She says that she<o:p></o:p> not only doesn't want to follow a crowd, she doesn't want her own crowd either. She tells Amelia<o:p></o:p> to find a quiet corner someplace and practice being an individual. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Amelia states that she thought she and Daria were friends and that she looked forward to seeing Daria at Camp Grizzly. The truth, according to Amelia, is that Daria just doesn't like anybody. Daria has a <o:p></o:p> pained expression on her face when Amelia angrily leaves. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Sitting alone and dejected while Skip gives his final speech. When Daria tries to sit at Amelia's table and<o:p></o:p> make a sarcastic joke about Skip's speech, Amelia says nothing, but gets up and makes a speech of her own.<o:p></o:p> * Gives an angry speech at Camp Grizzly. Interrupts Skip Steven's speech, and when he says that he's talking,<o:p></o:p> Amelia keeps the mike and says that that's all Skip ever does. She points out that that she had just been<o:p></o:p> following Skip's directions against her wishes and that she would just "follow the herd" and "lead a life of<o:p></o:p> quiet desperation" (lines deliberately taken from Daria's rant to Amelia about why she hates Camp Grizzly).<o:p></o:p> The only reason she came back is to see her "role model" and "inspiration", Daria. She emphasizes that Daria<o:p></o:p> is an unpleasant person -- her revised opinion about Daria clearly hasn't changed -- but that she respects Daria's need to march to her own drummer and will do the same from now on, even if Amelia ends up with<o:p></o:p> "no friends", just like Daria. She says that she has no intention of ever returning to Camp Grizzly, and<o:p></o:p> turns in her Camp Grizzly T-shirt, which leads to the crowd pelting Skip with their own Camp Grizzly<o:p></o:p> T-shirts. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Is talking with Daria at the end of the reunion again. Amelia states that she hopes she didn't hurt Daria's feelings.<o:p></o:p> Daria says that words can't hurt her, unless they're truthful and exceptionally observant words -- like<o:p></o:p> Amelia's.

Trent replies that Daria is 18, and that’s good enough for Axl. However, Axl’s premises seem to be lacking in cleanliness. Monique arrives to get antiseptic for her nose piercing, Axl warns Daria not to be scared when mucus starts “pouring out” of her belly piercing, and tells her to take 50 milligrams of “some metal or other - zinc, aluminum, I forget”)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Hint: Five letter word, begins with a “v”.

Her dimensions and fashions have changed to reflect current trends over the last 50 years, but with her fashions, townhouses, and other toy accessories, Barbie remains perpetually popular.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (505), Jane points out two stains on the pizza shop wall -- one which looks like Barbie's corvette and the other like Eleanor Roosevelt.

(502)<o:p></o:p> * Jake is fired by Barkman after Jake relies on a buzzword-laden presentation to obscure the fact -- which came out<o:p></o:p> in the presentation -- that Jake had a graphics-intensive presentation prepared which was lost when the<o:p></o:p> computer went down. Barkman liked the insight of a frustrated computer-user, but does not fail to note that<o:p></o:p> Jake wasn't joking. (502)<o:p></o:p> * Immediately rehires Jake as a consultant in (502) due to his "angry and confused" perspective. When Jake asks<o:p></o:p> Noah what kind of job Buzzdome.com does, Noah answeres, "do you want to, or not?"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Barlow, Terry Perry: Businessman first seen in (407). Barlow is the keynote speaker at the "eatertainment" conference Jake attends. Jake calls him a "franchising genius" and states that he made $40 million off the Pizza Forest franchise.<o:p></o:p> * Wrote the book, "I Did It, Why Can't You"<o:p></o:p> * Is into ballooning -- states that his quick action rescued his crew -- according to Jake, "he climbed up the ropes and opened the rip panel with his teeth" <o:p></o:p> * Has assistant named Arlo, who tells Daria and Jake that it was Arlo, not Barlow, who saved the crew by opening<o:p></o:p> the panel with his teeth<o:p></o:p> * States that he has a pair of newborn children, had to pay their mother "a large settlement".<o:p></o:p> * Refers to Daria as "the little four-eyed girl".<o:p></o:p> * Has plans for new theme restaurant chain, "Alligator Alley".<o:p></o:p> * Disdains market research and consulting -- states that he can learn more in a conversation than a "50 page"<o:p></o:p> consulting report.<o:p></o:p> * Calls Jake "Jack" and Daria "Darlene" -- when he finds that Daria is not "Darlene", he shrugs it off without comment <o:p></o:p> or apology.<o:p></o:p> * Finally calls Jake and Daria, "Jake and Daria Mogendavid".<o:p></o:p> * Arlo calls him a "whiny billionaire".<o:p></o:p> * States that he got to where he was today by "pure guts", facing "Bengal tigers, Himalayan snow squalls, strange kids calling me 'Daddy'!"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (A few notes: 1) The name is pronounced "Terry Berry Barlow" but the closed captioning has his name as "Terry Perry Barlow". 2) My wife states that Barlow might be loosely based on Richard Branson, the hot-air ballooning founder of Virgin Atlantic airways -- it is unknown if they have any other similarities, but Branson did write in the book "Losing My Virginia" a tale of hot-air ballooning danger. -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Barry, Ken: When Quinn finds out that “The Knight’s Tale” will be performed at the Medieval Fair dinner theater, Quinn twists it into a play by “this guy, Ken Barry”. “The Knight’s Tale” is a story in Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales” and she has misinterpreted “Canterbury” for “Ken Barry”.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Bauhaus: British rock band with its heyday between 1979 and 1983. Their most famous song was "Bela Lugosi's Dead". Bauhaus might have been the first goth band with its gloomy yet energetic song.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During Daria's dream, a poster of Bauhaus can be seen on Trent's wall. There is a high probability that Trent might be a fan of Bauhaus, but dreams have been known to vary from reality in the strangest ways -- in any event, Daria is familiar with the band if in name only. (404)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “B. C.”: American comic strip drawn by Johnny Hart (1931-present). The strip is the story of the wacky adventures of cavemen. At least as early as 1996 Hart began inserting blatantly Christian messages in his strip in an attempt to subtly evangelize.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The Lawndale Sun-Herald carries “B. C”. Jake asks how a caveman can celebrate Ash Wednesday in (308).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Beauty is Only Skin Deep”: Jane’s idea for an poster for the project in (201). It would involve attaching the skin of an actual student. Daria volunteers Quinn’s skin. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> beechwood aged: Process where chips of beechwood are used to carbonate beer in its fermentation stage. "Beechwood-Aged" is a familiar slogan of the Anheiser-Busch corporation and is usually applied to its signature beer, Budweiser.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Daria refuses a Lincoln Cheese-Flavored Log on the grounds that she doesn't care for artificial foodstuffs, Jane asks if the phrase "beechwood aged" means anything to her. (409)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Beef N Cake Triple Patty Burger: Brand of fast food hamburger, first seen in (503). Jake, in his search for a place that will serve "rare" meat finally finds the Beef N Cake Triple Patty Burger, which is served medium-rare "just like Jakey ordered!"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria wonders if Beef N Cake finally solved their refrigeration problems. Jake, fearing a "gastroenterological disorder" from eating improperly preared meat, abandons his burger in disgust. After Jake leaves the room, Daria calmly eats the burger, having fooled Jake. (503).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Before They Were Supermodels": Television special that Quinn plans to watch when the Fashion Club visit in (407). Quinn calls it a "Waif special", implying that the magazine sponsors or produces the show. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "The Bell Jar": Book by American author Sylvia Plath (1932-1963). A young girl serving an internship with a magazine undergoes a nervous breakdown. Dawn is seen reading this book in Mr. O'Neill's class after the aftermath of his failed "failure" experiment in (405).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Benjy: Camper at Camp Grizzly. First seen in (504). He is seen fighting with Bobby and Benjy over the greased watermelon for the right to give it to Quinn and her friends. Billy, Bobby, and Benjy undoubtedly serve as a Camp Grizzly version of "The Three Js".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Bennett, Diane: Economics teacher at Lawndale High School. Known for her positive good-nature and incomprehensible blackboard diagrams. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> first appearance in (105), named by Daria in classroom<o:p></o:p> husband’s name is Herbert, both husband and wife collect Fuzzy-Wuzzy Wee Bits<o:p></o:p> the appearance of the shop at the Mall of the Millenium sends her into<o:p></o:p> a joyous rapture<o:p></o:p> ?

When one "takes a hit" from the beer bong, one puts the short length of hose in one's mouth and is expected to drink rapidly when the beer is poured into the funnel end. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Kevin is told that he and Mack will form a search party in (402), Kevin asks "where's the funnel?" <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Better Days Retirement Home: Nursing home where Daria, Kevin, and Brittany read to the seniors in (302).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Bikini Island: Store at Mall of the Millenium.

A ruthless gang attempt to take over a <o:p></o:p> ranch by kidnapping an eight-year old child, but the child's grandfather, 'Big Jake" (John Wayne) decides to hunt down the<o:p></o:p> badmen himself.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jake, while lost in his thoughts of John Wayne after receiving a "Rio Bravo" commemorative coin, reminds his family that John Wayne made a movie called "Big Jake".

Daria refers to them collectively as “brainless and talentless” in her speech at the end of (309).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mrs. Blaine: Resident of the Better Days Retirement Home.

Her name is visible on the guest list held by the guard at the Crewe Neck gate.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Note: this is very likely to be the Tiffany of the Fashion Club. While MTV had a website, the names of the Fashion Club were listed in one of the entries on the Daria website. The names given for Stacy and Tiffany were Stacy Rowe and Tiffany Blum-Deckler, even though neither Stacy or Tiffany were ever explicitly identified by last name during the run of the series. The mention of Tiffany Blum-Deckler on the list gives credence to the theory that this is indeed Tiffany’s last name. For further information, see “Tiffany”. - JB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> B.O.B: “boy on bike”. Quinn has B.O.B. entered for a date in her planner - she didn’t quite catch his name. (108)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Booster Society: Unknown social group related to Lawndale High School. The group phones an annoyed Quinn while she is at home. (101)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Ed. Note: Most likely, the Booster Society raises money for Lawndale sports or academic activities - probably sports, given Ms. Li.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Bobby (I): A bellboy at Le Grand Hotel. First seen in (412). <o:p></o:p> * Mentions to Quinn that his uncle is manager of the hotel.

He is seen fighting with Bobby and Benjy over the greased watermelon for the right to give it to Quinn and her friends. Billy, Bobby, and Benjy undoubtedly serve as a Camp Grizzly version of "The Three Js".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Bobby Bighead”: One of two unnamed students attending Brittany’s party in 102. They make passes at Daria and Jane. Jane goes into the laundry room/make-out room with “Bobby”, and sets off the machine, causing soap bubbles to leak out from under the floor (the bubbles ruin Quinn’s shoes). When asked by Daria about what happened with Jane and “Bobby Bighead”, Jane states that “Bobby” thought her head was a lollipop.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Boleyn, Anne: Queen of England, born c. 1500, Queen of England from 1533 until her execution in 1536 for adultery. Jane has a few facts wrong about Anne Boleyn - even though Boleyn did have six fingers on her left hand, she probably did not have a big mole on her neck - most of the descriptions of Anne from that era are from Catholic enemies of the Protestants and opponents of Henry VIII. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jane says not to ask her about what was “going on” below Anne Boleyn’s neck. Most of the anti-Henry sources also claimed that Boleyn had three breasts. Historians believed it was claimed that Boleyn had three breasts in order to serve as “proof” that Boleyn was a witch who had charmed Henry away from his good Catholic first wife, Catherine of Aragon - witches were believed to have an extra breast from which to suckle their animal familiars. More than likely, Boleyn was a dark haired woman with striking good looks - save for the sixth finger on her left hand, of course.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Books by the Ton: “The country’s biggest bookstore”, according to the discount coupons from the Mall of the Millenium.

