After an obnoxious local celebrity dies on a visit to Lawndale High, everyone seeks counsel from Daria about being miserable while Jane is being strangely distant.
The return of the rest of the Lane family sends Jane, then Trent over to the Morgendorffer household. But a third visitor begins to shatter Daria's illusions of life with Trent.
Tom falls asleep in Daria's bed, spurring rumors that they're sexually active (thanks to Quinn), which eventually makes her consider putting those rumors to rest by giving up her virginity for real.
