[[Jenny Everywhere (Parallax Universe)|Jenny]] joins a number of her other incarnations in [[Universe F (Paying It Forward)|another universe]] to spook a [[Sandy-haired man (Paying It Forward)|sandy-haired man]] who apparently did a great, if unspecified, wrong to some other Jenny. The story's main Jenny plays her small part as, while walking down the street, the man finds that everyone around him — from the [[Jenny Everywhere 3 (Second Date)|biker]] to even the [[Jenny Everywhere#Shih tzu Jenny|shih tzu dog]] — is a version of Jenny. The “helpful” Jenny and “shifh tzu” Jenny soon climb onto the “biker” Jenny's motorcycle and they give chase to their quarry all the way to [[Elysium Park]], where he comes across [[Jenny Everywhere#Confrontation in Elysium Park|the local Jenny Everywhere]], much to his surprise. Realising everyone in the park is also Jenny, he is appropriately cowed as the local Jenny chews him out. With their work done, the biker Jenny tells the “helpful” Jenny that there's going to be an afterparty and invites her along.

[[Jenny Everywhere (Parallax Universe)|Jenny]] indeed joins the afterparty. After listening to other Jennies' guesses as to what precisely the [[Sandy-haired man (Paying It Forward)|sandy-haired man]] had done, she tries to get close to [[#Jerry at the afterparty|Jerry]], but finds many other Jennies vying for his attention, with the [[Jenny Everywhere#Shih tzu Jenny|shih tzu]] eventually winning out (by virtue of being a cute dog). She has a quiet, ponderous moment wondering how other people would see this gathering of versions of herselves, before deciding that, actually, if they don't see this peaceful gathering of (outwardly) highly different people as a good thing, it's their loss.

* Present at the “scaring the sandy-haired man” free-for-all and at the afterparty are the [[Jenny Everywhere 3 (Second Date)|“biker” Jenny]], a [[Jenny Everywhere#Shih tzu Jenny|shih tzu Jenny]] who wears a short pink scarf, the [[Jenny Everywhere 3 (Beauty as a Beast)|“ninja” Jenny]], the [[Jenny Everywhere 4 (Beauty as a Beast)|“barbarian” Jenny]], a [[Jenny Everywhere#Priest Jenny|“priest” Jenny]], a [[Jenny Everywhere#Silver jumpsuit Jenny|Jenny]] wearing “a silver jumpsuit with a blinking LED scarf”, and a handsome male incarnation called [[Jenny Everywhere#Jerry at the afterparty|Jerry]].

* A Jenny with silver hair and a blindfold, thus fitting the description of [[Cha Ni]], previously appeared in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Second Date (short story)|Second Date]]'' as one of the patrons of “[[the Restaurant]]”, as did the “[[Jenny Everywhere 3 (Second Date)|biker Jenny]]”.