Jane has a poster of Boss Hog on her wall in (311) -- we do not know if she likes the band, or just the poster.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Boston: American progressive rock band, c.1975-present, with many incarnations. The group’s debut album, “Boston” was released in 1976 and at one time was the biggest-selling debut album of all time. (Whitney Houston’s “Whitney Houston” now holds the record). Trent and Jesse manage to recover three copies of “Boston” after their album booth at the Yard Sale is plundered after Upchuck forgets to keep an eye on the booth. (205)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “boy on bike”: See B. O. B.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Boys Are Guys: Band that Quinn likes. First mentioned by Joey in (407). All Three Js buy Quinn tickets for the "Boys Are Guys" concert, but since Quinn's parents are going to be out of town on Saturday, Quinn isn't able to go.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "boysencranstraw": Flavor of scented candle purchased by Jesse in (409). Jesse claims that "chicks like 'em", but Trent mentions that the candles stink and when the Fashion Club passes by, they "Ew!" and make their disgust known from at least fifteen feet away. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Undoubtedly a boysenberry, cranberry, strawberry mix. I haven't tried it. -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Boys-in-Suits": Another boy band that Quinn likes. (407)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Boys-from-the-Street": Yet another boy band that Quinn likes. (407)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Bradley: Student at Lawndale High School, mentioned in (411). Quinn is telling the Fashion Club a story about Bradley. Bradley asked Quinn for a date, but Quinn claimed she was too busy. Bradley then asked Quinn that if they wouldn't go on a real date, how about a "cyber date"?

Quinn admits that she has "wait-listed" Brent -- in other words, if something happens to Rex, Quinn's current date, then Brent will be allowed to take Quinn to Casino Night.

(109) General consensus at Lawndale High is that Brooke’s new Michael Jackson size nose was “cute, but not too cute”. Quinn says that Brooke’s old nose “had an extra bone in it” and it was not cute. Daria promises Brooke that her nose will grow back out.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Later in (109), Brooke has liposuction and collagen implanted into her lips, making her look “supercute”. Brooke asks Sandi if she can join the Fashion Club. However, Brooke has a nasal relapse and supposedly, the collagen from her lips all slid to the bottom lip.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 37 Comes to school in “crushed velour that can’t be uncrushed” in (302), according to Quinn and Sandi. Quinn implies that Brooke dresses like a tramp.<o:p></o:p> 38 Wears "stone-washed jeans" to a party, tries to pass them off as "retro" (408)<o:p></o:p> 39 Seen (briefly) standing next to Stacy in (503)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Brooks, Garth: American country music singer (1962-present).

He was also the attorney for the anti-evolution forces in the infamous "Scopes Monkey Trial" in 1925 which supported the banning of teaching evolutionary theory in Tennessee schools. Scopes, accused of teaching evolution, was defended by American trial lawyer and progressive Charles Darrow. Bryan won the case, but the exhausting effort of the trial probably contributed to Bryan's death five days after the trial.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In his famous "Cross of Gold" speech to the Democratic Convention in 1896, an issue was whether the free coinage of silver should be added to the current gold standard. If silver coinage were added, the amount of money in circulation would be added, the general value of currency would drop, and the debts that burdened American farmers would have been easier to pay. Bryan came out with a powerful speech criticising the gold standard, saying "You shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold!" It is probably one of the greatest American speeches.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During the "The House of Bad Grades" tale, one of the teens who comes to live in the house has his answer to a question about the meaning of Bryan's "cross of gold" expression malicious altered by the spirit of the girl entombed in the backyard.

(505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Caesar's Palace: American casino located in Las Vegas, built in 1966. At one time, Caesar's Palace represented all that was wrong with Las Vegas casinos -- find an interesting theme and beat it to death with doormen dressed as centurions, waitresses in short-skirted Roman garb, and every embarrassing variation in naming or theme imaginable. With the construction of new luxury casinos that strive for "class", Caesar's Palace is in the process of recreating itself, once again.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During O'Neill's discussion of "Julius Caesar" in (411), there are several topics very loosely related to the Shakespeare play. This is one of them.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Cafe Disaffecto”: Episode four of the series (104). Daria is compelled to help open a new coffee house in Lawndale.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cafe Lawndale: The replacement young-adult coffee house for the internet cafe alt.lawndale.com.

However, she can't figure out what they were thinking with "Cagney and Lacey".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Calco: Helen has a big Calco meeting in (209), which is why she can’t immediately meet Daria at the hospital for her rash. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> California Raisins: Animated figures created by the California Raisin industry in 1987. The California Raisins were clay figurines hand-animated by Will Vinton for a commercial for the California raisin industry. The concept became quite popular and a fad of the late 1980s, appearing in cartoons and on T-shirts. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Upchuck searches for “a complete 1985 California Raisins posable eraser set”, which must be a very rare collectible, indeed!<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "The Call of the Wild": Story written by Jack London, American author (1876-1916).

Daria decides to attend a reunion of her summer camp -- the alternate option being cleaning the garage.<o:p></o:p> * "Camp Fear" is the only episode of Daria to have real people drawn into the background as cartoon characters.<o:p></o:p> Daria fans Michelle Klein-Hass and Erin Mills won a Daria Website Trivia Contest sponsored by MTV and were<o:p></o:p> rewarded by being drawn into the cast as campers at Camp Grizzly. (Klein-Hass is a glasses-wearing heavy-set<o:p></o:p> figure with frizzy hair and white shorts standing to the left of Angela; Mills is a foreground figure, blond and with glasses,<o:p></o:p> who takes up much of the space of the right side of the screen in the shot where they both appear.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (It is quite lamentable that as a reward for their many labors on behalf of Daria fandom that the two were<o:p></o:p> drawn as background figures in one of the worst of the Season Five episodes. My hope is that when<o:p></o:p> the DVDs come out, they will be moved to a better episode like "I Loathe a Parade", or, at the very least,<o:p></o:p> "Fair Enough". -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> * Camp Grizzly is having its fifth year reunion -- this might be another indication of where Lawndale might be. We<o:p></o:p> know that the Morgendorffers moved from Highland to Lawndale. Highland -- the home of Beavis and Butt-head --<o:p></o:p> is believed to be in Texas. It was never explicitly stated that Highland is in Texas, but in Loaded Magazine (1997),<o:p></o:p> Mike Judge stated "I always think of Highland as West Texas or East New Mexico". If you agree with the theory<o:p></o:p> that the Morgendorffers ONLY lived in Highland before moving to Lawndale, then Lawndale and Highland must be<o:p></o:p> fairly close to each other, since if Lawndale was far removed from Highland, a reunion trip to Camp Grizzly would be<o:p></o:p> difficult. This limits Lawndale's location to somewhere close to Highland's.<o:p></o:p> * Episode takes place over at least seven days time. The Morgendorffers refer to the Camp Grizzly reunion as <o:p></o:p> happening "next weeked".<o:p></o:p> * Earl's wife is not named in the episode.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Camp Grizzly: In (504), Daria and Quinn visit Camp Grizzy for the fifth-year reunion of their attendance at the camp. It is not known if they attended the camp at any other times.<o:p></o:p> * Daria was "flatteringly" referred to as 'the weird kid" while at Camp Grizzly. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Daria states that her counselors made her hop "a mile" in a burlap sack. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Daria made to sing camp song, which she still remembers:<o:p></o:p> "We'll never forget you,<o:p></o:p> Dear old Camp Grizzly,<o:p></o:p> Your with us in sunshine,<o:p></o:p> Or weather more drizzly." (504)<o:p></o:p> * Quinn notices sheep on the drive to Camp Grizzly and states that there must not be an outlet store for "a hundred<o:p></o:p> miles" (504)<o:p></o:p> * Drive from Lawndale to Camp Grizzly takes at least two hours (504)<o:p></o:p> * Large arch reading "Welcome to Camp Grizzly" at open entrance (504)<o:p></o:p> * Attending Camp Grizzly five years before (504) : Daria, Quinn, Cindy, Tracy, Tatjiana, Amelia, Skip Stevens,<o:p></o:p> Alex Kroger (504)<o:p></o:p> * Campers called "Grizzlies" (504)<o:p></o:p> * Senior staff member at camp as of (504) is Mr. Potts<o:p></o:p> * According to Amelia, Daria boycotted the "end of summer" campfire by the lake. Daria corrects Amelia, saying that<o:p></o:p> she wasn't invited (504)<o:p></o:p> *According to Amelia, Daria rode off ahead of the others on her horse, abandoning them. Daria corrects Amelia,<o:p></o:p> saying that the horse ran off with her on it, and she had to have nine stiches. (504)<o:p></o:p> * One of the games played at Camp Grizzly -- a watermelon is greased and floats in the lake. The camper who<o:p></o:p> brings the watermelon back gets to eat it. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Winners would inevitably bring back greased watermelon to Quinn and her friends (504).<o:p></o:p> * Horses at present-day Camp Grizzly (504)<o:p></o:p> * Had arts and crafts and a square dance, at least when Daria and Quinn were going. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Had a color war as a yearly event, at least in the past -- Stevens brings up his "never losing" a color war in <o:p></o:p> seven years. (504)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Camp Puma: Rival camp to Camp Grizzly. First mentioned in (504). When Skip Stevens tries to pass out Grizzly T-shirts to Jane and Trent, Amelia angrily interjects that they don't go there. Skip Stevens then accuses Jane and Trent of being "pussycats" from Camp Puma trying to crash the reunion.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The Candy Shack: Candy store seen at the Lawndale Mall in (303). It looks like they have some trouble moving their Halloween merchandise.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cannibal Frag Fest: CD-ROM video game Daria hopes to own. She hopes to get it by exchanging the web page software her parents promised to buy her in exchange for working for the yearbook staff at Lawndale. (207)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “The Canterbury Tales”: Series of tales written by Geoffrey Chaucer, English author. (c. 1342-c.1400). Chaucer wrote the tales sometime between around 1387 and 1400. While on a pilgrimage to the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket, a group of travelers to the shrine amuse themselves by telling tales. The travelers are representative of almost every class in medieval society, but Chaucer never had the chance to finish the tales.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Lawndale High School decides to perform “The Knight’s Tale” at the Medieval Fair in (210). “The Knight’s Tale” tells of the love of the love of Arcite and Palomon for the sister of Queen Hippolyta, Emily. It is a complex tale of the motives behind love and whether or not there is such a thing as predestination. Quinn, Sandi and Brittany try out for the role of Emily, the hyperidealized version of medieval femininity, and Quinn wins the role. Upchuck and Kevin try out for the role of Palomon, a suitor to Emily, and Kevin wins.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Kevin fails to show, O’Neill enlists Jeffy to play the part of Palomon. Unfortunately, Jeffy didn’t quite hear correctly and with the help of the Three Js, assumes that he is the “Pardoner” from “The Pardoner’s Tale”, a completely different story in “The Canterbury Tales”, and the entire play is wrecked. Jeffy is reading from the Pardoner’s “sermon” about drunken youths and their sinful follies. (Quite apropos. - JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Captain Cutlass: Unknown figure of menace mentioned by Jake while under the influence of “glitterberries”. According to Jake, his men skin you alive and throw you to the sharks. (112)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Carlyle: Helen goes to the Carlyle in (209). “It’s briefs and bagels day at the Carlyle!”<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Caroline: One of Jane's housemates at Ashfield. First seen with Jett, Anais, and Paris in (414). She is not named explicitly.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Carrie”: Book written by Stephen King, American horror writer (1947-present). The book was writtne in 1973, and was made into a successful movie directed by Brian De Palma and starring Sissy Spacek in 1976. Carrie is an abused girl with telekinetic powers who unleashes her powers against her classmates when a bucket filled with pig’s blood is dumped on her during prom night.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Ms. Li informs Ms. Defoe’s art class in (304) that security will be tight at the school dance and that anyone planning to rig a bucket of pig’s blood in the rafters can just forget it.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Car Thingy: Video game seen at Mr. Fun’s in (207).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mr. Cartwright: Superintendent of Schools. His jurisdiction includes Lawndale High School, and it is implied that he also has authority over the rest of the county schools.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> He agrees to hear Daria's argument about Ultra Cola advertising at Lawndale High School in (501). He first implies that since Daria doesn't have many extracurricular activities in her academic record that she must be protesting as a way to put an extracurricular activity of some sort on her college education. He tells Daria that LHS is the only school in the country running a surplus and that he's thinking of having Leonard Lamm draw up cola advertising contracts for all of the county's schools.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria's rebuttal? If he thinks that cola advertising is such a wonderful thing, he should come to Lawndale High School and see for himself. He declines the offer, and it appears that Daria has reached a dead end. However, Superintendent Cartwright DOES show up just as Ms. Li goes on a caffeine-fueled rampage, and the contract with Ultra Cola is rewritten to ban advertising inside the school.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cashman’s Department Store: Upscale department store at a mall somewhere in Lawndale. It is at the far opposite end from the less favored (by Brittany, anyway) J. J. Jeeters.

