The then nameless Jenny pushed a button which triggered an explosion, collapsing the tunnel and cutting the group off from the Hath and Martha. Shortly after, Jenny was named by Donna from the Doctor's description of her as a "generated anomaly." Jenny's commander, [[Cobb (The Doctor's Daughter)|Cobb]], imprisoned the Doctor, Donna, and Jenny where Donna proved that Jenny was indeed the Doctor's daughter by listening to her [[binary vascular system]]. However, the Doctor insisted that she was nothing more than an "echo" and that a "real" [[Time Lord]] was "so much more."

By kissing [[Cline]] and stealing his [[pistol]], Jenny was able to allow them to escape, impressing the Doctor with her capability, even if he didn't care for her inclination towards violence, having to later convince her not to kill Cobb. As the three of them made their way through Messaline, Jenny spoke with the Doctor about the possibility of travelling with him, and he told her that he would never leave her. The Doctor told the respective parties to end the war, whereupon General Cobb aimed his gun and shot at him, Jenny jumping in the way of the bullet. She was shot through one of her hearts, but she did not [[regenerate]], so she died.

Believing her to be dead, the Doctor left the planet. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Daughter (TV story)}}) While she was shot through one of her twin hearts, as she was not a Time Lord she was unable to [[regenerate]] and recover from her fatal injury. However, due to her death being in close proximity to the Source, its gaseous compound revived her.

However, after her father left the planet, Jenny was revived by [[the Source (The Doctor's Daughter)|the Source]]. She stole [[Jenny's shuttle|a shuttlecraft]] and left Messaline. When asked where she was going, she restated Donna's earlier description of the Doctor's life: "Oh, I've got the whole universe: planets to save, civilisations to rescue, creatures to defeat — and an awful lot of running to do." ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Daughter (TV story)}})

Travelling around in [[Jenny's bowship|her bowship]], Jenny tracked the progress of a [[white hole]] to the planet [[Sultath]], where she encountered [[Jack Harkness]] and [[Tara Mishra]]. Failing to save them, she flew after them into the white hole, becoming trapped herself. She was saved by the [[Fifth Doctor]] who in doing so, was sucked in himself. Jenny tracked [[the Doctor|her father]] through multiple [[incarnation]]s. but he rarely stayed in one place long enough for her to make contact with him. She managed to track the [[Eleventh Doctor]] to the [[Siege of Trenzalore]] but was unable to contact him owing to [[Trenzalore force field|the force field]] that the [[Papal Mainframe]] had established. Jenny then travelled to [[St Luke's University]], another of the few places the Doctor was sedentary, where she met the [[Twelfth Doctor]] to get his help. As she told him what had happened, her bowship was analysed by [[Unified Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]] personnel, [[the Void]] energy saturating its hull infecting [[Kate Stewart]] and [[Patronella Osgood|Osgood]]. Immune to the white energy thanks to being [[time travel]]lers, the Doctor, Jenny, [[Bill Potts]] and [[Nardole]] entered the TARDIS, only to find that it merged with the version occupied by the [[Tenth Doctor]], [[Gabby Gonzalez]] and [[Cindy Wu]], grounding the ship. Ejecting themselves, the group emerged on the university's lawn, finding a white hole that threatened to devour the planet before the [[Ninth Doctor]] saved them from the possessed students. Though the group tried to use his TARDIS to escape, it too had merged with its other selves before the [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Josie Day]] emerged from it. Deciding to use the bowship, the Ninth, Tenth, and Twelfth Doctors flew into the portal to discover the source of the threat. Left to hold the line, Jenny rallied the companions to hold off the possessed forces before the threat passed. Deprived of her bowship, Jenny was returned to her proper time and place by the Ninth Doctor. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Lost Dimension (comic story)|The Lost Dimension]]'')

Another account implied the Doctor was unaware of her survival, as the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] told the soon to be formed [[Team TARDIS]] that her "entire family had died" a long time prior. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Woman Who Fell to Earth (TV story)}})

Prior to November 2013, Jenny was considered a "companion presumptive". It is clear, once the Doctor accepted her as his daughter, that she would travel with him and Donna. Her "death" ended these plans. In the ''[[Prisoners of Time]]'' comic miniseries released five years after ''The Doctor's Daughter'', all of the Doctor's companions were kidnapped by Adam Mitchell. Jenny was revealed among those kidnapped, marking her inclusion as a companion. In the 2017 comic, ''[[The Lost Dimension (comic story)|The Lost Dimension]]'', Jenny joined [[Bill Potts]] and [[Nardole]] as a companion of the Twelfth Doctor.

=== Resurrection ===
The reference book ''[[The Time Traveller's Almanac]]'', which is not accepted as a [[Tardis:Valid sources|valid source for in-universe articles on this wiki]], suggests that Jenny's revival was not due to [[regeneration]] but rather [[The Source (The Doctor's Daughter)|the Source]], as suggested by visual cues in the episode.
