Even at this early age, Quinn is the more popular of the two, making many friends at camp while Daria resents being forced into group activities. Thinking a boy had fallen under her charms, Quinn happily joins him and his friends at just before a nature hike, thinking they had brought her a 'special bug spray' to keep her safe from creepy crawlies.