"Cats" holds the records for longest running musical both in New York and London.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (505), Jake says that he could write songs for cats. And he could write songs for dogs, too.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Catch-22”: American book written about the insanity of war by Joseph Heller (1923-1999). The Catch-22 is where the books protagonist, Yossarian, tries to get out of his combat aircraft role in World War II by claiming that he is insane. However, since no sane man would fly in such a role, the fact that he would not want to fly proves that he is sane. Daria is reading this book in (203).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cece: One of the students helping Ms. Defoe paint a sports mural in (406). She and Gary get into a paint fight.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cedars of Lawndale: Hospital located in Lawndale. First seen in (209)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 43 Daria checks into the Cedars of Lawndale Hospital due to her skin condition in (209)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 44 In (304), Daria mentions that C of L has a Head Injury ward.<o:p></o:p> 45 Jake taken to C of L in (309).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Cemetary”: Babysitting game that Jane suggests to Daria while she is babysitting Tad and Tricia Gupty. The players have to remain perfectly still and quiet. The first one who moves loses. (108)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> C'est La Veal: French restaurant Bobby plans to take Quinn to in (412). Stacy mentions that it overlooks the lake and that it's "so romantic!" Sandi mentions a big cliff nearby, and mentions that it would be the perfect place to dump a body -- Sandi wants to plant in Quinn's head that Bobby is a stalker.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chambers, Erin: Daughter of Rita, Helen’s sister. Cousin of Daria and Quinn. (204)<o:p></o:p> 46 Implied that Erin is 21 years old in Season Two.

(204)<o:p></o:p> 49 Mother Rita tells Helen over the phone that Erin did not love Brian when she married him, but married him because Brian had given her herpes and she thought that no one else would want her (505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Charade": Movie directed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1963, starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. When Hepburn's husband dies after converting the family's assets to money -- which has gone missing -- Grant takes on several identities to find out where the money is...but what are his motives?<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> There is a broad scene in the movie where the dead man's "associates" pass by the corpse. One sneezes in the corpse's face, one holds a mirror up to the corpse's mouth, and one sticks a pin in the corpse, all in obvious attempts to determine if the figure in the casket is really dead. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During Daria's dream in (403), the Three Js subject Kevin's corpse to the same set of tests.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Charlie's Angels": American television crime drama running on ABC television from 1976 to 1981. Beautiful women serve as detectives, answering only to a mysterious man named "Charlie".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During Daria's dream in (404), the Fashion Club serve as a group exactly like Charlie's Angels -- their hair and clothes reflect fashions from the shows heyday in the late 1970s. Charlie would speak to his Angels through an office intercom, and Upchuck's voice can be heard through the intercom. Tiffany shows up with a poster and asks the other three if any of them would be leaving the group to go into movies so that she can be "the new Angel". Farrah Fawcett-Majors was the most popular of the original three-person Charlie's Angels, became famous from a pin-up poster exactly like the one Tiffany holds, and left the series after the first year to begin a (failed) movie career. (Cheryl Ladd replaced Farrah Fawcett-Majors as the blonde angel).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> As "Upchuck's Angels" appear on the scene, a stylized silhouette logo appears which mimics the one from the show.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chase: Last name of school nurse at Lawndale High School.

No one’s paying attention to you, anyway!

A professor sends a collection stories overseas to his family; the book swings between imaginary tales by the professor of the mysterious island known as the Antipodes and the professor’s own philosophical struggles.

