Authors note: In "Psycho Therapy" we see Jake talk about his father. But assuming thats not all he did. What else did he and the shrink talk about.

(At the retreat. Jake is in a session with the psychiatrist)

Psychiatrist: I understand your own dad didn't live up to your... expectations. But how do you feel you're doing yourself. As a dad I mean?

Jake: I'm not sure. Often I don't feel I understand my girls.

Psychiatrist: (smiles) Don't worry. There's no shame in not being able to understand a teenage girl.

Jake: But they told me that I suck.

Psychiatrist: They did? When was that?

(Flashback. Morgendorffer livingroom in Highland. Helen is getting ready to leave. Jake is saying goodbye. Daria and Quinn, aged 10 and 9, are watching TV)

Helen: Bye now. See you in a couple of days girls.

Daria: Bye mom.

Quinn: Bye mom. Say hi to Ronald McDonald for me.

Helen: What're you talking about. I'm going to a conference. Not a burger joint.

Quinn: So you're not going to represent Ronald McDonald against the vegetarians?

Helen: Of course I'm not. Who told you such ridiculous lies?

(Helen, Jake and Quinn stare at Daria)

Daria: What?

(Later that evening. Daria is sitting on a chair facing the wall. Quinn and Jake are watching Barney on TV)

TV Barney: So remember kids. Love one another. Especially your brothers and sisters.

Jake: Did you hear that girls?

Daria: I did. But somehow I fail to see how a man wearing a rubber dinosaur costume can count as a role model.

Quinn: I don't care want he says. I won't love Daria. Not when she lies to me all the time. (looks at Daria and sticks her tongue out)

Daria: I wouldn't be lying to you if you didn't believe me. Its not my fault you're so gullible.

Quinn: I know what that means. And its not true. I'm not gullible. Am I dad?

Jake: Of course you're not kiddo.

Quinn: By the way. About that tooth I lost. Do you think the tooth fairy will give me two bucks this time. Its a really pretty tooth you know.

Jake: (sigh) I'll ask her. Now go to bed.

Quinn: Night dad. (runs upstairs)

Daria: Dad, can I watch TV? There is a program on Discovery about maggots.

Jake: Maggots. (shudders) Sorry Daria. But you can't watch TV when you're being punished. We warned you this would happen if you didn't stop lying to Quinn.

Daria: But I'm bored. Can't you have me grounded instead?

Jake: You're to young to get grounded.

Daria: But old enough to be exposed to some medieval punishment.

Jake: Don't be silly. If this was the middle ages I would take a cane and beat you.

(Daria starts crying)

Jake: (ashamed) I'm sorry kiddo. (picks Daria up and hugs her) I didn't mean that. I would newer beat you.

Daria: (stops crying) Dad?

Jake: Yes Daria?

Daria: You suck.

Psychiatrist: Don't you think you're putting to much into this? All children get mad at their parents from time to time.

Jake: Thats what I thought. But the next day Quinn told me the same thing.

Psychiatrist: How so?

(Flashback. Jake is making dinner. Quinn runs over to him)

Quinn: She did it again dad. Daria lied to me again. You have to punish her.

Jake: Calm down Quinn. What did she say?

Quinn: She told me that the president wants to build a shield in outer space to protect us from nuclear missiles. Like I would believe that.

Jake: Um... Thats actually not a lie.

Quinn: You mean you're not going to punish her? You suck dad.
