Survivor: The Amazon
Jenna Morasca was placed on the Jaburu tribe. Jenna was dismayed when she learned this season was a Battle of the Sexes because she wasn't able to use her "womanly powers" to manipulate the men. She was also annoyed by the Tambaqui men's cockiness. When the women arrived, Christy Smith told everyone she was deaf. Jenna viewed it as a problem because of the communication barrier. The women had a difficult time at camp. It took them a long time to make fire. They failed to make a shelter by sundown and was forced to sleep on the ground, which Jenna noted as a big no no. The next day, Jenna went fishing with Heidi Strobel and Janet Koth. Janet got exhausted very quickly, forcing to return empty handed. Despite the dysfunction at camp, the women won the first challenge of the season when Ryan Aiken and Daniel Lue had trouble crossing the beam. Although their shelter was built, it was not water proof. This resulted in being soaked during a heavy rain storm. The women won the reward challenge for fish bait, thanks to Joanna Ward. Things turned chaotic when a muesli bar wrapper was found. Janet was blamed because of a rumor started by Jeanne Hebert. The women lost the immunity and Janet was voted out for the wrapper incident and being the weakest. Jenna received a vote from Christy.

At the reward challenge, Alex Bell knew4165165nted to know how. Jenna also told Rob Cesternino that his wit was talked about at camp. The women nominated Deena Bennett to be the projects manager. Under leadership, camp life improved drastically. The women won the challenge for bath and beauty products. Jenna bathed with her friends, Heidi and Shawna Mitchell. The women also won immunity. However, Jenna gotten a rude awakening from Joanna and Jeanne. They felt that the working women was trying to make them feel bad. Joanna said that beauty is vain and your faith to god is what is important. Jenna however, felt that Joanna was picking on the younger women for having better bodies. The young women (sans Christy) aligned themselves. Under Shawna's suggestion, they tried to get Deena on their side, which she did agree. The women lost the fire building contest to the men, costing them a fridge filled with Coca-Cola. After the loss, Shawna had a breakdown and asked to be voted out. The women also lost a fishing contest for immunity. Deena felt it was best to vote out Joanna, who was a threat for her work ethic and strength in challenges. Deena had gotten Christy's vote and Joanna was voted out in a 4-2-1 vote.

Jenna and Deena tried to convince Jeanne was important to the tribe because of her work ethic, but Jeanne didn't believe it. Jeanne was angry with the women for voting out a strong person like Joanna over Shawna, who asked to be voted out. Shawna was also complaining that the others didn't respect that she was breaking down and wanted out. The tribe received tree mail, asking for its youngest member for a night of fun and wine. As Jenna was the youngest women(and youngest contestant overall), she went to represent Jaburu. She met up with Tambaqui's youngest member, Dave Johnson. They bathed, ate, and talked about their tribes. The next morning, the pair had more food awaiting them. Jeff arrived, telling them that they was picking new tribes. Dave immediately snatched up her best friend Heidi. Jenna picked Alex, Deena, Rob, and Shawna. Matthew von Ertfelda was also placed on Jaburu by virtue of being the last man left. The new tribe bonded well and they won the immunity challenge. At the reward challenge, Jenna lost to Christy both times she went up, costing them spices and seasonings. Jenna sat out of the immunity challenge, which Jaburu lost. Jenna agreed with sending home Shawna, who was more loyal to Alex that the women.

After the Tribal Council, Rob announced a plan to pretend that the men was sticking together. This was so that the votes Tambaqui men would would be diverted, allowing for the blindside of one of them. The tribes went to meet Jeff for the merge. When they arrive at the new camp site, a feast awaited them. However, Roger Sexton started to  irritated everyone when protested using the ice for cooling the beer. Roger's attitude and bossiness caused the women to view him as a Chauvinist. Jenna and Heidi successfully convinced Deena to vote out the sexist Roger over the athletic Dave, under the argument that Roger would not vote for a woman at Final Tribal Council. At the immunity challenge, Jenna wanted Peanut Butter and Chocolate so badly that she take her clothes off. Jeff complied and Heidi would join her. Butch Lockley tried not to watch the spectacle. Eventually Deena won immunity and Roger was voted out in a 7-3 vote. At the reward challenge, Jenna was teamed with Matthew and Heidi. They lost the first round. When Dave and Deena, they still wanted Manioc. This irritated Heidi and Jenna because they had Ice Cream. Jenna won the immunity challenge and Dave was unanimously voted out.