(305)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Charlie Brown: Comic strip character created by American artist Charles Schulz (1922-2000). Charlie Brown was one of the main characters of “Peanuts”, a strip about young elementary school children with adult concerns which debuted in 1950. Charlie Brown was the neurotic of the strip, with a knack for failure and self-defeating statements. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Beginning with 1965’s “A Charlie Brown Christmas”, several prime-time cartoons came to American television screens. Among the many titles were “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown”, “It’s the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown”, and the unfortunate, “It’s Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown” (1984). <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jane refers to this method of titling Charlie Brown cartoon specials in her comment when Bing and the Spatula Man show up at Lawndale High School, commenting, “It’s Lame Deejays, Charlie Brown!” (308)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chechnya: Region bordering the south-western portion of Russia, formerly part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. When the USSR collapsed in 1991, the Chechens declared their independence, but Russia continued to claim that Chechnya was part of Russia. Since then, the Russian-Chechen war has claimed over 150,000 lives.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jodie gives a report on Chechnya in (501). Unfortunately, she is unable to show where Chechnya is on the map in Mr. DeMartino's office, which DeMartino claims dates back to V-E Day. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The Cheese Guy: Store at the same mall where Daria works in (306). It might sell cheese.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chenille Gorp: Manufacture of a special "Titanic" edition purse that Quinn gives to Sandi in (402).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chicago Bulls: National Basketball Association team, founded in 1966. American basketball star player Michael Jordan played there. Chicago won six NBA championships during the 1990s while Jordan was on the team. Mack’s father attended a Bulls playoff game while Mack was 12, which resulted in Mack’s middle name getting changed from “James” to “Jordan”. (113)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> the "Chicken Soup" books: Series of books edited by motivational speakers Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen. Canfield and Hansen often used stories to punctuate their speechs and the speakers were asked to collect those motivational nuggets in a book. The result was the first book, "Chicken Soup for the Soul" in 1993. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Since the spectacular success of the first book, a series of "Chicken Soup" books were released: "Chicken Soup for the Kid's Soul", "Chicken Soup for the Single Parent", etc. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Quinn in (411) states that she's reading a book about people's real-life experiences with angels, Daria states that she's familiar with the book: "Chicken Soup for the Stupid".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Chim-Chim Cheree": Song written by Richard and Robert Sherman. The song won an Oscar for Best Original Song in 1965 from the movie Mary Poppins. The Sherman brothers also won an Oscar for Best Musical Score for the same movie.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The lyrics go:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Chim-Chiminee,<o:p></o:p> Chim-Chiminee,<o:p></o:p> Chim chim cher-ee!<o:p></o:p> A sweep is as lucky <o:p></o:p> As lucky can be<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chim-Chiminee<o:p></o:p> Chim-Chiminee<o:p></o:p> Chim chim cher-oo!<o:p></o:p> Good luck will rub off when<o:p></o:p> I shake 'ands with you!"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The song is sung by Bert the chimney sweep, played by Dick Van Dyke. The song refers to the superstition that it was lucky to shake hands with chimney sweeps.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Daria replies "It's a small world after all" to Jane's tale of the Jane-Cam (and it's lack of Internet hits), Jane answers, "Chim-chiminee, chim-chiminee", countering Daria's use of a Disney song with lines from another Disney song in reply. (408)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "CHiPs": American NBC police drama from 1977 to 1983. A Calfornian cop, John, partners with a Latino cop, Ponch, as motorcycle cops belonging to the California Highway Patrol.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Kevin is about to "pop a wheelie", i.e. shift his weight while on his moped so the front wheel comes off the pavement while remaining in control of the moped, he believes he can do it because he saw Ponch do something similar on CHiPs. (403)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chiquito: Parrot owned by Penny Lane. First seen in (308). According to Penny, Chiquito is very possessive.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Chloris: One of the canaries at the “Our Furry and Scaly Friends” pet store. (306)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Christmas: 1) Traditional Christian holiday, celebrated on December 25th. The holiday celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ. Gifts are traditionally exchanged at Christmas.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 2) Living embodiment of Christmas. Christmas is a surly blond young man with a red short-sleeved shirt and who wears the traditional red hat trimmed with white fur associated with Santa Claus. He plays guitar in a band he hopes to form with Halloween and Guy Fawkes Day in Lawndale. (303)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Christmas prefers to be called “X”, short for “Xmas”. “Xmas” is an abbreviated sometimes used for “Christmas”. Christmas is unhappy about Holiday Island because he says he’s forced to spread good will and cheer 24 hours a day.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 50 Described as a “burnout” by The St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun.<o:p></o:p> 51 Likes sugar-coated cookies and gingerbread cottages.<o:p></o:p> 52 Calls Halloween and Guy Fawkes “freeloaders” in inclusive sense.<o:p></o:p> 53 Bickers with Halloween and Guy Fawkes.<o:p></o:p> 54 According to Cupid, Christmas and Halloween are the two coolest kids at Holiday High School.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “A Christmas Carol”: Christmas story written by Charles Dickens, British writer (1812-70). Miser Ebeneezer Scrooge is visited by three ghosts the night before Christmas and learns to change his ways. Daria ends (303) with “God bless us, everyone one!”, a quote from Tiny Tim in “A Christmas Carol” which also ends the story.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> chutney shrimp: Dish involving chutney, curry paste, shrimp, and rice. Jake says he’s thinking about trying out making chutney shrimp in (308).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cindy: One of Quinn's friends at Camp Grizzly. First seen in (504). She formed a three person unit with Tracy and Tatijiana<o:p></o:p> when she first attended Camp Grizzly. Quinn's relationship with Tracy, Cindy, and Tatijiana parallels her relationship with the Fashion Club, and the similarities are obvious.<o:p></o:p> * Appears to sound and behave like Sandi (504)<o:p></o:p> * Quinn notices that Cindy is wearing a backpack like hers and that Cindy has nice hair. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Never participated in Camp Grizzy Hikes, along with the rest of her friends (including Quinn) (504)<o:p></o:p> * Sunned self at lakeside in swimsuits when campers chased the greased watermelon. (504)<o:p></o:p> * Tells Skip "We don't do greasy". (504)<o:p></o:p> * Refers to Skip Stevens as a "geek" (504) ('Geek' is one of Sandi's favorite expressions -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> * Refuses to go out in a boat because it would mean she'd have to wear one of those "orange-colored things" (504)<o:p></o:p> * Had a date with Alex Kroger the night of the square dance, but he never showed up because Quinn skipped the<o:p></o:p> dance with Kroger and they both went to the lakeside. Cindy waited the entire night, and when she finds<o:p></o:p> out what happened from Quinn five years later, she withdraws the offer to take Quinn home from Camp Grizzly and leads Tracy and Tatjiana in leaving the table where Quinn is sitting. (504)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cinplex: Lawndale movie theatre, seen along Lawndale Homecoming parade route in (406). The facade of Cinplex is a huge movie marquee sign. A street divides Cinplex from Home Furbishing, which is to the right if one is facing the theatre. "MMM Sub" is to the left of Cinplex.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> * The movies playing at Cinplex on the day of the Lawndale Homecoming parade are "Wacky Summer", "Too Much Ado" and "Weepy Mr. B 3". (406).<o:p></o:p> * Movies playing in (505): "Weepy Mr. B 4", "Us Heroes Never Die!" and "I Saw You This Summer" (505)<o:p></o:p> * Daria and Jane talk about the movie they just saw in (505), showing among other things, that alien intelligence is no match for our "can-do spunk" and that 20-year old astrophysicists are looking for middle-aged street cops to fall in love with.<o:p></o:p> * Jane states that Daria and Jane could have been watching a "comedy from Croatia" instead of "It Came From Planet Stupid". (505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> A sign outside of the Cineplex reads "air conditioned", perhaps giving another clue to Lawndale's location.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Claude: Talent scout for Amazon Models, appears in (106). As catty and insincere as his partner, Ramonica. Blonde and thin.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Claudia: Ex-wife of Wind Lane, first mentioned by Penny Lane in (308). When Penny sees Wind, she states “Claudia threw you out” and Wind mentions that that was several years earlier. Furthermore, Wind is paying two alimony payments a month.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cliff (or Clint): Person who might be a student at LHS. Quinn states that she is “in love” with either Cliff or Clint. (109)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Clint: See Cliff. Helen asks Quinn if she is talking to “that Clint person again”. (110)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Clinton, Grant: Father of Ted Dewitt-Clinton. First seen in (207). <o:p></o:p> 55 Objects to both alcohol AND coffee.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Close to You": Song written by American musician Burt Bacharach (1928-present). It was originally written for the debut album of American singer Dionne Warwick in 1964. It was popularized by the American duo The Carpenters in 1970. It was originally written for Herb Alpert, but Alpert wanted nothing to do with lines like:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "On the day that you were born<o:p></o:p> The angels got together<o:p></o:p> and decided to create a dream come true<o:p></o:p> So they sprinked moondust in your hair<o:p></o:p> and starlight in your eyes of blue."<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Trent announces at Club Glamour in (414) that he's going to perform a song for Daria and Jane, Jane says (sarcastically (?)), "Oh please, make it 'Close to You!'" <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Clovis: One of the canaries at the “Our Furry and Scaly Friends” pet store. (306)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Club Glamour: Mystik Spiral hold a gig here in (414). It is a seedy dump. Our first sight of Club Glamor is the sight of a man being ejected from the premises and thrown into the street.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cluster Burger: Burger place Jane and Daria plan to go to with Trent and the band in (209).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Coffee Cafe: Lawndale business which obstensibly sells coffee. Halloween gets a job there in (303). Christmas and Guy Fawkes Day are mad at her because she wouldn’t share her paycheck.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (So, how did Halloween fill out her job application at Coffee Cafe, much less get a paycheck? Perhaps Halloween, like Cupid, has some sort of mind-altering ability. - JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The Coffee Snob: Coffee store seen on the Lawndale Homecoming parade route in (406). If one is facing the store, 24 Hour Photo is to the left of it, and Spa isto the right of it.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> colon: Unit of Costa Rican currency. Pronounced like "cologne". Penny mentions that she ran out of colones in (308).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> color war: Popular camp activity where campers break up into color-based teams and compete in a series of events. The winning color generally earns some sort of prize.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (504), Skip Stevens tells the "alumni" of Camp Grizzly that he attended Camp Grizzly for seven years and "never lost a color war".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “College Bored”: Episode three of the series. (103) Daria and Jane visit Jake and Helen’s alma mater.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Columbo": Crime drama which ran on NBC intermittently between 1971 and 1998. Peter Falk played Lieutenant Columbo, a nebbishy detective in a beaten-up raincoat who interrogation of suspects seemed more like mindless prattling about his wife and about unimportant trivia associated with the case. Columbo would convince the suspects that they were smarter than he was, which led them to make statements that proved to be their undoing.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In a scene from (404), Daria pulls up to the Morgendorffer house in a beat up car not unlike Columbo's.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Come as You Are”: Song by Nirvana, off Nevermind album. Jane mentions that “her brother” has been practicing the opening to this song. (102)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Conroy, Buck: Publisher of “Brutal Mercenary” magazine and most likely, retired general. It is unknown if Buck is Army or Marine Corps, or what rank of general (brigadier, major, lieutenant) he claims to be.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Cops”: Reality series running on FOX TV in America since 1989. Overweight real cops chase real life stupid criminals, and the results are caught on camera. Blamed for racist undertones as many of the criminals are minorities. Brittany wonders if the real-life arrival of police to break up her party in (102) means that they’re on TV.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Corey: Obnoxious follower of Quinn seen in Assembly. Has creepy high pitched laugh. (101). Has date with Quinn in (203), but Quinn is stuck writing an essay. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> He finally gets to take Quinn to a dance in (304), but is chased away by the Three Js who are looking for a fight after Quinn off-handedly comments that Robert and Kevin must like Brittany a lot because they’re fighting over her.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> * Quinn and Corey have class with Mr. DeMartino (411)<o:p></o:p> * Corey at Brittany Taylor's party (not seen) (411)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Coriander My Love”: Film shown at the “Food in Film Festival” in (206). A coriander is a parsley-like herb.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> cornea gumbo: The result of a poorly designed web page -- visual clutter and distraction. Nora states in her presentation to Buzzdome.com that Buzzdome.com's new protocols will mean bye-bye to cornea gumbo. (502)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Courtney: Daughter of Summer Lane. First mentioned in (308). It is not known if “Lane” is Courtney’s last name. Two children appear at the Lane household in (308) who are Summer’s kids and are likely Adrian and Courtney.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cowardly Lion: Character in "The Wizard of Oz" (q. v.) Bert Lahr played the Cowardly Lion in the 1939 movie and sang a song called "If I Only Had the Nerve":<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Life is sad, believe me missy,<o:p></o:p> When you're born to be a sissy<o:p></o:p> Without the vim and verve<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> But I could change my habits<o:p></o:p> Nevermore be scared of rabbits<o:p></o:p> If I only had the nerve"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mr. O'Neill refers to the Cowardly Lion's song while teaching "The Red Badge of Courage" in (412).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Craznee, Jerry : Production coordinator of the Fashionvision Humanitarian Awards. His name is seen on the closing credits of the awards in (505). (It is unknown if these are the names of real people or not -- the closing credits screen crawl is suspiciously similar to the one used at the end of "Daria" episodes, but these names are not normally associated with anyone working at MTV.-- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Crewe Neck: Private community in Lawndale where Brittany Taylor lives. (102) There is a sign near the gate reading “Private and Proud”. There is a mechanical drop gate as well as a 24-hour guard on duty to identify visitors.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cruise, Tom: American actor, 1962-present. Heartthrob who appeared in such films as “All the Right Moves”, “Rain Man”, and “Jerry McGwire”. Daria informs the Gupty children that Mr. Cruise is 5 feet 4 inches tall. (108)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cumberland High: School attended by Brad and Brett Ruttheimer. Brett characterizes Cumberland High as “screwed up” during his brief conversation with Daria and Jane. (304)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cupid: 1) The ancient Roman god of love, the son of Venus and Mars. He is generally portrayed as a winged cherub carrying a bow and a quiver of arrows. A victim of Cupid’s arrow will fall in love with someone nearby.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 2) More than likely, the living embodiment of St. Valentine’s Day. Cupid is a tall, chubby adolescent with a slow drawl. He is winged, and wears only a robe and a quivers of arrows, not unlike the typical presentation of Cupid. (A pair of red tennis shoes and a wrist watch are the only modern touches.) He is first seen in (303), accompanying The St. Patrick’s Day Leprechaun on his “secret mission” to return Halloween, Christmas, and Guy Fawkes Day back to Holiday Island.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cupid appears to possess a wide range of abnormal abilities:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 56 Hypnotism: He grasps Daria’s hand and tells her to relax. While using this ability, his voice becomes not unlike that of sensual soul singer Barry White. Romantic music can be audibly heard from no visible source. He tells Daria that the next word out of her mouth will be the name of Daria’s “special someone” that Daria likes. Cupid describes it as a “cool trick”. It is unknown if this power has other applications.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> He can also use the voice and create the music without hypnotizing a target.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 57 Flight: Cupid’s wings actually lift him off the ground. He is only seen hovering about twenty feet from the ground, at the Morgendorffers.<o:p></o:p> 58 Love gun: Cupid does not use his quiver of arrows in (303). Instead, he carries what looks like a modified taser or stun gun with two prongs. He carries the gun in the quiver. The “gun” fires twin beans of cartoonish red hearts and can hit multiple targets. Cupid uses the device on Helen and Jake to distract them from hearing Daria’s explanation of her encounter with the holidays in (303). When targets are struck, it glows briefly with energy and has a shimmering X-ray effect allowing one to see the targets’ skeletons. The targeted individuals immediately desire each other and become temporarily oblivious to the presence of others. Helen and Jake start kissing, but we do not know if the gun amplies a natural inclination or if it automatically causes targets to kiss and embrace.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> It is also not known how long the effect lasts. It is implied that the effect lasts for several days, minimum, as Cupid implies the effect will wear off later in the episode. Helen and Jake seem to be oblivious to the presence of cobwebs and living holidays in their home while under the influence, undoubtedly the romantic fog is quite powerful at first and diminishes slowly over time.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 59 Strength: Is able to easily support the weight of The Saint Patrick’s Day Leprechaun while flying. It is not known if The Leprechaun is abnormally light. However, Cupid complains that The Leprechaun is “getting heavy” after a few moments.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Curious George: Character from children’s books by German writers and illustratiors H. A. (Hans Augusto) Rey (1898-1977) and Margarete Rey (1906-96). The stories are about a monkey called Curious George and his many adventures. Curious George’s caretaker is The Man in the Yellow Hat. Kevin confuses Charles Darwin with The Man in the Yellow Hat in (302).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Curtis: Young camper at the "Okay to Cry" Corral. First seen in (414). Curtis asks O'Neill if the campers can go outside and play instead of doing activities indoors all day.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cuties: Store at the Lawndale Mall. Sandi is seen carrying a "Cuties" back in (410)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Undoubtedly pronounced, kyoo-tees. -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Dada: “Anti-art” movement of the early 20th century. The purpose of Dada was to challenge conventional thinking in art, almost to the point of nonsense. Jane states that the mouse Daria trains in (107) should choose neither path, like Dada.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Dahmer, Jeffrey: American mass murderer (1960-94). Killed at least fifteen young homosexual black men before being caught by authorities in 1991. Was killed in prison. Brad Ruttheimer mentions that he had been reading a book about Jeffrey Dahmer in (304)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Dallas Cowboys: American National Football League team. Doug Thompson, the Three Js, and Mr. O'Neill (uneasily) talk about the Dallas Cowboys "kicking butt" in the game last Sunday in (409)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Damon, Matt: American actor (1970-present) Among his many films are "Chasing Amy", "Good Will Hunting" and "The Bourne Identity". <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Stacy points out to Tiffany during a post-Sandi Fashion Club meeting that one of the girls in the magazine went out with Matt Damon. Tiffany asks Stacy "Do you think I'd look good with Matt Damon?" (503)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> dancing baloney: A name given to web pages full of animated images and other "bell and whistle" type applications which detract from the overall purpose of the page. In (502), Nora says that the adaptation of new protocols at Buzzdome.com will mean an end to "dancing baloney".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Danielson, Brian: Married Erin Chambers, Daria’s cousin, in (204). Tends to make joking and somewhat sexist remarks.<o:p></o:p> 60 Is either Southern or went to school in the South as all of the “escorts”<o:p></o:p> (groomsmen) have Southern accents, except for Lerman. (204)<o:p></o:p> 61 Works for the government, in intelligence, according to Erin. (204)<o:p></o:p> 62 Rita calls Brian a “prehistoric imbecile”. (204)<o:p></o:p> 63 Mother Rita tells Helen over the phone that Erin did not love Brian when she married him, but married him because Brian had given her herpes and she thought that no one else would want her (505)<o:p></o:p> 64 Quinn considers him short (505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Danny: Hapless schlub who is target of Quinn’s sales techniques in (104). Quinn tries to sell Danny a phonecard to raise money for a new coffeehouse, and convinces Danny to roleplay a call to Quinn after some flattery. Quinn invites Danny over for the weekend, and Danny agrees, but Quinn takes Danny’s answer as a no due to hypothetical poor phone service. She states that she will ask Pete over instead, leaving Danny to wonder who Pete is.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daphne: Bridesmaid at Erin’s wedding. Is surprised that Daria is not on the Pep Squad - “to be honest with you, Daphne, I just can’t find the time” (204)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Darcy: What Robert persists in calling Daria. (207)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Dar: What Val starts calling Daria in (305).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Daria!”: Thirty-third episode of the series (307). The only “musical” episode of the series. A severe rainstorm threatens Lawndale.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 63 The only episode of the series to have a slightly different opening trailer, aside<o:p></o:p> from the movie-length episodes - the visuals are the same, but the vocal track from Splendora’s “You’re Standing on My Neck” is backed with piano and other instruments. <o:p></o:p> 64 Takes place during “Pep Rally Day” at LHS.<o:p></o:p> 65 Another clue to Lawndale’s location, in that a hurricane is threatening Lawndale, and hurricanes are generally limited to the Eastern and Gulf coasts of the United States.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Daria Dance Party”: Thirtieth episode of the series (304). Quinn volunteers to host a dance at Lawndale High.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 66 Dance takes place on Saturday - Sandi says her party is being held on Saturday, which is the same night as the dance.<o:p></o:p> 67 Gap between time Jane accepts assignment and actual dance is at least three days - while meeting with Mr. O’Neill, Jane mentions that she hasn’t slept for two days and falls asleep at the desk.<o:p></o:p> 68 Another clue to Lawndale’s possible location, as it begins to snow at the end of (304) - earlier in (304) it was mentioned that the Denver Broncos were also snowed in at their airport in Denver. Combine that with Barch’s reference about all that time her husband spent watching the Broncos, and....<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “The Daria Hunter”: Fifteenth episode of the series (202). Daria and her class go on a field trip to a paintball range.<o:p></o:p> 69 Faculty attending trip: O’Neill, DeMartin, Barch, Li<o:p></o:p> 70 Students attending trip: Daria, Jane, Dawn, Jodie, Mack, Kevin, Brittany, Shaggy, The Fashion Club, The Three Js.<o:p></o:p> 71 Team Blue: DeMartino, Jake, Quinn, Stacy,Tiffany, Daria<o:p></o:p> 72 Team Red: O’Neill, Barch, Brittany, Jane, Helen, Sandi<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Das Kapital": Work by German economist and philosopher Karl Marx (1818-83).

