Thanks Karen for sharing this story about Jenny. It's important for me to see the humanity in people like Jenny. I mean it's important for me to see that she is vulnerable and I'm sure not why but it is. We had humanity when we were in. We laughed and learned and did great things and suffered and we were real people if a bit nutty. Seeing Jenny adopting a smarmy, attack-dog persona is hard to stomach. She looks so artificial and nasty and mean and low and repulsive. Simply denigrating Jenny's behavior doesn't do anything for me. However, watching very closely it's obvious that she's playing a game that isn't her, but it's convincing except when considering how much effort and energy she's putting into it. If my ex-girlfriend drove 200 miles to tell me I'm unimportant and she doesn't care about me, I'd have to think of her actions say otherwise.
If Jenny and Davey really, truly didn't care about Marty, they wouldn't have even stopped.
It's insane to think of the abuse Jenny has suffered and still asks for more and even thinks she is doing the right thing by helping "mankind".
I think the most depressing thing about Jenny is the timeline when that 7 days without sleep would have occurred. See Dave broke up her marriage to Tom Devotch, one of his supposed closest friends, when he decided he'd like to have a fling with his wife. So Jenny was promoted up the rank and much like Lou became a "communicator" for Dave. Once he was bored with her, he didn't just send her back to flag or some other post...no. He kept her at INT and began slowly torturing and abusing her.
It wasn't enough to make her a sexual plaything for his sick ego, he then needed to degrade and hurt her further by humiliating and abusing her over the next several years at INT. I think he best way to describe her is a abused girlfriend/manchurian candidate. The years of abuse were to one way for him to be sure she was still totally loyal and devoted to him, regardless of what evil shit he does to her.
Given the godlike status and adulation DM demands, I'm sure Jenny still "loves" or is obsessed with him in a romantic way and her still being at INT and going on all these humiliating psycho missions for Dave (CNN interview, Mike Rinder parking lot ambush, and now the LAX episode) are her way of proving her love and loyalty to DM. DM knows this and it's way to ensure he has a virtual slave to do his bidding and long as she harbors some faint hope that one day Dave will take her back and realize she is the most loyal woman he will ever find.
I think that's one of the main reasons Jenny looks so psychotic - she is - she's a victim of domestic violence, stockholm syndrome and cult abuse.
