Line 37:
''[[The Daria Database]]'', written two years earlier by Peggy Nicoll - the same writer as "Murder" and, from season 4, the story editor - mentions DeMartino was placed in [[Brookside Rest Home]] psychiatric hospital after assaulting Kevin. The end of this episode has Kevin being choked, the first of a few tie-ins to ''Database'' in this season (Kevin's parents in "[[Mart of Darkness]]" first appeared there).
This episode contains multiple lighthearted parodies of detective shows and movies. Since Daria's dreaming all the references and parodies, she's presumably a fan of one or more of the shows referenced.
The references include:
The episode title is a play on the television series ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder,_She_Wrote Murder, She Wrote]'', which was referenced in the episode itself.▼
