Line 64:
* Helen agrees on the phone that the self esteem class is a good idea ("you're the expert"). Jake's response of "that really stinks" was intended to go into a more controlled "how can a ''great kid'' like Daria have low self esteem?" - leading into the gag of Helen's cry of "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?"
 
* O'Neill was intended to be a "fresh scrubbed young teacher" and he has a lot more guff he himself doesn't understand in his opening scene ("finding the centre of your you-ness"). When Daria says Helen's look "stands proudly and proclaims "I am"" in the finished episode, she's quoting O'Neill from here. Daria's "something that will really make them suffer" line is originally a punchline to her first saying her idle daydream is to make her family suffering "for what tehythey've done me", while O'Neill first thinks is a funny joke and later, when he learns it's not, asks if it's "been that bad?" before giving up.
 
* Jane is "nihilistic, enervated, nasal as a son of a gun". Speaking of nihilistic, there's a cut line about how she has a better way to feel special "but I've never been any good with assault weapons".

==Timeline headaches==
 
The calendercalendar in the Morgendorffer house is at [[May 12]]. This would mean the school year is already well into its run, that Daria spent most of her sophomore year at [[Highland High]], and that "[[Road Worrier]]" can take place during August as "[[The Daria Diaries]]" says it should. This, however, clashes with parts of "The Daria Diaries" which includes an assignment from March, Fashion Club entries from February & March, and diary entries from the autumn. "[[Depth Takes a Holiday]]" has to happen ''before'' October 31st, and we can't easily cram every episode between "Worrier" and "Depth" into two months...

Line 107:
There are four other new students in the first-day tour of Lawndale High. All four hang around as voiceless [[backgrounder|background characters]]; "[[Shaggy]]" and "[[Scarlett (character)|Scarlett]]" have proven popular because of their distinctive looks.
 
Brittany and stacyStacy's voices are noticeably different. Brittany doesn't have her trademark high-pitched, squeaky voice.
 
This episode has the single reference to Daria's old show ''[[Beavis and Butt-head (TV series)|Beavis and Butt-head]]'', when Helen refers to how Daria shouldn't want Lawndale to be "[[Highland]] all over again". (The girl says it can't be "unless there's uranium in the drinking water here too") Neither [[Beavis and Butt-head|Beavis, Butthead]] nor any character or setting from Highland will be mentioned during the entire run of ''Daria''.