In the movie “Sunset Boulevard” (1950), deranged silent movie star Norma Desmond (Gloria Swanson) says “All right Mr. DeMille, I’m ready for my close-up”. Daria says a similar line in (111).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “The Depths of Shallowness: A True Story”: The final title of Daria and Jane’s film project about Quinn.

The locker design is the same except that the lockers are blue and not yellow, and murals of ocean waves have been added to the formerly bare walls.<o:p></o:p> 81 Note that Trent says that Christmas and Guy Fawkes Day are “pissed off” because Halloween got a job at Coffee Cafe and didn’t want to share her paycheck -- however, it seems that Christmas is the one getting pummeled by the other two!<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Deuce Hardware: Hardware store somewhere in Lawndale. They make keys, they sell paint. Mack and Kevin walk by the store in (401).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Deuce Hardware" is undoubtedly inspired by "Ace Hardware", a chain hardware store in the United States.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Deuce Hardware is close to the pizza place where Daria, Jane, and other cast members hang out. The list of stores, viewing left to right facing, is as follows:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> unnamed Florist shop (414)<o:p></o:p> pizza place<o:p></o:p> Lackluster Video (401)<o:p></o:p> Deuce Hardware (401)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> As Daria and Tom walk away from the Pizza Place, the order of these stores is reconfirmed in (414). <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Devon: Handsome young fellow, probably famous.

(207)<o:p></o:p> 95 Described by Daria as “honest, ethical and smart”. (207)<o:p></o:p> 96 Has strong grip - has been doing isometric exercises since age ten (207)<o:p></o:p> 97 Taught self swordplay from century manuscript.

It is unknown whether such “wormholes” exist.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Cupid refers to Holiday Island as being accessible through a “dimensional wormhole” in (303). More than likely, he is implying that Holiday Island exists on a separate plane of reality not accessible in this universe only accessed through a special portal. If not, then Holiday Island exists somewhere in the natural universe, but undoubtedly several thousand light years away from Earth.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <h1>Dinesen, Isak: Born Karen Blixen (1885-1962). Also wrote under other pseudonyms. Writer of supernatural and erotic works based in aristocratic settings, a more “aesthetic” writer.

The narrator relates his travels through hell, purgatory, and heaven. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When David Sorenson arrives at the Morgendorffers to meet Quinn, Daria answers the door. When David asks if he is speaking to Quinn, Daria answers "I don't know. Is this the ninth circle of hell?" (In the first section of the "Divine Comedy" -- "the Inferno" -- it is revealed that hell is divided into layers -- the lower the layer, the greater the punishment. The ninth circle is the lowest layer, where Satan is trapped.) David immediately recognizes the reference. (414)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> D. M. C. : Name of a character in Trent's telling of the "Metal Mouth" legend in (410). The character wears a black track suit, high-top fade, large gold medallion, and looks suspiciously like a 1980s version of Mack.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> D. M. C. undoubtedly derives his name from the 1980s hip hop group "Run-D.M.C." "D. M. C." stands for Darryl McDaniels, a member of the three-man group. "Run" is Joseph Simmons and the third member of the group is the late Jason Mizell (Jam Master Jay).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Doctor Faustus": Play written by English playwright and poet Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593). The play is based on an earlier German work and the earliest editions with Marlowe's name are from 1604. A scholar sells his soul to the Devil in exchange for unearly power, but comes to fear the time of reckoning when payment is due.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mr. O'Neill is teaching "Doctor Faustus" in (501), most likely from the Marlowe version, assigning Scenes 1 through 5 for further reading.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Do Me A Donut: Donut store frequented by Daria and Jane in (206).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Donna: Woman on unknown show Quinn watches at the beginning of (411).

The large group wished to relocate in California by wagon train. The 87 emigrants were comprised primarily of the Donner and Reed families, and their hired hands. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> To survive while trapped in the Sierras, members of the party resorted to cannibalism. Only 46 of the 87 survived, and many of the survivors took part in the eating of corpses.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Ms. Li assures Daria and Jane that their mountain excursion will not be problematic, Daria replies, "Thank you, Principal Donner." (402)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Don’t Call Him a Cowboy”: Country music song written by Conway Twitty (q. v.), American country music singer (1933-93). The song was written in the mid 1980s and reached Number 1 on the charts. There is a line in the song that says “don’t call him a cowboy/unless you’ve seen him ride/ Cause a Stetson hat and those fancy boots/don’t tell you what’s inside”. Twitty is making sport of “drugstore cowboys”, men who might not really be as rugged as the way they’re dressed.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria quotes these lines when the patrons of Mad Dawg’s doubt Daria and Quinn’s country credentials in (310). <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Don’t Drink or Take Drugs”: Brittany’s entry in the poster college in (201). Its message is “don’t drink or take drugs”.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Don’t Join a Gang”: Brittany’s second entry in the poster contest in (201). Its message is “don’t join a gang”. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Doo Dad Shop, The: Store at the Mall of the Millenium (105). Down Under is located to its left, facing. Seller of items like magnets and other things termed as “useless junk” by Daria. Apparently has its own theme song, which is sung to Daria by staff when she becomes their 10,000th customer.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jake gets a bill for $50 from the "Doo Dad Store" in (405).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Dot Com Dot Com Convention: Convention Jake attended the Valentine's Day before the events in (504). While cleaning the garage together -- and complaining that Helen is always working on weekends and never has time for him -- he finds a black negligee in one of the boxes and angry asks Helen what kind of work the negligee was for. Helen responds that she bought the negligee for Valentine's Day, but Jake was attending the Dot Com Dot Com convention and had to cancel.

I doubt, however, that this is the Drew of whom Val is speaking. - JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Drugs 'N' Stuff: Drug/convenience store. Jake asks Daria to go to Drugs 'N' Stuff in (406) to pick up some toilet paper. To the left of Drugs 'N' Stuff is an unnamed bookstore. There is apparently a second pharmacy along the Lawndale Homecoming parade route near Drugs 'N' Stuff, as Jane expected Tom to meet her at Drugs 'N' Stuff, but Jane only told Tom to meet her at the pharmacy, so he assumed it was the other one.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jake offers Daria 20 bucks if she can get to Drugs 'N' Stuff and back with the toilet paper in 15 minutes. Daria takes the bribe.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Duke, Tiffany”: Phony name given by the guard at Crewe Neck as a challenge when Jane identifies herself as “Tiffany”.

(102)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Duty: Product sold at Payday in (409).

The Morgendorffer insurance adjustor mentions it in (412), and states that the Dutchman Inn would be within the per-diem of the relocation policy, since the Morgendorffers will have to be out of their house for two weeks.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Quinn is aghast.

