Line 4:
Shaggy appears in the very first ''Daria'' episode, "[[Esteemsters]]," at the back of the small group of new students that [[Principal Li]] is showing around [[Lawndale High]]. [[Daria]] and [[Quinn]] are at the front of the group. This implies that he, too, was a new student and beginning 10th grade there. In "The New Kid," Shaggy is shown working as part of the school yearbook staff. He shares various classes with Daria and [[Jane]] in the series (such as Jane's math class in "[[See Jane Run]]"), but he never interacts with them.
Shaggy has a curious place in the lore of this fandom, as various episodes appear to show him doing impossible or at least unlikely things. He appears in two places at one time in "[[The Invitation]]" and "[[This Year's Model]]," and is shown in a flashback at least three years earlier at a [[Lawndale High]] football game, watching [[Tommy Sherman]] play, in "[[The Misery Chick]]." (Several other background students also appear in the shot, none so clearly as he.) In "[[Groped by an Angel]]," he is seen sitting at a table with [[the Three Js]] listening to [[Quinn]] talk about her guardian angel, which is unusual because Quinn is shown in other episodes (e.g., "[[The New Kid]]") to be very particular about who sits at a lunch table with her.
He also has a knack for appearing during certain important events in the series. He watched [[Kevin Thompson]] crash his motor scooter and break his leg in "[[A Tree Grows in Lawndale]]," was aboard the doomed passenger ship ''Princess Fairy'' in "[[Just Add Water]]" (wearing a suit, no less), hears Daria's startling speech about her father in "[[Jake of Hearts]]," and is one of the few eyewitnesses to the falling out between Daria and [[Jane]] in a school hallway when Daria admits kissing [[Tom Sloane]] ("[[Dye! Dye! My Darling]]").
