna makes references to Aria's romantic relationship with Mr. Fitz, scaring Aria, because it is unclear how she knows about the couple.^[14]

In "Someone to Watch Over Me", Jenna is seen with the owl that Hanna thought was a gift for her from Caleb. However it is a flashdrive that Jenna gave to Caleb to put information on and return to her. As the girls put the pieces together they realize that Jenna had been paying Caleb to spy on Hanna and look for a key in her house that she thought Alison had given to one of the girls. A hurt Hanna slaps Jenna for what she did and Jenna cries for it.^[15]

In the season one finale "For Whom the Bells Toll", footage of Jenna pressuring Toby is uncovered.^[8] They decide to approach her for answers. Jenna is very frightened, because she knows that she could easily go to jail for her crimes, so she seems genuinely contrite. She reveals that Alison indeed visited her in the hospital, but to threaten her to never tell anyone about her role in the prank or risk Alison's revealing the footage of Jenna sexually abusing her step-brother. Her supposed last words to Jenna were, "If you ever come back to Rosewood, I'll bury you." ^[8] The girls then realize that, when Ali told them to "wait for it," she was referring to the video. Jenna calls Ian and warns him that the girls have the video, although Ian says he has it under control. Officer Garrett (who had reassured Emily that he was on the Liars' side) then shows up in Jenna's room, and the two of them share a kiss, revealing they are in a relationship.^[8]

Season 2

In the second season, the character first appears in "It's Alive", where she and Garrett are seen spying on Jason DiLaurentis and discussing the ominous-sounding “Jason thing.”^[16] Later, Jenna is secretly standing nearby as Garrett preps the girls for interrogation after Spencer's near death experience.^[16] Returning in "My Name Is Trouble", Jenna takes a pottery class at Hollis College, alongside Aria. Aria pretends to be Anita, so as to hide her identity from Jenna. It is interesting to note that when she was talking to Aria, thinking she is Anita, she shows a much sadder and more vulnerable side then she usually does. She has made a beautiful pottery piece, but is frustrated that she cannot see anything, not even the shadows it produces when lit. Aria tries to comfort her and praise her work, but when Jenna discovers that it was Aria, she goes ballistic, screaming at her to get out.^[4]

In "Surface Tension", Aria finds Jenna's pottery piece among Mike's belongings. She assumes that Mike stole it from the Cavanaugh house, but he is sure that he stole it from Garrett's apartment. This causes Aria to realize that Garrett cannot be trusted. In "Save the Date", the Liars see Garrett pull up to Toby and Jenna's House in his car. It could go either way, considering Garrett's parents live across the street. However, Garrett heads for Jenna's place, and the girls follow to watch. Inside, Jenna removes her robe to reveal the black lace lingerie she was seen buying in an earlier episode. She removes her glasses, and the two start to kiss passionately. Garrett and Jenna do a lot of spying together in Garrett's sports car. There, they constantly refer to "The Jason Thing," an ill-defined incident that may or may not be linked to Alison's death. When Jason kisses Aria, Jenna expresses her fear that the two will hook up, and Jason will reveal his secret to Aria. The latest development is the possibility that Jenna will have a cornea replacement, which means that she may regain her vision at some point in the near future. Toby fills Spencer in on the details of the matter after she overhears Jenna discussing the possibility with a nurse, while all the girls are in Rosewood Community Hospital.

In "I Must Confess", Jenna teases the girls after the assembly, asserting that Alison could have used the lesson on bullying. Emily shoots the same accusation back at Jenna and snidely tells her to move her walking stick. In "Over My Dead Body", someone shows up to the precinct, prompting Garrett to say "You shouldn't be here." He was presumably talking to Jenna. Garrett then leads her to the room on the other side of the glass of the investigation room. He locks the door, and Jenna laments that she cannot see their faces. Jenna is eager to get with Garrett, but Garrett reminds her that he was patient enough to wait to get into the storage room; he can certainly wait a few more nights. Their conversation also reveals that they wrote the note to Jason, making him suspect that he had killed his own sister, and that Jason has figured out that he is not the culprit. Garrett gives Jenna a note and instructs her to take it home and burn it. Jenna asks whether it is page 5, and Garrett doesn't contradict her assumption. Before kissing Garrett goodbye, Jenna remarks, "She deserved to die like that."

