'''The Gang of Four''' was a short-term acronym for the four principal characters in classic ''Daria'' fanfiction who allseem to travel together ("[[Road Worrier]]," "[[That Was Then, This Is Dumb]]").

The four were [[romantically paired off|shipper]] as Daria/Trent and Jane/Jesse. The creation of the latter was probably influenced strongly by "[[Road Worrier]]," thanks to a scene in which [[Jane Lane]] and [[Jesse Moreno]] are shown leaning against each other, asleep in the back of the [[Tank]]. "Write Where It Hurts" also indicates a closer than expected relationship between Jesse and Jane. Quinn, in Daria's imagination, sees Trent and Jesse on horseback, and cries: "But look! Here approaches Mr. Lane himself, along with his sister's admirer, Mr. Moreno." This means Daria believed Jesse liked Jane, and in ''liked'' liked. The Jane/Jesse coupling does take a damaging hit in "[[That Was Then, This Is Dumb]]," when at the flea market it becomes clear that Jesse is not listening to anything Jane says.
