The Lab Brat is the seventh episode of the first season of Daria and the seventh episode of the series overall. It originally aired on MTV on April 14, 1997. For a class project for the man-hating science teacher, Ms. Barch, Daria is paired with jock Kevin (who is more interested in watching football on the Morgendorffers' TV than working with Daria) while Brittany works with resident pervert, Upchuck, who blackmails her under his command.