In the prequel episode "The First Secret" Jenna is first mentioned by Toby in conversation to Emily. While unpacking some of Jenna's things from the moving truck, he describes her as someone who gets whatever she wants. Later, at the costume shop, Alison spots then-new girl Jenna buying her one costume — a "Lady G." costume. She tries to intimidate her to buy a different one, declaring that that is her own costume choice for this year. The new girl noncommittally agrees to think about changing her decision, but turns her attention away from Alison. Before walking away, Alison offers her name, to which the girl replies that she already knows it, and her own name is Jenna. They smile pleasantly, if not falsely, at each other, and Alison strolls away. At Noel's bash, Alison notices Jenna dressed as Lady GaGa after all. And Noel, dressed as a gynecologist, goes right to her. When a Lady GaGa song starts playing, Ali approaches her. Jenna is flanked by boys, but they all scram when Alison orders them to. Alison offers to befriend Jenna, thereby making her popularity in Rosewood a sure thing. However, Jenna turns her down and says that she likes to pick her own friends. When Jenna saunters away victoriously, Mona declares her the best Gaga, and the two introduce themselves, seeming to start a friendship. Outside on the porch, a sulky Ali jealously calls Jenna a slut. Back in the party, Emily is seen slow-dancing with Ben on the dance floor. Jenna is seductively dancing nearby, and Emily ogles appreciatively at her curves and moves. Alison turns her eyes from one to the other, approaches Emily, and alludes to her secret sexual orientation.

In "A Hot Piece of A", she argues with Garrett over the phone and refuses to let him in the house. Garrett says it was a mistake for them to bring a third person in on their plan. Later, she leaves for her eye surgery in Boston without Garrett. In "Let the Water Hold Me Down", it is revealed that Jenna went to "Kristen August Rehabilitation Center For The Blind" after the Jenna Thing happened. In "Eye of the Beholder", Jenna's eye is bandaged implying that she got the surgery. During the episode, someone lures Jenna to the house of Jason DiLaurentis and then sets it on fire, trapping Jenna inside with the intent to murder her. She is rescued by Hanna, who happened to be near the DiLaurentis household. She goes to the hospital and has to stay there under observation. This marks the first time in the series that Jenna seems to be frightened. She asks to see Aria, Spencer, Hanna, and Emily. While they're in her hospital room, she asks if it's true that Hanna pulled her out of the fire. When Hanna confirms this, Jenna asks her why she did it and she seems grateful to Hanna. Hanna doesn't answer her question, but simply responds "You're welcome." Later in the episode, "A" is seen planting Garret's police badge at the scene of the fire, in order to implicate him in the attack on Jenna. Since Jenna is still in the hospital when this happens, she can be ruled out as the one behind the "A" scheme.

In "If These Dolls Could Talk", Jenna removes the bandage from her eye and cryptically begins to cry. Later, at school, she approaches the four main characters at their lunch table and apologizes for having hated them, saying that when Hanna pulled her out of the fire, she realized that people were capable of changing. However, her apology is met with suspicion by all four girls. She shares with them the "unfortunate results" of her surgery. Later, Toby comes into her room questioning her as to why Garrett is watching their house. She says she doesn't know, and asks him to close the curtains. She pulls a slip of paper from a box on her night table, and gives it to him. Telling him that it was given to her by Garrett and was told to keep it safe. She lies, playing stupid, and claiming to not know what it is. Toby opens it revealing it to be the missing Page 5 of Alison DiLaurentis' autopsy report. They then go to the police station to give it to the police. At the end, she is seen smacking a fly on her mirror and removes it's corpse, she turns back to her mirror with a sneaky smirk and continues to remove her makeup, revealing that she is indeed able to see. The surgery was successful after all, and for unknown reasons Jenna is lying to everyone and leading them to believe she is still 100% blind.

In "UnmAsked", Jenna has a mysterious secret meeting with someone at a park and gives something to him/her, stating that "they're all going to be at the party; you know what you need to do". She is later seen at the masquerade party spying on Aria, and seen talking to Lucas and the Black Swan.

