The Big House: Difference between revisions

While grounded, Daria is shown reading Herman Melville's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moby-Dick ''Moby-Dick''] in the living room. This may be commentary on Helen's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moby-Dick#Ahab Ahab-like mania] for legal procedure. Later, when Quinn is frustrated with boredom, she breaks down and asks Daria for a book. Daria (who is reading Fyodor Dostoyevsky's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brothers_Karamazov ''The Brothers Karamazov'']) responds by offering her Homer's ''Iliad'' which provokes this exchange:

It should be noted that ''The Iliad'' does not include the story about the Trojan Horse; this story appears in ''The Aeneid''. We must assumeSince Daria's wassupposed eitherto mistakenhave inread thinking''The soIliad'', orshe's else wasprobably having fun at Quinn's expense (and that the writers forgot which play it was).
