Daria

This episode is quite possibly the pinnacle of the entire series. It gives insight on who Daria actually is and why she acts the way she does. The flashbacks aren't clips of other episodes, but scenes from Daria's past that she must deal with in order to understand her family dynamic as a whole and gain understanding of her parents and vice-versa.



The episode revolves around a suppressed memory of a fight her parents had one night when she was five - a fight of which Daria and her attitude were the topic. Similarities between the suppressed past and present future are heightened with the reminder of a giant refrigerator box and the comfort it used to bring her, hence the title of the episode.



This is an episode that shouldn't be missed.
