Man, a whole essay could be written on just what the f*** went wrong for Jenn. Again, she really was an extremely likable, tough, smart, friendly, and of course, beautiful girl - dedicated to the game - knew how to play (cleverly playing off her idol discovery and excuse) - was prepared to manipulate even bad circumstances to her advantage (Vince's creepy crush) - knew how to separate the game and emotions (at first) - knew when to be serious (Nina) and when to have fun (surfing) - and, of course, a brilliant idol play. Again, she consistently had the strongest edit from Day One (her Vince dilemma) right up to the idol play and Kelly's boot.

But then, quite literally, it all imploded on her in three episodes or less. From Hali's boot to her own. I don't think we've EVER seen a faster decline of a great character and solid player (though not the best), and it's not JUST within the context of the season. The fact is that, pre-Hali's boot, Jenn was already a solid fan favorite and a solid contestant to represent WA in the S31 returnee pool. But now, with Hali's boot leaving Jenn in a state of "I'm basically done," that not only killed her chances within the season...it killed her chances of ever returning, because she basically pulled a FairPlay in Micronesia deal. Like, seriously. You may not think she was a great player, but you must admit she had a strong edit from the beginning and had potential in future seasons...but now, even as much as I love Jenn, even I have to admit 1) That her chances of returning are basically dead. And 2) She really did lose most of her charm and what strong gameplay she did have before.

RIP Awesome Jenn. :(