Jane and Trent stop on the way back home in (504). The man is selling cookies for $2, which leads to a discussion with Trent on the value of thecookies. Trent and the man agree that the important thing is not the price of the cookies, but how much of yourself you put into them. This leads Trent to think that listening to Earl's wisdom will give him insight as to why Mystik Spiral is at each other's throats.<o:p></o:p> * Earl's wife makes cheese sandwiches and doesn't take the cellophane off the cheese (504)<o:p></o:p> * Neither Earl nor his wife thaw out the bread when make cheese sandwiches (504)<o:p></o:p> * Earl and his wife enlist Trent's help in a blindfolded taste test of their potato chips. They ask Trent if he can figure<o:p></o:p> out the flavor, but he gives up. Jane also detects no flavor. Earl and his wife are happy that they've reached<o:p></o:p> their goal in creating a flavorless potato chip that doesn't add its own taste to any dip. "It's like having a piece<o:p></o:p> of paper in your mouth!" (504)<o:p></o:p> * Created "home-bottled water" from the tap in their rusty kitchen sink (504)<o:p></o:p> * Earl and his wife's stupidity serve as the inspiration for a new song by Trent, resparking his fire for Mystik Spiral.

Quinn is unable to accept the<o:p></o:p> Fashion Club presidency, not wanting to injure Sandi's feelings (503)<o:p></o:p> Quinn says there's "no way" there could be a Fashion Club without her and Sandi (503)<o:p></o:p> Quinn names Tiffany president of Fashion Club and Stacy vice-president after she resigns her membership (503)<o:p></o:p> Departure speech from Quinn to Tiffany and Stacy: "You're going to carry on the Fashion Club mission! You'll<o:p></o:p> stop the vertically-challenged from wearing really fat stripes, point out icky fibers to icky fiber wearers, and<o:p></o:p> fight frosted shadows wherever you go. Unless it's at a costume party. You'll hold yourselves up to the highest<o:p></o:p> standards possible. No ankle boot too pointy, no chartreuse too chartreuse-y, and no mock turtleneck too<o:p></o:p> mocky. And finally...you will never, every date anyone less attractive than you are -- although equally <o:p></o:p> attractive is okay!" (503)<o:p></o:p> Stacy and Tiffany conclude that there aren't any girls at Lawndale who could meet the Fashion Club's standards (503)<o:p></o:p> Attempt to spark Fashion Club by inviting the Three Js as prospective members (503)<o:p></o:p> Stacy angrily leaves the Fashion Club claiming that she was forced to do all the work keeping the club together while trying her best, while all Tiffany did was sit and talk about herself (she imitates Tiffany's slow drawl to Tiffany's face for emphasis. When Tiffany says she's leaving the Fashion Club too, Stacy shrieks in frustration. (503)<o:p></o:p> Configuration of Fashion Club returns to normal when Sandi returns to pre-fracture weight (503)<o:p></o:p> Agreed by Fashion Club that "applicants can't have stubby fingertips or nails shorter than one-quarter of an inch" (503)<o:p></o:p> Sandi states that Fashion Club protocol only allows the president to switch topics when it comes to membership<o:p></o:p> requirements (503)<o:p></o:p> Sandi attempts to add a rule that "no one with a low eyelash count should be admitted -- no exceptions". Quinn<o:p></o:p> then brings up that thickeners could simply be used to help eyelash-deficient applicants appear to have an<o:p></o:p> more "normal" eyelash count. Sandi accuses Quinn of proposing "artifice" but Stacy and Tiffany agree with<o:p></o:p> Quinn, and Sandi backs down. Sandi then states that the "eyelash-deficient" must wear mascara at all times. <o:p></o:p> (503)<o:p></o:p> After watching the Fashionvision Humanitarian Awards, the Fashion Club decides to take part in a charity project.<o:p></o:p> They conclude they will donate a mirror to the girls' bathroom, since the current mirror "adds two pounds"<o:p></o:p> (505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fashion Club<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> While deciding how to pay for the new mirror, Quinn decides that the FC should do what they do best -- "tell people<o:p></o:p> what's wrong with their outfits". Tiffany says, "But, we do that all day for free. That's why everyone likes us."(505)<o:p></o:p> Quinn suggests that the Fashion Club start a newsletter for "fashion victims". The newsletter would give general <o:p></o:p> advice, predict fashion trends, and tell people what they should and shouldn't buy. (505)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fashionvision Humanitarian Awards: Show seen by the Fashion Club in (505). The program has pledged to donate a tenth of a cent to charity for everyone viewing.

When Sandi gains weight after breaking a leg, could the weight <o:p></o:p> gain spell the end of the Fashion Club -- and Sandi's self-esteem?<o:p></o:p> * Episode takes place over an extended time, since Quinn says that the doctor tells Sandi that she has to be in a cast<o:p></o:p> "for at least a month", and states that she has missed Sandi "these past few weeks". The episode covers the<o:p></o:p> period of time from the time Sandi breaks her leg to the time where Sandi loses the weight and has the cast<o:p></o:p> off. <o:p></o:p> * A scene in DeMartino's classroom might obliquely refer to the "Rocky Horror Picture Show". Daria has bet that<o:p></o:p> DeMartino will use the word "morons" to refer to his students; Jane bets that the word will be "imbeciles".<o:p></o:p> The scene goes:<o:p></o:p> DeMartino: "I see. Perhaps it's my own STUPIDITY that allows me to think that I could impart<o:p></o:p> wisdom to a bunch of -- "<o:p></o:p> Jane: (quietly) Say it!<o:p></o:p> Daria: (quietly) Starts with an "m" -- !<o:p></o:p> A similar scene occurs in RHPS, when Brad is talking to Janet. He says "I really love the....skillful way..."<o:p></o:p> and his speech is so loaded with pauses (like most of the movie) that the rowdy audiences are <o:p></o:p> encouraged to shout out lines in the spaces. Fans have been known to shout "say it!" and "starts with<o:p></o:p> an '"s"" during this part of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Therefore, this scene with Daria, Jane,<o:p></o:p> and DeMartino might be a homage to Rocky Horror!<o:p></o:p> * Sandi's swim time goes from 16:43 to 15:07 under Quinn's tutelage. There is a grid marked with six days of the<o:p></o:p> week, Monday through Saturday, and decreasing times over the course of the week. We see Quinn and<o:p></o:p> Sandi together at the pool on Thursday.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fauvism: Brief artistic movement of the first decade of the 20th century.

Color was the dominant means of emotional expresion, and Derain, Marquet, and Roualt were members of the Fauvist movement, which was succeeded by more avant-garde movements in art by 1908-10.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Jane arrives at Ashfield, her new housemates are debating Fauvism. Paris argues with one of the others. One housemate states that Fauvism was a product of its time and now looks like "black-velvet junk". Paris counters that you can't evaluate the work outside of the context of its time, the first counters "you can if it's good".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (It is ironic that while the artists at Ashfield mock the Fauvists for throwing color around "like a dog marking its territory", most of them have their hair dyed in rather unnatural colors.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> F. D. R.: See Roosevelt, Franklin.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Feldman, Skylar: Classmate of Quinn Morgendorffer. Quinn is interested in him because his family has a boat. States that “plenty of girls want to go out with me”(108)<o:p></o:p> However, Quinn had planned to break up with Skylar in September of that year in her planner. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 106Has credit card to pay for dinner at Chez Pierre.<o:p></o:p> 107Best friend is Eric.<o:p></o:p> 108Might be a bit possessive - “I thought you were my girlfriend, now!” <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fellini, Frederico: Italian film director (1920-93). Most of his film deal with memory, sexuality, and fantasy and are highly symbolic. Among his most notable films are "La Strata", "La Dolce Vita", "8 1/2", "The Satryicon", and "Ginger and Fred".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Tom suggests a Fellini film festival to Jane in (412).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> fettuccine bolognese: Recipe involving fettuccine (a type of pasta), ground meat, tomatoes, celery, onions and spices. The Morgendorffers are having fettucine bolognese when Trent arrives to let Jane know he’ll be sleeping in The Tank in (308).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fielding: Name of Tom Sloane's "preparatory academy". It was revealed that Tom Sloane went to private school in (401).<o:p></o:p> * Referred to as "ivy-choked prep school" by Daria (406)<o:p></o:p> * Mentioned by name in (414), when Katherine Sloane is talking to Tom. (414)<o:p></o:p> * Implied that a) this is the school Tom attends and b) Fielding is co-ed. When Tom says that Daria made the <o:p></o:p> honor roll "all three trimesters", Katherine Sloane replies that Fielding doesn't have trimesters. (414)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fiennes, Ralph: English actor (1962-present). Name is pronounced “rafe fines”. Appeared in such films as “Schindler’s List”, “The Avengers” and “Maid in Manhattan”. Amy tells Daria that she can either send Daria a picture of Daria in her new contact lenses, or a picture of Ralph Fiennes. (301)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fifi: Puppy sold at the “Our Furry and Scaly Friends” pet store. Fifi seems to belong to a litter of puppies. (306)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Fifth Business": Novel by Canadian writer Robertson Davies (1913-95), written in 1970. A study in realism and shades of mysticism as the intertwining events of two lives are examined from childhood -- that of a quiet scholar returned from World War I and the other a ruthless politician. But which of the two has the most power and influence? The first book of the "Deptford Trilogy".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria is reading "Fifth Business" in between her stints helping with activities in (414).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Fifty Years of Off-Broadway Choreography”: Programming shown in place of the Denver Broncos game during (304) - the Broncos are trapped at Denver International Airport, thus no game and a lot of disappointed party guests at Sandi’s house.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fiona: Friend of Val’s, according to Val, in (305). Val drops Fiona’s name while she eats with the Morgendorffers. Val supposedly gave Fiona some lyrics and Fiona commented about how wise Val was.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fiona might be a reference to Fiona Apple (1977-present), a popular American singer.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Fire!": Fifty-first episode of the series (412). The Morgendorffers move into a hotel after a house fire, while Jane and Tom's relationship is on the rocks.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> * Art goof: Helen is sleeping in her earrings at 1 AM during the scene where Eric calls her.<o:p></o:p> * Engine 9 is the number of the fire truck from Lawndale Fire that arrives to put out the Morgendorffer kitchen fire. <o:p></o:p> * Insurance assessment reveals only smoke damage, which requires painting of downstairs and upstairs areas -- estimated time <o:p></o:p> of job: two weeks.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “First Aid for the Heart”: Jake mentions the “First Aid for the Heart” seminar at the Doubletree in (310). He thought that he and Helen were going there for the weekend instead of to the “Making Marriage Magic” seminar at the Ramada.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fishback, Carly: Candidate for library board elections in (108). Helen wants to “beat the pants off her”. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fitzgerald, Zelda: American author (“Save Me the Waltz”, 1932) and wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Their tumultuous relationship is a matter of literary history. Zelda was mentally ill and had her first nervous breakdown in 1930. She would die during a fire at the Highland (!) Mental Hospital in Asheville, North Carolina in 1948.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria rationalizes the holidays in (303) as some kind of nervous breakdown. She resolves to ride it out, “Zelda Fitzgerald-style”.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Fizz Ed": Fifty-fourth episode of the series (501). When the school's budget runs short, Ms. Li makes a deal with a soda company where the company can advertise at Lawndale High.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Takes place sometime after November, as headline of Lawndale Sun-Herald reveals that voters reject property<o:p></o:p> tax -- general voting time for tax propositions is early November<o:p></o:p> Verified during the discussion of "the 30th" as Super Bowl Sunday. The Superbowl is invariably held in January <o:p></o:p> and the closest Super Bowl held on January 30th was the Super Bowl held on January 30, 2000. This<o:p></o:p> contradicts "Is It Fall Yet?" since it is implied that the imaginary retreat claimed by Helen would take place<o:p></o:p> on a Sept 8th weekend...which would fall on Sept 8, 2000 and begin on Friday. It makes more sense to<o:p></o:p> have (501) take place in the year 2000, since it has been claimed that two seasons of Daria equal one year<o:p></o:p> of real time. Therefore Seasons One and Two cover 1997-1998, Seasons Three and Four cover 1998-1999,<o:p></o:p> and Season Five covers the latter part of 1999-2000, making Daria a sophomore during Seasons One and<o:p></o:p> Two, a junior during Seasons Three and Four, and a senior during Season Five.<o:p></o:p> School meeting takes place January 30th on a Sunday. Daria states that Sunday is an odd day for a school review<o:p></o:p> meeting to take place, and Kevin reminds Daria that January 30th is Super Bowl Sunday.<o:p></o:p> Sign reads "School Review Meeting: 6:00, Super Bowl Kickoff: 6:04". The start time was actually 6:18 Eastern<o:p></o:p> Standard Time for "Super Bowl XXXIV", implying that Lawndale is in the Eastern United States. <o:p></o:p> Three different people try to trump Daria's argument about the unethical nature of soda advertising in a public school<o:p></o:p> by asking if she drinks soda: Leonard Lamm, Jodie, and Superintendent Cartwright.<o:p></o:p> What Ms. Li tries to do to increase sales of Ultra Cola:<o:p></o:p> * bedecks the school grounds and school buses with Ultra Cola advertising.<o:p></o:p> * forces LHS teachers to use Ultra Cola-themed visual aids and lesson plans.<o:p></o:p> * increases break time between classes from five minutes to ten to increase sales of Ultra Cola<o:p></o:p> * forces football team to wear Ultra Cola-colored uniforms.<o:p></o:p> * forces cheerleaders to wear uniforms shaped like Ultra Cola cans.<o:p></o:p> * (when desperate) tells the football players that she'll raise their Grade Point Average by one point for<o:p></o:p> every twenty cans of Ultra Cola they drink<o:p></o:p> Events of "Fizz Ed" take place over at least four weeks -- Ms. Li makes a statement to the effect that the Ultra Cola<o:p></o:p> contract has been in effect for four weeks, meaning that the episode takes place either to the end of February<o:p></o:p> or beyond it.<o:p></o:p> (A particularly confusing and annoying error involves the appearance of the Lawndale Lions football team<o:p></o:p> in a game against Oakwood at the end of this "four week" period. That would put the Lawndale Lions on the<o:p></o:p> field either at the end of February or the beginning of March. High school football in the United States is<o:p></o:p> generally over by November, with any playoffs or state championships ending by January at the absolute<o:p></o:p> lates. I know of no place in the United States that plays high school football in February or March.<o:p></o:p> (My conclusion? I don't chalk up the errors to Lawndale being on some strange sports schedule that involves<o:p></o:p> spring varsity football. Rather, I chalk it up to saying, politely, that high school sports is not writer Glenn<o:p></o:p> Eichler's area of expertise...either that, or he just didn't care. -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fizzy Gulp: Unknown product sold at PayDay. (409)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Flash: Computer software which animates two-dimensional figures. The first version of Flash was created in the mid 1990s by Johnathan Gay.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jackleene angrily asks a Buzzdome.com customer if they have the most recent version of Flash in (502).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Flatware & China: Operators of a booth at the Bridal Expo at LHS in (204). Guess what they sell?<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> fly girl: General urban slang for a good-looking young woman. Also: “In Living Color” was an American sketch comedy show between 1990 and 1994. It was considered cutting edge with street sensibilities. Between sketches, a group of dancers called “Fly Girls” would come out and gyrate - Jennifer Lopez and Rosie Perez were once Fly Girls.<o:p></o:p> Jane suggests that Daria would make a good fly girl for Trent’s band in (111).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Food in Film Festival”: Film festival shown at the Playhouse 99 theater in (206).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Food Lord: Supermarket where strike occurs during (206). A striker suggests that the reason for the strike is that the company is reducing worker benefits. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Forbidden Zone: Store seen at Lawndale Mall in (403). "Forbidden Zone" could be a take on "Forbidden Planet", a New York City store devoted to comic book, anime, and comic paraphenelia. Toy odels can be seen hanging from the roof of Forbidden Zone in the background shot.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Ford, Gerald: Thirty-eighth President of the United States (1913-present). Served as Vice-President from 1973 to 1974, chosen for the position by President Richard Nixon after Vice-President Spiro Agnew resigned after pleading no contest to a charge of income tax evasion. Served as President from 1974 to 1976 after Nixon resigned to avoid impeachment over the political scandal known as Watergate.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Among his many peculiarities, Ford was known for his love of sports and golf - Ford formerly played college football. Steve Taylor states that Ford sold him his “Pebble Beach” hat in (302).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Forecast Channel: Weather-only channel. The TV at the Gupty house is set for only the Forecast Channel - all other channels are locked out. (108)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Forever Jewelers: “Rings for Every Occasion”.

