Tomgate was a nickname given by the Daria fandom to describe the love triangle between Daria Morgendorffer, Tom Sloane, and Jane Lane in the fourth season of Daria. The events of Tomgate are part of the Daria canon and occur in two episodes: "Fire!" and "Dye! Dye! My Darling". However, many hint that the love triangle actually begins in the sixth episode of the fourth season, "I Loathe a Parade".
