Line 24:
The following day, Daria goes to see O'Neill, explains her lack of progress and frustration and requests not to write the story. The teacher encourages her instead, adding the requirement of using a game of cards in the story. Daria tries using this into the previous medieval story (this time starring [[Mack Mackenzie|Mack]] and [[Jodie Landon|Jodie]]), but ends up also throwing it away.
 
The next evening, Helen once again finds Daria slumpslumped and depressed over her lack of progress. After apologizing for her previous comments, she once again encourages Daria to write, providing her with a hint: what if, instead of using sarcasm and describing what she sees, her daughter writes about what she would like to see? Daria takes the idea and is finally able to complete her story:
 
''A few years into the future, adults Daria and Quinn visit their parents. Grey-haired Helen and Jake have now retired, with Jake having had heart surgery. As to the daughters, Daria is married to a college professor called Marcello and writes opinion columns, still defending the same ideas she had in High school, and Quinn has married Jamie and is now mother of four kids. As the four Morgendorffers talk, Jake reveals that the family has come out as he wished: Daria is now a known activist, demanding honesty and truth, and Quinn has transformed from a fashion-obsessed teenager to a responsible mother. So now he just wants to enjoy life and has asked her daughters over to play a nice game of cards with his family. After a brief discussion, they agree on Hearts.''
