"Jake of Hearts" was the ninth episode of the third season of Daria (episode number 309). It first aired on MTV on July 21st, 1999 and was written by Dan Vebber.
Summary
Jake has a mild heart attack and his mother, Ruth, comes to stay to help tend to him as he recovers. Meanwhile, Bing and the Spatula Man, two "morning zoo" DJs, arrive at Lawndale High, much to Daria's annoyance. Wacky yet poignant hijinks ensue.
"Jake of Hearts" and Fanfic
This episode was one of those that turned aside from disaster at the last moment, much as happened in "The Teachings of Don Jake" and "Boxing Daria." Jake's heart attack has reappeared in many fanfics. In alternate-universe stories, it is often fatal; in post-canon tales, a subsequent heart attack is nearly always fatal.
Trivia
- The reactions on the DJ's trying to set up Upchuck with a date are very similar to the reactions Daria and her fellow then-classmates had when Coach Buzzcut asked them to perform mouth to mouth CPR on Beavis and Butt-Head in "Water Safety" Although Jodie sees it from a different perspective, remarking that "Even Upchuck doesn't deserve this much humiliation."
