Synopsis by Brian J. Dillard

Daria (voice of Tracy Grandstaff) and Quinn (voice of Wendy Hoopes) both get jobs at the mall, with disastrous results, in this episode of the animated MTV series Daria. After a set of school aptitude tests reveals that Quinn is destined to be a neck model and that Daria would make a great mortician, Helen (voice of Wendy Hoopes) orders both of her daughters to expand their horizons and get jobs. Daria finds employment at the nut store owned by one of her dad's clients, while Quinn ends up at a pet shop. Mortified by her cheesy uniform -- and by the fact that big lunkhead Kevin (voice of Marc Thompson) is her coworker -- Daria finds her humiliation compounded when dreamy Trent (voice of Alvaro J. Gonzalez) gets a craving for some nuts and ends up witnessing her in action. Meanwhile, Quinn accidentally lets a boa constrictor loose and must dispatch some of her young suitors to recapture it. All ends well, with both girls out of a job, but not before Helen (voice of Wendy Hoopes) gets the chance to strut her feminist stuff and bawl out Daria's creepy, sexist boss.