Season 3

Her return for the third season happened in "Blood is the New Black", when the Liars have reason to believe that Jenna is faking being blind when Toby finds prescription eye drops dated after Jenna's eye surgery with the prescription being renewed.^[17] To test this theory, the Liars planted an earring in the girls' bathroom at school and hid in the stalls. Jenna is proven to be faking the blindness when she picks up and examines the earring.^[17] They decided to keep quiet about this newfound knowledge so that they could possibly use Jenna's secret against her later.^[17]

In "Kingdom of the Blind", Emily sees a flashback of Jenna driving her the night she was drugged and taken to Alison's dug-up grave.^[18] Jenna is pressing Aria to find out how much Emily remembers from "that night."^[18] The girls follow Jenna to a gun shop, in which Hanna confronts a clearly not-blind Jenna at the wheel of her car.^[18] Jenna tells them that she's been able to see from the first operation and she's kept it a secret because according to her "it was the only protection" she had.^[18]

In "That Girl is Poison", Jenna, who has by then openly revealed she can see again, invites the girls to her birthday party.^[19] This prompts Spencer to question the purpose of Jenna's party. She appears at school without the shades or the cane, and everyone except the Liars start congratulating her. When Spencer asks her why she states that she feels a lot safer when she's in charge of what happens to her. She throws a party for her birthday at the coffee house.

In "Crazy", CeCe Drake calls Jenna and warns her not to date Nate St. Germain (whom she was flirting with at the time) in an attempt to bring him closer to Emily. CeCe tells her she'll scratch her eyes out if she sees her with him and that she's his girlfriend. In "What Lies Beneath", Jenna is seen by Nate and Emily at the Brew talking to Noel. When Noel goes to practice, Nate approaches her and tells her he has a gift for her but never had the chance to give it to her because she ditched him. Jenna ignores this and attempts to leave but Nate won't let her go by. Nate decides to leave but in the background Jenna is seen sitting back down. In "Single Fright Female", Nate discovers she had been faking being blind for a while and calls her out for acting like she doesn't see him. Later, she shows up at Emily's a little scared saying she needs to tell her something but seeing that she has company she just warns her to be very careful with who she spends time with and is seen getting into a cab and is possibly leaving town since the driver was putting luggage in the trunk.

In "A dAngerous gAme", Jenna is seen at her house talking on her phone. Newspapers and mail are piled up on the front porch as if the house has been uninhabited for a while. Someone is watching her through the window and sends a text message as "A" with a meeting time and place. Jenna simultaneously receives a text message, gets off the phone, and looks out the window, but no one is there. We find out later in the episode that it was Spencer watching and taking photos of Jenna, but the text was sent to Toby. Jenna meets with Shana in the park and they appear to be very friendly. She tells Shana that "they" will all be there Friday and she knows what she needs to do. Shana asks about her doctor's appointment and Jenna implies she may be losing her sight again, with Shana telling her that even in her darkest days, she'll be there for her. While out for a run, Emily sees Melissa enter Jenna's house. Inside, Melissa and Jenna seem to be arguing with Jenna telling Melissa that "they have the tapes" and Melissa tells her that "those bitches will be at the lodge at 9." Melissa gives Shana a copy of the invitation. The night of the "party" Toby sees a girl in the woods just before he gets knocked out from behind. Many fans believe the girl he sees is Jenna but it has not been confirmed. We see the four liars and Mona driving back to Rosewood. They come upon Wilden's police car that Hanna and Aria previously pushed into a lake. The video recorder is playing the incident where Hanna's mom ran over Wilden, but this time they see that afterward, Jenna and Shana rushed over to his body and dragged him away.

Season 4

During the fourth season's premiere, "'A' is for A-l-i-v-e", Mona confirms that Jenna and Shana knew each other before coming to Rosewood, and she also says Jenna was scared of Melissa. In a later scene Jenna approaches Emily outside her house. Because of the way the scene is shot, we can see that Jenna is losing her vision again. We also see she has a burn on her hand; implying she was at the lodge the night of the fire. She tells Emily that she and Wilden were friends and that she has a message for Toby in case anything happens to her. Everyone who saw Ali that night is waking up dead meaning Wilden saw Ali, which she said Garrett told her. Since Toby isn't taking Jenna's calls and she knows he and Emily are still friends, she asks Emily to tell him that she never meant to hurt him. Later, at Wilden's funeral we see that Jenna is wearing her glasses again and being escorted by Nigel Wright, indicating her vision continues to decline.

In "Face Time", it is revealed that the reason Jenna, Melissa and Shana were working with Wilden and the "A-Team" was because he was blackmailing them to do so, under the orders of someone else (later revealed to be Big "A").

In "Into the Deep", Spencer and Aria eavesdrop on a conversation Shana and Jenna are having. It's revealed Jenna believes Alison is still alive. Later, Jenna is seen with Shana at Emily's surprise birthday party. Spencer asks Jenna if she's losing her sight because she is wearing her sunglasses, but Jenna replies " I see everything I need to". Aria begs Jenna to tell her what she knows, but Jenna seems afraid. Later, Emily finds a body face down in the lake, and it is Jenna. Someone had hit her on the back of the head and she fell into the lake. She is unconscious, but is alive and is taken to a hospital. Spencer asks Shana who Jenna is so afraid of, and Shana replies "Cece Drake."

