Jennifer had been dancing, drinking and having a good time until closing. Jennifer had no way to get home and no one at the restaurant knows with whom she left with. She was last scene making phone calls in the parking lot. It's possible that she left in a car that was described as a gray colored Chevy Corsica with a dented door.
