This is a hidden joke, as Daria feels that Helen forcing her to get a job is comparable to that of forced prison labor under Stalin. (SheDaria ''really'' hated that job.)

Several of the black female "background characters" are shown hanging out at the mall - [[Jennifer (black girl)|Jennifer]], "[http://www.theangstguy.com/backgrounders/016.html Orange Girl[Kia]]" and "[http://www.theangstguy.com/backgrounders/018.html[Backgrounder#Bib Overalls|Bib Overalls]]", all in Daria's year and in some of her classes. It implies all three are friends - and that's notable, because despite [[Jodie Landon]]'s repeated complaints about being one of the few minority students at Lawndale and the pressure that puts on her to be a perfect 'representative' of her race, she's ''never'' been seen hanging with those three or anyone else.