During the fourth season's finale, "A is for Answers", Alison revealed that she originally believed Jenna to be "A" so she visited Jenna in the hospital.^[6] Alison who at this point was trying to find out who A was threatens Jenna to not come back to town. Once she turned around to leave, she received a text from A, that read "Bitch can't see you, but I do. Tonight is the night I kill you".

Season 5

In the series' 100th episode "Miss Me x 100" a bus rolls to a stop across the street, and when the vehicle drives away, Jenna, who has arrived back in Rosewood, comes face to face with Alison, Aria and Ezra. Later while sitting on her bedroom floor crying, Jenna hears movement around her room and calls out, “whose there?” only to get no response. At Aria’s front door, Jenna tells her “I knew it was you in my bedroom today”, and wants to know what Aria was doing in her house. Aria asks her if she wants to come inside, she can make them some tea, but all Jenna would like is an answer. Aria tells her she heard about Shana and wanted to see if she was okay, and Jenna wonders why Aria would care if she is okay. Aria tells her with Alison back, it is bringing back a lot of stuff for everyone and they all feel really terrible about their part in the accident. Jenna reminds Aria that she still has all her friends, while she on the other hand, doesn’t have anyone left. As Jenna is turning to leave, Aria again offers her tea, and tells her that while she didn’t really know Shana, Jenna can tell her all about Shana. Turning back around, Jenna tells Aria that she thinks that would help, “thank you, Aria”. Pulling up to a picnic ground, Sydney and Jenna step out of Sydney's car. Sydney comments on the mustang parked in front of them, and Jenna tells her that it used to be hers. Walking over to Mona, Sydney informs her that the Liars do not want things to go back to the way they were. Jenna says that they remember the way Alison treated them, like they were her dolls. Mona is happy by this and thinks that maybe they can get rid of Alison. The three girls turn to look as a third car pulls up.

In "March of Crimes", Jenna comes out of one of the adjoining rooms and into the music room. Greeting Jenna, Alison tells her who it is, and says that she didn’t know Jenna had enrolled at Rosewood. Jenna states that she came back a few weeks ago, and that nobody seemed to notice, “but then again, I didn’t come back from the dead”. Alison mentions that she’s sorry about Shana, and that she meant a lot to her too. Thanking her, Jenna says that she’s sorry for Alison as well and that she heard about the break in last night, “it must be hard to come back here knowing someone is still after you”. When Jenna starts walking out, Alison asks her to wait before wondering how Jenna did it. Jenna asks Alison “what?”, and Alison says that Shana was her friend first, before wondering how Jenna turned her against her. Looking over her shoulder, Jenna tells Alison "you did". Walking out of a consulting room and into the waiting room, Jenna and Sydney stop when Emily recognises Sydney. As Emily asks Sydney what she is doing at the Optometrists, Jenna explains that Sydney was her ride, before asking if that is a problem. Emily wonders when Jenna and Sydney became friends, and when Jenna tries to get Sydney to walk away with her, Spencer tells Sydney that Emily asked her a question. Stepping in, Jenna says that it sounded more like an accusation, and when Emily asks Sydney why she never mentioned she and Jenna were friends, Jenna comments that “maybe it never came up”. Spencer tells Jenna that maybe she should let Sydney speak for herself, and when Jenna asks, “excuse me?”, Spencer comments that when you ask the organ grinder a question you don’t really want to hear an answer from the monkey. Jenna asks Sydney if they can “please leave”, and when Emily tries to get them to wait, Jenna wonders, “for more insults?”, before questioning Spencer and Emily how long it is going to take to realise that they are nervous around the wrong person. Linking her arm with Sydney’s, Jenna starts to move off

