Line 23:
Her visit to Ted’s (and the fact she has given Ted some gum) prompts furious [[Leslie DeWitt]] and [[Grant Clinton]] to visit the Morgendorffers and demand Daria stops seeing their son. [[Jake Morgendorffer|Jake]] and [[Helen Morgendorffer|Helen]] are too surprised about their strange beliefs to be intimidated. However, their visit leaves them worried and they try to extract information from their daughters. Quinn only offers vague rumors about Ted being a freak. Daria offers her opinion they are all overreacting, insisting they’re not dating. Unconvinced, Helen and Jake bribe Quinn to hook her sister with someone. So, that evening, Quinn convinces Daria to double date with her, providing [[Robert]] as Daria’s date. As he tries to make conversation by reading clue cads, Daria goes along until he breaches the subject of returning the yearbook pages, at which point Daria breaks the date and returns home.
 
The next day at the yearbook, the [[Fashion Club]] plus Kevin and Brittany try again to convince DeMartino to return the pages taken from clubs and sports. However, Ted intervenes and is able to send the whole group away, first by loudly announcing an (inexistent) sale at [[CashmansCashman's]] and then by applying a joint lock on Kevin, making him retreat in pain. This so impresses Daria that she convinces him to take him out for pizza. That evening, the two teenagers go out and tentatively reveal they like each other. Things go wrong, however, when they go to the video arcade and enter a medieval world simulator. Daria feels sick in the virtual world and quickly leaves, but Ted is joined in the VR by Robert and some friends. These try first to harass them, but quickly change as Ted first defeats them in a sword fight and then leads them in adventures in the virtual world.
 
The results of the night’s events are soon revealed the next day: Ted, Robert and the others are now hanging out together, Ted having apparently forgotten Daria. After she and Jane lament the missed date, Daria is informed by a terrified DeMartino that the yearbook pages had been returned to clubs (a decision caused by a trashing he had received by a psychotic [[Janet Barch]]). At home, Daria laments these events and is further incensed to learn her promised software had been given to Quinn, who had already used it to set up a web site. Visiting her sister at her room, she makes small talk before extracting her revenge on Quinn.
