Line 27:
In an unguarded moment, a shaken Daria tries to talk with her father about it - admitting that she doesn't ''like'' the "brain" identity she's saddled with, but if it's 'stolen' then she's "got nothing". Unfortunately, Jake's response devolves into a panicked rant about his own failed life, ending with a plea to Daria that "You're still a young man! You don't have to live with your mistakes! ''Get out while you can!''" She retreats, dryly commenting that "talking to you has made me feel better about myself" (he doesn't get it).
 
Meanwhile, Quinn has her share of problems: with so many girls following Quinn’s example and wearing black (imitating Quinn’s intellectual poseur), a furious [[Sandi Griffin|Sandi]] suspends Quinn from the [[the Fashion Club]]. Sandi then sets out to draft Daria into helping convince Quinn to give up on braindom; unfortunately, the very idea of talking to the girl is too scary for Sandi to handle, and she retreats after two seconds.
 
Quinn confides in [[Jane Lane|Jane]] that while she loves how much her sister is being messed up by this, she thinks everybody’s making a big deal of her essay and doesn't understand why. ''She'' knows she's not as smart as everyone thinks. Jane explains how the girl has trained everyone to expect nothing from her and thus overreact to the slightest bit of effort, but it doesn't get through.