In "How the 'A' Stole Christmas", Jenna is part of the school choir who are singing Christmas songs for Shady Days Nursing Home, along with Paige, Emily, Lucas and Sydney. Jenna is mingling with residents of Shady Days Nursing Home. Unbeknownst at the time, Jenna is one of Alison’s followers as Alison makes her grand entrance at the Masquerade Ice Ball. Still wearing a masquerade mask, Jenna and another one of Alison’s followers, later revealed as Sydney, pose for a photo with Lucas, who is dressed as Santa Claus. Lucas tells the two masked beauties to come in closer, and after the photo is taken, he wishes them a Merry Christmas. After gaining Emily’s attention, Jenna and Sydney begin walking through the crowd, with Sydney looking over her shoulder to make sure Emily follows. As Emily enters the room which has been draped off with fabric, Jenna sits on the couch, while Sydney reveals herself to Emily and explains that she led Emily here because she doesn’t want Alison to see them talking. As Sydney walks towards Jenna, Emily tells Sydney that she really gets around, and questions if Jenna knows Sydney is with Alison now. Jenna then takes off her mask and reveals herself to Emily, “when I first moved to Rosewood, Alison offered to be my friend. I made the mistake of saying no. When she asked me this time, I gave her the right answer”. Sydney tells Emily that she promises that they’re not the enemy, but Emily says that they are sleeping with the enemy. Jenna tells Emily that until someone puts “Ali away”, they’re just doing what they have to do to survive, “I’m sure you and your friends understand that”. Emily then tells Jenna and Sydney that they think Alison killed Mona, and Sydney comments that she and Jenna do to.

Season 6

Jenna is mentioned by the girls to being Lucas Gottesman's date to the senior prom as they see a photo of the two on their phones. In "Game Over Charles", Jenna made a one second cameo appearance when the liars are leaving the church and asking about who is the lady in black in a flashback.

Season 7

During "Hit and Run, Run, Run", Jenna appears at The Radley whilst the Liars are discussing the events that lead to Elliott's death. As she bumps into the girls, they are speechless at her unexpected reemergence and she explains that her return to Rosewood is due to Toby and Yvonne's engagement. Later, Toby arrives at the police station and crosses paths with his stepsister. He argues with Jenna about her arrival to town though she assures him that her intentions are to solely make amends. After Hanna and Mona find Hanna's golden bracelet on Elliott's car, they hear his burner phone ringing. When Mona answers the call, Jenna's voice is heard from the other end answering “Hi, Archer, can you hear me? It's Jenna, Jenna Marshall”, thus revealing Elliott's real name and that she's somehow involved in A.D.'s game.

She remains around Rosewood in "Along Comes Mary" and befriends Sara Harvey. Meanwhile, Aria and Emily discover that Jenna was on Archer's payroll for unknown reasons. At the end of the episode, she and Sara are having drinks at The Radley when an unknown figure approaches the two and reveals themselves to be Noel Kahn, who proceeds to join the duo. When confronted by Emily in regards to her involvement with Archer during "Wanted: Dead or Alive", Jenna admits she befriended Charlotte DiLaurentis after reading about her stay at Welby and reached out. In a flashback, Jenna was enlisted by Charlotte to find her birth mother and help Archer make the alias of Elliott Rollins. The plan was for Dunhill to purposely meet Alison and use her good intentions to benefit Charlotte's eventual release from Welby.

During "Original G'A'ngsters", Spencer and Hanna manage to break into Jenna's room at The Radley with Caleb's aid, who disguised himself as a massager in order to steal from Jenna's bag the key that opens the mysterious box located under her bed. In it, the girls find several papers but their investigation process is interrumped by the sound of someone slowly opening the door. The person hides Mary's old Radley Sanitarium file inside the box and is revealed to be Noel Kahn, who is seen angrily dialing Dr. Cochran (the person who handled the birth of both Mary's children).

In "The DArkest Knight", Hanna abducts Noel in an attempt to obtain a confession from him that proves he's their tormentor, but he doesn't regain consciousness. Impatient, she instead ends up slashing his face with a knife to test his DNA and see if it matches Mary Drake's. The results later come back negative and Kahn ends up escaping when he finally awakens. The Liars all get a text message ordering them to head over to 1465, Elm Street. Once they arrive to the location, the girls make their way inside an abandoned school for blind students where they're attacked by Noel and Jenna, with the later tracking them down at gunpoint (due to her blindness). During the cat-and-mouse chase, Emily and Hanna end up fighting Noel which causes him to stumble upon an axe that decapitates him. Jenna then shoots at the Liars and manages to hit Spencer. As Jenna prepares to finish her off, Mary suddenly emerges from behind and knocks her down. While Mary attempts to help Spencer, an unknown figure drags Jenna away from the building. At the end of the episode, the annonymous person places her in the back of a van, while she questions them if they were responsible for the gunshot that hit Spencer or not. As they proceed to rip off an old man's mask and toss it over to Jenna's side, Marshall feels it up and realizes that A.D. was the one who abducted her.
