  • Quinn discovers her spiritual side when she decides that she has a guardian angel to keep her from making such life-altering mistakes as wearing the wrong shoes or last-season's earrings. Daria, of course, is one of the many skeptics as Quinn desperatelymoreless

    While this episode may not be one of the best of the series (or even the season) it is one of my personal favorites simply because of the clever dialogue. I think the reason that many people do not like this episode too much is simply because of the subject of the episode being about the existence of guardian angels. Personal feelings aside, it is a great episode for character development. We discover that Quinn's character is not as simple as it seems--she does have a spiritual side and believes in guardian angels. Daria, for as skeptical as she is, even comforts Quinn at the end of the episode despite her personal feelings about the subject and Quinn herself. In fact, most of the cast debates the existence of guardian angels for the entire episode (many coming to interesting, if not uninformed, conclusions) while keeping the episode very light-hearted.moreless

  • TRIVIA (1)

    ADD TRIVIA

    • This episode shows that Brittany's father clearly favors Brittany over her kid brother. As he considers taking her brother and 20 of his friends, to "the ball game" and spending a whopping $50 on corn dogs, the equivalent of throwing a massive party, with a band, for Brittany. Not to mention, getting her a "priceless" crystal bull horn, paid for with her kid brother's collage fund, all for her getting a C- average!

  • QUOTES (12)

    ADD QUOTES

    • Quinn: But there's nothing watching over us? Nothing keeping track? Daria: Well, there's the IRS, and those guys with the black helicopters.

    • Daria: And now my once-rational mother is telling me I should respect Quinn's beliefs. Jane: Hmm...I suppose the earth could be flat.

    • Daria: Carrying an amputated animal foot for good luck is far-fetched. Celestial middle-managers changing the course of human events is ludicrous.

    • Helen: Oh, Daria, must you be so quick to judge? Daria: You're reading a book about cats with wings.

    • (overhearing Quinn talking about her guardian angel) Jane: Guardian angel, huh? Daria: At least he doesn't leave the milk out like when the Trix rabbit was staying with us.

    • Helen: Quinn, is that a book you've got? Daria: Sorry to give away the surprise, but in the end he eats the green eggs and the ham.

    • Jane: I'm giving Tom the night off, I want to spend some time with you. Daria: How long is he out of town? Jane: A week.

    • Max: You guys should come. Trent: We could use the moral support. Jane: All right. But the support will be amoral at best.

    • Quinn: Daria, you shouldn't talk like that. Angels are everywhere. Daria: Ok. Then I'm going to my room. To talk with them about you behind your back.

    • Stacy: You know I was thinking, if people in really poor countries can't get food, does that mean they can't get diet soda either? Tiffany: But then how do they stay thin? Sandi: Stacy, you were what? Stacy: Nothing.

    • Quinn: You shouldn't make fun, Daria. There are some mysteries that are just beyond our knowledge. Daria: Like the fact that the human ego is bloated enough to believe the force that created the universe gives a crap about our blowouts. Quinn: You wouldn't say that if your life were touched by an angel! Daria: No, I'd be too busy suing for sexual harassment.

    • Trent: That doesn't make sense. How can the temperature drop below subzero? Max: What do you mean? Subzero means below zero! Trent: That's what I'm saying. If subzero means below zero, how can it be below subzero?
