I still can't figure out whether Eric is actually serious in the third panel, or just being cunning about convincing his girlfriend to help him.  Probably some of both, but mostly the latter.  I'm pretty sure the "death ray" comment was all for the purposes of Linnea-persuasion, for instance.  I bet he really would ask Daria to help if Linnea refused, but he wouldn't suggest such dire ideas in any seriousness.  Still, it is true that Daria reading about supervillain gadgets would be a dangerous thing!
