At the beginning of the episode, Quinn is holding the wall calendar open at May 12 when she says that it is Daria and Tom's six-month anniversary. That would mean that this episode takes place sometime in November. The previous episode, however, takes place over the Super Bowl, which is traditionally held in January or February. |

This episode satired the dot-com bubble of 1995-2000, though by the time the episode would have been written the bubble was starting to end - unfortunately, by the time it ''aired'' the bubble was rapidly deflating and the companies Buzzdome.com parodies were going under. |

Summary
This episode concerns Daria's concern that Tom Sloane has forgotten an anniversary of theirs. Though Daria was "reminded" of the occasion by Quinn, rather than remembering it on her own, it never-the-less triggers a concern in her that Tom is taking her for granted.
In the meanwhile, Jake gets involved in a questionable company called Buzzdome.com.
Timeline headaches
At the beginning of the episode, Quinn is holding the wall calendar open at May 12 when she says that it is Daria and Tom's six-month anniversary. That would mean that this episode takes place sometime in November. The previous episode, however, takes place over the Super Bowl, which is traditionally held in January or February.
This episode satired the dot-com bubble of 1995-2000, though by the time the episode would have been written the bubble was starting to end - unfortunately, by the time it aired the bubble was rapidly deflating and the companies Buzzdome.com parodies were going under. In fanfiction, this is part of the reason why some fans assume Daria graduated in 2000, which puts this episode in 1999; the previous episode fits that theory. (Another popular graduation year is 2001, when the bubble was exploding)