Seen in the background in (303).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Frances: Senior living at the Better Days Retirement Home. Another senior states that Frances had a voice like Brittany’s when she was young.

Doctor Victor Frankenstein creates a human being from cadavers and brings it to life but does not realize the consequences of his actions. The creature sees himself as set apart from humanity and seeks revenge on his creator.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mr. O’Neill offers this book as one of the readings for his class assignment in (213)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Freakin' Friends": Name of the song that Mystik Spiral perform for Daria and Jane in (414) The chorus goes:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Freakin' friends<o:p></o:p> Freakin' friends<o:p></o:p> 'Till we come to bad ends, we're freakin' friends<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> A full length animated video of "Freakin' Friends" appeared during the intermission of the first showing of Episode 414.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> FreeBSD: A server platform created by Rod Grimes, Jordan Hubbard and Nate Williams in late 1993. A "server platform" is an operating system -- the type of software that provides access to files and applications from a personal computer as well as supports the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (http) software use to browse the Internet. It is derived from BSD, a version of the programming language UNIX developed at the University of California at Berkely.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> FreeBSD is an "open source" platform, meaning that the secrets of the code are made available to other computer programmers for free, without any reciprocal obligations. It is believed that open source platforms work "cleaner" and are less prone to crashing than proprietary platforms like Windows.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Zhengdong asks Jake in (502) for his thoughts on FreeBSD versus Linux as a server platform.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fremont: Town approximately 100 miles away from Lawndale, according to Trent. Mentioned in (310). <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 109Daria was taken to Fremont once on a business trip with her father. She describes it as “deader than Lawndale”. (310)<o:p></o:p> 110Jane states that Fremont is out of state (310)<o:p></o:p> 111Veterans of Foreign Wars post 37 is in Fremont (310).<o:p></o:p> 112Sheriff in Fremont is “a big fan of Picasso”, according to Jane (310)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fremont provides one of the clues to the location of Lawndale, as it appears to be a southwestern/Texan/desert type of town, given the terrain.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fries-N-Things: Part of food concession at Mall of the Millenium. Daria and Jane order there. (105)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (They appear to have the monopoly on the food concession as the Fashion Club walks past two different Fries-N-Things booths to get to Daria and Jane, who are in line at another Fries-N-Things area. - JB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fruits of Your Labor: Operate a booth at the Bridal Expo at LHS in (204). They sell maternity wear. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fudge Me: Store at Lawndale Mall, see in background in (405) as Quinn and Mr. O'Neill are walking by. It is a counter where fudge is sold.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> fudgie pop: See "Funnie Fudgie". (414)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "The Fugitive": Crime drama shown on American ABC television between 1963 and 1967. A doctor is accused of the murder of his own wife, and must keep one step ahead of the law. The doctor was played by David Janssen. While on the run, Dr. Richard Kimble searches for a one-armed man who he believes may have killed his wife.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During Daria's dream in (404), Jane tells Daria that Trent is head. Holding up a prosthetic limb, Jane states that she believes a one-armed man was involved, a homage to "The Fugitive". The movie was remade in 1993, starring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones as the policeman pursing Dr. Kimble.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Funky Do: Store at Lawndale Mall, see in background in (405) as Quinn and Mr. O'Neill are walking by. The stage of the teen fashion extravaganza obscures the store, but it appears to be a standard fashion store.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Funky Doodle: Retro clothing store on Dega Street. Seen in (212).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Note: During the alter egos at the end of episodes before (212), Daria was seen in a black and white square patterned short-sleeved blouse with matching red mini skirt. The same outfit is seen in the window at Funky Doodle, and Trent mentions that Daria would look good in it.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Funnie Fudgie: Type of ice cream treat sold by Mack during his job selling ice cream in (414). One of his kids wants a "fudgy pop"; he might be referring to a Funnie Fudgie.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> fuzzy navel: Alcoholic beverage. Add one and one half ounces of schnapps to a highball glass. Fill rest of glass with orange juice, add orange slice. Serve.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Val knows exactly how “cheeseball” boyfriend ended up with “Gwynnie” - apparently, it involves a pitcher of fuzzy navels. Val recounts the story - loudly - over the telephone in (305).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Fuzzy-Wuzzy Wee Bits: Shop at Mall of the Millenium. Mrs. Bennett and her husband collect Fuzzy-Wuzzy Wee Bits (105). Fuzzy-Wuzzy Wee Bits appear to be modeled after “Beanie Babies”, inexpensive bean-bag stuffed animals initially produced in 1994.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Garland, Judy: American entertainer (1922-69). Judy Garland had fame in the dual roles of actress and singer. Her most notable films are "The Wizard of Oz", "Meet Me in St. Louis", and "A Star is Born". As a very petite, masculine-looking adult with depression issues and married to a gay man at one time, as well as being a powerful, soulful singer, Ms. Garland had, and continues to have, a very strong following in the gay community.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Daria and Jane see a Sick Sad World segment called "Little Cross Dressers and the Women Who Love Them", Daria comments that if the model surrounded by the midget cross-dressers in the promo was Judy Garland, the segment would work on a number of levels . Daria undoubtedly means that the segment would work on these levels:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> 1) Judy Garland was always admired by gay men, and<o:p></o:p> 2) Judy Garland was surrounded by several very small actors playing Munchkins in "The Wizard of Oz". (410)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> (Yes, I know that cross dressers are not gay, gays are not depressed, and that my interpretation of why Judy Garland appeals so strongly to the gay community might be completely incorrect. Just remind yourself that I'm doing this for free. -- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "The Gamma People": Science-fiction movie from 1956 starring Paul Douglas and Eva Bartok. In an Iron Curtain country, gruesome experiements are performed on children to turn them into mutated slaves.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> While Helen explains that Daria's sarcastic responses to the Quiet Ivy questionnaire are just Daria's nature and not a sign of mental illness, Daria asks the staff not to listen to Helen, claiming that she's one of the "Gamma People". (408)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gang-of-Boys: A boy band that Quinn appears to like. She lists Gang-of-Boys, along with several other boy-band names while on the phone with an unidentified Fashion Club member in (407).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Garrett: Quinn’s escort at Erin’s wedding in (204). Speaks with a Southern accent. Starts a fight with the minister, as he believes that the minister’s intentions towards Quinn are not honorable. Quinn quietly tends to Garrett after he is injured (the minister seems to have gotten the worst of it).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gary: One of the students helping Ms. Defoe paint a sports mural in (406). He and Cece get into a paint fight.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gatorade: American health drink, created in 1966 by scientists working at the University of Florida. The drink replaces electrolytes lost through perspiration (very important when playing sports in the hot Florida sun). The drink was named after Florida's sports mascot, the Gators.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> After Kevin injures his knee in (403), Brittany offers to bring him a Gatorade. Kevin declines, saying that only people who play sports can drink sports drinks. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> gem tincture: Homeopathic remedy where a miniscule amount of gemstone is deluted by water. Homeopaths believe that such extremely diluted tintures (some are deluted to a parts per million ratio) have healing properties.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Mr. O'Neill offers Daria and Jane some St. John's Wort tea with a gem tincture in (405).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> George: Assistant to Val. Val contacts him by cellphone in (305), asking for a change of wardrobe after Val learns that LHS is holding School Colors day.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gereg, Chris W.: Director of the Fashionvision Humanitarian Awards. His name is seen on the closing credits of the awards in (505). (It is unknown if these are the names of real people or not -- the closing credits screen crawl is suspiciously similar to the one used at the end of "Daria" episodes, but these names are not normally associated with anyone working at MTV.-- JRB)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Get Smart: American situation comedy, 1965-70. Parody of secret agent films popular in the 1960s, incompetent secret agent Maxwell Smart manages to save the world again and again despite his complete cluelessness. Trent says in (205) that if something should be saved from the 1960s, better peace and love than a Get Smart lunchbox.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Get Up!: Unknown item sold at PayDay. (409)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> · Gidget: Character created by Frederick Kohner (1905-86). The character, a petite, irrepressibly bubbly surf girl with modern opinions, was played most memorably by Sandra Dee in the original 1959 movie and by Sally Field in a TV series from 1965-66.<o:p></o:p> · <o:p></o:p> · Jane refers to Val as “Gidget” jokingly to Daria in (305).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gifford, Kathie Lee: American singer and actress (1953-present). She is, however, best known for being a cohost on the popular talk show "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee". When Gifford left the show in 2001, the title was changed to "Live with Regis and Kelly", referring to the new cohost, Kelly Ripa.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Popular opinion is divided regarding Kathie Lee Gifford. Her public portrayal is one of being a vibrant personality who is very caring and sensititve to the needs of others; most critics, however, see Gifford as a preening narcissist.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Helen volunteers Daria for service at the "Okay to Cry" Corral in (414), Daria derisively refers to Mr. O'Neill as "the poor man's Kathie Lee Gifford".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Gifted”: Twenty-first episode of the series. (208) Daria and Jodie visit a private school. <o:p></o:p> 113References “The Lab Brat”, when Helen mentions that Daria and Kevin did a<o:p></o:p> science project together.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gilbert and Sullivan: The duo of British lyricist William Schwenck Gilbert (1836-1911) and British composer Arthur Seymour Sullivan (1842-1900). Between 1871 and 1896, Gilbert and Sullivan wrote fourteen comic operas. Their best known works include "The Pirates of Penzance", "H. M. S. Pinafore" and "The Mikado".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (505), Jake complains about Corporal Ellenbogen telling him that the song he wrote for a musical at Buxton Ridge Military Academy musical stunk. Jake says that he shouldn't have accepted criticism from someone who thought that musical comedy ended with Gilbert and Sullivan.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gimme Gym: Shop seen on the Lawndale Homecoming parade route in (406). Facing the store, to the left of the store is Tom's Liquor and to the right is a branch of the United States Post Office.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gimme Some Skin: Leather goods shop at Lawndale Mall. First seen in (403). Kevin buys his "rebel" motorcycle jacket there.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Girlie Clothes: Store at the Lawndale Mall.