At the next reward challenge, Jenna lost in the first round. However, Alex selected her to join him on reward. The ate pastries and drank a lot of iced coffee. They returned with cookies for the others. Jenna was upset when Heidi told her that Deena was targeting Alex, feeling like she had betrayed the alliance. Matthew won a eating contest for immunity and Deena was voted out in a 6-2 vote. In the majority, Jenna relaxed instead of doing camp chores. The others was irked by this, especially Christy, who had a conflict with Jenna since the early days of Jaburu. Jenna was concerned for her mother, who was having health problems before she left to compete. At the Survivor Auction, Jenna brought a Chocolate Bar with Peanut Butter for $320. She completed against Christy for letters from home, but Christy won. However, allowed for more letters from home, which Jenna brought for $120. Jenna cried tears of Joy when she learned that her mother's health was improving, which made Heidi cry too. At the immunity challenge, Jenna learned that she was deemed most likely to just sex appeal as a weapon and was deem unable to survive on her own. After Rob won immunity, the alliance targeted Matthew for his athleticism. However, Jenna was shocked with Alex was voted out instead.

Jenna and Heidi made it clear that they were angry with Rob for his betrayal. The girls the to get Christy on their side, saying that she can go further with them than the men. At the reward challenge, Matthew won. However, he decided give up a visit from his mom so the others can spend time with their loved ones. Jenna spent time with father, Michael. He told her that her mom's health was getting better. Rob tried to make a final deal with Jenna, but she was embarrassed by thought and told him that she had morals. At the immunity challenge, Jenna scored the most pucks for Shuffleboard. She was the one to win immunity. Rob approach the Jenna and Heidi about voting out Swing Vote Christy, which they happily accepted. That night, Jenna gave immunity to Heidi. Rob kept his word and Christy was blindside in a 4-2 vote.

Jenna started to claim she had problems with her tonsils. Jenna and Heidi was thankful that Rob saved them and didn't mind being told that they was the next to go. The reward challenge was Second Chance, which Matthew won for a car. He wanted to take everyone, but was only allowed to take one person. Matthew elected to take Rob. When Jenna, Heidi and Butch returned to camp, they discover that it was burned down. Jenna had lost everything, including her letters from home and her Sorority Jacket, which was only obtainable via Hand-my-Down. The women didn't help rebuild shelter because they knew they was the next two to go on the jury. After Matthew won the immunity challenge, Jenna had a breakdown because of physical and emotional status. Although the men consider expelling her from the game, they voted out Heidi for being a bigger threat instead.

Jenna knew that she was the next to go and accepted it. She was proud for being the last woman standing and being in the final four. However, she still tried 110% in challenges. Jenna beat out Matthew for immunity. Matthew convinced Jenna that Butch didn't deserved to be here because he didn't play strategically. At the same time, he mad a finals deal with her. The next day, the final three gotten a scale at tree mail. Then Jeff came to camp and said that they was going on a seaplane ride to view the amazon. Then they would decorate themselves for the Final Immunity Challenge. Jenna defeated Rob for a guaranteed seat at Final Tribal Council. Although she considered taking Rob because she was easier to beat, Jenna took Matthew because he was more deserving. On the last day, the final two had a impromptu Rites of Passage. Jenna reflected on her time in the amazon. Matthew dismantled and burned the shelter.

When Rob asked why Jenna didn't deserve to win, Matthew said because of her lack of contributions and wanting to be voted out. Christy questioned Jenna about how her beauty was a handicap.
