Daria accidentally snaps her pencil and borrows one from classmate and starting quarterback Kevin, who thinks she is trying to get with him. After he confronts her about it, Daria pretends she likes him just to inflate Kevin's ego by doing several gestures, including leaving love notes in Kevin's locker, getting affectionate with him at the pizza parlor (much to head cheerleader and girlfriend Brittany's chagrin) to coming to his house with a batch of homemade heart-shaped cookies. Finally, Kevin asks Daria out in front of the student body, telling Brittany they are through and Daria that it is her "turn". True to Daria's plan, she turns him down cold. Later, Daria and Jane discuss the ordeal over slices of pizza while Daria explains that Kevin having to put up with her airheaded sister is the best form of revenge she could possibly serve.
