'''"Legends of the Mall"''' was the tenth episode of the fourth season of the television series ''Daria'' (episode number 410). It first aired on MTV on July 12, 2000.
"Legends of the Mall" was written by [[Peter Elwell]].
Line 27:
Later that evening, Jake serves Quinn and Daria a lasagna dinner just in time for Helen to come back from work. A proud Jake announces her wife that 'he' made sure that both girls were home and prepared dinner. After acknowlegding this, Helen tells of strange encouter: on her way home, while driving through the woods, she had heard strange music and metalic sounds. As she concludes, the camera focuses on her car, showing a familiar (to the viewers) set of [[Metalmouth|steel dentures]] clamped to the door handle.
==Trivia==
This is one of the few episodes to retain an original song on the [[Daria: The Complete Animated Series|the DVD boxset]]. As with "[[One J at a Time]]", this is because a character (Metalmouth) is singing along to the song. A new recording of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" was commissioned for the release.
Helen starts driving [http://web.archive.org/web/20120710052624/http://www.outpost-daria.com/transportation.html a different SUV] after this episode. This is the only time [[Off-Canon Canon#Fantasy Episodes and Scenes|a supernatural event]] would have an impact on future episodes. (In real life this may be a complete coincidence, but on screen...)
===70s Upchuck's failed essay===
On the DVD, it was found that the exam that 70s Upchuck failed in the "House of Bad Grades" story was legible, reading:
''Why did William Jennings Bryan say that [http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Cross_of_Gold_Speech "Man should not be crucified on a cross of gold"]?''
''William Jennings Bryan probly'' [sic] ''didn't like to see people get crucified at all 'cause you know it's very painful what with the nails and the hanging in the saw and stuff and doing it in a cross made of gold only made it worse because what a waste of gold that could be made into chains or other jewelry or something. What time's lunch?''
On a related note, this scene is the only time in the series that Upchuck's mother is seen, though given the situation her depiction is of [[Off-Canon Canon|questionable canon]].
