'''"Partner's Complaint"'' was the firstpremiere episode of the fourth season of the ''Daria'' TV series (episode number 401). It first aired on MTV on February 25, 2000 and was written by [[Glenn Eichler]].
 
The title of this episode comes from the novel ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portnoy%27s_Complaint Portnoy's Complaint]'' by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Roth Philip Roth].
Line 21:
At the Morgendorffer’s, as Jodie and Daria finish preparing their presentation, they lock horns when Daria denounces Jodie’s hypocritical attitude and tactics to get the bank loan. Jodie takes offense and counters that she used her resources to get the project done, "approach[ing] an adult financial situation like adults", and further pointing out they’re partners only because Daria’s fighting with Jane. Later, [[Helen Morgendorffer|Helen]] goes to talk to Daria about the situation, reassuring her daughter on her moral standards, and assuring that Jodie, more pragmatic, will probably not take long term offense at the fight, further hinting Jane could have the same reaction.
 
Later, at [[Pizza PrinceKing]], Brittany talks to Jodie, describing Wally’s interactions, apparently unaware the salesman is trying to seduce her. When Kevin and Mack meet them, the two ex-sweethearts exchange some tense words about achieving the lowest car sale price. The QB initially basks in the knowledge that he got a cheap deal… before leaving in a panic when he realizes the sale was not supposed to be concluded.
 
The next day the students make their presentations in the economics class: Kevin and Mack resume their experience with the car salesman car before Kevin leaves the classroom in tears; Jodie and Daria make an ensemble presentation addressing their work for a bank loan, and Jodie is relieved when Daria makes no public mention of her opinions. After class, Jodie and Daria clear the air and apologize for their earlier fight. After that, as Daria is about to apologize to Jane, the latter makes a large speech making reference to Daria’s past jerkiness and that she forgives her.
 
In the final scene, inat Pizza PrinceKing, Jane and Daria recount the past days’ events before spotting Kevin and Brittany back together. The sweethearts’ idyll is interrupted by Wally, who offers Brittany Kevin’s returned car, thus causing the two to immediately start fighting again…
