Later, Jenny Cornelius visited [[Universe (Parallax)|the universe]] of the [[Jenny Everywhere (Parallax Universe)|“Kim's friend” Jenny]], allegedly to help [[Santa Claus (Parallax Universe)|“the fat man”]] with his [[Christmas]] deliveries. When the “Kim's friend” Jenny went up to the roof to watch for the sleigh with [[Professor Awesome (Parallax Universe)|Professor Awesome]], she ended up getting a huge snowball-from-nowhere to the face, just before she and the Professor were both blown back by a sudden gust of wind. When they opened their eyes again, two presents had been left on the roof. Jenny, who knew Cornelius was to blame for the snowball, playfully vowed that she'd get even, shouting up at the sky. A little later, she travelled to Cornelius's world, and found her counterpart out on a date in Soho with Laura Drake. With no further preamble, the visiting Jenny dropped a fistful of snow down her other self's back, giggling that “turnabout [was] fair play”. After a moment's confused flailing, Jenny Cornelius admitted as much and pulled the other Jenny into a big hug. Laura was rather confused about all this, asking if the “other Jenny” was some kind of a relative, but her good manners prevailed upon her common sense and she asked the other Jenny if she wants to join their day out on the town.

At some later point, driving back to London after some excursion in the Mod Rod, Jenny dropped by her “favourite bookseller”. He was not in himself, but she stumbled upon his [[Crowley#In Jenny Cornelius's world|Crowley]], who tipped her off about some cultists in [[Slough]] worshipping an entity calling itself the [[Tenth Lord Grell]]. Jenny phoned Laura and found that the Intelligence Taskforce were indeed aware of this cult: in fact, based on a notion that a young woman would be “inconspicuous”, which Laura found rather patronising, they had assigned Laura herself to go investigate. Laura unsuccessfully tried to convince Jenny to stay out of Slough. | At some later point, driving back to London after some excursion in the [[Mod Rod]], Jenny dropped by her “favourite bookseller”.

After finding the right building, Laura was, however, captured and tied up in a storeroom. Jenny arrived soon after, learning about Laura's general whereabouts using a pendulum inset with a lock of her hair, and about her ''exact'' whereabouts from the heavy guarding the door. After shifting one guard to parts unknown and spooking the other one by switching his weapon with a ceramic lamp, she easily banished Lord Grallyx, though not before he set the building on fire, and used her powers to unlock the door, finding Laura halfway through getting out of her bindings by herself. Because Jenny didn't want Laura's bosses to know about her [[shift]]ing abilities, she took care to make up a plausible cover story before she used them in Laura's vicinity, claiming to Laura that she was actually using hypnotism to make her forget the means by which they escaped their dire circumstances (rather than them having genuinely teleported to the safety of Laura's home in the blink of an eye). Laura was personally unconvinced but agreed to write as much in her report, which she headed off to type, though promising to spend the night with Jenny as soon as she was done.
