Kain's only purpose was to somehow remove a clone of himself from society, by either detaining him, or eliminating him (Eveneven though that was the last thing he ever wanted). His project was nearing completion when he decided to take everyone to the Alternapalooza festival (Alongalong with a clone of Kain's [[Sally_Kaine|dead wife]], who decided to take the unusual form of an altered version of Daria's appearance).

After a lengthy argument with Jake and Helen Morgendorffer, Kain decides to shove everyone in the house (Quinn included) into the tunnels leading from Daria's closet to the garage of Kain's Estate. After a phone call, Trent, Jesse, and Reuben join them at the Estate, where they meet with Kain's close friends (Andand bodyguards), [[The Right-Handfull Trio]], who were speaking with Kain at the beginning of the series, but were given some time off to go on a vacation.

After getting a message from the computer in the basement, Kain asks forasked everyone to help him move all his stuff into the craft his underground factory finished building (Since a week before the series began). They taketook off at the end of the day, destroying the Estate and leaving a 3/4-mile deep crater in the ground (Jake and Helen wereare dumped in a parachuting escape pod just over their house). The ship uses the only afterburner fuel to make a single burst towards New York, where Kain's Clone (Now named [[Kraxus]]) has set up a criminal empire.

During the trip to New York, Daria and Trent (Afterafter much bickering from Jane) spendspent some time in a garden aboard the ship where they meet [[Jackyl: The Parrot Asshole]], Quinn decidesdecided to sit down with a few back issues of Waif in the Library (She would later get around to reading a real book), Jane observesobserved a few paintings Kain has collected (Andand drew), and Kain preparesprepared for the carnage ahead by using the same cloning device to amass a small battalion. The group reachreached New York, and everyone splitssplit off to see the sights while keeping an eye out for PrestonCorp International, the dummy corporation behind the criminal empire. After many follies (Andand oddball crossovers), the group converge upon the business skyscraper where Kraxus and his own followers are waiting for them.

Daria recovers, but only at the moment when Kain and Sally sacrifice themselves to blow up the PrestoncorpPrestonCorp building with Kraxus and his loyal minions.

She receives a time-delayed message from Kain, recorded during Daria's time in her coma. Kain describes how to make a special cocktail that was made just for her, using ingredients that were planted in her quarters (Thethe effects of which would not be realized for quite some time).
