Trivia[]

  • In the books, her last name was Cavanaugh, and she was killed due to knowing too much.
  • Her villain status was mostly unclear in Season 5, but she returned to being an antagonist in the seventh season, where she is now working for Uber A.
  • She did not appear physically in the series' sixth season. However, she appears briefly in archive footage and is mentioned a few times.
  • She is a vastly more sympathetic character in the original novels. In the book series, Toby forces himself on her, while in the television series, she forces him into a relationship, commenting that it would be easy to convince their parents that it was the other way around. Also in the books, Jenna forgave the Liars for the incident and was more willing to work with them, while in the show, she is actively out to get them and even works for Uber A against them.
  • Her continuing desire to murder the protagonists is especially egregious given that they have saved her life on two separate occasions.
