* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Is on the receiving end from the gang after Fez and her get together at a party. Donna's advice to Fez when she saw them the next day was "Sober up, man!". Nonetheless, Fez spent the entire season with her in a surprisingly stable relationship until he got dumped (and, in the moment, even choked) for being too handsy.
