Groped by an Angel: Difference between revisions

Line 16:
After watching a television show proclaiming the existence of guardian angels, [[Quinn Morgendorffer|Quinn]] finds religion, kinda-sort, and believes that guardian angels are monitoring even the minor details of her life. [[Daria Morgendorffer|Daria]] is, of course, skeptical (and annoyed), but that's not the least of her problems: [[Jane]] is pressuring her to go to a party that's being held in [[Brittany Taylor|Brittany's]] honor to celebrate her "C-" average (a party at which [[Mystik Spiral]] is performing). Jane finally convinces her to go by reminding her that Quinn would be mortified if they went.
 
Quinn's new-found spirituality is reinforced when she narrowly avoids being hit by a falling light fixture that [[Jake]] is attempting to install, claiming that her guardian angel saved her. [[Stacy]] and [[Tiffany]] are also convinced, as are the [[Three J'sJs]], but [[Sandi]] doesn't buy it. However, there's no stopping Quinn, especially after the rest of the [[Fashion Club]] becomes ill after eating salad with bad dressing from the school cafeteria. Daria becomes increasingly irritated by what she sees as her sister's faux spirituality and obvious gullibility, an attitude that starts to irritate an exasperated [[Helen]], who sees nothing wrong with what she sees as an essentially harmless belief.
 
At Brittany's party, Sandi takes every opportunity to gloat when Quinn is twice humiliated: once when Brittany's out-of-control brother [[Brian Taylor|Brian]] soaks her with a drink, and again when she leans on Mystik Spiral's mixing board, causing electronic feedback that shatters the gift that Brittany's father bought for her. At home, Quinn is mortified at what she believes is the loss of her guardian angel; Daria is sarcastic at first, but relents when Quinn turns to her for advice, asking what she believes in. Daria's unsarcastic answer:
