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.
