This is the first episode to bring up [["Mad Dog" Morgendorffer]] and have Jake rant about what his father did to him. (The name is a reference to the 1976 film [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Dog_Morgan ''Mad Dog Morgan''])
 
[[Summer Lane]], [[Wind Lane]], and [[Penny Lane]] are mentioned first here,. andAll three will allhave their characters partially fleshed out in "[[The Daria Diaries]]" and laterphysically appear in "[[Lane Miserables]]". [[Aunt Bernice]], [[Uncle Max Lane]], and [[Grandma Lane]] make their only appearances here.
 
None of Jane's relatives appear to be artists or hippie-esque. Is this what made [[Vincent Lane]]'s branch of the family the "black sheep"?
 
==“The Teachings of Don Jake” and Fanfic==
This episode is notable because for a short time the lives of the Morgendorffers hang by the barest of threads. The ''deus ex machina'' that saves everyone's life lies in Daria's discovery of her mother's cell phone and ability to dial [[911]] while the rest of her family, hallucinating wildly from eating psychotropic berries, runs off through an uninhabited woodland. Daria's refusal to eat the berries is also a key element. The potential for [[Alternate Universe|alternate-universe]] stories is great, and indeed several AU versions of this tale exist with outcomes ranging from comedy to tragedy.