The organization seeks to teach young girls and women about nature and crafts. It is the American version of the British Girl Guides.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jane implies that she belonged to the Girl Scouts at some time before (402). She states that the marching and singing drove her out, and that she was no longer a Girl Scout "after the deprogramming".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gleason, Chelsea : One of four background designers of the Fashionvision Humanitarian Awards. Her name is seen on the closing credits of the awards in (505).

Undoubtedly a stock or securities firm, as Jake makes a joke -- in poor taste -- about insider training. (414) Tom implies that the "Sloane" in Grace, Sloane, and Page refers to his father.<o:p></o:p> * Tom plans to work in father's office for one month in (414). Tells Daria that "you can help me file earnings reports".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> grade-point average: Numerical indicator of student grades. American grades are generally letter grades, ranking A (the highest grade), then B, C, D, and F (failing). The grade average assigns a value of 4 to A, 3 to B, and down to 0 for F. The class grades are then totaled and averaged, giving a general idea as to how well a student is doing academically, i.e. 3.4 or 2.6. Helen states that Quinn’s grade point average needs to be brought up in (105).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gravano, Sammy "The Bull": American mobster (1945-present) born Salvatore Gravano in Bensonherst, NY. Gravano is famous for testifying against American mob boss John Gotti in 1992. Gravano had plastic surgery and entered the Witness Protection Program, but was charged with a crime in 2000 and is currently serving time in an Arizona prison.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (403), Quinn natters on about Sandi wanting to join the Witness Protection Program after Lawndale becomes a "loser" school. Quinn adds, however, that Sandi refuses to go if they make her dye her hair that "brassy blond". Daria says, "That's what Sammy 'The Bull" Gravano said." <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Green Eggs and Ham": Short illustrated children's story written by American writer and illustrator Theodore Seuss Geisel (1904-91), also known as "Dr. Seuss" in 1960. Sam tries to get his friend to eat a dish of green eggs and ham, but his friend absolutely refuses to eat them. In the end, the friend finally gives up, eats the green eggs and ham, and discovers he likes them. The moral is not to let your initial impressions keep you from trying new things.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> The story is simple, only fifty words long. American author and editor Bennett Cerf bet Seuss that Seuss couldn't write a book only using fifty words. This story was Dr. Seuss's response.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> When Helen remarks that Quinn's reading a new book in (411), Daria says that she hates to give the ending away, "but at the end, he eats the green eggs and the ham". <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Going on a Picnic”: Memory game. The first person says “I’m going on a picnic, and I’m bringing _______”, and fills in the blank with an object beginning with “A”. The second person repeats what the first person has said, and adds an object beginning with “B”. If a person cannot name all the items, he or she is eliminated. The winner is the last person remaining. Daria, Jane, Trent and Jesse play this game in (111).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Goldberg, Whoopi: American actress and comedian (1955-present). When Mack reveals that he was renamed after Michael Jordan by his father, Tommy Sherman tells Mack to remind his father not to go to any Whoopi Goldberg movies in (113).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gone Pawn: Shop seen on the Lawndale Homecoming parade route in (406). Facing the store, to the left of the store is Husky Fellas and to the right is Tom's Liquor.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "Gone With the Wind": American movie made in 1939, starring Clark Gable and Vivian Leigh. A young Southern belle's world is shattered during the American Civil War, and she is torn between the respectable Southern gentleman she loves and the dashing rogue who loves her.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> During one scene, Scarlett, forced to dig for food from the ground, swears that she'll never be brought down to this even if she has to "lie, cheat or steal". She says, "As God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again!"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> One of the scenes with Ms. Barch in (402) is a homage to this scene in "Gone With the Wind".<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> In (414), Mack says that when working on the ice cream truck, wearing his white suit, earning minimum wage and dealing with bratty kids that he felt like a house slave in "Gone With the Wind". <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "The Good Ship Lollipop": Reference to the song "On the Good Ship Lollipop" made in (402). The song is heard on the 1934 American film "Bright Eyes" starring Shirley Temple (American actress/ambassador, 1928-present). Temple is probably the most famous child star ever, known as a singer and dancer in many of her movies in the 1930s.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> While Helen dances during charades, Jake guesses "The Good Ship Lollipop". (402)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Good Time Chinese Restaurant: Chinese eating establishment in Lawndale. According to The Saint Patrick’s Day Leprechaun, it’s a chain store.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> A dimensional wormhole (q. v.) located at the Good Time Chinese Restaurant in Lawndale provides a passageway to Holiday Island. The passageway apparently exits at a version of the Good Time Chinese Restaurant which exists on Holiday Island. Seen in (303).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Goosh: Item sold in beauty isle near moisturizing cream at PayDay (409).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gordon: Possible student at Lawndale High School. Going out with Victoria as of (111). Six inches shorter than Victoria.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Gore-Tex: Material developed by W. L. Gore and Associates in 1989. The material is a breathable water membrane that blocks wind. Gore-Tex products are introduced by the phrase, "Guaranteed to Keep You Dry". <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Quinn is thinking of ordering a "Gore-Tex twin set" for parties in (402)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> "got milk?" Successful American ad campaign. The campaign was started by the California Milk Processor Board in 1993. The most famous of the "got milk?" ads -- which use the phrase as a final line -- was the first ad in 1993, where an Aaron Burr expert listens to a quiz show on the radio offer a cash prize to anyone who can answer a history question. The expert knows the answer is "Aaron Burr", but since he has a mouth full of peanut butter -- and no milk -- he cannot get the words "Aaron Burr" out in any comprehensible manner.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Jake complains that Helen won't even let him drink "innocent milk" in (408). "Got Milk? Not Jakie, Dammit!"<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Goya, Francisco: See “The Work of Goya”.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “The Graduate”: 1967 film starring Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft and Katherine Ross. A college graduate (Hoffman) looking for meaning finds himself romantically involved both with a young woman (Ross) and her mother (Bancroft), who seduces him.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Daria’s imaginary story of Kevin and Brittany’s wedding borrows from The Graduate, complete with Jane banging on the glass from the balcony, the interruption of the wedding, and the escape of Jane and Kevin in a bus, with Jane and Kevin playing the roles of Hoffman and Ross, respectively.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Graham: Student at Grove Hills in (208).<o:p></o:p> 114Goal is to “make first million” and stroll down Riviera with a model on each<o:p></o:p> arm. (208)<o:p></o:p> 115When Daria suggest that you can be both “intellectually gifted” and “morally bankrupt”, Graham replies “I certainly hope so!” (208)<o:p></o:p> 116Implied that when he was in high school, the quarterback told the whole school that he showered in a towel.

An Oklahoma family is uprooted by the Dust Bowl during the Depression and takes a treacherous trip to relocate to California.<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> David Sorenson attempts to teach Tiffany about the book in (414), but Tiffany is more interested in applying makeup. She merely agrees with anything David says, and David understands Tiffany isn't listening when he refers to "The Grapes of Wrath" as a heavy metal band with a baboon on bass guitar. (Tiffany agrees.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Grand Regency Hotel: Hotel one hour away from Lawndale. A “four-star” hotel, according to Val. Val intends to spend the night there while she is in Lawndale (305).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> “Great White Shark”: Roadside attraction in (202). The “Great White Shark” in question is only the tooth of a shark, T-shirts, posters, and a legend told by an over enthusiastic staff member. The legend seems to correspond TOO closely to the plot of “Jaws”, but with the difference that the staffer claims to be the “Great Shark Hunter”!<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Green Day: American rock band (c. 1990-present). Green Day’s music is heavily influenced by the “punk” sound. Sandi mentions “Green Day on big screen” as one of the benefits of attending her party vs. Quinn’s school dance in (304).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Grey Fox: Unknown entity Helen refers to while under the effect of “glitterberries”.<o:p></o:p> (“Now go tell Grey Fox I have given my blessing.”) (112)<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p> Griffin, Chris: Younger brother of Sandi and Sam Griffin, youngest child in family.

(311)<o:p></o:p> 154"The woods are full of slimy, cold-blooded creatures. Isn't that right, Quinn?"
