Line 18:
[[Quinn]] is terrified at the idea of Daria as her teacher, fearing both social embarrassment if people know Daria's her sister and that Daria will deliberately mark her down. [[Jake]] is hoping "does this mean we can just do our parent-teacher conferences here? Hello, free time for model railroading!"
On the picket line, the teachers don't seem to be getting their message across very well, until [[
In English class, Daria discovers that the students were studying Romeo and Juliet, and after a few classes, prepares to give them a test on the material. [[Sandi]] urges Quinn to convince Daria to go easy on them, threatening to let people know that Daria is her sister, but Daria is not swayed; she's determined to do the best she can in a thankless position. Quinn is smarter than they are, Daria reminds her, and they deserve to fail if all they're interested in doing is figuring out how to pass the test with little to no effort. Dejected, Quinn hunkers down to study, but when Jake tries (and fails) to help her, she finds that she already knows the material.
Line 46:
This is also the only episode, aside from Daria reading them out loud in "[[Speedtrapped]]", where someone else is singing [[Trent]]'s lyrics.

=="Lucky Strike" and Fanfic==
* [[Ken Edwards]] has appeared in numerous fanfics, usually as an antagonist: see his fate [[The Angst Guy]]'s "[[Just Desserts]]" and a horrifying AU of "Lucky Strike" that occurs in "[[After the End]]", and his predatory designs being exploited by [[Melody Powers]] in [[BF110C4]]'s "[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=36717 Operation Glitterberries]". A rare sympathetic take is the post-canon story [[Calling Calliope]] by [[Dennis]], where Ken is still working on the the book and his designs on Tiffany are not sexual.
* [[The Angst Guy]] gives Mrs. Stoller a small role in his alternate universe tale, "[[It Slipped Through My Hands, Like a Shadow, Like a Dream]]." While still a substitute teacher, she is not at Lawndale High for a strike, but for the special needs of that story's version of Daria, a developmentally disabled teen.
* Fan character [[Jasper Ewing]], the most boring Maths teacher in the world, is based on one of the unnamed teachers. He appears regularly in "[[God Save The Esteem]]".
